Volume 1: Little People Return 2014 Chapter 003: Idiot Deng Rong
Soon, Zhou Dongsheng and Qiu Zijian drove their electric car to their destination, a residential area called Xintiandi, and soon saw Deng Bin's Audi A4 parked in front of a building.
After parking the electric bike aside, the two of them walked upstairs. They pressed the floor horn at the door, and soon Xu Yun's voice was heard.
"Open the door, we're here." Qiu Zijian said.
The doorbell rang, Zhou Dongsheng opened the door, and the two walked upstairs. When they reached the third floor and opened the door, it was already very lively inside.
There were several people sitting in the living room, including several men besides Dunbin, who were chatting.
"Brazil will definitely win the World Cup tonight. The suspense lies in how many goals they win." Dunbin said comfortably while lying on the sofa.
"What are you talking about? If Brazil loses, I will treat you to midnight snacks for a month." said a dark-skinned young man.
"Now that Guozai said that, I kind of look forward to Brazil losing hahahaha..."
Except for Deng Bin and Guozai, Zhou Dongsheng couldn't recognize the others, but he would not be wrong to call them all "brother".
The two found a place to sit down, while the women in the kitchen were busy preparing dinner. Qiu Zijian interrupted impatiently and asked, "If Brazil wins, how much will the 1:1 odds be?"
"Hey, Abin, you really led this little brother astray. It's only been a few months, but he's been smoking and drinking a lot, and now he's betting on football. What's missing..." An elder brother smiled narrowly and said while counting on his fingers.
"This is none of my business. He learned it all by himself. If you are interested, take him to try meat." Deng Bin looked helpless.
"That's great. Maybe I can even get a red envelope for the virgin chicken. Hahaha..."
Everyone made fun of Qiu Zijian, but Qiu Zijian didn't get angry and continued to inquire about the odds with great interest.
"Hey, how much spare money do you have? Just buy from me, Brother Tao. I'll compensate you if you win, and don't try to cheat if you lose. How about that?" an old man tempted.
Qiu Zijian looked tempted, and it was obvious that he could not resist the temptation. After a brief pause, they returned to the main topic.
"What do you say? I bet on a few goals tonight. I think the first game will just be a warm-up, 2-0 or 2-1."
" You underestimated the five-star Brazil, didn't you? With Neymar, Brazil has the potential to be champions this year. I think a 3-0 victory is a sure thing."
"Then I'll bet on Brazil 3-1, I'll bet a hundred dollars. How about that? If they win, I'll treat you guys to a midnight snack." Deng Bin pushed his glasses and revealed the secret.
"Well, I'll just bet 100 yuan on Croatia to upset. The odds are 11 to 1, and it's a heart-pounding game."
Upon hearing the odds, Qiu Zijian's eyes lit up, "I want to bet on Croatia, fifty dollars!"
It was obvious that Qiu Zijian knew nothing about football. He was simply tempted by the odds and his words caused everyone to laugh.
Qiu Zijian was extremely serious. He took out a handful of money from his pocket. Apart from a fifty-yuan note, there were only a ten-yuan note and a few one-yuan notes left.
"Brother Tao, come here, here's my fifty dollars." He handed it over.
"Think carefully, fifty dollars is enough for you to buy a few packs of cigarettes." Brother Tao advised cheerfully.
"What's there to be afraid of? If I win, I'll smoke Zhonghua. If I lose, I can still smoke Mudan." While speaking, Qiu Zijian also cast his eyes on the several packs of Zhonghua cigarettes on the coffee table.
"Okay, you're a courageous kid. I'll reward you with one cigarette first. If you win tonight, you'll get a pack of Zhonghua cigarettes tomorrow." Brother Tao picked up the Zhonghua cigarettes on the coffee table and spread them around.
Deng Bin lit a cigarette and did not stop him. He looked at Qiu Zijian with a smile, looking forward to what .
The other people also treated Qiu Zijian as a joke, and the dark-skinned Guozai even turned around and asked Zhou Dongsheng.
"How about it, Dongsheng, are you interested in buying some? Brother Guo will be the banker for you and I will guarantee the compensation."
Zhou Dongsheng smiled shyly, "No, Brother Guo, I'll just watch the fun."
Although these bosses would not eat up his small capital, Zhou Dongsheng still chose regular sports lottery software. After all, he was not buying just this once.
Tonight's is just the appetizer, the real dish is yet to come. I just don't know what the odds of 7-1 are?
"This boy is really honest. By the way, Abin, why don't I see your brother?" Guozai then remembered that there was one person missing.
"I guess he played games at home all day again..." When mentioning his younger brother, Deng Bin showed an indescribable expression.
"Hahaha, your brother is really lucky. He has parents who love him and a brother like you to back him up. I wish he could be half as free as him."
"Don't mention it, I have a headache." Deng Bin said helplessly.
Zhou Dongsheng, who was standing by, then remembered that his boss had a younger brother who was lazy and idle, with a very bad personality and always looking for trouble...
"It's time to eat, let's clear the table."
"Okay, let's play a few rounds of mahjong after dinner. You were lucky last night. You won a hand of Thirteen Yao and ran away. Tonight I will make you vomit it all out." The dark-skinned Guozai said harshly.
"The Shipwreck Country is bragging again. Every time you say that, it's you who ends up with the ship sunk!" Brother Tao laughed.
"I don't care. We have to watch the game anyway, so just play casually." Deng Bin smiled indifferently.
Qiu Zijian on the side showed a longing expression. He could watch football, play mahjong, stay up all night happily, and sleep until noon. The life of these bosses was so desirable.
Zhou Dongsheng remembered that he had also worked hard to achieve such a life. Although he did not reach such a height in the end, he heard from his relatives that Deng Bin's family sold their property in Chuncheng to pay off their debts and returned home to work.
This also made Zhou Dongsheng suddenly understand a saying circulating on the Internet: "The gift of fate has already been secretly marked with a price."
It is quite simple as our ancestors said: We are born in adversity and die in comfort.
After dinner, Zhou Dongsheng took Xu Yun home first. Qiu Zijian disappeared again after dinner, probably going to some Internet cafe to play again.
Deng Bin and his sister-in-law naturally would not go home so early. After all, they were not the hard-working workers who had to get up in the morning to open the store.
When I got home, the lights were on. When I opened the door, I was greeted by the smell of instant noodles. A fat figure ran out barefoot from the inner room.
"Hey, you're back? Where are my brother and the others?" He scratched his head while speaking. His fat face was shiny and covered with pimples. His eyes behind the lenses were mischievous, and the whole person gave people a very uncomfortable impression.
In stark contrast to Deng Bin’s bookish temperament, this is Deng Bin’s younger brother, Deng Rong.
Compared to the successful Deng Bin, Deng Rong is a complete negative example. As the youngest son in the family, he is doted on by his parents and protected by his elder brother. He is carefree and the only thing on his mind is play.
"They are at Brother Guo's place. I'm going to take a shower first." Xu Yun responded casually.
"That's great. Dongsheng, please help me buy some things. I'm too lazy to go down." Deng Rong ordered as a matter of course.
"I'm tired after a busy day. You go by yourself." Zhou Dongsheng spread his hands and wanted to walk inside.
A series of strange things about this guy also came to my mind. Apart from being lazy and idle, he always liked to boss people around in the store and order them around.
Maybe in his eyes, he is the boss's younger brother, which makes him half the boss, while Zhou Dongsheng and Qiu Zijian are just two workers, and he can order them around however he wants.
Qiu Zijian had conflicts with Deng Rong more than once, but due to the huge difference in their sizes, he was always bullied by Deng Rong. Deng Rong also enjoyed the feeling of bullying others.
This is also one of the reasons why Qiu Zijian always likes to sneak out at night. If he can't afford to offend, can't he just hide?
But now that Qiu Zijian is not here, Zhou Dongsheng has become the target.
"Huh? I can't call you, right? You can't even help me buy something?" Deng Rong grabbed Zhou Dongsheng's arm and said in a bad tone.
"You really can't make me stop, so let go of your hand." Zhou Dongsheng looked down at Deng Rong, who was a whole head shorter than him, without any fear.
Zhou Dongsheng was 1.83 meters tall and looked down at Deng Rong. Deng Rong was overwhelmed by his aura and subconsciously let go of his hand.
In his previous life, Zhou Dongsheng, who was an honest man, suffered a lot because he was in awe of the other party's boss's brother and was living under someone else's roof.
But now Zhou Dongsheng really doesn't take this bully seriously. For a salary of a thousand yuan, does he expect him to work like a slave?
As long as Deng Rong dared to take action, Zhou Dongsheng would not mind giving him a beating to vent the humiliation he suffered in his previous life, but unfortunately Deng Rong did not have the courage.
Zhou Dongsheng turned around and went back to his room with great regret.
"What's wrong with this kid? Why did he suddenly become so tough?" Deng Rong muttered, looking a little surprised.
Deng Rong, who was used to picking on the weak, was a little overwhelmed by Zhou Dongsheng's sudden toughness. Fortunately, there was no one around, otherwise he would have been so embarrassed.
Deng Rong returned to his room in a bad mood, not wanting to buy anything anymore. After a while, the sound of gunfire rang out in the room. He seemed to be unsatisfied and deliberately turned up the volume of the speakers...
