In fact, besides these guys, there was another person hiding outside, closely watching everything that was happening in the yard.
This person was naturally Lao Bai.
Comrade Lao Bai wanted to make a good deal with "Sister Ma". He was worried that if Sister Ma was taken advantage of, they would not be able to do business together in the future. Where would he find such high-quality grains then?
Actually, the family that Lao Bai is currently protecting uses specially supplied premium food, but even so, Lao Bai still feels that "Sister Ma's" fine grains are better than those specially supplied ones.
This is truly amazing! Where did "Sister Ma" get such high-quality grain?
In this era of scarcity, it's truly baffling how such a wonderful thing could be obtained.
The scene just now left Lao Bai utterly shocked.
He had already noticed that there were people lying in ambush nearby, clearly intending to deal with "Sister Ma".
He actually wanted to tip off "Sister Ma".
Because his intuition told him that although this woman was also a reseller, she was clearly different from the others.
That feeling was wonderful; it made him feel very close to them.
He trusted his intuition, so he would never let this woman get hurt.
Even if they are resellers, so what? Everyone has a hard time these days.
It's not that buying and selling is a serious crime. He knew very well that if people couldn't survive, everything else could take a backseat.
Anyone with a bit of a knack for thinking will try to improve their life; who doesn't want to live a better life?
This kind of buying and selling, within reasonable limits, is actually quite good; at least it allows for the exchange of goods and services.
The fear is that some unscrupulous merchants will try to control grain and commodity prices through this method.
There have been such ruthless people before, and it took a lot of effort from above to get rid of them.
Therefore, the reason we are now taking everything under control and implementing a planned economy is to prevent such people from emerging.
These days, conditions in all aspects are not very good, and if there is no strict control, it is easy for trouble to arise.
But Bai Jingyan felt that it wouldn't hurt to have a little more of a conscientious businesswoman like "Sister Ma".
So, just as Bai Jingyan was about to take action, seeing that "Sister Ma" was about to suffer a loss, he suddenly saw a group of strong wolves carrying a bunch of unconscious, burly men into the dilapidated courtyard.
Before long, the group of burly men and the first group of smugglers who went in all scrambled out, looking utterly disheveled.
Bai Jingyan was dumbfounded; he felt that he had met a master today.
This "Sister Ma" is indeed no ordinary woman. It takes real skill for a woman to operate alone in the black market and pigeon market.
However, it's clear that this "Sister Ma" is quite capable.
At this moment, Bai Jingyan couldn't help but think of that girl who was far away. She was also very capable, never suffered a loss, and could make all those who schemed against her suffer a miserable defeat and retreat in disgrace.
A strange sense of familiarity welled up in his heart.
However, Bai Jingyan couldn't help but frown when he thought of "Sister Ma's" smooth and soft hands.
His intuition told him that this "Sister Ma" was a very powerful and unstable factor.
He was guarding that important figure and naturally didn't want any possibility of chaos breaking out in the capital.
Otherwise, he would only be causing trouble for himself, so he decided to go and meet this "Sister Ma".
I barely exchanged two words before they pushed me away. They probably knew these resellers were up to something and didn't want to get involved.
Bai Jingyan frowned and silently approached the courtyard house, but before he could take any action, he heard "Sister Ma's" voice from inside:
"Hey bro, you're here? Come on in. I can get you a big deal."
Upon hearing this, Bai Jingyan raised an eyebrow. He was one of the top elite soldiers in the army, known for his exceptional skills.
Normally, they have very strong capabilities for surrection and counter-surveillance.
But he knew that he had probably already been discovered this time.
He had only just arrived nearby, not even at the entrance, when Sister Ma had already called him inside.
Bai Jingyan couldn't help but sigh, "There are always mountains beyond mountains, and people beyond people."
"Big sister, you really have some skills. I saw everything just now. It's only because you showed mercy and didn't treat me like you treat others, otherwise I guess I would have been taken down by you long ago."
When Luo Zixi saw Bai Jingyan still dressed like a rough, uncouth man and walk in so casually, she couldn't help but smile.
“Brother, you’re different from the others. You don’t have as many bad intentions as them. That’s just how I am. If someone treats me well, I’ll treat them even better!”
"Since you respect me, I naturally won't treat you unfairly. Tell me, what do you want? I can get you anything I have, at fair prices, definitely much more affordable than those outside!"
Upon hearing her words, Bai Jingyan raised an eyebrow and, without further ado, presented Luo Zixi with the list of supplies he needed.
Luo Zixi looked at it and asked with a smile:
"Someone in your family has been seriously injured and needs to recuperate..."
"I have most of these things, and they are all top-quality, but they are a bit pricey, so you'd better think it over."
Old Bai nodded quickly and said:
"Of course, I trust Sister Ma would never cheat me. That's right, this is a very important person to me. He is seriously injured and needs all kinds of nourishing foods and dietary therapy."
