Just as I checked the time, the door outside was opened.
Qian Wenqing came in with a lot of bags and wiped the sweat from his head.
It's so hard for him to sweat so much in such a cold day.
"Brother Xu, when did you come back?" He slumped on the bed opposite, exhausted after walking all day.
I spent the whole day walking and shopping, carrying things in my hands. It was so painful.
Xu Xiangyang stood up and poured him a glass of water, saying, "I just got back too. Let's take a break and go out for dinner together."
It's almost time for dinner, especially since the two of them have been walking all day.
Xu Xiangyang had almost digested what he had eaten at noon. Men usually eat a lot and digest food quickly.
Qian Wenqing nodded, took the water and took a sip. "Okay, let me rest for a while."
Qian Wenqing paid for the dinner that night. Although he had a subsidy, it was not enough for two people to eat four dishes.
This time I deliberately ordered some good dishes and two bottles of beer.
Xu Xiangyang was very satisfied with the meal. Although both of them were getting what they needed from each other, they couldn't just forget about eating and drinking, right?
Qian Wenqing is treating us this time, so why not treat yourself back next time?
The next morning, Xu Xiangyang warmed up the car first, and then the two of them put their things in the car.
This time we are here to pick up goods, and the things on the car are the most important.
After getting in the car, Xu Xiangyang watched Qian Wenqing check the cargo in the back, then said, "If we go back now, we'll probably arrive by midnight. Let's take turns driving, and this time we'll take the main road."
The main road is longer, but it doesn't matter if the ten minutes are enough. The things on the bus are expensive, what if someone wants to take advantage of them?
He had never heard of robbery, but he couldn't take it lightly.
Qian Wenqing was a little confused, "Why take the main road? Isn't it the same if we take the small road? We also took the small road when we came here."
Xu Xiangyang expressed his concerns, and Qian Wenqing just laughed.
"Don't worry, Brother Xu, we've walked this many times. If something like this really happens, we can't take the small road."
There was something else he hadn't said, which was that although the things here were good, they weren't something that would make people take risks, especially since they were driving.
If you see someone suspicious, can't you just drive away? How can someone run past a car?
We have indeed encountered this before, but that was during the three-year special period. Now we can’t say that everyone has enough to eat, but no one will go hungry either.
Therefore, Qian Wenqing believed that no one would dare to steal the country's things.
Seeing him say that, Xu Xiangyang did not insist. After packing up, he drove back along the same route.
On the road, Xu Xiangyang first let Qian Wenqing drive the car. As the driving became more and more tiring, it required a test of driving skills, so he let someone else drive at the beginning.
Qian Wenqing was naturally very happy. Who wouldn't be happy to practice? And it wouldn't be long before he could drive independently.
Xu Xiangyang sat shakily in the passenger seat, smoking and looking at the barren mountains and wilderness outside.
At that time, there were no highways, let alone cement roads, and the roads were bumpy and full of potholes.
But with this kind of road, if it rains, you will definitely miss the bus.
The soil hasn't thawed yet, so it's not difficult to drive.
At this time, Xu Xiangyang saw a woman slumped on the ground by the roadside, her clothes torn off.
He frowned and threw away the cigarette butt.
Qian Wenqing also saw it, immediately stopped the car and got out.
Xu Xiangyang glanced around, then carefully looked at the woman in front of him.
He always felt something was wrong.
Qian Wenqing walked up to the woman and asked, "Comrade, what's wrong with you?"
Is there any need to ask what happened? You can tell at a glance that she was robbed or raped.
Xu Xiangyang didn't say anything and still didn't get out of the car while sitting in the passenger seat.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Qian Wenqing walked over.
At this moment, six or seven men suddenly jumped out from behind the snow next to the woods.
"Don't move!"
The leader shouted loudly and ordered people to subdue Qian Wenqing.
"You! Who are you! What are you doing?" Qian Wenqing was a little panicked. He had never seen such a scene before.
"What are you doing?" The leader sneered, then slowly walked up to him and said harshly, "What do you care what we do? Go and open the carriage!"
Robbery?!
Qian Wenqing felt his heart go cold all of a sudden. This was exactly what he said!
Before we set off, we were told that we wouldn’t be robbed, so how come we encountered one right after leaving the city?
There is no village or shop nearby, and I guess no one would come here even if I shout at the top of my lungs.
If I had known earlier, I would have taken the main road. At least there would be passing vehicles from time to time.
It’s too late for Qian Wenqing to think about anything now. Money can’t buy you what you should have known earlier!
The woman who had fallen to the ground next to them had already gotten up, put on her clothes, and was standing next to the men.
It seems that they are together and setting a trap here!
Qian Wenqing really wanted to slap himself now. Why did he have to get off the car in such a dreadful manner? He could have asked in the car!
No, he would never stop the car if he encountered such a situation again!
"Big brother, we can give you the things, but please don't hurt anyone." Xu Xiangyang got out of the car with a calm expression on his face.
It wasn't that he was trying to pretend, but at this point, you couldn't run away even if you wanted to. Besides, even if you knelt down and begged, I'm afraid they wouldn't let you go.
If they can get into this business, don't even think they have a conscience.
As for why Xu Xiangyang didn't leave Qian Wenqing alone and run away, what would happen to his job after he ran away?
These people obviously want things, so why not just give them to them?
Although these are state properties, no matter how valuable they are, they are not as important as two lives, right?
They don't intend to kill you. If they get angry, who can control whether to be gentle or heavy-handed?
When the leader saw that there were other people in the car, he was shocked at first, but when he heard what Xu Xiangyang said, he laughed.
"You are a sensible boy. Open the car door quickly!" He had no intention of letting Qian Wenqing go. It would be easier to subdue him with someone in his hands.
Xu Xiangyang shook his head and said, "The key is with him. You can ask him to open the door."
The door of the car was locked, and there was indeed only one key, which was also on Qian Wenqing.
In fact, Qian Wenqing had already decided to abandon the goods to save his life when Xu Xiangyang didn't ask him to take the key.
But when I heard this, I felt a little uncomfortable.
After all, they have worked for so long and the things are so valuable, they will be scolded by their leaders when they return.
Although there is nothing we can do about it, who knows if they will be fired from their job?
"Hurry up! Go open the door!" The leader pushed Qian Wenqing, almost making him fall.
Xu Xiangyang stood aside calmly, trying to reduce his presence as much as possible.
But he is a living person. Even if he becomes smaller, people will still notice him.
