Chapter 71 Encountering Robbery by Brother Dao
Lei took a sip of his drink and asked, "Where did all these heads come from?"
Gu Yiye lied: "The militia brothers arrested him together."
Lei said, "No wonder. I can eat ten heads. I have connections to sell to state-run restaurants. Also, a bureau chief has a happy occasion at home and needs to hold a banquet, so he also needs meat."
"How many kilograms would ten heads weigh?" Brother Lei asked.
Gu Yiye said, "There are big ones and small ones. The biggest one is estimated to weigh more than 300 jin, and the smallest one is almost 200 jin."
Lei Ge did the math and said, "Right now, pork is a little over 70 cents a pound, and you still need meat coupons. So, regardless of size, I'll give you 220 yuan per head, ten heads for a total of 2200 yuan. What do you think?"
Gu Yiye said, "We'll do whatever Brother Lei says. We've been brothers for so many years, I know you definitely won't let me suffer a loss."
"Okay, when will the goods be delivered?"
Gu Yiye said, "I'll bring it to your house this afternoon."
Lei didn't press Gu Yiye about how he managed to get so many pigs to the county. It wasn't the first time he'd sold wild game; he must have his own methods.
After the two finished their meal, Lei took his leave first: "Xiao Ye, I'll go back and wait for you. Come over soon."
Gu Yiye nodded, saw Lei Ge off, settled the bill, and then took Lin Shanshan to the black market to borrow a cart from Uncle Wang. The two of them dragged the cart to a small alley, where Lin Shanshan took out three wild boars from her spatial storage.
The cart was small, only able to carry three animals at a time, and it took two people three trips to haul it all away.
The first two times, I released six large ones, and the last time I released four small ones. I managed to fit them all in, so I tied them up with rope and sent them to Brother Lei.
Lei Ge was very satisfied when he saw that the wild boar looked fresh, as if it had just been slaughtered. He readily took out 2,200 yuan and gave it to Gu Yiye: "Kid, not bad! When are you having your wedding banquet?"
Gu Yiye replied, "Brother Lei, come over and join the fun on the 27th if you have time."
Lei nodded: "We have to go."
After saying goodbye to Brother Lei and taking the money, Gu Yiye joked, "Wife, I killed only one of these ten pigs; the rest were all thanks to your Shennong Space. Looks like I'll have to live off my wife from now on."
Lin Shanshan knew Gu Yiye was joking, so she played along and said, "Sure, sure, as long as you're a good housewife and cook delicious meals for me every day, I'll earn money to support you!"
The two chatted and laughed as they pulled the cart back to Uncle Wang.
There was a narrow alleyway on the way to the black market. As soon as the two entered, Gu Yiye took Lin Shanshan's hand and whispered, "We're being watched. Hide behind me."
After saying that, Gu Yiye suddenly turned around and pushed the cart forward with all his might.
Lin Shanshan immediately obeyed and hid behind Gu Yiye.
As expected, a few people followed, and the cart bumped into one of the people who was following closely. The man cried out "Ouch!" and clutched his knee, hopping up on one foot.
Like a three-legged toad, it hops around and croaks!
Brother Dao came out and scolded, "Don't shout, do you want to attract Brother Lei's attention?"
Gu Yiye laughed and said, "So it's Brother Dao. Since you know I'm Brother Lei's brother, make way for me!"
Brother Dao laughed and said, "Sorry, brother, but you had too much money. I'll take the money and go to another city. I might as well quit Hongyun County. Be smart and hand over the 2,200 yuan to avoid hurting our relationship and to save your wife from getting scared, right?"
There are five people on Dao Ge's side. Gu Yiye can definitely handle them by himself. But now that Lin Shanshan is here, he doesn't dare to take the risk and wants to pay to avoid trouble.
He glanced back at Lin Shanshan, who immediately knew what Gu Yiye was thinking. She whispered, "We can't give it to them. If we do, they'll think we're easy to bully and won't let us off easily!"
"Don't worry about me, Yang Wenqing has anesthetic in his space, I can protect myself with it!"
