The Life of a Gangster That Started In a Gun Shop

Kang En's son has not been discharged from the hospital, so naturally his wife is accompanying him in the hospital. On this visit, Conn's home was empty. After receiving the Marine Corps uniform from Conn, Ye Qing left with Benjamin's repeated thanks.

"Hey, Ye. Let's go to the camera first. Don't delay your business because of me."

After coming out of Conn's house, Benjamin looked at the time on his watch and said. Anyway, the old tailor he was familiar with would not close for a while, and now he has solved the most crucial issue of dress. Feeling very relaxed.

"Okay, then let's go, we have to hurry on the road."

Ye Qing nodded, took Benjamin to the car quickly, and drove towards the city center. But things can sometimes develop like a naughty child, often unsatisfactory.

Under the hurry, the two of them still came a step late. Looking at a rolling shutter between the Nikon camera and his target, Ye Qing shrugged helplessly.

"It seems that we are a step late, let's go. We need your guidance for the next destination."

"I'm very sorry, Ye. Because of my business, your business was delayed."

Benjamin patted his forehead angrily when he saw the rolling shutter door lowered. He seemed very embarrassed to apologize to Ye Qing.

"It doesn't matter, in fact, it doesn't delay anything. For me, the difference between getting the camera one day earlier and getting it one day later is not very big."

Ye Qing handed a smiling face to the young man beside him who was blushing because of embarrassment. Immediately, he started the pickup indifferently, and followed Benjamin's guidance and drove towards the distant block.

Although Ye Qing has never been a soldier, look at the interaction between Conn and Benjamin. Ye Qing also knew in his heart how meaningful the award and graduation ceremony was for a new officer. Ye Qing was actually very happy to be able to help in this regard. Perhaps this is the so-called "give roses, the hand has a fragrance"?

Thinking of the graduation ceremony, Ye Qing couldn't help but think of herself. At that time, when I came to the Silver Eagle Federation, I only had one year of school leave. It has been two months now, when the time is up, what should I do?

Ye Qing was a little unwilling to give up her studies. I'm halfway through college, and it's always a bit of a shame to drop out. But if you want to go back and continue your studies, what about business and system tasks?

While thinking about this tangled question, Ye Qing drove the car to the place Benjamin directed.

At the edge of a slightly narrow alley, Ye Qing saw the sign of the tailor's shop. "Bowman's Tailor's Shop", an unremarkable name. But the decoration in the store made Ye Qing's eyes shine.

Under the dim-yellow warm light, the brown-red imitation wood grain wall, the counter with the same pattern, and a long workbench. It is covered with bohemian-style fabrics, and even the entire store is mostly bohemian-style fabrics.

"Old Portman! Old Portman, you must have not rested, right?!"

As soon as the store door was opened, Benjamin started yelling. It is not difficult to see that he and the boss here should be quite familiar.

"Come, come. Xiaojieming? It's so late, why are you here with me if you don't accompany your mother?"

As the words settled down, Ye Qing saw a white-haired old man walking downstairs slowly in the cabinet upstairs of the shop. Although her hair was grey, her hair was meticulously groomed. He was wearing a large brown suit with a relatively old version, with a lot of vest lined inside. Next to the reading glasses frame on the bridge of the nose, a chain naturally hangs down to the back collar.

What a spirited old gentleman!

"Please, Uncle Portman, help me change this dress. You know, tomorrow is the ceremony early in the morning."

"Oh? Didn't you look down on your uncle Boman's craftsmanship at the beginning? Now you're begging me?!"

Old Portman laughed and joked when he saw the dress Benjamin was holding. Although he said it rudely, he took the dress from Benjamin's hands in time and spread it on the workbench. At this time, Old Portman also saw Ye Qing.

"Is this your friend or a classmate? Um...how is this a non-commissioned officer dress? Sergeant, land combat skill badge, sniper skill badge...Hey Benjamin, tell me honestly, is this dress yours? stolen?"

After unfolding the folded dress, old Portman's complexion suddenly changed. From a kind and kind old man to abruptly severe, he looked very angry.

"No, when did Benjamin do that. This is the owner of a new gun shop over there in Torrance, Ye, who is also my friend. This dress belongs to an employee in his shop. After hearing about my situation, it was given to me."

Benjamin first introduced Ye Qing to Old Portman, and then slowly explained his situation to Old Portman. After seeing the latter's expression soften, Ye Qing opened her mouth to testify. He said he could call Conn now for confirmation if needed.

"You don't need to make a phone call. I grew up watching this kid Benjamin. I also believe that he won't do theft. I thank you and Mr. Conn for your help. Please sit down for a while. Just wait a moment, I'll go look for the trim, and the badges corresponding to Benjamin's identity."

Old Portman leaned slightly towards Ye Qing, and then slowly walked up the stairs to the attic.

"Sit down, Ye. I'm guessing it will take a while. Will this affect things in your shop? It's really bothering you today."

"It's okay, many guests are eating now. It's okay to go back later. And to tell you the truth, we've only opened for two days, and so far we haven't sold a single gun."

Ye Qing followed Benjamin to find a stool and sat down, then said with a smile. Soon, Ye Qing was attracted by the photos hanging on the wall of the tailor shop.

There is nothing strange about the content of the photos, they are all photos of clothes. In addition to bohemian-style robes, scarves, shirts, there are more formal suits. Just looking at the wide version, there is no doubt that it is from the hands of old Bowman.

But in every photo, the angle chosen is very good. Under the contrast of lights, sunlight, and the background, it is full of retro flavor. It seems that every photo is artificially added with the most suitable filter. It is classical, but without that pedantic feeling, the sensory experience brought to Ye Qing is very wonderful. If I had to describe it in one word, it might only be elegant.

Yes, in a photo, on a suit jacket, Ye Qing could feel the word "elegance". Graceful!

"Ye, aren't these photos good?"

Benjamin stood beside Ye Qing at some point and looked at these photos as well. Mouth said.

"Of course, these pictures are fantastic. Are these old Portman's?"

"Yes, old Portman used to be a military reporter. Tailoring is just his hobby, as if he insists on making old-fashioned suits. This is undoubtedly not in line with the trend of the times."
