Yun Huaying was looking for a middleman with whom she could have a long-term cooperation. In the future, when she collected wild game in the mountains, she could come to the middleman to sell the goods at any time. She would make less money, but avoid a lot of risks and save a lot of time for other things.
"Han Zheng, do you have any reliable acquaintances who are working as middlemen?"
"No."
Han Zheng shook his head. Although he had been here many times, he had been serving in the army outside for many years. The only person he had a relationship with here was Zhao Xuelin.
Suddenly, he guessed what she was thinking and said, "Huaying, I'll help you find a reliable person to work with later."
"I'll look for it myself later."
Yun Huaying didn't want to cause him too much trouble. Since someone happened to be coming to look at the goods, she took the initiative to greet him. "Comrade, our pheasants and rabbits are all alive. Do you want any?"
"You guys are able to get live game, that's impressive."
The man looked at the two of them deeply, but they were both dressed up deliberately, wearing hats and masks, and wearing very ordinary and common clothes, so he couldn't tell what they were like no matter how hard he looked.
"What's the price?" the other party asked.
Han Zheng quoted a price and added, "If you want all of them, you can save 20 cents each."
"If you give me one cent less, I'll take them all." The other party bargained.
"Okay." Han Zheng agreed.
When preparing to bundle the chickens, the other party made another request: "Comrade, you have to help me deliver the goods."
"I can't help you with that. We have other things to do." Han Zheng refused to help.
"My home is very close, just outside the east exit, only a hundred meters away."
Han Zheng glanced at him inconspicuously and nodded in agreement: "Okay, I'll send it to you."
It seemed that this person didn't want to buy anything either. He gave the money to Yun Huaying, then carried the other things and led the way.
Han Zheng followed with the bamboo basket and gave Yun Huaying a subtle wink, signaling her not to leave him too far later. He intuitively felt that this man had ulterior motives and was probably targeting them. What he was planning behind the scenes would only be known if he followed him later.
The two men followed the man out of the east exit. Just as they reached the door, they met an acquaintance.
It was the young boy who sold meat before. He no longer held the knife in his hand. He was eating with relish a fried dough stick in his left hand and a bun in his right hand. He looked up and saw Yun Huaying carrying the pig's trotter she bought from him. He glanced at the man leading the way in front, and then glanced at the game in the bamboo basket in Han Zheng's hand, and curled his lips.
The man leading the way in front paused noticeably when he saw him, with a somewhat flattering expression on his face, as if he wanted to say something to him, but he walked away without even a glance.
Han Zheng just noticed the little boy's pouting gesture and the obvious expression in his eyes. He also noticed the subtle changes in the expression of the man in front of him. Now he was sure that this man had bad intentions.
The young boy didn't pay much attention to Han Zheng and brushed past him. As he passed Yun Huaying, he said in a voice that both of them could hear: "If you go with him, the two yuan deposit you put in there will be cheaper for me."
Yun Huaying's eyes flickered slightly, grateful for his reminder, and she winked at him: "Don't worry, I will be there on time."
The young boy raised his eyebrows, looked back at the man leading the way, as if he was looking forward to the man's fate, and then walked away without recognizing anyone.
"Huaying, wait here."
Han Zheng was sure that the person in front was a ghost and didn't want to take her into any risk. There were people coming and going on this street, so it would be safest for her to wait here.
Seeing that he had noticed something was wrong, Yun Huaying admired his sensitivity. However, she didn't listen to him and deliberately moved closer to him. She walked side by side with him and said to him in a low voice, "I can protect myself. Three or five of these scoundrels can handle them. You don't have to worry about me."
Han Zheng's eyes lit up slightly, "Have you learned Kung Fu?"
"When I was a child, my grandfather asked a master to teach me self-defense." Yun Huaying attributed all her inexplicable abilities to her deceased elders.
Considering the Yun family's past background, it was normal for them to hire a master to teach her. Han Zheng raised the corners of his mouth slightly and asked her, "Does Fang Ziqiang know?"
"I don't know." Yun Huaying curled her lips, a sneer flashing in her eyes. "He often even gets my birthday wrong, how could he possibly be attentive to my affairs? But it's just as well. Without him constantly watching over me, I've been able to secretly learn many things that I can't learn openly."
Han Zheng understood that she had never displayed her medical skills, foreign languages, self-defense skills, and even other abilities in front of others, not even her biological father Fang Ziqiang knew about it.
At such a young age, without any guidance from elders, she knew how to be so cautious and low-key, and had a strong ability to endure. She was self-taught and full of talent. Such a character and intelligence are not something that ordinary people can achieve.
Han Zheng was about to say something when the person leading the way stopped at the door of an ordinary house and said quickly, "Huaying, act according to circumstances. Safety is the most important thing."
"clear."
Yun Huaying was not worried. After witnessing Han Zheng's kung fu skills last time, she felt that even if they went deep into the wolf's den today, she would not have the chance to take action.
The man who opened the door in front was a tall and strong bearded man. He was dressed very casually and had a cigarette in his mouth. He only glanced at his companions, and his eyes fell on Han Zheng and Yun Huaying behind him. He only glanced at Yun Huaying, and her pair of bloodshot and turbid eyes stared at Han Zheng.
He didn't say anything, but the man leading the way turned around and said something with a smile on his face, looking amiable: "Brother, I'll have to trouble you to help me take it to the kitchen."
Han Zheng nodded and followed him into the house carrying a bamboo basket.
The two of them came in, the bearded man closed the door casually, and followed them.
After taking a few steps, many footsteps were heard from inside the bungalow, and then five or six men of different heights and weights came out. They were all dressed similarly, but they all had a murderous aura, and their eyes were fierce and sharp.
Having witnessed the ferocious eyes of wild wolves during this period, Yun Huaying was not nervous at all when she saw the murderous aura and ferocity in them again, and waited quietly for their purpose.
Han Zheng wasn't nervous either. He put the bamboo basket on the ground and quickly shifted his gaze from them to the person leading the way. "Want to fight?"
"Brother, you misunderstood. We are all law-abiding citizens. We don't fight. We just invite you to come over and be our guests." The other party still had that kind and friendly face.
"This is our first meeting, and we have no acquaintance. I don't think it's necessary for me to be your guest."
As Han Zheng spoke, he had basically guessed their identities from their subtle features. Normally, if they didn't interfere with each other, he wouldn't meddle in other people's affairs. But if they messed with him, he didn't mind making them pay the price.
