Chapter 242 You're a Spy Too
Chapter 242 You're a Spy Too
As he stood up warily, carrying his baton, he was startled to see Luo Baiwan and asked in surprise, "Uncle, what brings you here?"
Liu Chunsheng hurriedly opened the door, letting the light shine out and illuminate the path beneath Luo Baiwan's feet.
Luo Baiwan walked into the police station under the lamplight and sighed, "I couldn't sleep at home, so I came to sit here for a while. I was afraid that Da Ya wouldn't be able to find me if she called!"
Last time it was all his fault for being too slow, letting that brat Luo Jing get there first and causing trouble for Daya.
The two sat under the lamp, talking about their recent troubles, their hair turning white from worry.
Suddenly the phone rang. Liu Chunsheng and Luo Baiwan exchanged a glance, wondering if it was their cousin/Da Ya.
On second thought, that's impossible.
Liu Chunsheng walked over, picked up the microphone, and said, "Hello, this is the Ji'an Town Police Station..."
"Big cousin, it's me, Luo Ning!" Luo Ning said, sitting in the dean's office with a smile on his face.
She never expected to run into her cousin today; this stroke of luck is something to be celebrated.
"You heartless girl, you've been gone for so long and haven't even called home..."
Liu Chunsheng was rambling on when suddenly his hand went empty; the microphone was gone.
He turned his head and saw Luo Baiwan holding a microphone, so he immediately put his ear close to it.
"Da Ya, what's going on outside..." Luo Baiwan spilled the beans to Luo Ning, telling her about Luo Jing's phone call, full of worry, "Did Luo Jing cause you any trouble?"
Luo Ning's heart sank to the bottom. Those cunning people had actually come to her house to find loopholes.
Sure, that's bastardly! Luo Ning's mind raced.
"Dad, after I left home, I came to the Jidu Military Region. Xie Chang'an is injured, and I'm in a little trouble right now. Don't worry, I can handle it. I've developed some markets here and urgently need money. Take your bankbook and Luo Hai with you, and come out as soon as possible! Call me when you get there, and I'll pick you up at the station! If I don't have time, I'll have someone pick you up!"
"Okay, I understand. The workshop is basically fine now. The factory, accommodation, and canteen are all under construction day and night. The main structure is already up. However, there's been a problem with the vegetable business. I'll have Chunsheng talk to you about it!"
Luo Baiwan handed the microphone to Liu Chunsheng and paced anxiously around the room.
Da Ya didn't say anything, but that was the same as saying everything. The trouble Luo Jing had caused her could only be resolved by his intervention!
What exactly happened to that child? The family had no idea that Chang'an was injured, and they didn't even know how badly he was hurt...
Liu Chunsheng was so excited that his hands trembled, and he couldn't even speak while holding the microphone.
The quiet was broken by Luo Ning, who asked, "Cousin, how's the coal yard?"
"The coal yard is fine, so don't worry. However, there's been a problem with the vegetables. The vegetables we secretly swapped out are of varying quality. Xu Jianguo has been causing trouble for my dad lately, so my second uncle and I have temporarily suppressed the matter."
Now, Boss Zhang comes to the village every three days to pick up his cart; he's too conspicuous. That hungry wolf Xu Jianguo won't give up until he gets something out of our vegetables.
Luo Ning narrowed his eyes slightly and said, seemingly casually, "Big cousin, kindness is a disease, it needs to be cured!"
Liu Chunsheng understood immediately; he knew what to do.
“These past two days, some vegetable suppliers have come to our field wanting to buy our vegetables, and they're offering even higher prices than what Mr. Zhang offered! My dad wants to sell the vegetables to them, but my second uncle disagrees. He says that people should be honest. They just had a fight today, and they only stopped when they accidentally hit my aunt.”
Luo Ning felt a headache coming on; his uncle was really something...
But why is her mother at her parents' house? What's going on?
“I agree with my second uncle’s point of view. Honesty is fundamental in business. We can’t ignore the fundamentals for short-term gains. We need to take a long-term view. If my eldest uncle continues like this, then let him go home to retire, and let my second uncle manage the entire vegetable business.”
Liu Chunsheng nodded happily. This was a good idea. If they didn't give his father a hard time, he would really think that the vegetable business was his stage and that the whole world had to listen to him.
"Okay, I understand. I will convey your message to my dad and my second uncle. My cousin said that something happened recently, so my aunt came back to her parents' house to stay. She stays with my dad every day and they work together to suppress my second uncle. My second uncle is now covered in bruises. With your authority, he can act freely."
You said we were born of the same mother and ate the same food, so why is your second uncle so smart, while your dad and mom are just...
Oh, right, my second uncle said that someone at Boss Zhang's place is trying to put a bad word for him, telling him not to sell our food! What do you think we should do?
Today is July 7.22nd, Xie Changle's college entrance exam is over, when are you coming back?
Luo Ning curled his lip. This world isn't from the 60s, the 70s, or the 80s; it's conjunctivitis.
"Now we're making two preparations. You have your second uncle find a large storefront in the city. Initially, we'll hang it under the name 'Anning Fruits and Vegetables,' selling fruits and vegetables, and taking a wholesale and retail approach. Later, I have other uses for it."
If Mr. Zhang breaches the contract and doesn't buy our goods, then we'll take the vegetables to our storefront to sell. I'll handle Mr. Zhang's matter when I get back.
If Mr. Zhang does not breach the contract and continues to cooperate with us, we will continue to sell vegetables to him, and the store will sell any surplus vegetables and fruits.
I can't possibly eat all the fruit that grows in my garden, so selling it will be a good source of income.
As for the price, let my second uncle take a look at the prices on the market and raise it a bit. Our products are good, so they will sell even if they are a little more expensive.
Luo Jing is on summer vacation, let her go to her grandma's house too, don't let her stay in the village! Big cousin, that's all!
Luo Ning suddenly remembered what the glimmer of inspiration she had missed was, and hurriedly hung up the phone and left.
A short while later, Luo Ning pushed open Xie Chang'an's hospital room door, took out a piece of hemp rope, tied it to the window, and took out an alcohol bottle to rub it on the window, rubbing it with great enthusiasm.
Xie Chang'an: "..."
The young wife wanted to burn the house down? He was torn; should he not stop her or not?
Half an hour later, several unidentified people appeared in the corridor outside Xie Chang'an's ward. They were quickly surrounded and beaten by officers from the Second Battalion on patrol.
Xie Chang'an, who was on the bed, suddenly opened his eyes and heard a strange noise. A tall figure jumped in through the window and landed nimbly in the room.
"Who?" Xie Chang'an's expression tightened, and he became fully alert.
"Xie Chang'an, have you been blown silly by the bomb? You don't even recognize me? I'm your good brother!"
"I don't know you. Who are you?" Xie Chang'an's face instantly darkened.
A devilish smile played on the man's lips as he walked to the foot of the bed. "They all call me a spy, and so do you. We swore a blood oath in Sulin, vowing not to be born on the same day, month, and year, but to die on the same day, month, and year."
You bastard, you acted like you were dead as soon as you got back to Jidu! I went through so much trouble to come see you!
"Nonsense!" Xie Chang'an's hand, hidden under the blanket, trembled slightly. Being labeled a spy would be a death sentence for him!
"Tell me, who sent you?"
"You're no fun at all! No wonder Tian Susu doesn't like you!" The man rubbed his temples; he disliked dealing with serious people the most.
"But you are indeed a talent. I'm here to pick you up today. You were born to do great things. Why should you settle down in such a shabby place, earning a staggering two hundred dollars a month? Your value is worth more than a thousand or even ten thousand two hundred dollars."
The door was suddenly flung open, and the people outside rushed in...
