Chapter 340 Warehouse Fire



Xu Xiangyang and the others stood in the courtyard. Hearing the argument between the two siblings inside the room, they all silently left.

Let's not stand here watching the spectacle; let's preserve some dignity for them.

Seeing that he remained silent, Lin Min said coldly, "Why aren't you saying anything? You already know the outcome, don't you?"

Her tone was laced with sarcasm and disappointment.

Regardless of what happened before, she has already been heartbroken.

What Xiaolin did made her feel even worse.

Xiaolin was speechless, the words of rebuttal stuck in her throat, and she opened her mouth but no sound came out.

Lin Min wiped away her tears and turned to pack her luggage. "Even if you didn't say you were leaving, I have no face to stay here any longer."

Although she was very reluctant to leave, after what had happened, she simply couldn't stay any longer.

It's better that they left; it saves them from being laughed at.

Xiaolin pursed her lips, then lowered her head to pack her things without saying anything more.

It's too late to say anything now, what's the point?

The two quickly packed their things and went to the courtyard, only to find it empty.

They all knew in their hearts that this was a way of letting them leave in peace.

Lin Min glanced at Qian Wenqing's room, then left with her bag on her back.

After the two brothers left, Qian Wenqing, who was standing at the window, turned his gaze away.

"Brother Xu, are we just going to let him go like this? I don't feel right about it." His tone was tinged with reluctance.

It seems that beating someone up just now didn't quell his anger.

Xu Xiangyang waved his hand, "One shouldn't be too ruthless. Although he was very mean, I will get my revenge."

It's clearly impossible to let him go like this.

After all, no one has bought this food yet!

He sneered, his expression sinister.

Qian Wenqing, who was standing to the side, got goosebumps on his arms and felt a chill run down his spine.

"You, you know what you're doing." He said that and then ran away, truly terrified.

Xu Xiangyang curled the corners of his lips, then his eyes fell into deep thought. Despite his seemingly easygoing demeanor today, he knew perfectly well what he was really up to.

Putting his thoughts aside, he got up and left the courtyard.

That evening, Xiaolin arrived at a courtyard with mixed feelings.

He knocked on the courtyard gate, and soon someone came and opened the door for him.

After entering, Xiaolin looked at the person in front of him and said, "Brother Wu, I did everything you said. Has my mother's job been reinstated?"

Hearing his words, Jiang Wu smiled and said, "You did as I said, but when did I say I would help you get back to work?"

His words stunned Xiaolin, who hurriedly stepped forward but was stopped by someone, as if afraid he would hurt someone.

Xiao Lin didn't care that he was stopped and said directly, "Brother Wu, that's not what you said before!"

"What did I say?" Jiang Wu frowned and looked at him. "What did I say? You did a terrible job, so whatever I say is true."

He knew that Xiaolin must have been discovered, otherwise she wouldn't have come out looking for them in the middle of the night.

Previously, they would only come out when they were selling goods; they never came out in the middle of the night or at night.

Xiaolin's eyes were a little red, not because she was about to cry, but because she was angry. "You said I'm incompetent? I did everything you said, what more do you want!"

Everything had been agreed upon before, but now things have changed, which he finds hard to accept.

Now that he's come to this, what way out does he have?

Jiang Wu ignored him, lit a cigarette, exhaled a puff of smoke, and said, "Xiao Lin, there's no reason to go back to this job. Can't you use your brain?"

It was all a lie before. You're only ever fired; you're never ever brought back.

That being said, Kobayashi had believed in this before.

If we tell him it's impossible now, how can he accept the marriage proposal?

But before he could say anything more, he was dragged out and driven away.

Unwilling to accept defeat, Kobayashi screamed at the top of his lungs, "You will pay the price! Ah!!"

Hearing his words from inside the house, Jiang Wu scoffed, "You think you can be threatened by me with that kind of ability? You have no principles!"

This kind of thing is all about mutual consent. If you regret it after you've done it, what more can you want?

"Brother Wu! Something bad has happened!" A voice suddenly rang out outside, and then the door was pushed open, and a person stumbled in.

"Brother Wu, something bad has happened!" The man kept repeating "something bad has happened," instead of getting to the point.

Jiang Wu threw a cigarette butt at him, burning him so badly he cried out.

"What the hell! What's wrong? I'm perfectly fine!" He was furious. Get to the point, why all this talk about being fine or not!

The man didn't dare to get angry, so he quickly said, "Brother Wu, the things in the warehouse are gone, and the small warehouse is on fire!"

"What?!" Upon hearing this, Jiang Wu immediately stood up and ran out.

The small warehouse outside was already engulfed in flames, and the others quickly used water to put it out.

How could a fire start in the dead of winter?

Jiang Wu was dumbfounded, then quickly ran into the large warehouse, which was previously full but was now completely empty.

I just checked everything, and it was all there. How could it be gone in such a short time?

Seeing it with his own eyes was truly heart-wrenching; he simply couldn't understand what was going on!

"Brother Wu, everything in the small warehouse is burned..."

The fire had been extinguished, and the others watched anxiously as a large crowd arrived outside.

Jiang Wu gritted his teeth; this was really going to tear out his nerves!

Unbeknownst to everyone, a little mouse had silently disappeared from the top of the wall.

Xu Xiangyang returned home, looked at the things in the space, and nodded in satisfaction.

Not bad, it made up for his 2,000 jin of grain, and there was still some left over.

These several large boxes full of Angulimala would be a fortune in another world.

I never expected they still had that much; they were truly hiding their true abilities.

Xu Xiangyang kept a large box of the previous batch of Angongmaru, and sold the rest, earning tens of millions of yuan, which he then exchanged for useful items.

He won't be selling these pills again this time, at least not in the short term.

Now he has plenty of money; he has so much money he can hardly spend it all.

But he knew that this money wouldn't be enough for many things in the future, and there would be many other places where he would need money.

Xu Xiangyang laughed. He had gotten his revenge. He just wondered if Jiang Wu's head was still hurting.

Who told him to provoke me? I already let them go, but he's causing trouble again.

...

With the Lunar New Year approaching, every household is starting to prepare for the holiday.

We look forward to the New Year every year, just to eat and drink well. We save money all year just for the New Year.

Since Xiao Lin's incident, Xu Xiangyang has changed locations. Staying in the old place is no longer feasible, so he has no choice but to change locations just in case.

This place is much larger than the previous courtyard, and the houses inside are also much better.

All five rooms were spacious, and of course, the price was good too—one thousand yuan!

Fortunately, the place is big enough, so it didn't cost much. One yard is equivalent to two!
