Chapter 496: Forced to be on the same boat
The day after Wu Jun returned from General Wan, he received an official notice of taking office.
He was appointed as the head of an armed group sent abroad.
Wu Jun was so happy that he ran to tell Yang Lianhai, "Go tell Yao Tao, I'll treat you today!"
"Go find her yourself." Yang Lianhai just lowered his head and worked.
Wu Jun seemed to sense something, "Could it be that you and Yao Tao are having a quarrel?"
Yang Lianhai paused with his pen and made a mistake in writing a word. "You think too much." He tore off the paper, crumpled it up and threw it into the wastebasket.
Wu Jun seemed to have discovered a new world. "No, no, there must be something wrong here. Hahaha, let me guess... Did you say something wrong and made Miss Yao Tao angry?"
"You are the one with a mean mouth." Yang Lianhai retorted.
Wu Jun was not angry after being scolded. Instead, he came forward with a playful smile and said, "Old Yang, you have come to this day too. Hahahaha!"
The pen in Yang Lianhai's hand suddenly poked Wu Jun's back of the hand.
"Ahhhhh!" Wu Jun jumped up in pain, shaking his hands repeatedly. "Old Yang, you are so inhumane! Is this how you treat the head of the dispatched armed forces? I am now your equal!"
"Let's fight if you don't agree?" Yang Lianhai put down his pen and moved his shoulders and wrists.
Wu Jun's eyes widened. "Something's wrong, Old Yang! You never used to be violent."
"Because I know you haven't recovered from your injury yet. If I don't fight you now, you won't have another chance in the future." Yang Lianhai stood up without changing his expression.
In terms of fighting strength, the military troops who come from military backgrounds are superior.
But Yang Lianhai's advantage lies in his intelligence, and he knows very well what the weaknesses of the Wu army are.
Even if Wu Jun was not injured, he would not be able to gain any advantage in a fight with Yang Lianhai.
Moreover, Yang Lianhai is a civilian, so it is not shameful for him to lose.
But if the Wu army loses, it will be a huge loss of face.
If a military officer cannot defeat a civilian, it would be laughed at if the news got out.
Wu Jun immediately admitted his mistake, "Okay, okay, you're awesome. I'm injured and I won't argue with you. I'll go find Yao Tao myself, okay?"
He went to the grocery store, but as soon as he arrived at the market, he saw a group of people gathered outside Yao Tao's grocery store, making a lot of noise.
A large group of people gathered there to watch the fun.
Wu Jun squeezed into the crowd.
"...She's the one who killed our young master. We, the business, are irreconcilable with her. Anyone who dares to buy something from her store from now on is going against us!"
A man in his fifties, with a group of subordinates, was giving orders to Yao Tao's store.
The members of the Security Corps were not far away, but this time they did not come forward.
Wu Jun did not show up immediately, but hid in the crowd, his eyes rolling around, "So that's how it is... Old Yang is really an old fox."
He muttered to himself.
Yao Tao was in the store, but she did not come out to confront the merchants, nor did she try to drive them away.
As long as they don't enter her store, the bodyguards of Wen Jiming's team will not take action.
Yao Tao was teaching Doudou to read in the store, Grandma Lu was doing needlework, and Grandpa Lu was fiddling with his carpentry work.
It was as if the commotion outside the store had nothing to do with them.
The merchants also understood that as long as they didn't enter Yao Tao's store, Yao Tao couldn't do anything to them.
The merchant's people continued to denounce Yao Tao's various "crimes". Many people who wanted to go to Yao Tao's store to buy things were stopped by the merchant's men and threatened and intimidated.
Most of the people who come to the market to buy things are ordinary survivors, and they dare not offend people from big families.
Although the things in Yao Tao's store are cheap and good, they dare not enter the store in front of the merchant.
The longer the merchants are stuck in traffic on the roadside, the slower the business in Yao Tao's store will be.
Yao Tao gave Doudou some homework and asked him to copy the new words carefully.
Doudou asked her quietly, "Sister, why didn't the security team help us today?"
"It's not that they don't want to help, but they are waiting for me to take the initiative to ask them for help." Yao Tao said lightly.
Yang Lianhai played this trick on her, which made her unhappy.
On the surface, Yang Lianhai killed Shang Hao to help her.
But in reality, he was forcibly tying her to his boat.
She and he have always had a cooperative relationship.
Perhaps it was because they became too close after saving Wu Jun, which made Yang Lianhai feel that their relationship could be even closer.
But the way he did it displeased her.
She knew that Yang Lianhai was waiting for her to ask him for help first.
As long as she asked, Yang Lianhai would definitely help her.
But this time, she didn't want to speak.
