Chapter 2840: Make Them Pay Ten Times Back
"We don't know whether they will come tonight. Even if they do, we don't know what time they will come, so we can only wait and see." Zheng Peng said. He didn't want them to come before, but now, he really hopes they will come, because with Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting here, if they come, they will definitely be caught.
"As long as they come again, we will be able to catch them." Gu Ning said, feeling extremely unhappy.
I don’t know whether there are jadeites in the rough materials they stole, and how much jadeites there are. If there are a lot, it would be a huge loss.
After arriving at the construction site, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting watched the surveillance video first.
Surveillance footage captured three men entering the raw material mining site, and each of them carried a sack of raw material that weighed almost 100 kilograms, but they carried it away easily.
They came three times in total, and each time each person carried only one bag. Although it was not a lot, it was not a small amount either.
Because they were all facing this side, I couldn't see their faces.
They came three times and were discovered the last time. However, they were carrying such heavy raw materials that they still managed to outrun the workers.
It's obvious that these people are not ordinary people.
However, what Gu Ning is thinking of here is not ordinary people, nor those with extraordinary powers. Although these things are heavy, if people with the strength of Xu Jingchen and others were to carry them, they could still carry them as easily as they did.
Therefore, what Gu Ning was referring to here was not ordinary people, but just martial artists with powerful skills.
Then, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting went to the mountain to take a look.
Originally, Zheng Peng wanted to call some people to go with him, but was rejected by Gu Ning, because if the two of them went, it would be convenient for them to fly when they should fly and do what they should do when they should do it.
But if Zheng Peng and the others followed them, it would be inconvenient for them to act, and Gu Ning also said directly that the two of them were very agile, and if they followed them, they would have to take them into consideration, which would make them regret it.
After Gu Ning said this, Zheng Peng did not insist anymore, because Gu Ning was right.
In fact, the mining site is only about ten meters away from where they live, and because the mining has only been going on for a short time, the mining area is not very large.
The only thing is that when you start mining, you cannot start directly from the bottom of the mountain, because if the bottom of the mountain is hollowed out, the top will lose support and then collapse.
So, we dug from top to bottom in an inclined manner.
Since the incident of stealing raw materials, there are two people on duty here every night.
Because the supervisor of the construction site had already called Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting before they arrived, so they knew that the people coming were their own people, so they were not surprised when they saw Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting coming.
They didn't know that Gu Ning was their boss, but the supervisor said that they were the company leaders and then told them Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting's last names. Fortunately, after they arrived, they knew how to greet them.
So when they saw Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting, they also greeted them politely: "Mr. Leng, Miss Gu."
"Well! You guys take a rest by yourselves and don't worry about us. We will take a look ourselves." Gu Ning said.
"Yes," the two replied, and then they did not interfere with Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting.
However, while they were checking, they did not dare to lie down in the tent to rest and play with their mobile phones like they did before. Instead, they sat upright on the rocks outside the tent.
Currently, the excavation is taking place halfway up the mountain. About two hundred square meters of land have been excavated so far, and the depth is about seven or eight meters, so a lot of raw materials have been mined.
This hill has more raw materials than ordinary raw material hills, including jadeite, so when Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting approached, they felt a spiritual energy that was not too strong but not too weak either.
The spiritual energy is emitted like this, which can easily attract cultivators, demons, monsters, and monsters.
Thinking of this, Gu Ning suddenly paused. Could it be that the one who stole the raw materials was not a human, but a cultivator, or a demon or monster?
Thinking of this, Gu Ning directly said to Leng Shaoting: "What do you think? Could it be that they thought the spiritual energy here was good and attracted cultivators and demons and ghosts to steal the raw materials?"
After hearing what Gu Ning said, Leng Shaoting also felt that this was possible: "It is possible."
After the two arrived at the destination, Gu Ning first looked through the rough materials that were being mined, and then saw that there were quite a few jadeites!
And when you look deeper, there’s a lot more.
This means that there must be quite a few jadeites among the rough materials that those people stole.
Thinking of this, Gu Ning felt terrible. He wanted to catch them, beat them up, and then ask them to pay compensation.
"It's okay. Once we catch them, make them pay tenfold." Feeling Gu Ning's emotions, Leng Shaoting comforted her. She was not very angry at first, but now she became even angrier.
"Hmph! I must make them pay back tenfold..." Gu Ning said angrily.
Then, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting went to look around the mountain separately to see if those who stole the raw materials had hidden any tools, or were lying in wait somewhere.
At this point, the traces they left after stealing the raw materials are no longer important, because a day or two have passed and it’s not something that just happened. If it had just happened, we would be able to find them by following the traces they left.
Moreover, this place is all deep in the mountains and forests, and there is no surveillance to investigate. The road down the mountain can lead to so many directions. Who knows where they went and how far they went? The two walked around and found nothing, so they went down to rest first.
As to whether it was done by a human, a cultivator, or a demon, we don’t know for now. We can only know when they appear.
No matter whether the other party is a human, a cultivator, or a demon or monster, as long as they appear, even if they are at the foot of the mountain, they will know about it and can stop them quickly.
Unless it was a cultivator or a demon whose cultivation level was equal to or even higher than Leng Shaoting's, but Gu Ning felt that this was impossible.
The houses on the construction site were very simple, but at least they were built with bricks and simply decorated with white walls and brick floors.
Because these were all multi-person rooms for employees, Gu Ning, Leng Shaoting, and Zheng Peng were all sitting in the office.
Originally, Zheng Peng wanted to prepare a room for Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting. There was an empty room here, but he just needed to buy a new mattress and other things.
But Gu Ning refused. It was uncertain how many days Gu Ning would stay here, and whether she slept at night would not affect her, so there was no need to bother.
So Zheng Peng didn't clean up and just sat in the office with them.
