Chapter 113: Two thousand monthly salary!
When Zhao Tiezhu heard the shout, his face suddenly changed and he started to pack his things quickly.
Lu Yiming quickly took two steps back.
Looking at the vendors pushing their carts and running away with clanging sounds, Lu Yiming couldn't help but shake his head slightly and said to Li Yiwen, "Sure enough, they are of the same lineage."
At this moment, a woman's scream pierced the sky, drowning out everyone's noise.
Lu Yiming couldn't help but look towards the source of the sound , only to find that in the chaos, a baby stroller pushed by a young woman had been squeezed out of her hands and, along with the crowded crowd, gradually slid towards the tram track in the middle of the road.
Coincidentally, the sound of ringing bells was heard in the distance.
The tram is coming!
Many people saw this scene.
The next moment, the front of the tram appeared around the corner.
The vendors were busy evading capture by the police.
The thin man was knocked to the ground.
The kind-hearted man looked at the stroller and couldn't help but close his eyes.
No one dared to go up.
On the tram, bells rang loudly.
At this time, the tram was less than ten meters away from the stroller!
At this moment, a figure rushed out from the crowd like an arrow and rushed towards the tram.
When passing by a baby carriage, he firmly grasped the sides of the carriage with both hands, picked it up and walked away.
After a moment, he placed the stroller in front of the almost desperate young woman.
"Your baby."
"Thank you, thank you, thank you so much."
The crowd erupted in cheers and applause.
Lu Yiming said to Li Yiwen: "See? This is called retiring without fading."
Zhao Tiezhu scratched the back of his head in a naive manner. It was obvious that being thanked and praised made him feel a little overwhelmed.
After the tram passed, Zhao Tiezhu crossed the tracks and returned to his stall. He said to the waiting policeman in a relaxed tone, "Sorry, something delayed me."
A policeman in green military uniform waved the thick black electric baton in his hand ferociously and said, "Come with us!"
Zhao Tiezhu did not resist, but there was a hint of desolation in his eyes.
When the people around saw this scene, the smiles on their faces froze.
Some people blended into the crowd and acted as if nothing had happened.
Some people felt distressed but just stood there and watched.
Only the young woman whose baby was lost and found walked over with firm steps and pleaded with the policeman.
But the policemen didn't care about that. They just waved their electric batons and pushed the young woman aside. Then two of them escorted Zhao Tiezhu, two pushed Zhao Tiezhu's cart, and a few others talked and laughed as they ate the braised food in the soup.
The crowd dispersed as if nothing had happened.
It's just that the streets are a lot cleaner.
Zhao Tiezhu was escorted to the detention center and locked up in an iron cage of two or three square meters.
Several police officers wearing dark green police uniforms, conical hats and whistles hung on their chests were walking back and forth in the aisle.
Zhao Tiezhu sat on the ground leaning against the wall and couldn't help sighing.
He has lost all his means of livelihood and is now in prison. He has not paid bail and does not know how long he will be in prison.
Even if they got out, they could only do hard labor at the docks to make a living.
He remembered that when he left home, he had promised his family that he would make a name for himself in the glamorous world of Hong Kong and would send some money home every month.
As a result, now that we have just started...
How easy is it to make a name for yourself?
The vast majority of people in this world are swept away by the tide of the times.
Not everyone can become a trend-setter of the times.
Just when Zhao Tiezhu was daydreaming, the chain on the iron gate was opened, and a police officer said a lot of gibberish, then dragged Zhao Tiezhu out.
Zhao Tiezhu barely understood that what they meant was that someone paid for the bail.
The first thing he thought of was the young mother whose child he had saved.
But after walking out of the police station, Zhao Tiezhu saw Lu Yiming and Li Yiwen.
Zhao Tiezhu seemed very surprised and a little excited. He hesitated for a long time and didn't know what to say. Finally, he uttered two words.
"Thanks."
Lu Yiming smiled and said, "Meeting is fate. There are billions of people on the earth, and we can meet twice in this vast sea of people. It is already a great fate."
"It seems that your stew stall has also been confiscated. What are your plans next?"
Zhao Tiezhu said helplessly: "Just find a part-time job first, you have to eat."
Li Yiwen asked curiously, "You don't speak Cantonese, and it's not easy to find a job in Hong Kong. Have you ever thought about going back to help your uncle?"
Zhao Tiezhu's expression suddenly became serious when he heard this, and he said without hesitation: "I am a retired soldier after all, how could I possibly do such a thing? Even if I starve to death, I will not bring shame to my identity as a soldier!"
Lu Yiming was immediately in awe.
Although Zhao Tiezhu is not very smart, he is a principled man. In this age where money is paramount, there are fewer and fewer people who can stick to principles and bottom lines.
Let's not talk about anything else, just now, according to Zhao Tiezhu's physical strength, if he wanted to run, ten policemen would not be able to catch him. But in order to save an innocent life, he not only ignored the police's arrest, but also put his own life and death aside. You can imagine his character.
Serving the people is something that is engraved in his bones.
Lu Yiming's eyes turned, and he immediately wanted to recruit him. He asked, "Brother Zhao, are you interested in being my bodyguard? I'll pay you 2,000 yuan a month."
He did not say this on a whim, nor did he say it out of pity for Zhao Tiezhu.
He is now worth hundreds of millions, but he dare not bet that someone may be plotting against him secretly.
As the saying goes, a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. The world is not as peaceful and harmonious as it seems.
As a second-generation human being, he has a deep understanding of this.
Zhao Tiezhu didn't expect that Lu Yiming would actually ask him to be a bodyguard.
He thought that he could only earn 20 to 30 yuan a day selling braised pork, exposed to the wind and sun, and risk being driven away by the police at any time . Lu Yiming asked for 2,000 yuan a month, which was considered a high salary for him.
"No, I can't have it, it's too much!"
Lu Yiming said in an unquestionable tone: "Whatever I say is what I give you. Just take it. This is just the basic salary. If you perform well, there will be bonuses!"
When giving money, make sure to give enough. This is Lu Yiming’s philosophy of employing people.
Bodyguards are no different from others. They are needed to help block bullets at critical moments. If you don't pay them enough, who would be willing to risk their lives for you?
Lu Yiming felt that the two thousand yuan was too little.
In the future, as your wealth grows, you must pay attention to your own safety. Otherwise, even if the money is still there but the person is gone, what’s the point?
Then, Lu Yiming asked again: "Do you have any reliable old comrades? I would like to invite a few more."
After hearing this, Zhao Tiezhu's expression gradually became suspicious.
