Chapter 20 Let's see who is more ruthless
"Ouch!"
"It hurts me so much, can you please be gentle?"
Wu Qingshan's head was covered with sweat. He had been calling like this for almost a stick of incense. Old Wu looked away with disdain.
"You brat can bark better than the pigs I killed."
Wu Qingshan retorted: "Dad, this time I fought against those bastards and saved the goods. I acted very bravely, right?"
Jiang Chen smiled and said: "Since you are so brave, why are you shouting so much now? When I found you in the middle of the night last night, I didn't see you saying a word?"
"That's because I was so nervous at the time that I couldn't even feel the pain in my hands."
"I think you're too scared. It's so dangerous." Wu Yue, who was changing Jiang Chen's dressing, looked distressed and a little want to laugh at the same time.
Her younger brother is not bad in nature, but he has been wasting his time doing nothing. If it weren't for Jiang Chen's help, there's no telling how long he would have been doing nothing like this.
Now that this kid has finally found a serious job and has shown such a brave side, Wu Yue and Lao Wu, as family members, feel happy in their hearts.
"Hey, uncle, we are all resting now, what about the delivery tonight? Otherwise, I can go with you, and one of my arms won't be in the way."
Although Wu Qingshan took the initiative to ask for help, Jiang Chen had already made plans and told him to just have a good rest and not worry about those things.
Before leaving, Wu Yue handed Jiang Chen a lacquered wooden food box. When he opened it, he saw that it contained freshly cooked dumplings, which were still steaming out.
"Yesterday you didn't bother to have a hot bite. Today I just want to make a new one for you. Remember to eat it early."
Feeling Wu Yue's deep affection for him, Jiang Chen said with emotion: "It seems that I have accumulated a lot of merit in my past few lives."
"Eh? How do you know?"
"Otherwise, how could I be lucky enough to marry such a beautiful and virtuous wife like you?"
Wu Yue landed a small pink fist on Jiang Chen's chest, but said with concern: "Stop talking so much, remember to be careful tonight!"
"Well, don't worry, they are the ones who will be unlucky today."
Arriving at the brewing yard, Jiang Chen finished eating the dumplings made by Wu Yue with great satisfaction. At this time, the night outside gradually became darker.
Gu Jun stood at the door, observing the movements around him very vigilantly. After what happened yesterday, everyone became extra cautious.
Jiang Chen said: "The time is just right, let's load up the car and set off!"
Today he will personally lead the team to safely deliver three hundred altars of Jiang Yuebai to Zuixian Tower without losing a single altar!
"Were those people from Lin Yuanzhou or Lin Lidong yesterday?"
"It's Zhao He. The two Lin family brothers are fighting fiercely. They have no time to pay attention to us for the time being. Only that old fox Zhao He would think of robbing our goods."
"As long as we are unable to deliver goods in time, we will offend those wealthy businessmen and gentry, and things will not end well by then. It is very likely that Jiang Yuebai's golden brand will be damaged. That is the kind of result he wants to see."
Gu Jun said: "This bastard is so treacherous. Let's deal with him properly!"
"There will be a chance."
Soon after, the first batch of goods was successfully loaded, and Jiang Chen and others set out on the road to Zuixian Tower. The journey from the west to the east of the city was not short, because everyone was very energetic.
To prevent being suddenly attacked by the opponent midway.
Gu Jun observed the surroundings along the way and said to Jiang Chen: "They didn't succeed yesterday, so they may not come again today, because they know that we will be prepared in advance this time to guard against them!"
"Zhao He won't care about this. He only wants to destroy Jiang Yuebai, and I don't think he can swallow this breath, so let's wait."
At this time, the motorcade turned into a secluded alley, and the surroundings were unusually quiet. Even the occasional barking of dogs could not be heard at all here.
Due to the limited width of the alley, two carriages were not allowed to drive side by side, so the fleet could only file in and march forward in a queue in this somewhat narrow alley.
Jiang Chen and Gu Jun looked at each other. If the other party planned to take action, then this would be the best choice. In the middle of last night, Wu Qingshan and the others had a fierce battle with the other party not far ahead.
"Hush!"
As the carriage running at the front stopped suddenly, Jiang Chen knew that the highlight of the night was about to take place.
"What are you doing, stay out of the way!"
A group of masked men dressed in black appeared, which was exactly the same as Wu Qingshan's description. They were the ones who attacked the convoy last night and injured so many people. If Wu Qingshan and the others hadn't resisted desperately, the shipment would have been destroyed.
.
Jiang Chen and Gu Jun were about to walk to the front when they suddenly discovered that another wave of enemies appeared from behind the convoy.
What is different from the situation last night is that the number of people dispatched by the other party tonight is more than twice that of yesterday. It can be seen that they are bound to win and will never let Jiang Chen and the others get through here easily.
"I've taught you a lesson, but you still dare to transport goods today. Do you think you have a long life?"
The leading masked man held a sword in his hand, and the accomplices behind him also had shining white weapons in their hands. Everything showed that they would only be more ferocious and spicy than yesterday.
"Okay, let's see who has the sharper knife. I'm still afraid of you!"
Before Jiang Chen could say anything, one of the guys standing at the front pulled out a knife from the carriage, and the others did the same, with weapons instantly revealed in everyone's hands.
Gu Jun smiled slightly and said, "It really suits their taste to ask them for this kind of thing."
The two sides didn't say anything and just went head-to-head. Jiang Chen and Gu Jun just stood aside and watched the battle. It could be said that the situation in front of them was under control, but they didn't have the chance to take action.
The masked leader, who had been leading the arrogant attack just now, was beaten back by his opponent. The white sword almost hit his head, frightening him so hard that his face turned pale and he screamed repeatedly.
Unexpectedly, despite having a huge numerical advantage, they collapsed at the first touch, and each one of them was beaten to the point of running around in a panic.
They were just helpers in front of them, how could their fighting power suddenly become so strong?
No matter how hard they thought about this answer, they would not get the answer, because they were being killed so badly that they dropped their weapons and ran away.
Jiang Chen had expected such a result and was not surprised at all.
Gu Jun inspected the carriage and said, "The wine is all intact."
"Okay, keep going."
Although Zhao He tried his best this time, how could he have expected that Jiang Chen would actually call the bandits on Hutou Mountain to help. These vicious guys pretended to be helpers and faced off against the masked men.
