Chapter 10: The security team was also forced to rob

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

Jiang Hao understood the terror of the gun; faced with the muzzle, he could only retreat, putting down the wine jar and stepping back two paces

The cornbread made from pure cornmeal was coarse and rough, causing a painful choking sensation. I quickly scooped a ladle of water from the large vat with a gourd ladle and gulped it down, thus avoiding choking to death

"The old leper in Shibali Pu is about to die, yet he still marries a wife. Isn't this harmful? Ao Ge, have you seen the new bride? What does she look like?" someone leaned over the bed and curiously asked.

Eighteen Li Puzhen, located eighteen li from the city, as Jiang Hao entered the city gate carrying a wine jar, it was already ten minutes past sunset.

"Zhan Ao, today at Old Li's house in the east of the city, a wedding is taking place. You are the main bearer of the sedan chair. After we finish our meal, we will head over there." said the foreman

Moreover, he also inquired about some other details, such as the fact that the security team in the county has more than fifty members, and the team leader is named Liu Damao, who is in his forties this year. The reason he was able to become the leader of the Gaomi County security team is that his brother, Liu Dapao, is the commander of the Nationalist Army's 33rd Regiment, which is stationed less than a hundred miles from Gaomi County.

"I suspect you are carrying contraband, and I need to conduct a search," said the crookedly-hatted man

He wants a gun, and perhaps this is an opportunity

"You really are full of crap, hurry up, the city gates will close soon." After saying this, he paid no attention to the crookedly worn hat and leaned against the city wall to smoke.

He is here to carry out a mission, not to serve as a laborer for the sedan chair. He already had an idea last night, and he will begin its implementation starting today

Wearing the hat askew, he stepped forward, opened the wine jar to take a look, and said to Jiang Hao: "Hmm, I think there is something wrong with this wine. It needs to be taken back for a thorough inspection. You may leave now"

At the city gate, there were two individuals dressed in khaki military uniforms standing guard, with long rifles slung over their shoulders. Yu Zhanyao's memory informed him that although they were in military attire, they were merely members of the local security team, equivalent to police officers. Despite their armed appearance, very few of them had actually been in combat.

Yu Zhanao is organized; he is a member of the sedan chair team in the city. By the time he returned to the team's base, it was already dark. Jiang Hao's stomach was growling with hunger, and the kitchen was empty. He noticed a few buns left in the basket and picked one up, taking a bite out of it.

"Sixth Brother, my younger brother drank too much yesterday, and now he still has a headache. I must say, the sorghum liquor from Shibali Pu is indeed quite strong," said the man with the crooked hat.

After taking a drag from half a cigarette, he tilted his hat and, holding his stomach, said: "Oh dear, Sixth Brother, I need to go relieve myself." With that, he ran towards the outskirts of the city

In fact, he has memories of Yu Zhan'ao and is generally aware of the situation, although there were some details he did not pay particular attention to before. This time, Jiang Hao's understanding encompasses these circumstances.

If it doesn't work out, come to us. We not only carry the sedan chair, but we can also carry people, and we do it for free.

He also inquired about which few places in Gaomi have a lot of money, preparing for the possibility of robbing a batch if necessary

This means you don't have a wife, come here, Liu Ge, let me light it for you

I dare not, for we understand that those who dare to bring foreign liquor are not to be trifled with, hehe

After receiving your monthly salary, the first thing you do is to dive into the brothel, sooner or later your manhood will rot away

"You are quite perceptive," said Brother Liu as he took a box of cigarettes out of his pocket. The man wearing the hat quickly smiled and said, "Brother Liu, give me one too."

It is truly a pity; I hope that old fellow doesn't exhaust himself to the point of collapsing tonight

The term 'boss' is one that Jiang Hao learned from television and movies, and he is not sure if it is correct

"How could I possibly have money to buy cigarettes?" said the man with a crooked hat, unbothered by the scolding, with a playful smile on his face

Amidst the cacophony of voices, everyone was speaking nonsense, and Jiang Hao said no more. He lay down on his bunk, and immediately a strong odor of sweat wafted up.

Opportunities must not be missed, for they will not come again

Jiang Hao lowered the brim of his straw hat as he walked out. He brought nothing with him today, so the gatekeeper naturally did not pay much attention to him, merely glancing over casually and not really seeing the person. In fact, even if they had seen him, they would not have remembered; they generally only looked at objects and not at people.

Hahaha ~ ~ ''

As dusk approached, Jiang Hao inadvertently wandered to the city gate, where he immediately spotted the person with the crooked hat conversing with a companion.

After Jiang Hao left, the man with the crooked hat chuckled and said to the slightly older soldier beside him, "Sixth Brother, we have wine to drink tonight"

He has truly witnessed unreasonable behavior, feeling a deep resentment in his heart. He cast a glance at the gun slung over the shoulder of the man wearing his hat askew and then left.

Goodness, this flavor is quite pungent, it hits the head

"Boss, it's just a jar of wine, how could it possibly be a prohibited item..." Jiang Hao had just spoken half a sentence when the man shrugged and a long gun was in his hand, the dark muzzle pointed at Jiang Hao as he shouted: "Stop the damn nonsense, I said to check, did you hear me?"

Jiang Hao quickly stopped, looked at the other party and said: "Boss, this is the sorghum liquor I brought back from Shibali Pu."

Jiang Hao opened his mouth, yet did not say anything

Early the next morning, as the rooster crowed three times, everyone got out of bed. People brushed their teeth, rinsed their mouths, and washed their faces in the courtyard. A middle-aged woman prepared cornmeal porridge and flatbreads for everyone, along with a plate of pickled vegetables. People gathered together, eating while discussing the day's events.

After a tiring day, he could even fall asleep in the muddy ground. Jiang Hao endured the discomfort, contemplating how to proceed the next day, and gradually, he unexpectedly fell asleep.

Jiang Hao muttered to himself as he swallowed two pieces of dry bread with water, feeling that there was something in his stomach. Only then did he return to his room to prepare for sleep, as he needed to think carefully about what to do next

Original ecology, no genetically modified organisms

Jiang Hao was drinking porridge and gnawing on a traditional pancake, shaking his head and saying: "I have matters to attend to these days, so I won't be taking on any work. Please send someone else."

Well, that's good

It is already quite good to have some to drink, yet you still find it unsatisfactory. If you have the ability, next time you should grab two bottles of foreign wine, now that would be truly enjoyable. I have seen the team leader drink it before; that wine is blood-red, and it looks absolutely stunning.

You have never bought your own cigarettes, always mooching off mine

He searched for a small tree, leaned his gun against it, took off the bullet belt from his body and hung it on a tree branch, unbuckled his belt and squatted down, casually broke a branch, skillfully tore it into sections, and bit it in the middle to split it open, which he would use later to wipe himself.

"Hmm, I'm back," Jiang Hao replied.

That character, do you think he is still acceptable? We can only wait and see

Wearing his hat askew, he exited the city gate and ran for twenty to thirty meters until he arrived at a patch of thicket, which had essentially become their designated latrine.

After having breakfast, Jiang Hao, taking advantage of the moment when no one was paying attention, secretly tucked a few buns into his arms, put on his straw hat, and stepped out, beginning to wander around the county town

Stop, what are you carrying on your back

His current thought is to see if he can obtain some money; with money, everything else becomes convenient. Furthermore, he wants to acquire a gun for self-defense. Living in chaotic times, he feels extremely unsafe without a gun

Watching the crookedly worn hat run out of the city gate, the long spear swaying behind him, a surge of impulse suddenly arose in Jiang Hao's mind

He lives in a large dormitory, where seven or eight men are sleeping on a big kang. Upon entering the room, one is greeted by a strong scent of masculinity. People greet him as he returns, saying, "Brother Ao is back"

Take it from him

One of the guys wearing a hat askew pointed at Jiang Hao and shouted
