Chapter 38 The person who collects the mountain goods is 780,000
When we heard the news, Zamao Xiaodao and I were enjoying the breeze in the lawn in front of Kaimin's house.
The fire pit in the main room is burning too brightly, and I am suffering from yang poison. I shouldn't be overheated by the fire. It would be better to stay in the courtyard and enjoy myself.
Kaimin looked at us with some worry and said that that person often came to our place to collect mountain medicinal materials in the past. The business has grown in the past two years, and all his salesmen are assigned, but he doesn’t see much of him today.
When I came to the village, I stayed at the house of Baozi, the king of Houzhai, the same family who slaughtered the pigs last time. When I passed by their house in the afternoon, the man asked questions and seemed to be very interested in you.
Zamao Xiaodao asked Kaimin if he was alone.
Kaimin nodded and said yes. The man arrived in the afternoon and would probably open the scale to receive the goods tomorrow. He was alone. Zamao Xiaodao nodded and didn't care. He just asked Kaimin to tell his family to be more careful and not to spread rumors.
Min agreed, and Kaimin's mother asked him to do something, so he left. Seeing Kaimin leave, I asked Zamao Xiaodao, what should we do?
Zamao laughed and said that he should not be frightened. He should have a better psychological quality and be in panic all day long. If the person is not caught but his spirit is broken, then he will suffer a loss. However, Kaimin's reminder is also reasonable. In the past two days, he must
Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Tiger Cat, please pay more attention to him on the way into the mountains. Anyway, our terrain has been explored for many days, and when the time comes to run, we are not afraid of being unable to escape.
I sighed and said that running away was no problem, but it was just a waste of the identity that Yang Cao had worked so hard to prepare for us. If it weren't for the yang poison in me, we would have taken a train or a plane directly to the border that day, and we would have been abroad, free and easy.
.
Zamao Xiaodao laughed and said, "You, you, you just like to feel sorry for yourself. You don't even think about it. The pile of things on us and that can expose the target. How can we get on the plane? Yang Cao's arrangement can at most make us
We are going through this most dangerous period, just be more prepared. I thought about it, yes, and then asked the mountain goods merchant who was randomly asking about us, if he wanted to confirm it?
Zamao Xiaodao shook his head and said, forget it, what's so interesting about a mushroom harvester?
Both of us gave up the idea of looking for the sneaky guy, but the guy came to our door on his own around eight o'clock in the evening.
This is a middle-aged man with small eyes, a big head, and a friendly smile on his face. We recognized Wang Baozi who brought him here. When we saw the two of us squatting on the dirt floor of Kaimin's house, we came up to him.
He came to say hello, exchange a few words, and introduce us to the middle-aged man next to him: "Xiao Wang, Xiao Lin, this is a powerful person in our county, Wang Tao, he heard that there are two people from outside the mountain in our village, so he
Come and have a look, maybe you know each other; if you don’t, you might want to make a friend..."
When I heard the word Wang Tao, I was shocked and subconsciously glanced at the Zamao Trail.
It was rare that this guy stretched out his hand without changing his expression and greeted Wang Tao with a strong Trump tone. He said yes, it was a great honor, but the two of us were just idlers with nothing to do and wanted to live in the mountains for a few days.
Boss Wang is incomparable.
Wang Tao chatted with us enthusiastically for a few words. When Kaimin's father saw guests coming and going, he called them into the main room and chatted around the firepit.
Wang Tao told us that business has been too busy recently, the goods are insufficient, and one of his men has family troubles, so he came to the mountains. There is no nightlife in the village in the mountains. He loves to make friends. I heard that
There are two people from outside the mountains in Kaimin's family. It's better to come over and communicate than to lie in bed and sleep until dawn. At this point, Wang Tao joked with us and said, "Brothers, you guys are also coming in to collect goods from the mountains."
Right? Colleagues are enemies...
We all shook our heads and laughed, saying no, who dares to go against you, Boss Wang?
Wang Tao is worthy of being a businessman. He is indeed very eloquent. He talks nonsense all over the world, constantly leads the topic, and then quietly explores our details.
However, he is powerful, and he is not weak at all. These days, when facing outsiders, he is accustomed to talking like Trump. Moreover, he has dealt with Wang Tao before, and he knows himself and the enemy, so he naturally knows how to deal with it.
While they were talking, I rarely interrupted. I was always wondering, was Wang Tao entering the mountain intentional or unintentional?
As a mountain goods dealer, he is naturally well-informed. He must know that Zamao Xiaodao and I are wanted, and he happens to know Zamao Xiaodao. I asked Zamao Xiaodao that day, and he told
Wang Tao and I are just casual acquaintances, fair-weather friends. So, will this fair-weather friend get the news and come to the mountains to look for us because of the huge sum of 400,000 yuan?
We don’t know whether Wang Tao’s trip is malicious or well-intentioned. We only know that this old boy is interrogating us, which makes us very unhappy. However, Zamao Xiaodao has been dealing with it, and it has not revealed too many flaws. For Kaimin
Our parents, Wang Tao, was naturally the big boss, so they warmed some wine, poured us a few bowls, and drank warmly to each other.
We were chatting and laughing, but I felt that the mask on my face was getting dryer and drier. Although there was only the light from the fire pit, I couldn't help but feel anxious. I turned my head and took two sips of wine, pretending to be too drunk.
He was sliding backwards diagonally. Seeing my appearance, Zamao Xiaodao naturally knew it, and then apologized to Wang Tao, saying that Wang Li likes to drink, but his alcohol capacity is small, so I would send him back to his room to rest.
Upon hearing this, Wang Tao and Wang Baozi, who had come with him, said a few polite words and stood up to leave.
When I returned to the room, I wiped away my drunken state and called out Duoduo, asking her to follow the two people to listen to what they were saying. Duoduo blinked her big watery eyes and nodded excitedly,
Then his body became lighter and flew out of the window.
Duoduo went out at ten o'clock and came back at midnight. She listened very carefully and did not dare to miss a word. However, the summary was not good, and it was difficult for this child who was less than ten years old from birth to death. We struggled to listen.
After a while, I realized that Wang Tao and Wang Baozi didn't say anything to us after they returned, but were preparing for tomorrow's delivery, then washed up and fell asleep.
Even so, we still felt threatened. You know, Wang Tao has a lot of contacts. If he really made a move, I'm afraid we might be exposed. I discussed it with Zamao Xiaodao and found out that this mountain is not safe.
Well, we still have to move. As for where to go, it has to be southern Yunnan.
Why? First, it’s close to the border, and second, we’re fairly familiar with the terrain there.
Just these two points make it worth the risk of being predicted.
It has been almost a month since we started running away, and the atmosphere has begun to dilute, and there is no possibility of a large-scale manhunt. This is a good thing, but I learned from the mouths of Ma Ganer Lao Hu and Zhao Xingrui that there will be
There is a special team to arrest us, there must be a gathering of experts there, and it will be sufficiently targeted.
That night, I discussed it with Zamao Xiaodao. When I woke up the next morning, I had baked potatoes for breakfast. I didn’t see Kaimin and his parents. I asked Guoguo who was diligently washing clothes at the door. She told us,
Her brother and her parents went to Wang Baozi's house in Houzhai. There was a person from outside the mountain collecting mountain goods. The price was the same as what was sold outside, so they all went there to get some goods from the mountain in exchange for some New Year money.
.After she washed her clothes, she also wanted to go and see it. It was very lively.
We didn't know if it was okay, so we went back to the room to pack our things. Seeing us like this, Guoguo was shocked, rubbed her arms that were red from the cold, came into the room and grabbed us, asking what was going on? We said we were disturbing these things.
It's sunny, we have something to do at home, so we are ready to go out.
If Guo Guo refuses to give in, didn’t you say we agreed to celebrate the New Year together?
The little girl's eyes turn red when she talks. We get along very well these days. She is very fond of Zamao Xiaodao and thinks that this big brother is very capable and can teach her many things. When we joke, Zamao Xiaodao is still proud of
He told me that this was the first time that he was more likely to be a lolita than me.
We couldn't say much about Guoguo's child's character. When Kaimin and others returned home, I mentioned it to them again.
Kaimin's parents naturally tried their best to persuade her to stay, but Kaimin knew about Wang Tao's arrival, which made us want to leave. So he persuaded his parents and sister in turn, asking when to leave, and he would see us off. I asked Kaimin
, When will Wang Tao leave? Kaimin said tomorrow. He will receive the goods today. After that, he will hire a few people to help him pick the goods down the mountain. It should be tomorrow morning.
I nodded and said let's do it tomorrow morning, so that we can have company together.
After the matter was settled, we started to pack our things. Guoguo looked miserable all day long, with red eye circles, like a little tail, following us around. After living here for more than half a month, we both had feelings for each other.
We also felt bad. In the evening, Kaimin's mother cooked us a very sumptuous dinner, which was almost in accordance with the standards of a New Year's Eve dinner, including wine, meat, and some food we had brought from the mountains a few days ago.
A blue sheep was also purchased for Kaimin’s mother.
Kaimin's father still didn't talk much. He held a bowl of corn wine and said to us: "Xiao Lin, Xiao Wang, you two are people who are doing great things. You think highly of my Kaimin, so you live in our mountain valley."
After living for so long, I can’t talk about it. In my heart, I’m happy for Kaimin to have friends like you! There is a saying among the Han people that there is no such thing as a banquet in the world. I, a countryman, have a stupid mouth and don’t know how to entertain guests.
, so let’s do it first!”
We drank a lot that day, and Kaimin and his father were very drunk. The next morning, while Guoguo didn't get up, we quietly left the village, preparing to go out of the mountain first.
