Chapter 237 Malaria 2
After getting the trap back, Xia Xiaoman kept his promise and let the three people go.
As far as she knew, medicines were in short supply at the medical station, and the three people were deeply injured by the traps, requiring debridement and stitches. If they were unlucky and injured their muscles and bones, it would be even more troublesome.
If they were injured in such a hot and humid environment without adequate medical treatment, they would most likely die from wound infection, fever, convulsions, etc. Even if the three of them survived, they would become crippled.
In times of natural disasters and chaos, it is difficult for people with healthy hands and feet to survive. How can a lame person survive if he is one step slower than others in escaping?
When they got home, Maodan whined for a long time, as if complaining that Xia Xiaoman had locked him up. Xia Xiaoman scratched his chin and said to him, "I'll take you for a ride in a couple of days."
Xia Xiaoman didn't intend to expose himself and make direct transactions with Li Yu'e, Sun Qing and others in order to give the medicine.
Although she had a good relationship with Li Yu'e, Sun Qing and Wang Shijin, she didn't want them to know that she had the medicine. If the medicine she sold to them ran out and they came to her to buy more, would she give it to them or not?
If she didn't give the medicine when people's lives were at stake, and someone died, Li Yu'e and the others would blame her to some extent. If she gave the medicine, she only had so much medicine, what if she herself got malaria and had no medicine?
The best way is to sell the medicine as a stranger.
After staying at home for a few days and waiting for the malaria incident to be exposed, Xia Xiaoman took Maodan out.
After leaving the community, she found an empty alley, took out the SUV, changed into men's clothes, and drove the SUV to the community where Li Yu'e lived.
No one has ever seen this SUV except Chen Guangli and the guy with ponytail who sold it to her. If she drives out in this car, probably no one will recognize her.
Driving to the gate of the community where Li Yu'e lived, Xia Xiaoman rolled down the car window and threw a paper ball at the gatekeeper. The man was hit by the paper ball and thought someone was provoking him, so he rushed over with a machete. Before he could take two steps, Xia Xiaoman stepped on the accelerator and drove away.
After chasing the SUV for a while, the man went back to pick up the paper with a look of reluctance and cursing. He originally wanted to keep it as toilet paper, but when he opened it and saw the contents, he was immediately shocked and hurriedly ran to find Li Yu'e and the others with the paper.
The content on the paper was simple and clear, with just one sentence: '1,380 boxes of malaria treatment drugs, prepare 50 kilograms of gold, and trade at the square in front of the forest park in 2 hours.'
Xia Xiaoman was not afraid that Li Yu'e and the others would not come. The malaria issue was a hot topic now, and Li Yu'e had thousands of people under her control. The more than a thousand boxes of medicine were probably not enough for them to share. Li Yu'e would definitely send someone to inquire about the situation.
She didn't sell it at a high price, nor did she sell it at a too low price. If the price was too low, anyone with a discerning eye would think it was a trap. This price was the purchase price a few days before the transaction, and Li Yu'e and her team could afford it.
Moreover, all she wanted was gold, which was more convenient than asking for food or other supplies, and would not have much impact on Li Yu'e and the others.
After waiting in the square for about an hour, Li Yu'e indeed sent someone, but she didn't expect that the person sent was Wen Xu.
The guy pretended to be chased and stumbled towards her car, probably to get information.
Xia Xiaoman held his forehead in silence, rolled down the car window, reached out and pulled the arrow on his wrist. A thin steel needle flew out with a whoosh and hit Wen Xu's feet.
Wen Xu froze in place. After coming to his senses, he cried to Xia Xiaoman, "Uncle, don't kill me. I'm just passing by. My home is in the building in front!"
Xia Xiaoman didn't say anything, but pulled the arrow on his sleeve again, telling him with his action that if he dared to take another step forward, he would be nailed to a sieve.
Wen Xu lost the first battle, and Wen Ling came to save the situation. Wen Ling's acting skills were much better than Wen Xu's, and she played the role vividly. Unfortunately, they didn't know that the person sitting in the car was Xia Xiaoman, who was familiar with them. No matter how many reasons they gave or how pitiful they acted, Xia Xiaoman would not allow them to move forward.
Unable to find out any information, Wen Xu and Wen Ling walked back in despair. Li Yu'e and Su Ran were hiding at the corner, and when they saw them coming, they asked, "How is it? Did you find out any useful information?"
The twins shook their heads in unison. "The people in the car are too vigilant. They won't allow us to go through. If we force our way forward, they will shoot steel needles at us."
Wen Ling thought for a moment and said, "But I don't think he has any bad intentions. If it was a trap, when we were walking forward just now, he wouldn't have just shot the needles at the ground, but at me and my brother."
Li Yu'e frowned. The words on the paper were written crookedly, and she couldn't guess whose handwriting it was. She didn't seem to know the man driving the SUV. Could he be Wen Jianfeng's friend?
"Give me the gold." Li Yu'e took the cloth bag filled with gold and told Su Ran, "Be alert. If you find anything wrong, shoot immediately."
Su Ran frowned and said, "Why don't I go?"
Li Yu'e shook her head and refused, "No, I'm more suitable to go. When the other party sees that I'm a woman, they might let down their guard." As she said that, she picked up the cloth bag and approached the off-road vehicle.
Inside the SUV, Xia Xiaoman patted Maodan's head and told it to hide under the car mat to avoid being discovered by Li Yu'e.
Seeing Li Yu'e coming over, Xia Xiaoman motioned for her to open the cloth bag. After making sure that there was gold inside, she stretched out her hand, pointed to a corner not far away, and motioned for her to throw the gold there.
That corner was surrounded by walls on three sides, with only one exit. If you went in to pick up the gold, you would easily be surrounded by people.
Li Yu'e didn't quite understand why she had to throw the gold in such a corner that was disadvantageous to the other party, but she still threw the gold in as the other party requested.
This is good. If the other party tries to cheat her with fake medicine, she can corner him immediately.
Seeing Li Yu'e throw the cloth bag filled with gold in the corner, Xia Xiaoman opened the car window and threw out five plastic bags filled with medicine. After throwing out all the medicine, she gestured to Li Yu'e, and Li Yu'e came over.
When Li Yu'e was about to approach, Xia Xiaoman started the car and backed it up to look at the corner. Then he opened the trunk and asked Maodan to get out and drag up the cloth bag full of gold.
Fortunately, Xia Xiaoman trained Maodan regularly, otherwise it would not be able to drag 50 kilograms of gold into the car.
The entire rear compartment was blocked by a wall, and Li Yu'e and the others could not see what was going on in the rear compartment. Seeing that the SUV was about to leave, Li Yu'e ran to pick up the medicine, and when she saw that it was indeed medicine for treating malaria, she raised her hand to stop the younger brothers who wanted to chase the SUV.
