Chapter 431 Sheep's Head and Dog's Meat
Wanwan: "Damn it! When can we regain our freedom? I used to think that being forced into illegal labor as slavery was a distant dream, but I never thought it would actually happen to us."
Zhenzhen: "Keep your voice down, or someone might hear us. If they get upset, they'll definitely take it out on us again. It's already pretty good that they didn't do that to us. Maybe they even think they're doing a good deed by taking us in!"
Wanwan: "Pah, how shameless! But we did have some benefits from this trip. At least this time we were able to eat as much durian as we wanted. Even our burps smelled richly of durian."
Zhenzhen: "Yeah, I don't think I want to see durian again in the next five years. I'm really scared. By the way, speaking of durian, don't you think they're a little weird?"
Wanwan burst out laughing.
Zhenzhen: "It's hard to believe that you can still laugh at this time"
Wanwan: "I think they're really stupid. The flesh is obviously the most valuable, but they don't care much about it. They just pack and seal it and throw it aside without paying much attention to preserving it. On the contrary, they care about the useless durian shells very much and even send people to deal with them one by one. What a bunch of weird country bumpkins."
Lu Zhenzhen didn't say anything and fell into deep thought.
Wanwan: "Why are you acting weird all of a sudden? Why has the atmosphere suddenly become so serious?"
Zhenzhen: "What you just said reminded me. If I'm not mistaken, they're not weird country bumpkins. They're actually quite clever. It's a pity that they've set their minds on deviant means."
Wanwan: “How do you say that?”
Zhenzhen: "It's hard to say right now, because there's no real evidence. Everything is just my speculation."
Wanwan: "Then don't think about anything for now. Let's go to sleep first."
The next morning, Basong came in person.
Wanwan and Zhenzhen had just finished washing up.
Lu Zhenzhen: "Why are you here so early today, Boss Ba? Did we do something wrong yesterday, so you came here early to lecture us?"
Basong said, "No, the Agriculture Bureau and the Meteorological Bureau issued a notice saying a strong typhoon would land in two days, so the fruit farmers picked a batch of durians last night. I see you guys worked hard yesterday, and I'm afraid we won't be able to pick many durians today, so I came here early to take you out for a nice meal. Then we'll drive together to transport the durians to Lembongan and sell them to another group of fruit merchants!"
Zhenzhen: “How many are there?”
Basong: "Not many, only about 30."
Seeing that Lu Zhenzhen remained silent, Wanwan continued, "Then let's set off now!"
The three of them ate a few bowls of spicy and sour chicken noodles on the roadside.
After several days of hard work, Wanwan swore that it was absolutely the best spicy and sour chicken noodles she had ever eaten, no doubt about it.
Lu Zhenzhen looked worried and naturally didn't eat much.
After finishing his meal, Basong was about to pay the bill and leave when Lu Zhenzhen held his hand and pointed at the golden durians behind the car and asked, "These aren't durians, are they?"
Basong asked back: "As you can see, if they are not durians, then they must be jackfruits. Why are you still trying to call a horse a zebra?"
Zhenzhen: "Ha, I didn't expect a Zhongtai mixed-race kid like you to use idioms so well. But it's useless. You know best whether it's calling a deer a horse or selling dog meat under the guise of sheep meat!"
Wanwan: "What jargon are you guys using back and forth? Don't use jargon in front of others. It's better to speak clearly."
Lu Zhenzhen: "You're so stupid, don't you know? Don't you think those durians look familiar? We peeled those thirty or so durians one by one yesterday. Don't you remember that there was actually no durian flesh inside? Instead, I guess there were drugs or some contraband."
Wanwan said to Basong, "You're really wicked, aren't you? You made us work all day yesterday just to help you remove the durian shells. You put those weird things in them and then glued them together with 502 glue. You can't even think of such a stupid idea. When those durian buyers find out that the goods are not what they said, I wonder what you'll do."
Basong was choked by the idiot in front of him and was speechless.
Lu Zhenzhen: "Have you thought clearly about getting married and having children? Doing something this evil will not only destroy yourself but also implicate your family in every minute. Aren't you afraid that we will find an opportunity to report you halfway?"
Basong extended his gun from the stage. "Take care of yourselves first! My parents left me when I was very young. Now those who live with me are orphans without parents. They can't even afford to feed themselves, so how can they think about starting a family? Let's go. If we don't leave now, our delivery will be delayed. The gentlemen who come to Peng City are not as easy to talk to as we are. They hate people who have no sense of time the most."
Lu Zhenzhen and Wanwan immediately shut up and followed Basong into the car obediently.
After driving for about half an hour, Basong stopped the car in front of a luxuriously decorated mansion.
"Why are you still standing there? Come and help me move the durian in."
Lu Zhenzhen pulled Wanwan aside and said, "When we didn't know, you tricked us into peeling durian. But now that we know, we will definitely not help the evildoer. You can handle this matter on your own!"
Seeing that they had made up their minds, Basong didn't know what to say. He cursed, "Bringing you back here is really unlucky for me. You only know how to eat and drink, you can't do anything, you can't make money, and you only work against me." He got out of the car, looking like he was going to ask for help from the people in the mansion.
When Basong came to the yard, a fat man in a suit and uniform with a big belly came out. Basong immediately bowed to him.
"Hello, Butler Cai Peng. Long time no see. I brought you the goods your master requested. For safety reasons, I even brought two newbies who know nothing about the delivery. Please go outside to receive the goods!"
Butler Cai Peng squinted his cunning eyes and looked Basong up and down. He touched his chin and said, "You know that some gangsters have been killed inexplicably recently, right?"
"Of course I know this, because someone from my school was murdered recently."
"You think those two newcomers of yours are related to this matter?"
"How...how could this be? Everyone here knows that I, Basong, value brotherhood above all else. How could I harbor someone who killed my brothers?"
"Anyway, if you take on new people now, it's bound to give those outsiders something to say. You'd better take care of yourself!"
"I, Basong, am upright and have nothing to fear. Whatever they say or think is their business. Everyone here knows that I, Basong, am the most honest businessman."
"Butler Cai Peng, Butler Cai Peng, something bad has happened, something bad has happened." At this time, a servant who was in charge of guarding the yard came running over in a hurry.
Before he could even stand firmly, Cai Peng slapped him.
