Chapter 59: One Thousand Yuan Bonus
If Bai Yangfan knew this, he would definitely laugh at Liu Chan. "You're just trying to eat the kids' dumplings, aren't you? Why are you complaining so much? You're not ashamed of yourself."
After eating dumplings, Qihang went out to play with his friends for a while and then went home to wash up and go to bed.
Bai Yangfan sat under the moon to kill time. Without a mobile phone or internet, there seemed to be no better way than to sit quietly.
Just as she was sitting there in a daze, Lu Jingheng came. He had just returned from a long journey, and his eyes were full of excitement when he saw her.
"Set sail! The money is coming down."
Bai Yangfan was confused by the nonsensical words and asked casually, "Money? What money?"
After asking, he suddenly realized something and looked at Lu Jingheng in disbelief: "Are you talking about the bonus for the last batch of things?"
"Yes!" Lu Jingheng took out a note and a stack of money from his trouser pocket. "This time, your reward is one thousand yuan. I also have twice as much as you. Do you want me to keep the money for you? My place is quite messy, and I'm afraid of losing it."
This is actually a cunning trick. The purpose is to give the money he earns to the woman in front of him. He doesn't want to separate it from her so clearly, so he wants to use all means and find ways to make her have some connection with him.
"No, I just want my share." Bai Yangfan took the money and the note, but he was very excited. "So what you said is true. Working for the country can get bonuses. This is much more than what I can make from selling wild boars."
Lu Jingheng, who hadn't given the money away, squatted down beside Bai Yangfan. Seeing the glitter in her eyes, he immediately smiled: "Yangfan! You gave the country half a ton of gold. Do you know how much it's worth? This contribution is not small. It's only right to give you a reward of one thousand yuan.
Please keep the two thousand yuan for me! I'm on the go all day, what if I lose it? Yangfan! Don't you have a good place where you can store it freely? Please keep it for me! Or I can pay you for the storage fee, okay?
Knowing that this man was deliberately playing the victim, Bai Yangfan remained unmoved. He threw his money into the space and said coldly, "If you're worried, just deposit the money in the bank. Why leave it with me? I have no obligation to keep it for you."
The man who failed to hook up with Bai Yangfan stopped talking and silently put the money into his pocket.
Then he reported the good news to Bai Yangfan as if nothing had happened.
"Did you know? Those who attacked you were actually Earth Drillers. Yang Fan! You have such a sharp eye, you saw through their identities at a glance. It's amazing, I really admire you. I have to say, you are my lucky star. Whenever I'm with you, good things always happen to me out of nowhere."
(What is a burrowing dragon? I believe everyone basically understands it. It is a gravedigger. In some places, it is also called by other names.)
When it comes to Bald Lai Wu and his men, Lu Jingheng and his men interrogated him for just a few hours and he confessed everything.
Lu Jingheng enthusiastically shared Lai Wutou's situation with Bai Yangfan: "Lai Wutou is a man who does all kinds of business. As long as it makes money, he will do it, even if it means turning over the dead in the middle of the night. They have done countless frauds, deceptions, and petty thefts.
Relying on his brute force and so-called loyalty, he was doing quite well in the county. Currently, he and his men were indeed searching for some unknown tombs, hoping to find something in them and make a lot of money.
Unfortunately, I searched several places but didn't find anything good. Then I heard from my younger brother that a girl had 750 yuan in her hand, so Lai Wutou tried to take it for himself, but he got caught.
Bai Yangfan turned his head to look at Lu Jingheng, without the slightest bit of surprise in his eyes. Instead, he asked him very calmly, "Do you believe it?"
Huh? Lu Jingheng's gaze met Bai Yangfan's, and his mind went blank, unable to recall anything. The girl in the moonlight was beautiful, cold and ethereal.
The sparkling eyes locked onto him, making his heart beat with joy. At this moment, he truly felt the throbbing from the bottom of his heart.
This was the first time in his twenty-plus years of life that he knew what it meant to be moved.
If he wasn't afraid of Bai Yangfan getting upset, he really wanted to hug her tightly. The girl in front of him was so attractive that he couldn't take his eyes off her. She was very special and very beautiful, not the kind of passionate and unrestrained beauty, nor the kind of gentle and tender beauty.
Rather, it is a beauty as clear and cold as a snow lotus on an iceberg, radiating from within and giving people a kind of reverence that can only be admired from afar and not touched.
Seeing that Lu Jingheng was staring at him without answering the question, Bai Yangfan suddenly turned his head away and said nothing more.
However, Lu Jingheng suddenly realized his own loss of composure and the woman's displeasure. He subconsciously touched his nose and smiled happily.
"Yang Fan! Did you just mean to ask me if I believe what Lai Wutou said?"
Bai Yangfan: “······” You bastard, you ask a question even though you already know the answer.
Knowing that his behavior just now had annoyed the woman, Lu Jingheng restrained the smile on his face and began to analyze his own views.
"I don't think Lai Wutou's words are credible. I'll give him a hard time and then have them released."
He paused deliberately, wanting to see Bai Yangfan's reaction. He waited for a moment, but unfortunately he didn't see anything.
Bai Yangfan just sat there, without moving or making a sound.
Lu Jingheng had no choice but to continue, "I wanted to send someone to monitor them. I really wanted to find out if the place they found was the one I wanted to find. To be honest, I've been very passive over the past year or two. Because of the lack of information and the low accuracy of the intelligence, my people and I could only wait patiently.
We've waited a long time, but the person we were waiting for never showed up. While Lai Wutou and his men might not be the ones we're waiting for, I still don't want to give up on this line. The two neighbors who bought your wild boar last time have already gone back, and I have no idea why. "Raise the sail! Can you tell anything from them?"
"cannot."
Bai Yangfan rejected Lu Jingheng's request. Even if she saw something about those two people, she couldn't tell him so clearly. They were from the Alanweng tribe. Lu Jingheng hadn't found out what they were doing there, so why would he ask her?
Even if she did, it might not be the person he was looking for.
"Okay then!" The woman refused to speak, and Lu Jingheng couldn't force her. Maybe she really didn't know. "Yang Fan! I haven't eaten yet. Is there anything to eat at home? I'm very hungry."
Bai Yangfan was about to refuse the man's unreasonable request, but then he remembered that there was still a bowl of dumplings in the pot, which he planned to give to his brother for breakfast tomorrow morning. Since he came to give him money, he gave it to him.
