Just then, the person who had been sleeping suddenly moved the stool.
Xu Xiangyang immediately entered the space without hesitation.
The man got up unsteadily, reeking of alcohol, relieved himself at the warehouse entrance, and then went inside.
He breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that his movements had woken someone up.
However, the strong smell of alcohol is really overwhelming.
Is this guy drowning in a vat of wine?
Seeing that no one was in the yard and no one was coming out of the warehouse, Xu Xiangyang quietly crept to a warehouse next to him.
There are only two warehouses in this yard, both made of wood. Because they are not ventilated and it is broad daylight, you can't see what's inside at all.
He looked at the warehouse door and saw that the lock was a common type that he could open himself.
In a few quick movements, Xu Xiangyang pried open the lock, entered the dark warehouse, and closed the door behind him.
He didn't remove the padlock; he concealed it so well that you wouldn't notice it wasn't locked unless you looked closely.
He took out his night-vision goggles and could see the contents of the warehouse.
Good heavens, this is even bigger than the warehouse he saw in the mountain city, and it has even more stuff inside.
There are countless items in high demand and short supply.
What kind of move is this?
Xu Xiangyang's eyes widened when he saw something familiar.
Good heavens, all the stuff that Director Liu sold off back then has ended up here?
This Secretary Cao is really bold.
He looked around and then left. He had only come to take a look, and now that he knew, there was no need to stay any longer.
Xu Xiangyang came out of the warehouse and had just locked the door when he heard a knocking sound.
He quickly and quietly ran to the side of the warehouse and then entered the space.
As he entered the space, someone came out to open the door.
Before Xu Xiangyang could even breathe a sigh of relief, he saw someone enter through the door.
"Holy crap?!"
Cao Yajun followed a man in his fifties into the room. Both of them had calm expressions and then went to the warehouse with the lights on.
Xu Xiangyang was somewhat surprised. What was going on?
I've never seen Cao Yajun come out at night before, and I've never heard of him before.
Why did this person start acting as soon as I left? Could it be that he discovered something?
Before he could think too much, he heard the door close.
Xu Xiangyang glanced at the gate, then quickly climbed up the ladder, and then, stepping on the wall, slowly made his way to the warehouse they had just entered.
There were some gaps in the ceiling. Xu Xiangyang found a spot and entered the space, looking inside through the gaps.
At this moment, everyone else in the room left, leaving only Cao Yajun and the man.
Cao Yajun sat down to the side, then started smoking and said, "Master Lü, shouldn't we settle the bill for that batch of goods from before? You're putting me in a difficult position."
After he finished speaking, he looked at the person opposite him with a smile on his face.
The man called Master Lü simply smiled and replied, "Little Cao, as you know, I'm a bit short on cash lately. Can you give me a little more time? I'll settle the bill with you once this batch of goods is delivered, okay?"
That's true, but nobody feels at ease if they don't have the money in their own hands.
Everyone's out here trying to make money, but after all that time they haven't seen any. What's the point of trying?
Cao Yajun didn't agree either. Instead, he paused for a moment and said, "Master Lü, why are you making things difficult for me? I'm in such a state now. Ever since Director Liu left, this path for me has been cut off. There's no way for me to continue making money."
Neither of them wanted to back down, but in the end, it was Master Lü who felt guilty, since he owed money.
"Alright, Xiao Cao, I've already paid for this one, but I can only give you half of what I paid last time. You have to understand me, I'm really in a tough spot." Master Lü made his final concession.
Cao Yajun understood all this and knew that this was the best solution, so he nodded in agreement.
The two made a decision, and Master Lü sent someone outside to fetch help.
A short while later, a man came in carrying a small box. He put the box on the table and then stood next to Master Lü.
"Little Cao, check if the number is correct." Master Lü pointed to the small box on the table.
Cao Yajun didn't stand on ceremony; it was better to make sure everything was clear in person to avoid future trouble.
After counting the money, he got up and went to the warehouse next door, and the others followed him out.
Xu Xiangyang glanced at the money box on the table, then smiled.
He took out a fishing rod from his spatial storage, cast the hook through the gap, and slowly lowered the money box up.
However, he couldn't get it out through the gap. He reached out and touched the box, and the box disappeared immediately.
Xu Xiangyang couldn't help but laugh, then put away his fishing rod, turned around, climbed down the wall, and walked out through another alley.
(This behavior is strictly prohibited and the consequences could be disastrous.)
Get the bamboo shoots!
By the time he found a place to enter the space, Cao Yajun's side was already in complete chaos.
After seeing Master Lü off, Cao Yajun entered the warehouse, only to find that the money box on the table was gone.
there is none left?!
What's going on?!
He looked down under the table; there was nothing there.
When he went out just now, there was no one left in the house, and other people were helping to move things. He was also watching outside, so no one could come in and take the money box away.
Cao Yajun's eyes were filled with anger. He then turned to look at the door. The others were still packing their things and had not returned.
There were no windows in the room, only this door. Could it be that the money box simply vanished into thin air?
He gritted his teeth, his jaw grinding, his heart filled with anger.
What the hell is going on?
Now that the box is missing, they can't say the money is lost, since the box only passed through his hands.
The thought of those ten thousand yuan disappearing just like that made him feel extremely resentful.
Xu Xiangyang had no idea about any of this, but he knew that Cao Yajun was definitely going to be upset.
The next morning, instead of returning to the construction site, he rode his bicycle to Qian Wenqing's place.
"Brother Xu, you're here again. What delicious food did you bring?" Qian Wenqing looked at the two large basins he was carrying and couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.
Xu Xiangyang chuckled, "I brought you some delicious food."
Delicious?!
Upon hearing those three words, Qian Wenqing almost jumped up.
"It has to be Brother Xu, he always thinks of me no matter what." He happily took the basin, but when he saw what was inside, his expression immediately turned blank.
"Is this cabbage and potato slice delicious?" He was speechless.
Look at all the oil in here, it's obvious they were stingy with the oil.
Even dogs wouldn't eat this stuff.
Xu Xiangyang glanced at him. "What's wrong? You're starting to pick and choose what to eat now? There are still two pieces of sponge cake here, want some?"
Anyway, he took out everything he had saved up before, but to balance things out, he also took out a pot of braised chicken pieces from the space's cafeteria.
Qian Wenqing looked at the two pieces of sponge cake, his feelings were very complicated.
Is Brother Xu saving this for himself?
