Chapter 81: First Robbery, No Experience

Andre felt humiliated. He angrily punched the wall and then walked outside the mall to smoke.

Those damn Oriental women, he would make them pay the price.

Little did he know that during his period of impotent rage, Luo Jiu and Zhong Jialing had already escaped.

After finishing a cigarette, Andre turned around and suddenly found that the two people had disappeared.

"Shit!" Andre stamped out his cigarette, rushed into the store, pointed a gun at the salesperson and asked, "Where are the people? What did they say just now?"

The salesperson was shaking with fear. “They just asked us where the back door was, and then went to the fitting room to try on clothes.”

Andre rushed into the fitting room, which was empty, with nothing in it.

He cursed a few words, ran to the back door with his soldiers, and split into two groups to look for her.

Unfortunately, he was destined not to find it.

Because Luo Jiu and Zhong Jialing did enter the fitting room, they did not go out, but went directly into the space.

Asking about the location of the back door was intended to make him think they ran away through the back door.

In fact, the two of them went into the space to have lunch and coax the child for a while.

Grandma cooked white rice and made a delicious chicken soup with matsutake mushrooms. Zhong Jialing also got some ready-made sweet and sour pork and stir-fried salmon. After the two of them had a hearty meal, they changed into fashionable Ying-style dresses and wore hats with large brims.

It was estimated that by this time, Andre had already chased for several blocks, and the two of them finally went out calmly to pay.

Then I quickly went to a milk powder store and cleared out all the more than 200 cans of milk powder in the store. I also replenished the milk bottles and some baby toys, clothes, etc.

The two asked the store clerk to help them move the items outside the store, and then quickly threw the items into the space when no one was paying attention.

The money Jones gave them was almost gone. For the first time, Zhong Jialing felt the embarrassment of not having enough money. "What should we do? We haven't brought gifts for Sister Qi and Yaoyao yet."

Luo Jiu stroked his chin and looked at the various shops around him. "Don't worry, just make some money."

There is always a bank near a commercial street.

The two were lucky. After waiting for twenty minutes, a money-for-hire truck came to collect the money.

Luo Jiu patted Zhong Jialing on the shoulder and said, "Let's go and get ready."

Zhong Jialing suddenly became a little nervous, "I have no experience, can we do it?"

Luo Jiu was amused, "Who has experience? Everyone is born wearing a mask and born to be a robber.

But think about it from another perspective. Cixi gave so much money, so it’s not too much for us to take back some of it, right? "

Zhong Jialing nodded, that was indeed the case.

Luo Jiu added: "Don't the foreigners always say the word deserved? This is what we deserve."

Zhong Jialing nodded frantically, "Yes! Rob him!"

The two men put on black jackets, put on gas masks, and threw four smoke bombs at the money-entertainment vehicle.

The guard who was putting money into the car had no time to react before he was shot with a tranquilizer gun and quickly fell down.

Zhong Jialing snatched the purse from his hand and threw it into the car, then immediately closed the door.

Luo Jiu knocked the driver in the front seat unconscious and threw him out of the car.

The two men got into the car immediately and drove out at the accelerator.

There was a bang behind him. Zhong Jialing looked back in panic, "Damn! It's my first robbery and I have no experience. I left a guard behind."

"It doesn't matter! He can't hit me." Luo Jiu was actually so nervous that his heart was pounding. He quickly drove the car into a remote alley, and the two of them entered the space together with the car.

When we opened the money transport truck, we saw a whole truckload of money, and every bag was filled to the brim.

A rough estimate is that there are more than 300,000 British pounds, which is the deposit amount of several nearby banks in a week.

Luo Jiu: "See what I said? If we don't have guns or cannons, the enemy will make them for us. If we don't have military pay, we will rob it from the enemy."

The two took some banknotes, grabbed a handful of change, and changed into their newly bought clothes.

When they appeared in the alley, all they heard was the sound of sirens fading away.

The police have searched the area thoroughly, but they can't figure out how a money-embargoed vehicle could have disappeared.

Not long after, the two fashionable girls returned to the mall entrance.

They stood by Jones's car, waiting quietly.

Until Lieutenant Andre came back angrily with his soldiers.

The moment he saw the two, Andre couldn't help but quicken his pace. Just when he was about to ask for accusations, Luo Jiu took the initiative to greet him and asked first, "Where have you been?"

Andre was stunned. "You...you still come to ask me?"

Luo Jiu raised her eyebrows, "Who else should I ask if not you? Colonel Jones asked you to protect our safety, is this how you protect us?

We are waiting here until our legs are sore, but you don't know where to go to have fun. Commander Andre, I will report this to Colonel Jones. You are going too far!"

God! Andre was mad with rage.

God knows that he searched almost all the nearby streets and shops, was so tired that he didn't even have time to drink a sip of water, and his throat was almost smoking, but he was accused of dereliction of duty.

He tried to open his mouth several times, but because he was too angry, his mind went blank.

It was not until Luo Jiu and Zhong Jialing got on the car that the soldier next to him came over to remind him, "Sir, shouldn't we go back?"

"Shutup!" Andre roared, startling everyone.

Zhong Jialing covered her lips and almost laughed out loud. She complained in Chinese: "He looks like he's sick. Is this Chao Xiong?"

Luo Jiu chuckled and watched Andre get into the car with a grim face, and they set off together on the road back to Liverpool.

The next day, Jones drank isatis root water while reading the newspaper.

The newspaper headline was a breaking news that an unknown person had robbed a money-escorted vehicle. Jones frowned and wondered: Is the security in Fog City so bad now?

Jones took a bite of the poppy-flavored beef dumplings and said to Marian, "There has been some unrest in Fog City recently. If you go into the city, bring more people with you."

*

Since becoming the Jones family's family physician, the four have seen a significant improvement in their treatment.

Marian allocated the guest rooms on the first floor to them, handed over the food to Cheng Yaoyao, and entrusted all medical matters to Luo Jiu. Jones paid each of the four of them five pounds a month.

In Ying at that time, the monthly salary of a personal maid or nanny was only two and a half pounds.

Although the salary was quite generous, Luo Jiu knew that they wouldn't be able to stay here for long.

Because the capitalists and the working class are naturally antagonistic. It is impossible for them to work here for a lifetime.

Moreover, Jones only paid the workers 20 pence a month. 20 pence could only buy two bags of sugar, which was not enough for the workers to send home for household expenses.

This salary was completely different from the contract the workers had signed. Comprador Yang had promised them that they would get at least ten pounds a month, but in the end they got less than half of that.

The workers reported the issue to Feng Qi, the leader of the only existing gang in Liverpool, the National Salvation Team, and asked her to help negotiate the salary issue.

Feng Qi took three people to find Jones, but only got one sentence in return.

"This is what they deserve." Jones said calmly: "In England, 90% of the labor camps do not pay wages. I gave them 20 pence for your sake. You should thank me."

After listening to Zhong Jialing's translation, Feng Qi was shocked and asked, "Is it possible that they only deserve such a small amount of money for working long hours every day?"

After listening to Cheng Yaoyao's translation, Jones' face darkened. "It's already a lot. You know, I didn't have to give it."

Feng Qi gritted his teeth in anger, "I could have just killed you, you know that?"
