Chapter 235 Oil Rat
Gao Mingcheng ran quickly and rushed out from another direction. He stretched out his foot and tripped the unsuspecting thief to the ground.
The thief was responsible for carrying the herbs onto the pickup truck. At this moment, he was carrying a bag of herbs on his shoulders and running quickly towards the pickup truck.
"Ouch." After falling down, the thief groaned in pain. Just as he was about to get up, he felt an extra foot on his body. The foot stepped on his body, as if a Mount Tai was pressing on him, making him unable to move!
"Where are you going to escape, you thief!" Gao Mingcheng shouted righteously and revealed his identity at the same time, so as to avoid being accidentally killed by Tiedan with a gun in the dark.
"Someone is stealing medicinal herbs, come quickly!" Gao Mingcheng shouted, attracting the car guards who were awakened by the gunshots to run over here to check the situation.
Since guns have been fired, it must be a serious matter.
At this time, Gao Mingcheng saw the monkey escape from the chaos again. He didn't take anything and his body was very agile. After getting out of the convoy, he ran towards the pickup truck parked on the side.
Obviously, he wanted to escape.
There were already four bags of medicinal herbs on the pickup truck. If they were all ginseng, that would be a considerable amount of money.
Ginseng is much more famous than Ganoderma lucidum, and Ganoderma lucidum is not a fake thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum because it is an annual fungus. But ginseng is different. Some wild ginseng can be hundreds of years old.
If it is garden ginseng or forest ginseng, it will take at least three years to grow. It cannot become medicine without three years.
Last year at this medicine trade fair, one kilogram of ginseng cost two hundred yuan, but those ginsengs were general goods, not top-quality goods. If they were top-quality goods, the price would have gone up.
Gao Mingcheng had decided to do this favor and take the lead, so of course he couldn't let the monkey escape.
When in front of others, he is always reserved and won't reveal all his abilities. Otherwise, with his speed, strength and explosive power, he would definitely attract some people's attention.
If he wants to take a different path, then he just needs to show off his abilities and people will naturally come to him.
At this time he sped up. If there were someone present, they would definitely think they were dazzled. They saw a figure flash by and catch up with the monkey who was about to open the door of the pickup truck!
"ah!"
The monkey screamed, and before he could react, his wrist was broken.
He half-knelt on the ground, trembling with pain.
"Brother Wang Tiezhu, this group of people has a car and want to run away!" Gao Mingcheng shouted loudly, attracting Wang Tiezhu's attention.
When we got together to chat before, we introduced each other to each other's names. The two people guarding the car were named Wang Tiezhu and Zhao Tiedan. Well, these names are very Northeastern.
When they introduced themselves, they said that they were from Fusong County at the foot of Changbai Mountain, and that their family had been growing ginseng for generations.
Just one minute after Gao Mingcheng captured the monkey, Wang Tiezhu rushed over holding an iron rod.
Gao Mingcheng pointed at the herbs piled on the pickup truck and said, "Brother Tiezhu, the herbs they stole are all here! This guy tried to run away just now, luckily I caught him!"
"This... Thank you so much, Brother Mingcheng!" Wang Tiezhu's eyes turned red when he saw the medicinal herbs on the pickup truck. He raised his hand and hit the monkey with the iron rod in his hand, causing the monkey to scream in pain.
The iron rod is solid, and it would be extremely painful if it hits a person.
People from the Northeast have a bad temper, and it's not easy to mess with them. But Gao Mingcheng still had to remind them, "Brother Tiezhu, take it easy, don't beat him to death."
Beating someone to death is against the law and the penalty is death!
Wang Tiezhu breathed heavily and finally stopped fighting.
He said to Gao Mingcheng: "Please keep an eye on it while I call the police."
"Okay!" Gao Mingcheng agreed immediately and did not get involved in other things. He just stayed here, guarding the pickup truck and the monkey. He had already earned this favor.
At this moment, he suddenly discovered that there was a faint light flickering in some shadows, as if someone was hiding there.
With Gao Mingcheng's eyesight, he found that something was wrong there, but he couldn't see it clearly because of the light.
So he took out a rope from his pocket, tied the monkey's hands and feet, and pulled out the car key from the pickup truck.
The key is inserted directly on it, which will naturally save time when you leave.
He put the car keys into his pocket and walked towards the place where the shadow was swaying.
As he approached, a man ran away quickly.
It was too dark and I couldn't see his face clearly. I only saw that the man was short and thin, with a slightly bent waist. He seemed to be holding something in his hand. He quickly shuttled between the cars and soon disappeared.
Obviously he was very familiar with this place, so even Gao Mingcheng couldn't catch up with him for a while.
Gao Mingcheng gave up the chase and looked down.
When he saw it clearly, he couldn't help but curse.
"Fuck! Isn't this the famous oil thief?"
I saw that the accelerator of the truck was open and some gasoline was scattered on the ground.
"Don't just stand there and watch. Go back to your cars and check. There's a gas thief!"
Gao Mingcheng roared, and the people who had run to watch the fun were scared and ran back in a hurry.
Gasoline isn't cheap these days!
Of course I was angry when the medicinal herbs were stolen, but it was also really sad when the gasoline was stolen!
Gao Mingcheng was worried about his car, so he ran back quickly. When he saw that his car was intact, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
This brand new Huanghe heavy truck was purchased by Xiao Jinfeng not long ago. Xiao Jinfeng said that a man relies on gold and a horse relies on saddles, so he specially chose a new truck for this trip.
If you stay here to guard your car and it gets damaged due to some other reasons, it would be a waste of time and effort.
The originally quiet night immediately became noisy because of these two things.
That group of thieves were unlucky; they were all caught and beaten half to death.
If Gao Mingcheng had not intervened, at least two people would have escaped, and Wang Tiezhu and his brothers would have lost at least several bags of medicinal herbs.
"My oil was stolen! I'm going to fuck him!"
"Chop off this damn bastard's head! If I catch him, I'll beat him to death!"
All kinds of shouting and cursing were heard, some were furious, some were relieved.
It was originally pitch black, but now as everyone has fully awakened, it has become bright. Some people light candles, some use flashlights, and the light shines everywhere, leaving no blind spots.
Soon, local police officers came over and took the thieves away after asking about the situation. As for the oil thief, there was nothing they could do about it. If they didn't catch him on the spot, it would be difficult to find him later.
The thief also left with Zhao Tiedan.
There were two reasons why Zhao Tiedan made this trip: one was to take a statement, and the other was to shoot with a gun.
Although no one was killed, several people's hands and feet were injured.
Although guns are not banned now, you are obviously not allowed to shoot anywhere, so if Zhao Tiedan does not have strong enough connections, he will have to hand over the gun in his hand.
After cleaning up the mess, Wang Tiezhu came to find Gao Mingcheng with two things.
"Brother Mingcheng, thank you so much this time. This pound of red ginseng and this pound of deer antlers can be regarded as my thank you gift." Wang Tiezhu thanked him sincerely and then presented the thank you gift.
He knew very well that if it weren't for Gao Mingcheng, he would have lost several thousand dollars this time.
Red ginseng is processed ginseng. Its medicinal properties are different from those of white ginseng. It has a milder nature and is suitable for replenishing qi and blood. It is very beneficial for women to take it regularly.
"Everyone in our village grows ginseng. These velvet antlers are from the sika deer raised in the neighboring village. We help sell them together." Wang Tiezhu added.
From his words, we learned that the goods in their truck were not only their own, but also other people's goods.
Then once it is stolen, the loss will be even greater.
Gao Mingcheng calmly took the thank-you gift from Wang Tiezhu and said, "When we go out to do business, we naturally have to help each other."
At this time, several people who had played cards with Gao Mingcheng before also came over. One of them said, "Brother Mingcheng, you woke up so quickly. After I was woken up by the gunshots, I just ran over there and you had already knocked someone down!"
Gao Mingcheng smiled and said, "This is a new car of mine. I didn't dare to fall asleep all night."
A few people started chatting. After this incident, no one wanted to sleep at once, so they simply woke up and talked to refresh themselves before going to the medicinal materials trading market to do business.
Wang Tiezhu was thinking about his goods and his brothers and didn't have much energy to chat with others. After thanking Gao Mingcheng, he left.
Looking at the recovered medicinal herbs, Wang Tiezhu breathed a sigh of relief, and then climbed onto the roof of the car to check if the tarpaulin could be repaired.
