Chapter 337 Did you bring the diamond?
The fat man happily returned to his car with the things, and his family was overjoyed to see him bringing so many things.
"Yang Wei, where did these things come from?" Yang Wei's wife Zhao Fangxiu asked with a smile.
"It's something I got in exchange. Can the world fall down?" Yang Wei sneered and handed over the fried rice and peaches first.
"And fried rice?" Yang Wei's daughter, Yang Qing, took it with surprise and couldn't wait to open it. "It smells so good!"
Yang Wei looked at his daughter lovingly, "Eat quickly!"
Yang Qing opened the lunch box, picked up the chopsticks and started eating. The other box was taken away by Zhao Fangxiu and she started eating too.
Yang Wei sighed and took a peach to eat first.
The fried rice was delicious, and Yang Qing ate it with great satisfaction. She picked up a bottle of mineral water and gulped it down. Yang Wei felt a little distressed, "You should drink less. There are only five bottles of water in total. We don't know how many days we will be on the road, and there are three of us."
He didn't take the driver into account at all, and gave the money without planning to cover the driver's meals.
Yang Qing had a small appetite and didn't finish the whole box of food, so Yang Wei took the rest and started eating.
"Dad, did you exchange these things for money?" Yang Qing asked while wiping her mouth.
Yang Wei paused, "I exchanged it for the diamond I bought at Sotheby's."
"What?" Yang Qing screamed, "Isn't that my twentieth birthday present? Why are you exchanging my things for something else?"
Yang Wei's face darkened. "If I don't exchange this for something else, they won't take anything else. Do you want our whole family to starve to death on this road?"
"I don't care, you have to help me get the diamond back!" Yang Qing got angry and waved her hand, throwing the lunch box out of Yang Wei's hand, and the fried rice splattered everywhere.
"You!" Yang Wei was angry and raised his hand to hit his daughter, but he couldn't bear to do it.
"Mom, look at Dad, he took my things and wanted to hit me." Yang Qing's eyes were red and she looked aggrieved.
Zhao Fangxiu's expression wasn't very good either. "That diamond is worth over 100 million, and you only exchanged it for such a small amount? How could you be so stupid?"
Yang Wei was embarrassed. "It's been almost three years since the apocalypse. What's a hundred million? They're being generous. Otherwise, they might not even be able to exchange it for a few kilograms of food. If you're capable, why don't you go and exchange it? You just lie in the car and enjoy the ready-made food!"
"Dad, you can't exchange such precious diamonds for them. These things could be bought for a few hundred dollars before the end of the world, but my diamonds are worth more than 100 million!" Yang Qing pouted.
Yang Wei got angry. "You also know that this was before the apocalypse? Now it's just a piece of stone. Can it eat or drink? Not to mention 100 million, even if it had tens of billions of things, it wouldn't be hungry enough."
"If you're good enough, go ahead and exchange it. I have a box of money and a gold chain here. Let's see what you can get."
The two men stopped talking immediately. Actually, they both understood the truth, but they just couldn't accept it. Why should those poor people cheat them out of such expensive things and get these garbage in exchange?
Those people are really poor and bad.
"But Dad, Brother Xiao Jin said that as soon as we get to Licheng, we will exchange supplies for diamonds. There must be more than just these things." Yang Qing pouted.
"That's only possible if we get to Deli City." Yang Wei said helplessly, "If he's so kind to you, why doesn't he come pick you up? He wants us to find him on our own? If we starve to death on the road, can he revive us?"
Yang Qing pursed her lips and said unconvincedly, "He's busy, isn't he? I heard he joined some powerful organization. How could he have time to come pick us up?"
Li Fangxiu's eyes rolled. "Lao Yang, the person who exchanged things for you must have a lot of good things. Otherwise, we can go and rob them with the driver tonight..."
Yang Wei pondered for a moment, "They do have a lot of good stuff on their train. This food was moved from the rear carriage. That carriage is probably full of supplies."
"However, there are three of them, and two of them are tall, strong young men. I'm afraid we can't defeat them."
"That's too good for them." Yang Qing said indignantly, "When we get to Licheng, I'm going to tell Brother Xiao Jin about it."
"That's right!" Li Fangxiu slapped his thigh. "If Xiao Jin really likes you, you can let him do it. Doesn't he have an organization? He must have a lot of people. Wouldn't it be a piece of cake to just rob a few people?"
"When we get the diamonds back, we'll give it to him and ask him to give us the supplies."
When Yang Wei heard this, he thought it was feasible. It was those people who had cheated him so much. He had exchanged more than 100 million diamonds for only such a small thing. He would let them have fun for a few days. After two days, he would make them pay the price.
Yang Qing, Leng Yi and the others finished their meal and continued on their journey.
But along the way, I always felt like someone was watching me.
They must have been seen when they were giving food to the fat man at noon, and someone wanted to steal the supplies in their car.
In fact, there was nothing in the car. Yang Qing took them out temporarily from the space. There were some empty boxes in the car, but they were covered with tarpaulins so that others couldn't see them.
"It seems that there are many people keeping an eye on us. We have to be careful at night." Leng Yi said.
Wang Hao also noticed it and nodded, "Don't worry, I'll be on duty at night."
They had only walked fifty kilometers in the afternoon, so the three of them stopped to rest, and Yang Qing prepared to cook some food.
Wang Hao went to find firewood, Yang Qing took the pot to cook, and took out a few packets of side dishes such as pickled mustard greens and shredded bamboo shoots. It would be inappropriate to bring out meat and vegetables in such a place.
The rice smelled very good after it was cooked, which attracted the attention of people around. After all, it is very rare to eat a pot of hot rice nowadays.
While we were eating, a luxury SUV suddenly came from the opposite direction.
Everyone was going to Licheng, all in the same direction, so there were very few people coming from that side, not to mention it was a luxury car, which was very eye-catching.
The luxury car drove very slowly and later stopped in front of a van. Yang Qing noticed that it was the car of the fat man who came to exchange things during the day.
Yang Qing and Leng Yi looked at each other and both tacitly became more alert.
Xiao Jin got out of the car and glanced at the people next to him through his eyes wearing gold-rimmed glasses.
Yang Qing saw him jump out of the car happily, "Brother Xiao Jin, are you here to pick me up?"
A smile appeared on Xiao Jin's face. "I figured you guys would be arriving soon, so I came over to see if I could run into you."
"Brother Xiao Jin, you are so nice to me!" Yang Qing threw herself into Xiao Jin's arms.
Yang Wei was surprised to see Xiao Jin really coming, and was happy for his daughter. It seemed that he really cared about his daughter.
"By the way, did you bring the diamond we mentioned before?" Xiao Jin asked softly, stroking Yang Qing's hair beside her ear.
Yang Qing's face froze and she looked at Yang Wei.
"What? Is the diamond lost?" Xiao Jin's men pinched Yang Qing's earlobe hard. She screamed in pain and looked at Xiao Jin in horror.
"Yes, I used the diamond to exchange for supplies with others..." Yang Wei's face turned pale.
"What did you say?" Xiao Jin grabbed Yang Wei's neck and lifted him up with force.
