In the early hours of the morning, I excused myself as I needed to relieve myself, and our truck temporarily stopped on the side of the road with its double flashers on.
Walking further away, I looked at the phone screen and felt extremely anxious. The text message contained only five words.
"Brother Feng, I'm sorry."
From these five short words, it is not difficult to see the despair in Xiaoying's heart. I wish I could put on my wings and fly over now.
This happened so suddenly that I was unprepared here in Chun'an, but no matter what, the principle I adhere to has always been that if money is gone, you can make more, and if people are gone, then there is really nothing.
Life is always more important than money.
Xiaoying stopped answering the call. Maybe she felt too shameless to answer my call. Liangzi’s cell phone also couldn’t be reached.
Suddenly I thought of a person, and I immediately found the number and dialed it.
"Hey! Fat black man!"
"Who do I think you are? It turns out to be brother Yunfeng. Have you changed your mobile phone number? How are you doing lately?"
"Stop talking nonsense! Where are you? You didn't even tell me such a big thing happened! You're just doing it!"
"What's the matter, brother? You're so angry at night."
"you do not know?"
"I don't know, I have been traveling in Xiangshan for the past month."
I took a deep breath and yelled into the phone: "What did you do! How did I tell you at the beginning! I said that my cousins were inexperienced and asked you to help take care of them! Ryoko let someone trick him and you didn't even think about it.
I know! You're going to have some free time now! If I had known I shouldn't have helped you in the first place! I should have let those loan sharks hack you to death!"
"Holy shit, brother, you said I really didn't know about this!"
"You are the emperor and the emperor is far away. You don't know anything. Since the second half of last year, the couple has been working together to prevent me from interfering in business matters. They don't say anything to me. I can go there when I'm free."
Cheng Tian helps them find some goods, especially Xiaoying. She usually guards against me like a thief. If I hadn't promised you to help them for three years, I would have left long ago!"
I frowned and asked, "Why didn't you tell me this?"
"Brother Yunfeng, what are you talking about? What is the relationship between them and you, and what is the relationship between me and you? Even if I tell you, can you still turn your elbows outward? To put it bluntly, I can see your identity clearly, I
He’s just an outsider working for you.”
"Brother Yunfeng, I will remember the favor you gave Fatty in the past. Now it's useless to say that. Just tell me what I can do."
I immediately said: "Hurry back to Panjiayuan, keep an eye on Xiaoying before I arrive, and stop him from doing stupid things. Also, control Liangzi for me, I have to skin him this time!"
The fat black man said he would do it right away.
Setting out on the road again, I finally saw what "professional cultural relics transportation service" is. In the era when mobile phone navigation was not yet popular, they could always know what the road conditions were ahead of them through the so-called "dispatch room", whether there was a traffic jam, and whether there was any traffic jam.
The traffic police are on duty to check these specific information.
I cannot reveal too much. I can only say that this company is still operating normally, but its name is no longer Guangxin.
Because I knew that the Henan Song brothers also had business dealings with them, I asked about this matter, and the answer I got surprised me.
Brother Qi replied: "You can't make much money by dumping goods in China, and there is no volume. Retail investors like you, brother, are not stable. We are just trying to protect our capital. The real profitable business is to go abroad."
I said: "That's all wild work. We in the north have rules and don't sell goods abroad."
He smiled and said: "Many of the Yeluzi that you northern faction have always looked down on have become prosperous now. I dare not say how many, but I know dozens of Yeluzi who are worth over 100 million. The Song brothers came to our boss the year before last and said that they could do it.
Help pay for a plane, and then pretend to be a courier company to help them run the Henan special line, mainly transporting large cultural relics, such as bronze cauldrons, sarcophagus beds, stone statues, and tomb beasts. Our boss thinks that buying a plane is too risky.
, so I didn’t dare to agree to the other party.”
"So, brothers, times have changed now. The wild people you looked down on now look down on you. People now commit crimes in fast-moving gangs and use various high-tech tomb-exploring equipment. There may be tombs underground.
Just swipe the screen and it will be displayed. In comparison, your old Northern technology is probably out of date, right?"
I raised my eyebrows and said: "It's useless to make a lot of money. You have to have that life flower. In our industry, at least hundreds of people are arrested every year. How many northerners are there among them? I think it's less than one-tenth."
, In addition, 90% of them are wild people. My evaluation of wild people is that they work quickly, thrive quickly, and die quickly."
"You said that our technology lags behind their high-tech equipment. I don't agree with this. If nothing else, I'm afraid they will never be able to learn the unique skill of listening to the wind and thunder."
Hu Mingzai asked me out of curiosity: "Brother, what is the principle behind your listening to the wind and thunder?"
I pointed to my ear and said: "The principle is simply echolocation."
He smiled and said: "Interesting, brother, I feel like you are like a bat, you can use ultrasound to locate."
I smiled awkwardly. After all, he was not an expert in the industry. He couldn't understand me when I explained. Listening to thunder has been one of the most advanced methods of tomb robbing since ancient times. It can be completely mastered by only a few people from the Northern Sect Central Committee.
There are no more than ten, and I should be the youngest among them.
As for skills that are still superior to Ting Lei, there is only "Tian Xing Feng Shui". Only Master Yao knows it. This is one of the reasons why he was later called the Patriarch. His team robs more than 300 tombs a year.
On average, we get together every day. This speed is really scary.
Today's high-tech equipment is powerful, I admit that, but it is nothing in front of the Star Technique. It is like comparing the speed of a green train and a bullet high-speed train. Although they both run on the rails, they are not of the same order of magnitude.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but sigh in my heart.
Nowadays, Yeluzi continues to grow, and the Southern faction makes a lot of money by eating sunken ships, because there has been a saying in the industry since ancient times that "one ship can carry ten tombs".
In contrast, the status of the Northern faction has been declining year by year. Fortunately, there are still two people, Nan Luo and Bei Yao, who support the facade.
On the premise of adhering to the old rules, the Northerners need to make some changes, which is one of the reasons why I am interested in those high-tech equipment.
I hope that in the future I can perfectly combine technology with science and find a different path, such as the tomb-robbing robot I mentioned before, that is a good idea.
There are all kinds of robots now. If there is a tomb robbing robot, it should not be afraid of the various mechanisms, corpse poisons, traps, etc. in the tomb. The name is the Northern Robot. It can be said that in the tomb
