"Story" Jiujiang Catch the Thief

In May 1994, Chen Qian, who was teaching at Donghua Normal School, went to Wuhan to attend an academic conference. Mr. Chen has long been engaged in the research of early childhood education, has a little fame in the academic community, and often publishes his research results at conferences held by various preschool education academic groups in China. This time, he went to Wuhan to participate in a special academic conference on children's art creativity. After asking the school leaders for instructions, he decided to stop by some kindergarten normal schools for inspection, and he decided to take a boat from Dalian to Shanghai, go to Nanchang, Jiujiang and other places to investigate and then go to Wuhan. At that time, the level of reimbursement was paid attention to by plane, so Teacher Chen decided to travel by boat. From Dalian to Shanghai to sail two nights and one day, the reason why Teacher Chen wants to take a boat is actually to realize a dream of watching the sunrise on the sea.

The ship sailed overnight, and the next morning there were many people on the deck who wanted to see the sunrise over the sea. Mr. Chen learned a text of "Sunrise on the Sea" when he was in elementary school, and the beautiful description of the sunrise on the sea in the text made him very unforgettable. Since then, he has always wanted to see the sunrise at sea, but he has never been able to achieve this wish. Today the weather is sunny, and it is estimated that you will definitely see a beautiful sunrise over the sea.

The sea in the morning is very calm, the sea ripples in the morning light, very empty. The sky was getting brighter, and at the junction of the sea and sky in the east, a few wisps of red light suddenly rose from the water, dyeing a bunch of clouds orange. The red cloud grew larger and larger, and gradually the large red cloud suddenly separated from the seawater, and a moon bud-like orange-red patch of light rose from the water.

The rising sun halo, like a girl's red lips, like red onyx, crystal clear. The sea turned red, and the red waves gradually expanded in the direction of the ship, and the sky and water were red. After a while, the water rose up half a round of red sun, half of the water, half of the sky, countless rainbows dot the sky brilliantly and colorfully. The clouds a little farther away from the sun became colorful, orange red, fiery red, bruise, and some white and red. No wonder the poet is willing to use the seven colors of "red orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple" to exaggerate when describing the rainbow, and the morning glow is far from being summarized by the seven colors, and can only be praised in one word, "beauty"!

Most of the sun rose, shining brightly and dazzlingly. People had to stare at the distance with their eyes sewn. That round of red sun was inadvertently jumped off the sea and hung in the air. The afterglow of the newly rising red sun is like a red sea water following the sun away from the sea. There are thousands of colors in the air, and the golden light in the water shines.

The deck was crowded, and people rushed to take pictures of this beautiful scenery with their cameras. There are many people who take commemorative photos against the sun, which is not very dazzling, against the morning sun. A young girl dressed in red leaned against the side of the ship, stretched her arms toward the rising sun, and softly chanted "The east is red, the sun is rising...".

The sun rises, the sun shines golden waves, the girls chant, and tourists take pictures, which makes people think infinitely.

After inspecting a kindergarten normal school in Shanghai and exchanging scientific research information with the Soong Ching Ling Education Foundation, Mr. Chen went to Jiujiang. It was raining the day he disembarked, and he bought a pair of plastic sandals to put on at a stall on the dock. Who knows, after walking hundreds of meters in the rain, the shoes will break. It turned out that this was a fake plastic sandal from Wenzhou, and from that day on, Teacher Chen no longer bought Wenzhou products.

After completing the inspection of Jiujiang, Teacher Chen went to the dock the next day to wait for the boat. Who knows, the dock has posted a notice of the ship's delay. There were still more than three hours to go before they could board the boat, and Mr. Chen wandered around the dock.

A young woman carrying a load of bananas and selling them said to Teacher Chen, "Bananas are cheap, can you buy them?" ”

"How much?"

"One dollar a pound".

More than an hour later, Teacher Chen met this young woman again, and there was another woman beside her, one fat and one thin. Only a large bunch of bananas remained in the young woman's burden. The fat woman asked Teacher Chen: "This bunch of bananas is five cents a pound, can you buy it?" ”

The price was too tempting, and Teacher Chen said, "Bought it." ”

The two women immediately stepped forward, and after weighing the bananas, the thin woman said, "11 pounds, 6 yuan." ”

Teacher Chen took out a ten-yuan ticket and handed it to her, and inadvertently a few hundred-dollar bills in her bag were revealed. At this time, the hundred-dollar bill was similar in color to the ten-dollar bill, and it was blue.

The fat woman took out a bag of change and said, "Sir, can you help me exchange this change for a hundred dollars?" Anyway, you are also on a business trip, and you can spend it very quickly. ”

Teacher Chen took out a hundred-dollar bill and handed it to her, taking the change she handed over. When Teacher Chen reached for the banana, the thinner woman said, "Sir, wait a minute, I'll weigh the banana again and see if it's bad?" ”

Teacher Chen withdrew his hand and said, "Didn't you weigh it just now?" What else is it called? ”

The fat woman changed her face and said, "Don't change the money, give it back to you, you give it back to me." ”

Teacher Chen handed her the bag of change with some puzzlement, and the fat woman handed a rolled blue bill to Teacher Chen, and he put it into his wallet.

Teacher Chen said, "If you don't change it, don't change it, I took the banana." ”

The fat woman said, "Bananas are not for sale." She returned the ten yuan she had just received to Teacher Chen, picked up the burden and left.

Teacher Chen suddenly grabbed the burden and said, "Wait a minute, I'll see what happened to the money you just gave me?" With that, he opened his wallet and found the rolled-up bill.

The fat woman hurriedly said, "Sir, I'm sorry, I just gave you the wrong money." With that, she handed over a hundred-dollar bill.

Teacher Chen took out the rolled-up banknote from his wallet and looked at it, and it turned out to be a ten-yuan bill. The two women took advantage of the similar color characteristics of the ten-dollar and hundred-dollar bills to provoke Teacher Chen and try to steal the beams and exchange them for pillars in an attempt to cheat money.

Teacher Chen shouted, "It turns out that you two are liars!" ”

As soon as Teacher Chen's voice fell, the two women ran separately, and in the blink of an eye, they ran out for more than 100 meters. Teacher Chen was good at running, and he chased after the fat woman. After chasing for about a kilometer or two, I finally caught up with the woman. He took a few steps behind the woman, put his finger on her back, and shouted, "Run me and stab you!" ”

The fat woman did not look back, she pleaded: "Big brother, you let me go, I will give you money." ”

"Money? I have to send you to the Public Security Bureau today. Teacher Chen said breathlessly.

Suddenly, the woman shouted loudly in the local language, and many people were quickly surrounded. It is estimated that she must have used the local language to deceive the locals to prevent Teacher Chen from sending her to the public security organs.

When Teacher Chen was in trouble, a group of elementary school students wearing red scarves came over. He shouted, "Classmates, my uncle has arrested a bad woman, I want to take her to the police station, can you help me?" ”

The elementary school students immediately gathered around and said, "Uncle, we will take you." ”

At the police station, the policeman on duty told Teacher Chen: "This kind of woman specializes in selling bananas to defraud tourists of money, and we locals call this kind of fraud 'drifting'." ”

After handing over the scammer to the police, Teacher Chen left the Public Security Bureau, and seeing the Young Pioneers still standing in front of the police station, Teacher Chen thought: These primary school students are so cute!
