Chapter 585 Running away
Chapter 585 Running away
"Blindfolded fish sorting..."
These four simple words have profound implications.
After repeating it several times in my mind, I gradually sorted out some of the connections.
Some time ago, the leader always tried to get me away on purpose, like that time when he asked me to go back alone to get the gas cylinder.
Now it seems that the unidentified person who pretended to help me move things had put the head there, probably with the intention of watching me.
Xiaoxuan cares about me very much. In the past, whenever I disappeared for more than 24 hours, she would call and ask where I was. But Xiaoxuan hasn't called me much in recent times.
There are also Bean Sprouts and Fish Brother.
Brother Yu has disappeared for nearly a month. This must be the intentional arrangement of the boss.
In other words, the boss had anticipated today's situation two years ago.
The boss chose not to tell me, but arranged everything in secret step by step. The whole process was flawless and everything seemed so reasonable.
If I hadn't come to this point, I might never have known the truth behind it.
When Piaozi Ke showed up and Chaosheng told me these things, it was obvious that he had instructed from the head.
The leader had only one purpose, which was to keep me calm and let me know that he always believed in me.
Because of the head, my fear of the Jiang family was reduced a lot.
"I met with the Jiang family last night and told them that Zukengyuan only had one piece of golden armor."
Chaosheng nodded: "Okay, this is also one of the goals that Wang Baotou wanted to achieve. You inadvertently revealed the false information you had to the other party.
Chaosheng held up three fingers at me and said, "Now we're going to split into three teams. Captain Wang will be responsible for secretly investigating the Jiang family and formulating a plan. Senior and I will be in charge of digging the pit and retrieving the treasure. You will be the first team."
"What do I do?"
"What are you best at?" Chaosheng asked back.
“I’m good at a lot of things.”
Chaosheng frowned and said, "You are good at causing trouble and running away."
I was a little unhappy and thought to myself, what are you talking about?
"Don't be angry. I'm complimenting you. Not everyone can do what you do. You have your own connections. Let's work together to uncover all the secrets of the Jiang family. But at this time, you must prevent the other party from becoming desperate. Use your connections to protect yourself and don't let them be silenced. If the Jiang family can't defeat Boss Wang, they will probably attack you first."
"Where's the boss? If I'm not with him, who will protect him?"
"No need to worry about that."
Chao Sheng said firmly, "Even if the Jiang family had their eyes all over Qiandao Lake, they wouldn't be able to find where Boss Wang is hiding, not to mention he's surrounded by a group of experts from Sichuan."
"Brother Pao is still here?"
Chao Sheng nodded.
I took a deep breath and took a bite of the fish.
At this time, Lao Zhang said, "I'm a little worried now. We have to pay attention. With such a large amount of gold artifacts coming out, anyone with a little knowledge can tell that they came from a large number of pits. If this batch of goods is concentrated in the market later, it may attract the attention of the white people."
I looked at him and said, "There's definitely no problem with our channels. We've produced something even more powerful than the Golden Armor before."
"Oh? That golden armor is considered level one, right? Is there anything more powerful than it?"
"Can't say, keep it secret."
"Compared to resources, you guys in the south are still a bit behind. No matter how good the things found in the water cave shipwreck are, they are just circulating goods. They are just better in quantity, and their nature is different from the goods found in the real tomb."
"Come to think of it, if the north is so good, why did you come to our south?"
Old Zhang looked relaxed, but a hint of dissatisfaction flashed in his eyes.
I was telling the truth, but I knew it wasn't appropriate to bring this up in this context, so I added, "I don't mean to look down on the southerners. What I'm trying to say is that times are changing. While the north has good local products, they've been in short supply for years. The south's parallel imports are a bit inferior, but they're plentiful and plentiful, and they're readily available. Ultimately, our goal is to get rich, so shouldn't we abandon the old idea that there's no interaction between the north and the south? Just like this time, regardless of the outcome, we did cooperate."
"No, no, we can't represent the Southern and Northern factions. My uncle and I can sit here and have dinner with you because of the Jie family. Chaosheng can help you because of his grandfather's relationship with your master. After this, we will go our separate ways. If you ask us for help alone in the future, we won't help you. You still have to distinguish these things clearly."
"I thought we were friends."
Lao Zhang smiled and said, "Brother, your thoughts are too frivolous. Friends? For the next few days, yes, but after that, it may not be the case."
I sighed.
After chatting for a while, Chaosheng took the guests away. I sat alone for a long time until the first table of guests arrived in the restaurant. Then I realized it was already noon.
The fat lady didn't chase me away. Instead, she took the initiative to help me collect the leftover fish and brought me a pot of hot tea.
The fat lady took off her apron, sat down and said, "Why are you so distraught? Are you heartbroken?"
"No, I'm thinking about work."
"By the way, big sister, do you know which family is the richest and most powerful in Qiandao Lake right now?"
She thought for a moment and replied, "The richest family is probably the Xia family. A few years ago, they bought more than a dozen buildings along the South Lake at once. Later, their superiors issued a notice saying that a resort hotel was going to be built there. The Xia family rented out those buildings to someone else for development, and they made a killing."
"Besides the Xia family?"
"That's the Fang family. All the promising members of the Fang family are officials. We can only say that this place is the hometown of those people. Some of them haven't been back for many years."
"Jiang family, have you ever heard of it?"
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading!
"Jiang family? No, there's only one Jiang Village, no one has lived there for a long time, so there's no such thing as a Jiang family."
The fat lady had a natural expression. I didn't want to involve her, so I changed the subject and asked, "By the way, sister, didn't you say last time that your husband would be back this month? Why haven't I seen him?"
"I didn't ask him to come back. Let's wait until the end of the year. My child is graduating and getting married soon. There are a lot of expenses to be made, and we need to save more."
"Your business is getting better and better, and you don't hire a waiter. Why don't you just ask him to come back and help you?" I said.
"How can that be? I can handle being busy alone. Whether he works outside or is a boss, a man has to have his own things to do. I won't be able to adapt if he stays at home every day, and we will have quarrels from time to time." The fat lady sighed.
"Yeah...you're right, a man should always have his own things to do."
"Let's go, big sister."
"You haven't paid yet! Sixty!!"
"Next time, I'll come and eat fish again."
......
In the evening, people were coming and going on the dock, and I met someone under a tree.
"Boss, these are the things you want: glasses, clothes, shoes, and hats. This is your phone with a new card inside. Here's five thousand in cash, and these are your car keys."
"Where's the thing I want?"
"At the very bottom... wrapped in clothes..."
"What happened, boss? You seem to be running away. Our Dachao Gang's future cannot be without you." Ma Dachao said with a sad face.
"Don't be so hypocritical. If I'm gone, then you'll be the real boss."
Ma Dachao immediately laughed and said, "That's true, but I don't want anything to happen to you. You gave us the startup capital for the gang. If it weren't for you, I'd still be selling fried noodles on the roadside. I, Ma Dachao, may not be well-educated, but I know how to repay a favor. If you don't tell me the details, it proves that it's beyond my ability, so I won't ask. In short, I just want to tell you one thing: be safe."
After saying this, Ma Dachao turned around and left, quickly blending into the crowd at the dock.
After coming out of the bathroom, I changed into an inconspicuous outfit.
After finding the Peugeot prepared by Ma Dachao, I drove towards the 330 direction.
After getting on the national highway, I turned to look at the passenger seat.
There was an open bag on the seat, with a homemade gun sticking out of it.
Even Fat Sister, a native of Weiping, has never heard of the Jiang family. This shows how deeply those people are hiding.
Chaosheng said that Qiandao Lake is full of Jiang family's eyes, which gave me an unreal illusion.
Watching the setting sun and the gradual arrival of night, I had the illusion that there was a big eye above the entire Qiandao Lake, staring down at my inconspicuous little car.
Cursing inwardly, I stepped on the accelerator to the bottom.
A man is alone and powerless and must now seek protection.
So, one person, one car, and my destination is...
Zhuji, Tang Dynasty.
I have to go find my godfather.
