Boss Xiong thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay, then I'll give you the money and tickets every time someone goes to pick up the goods."
"You count it carefully in front of me to make sure there are no problems, and then I'll have them take the things away, okay?"
Xia Anyan was naturally satisfied.
She never liked doing pointless things with people. Since this Boss Xiong was easy to talk to, she was easy to talk to too. She agreed to provide 1,000 catties of rice and flour every month. As for other things, it would depend on the situation, with a maximum of 1,000 catties and a minimum of 500 catties.
Actually, winters in Heilongjiang Province are very tough. To provide so much food every month, you need a lot of storage space.
The gang leader originally thought that his request would be difficult.
Even those people he had worked with before could only provide a few hundred kilograms during the winter, the season for hibernation.
Sometimes, they can't even collect 300 jin (150 kg).
But the fact that this woman could agree to provide so much every month made him wonder where she got all that stuff from.
Xia Anyan naturally knew that he had become suspicious of her, so she had already thought of a reason to explain.
"To be honest, all these things of mine came from my hometown."
Xia Anyan smiled and said, "My hometown also has black soil, and it grows a lot of grain. Moreover, our brigade leader led people to reclaim a lot of land in the mountains. No outsiders know about it, and we don't need to pay public grain taxes there."
"The captain gave these things to us to sell here, hoping to make some extra money. But after deducting transportation costs and other expenses, there's not much left."
“Brother Xiong, I’m not calling you brother because I want to get close to you, but because I want to tell you that all of these were grown by the villagers in our brigade, and then loaded onto trucks and delivered to us.”
"My price is really not expensive. If you think my products are good, then let's cooperate long-term. I can guarantee that the products will be fine. And don't try to cheat me on the money."
The eldest bear was so angry he laughed.
Is he that kind of person?
Since he has already agreed and given the money and tickets he was owed, he will definitely not renege on his promise.
However, after hearing this explanation, she had no more doubts.
Although the land in Dong Province is good, the planting season is very short each year. If it really came from another province, as this woman said, then it would be easy to explain.
"Okay, I understand. Don't worry, I, Old Xiong, keep my word."
After saying that, Boss Xiong left with his men.
As for Xia Anyan, he didn't care.
Even if this woman really went around in circles here, she wouldn't be able to find their core area, and he wasn't afraid at all.
Xia Anyan didn't intend to look around here. After finishing her conversation, she turned back along the path Wang Daniu had led her down.
The delivery date is the day after tomorrow, so she must now rent a small house or warehouse in this county town.
After emerging from the space, she transformed back into that young and beautiful young wife.
People passing by would glance at her from time to time, and some would even stop to take a second look.
Xia Anyan noticed the gazes of these people and became somewhat unhappy.
She took out a scarf from her spatial storage and covered most of her face before continuing to walk forward.
"Hey girl, where are you headed? I didn't see you at the supply and marketing cooperative earlier. What do you want to buy? Want me to take you there?"
Xia Anyan's hand was suddenly grabbed. She looked at the person next to her, but didn't recognize them.
Xia Anyan's face instantly turned gloomy.
She was certain she was being targeted by human traffickers; this woman was definitely up to no good.
"Do we know each other? I'm a military dependent. You're not trying to impersonate my sister and take me away, are you?"
Xia Anyan's direct remark startled the woman.
She only had these thoughts because the woman was pretty and she was alone, so she had some inappropriate ideas.
But if this person were truly a military family member, she would absolutely not dare to do so.
Just as she was hesitating about whether to let go, the military wife who came out with Xia Anyan happened to run into her.
"Xia Meizi, what's going on?"
Xia Anyan recognized the two women and pointed to the one next to her: "Sisters, she grabbed my hand as soon as she came up and said I was her sister. I think this person is a human trafficker. You should go and call the police right away."
Upon hearing this, the two women's eyes sharpened and their expressions turned serious.
One of them ran quickly toward the police station, while the other came to Xia Anyan's side and grabbed the woman.
"You're really bold, woman. Do you know who my sister is? You dare to come here and claim kinship with her, and even try to take her away. I think you're tired of living."
The woman realized something was wrong when she saw this and tried to run away.
Xia Anyan had noticed it long ago; she took off the scarf from her neck and tied it to the woman's wrist.
By the time the woman tried to run away, it was too late.
Of course, she would never admit to being a human trafficker. She gritted her teeth and said, "What's wrong with you two women? I was just trying to see if this girl needed any help, and you're treating me like a human trafficker?"
"Oh dear, everyone come and see! This is outrageous! They're trying to kill me! I'm just a woman trying to help, and they've detained me. I think they're the human traffickers! Please help me!"
Those around were somewhat bewildered by the situation.
But when people watch a show, they tend to side with whoever is weaker.
Now that they hear this woman say she was bullied, they will definitely stand up and condemn Xia Anyan.
"You two women don't look like bad people, so why did you do this? You'd better release the woman right now, or we'll have to take you to the police station."
Xia Anyan is really not afraid of going to the police station.
Their identities can be easily verified, and this woman will definitely be more afraid of going to the police station.
She shrugged: "Okay, then let's go to the police station. Then everyone will know who the good guys and who the bad guys are."
Xia Anyan showed no fear, and everyone around her was stunned.
So, was the woman who was being held down really a bad person?
Seeing this, the woman's accomplice realized something was wrong and quickly stepped forward.
"You woman, someone just came up to talk to you, and you treat them like a bad person. I don't think you're a good person yourself."
"Alright, alright, stop making a scene. Just release them. It's not a big deal!"
