Chapter 535: The Fool Who Can Eat Two Chickens in One Meal

Sang Zhixia continued to stroll leisurely, while at the same time the Peng family was in dire straits and in a state of anxiety.

The lost goods were indeed valuable, but the reason that made Peng Yuanliang angry and lost his composure was not the money.

This batch of goods was a stepping stone that he had promised in advance. Among the people invited today, nine out of ten valued the good things that were about to be delivered to them for free, rather than their damn relationship with him.

The word has been spread, the guests have arrived,

Even the list of goods that should have been distributed to different people has been delivered to everyone, but the things are lost!

Such a large batch of goods was all robbed!

The banquet will begin in half an hour. In front of so many people, if I can't produce the promised goods...

Peng Yuanliang's face turned dark and blue. He was taking a deep breath and thinking of a solution when someone suddenly came to report: "Master!"

"The matter you asked me to investigate has finally come to light!"

The person who came to report the news spoke very quickly. Peng Yuanliang's face darkened even more after hearing it. He laughed in anger, "You mean, it was the work of Sanyou Farm?"

"That woman had the audacity to rob my goods just thirty miles from North City, and even dared to spread the news?!"

The newly replaced white porcelain clattered to the ground. The person who reported the news lowered his head in fear and whispered, "According to investigation, it is indeed so."

"Our people secretly went to find out where we could buy the items on the list. When the people from Sanyou Farm learned about it, they directly spread the word that their boss already had these things, and the amount we wanted was exactly enough, but..."

"It just depends on what price you are willing to pay..."

How could such a coincidence happen in the world?

The goods they have here were lost last night. Many of them are products unique to the south and can never be found in the northwest.

Peng Yuanliang had no choice but to send people out to find replacements, and he didn't expect to find the same ones in such a short time.

But the people at Sanyou Farm said they had them, and the quantity was exactly the same as the batch of goods that Peng Yuanliang lost.

This is no longer a slap in the face.

This is a naked humiliation!

Peng Yuanliang's eyes turned red with rage. He huffed like a trapped animal, murderous intent blazing from his eyes. "Are you sure it was Sanyou Farm that released the news?"

"Sure."

"but……"

The person who spoke quickly glanced at Peng Yuanliang's expression and said softly, "But the scene of last night's crime was cleaned up very well. Our people searched it carefully and found no trace of the murderer. We have no evidence."

If there is evidence in hand, then whether it is to report to the police or to seek revenge, it can be done with justification today. Even if the things promised to others cannot be produced, the guilt can be shifted away, and Sanyou Farm can be pulled into opposition to everyone and further suppressed.

But they didn't.

Without evidence, words are not enough.

You can retaliate as you please in private, but you can't do anything in public.

Various thoughts raced through Peng Yuanliang's mind, and he said gloomily, "Besides Sanyou Farm, is there anywhere else I can buy what I need?"

"This... is difficult to reply to the master."

As if afraid of being vented on, the person who replied rested his head on the cold tile floor and said bitterly, "Sanyou Farm is the most abundant grain producer in the three northwestern cities, and it also has the most shops."

"If we want to avoid it completely, it will take a lot longer, and it will be difficult to gather them within three or two months."

It's too late.

Peng Yuanliang can't afford to delay any longer.

The moment he touched the spider web, Peng Yuanliang's anger subsided a little, and he suddenly understood the woman's intention.

This is not only a provocation and humiliation, it is also revenge.

They had spread a big net, just waiting for him to jump in with real money.

Of course, Peng Yuanliang could also refuse to join the network, as long as he could afford to lose this person and endure the pain of delaying time...

Peng Yuanliang opened and closed his eyes repeatedly, then forced himself to regain his composure after a moment: "This is a special time, isn't it just because I want the money?"

"Help her."

"But my money might burn her hands if she took it. I just hope she can still enjoy it!"

The people who received Peng Yuanliang's order walked out quickly and rushed to the place where they got the news to discuss with the people left behind by Sang Zhixia.

At this moment, Deputy General Wu, who had been invited by Peng Yuanliang several times, finally arrived late wearing a black suit.

Peng Yuanliang personally went to the outer gate to greet him. Without waiting for Deputy General Wu to enter, he went out to greet him with a smile: "General Wu, I am very sorry for not coming here to welcome you."

Deputy General Wu handed the reins to his attendant calmly, and said with a forced smile, "I am just a reckless man, and now I am only a deputy. I am not worthy of the title of general from Boss Peng."

Peng Yuanliang didn't care about Deputy General Wu's indifference. He smiled a little more and jokingly said, "General, why are you being so polite?"

"You are here in the northwest, protecting this region. Your contributions will benefit future generations. It is my lifelong honor that you have honored me with your presence today. I deserve any honorific you may bestow upon me."

"General, Lord Liu and his men have arrived. Please come this way."

According to Peng Yuanliang's investigation, the relationship between the generals in the Northwest Camp and the defenders of the three northwestern cities was not harmonious, and could even be considered tense.

Therefore, these people were deliberately arranged to sit together, and the four of them were in the same room before the banquet began.

Peng Yuanliang personally led Deputy General Wu in. When the three people sitting in the room saw the person, two of them stood up and greeted him indifferently. Lord Xu, who had the worst temper, turned his head and took a look, and a sarcastic cold snort came out of his throat.

Deputy General Wu sat down with his horse and sword in his arms without looking around, but he didn't greet anyone. There was a look of disdain in his eyes and he did not hide his disdain at all.

Peng Yuanliang's lips curled up silently upon seeing this. After a few polite words, he was called away. Before leaving, he said apologetically, "The banquet will begin in a moment. General and the others, please stay here for the time being. I'll go take care of some mundane things and will be back soon."

Peng Yuanliang left, but Lord Xu was still rolling his eyes at Deputy General Wu, his words tinged with sarcasm: "General?"

"General Chen has been transferred back to the capital. When did Vice General Wu take up his official position? Why didn't I know about this?"

"What's it to you?"

Deputy General Wu twirled the small teacup in his hand, half-smiling, and sneered, "It's already quite difficult for you to guard your own little piece of land and be a good official. You, with your lofty ambitions but little talent, are you qualified to ask about this general's affairs?"

"You...are a reckless man!"

Lord Xu glared angrily, pointing at Lieutenant General Wu's face and scolding him: "You are a fool who can eat two chickens in one meal. You have no morality in your head. How can you be worthy of it..."

"What's wrong with eating two chickens?"

When Vice Admiral Wu heard about his shocking overeating at the Xu family farm, he bared his teeth in anger: "Eating your own food?"

"The chicken I eat doesn't even talk, why are you barking like a dog?"

"you……"

"Master Xu! Master Xu, calm down!"

Originally, this was just a play that was agreed upon.

However, the point of entry that Lord Xu made when he spoke was so novel that it left a deep impression on the people present.

Lord Liu thought of his heroic feat of eating two chickens in one sitting, and then thought about how both chickens had gone into Deputy General Wu's stomach, leaving him with nothing. He stopped Lord Xu from throwing the teapot at Deputy General Wu's head, and said in a strange tone, "But it's really unkind of the general to eat two chickens at once."

That was during a special period of great famine!

They all tightened their belts and went hungry for several months without eating any meat. They finally went to the farm to get something to eat, but it all ended up being eaten by this guy named Wu!

Lord Zhao stroked his beard and nodded in agreement, "It's also very immoral."

Deputy General Wu: "..."

There’s no famine anymore, but you still can’t get over the hurdle of two chickens? ? ?

"Eating two chickens at once?"

Peng Yuanliang, who was sitting in the back, learned about the quarrel in the hall and looked at him with a subtle expression: "What does this mean?"
