Chapter 445 The Brainless Young Man Who Supports His Brother 25
Xu Tao folded her hands and walked forward angrily. Chi Zheng sighed, handed the thing in his hand to the person next to him, and quickly stepped forward.
"Taotao, we're all very worried about you. We agreed to come back before three in the afternoon, but it's almost six now. We searched the entire town but couldn't find you. We wanted to contact the police, but they were afraid..."
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to. I got delayed in the city for a while."
If it weren't for the two men with pointed chins and monkey cheeks, she would have been able to come back before three o'clock. It seems that she will have to come back later next time.
"Did anything happen?"
Xu Tao didn't want the five people to worry, so she made an excuse to get away with it.
After dinner in the evening, the six of them gathered together and waited for midnight.
"Shouldn't we go over and help?"
"Don't worry, they have enough people, and they don't want their appearance to be seen by others. We can just wait until midnight."
"What are you mumbling about here?"
Li Nuan suddenly spoke, and the six people were startled.
"Huh~ It's you, Sister Nuan. Aren't we discussing when the house will be completed?"
"My dad said it will be done in two days. You guys are paying a lot of money, and all the uncles and aunts are working there, so it will be done quickly."
"That's fine, Sister Nuan, what do you want to talk to us about?"
"My mom asked me to ask you if you want furniture made. If you do, you'd better find Uncle Gen as soon as possible. Some of the furniture may not be available at Uncle Gen's place."
Xu Tao slapped her head and said that she had forgotten something. It turned out to be this.
Now everyone was still awake, so the six of them went to Uncle Gen's house together, ordered the furniture they wanted, and went back to continue waiting.
At eleven o'clock sharp, the six of them went up the mountain together. It took them more than an hour to reach the secret base. Almost all the things inside were emptied, with only a pile left in the corner.
"These should be the leftovers they picked out."
Zhou Zili walked closer and opened his mouth in surprise when he saw what was inside.
"What's wrong with you? Are you stupid?"
Kang Peng followed behind and found it a little funny. Brother Li was always making a lot of noise, and when he got close to him, he couldn't help but exclaim.
It turned out to be white rice, white flour, a lot of bacon, cakes and milk powder. The most surprising thing was the snow-white cotton and cloth, which were their most scarce items at the moment.
"I didn't have time to ask you, I made the decision on my own. See if you need anything, and the rest is mine."
"Who would refuse such a good thing? Taotao, you are amazing."
"Of course my little sister is the best, but after this job, she can't go alone."
In the past three months, Zhuang Xiaoxiao has gained a general understanding of the current situation. It is better to go to that place as little as possible, especially with Wang Meili, a time bomb, around.
"I know. I'll definitely invite you guys next time."
Xu Tao supplied everyone with what they needed, and there were enough wild animals and wild game in the space, so it would be fine if they could go to trade in the future.
Everyone unanimously decided to divide the items into six equal parts. Except for some differences in color, the styles were basically the same.
Xu Tao calculated the final amount based on the number of types collected and the amount purchased today, which was 5,600 yuan, mainly because the medicinal materials were expensive.
If Wang Dequan sells the ginseng to someone who needs it, he can get at least two to three thousand yuan.
Xu Tao planned to divide the money according to what each person found, but Wang Dequan shook his head. "I don't agree with this way of dividing the money. I want to split it equally. What do you think? We went up the mountain together, and everyone contributed."
Taotao is always looking for routes. Without her, we can’t sell anything. Xiaoxiao is very alert and has helped us avoid many dangers.
Xiaopeng has sharp eyes, Xiaozheng has great endurance, and Xiaoli has a great sense of direction. It's because we travel together that we can find so many great things. It doesn't make sense for me to take the lion's share."
In the end, the five people were unable to persuade Wang Dequan and agreed to divide it equally, but each of them took 900 yuan, and the remaining 1,100 yuan belonged to him.
Wang Dequan wanted to push for it again, but Zhou Zili put his arm around him and said, "Brother Quan, you know we're not short of money. We owe it to you this time. If you continue to push it, we'll just follow the original division."
"Yeah, stop worrying about it. We might as well go back to sleep instead of spending this much time on it."
"Okay, okay, I'll take it, thank you. I never dreamed that I could earn so much money in a month. If I had known this, I would have built a house with you." Wang Dequan looked at the money in his hand with some regret.
"Brother Quan, didn't you notice there was an extra room when you were looking at the house?"
"Wh...what do you mean?"
Wang Dequan guessed it but couldn't believe it. Seeing the five people nodded in unison, he happily gave Zhou Ziling, who was closest to him, a bear hug and almost strangled him to death.
"Ahem, I need to stay away from Brother Quan. He's too scary."
The six of them came down the mountain playing and laughing, each with a satisfied smile on their face.
"It's time to divide the pigs. Taotao, hurry up and get up. Grab your bowls and chopsticks and go to the drying yard to eat the pig-killing dishes."
Zhuang Xiaoxiao put the meat in her hand into the kitchen while calling the five people, feeling very happy.
"Okay, here we come."
"Sister, you got up so early."
"It's not early anymore. When I got there, there were already a lot of people in line ahead of us. Luckily, we like pork ribs and pork belly, and the fat ones were already picked up by the people in front of us."
The six people arrived at the drying yard chatting and laughing, not noticing the cold and resentful gaze behind them.
Geng Zhenzhen saw it all clearly and quietly moved away. She was living a good life now and didn't want to get involved in this mess. Before she even reached the drying yard, she heard shouting and cursing. She knew without a doubt that it was the vicious woman from the Yan family looking for trouble.
"You whores, hurry up and bring the food in your bowls to me. You bitches don't deserve to eat it!"
"No...I won't give it to you!"
The second daughter-in-law of the Yan family was much more energetic after saying this. Facing the murderous gaze, she straightened her back and said, "Mom, this is what we worked so hard for in the fields. Why shouldn't we deserve to eat it? I'll eat it!"
When Old Lady Yan saw the bitch actually put the butchered pig dish into her mouth, her eyes bulged out. She dropped the bowl on the ground, grabbed her hair and slapped her several times, "You black-hearted, rotten-lung whore, how dare you eat butchered pig dish with your worthless life? I'll beat you to death, you unlucky star!"
The other three daughters-in-law looked at each other, finished their pig-killing dishes, and stepped forward, trying to stop the fight with their mouths and their hands to pinch the old woman Yan Yan.
The four sons of the Yan family turned around with their children and pretended not to see anything.
"Ahhh, you whores, how dare you attack an old woman? This is so unfair! Old man, please take me away! I am old and still being bullied by my daughter-in-law. I can't live anymore!"
Old Lady Yan howled heart-wrenchingly but the people around her did not feel pity for her. The third daughter-in-law of the Yan family was the most brutal. Her child was killed by the old lady, and she wanted revenge.
"stop!"
Seeing that someone was about to be beaten to death, Li Jiangang called a few people to stop the farce.
