Chapter 251: Touching Porcelain
Gao Mingcheng was quite lucky. The weather changed just as the sweet potato flour was dried.
It was cloudy, the light was dim, and the temperature dropped, but there was still no rain.
Many people looked up at the sky, hoping that the thin layer of dark clouds would bring rain soon, but it never rained.
In this gloomy weather, Xiao Jinfeng, who had not been seen for a while, appeared at Gao Mingcheng's door.
The moment he saw Xiao Jinfeng, Gao Mingcheng was stunned for a few seconds, then he welcomed Xiao Jinfeng into the main room and asked him to sit down.
"Brother Xiao, how come you have time to come to see me today? I haven't thanked you in person for the tangerine saplings and oranges you sent me last time. I had a lot of things to do at home recently, so I haven't been to the county." Gao Mingcheng said, explaining why he didn't thank him in time, and then asked Xiao Jinfeng how much the saplings were worth so that he could give Xiao Jinfeng the money.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Jinfeng immediately waved his hand and said, "Between brothers, we don't talk about money. Mingcheng, I came to you this time because I need your help with something."
After hearing this, Gao Mingcheng stopped talking about money and said straightforwardly: "Brother Xiao, what do you need my help with? Just tell me. I will definitely help you if I can!"
This is how people get along with each other: you help me, I help you, and we are good brothers.
Xiao Jinfeng didn't bother to be polite with Gao Mingcheng and said directly: "A few days ago, I received an order to transport a batch of porcelain from JDZ to the county. As a result, something went wrong with the goods! The porcelain is fragile, so I sent a retired driver to transport it. It was fine all the way, but when passing Yingtan, something went wrong!"
Xiao Jinfeng frowned, suppressing his anger, and continued, "The car and the goods were seized, and Master Wang was beaten up. He came back and told me that if I want the car and the goods back, I have to pay money to redeem them."
Gao Mingcheng frowned slightly when he heard this and asked, "What's the reason?"
No matter whether it is a good thing or a bad thing, there must be a reason. With a reason, it will be easier to talk and do things.
Xiao Jinfeng said: "The other party said that Master Wang hit someone. In order to hurry, Master Wang drove all the way back. He was expected to arrive at the county at nine o'clock, but the accident happened at seven o'clock. It was getting dark at that time. Master Wang said that suddenly someone was carrying a piece of wood on the road. When he saw the wood, he braked urgently. He didn't hit anyone at all, and the wood almost knocked the car over."
"As soon as the car stopped, more than a dozen people suddenly rushed up, each holding a stick and looking very fierce. They said that Master Wang had hit someone and wanted to seize the car and demand compensation from him."
"The situation was chaotic at the time. Master Wang knew he had run into troublemakers and was about to beat them away, but he was hit on the head with a stick. He immediately saw stars. Then, Master Wang was beaten up and his money was taken away."
After listening to Xiao Jinfeng's words, Gao Mingcheng understood. This was a fraud! It was a fraud! There was a whole car of porcelain!
So he asked, "Brother Xiao, what do you think?"
Xiao Jinfeng said, "If it was just an accidental hit, and I paid the money, there would be nothing to say. But this is different, it's obvious that someone has set me up! I can't swallow this anger, if I really give in, I won't be able to pass this road anymore!"
JDZ is the Porcelain Capital. To get to JDZ from here, you have to pass through Yingtan. If you give in this time, this road will be difficult to travel in the future.
"Mingcheng, I came to you this time to ask you to help me hold the scene! Besides you, there are others, and each of them can fight one against three!" Xiao Jinfeng made his words clear, and then stared at Gao Mingcheng with burning eyes!
What can Gao Mingcheng say? Fighting is a common occurrence for him!
Ahem, it was a common occurrence in my previous life!
But in this life, he is willing to risk his life for his brothers, and he is absolutely not afraid of ordinary situations.
So he agreed to Xiao Jinfeng's request and said, "Brother Xiao, when do we set off?"
Xiao Jinfeng looked happy. He knew Gao Mingcheng's skills were better than his own. He had sparred with Gao Mingcheng before, and although they ended in a draw, he was out of breath, while Gao Mingcheng's breathing was steady, and it was obvious that he was holding back.
"Go now! Today is the final delivery date for that truckload of porcelain!" said Xiao Jinfeng.
The order we receive has a delivery date. It’s not too far from here to JDZ, and we can make a round trip and get the job done in two days. But for the sake of safety, the delivery date will be postponed.
When transportation companies were not developing rapidly, at this time, transportation companies had the upper hand and cargo owners were at a disadvantage. If they wanted to transport goods, they had to speak well with the transportation companies and give benefits to the drivers.
But when a lot of transportation companies appeared, the cargo owners gained the upper hand and the drivers' status plummeted.
Therefore, even if Xiao Jinfeng did not deliver the goods on the delivery date, the owner would not say anything. However, Xiao Jinfeng himself wanted to be honest and hoped to deliver the goods as agreed before the delivery date.
They just left without any delay, as there was nothing to take with them. Gao Mingcheng followed Xiao Jinfeng into the car. When they passed Xuanyu's house, Gao Mingcheng wanted to get off the car to say goodbye to Xuanmei.
It was already past ten in the morning, so Gao Mingcheng told Xuanyuemei not to go home to cook and to eat at Xuanyue's house as he had to go out to do some business.
Many of the beauties knew Xiao Jinfeng. After greeting him, they asked when Gao Mingcheng would be back.
Gao Mingcheng said: "If it's fast, then it will be in the evening, if it's slow, then it will be tomorrow. And don't cook for me in the evening, I will eat out."
"Okay then." Xuanyuemei responded, but she was not very worried about Gao Mingcheng.
In her heart, Gao Mingcheng is an omnipotent person.
So she stood on the small slope and watched Gao Mingcheng and Xiao Jinfeng go away. Xuanyu, wearing a confinement hat and holding her child, sat under the eaves, looking at the Yellow River truck with envy.
After Xiao Jinfeng met Gao Mingcheng, he went to several places to pick up people. These people had been arranged long ago, so they got on the car as soon as it arrived.
There was no room left in the front, so the people in the back just stood in the truck bed.
Gao Mingcheng saw that they were all agile and had a temperament somewhat similar to Xiao Jinfeng, so he guessed that these people were probably also veterans.
After everyone arrived, Xiao Jinfeng drove the Yellow River truck towards a small village in Yingtan with murderous intent.
There is a village about 300 meters away from the national highway, and in the woods beside the national highway, there is a Jiefang brand truck parked. The truck is covered with a tarpaulin, and under the tarpaulin is a truck full of exquisite porcelain.
There were two people guarding the car.
One of them was wearing an old army green cotton coat, leaning against a tree trunk with his hands clasped together, and said lazily: "When do you think that man will come to redeem the car? It's been more than a day!"
The other one was cracking melon seeds, spitting out the shells as he cracked them, and there were melon seed shells all over the ground at his feet.
"Who knows? They will definitely come! This truckload of porcelain is worth a lot of money! Besides, this truck is also very valuable! If the people in our village didn't know how to drive, why would we wait for them to pay? We can just drive the truck away and sell it!"
"Hey, how nice it would be if we could drive!"
The two chatted and expressed their feelings.
None of them knew how to drive, so the car was parked in the woods, and they forced the driver to drive over.
The person eating melon seeds finished eating all the seeds in his hand, patted the dust off his hands, and said, "It's almost noon, I'm going to go home to eat first, and then you can take over!"
"Okay." The man leaning against the tree trunk responded lazily.
Suddenly, a brand new truck came into his sight.
So he calmed down and straightened his back.
He had a premonition that the person who redeemed the car was coming!
"Dashan, go call Brother Yong and the others!"
"Okay!" The man who was eating melon seeds ran away, shouting at the top of his voice, "Brother Yong, the person who gives money is here!"
Soon, the doors of several houses in the village opened, and more than a dozen strong men walked out of the doors, holding sticks in their hands, and walked towards the roadside.
