Chapter 145. Qian Feng and Gunzu are waiting to take off
Zhao Youcai continued to feed the dog, while Zhao Jun went into the house to pack his things and prepare to go up the mountain for a siege.
Seeing Zhao Jun coming back, Wang Meilan asked: "Son, why didn't your Uncle Zhang enter the house?"
When General Zhao Jun explained Zhang Lifu's purpose, Wang Meilan sighed.
"Son, you must pay attention to safety." Wang Meilan warned Zhao Jun: "Like you said, this blind man has an evil nature."
"Yeah, Mom, I know." Zhao Jun responded, and then said to Wang Meilan: "Mom, you want to take some time to go to Tunbu today and call Xiangyang, and then call me, Uncle Zhao."
This is what Zhao Jun planned for the Zhao Family Chamber of Commerce's trip to Hebei. He set off on the same day and stopped at Jiechen's house in Xiangyangtun at noon.
Rest for an afternoon at Jiechen's house and catch up on some sleep. Then set off in the middle of the night, trying to arrive in Huludao the next night, and go directly to Zhao Weipeng's house as a guest.
Zhao Jun planned this way not because he wanted to trouble people, but because they were afraid of being unsafe when they were pulling a truckload of goods and staying in a hostel or something like that.
The main reason for staying at Jiechen's house first, and then at Zhao Weipeng's house was for safety.
By arranging the itinerary in this way, Zhao Jun and his party will be able to reach the destination of their trip, Xinji, Changshan, Hebei Province on the third day.
"Son, what should I say?" Wang Meilan asked, and Zhao Jun said, "Mom, tell my sister-in-law Xie that we will go there at noon the day after tomorrow. After that, tell my uncle Zhao that we will arrive in the evening the day after tomorrow."
When you go to a house, you have to say hello to the person in advance to see if it is convenient for them.
After hearing what Zhao Jun said, Wang Meilan responded: "Okay, son, I understand."
After Wang Meilan finished speaking, when Zhao Jun was about to go back to the house, she hurriedly stopped Zhao Jun and asked: "Son, is your mother going to grind rice today?"
After Zhao Weipeng left last time, Zhao Youcai muttered that he would give Zhao Weipeng two bags of rice.
This time the three of Zhao Jun went over, but they couldn't go empty-handed. So, just like Zhao Youcai said, they were going to get a few bags of rice for Zhao Weipeng.
And when they eat rice, they eat it freshly ground. Like Zhao Jun, who has a large family, they grind 200 kilograms at a time. For a normal family of three or five people, grinding 50 kilograms at a time is enough.
"Mom, you don't need to do this work." Zhao Jun said, glanced out the window, and then said to Wang Meilan: "Tomorrow, Sunday, let my dad and Uncle Li polish it off."
Hearing what Zhao Jun said, Wang Meilan pursed her lips and smiled.
At this moment, a dog barked suddenly outside the house.
"Huh?" Zhao Jun looked out the window next to the stove and saw a truck parked at the entrance of the courtyard.
Upon seeing this, Zhao Jun hurriedly opened the door and ran out. When he came out, Zhao Youcai had already greeted him at the entrance of the courtyard.
"Jin Yong." Zhao Youcai asked, "Why are you so idle today?"
The person driving the bucket was none other than Liu Jinyong, the security team leader of Yongan Forest Farm.
"What are you doing, Brother Zhao?" Liu Jinyong got out of the car, pointed to the big box on the backpack, and said, "I've sent equipment to your son and the others."
The forest protection team in Yong'an Forest District needed guns and ammunition, and the Shanhe Forestry Bureau reported the matter to the Ministry of Armed Forces. The Ministry of Armed Forces then approved six semi-automatic rifles for them, plus 500 rounds of ammunition.
"Ah?" Zhao Youcai was overjoyed when he heard that the equipment was being distributed, and said, "Have you sent us the equipment?"
He, Zhao Youcai, is about to become a member of the forest protection team, and he believes that he must have his share of this equipment.
Liu Jinyong didn't hear the fishiness in Zhao Youcai's words, and just smiled and said: "Yeah, it was approved yesterday. I don't think Zhao Jun and the others need this equipment, so I sent it to them right after get off work."
While Liu Jinyong was talking, Zhao Jun came out of the house. He, Liu Jinyong, and Zhao Youcai moved the gun box from the shoulder bag.
Then, Liu Jinyong took out a large square paper bag from the side bucket, which contained bullets.
"Okay, Brother Zhao, Zhao Jun, I'm going back." Liu Jinyong put down his things and was about to leave. Upon hearing this, Zhao Youcai hurriedly called Liu Jinyong into the house, but Liu Jinyong refused.
Liu Jinyong worked the night shift last night, and he was sleepy and tired and hadn't eaten breakfast yet. Considering that Zhao Jun and the others were going to chase the Xiong Ba who dug out his shack, Liu Jinyong hurriedly sent the equipment.
After delivering the equipment, Liu Jinyong was anxious to go home.
At this time, the Li family father and son, Li Dayong, Li Baoyu, and Li Ruhai came out of the west courtyard and greeted Liu Yong one after another.
After saying a few polite words, Liu Jinyong said goodbye to everyone, then rode on his shoulder bag and left.
After seeing off Liu Jinyong, Zhao Jun, and Li Baoyu, they picked up the big box and ran into the house. Zhao Youcai, Li Dayong, and Li Ruhai followed them into the house.
Wang Meilan was taking care of the two little girls for dinner in the east room, while Zhao Jun and others entered the west room with a loud huff.
Zhao Jun and Li Baoyu excitedly put the big box on the kang, opened the locks on both sides, and after opening the box, they saw six brand-new Type 56 semi-automatic rifles lying quietly in the box.
"Oh my god!" Even Li Ruhai, the youngest of the five, his eyes lit up the moment he saw these guns.
Men, who doesn’t like guns?
Each person copied a semi-automatic tree in his hand, playing with it and making gestures, with a bright smile on his face.
"Brother." Li Baoyu touched the semi-automatic gun and couldn't put it down, and said to Zhao Jun: "This is too decent!"
"Baoyu!" Zhao Jun raised his hand and pointed outside the house and said, "Go and play a double jingle to summon the old uncle and the younger ministers."
"Hey!" Li Baoyu agreed, slung the gun in his hand over his shoulder, and started to walk out with it on his back.
As soon as he walked to the outhouse, he saw Wang Meilan coming out of the east room and said to him: "Baoyu, please put some pineapple seeds at the door."
"Okay, ma'am." Li Baoyu happily walked out of the house with a gun on her back. Wang Meilan walked to the door of the west room, looked at the smiling people, and said with a smile: "It's just for your fun."
"Mom." Zhao Jun pulled Wang Meilan into the house, then pointed at the two semi-automatic rifles hanging on the wall and said, "When people come from Yongxing, give them the gun on the left and let them take it back."
In the past, when we didn’t have guns, we would ask people to borrow them. Now that we have abundant firepower, we should return the guns we borrowed. It just so happened that people from Yongxing came to give money today, so Zhao Jun was ready to let them take the guns back.
This chapter is not finished yet. Please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! At this time, Zhao Jun pointed to the semi-automatic rifle on the right and said to Wang Meilan: "Mom, before you go to the Tunbu, give this gun to me."
I, Uncle Zhao, will send it back."
"Okay, son." Wang Meilan responded: "Mom, remember."
"Listen... ugh!"
As soon as Wang Meilan finished speaking, two xiangzi shot up from the sky outside the Zhao Family Courtyard and exploded in mid-air.
As soon as the double bell rang, Jie Chen, who was eating with the old lady and Jie Sun at Jiang's house, took the half-eaten bun in his mouth, got up and got off the kang, put on his cotton-padded jacket and ran out.
At the same time, Wang Qiang, who was smoking on the kang after breakfast, suddenly jumped up and hurriedly went to the ground to kick off his shoes.
"Daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law!" Zhang Yuanmin shouted loudly while lying on the kang. Yang Yufeng, who was washing dishes in the outer room, asked him angrily: "What are you calling?"
"Didn't you listen to the cannon fire?" Zhang Yuanmin asked back: "Our brothers summon a few of us to come over!"
"That's not to call you." Yang Yufeng said, "Why, can you still go to the ground?"
"Do you know anything about six?" Zhang Yuanmin looked out the window and said melancholy: "When we brothers set off cannons, it's like the gathering drum."
"What the hell?" Yang Yufeng, who had finished washing the last bowl, appeared at the door of the house, while Xiao Lingdang, who was packing her schoolbag nearby, laughed secretly.
At this time, Zhang Yuanmin said: "Ding Feng will beat the drum to gather all the generals. If there are any who can't come, we will engage in military law."
Yang Yufeng knew that Zhang Yuanmin had another episode in the vernacular novel, and immediately curled her lips and said: "Then you can't go, let our brothers chop it for you."
"Haha..." Little Bell laughed happily, and Zhang Yuanmin glared at Yang Yufeng helplessly.
Suddenly, Xiao Lingdang was startled, then pointed out the window, turned around and shouted to Yang Yufeng: "Mom! Mom! I, Zhao Nai, ordered Song Mingzi."
"Ah?" Yang Yufeng was startled, then walked two steps into the house to the edge of the Kang. She only glanced out the window, then called to Little Lingdang and said, "My dear girl, quickly get dressed and go with mom!"
After saying that, Yang Yufeng went to get her cotton-padded jacket and scarf.
The couple got dressed under Zhang Yuanmin's resentful gaze, and then heard Yang Yufeng say to him: "What...that bell is her father, you stay at home for a while, I'll go see what's going on with my old aunt."
"That..." Zhang Yuanmin seemed to be about to say something, but Yang Yufeng pulled the little bell and left.
After coming out of home, Yang Yufeng and Xiao Lingdang met Li Dazhi's family of three. Two of the three in this family worked, and the remaining one was also an older girl, so they finished their meal very early.
When a group of people arrived at Zhao's house, Wang Qiang and Jie Chen had already arrived. They were playing with guns, not to mention how happy they were.
"Great nephew." Wang Qiang said to Zhao Jun with the semi-automatic in his hand: "With this gun, my gun can eliminate them."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Jun looked at Li Ruhai and said, "Ruhai, I'll give you a difficult task."
"Brother, tell me." Li Ruhai stood up and heard Zhao Jun say: "My uncle's gun and the hanging pipe at your house, you set them up outside, and they were all sold to someone else."
"My eldest nephew." After hearing what Zhao Jun said, Wang Qiang hurriedly said, "Wouldn't it be a waste of money if I sold it?"
"Old uncle, why are you keeping it?" Zhao Jun asked with a smile. He knew that he would not be able to make a dime from the gun after a few years, so he might as well sell the gun now while it is still valuable.
Wang Qiang was stunned by Zhao Jun's question. He asked a little unsteadily: "Nephew, from now on we will use the public gun?"
"Ah, how wonderful this is." Zhao Jun said with a smile: "Uncle, take one away, and you will make it a permanent one in the future."
"That's okay." Wang Qiang touched the semi-automatic in his hand, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said: "After selling the gun, I can still invest it in our business."
"That's right." Zhao Jun agreed: "So, why do you keep it? We won't bring the missing gun user in the future."
As soon as Zhao Jun finished speaking, a dog barked outside the house. The dog barked very fiercely, and it was definitely not an acquaintance.
Everyone subconsciously looked out the window and saw a liberation vehicle slowly stopping at the door.
"Oops!" Seeing this, Zhao Jun hurriedly called to Wang Meilan: "Mom, Yongxing and the others have sent money."
"Why are you here so early?" Wang Meilan heard this and hurriedly prepared to make tea and water.
Zhao Jun and Zhao Youcai ran out of the yard in a panic, only to see two people getting out of the car.
One was Tao Fei, an old acquaintance of Zhao Jun, and the other was known to both Zhao Jun and Zhao Youcai. It was You Zhijie, the accountant of the Yongxing Brigade.
Accountant You was holding a dough bag in his hand, which was bulging with something, which should be the fifty thousand yuan that the Yongxing brigade lent to the Zhao family.
The four shook hands and exchanged pleasantries, and Zhao Youcai greeted them into the room.
After sitting down in the room, Zhao Youcai took out Shilin cigarettes for You Zhijie, Tao Fei lit them, and Wang Meilan personally served tea.
"Master Zhao." You Zhijie thought that Zhao Youcai was the head of the family. He pushed the dough bag beside him towards Zhao Youcai and said, "This is 50,000 yuan. You can order some."
Zhao Youcai glanced at Wang Meilan, waved his hand and said, "Lan, please count the money."
In front of outsiders, Wang Meilan gave Zhao Youcai enough face. She went over and pulled the noodle bag over, and then greeted Li Tongyun in a low voice.
Looking at the bag of money, Li Tongyun's face fell. The search for one hundred thousand yuan that day made her fingers and wrists hurt. Although it was only fifty thousand yuan today, the workload was not small.
But the difference is that several companies raised funds that day, and they were all their own people, so Li Tongyun checked them casually.
It's different today. Tao Fei and You Zhijie are waiting for explanations there, and they can't let Li Tongyun investigate for half an hour.
Therefore, Wang Meilan took the lead in helping Li Tongyun check the money, and Lin Xue, Yang Yufeng, and Xiao Lingdang started to do it one after another, and the count was completed in a short time.
Seeing that the Zhao family had no objection to the money, You Zhijie pressed the cigarette butt into the ashtray made by the Zhao family, and then said to Zhao Youcai: "Master Zhao, if the money is no problem, I'll follow Xiao Fei and we'll leave.
"
As soon as You Zhijie said this, Tao Fei moved to the ground, but was stopped by Zhao Jun.
At this time, Zhao Youcai spoke, "Why are we leaving? Let's eat here at noon."
After saying that, Zhao Youcai pointed at Wang Meilan and said to You Zhijie: "Let the child stew the goose for you."
"No, Master Zhao." You Zhijie declined politely: "The two pigs I took in the car are to be sent to Shuguang. We have to leave soon."
"Brother Jun." Tao Fei on the side also said to Zhao Jun, "I'll come back tomorrow."
Since he had something to do, he couldn't force him to stay. Everyone sent the two of them out of the house, and before leaving, Zhao Jun personally handed the semi-automatic gun borrowed from Yongxing into Tao Fei's hands.
After seeing off the guests, it was time to go to work and go to school.
Xiao Lingdang took her three aunts to pick up Wang Tian, Zhao Youcai, Li Dayong and others to catch the commuter train.
After Zhao Youcai left, Zhao Jun said to Wang Qiang: "Uncle, I'm going to look after my house today."
"Alas!" Wang Qiang sighed, but still said: "You go."
In the past, Wang Qiang had nothing serious to do, but in the past few months, Wang Qiang was different from before. He had not touched a card for a long time.
Wang Qiang was also very concerned about the affairs of the Chamber of Commerce. Although he felt uncomfortable staying at home and wanted to go to the mountains to fight, he really couldn't do it without him at home, so in the end Wang Qiang stayed at home patiently.
"Let's go!" Following Zhao Jun's order, he, Li Baoyu, and Jie Chen all walked out of the house carrying new guns.
When they saw that the three of them were wearing mountaineering clothes and carrying guns, the hunting dogs in Zhao's yard kept barking excitedly.
People have human speech, and animals have animal speech.
Several dogs in Li's courtyard understood the barking of their companions and started barking along with them.
Three people and twelve dogs boarded the liberation vehicle one after another.
As Jie Chen got up, the Liberation Vehicle drove away from Zhao's house and headed straight for the gangster village.
