"Hey buddy, you look a bit unfamiliar. Are you new here?" Before Old Zhang could even get to the point, someone patted him on the shoulder and pulled him into a nearby alley.

He looked the person in front of him up and down, as if trying to figure out why this person had suddenly appeared in front of him.

"Dude, don't panic. You're looking for Brother Iron Head, right? I can help you find him." The man's eyes darted around, clearly showing he had a lot of ulterior motives.

Old Zhang is a man of wide experience; he has seen many people like this, so he is naturally not afraid of them doing anything malicious to him.

He nodded: "Yes, I'm looking for Brother Iron Head. Our team hunted a wild boar in the mountains and wants to cooperate with Brother Iron Head, so I thought I'd come and ask him."

"Brother, if you know where Brother Ironhead is, take me there. If I close the deal with Brother Ironhead, I definitely won't treat you unfairly," he said, gritting his teeth as if he had made up his mind, "Next time I hunt a pheasant or a rabbit, I'll give you one for free. How about it?"

Upon hearing this, the man's eyes lit up.

No matter how much, it's still meat.

And it's free, so why not take advantage of it?

He glanced at Old Zhang, making sure the man looked honest and didn't seem to have any ulterior motives, before he felt relieved.

"Okay, then come with me."

He led Lao Zhang, heading into the alleyways.

After wandering through several alleys, Lao Zhang realized that the man was leading him in circles, probably because he didn't want him to know Tie Tou Ge's exact location.

Lao Tzu didn't say much, suppressed his temper, and just followed him.

After walking for about ten minutes, he stopped and said, "Buddy, you wait here, I'll go in and let you know."

Old Zhang nodded.

After the person left, he didn't move. Instead, he squatted down on the ground, took out a cigarette he had rolled himself, and started puffing on it.

The man who had just left returned, stood at the door, stared at Old Zhang for a while, and only ran away quickly after confirming that he was truly honest.

When Brother Ironhead heard that someone had offered to deliver meat to him in exchange for cooperation, he was overjoyed.

"Stone, are you really sure that person is alright?" Ironhead asked Stone repeatedly.

Stone is the guy who just talked to Old Zhang. He's not very old and has been working for Brother Iron Head for many years.

Upon hearing Ironhead's question, Stone nodded with great certainty: "Brother, I led him around the area several times this week, and he didn't notice. Just now, I pretended to come in and told him to wait outside, and he waited obediently without looking around. It's clear he knows the rules."

“Didn’t you say that a large amount of grain would be delivered to us soon? What we’re lacking right now is meat. According to that man, there are probably quite a few wild boars. If we can find out their exact location, I can take my brothers there and hunt them ourselves, which will save us some money.”

Ironhead gave Stone a thumbs up: "You're a good kid, you're really smart."

"However, this matter cannot be rushed. Bring him in first, and I'll talk to him and see what's going on with him."

Shi Tou nodded, went to the door, and called out to Lao Zhang.

Old Zhang followed Shi Tou into the small courtyard.

The courtyard wasn't small, and it turned out to be quite a hidden world inside. The large courtyard was filled with many haystacks, some of which were covered with tarpaulins.

However, according to Lao Zhang's observation, what's inside is probably more than just straw; there might be something more to it.

But he didn't say much; he had come here to ask Old Zhang for help.

The moment Brother Tie Tou saw Lao Zhang, he felt that the man looked somewhat familiar.

He scratched his head: "Have we met somewhere before?"

Old Zhang chuckled sheepishly: "Brother Tie Tou, you must have a bad memory. Didn't we just see each other at the entrance of the state-run restaurant today?"

"We even greeted each other back then. Has Brother Tie Tou forgotten me so quickly?"

Ironhead stared at Old Zhang for a long time before finally confirming that they did indeed know each other.

Unexpectedly, this person was so bold as to come directly here.

He took a deep breath and glanced at his underlings: "You all go and do your own things. I know this guy, I'll talk to him myself."

Since their boss had said so, they certainly wouldn't refuse.

However, the stone refused to leave.

He didn't want the duck he was about to eat to fly away.

Old Zhang glanced at him and smiled: "Brother, you brought me to find Brother Tietou, so I definitely won't treat you badly. What I promised before still stands."

Stone was happy, greeted Ironhead with a smile, and then left.

Ironhead watched his retreating figure and couldn't help but click his tongue.

"Uncle Zhang, right? You're quite generous, bribing one of my men just to come see me. That kid isn't someone who can be bribed with just a little something. What did you promise him?"

Old Zhang shrugged and told him about his promise to give Shi Tou a pheasant or a rabbit.

Iron Head Brother raised an eyebrow: "Uncle Zhang, you're quite generous. But what do you want me to do by coming here this time? It wouldn't be that my Xia girl sent you, would it?"

Old Zhang thought this guy was a slacker and no good.

However, it is precisely these kinds of people who are more likely to accomplish the plan they mentioned.

Since Xia Anyan trusts him, Old Zhang naturally won't doubt him either.

Immediately afterwards, Lao Zhang explained the purpose of his visit.

Before Brother Tietou could refuse, he offered a benefit: "My sister Yan said that she has some other things on her hands. Next time we meet, we can discuss a suitable price."

Even if there wasn't this thing hanging there, Brother Iron Head wouldn't refuse.

He truly accepted this girl.

Moreover, they are now in a cooperative relationship, so he'd be happy to help with something so simple.

"Alright, then I'll trouble you to go back and tell my sister. You two can stay at the guesthouse for the next couple of days. Leave the investigation to me, and I'll take care of the car too."

"By the way, if you come looking for me next time, you don't need to go through all this trouble. Just go to the entrance and tell the guards, and they will come to inform me."

Ironhead guessed that Old Zhang probably already knew where they lived, and even without anyone to guide him, he could probably find it by exploring around.

However, he had arranged for quite a few people around him. If someone misunderstood and harmed Old Zhang, it would be troublesome.

The two reached an agreement.

Old Zhang took out two ten-yuan bills and handed them to Brother Tietou: "This matter will definitely require your help. This is a small token of my appreciation. Please accept it."
