The four people lying on the ground were groaning in pain.
Hearing Xu Xiangyang's words, they were filled with regret.
After robbing people for so long, I never thought I'd be caught by this kid.
"We were wrong, please let us go," one of them quickly begged for mercy.
I just saw what Xu Xiangyang did; it was ruthless!
If this continues, I might get beaten to death.
Here in the middle of nowhere, if you just throw it in the snow, no one will find it.
Even if someone passes by and sees bloodstains on the road, no one will go looking for them. Who wants to cause trouble?
Thinking about this, he became even more frightened.
Seeing that Xu Xiangyang remained silent, he gritted his teeth and said, "Let us go. We are Master Lü's men. You should have heard of Master Lü, right?"
This was his last trump card. If this person disregarded Master Lü's reputation and insisted on killing them, he would be helpless.
"Master Lü?" Xu Xiangyang raised an eyebrow; this title seemed familiar.
Upon hearing this, the man nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes, it's Master Lü. We are all Master Lü's men. If you let us go, we won't rob you if you appear here again."
He tried his best to calm Xu Xiangyang down and make him feel that letting them go was the best option.
Xu Xiangyang sneered and said, "So what? Master Lü isn't here, and I don't know him."
He then remembered that Master Lü was the person Director Liu had mentioned before.
It seems they've been punished, but these people are still able to rob people; I guess it's some guy called Master Lü who got away.
The man felt a chill run down his spine upon hearing this.
Xu Xiangyang didn't waste any more words with him; time was of the essence, and he needed to get on his way.
He pulled out a stun gun from his spatial storage, knocked everyone unconscious, and then threw it on the ground and left it there.
After clearing the obstacles from the road, Xu Xiangyang drove away.
As for why they weren't silenced?
He doesn't frequent this area, so even if he were to take action, there's no real need for it.
Even if they encounter me in the future, they probably won't recognize me.
The main issue is that the author doesn't allow Shakespeare to participate.
Xu Xiangyang drove the car to a dilapidated house, put the car into his spatial storage, and then went inside.
There's no one around here, so this is the best place to enter the space. If you leave, you won't be discovered.
To warm himself up, Xu Xiangyang took a hot shower. Driving all day in the dead of winter was tiring, and a hot shower was very relaxing.
After taking a shower, I went to the cafeteria for a hot meal. It smelled so good, so delicious!
The next morning, Xu Xiangyang got up, changed into clean clothes, and then continued driving.
Because he was driving on the main road, he wasn't afraid of it being difficult to travel. Occasionally, when he missed a bus, as long as there was no one in front or behind him, he would put the car back in his storage compartment, walk forward a bit, and then put the car out again.
Look how convenient it is to have a space! A must-have for traveling!
It's a pity you didn't have that.
After passing Haicheng, there were noticeably more cars on the main road, and those highway robbers were nowhere to be seen.
It's not that they don't have them here, but that they dare not.
Because there are many cars here, some of which carry several people, if someone tries to hijack the car, passersby will help.
The success rate of such a robbery is almost zero, so there are no robberies here at all.
That evening, Xu Xiangyang also boarded the truck at the government office. After all, the letter of introduction and other documents he carried belonged to the truck.
If you are stopped and questioned, how do you explain where your car came from?
Trucks are naturally not as fast as cars, so the journey took about three days.
Once we arrived in the south, the weather changed noticeably. Calling it summer would be an exaggeration; springtime was more like it.
With no snow, driving is easier, and the roads are wider.
Upon arriving at his destination, Shanghai, he parked his car in the courtyard of a designated state-run hotel.
I'll let my company know in a bit, and someone will come to contact him.
The purpose of this trip is to pick up some spare parts. The grain bureau needs too many things, and some of the machinery is old, but we can't replace it with new ones.
With the country facing such tight budgets, we need to conserve resources, so we have to buy spare parts. However, some parts are not ones we can produce ourselves, so we have to buy them from other countries.
After calling his workplace, Xu Xiangyang went home to rest.
Although I've been sleeping well these past few days, it's not as comfortable as usual.
I sit all day at work with nothing to do, and driving all day is exhausting. If I weren't young, my back probably wouldn't be able to take it.
Xu Xiangyang touched his lower back. He really needed to take good care of it. He didn't want to have back pain all the time after he turned thirty. That would be terrible.
While waiting for others, Xu Xiangyang drifted off to sleep.
I don't know how long I slept, but I was woken up by a knock on the door.
He got up and opened the door, and saw a woman wearing a long-sleeved dress that reached her ankles, with black hair and bangs, and a blue hair clip on her head.
He's quite good-looking, with big, double-lidded eyes; he looks like a sophisticated person.
The woman was a little surprised to see him, and then said, "Hello, are you Comrade Xu Xiangyang?"
Xu Xiangyang nodded. "Yes, that's me. May I ask who you are?"
"My name is Gu Panyun, and I'm a purchasing agent from the grain bureau." Gu Panyun showed him her letter of introduction and then confirmed her identity.
Xu Xiangyang checked the letter of introduction and confirmed it was genuine, then asked, "Comrade Gu, when do we load the goods?"
He just arrived today and hasn't had a proper rest yet. He mainly wants to explore the area; it would be a shame not to see everything since he's come all this way.
Gu Panyun looked troubled upon hearing his words and replied, "Comrade Xu, to be honest, there are a few parts that they won't give me this time, so you'll have to wait a few more days while I go and check again."
She arrived early and had purchased most of the items, but she still hadn't bought the main accessories.
Now that everyone from her workplace has arrived, she's starting to get a little anxious.
Xu Xiangyang didn't think much of it. He knew there were many things involved in any job, and he had never done procurement in this era before.
So, I'll wait a few days. It'll be a good opportunity to go and explore, and see the prosperity of Shanghai.
"Okay, then contact me when you've finished purchasing. I'll be staying here for the time being."
After the two made their agreement, Gu Panyun left; she still needed to go and check on things.
Xu Xiangyang glanced at the time; it was already four o'clock in the afternoon, so there was no point in going out now.
It's alright for having a meal, though.
He changed into a white shirt and black pants, then turned and went out. This outfit is very common here, unlike in the new city.
The new city is generally covered in dark blue, dark gray, and black coats.
White shirts and plaid shirts are quite common here, and long skirts like Gu Panyun's are also popular among women.
Three- and five-story buildings are everywhere on the streets, as are the grand hotels and guesthouses built before the founding of the People's Republic of China. Now they are all state-owned and look very impressive.
This five-story building is much better than the two-story hotel he was staying in.
