Jiang Jiang nodded happily, her clear eyes seemed to be full of tears, and she said earnestly, "Sister, I won't regret it." He understood what his sister meant. His sister was afraid that he would regret it later and wanted to take it back! But he wouldn't want it! This was given to his sister by him, and it belonged to his sister.
An An was almost dazzled by the pair of clear eyes. She praised sincerely, "Jiang Jiang! Your eyes are more beautiful even when they are closed as amber!" This was the truth. Although amber was precious, it was too dull as a dead object, and Jiang Jiang's eyes were very lively, as if they were the most beautiful eyes in the world.
Jiang Jiang was a little shy, and he ate the chicken leg in big mouthfuls to cover up his shyness.
An An looked at the time and said, "Sister has to go to Teacher Ding's house, otherwise the chicken drumstick will get cold. See you next time!" After that, she took another chicken drumstick from the plate and handed it to Jiang Jiang.
When she turned around, she blinked her eyes and there were two more chicken drumsticks on the plate, but the plate was hidden in An An's arms and no one saw it.
When she didn't see it, the moment she turned around, Jiang Jiang's eyes were filled with tears. She ate chicken legs while crying and murmured, "Sister is the best sister in the world!"
When An An went to Teacher Ding's house, Teacher Ding was washing clothes, and grandma unexpectedly got out a ball of wool thread from somewhere. She was already a very old person, but she was still sitting under the light, holding up the insoles high, obviously embroidering the insoles. People of grandma's age are really good at needlework, but she is old and her eyesight is not very good. Let alone embroidering insoles, even asking her to thread a needle would be a difficult task for the old lady.
An An naturally did not miss what grandma's hands were doing. Her eyes sparkled and she peeled an egg with a smile, broke it into small pieces and fed it to grandma, "Grandma, your granddaughter is here to see you."
Grandma saw the egg being fed to her and subconsciously opened her mouth, "You eat!" The chicken leg was a little cold and obviously had to be heated up before feeding it to the old lady, otherwise it would be too greasy and would make people feel uncomfortable. As for the glutinous rice balls, needless to say, they were brought for Teacher Ding. Glutinous rice is one of the most difficult foods to digest. If grandma ate them, she didn't know if she would be able to eat for the next few days!
Hearing the noise outside, Teacher Ding wiped her foamy hands on her apron and came out to greet them, "An An is here!"
An An looked up and noticed Teacher Ding's hands. She was a little surprised, "I brought some glutinous rice balls. Go and heat them up to taste my craftsmanship." How to say it! From the very beginning, Teacher Ding gave her the impression of having a yellowish complexion, but his hands were exceptionally white and slender, not at all like the hands of a man in his late 40s. An An continued, "Teacher Ding, your hands are so beautiful." After that, she lowered her head and continued to feed eggs to Grandma, not caring about Teacher Ding's reaction.
But the speaker may not mean it, but the listener may take it seriously. Teacher Ding's face was stiff for a moment, and he subconsciously hid his hands behind his back, rubbed them, and explained dryly, "Maybe it's because I soaked the clothes for too long." Seeing that An An didn't ask any more questions, he breathed a sigh of relief.
A heart for a heart, four ounces for half a pound, even if Teacher Ding had a hard heart, he was warmed by An An's constant reminder to send him food. Now when he saw An An, there was a soft light in his eyes, and he really loved An An as a lady.
He went back to the kitchen, and when he came out again, his hands had returned to their previous state. He didn't care whether the glutinous rice dumpling was cold or not, he just picked it up and ate one, sighing, "I don't know how that rough man, Master Gu, gave birth to a girl as clever and skillful as you!" While Teacher Ding was eating the glutinous rice dumplings, An An passed the soybean paste in the bowl to her, "Why don't you try dipping it in this?"
This dip was not a big deal, Teacher Ding's eyes lit up, and he raised his thumb, "This soybean paste tastes really good."
Grandma was a little anxious, she opened An An's hand, pointed at the soybean paste, and said aggrievedly, "I want some too!" They say you are an old child, an old child. Obviously, Grandma felt aggrieved because she saw An An and Teacher Ding eating enthusiastically and ignoring her!
An An didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She gently dipped a little soybean paste juice with chopsticks and fed it to grandma. Grandma pointed at soybean paste and smiled, "This tastes better than eggs." Eggs have no taste.
An An and Teacher Ding laughed when they saw grandma being so naughty.
When An An left Teacher Ding's house, it was already late.
She went home to see if her old father had missed anything, and added a lot of things to the food.
Because he had to get up early tomorrow, Gu Weiqiang also went to bed early tonight. He put a piece of paper on the table in the main room, and put fifty yuan under the paper. There was also a large bag of food under the table.
Obviously, they were all bought from the black market. An An felt warm inside. She was worried that her father would not eat well when he went out. And her father was also worried that she and Dong Dong would eat a lot at home.
The food at home was prepared. If they didn't want to eat, they could go out to eat with money. How could An An not understand the meaning of her father's words!
She put the money on the table, thought about it, and took out two chapters of the big reunion, and stuffed them into her father's luggage. She and Dong Dong didn't spend much money at home, and her father was not at home, so she could go to the black market.
Sell some of the things in the supermarket and exchange them for money.
The next morning, An An originally planned to see her father off, but she overslept. When she got up, she found porridge in the pot. As for her father, he had already left home.
She patted her forehead. It was true that staying up late made her forget things easily! After returning from Teacher Ding's house yesterday, she tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep, so she slept too deeply in the morning and didn't even notice her father leaving.
Dong Dong and she hurriedly ate breakfast and rushed to school. In the morning, there were arithmetic and English classes. In order to allow students to learn English well, the best time for the first two classes in the morning was given to English classes.
When An An arrived, she had already entered at the ringing of the class bell. Originally, her deskmate was Ban Xia, but Ban Xia went through the withdrawal procedures again, so An An was left alone.
As usual, Teacher Zhen called An An to lead the reading. As for the empty seat next to him, he just raised his eyebrows but did not ask any further questions. There were also some rumors in the office, and he heard some of them. He just felt that Gu Banxia was really hopelessly stupid and punished himself for other people's mistakes.
As a teacher, what I hate most is students giving up good learning opportunities. The conditions for going to school these days are much better than they were a few years ago. As far as he knows, Banxia's family conditions are not very bad either, because Teacher Zhen has seen Gu Huazi come to the school to pick Banxia up many times.
In his opinion, what's wrong with being fat? ? What
others say can't be lost in the future. When Banxia returns after completing her studies and stands in a certain position, she will find that these are not a big deal.
In fact, although Teacher Zhen looks gentle and refined, he is actually a bit unconventional. Otherwise, he would not be able to go anywhere with his qualifications. How could he stay in Taisong County as an English teacher? It is really a waste of his talent.
When An An stood up, she glanced at Teacher Zhen. Based on her intuition, she felt that Teacher Zhen was like a lion about to get angry. How could he still be as gentle as she thought before?
I have to say that An An's intuition is very accurate.
After the English class was over, Teacher Zhen took An An to the office. He took out a thick review material from the drawer and handed it to An An, saying, "This contains all the key knowledge of the English subject that I have sorted out, including Chinese and arithmetic. These two subjects are prepared by other teachers. You are close to classmate Gu Banxia, so if it is convenient, bring these materials to her and tell her that the door of the school is always open to her." Even if she doesn't come to school, if she reviews these materials at home, they will be enough for her when she takes the college entrance examination.
An An weighed the thick review materials in her hand. She was really moved. All teachers have never given up on their students. Many of the materials here were rushed out by the teachers who stayed up late last night. This is the teacher's heart. An An bowed to Teacher Zhen, "I thank the teachers on behalf of Banxia!" This is her sincere gratitude.
Teachers of this era are doing their best to protect every student, so that every student can learn knowledge and take the final exam.
Teacher Zhen waved his hand, "This is not a big deal, go back to class!"
There are two classes left, and An An's hands kept stroking the thick stack of materials.
At noon after school, while Dongdong was taking a nap, she took the opportunity to change her clothes and go to the black market. There were too many goods in her supermarket. If she sold a batch, they would have enough money.
And according to the trend, food coupons would be useless in two years, and money would be used to buy food, and food would be the least valuable. The most common thing in her supermarket was food. If she didn't sell a batch and left it in the future, the market would not be as good as it is now.
Because the weather was cold, she wore a woolen hooded coat and a tattered felt hat on her head. Her voice was also changed by a voice changer, and she became an old man in his seventies or eighties.
It was not long after the beginning of the new year, and every household had money in their pockets. There were not many people in the black market. After An Anqiao finished dressing, she went straight in. There were only a few people around the black market who looked at the goods from time to time. The current trading situation was much better than the end of last year. With the rehabilitation of the exiled people in Taisong County and the resumption of the college entrance examination, the vitality of the market also increased a lot. At least the people in the black market no longer had the frightened look on their faces, but were strolling leisurely
. Everyone was used to An An's dress, because people who came to the black market didn't want to be seen by others. Everyone understood this truth. If they were seen and reported by the red-eye disease, then the whole family would be finished.
An An cleaned the place for a long time and found that the middle-aged man in a double-breasted cotton jacket was the one who looked after the place. An An went straight to her. Because of the voice changer, she spoke with a sense of hoarseness and old age. Fortunately, the middle-aged man did not pursue it too much.
An An lifted a corner of the tent, revealing only a wrinkled chin, and ordered, "Take me to find your boss."
The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment. After all, he was the one who looked after the black market, and he was quite alert. He looked at the tent vigilantly, "What's the matter?" Fortunately, he was flexible and did not offend directly. For people like them, they have seen a lot of people. If An An spoke to him in a nice voice, he might not be so polite.
An An was very arrogant from the beginning. Nowadays, people who can speak in this tone are either in high positions or have a strong background.
The middle-aged man didn't want to offend him. If he were a soft-tempered person who flatters others under normal circumstances, he might think that An An is looking for trouble and drive her out directly.
An An was patient and lowered her voice, "I have a large batch of goods, it depends on whether you are willing to eat it."
The middle-aged man's eyes flashed, "Really?"
An An glanced at him and said lightly, "Since I am here, there is no need to lie to you."
Although the middle-aged man didn't see An An's expression, he didn't know why, even through the cloak, he could sense the man's arrogance.
His attitude also became a little more respectful, "Come with me."
Under An An's hood, she was holding an electric baton, which she had found in the supermarket warehouse. Obviously, this thing was beyond the scope of the market. The supermarket bought this batch of goods, but did not dare to sell it outside. This was a bargain for An An.
She held the electric baton tightly. The black market was not a good place. It was not an exaggeration to say that it was a mixed bag. She had never been willing to take this risk. However, according to the news from the labor union some time ago, the food distributed to each household was obviously more than before, and the food coupons were used less than before. Although it was not explicitly stated that food coupons would no longer be used, it was obviously a signal, a signal of loosening food. An An could not remember in which year the food coupons would be cancelled, but she knew it was not at this point.
It will obviously take several more years!
She didn't know if it was the butterfly effect caused by her time travel.
And she was getting more and more anxious to sell some of the food in the supermarket.
But if she was not fully prepared, how could she dare to come to the black market? The electric baton was one layer of guarantee, the supermarket was the second layer, and the third layer was the letter paper she pressed under the pillow. It clearly stated that she had come to the black market, and if she didn't go back at night, she could find someone.
But she didn't hope to use the last item.
After twists and turns, she arrived at the innermost part of the black market, which was a small office of about twenty square meters. There were many things that people outside dreamed of piled up in that office.
Her palms were sweating. If An An had been at the wedding ceremony in Gujia Village, she would have recognized the man in front of her as the director of the textile factory, Hu Yuanchao.
This identity was really hidden very deeply.
However, although An An did not know Hu Yuanchao, it did not affect her remembering his face. Hu Yuanchao rarely came to the black market, after all, it would have a bad impact.
But today, because of collecting bills, he happened to be here. It must be said that An An was lucky to meet Hu Yuanchao. An An met Hu Yuanchao by chance, because her clothes looked like a skinny old man from the outside, and because of the voice changer, she chose a strong dialect accent. When you hear this voice, you know she is a foreigner.
When the people below described it to Hu Yuanchao, and he had just collected the bills, he found that the income last month was less than half of the previous one. It was really that the black market was hit one after another by the county governor above, and no one was willing to take the risk to trade in the black market.
Even if the policy has been slightly relaxed in the past few days, there are still not many people coming. Fewer people mean less goods, and less goods means that their commission on the black market is naturally less.
An An's arrival is a timely rain.
Hu Yuanchao relaxed his vigilance.
After An An entered the house, she held the electric baton tightly with her hands in the tent, and her index finger was on the button. If there was any accident, her electric baton would not have eyes. She said in a flat tone, "Are you the person in charge of the black market?"
Hu Yuanchao turned the walnuts in his hand and asked instead, "Do you have any goods to sell?"
An An said arrogantly, "It depends on whether you can eat it or not."
"How much?" Hu Yuanchao didn't care about An An's attitude at all. On the contrary, because of her arrogance, he slowly put away his contempt and sat up straight.
An An lowered her voice, "One thousand kilograms of rice, one thousand kilograms of flour, will you take it?" She cleaned up the supermarket warehouse and counted the 100-kilogram packaged rice and flour. It was really a lot, because before she traveled through time, there were rumors in their local area that the price of grain would increase.
People who can open supermarkets in big cities naturally have connections and backgrounds. They stocked up a batch of grain in the supermarket early. Who would have thought that before they could sell it, An An would take advantage of it and travel with her along with the supermarket.
This time, ten packages of rice and noodles were sold, and each package weighed one hundred kilograms. Although it was a lot, it was not enough to disrupt the market. It was too much, and she did not dare to take it out anymore. She could only wait for the batch to be digested, and then slowly beat the rest in batches. Of course, she must keep enough for herself.
Hu Yuanchao was a little excited and immediately stood up from his seat, "But polished rice and fine white noodles??"
An An felt from inside his cloak, grabbed a handful of polished rice and fine white noodles and put them on the table, doing the whole thing in one go.
Hu Yuanchao twisted a handful of rice with his hands and put it under his nose and smelled it. It smelled of fragrant rice. The quality of this rice was much better than the previous batch.
Then she dipped the flour on the table, tasted it, and suppressed her excitement, "How much do you want per pound?"
"Two yuan!" This is the black market, not the place where she sold it to the faculty and staff before. In the black market, you can ask for a high price, and if the price is not suitable, you can still negotiate.
Hu Yuanchao's face darkened for a moment, "Grandpa, your price is too expensive, and the quantity is so large, except for the black market, no one will eat this batch of goods."
Grandpa? ? Your whole family is the grandpa.
An An was unhappy, "1.8 yuan!"
"1.3 yuan!" As the man behind the black market, Hu Yuanchao had some doubts about An An's identity, but his advantage was obvious. Only their black market could take in so many goods in this area. After all, it was tens of thousands of yuan.
"1.5 yuan, if you are bargaining, I would rather keep it in my hands." She knew her disadvantages, but also her advantages. Apart from herself, this black market could not receive such good rice.
"Okay!" Hu Yuanchao made up his mind, "Where do we get the goods?"
"At eight o'clock in the evening, we'll meet at the abandoned brick factory outside the city. We'll exchange the money for the goods." This abandoned brick factory was built ten years ago. At that time, there were a group of veteran craftsmen in Taisong County, and the brick factory was opened by a landlord, who hired craftsmen to do the work.
Later, during the revolution, the landlord was ousted, and all the things in the brick factory were confiscated. The brick factory fell into decline, and now it is like a spider web.
The reason why An An chose the brick factory for the transaction was naturally because she had selected the venue in advance. One reason was that the brick factory was sparsely populated, and there was a dilapidated house on the spot, so she had a place to store the two thousand gold grains that she could conjure up out of thin air. Secondly, she had been there before. There was a small path from the back door of the brick factory that led directly to the faculty and staff building. After thinking about it, the brick factory was the best place for her to trade.
Hu Yuanchao's eyes flickered slightly, his fingers curled up, and he tapped the table unconsciously, "OK!" After seeing An An leave, he ordered his subordinates, "Divide into two groups, one group will follow this person, and the other group will go to the brick factory to guard."
An An came out of the black market and noticed the movement behind her. She curled her lips, turned a few corners, and went directly to a public toilet outside. After she entered the public toilet, she took off her clothes and changed into her own clothes. She was a young girl full of youth.
She was wearing a loose large turmeric-colored cotton jacket, and her whole body was wrapped in it.
She also put on makeup, her originally fair and petite face turned yellow and black, with a bunch of freckles, and a big eye covering half of her face. She looked at herself in the mirror for a long time in the supermarket.
The group of people who were following An An outside saw that An An had been in the public toilet for a long time and went straight into the public toilet to look for her. However, they found that the public toilet was empty, and above the public toilet, several bricks at the window had been removed, and there were obvious footprints, which showed that the old man who was doing the transaction had climbed out of the window.
"Damn it!" One of them pointed at the window and ordered the person behind him, "Chase!"
The two hurried out of the public toilet, and seeing that the two people who were chasing them had left, An An waited in the public toilet for about ten minutes, then covered her nose and trotted out of the toilet.
Anyway, few people could tell that she was in this state.
No one could tell that she was dressed like this, so An An was quite lucky. Schools these days have longer lunch breaks at noon. She was delayed this time, so she went home to wake up Dong Dong who was sleeping, and went directly to school.
She spent the whole afternoon thinking about the transaction in the evening. She considered all the things that might happen in all aspects, and she couldn't help wondering what her father would do if he was here.
Of course, the father that An An mentioned was not Gu Weiqiang, but her father in the future.
In the future, Gu Dad used to be a senior executive of a company. Later, he started his own business and founded a company. The scale of the company is not particularly large, but the annual income is not small. Gu Dad is a very serious person. He always has several plans for doing things, and his ability to deal with emergencies is far beyond what An An can compare.
An An's temperament, in some ways, still inherited Gu Dad's genes, but An An was indeed a child who was spoiled like a princess and had never experienced such a big thing.
In the end, she was not as experienced as Gu Dad. She scratched her head in frustration and kept asking herself, "If Dad were here, what would he do?" In fact, An An already had the answer in her heart. Dad would give no less than three plans.
And she can do the reverse deduction, which is exactly what she forgot.
An An finally had a flash of inspiration. Teacher Ding on the podium said in a serious tone, "Student Gu An An, come up and demonstrate this arithmetic problem to everyone."
An An didn't hear it at all. It was Xu Chengcheng who was sitting behind her who pushed her and lowered her voice, "Teacher Ding, I'm calling you up!"
An An came to her senses, stood up suddenly, went to the podium, and took a look at the question with chalk. In fact, it was a very basic function problem.
She stared at the blackboard for three seconds, went over the solution in her mind, and then took the chalk to write and draw. For a moment, the classroom was very quiet, with only the sound of An An writing on the blackboard.
For this problem, An An used the simplest method to find the answer.
Teacher Ding nodded and taught, "I know you have a good foundation, but you still need to concentrate on listening in class, otherwise you will fall behind in these courses sooner or later."
An An looked like she was being taught a lesson, so obedient that she couldn't be more obedient. "Go down!" After Teacher Ding spoke, An An immediately went to her seat. Xu Chengcheng raised her thumb under the table. Anyway, she knew the question above, but the question didn't know her, so she couldn't solve a single word.
But An An was indeed distracted, so she was pulled up and figured it out immediately.
An An smiled bitterly, "Listen!" Being criticized by Teacher Ding in public, she felt a little embarrassed. In the next few classes, An An didn't dare to be distracted again. After school, she took Dong Dong home with her. She prepared the ingredients for dinner directly and brought it to Teacher Ding's house. After eating with Grandma, she left Dong Dong at Teacher Ding's house to do homework, which was considered to be helping to look after Dong Dong first.
And she looked at the time and was about to prepare to go to the abandoned brick factory.
After dressing up, when she arrived at the abandoned brick factory, she found many people hiding in the weeds outside the abandoned factory, obviously waiting for her. An An was not shy, and found Hu Yuanchao according to the original plan. This was a deal worth tens of thousands of yuan, which was considered a big deal, so of course Hu Yuanchao would come in person.
Hu Yuanchao, who was dug out from behind the wall, was surprised in his heart, but his face was calm, "Master, you have a sharp eye."
An An laughed and got straight to the point, "Did you bring the money?"
Hu Yuanchao patted his chest and pulled out a cowhide bag from it, but he didn't give it to An An, but held it in his own hand.
An An didn't care, "Give me an extra 600 yuan, and I'll give you three Forever brand bicycles, for ladies." There was a redeveloped vintage area in her supermarket, and there were many old items inside. An An only discovered these three bicycles later. She found them from a vintage house. They were a bit old, but they were ladies' bicycles. Nowadays, most of the bicycles produced were men's bicycles with horizontal bars, and women's bicycles were rare.
When Hu Yuanchao heard the words "ladies' bicycle", his eyes flashed, "Where is it? I need to see the goods to know if it is worth the price?"
An An said calmly, "Put it with the food. Let your people withdraw and no one is allowed to enter the brick factory, otherwise our deal today will end here."
Hu Yuanchao noticed An An's displeasure and waved his hand. Suddenly, more than ten strong men came out from the surroundings.
An An was not as calm as she looked. Her hands were full of sweat.
She tried to make her steps more steady. She entered the brick factory and fumbled around for a while. She found that there was indeed a piece of ground with a different sound. She knocked on it and pried up the brick. There was a large passage underneath.
An An knew this place because she had watched many exploration programs before. In one episode, the host said that in the 1950s and 1960s or even earlier, people at that time were afraid of enemy attacks.
They would dig a passage around each factory to save lives. An An had explored it once before and left a mark, which came in handy this time.
She took a look outside. At the door and window, she tied a rope with a bell on it. If someone came in, the bell would definitely ring.
But she was also very fast. With just a wave of her hand, the ten bags of rice and noodles were put into the passage. As for the date and brand on the bag, An An took it off. At least from the outside, it was impossible to tell when and where it was produced.
An An placed three bicycles next to the food.
An An tilted her ears and listened. Hu Yuanchao did not send anyone in. She curled her lips and kept her promise, but she did not relax her vigilance.
She called out to the people outside, "Come in!" Seeing Hu Yuanchao and a group of people coming in, An An stretched out her hand and pointed at Hu Yuanchao, "You come in alone, and the others stay at the door."
An An was cautious, and Hu Yuanchao was also cautious. Seeing that An An was a thin old man, he relaxed a little and waved to keep the subordinates following him at the door. According to Hu Yuanchao's idea, as long as they stayed in the house, he was not afraid that the old man would get lost. As for the time when he lost him in the toilet at noon, it was completely because of the old man's cunning and his subordinates were useless.
After seeing Hu Yuanchao coming in, An An pointed, "Give me the money! I need to check it before I can give you the food!"
After he gave his instructions to his subordinates, he went inside and found that the whole house was shabby and there was no food. He was a little angry, "Are you kidding me?"
An An didn't care and repeated, "You gave me the money, so I will naturally let you see the food."
Hu Yuanchao was unwilling, but the situation forced him to hand over the money. An An took it in her hand and poured a bundle of money on the ground in front of Hu Yuanchao. She took a stack of money from it and checked it directly. It was all real money, and there was no fake money to fool her.
It's not her fault that she is cautious, but she doesn't believe that this man is really clean as a black market boss.
After checking the money, she installed the bricks and uncovered them in front of Hu Yuanchao. A big pit was revealed.
Hu Yuanchao realized that there was a tunnel not far from An An. No wonder!
No wonder his people came in several times but couldn't find food. Hu Yuanchao's vigilance towards An An deepened. As a local tyrant, he didn't know that there was an underground passage in the abandoned brick factory, but this outsider knew it.
It seems that the other party was prepared, and on the other hand, he didn't have enough information.
An An let Hu Yuanchao watch. She couldn't see anything because she was wearing a hood. She pointed to the entrance and said, "Go down and take a look. The food is all downstairs, and there are bicycles." This brick factory has been abandoned for a few years. There are spider webs everywhere, and even the ground is a little damp.
Hu Yuanchao looked at a piece of rope on the ground, and his mouth twitched. It was obvious that the rope was prepared for him to go down the tunnel, so he did as he was told. Anyway, the old man couldn't take the money away, not bad! Hu Yuanchao planned to rob the thieves, and this was not the first time he did this.
Although An An didn't know what Hu Yuanchao would do next, she could guess a little.
After she saw Hu Yuanchao standing downstairs, she casually took out a flashlight and shone it, "Check carefully, and call me if you have any questions!"
Hu Yuanchao was stunned by the refined white rice and fine white flour in front of him. These were all good things!
After this batch of goods was sold, maybe his position could be further improved. Then he could mention the conditions for his eldest son's daughter-in-law.
Hu Yuanchao looked up and found that the flashlight was still lying on the ground, half empty, and the beam just hit the ground. It was obvious that the old man was helping him to shine the light. In addition, there were his subordinates outside, so the old man could not escape. Hu Yuanchao was relieved a lot, and slowly opened the remaining bags one by one to check them. The last thing he checked was the bicycle.
The bicycle looked novel, but it looked a bit old. Two hundred yuan was a high price for him to buy it back. However, after glancing at the pile of food, he wanted to drive it away. He might as well consider this bicycle as a bargain!
He stayed down there for more than ten minutes before he slowly climbed up holding the rope. When he came up, he found that the flashlight was merely pressed down by a rock, with half of it floating in the air. It was not the flashlight held by the old man at all.
He looked for someone everywhere, but found that the house was empty. There were only slanted wooden shelves and spider webs everywhere. Hu Yuanchao's heart skipped a beat. He walked to the door and asked anxiously, "Did you see the old man come out?"
The subordinates he brought with him shook their heads in unison, "No one came out."
Hu Yuanchao's face turned ashen, and he ordered, "Search for me! Don't leave a single inch of the place untouched."
The subordinates looked at each other and rushed in at the same time. They really dug three feet into the ground. Half an hour later, everyone shook their heads in unison, "The old man is no longer in the scrap brick factory."
Hu Yuanchao kicked the subordinate closest to him, "Waste!"
"Tell me! Tell me how the old man got lost last time?"
The two people who were responsible for chasing An An last time told Hu Yuanchao the situation. Hu Yuanchao was puzzled. How could a good person disappear? ?
At this time, An An, who disappeared, was on her way home. She had a sickle in her hand and was cutting thatch while walking. This area was rarely visited by people and had a thick layer of thatch. She took the sickle and cut a path out.
Not only that, she also deliberately cut in another direction to create a scene that she had someone to help her. Hu Yuanchao and his men would find this place sooner or later. The extra road was just a cover-up. This plan of deceiving the world could not be completed by one person.
Once out of this thatched forest, there are roads that lead in all directions. If Hu Yuanchao wants to find her, it will not be easy. An An changed her clothes when no one was around, walked around on the road for a long time, and then went to Teacher Ding's house to pick up Dong Dong.
She didn't expect that Dong Dong also caught the eye of grandma. When she went there, grandma was telling Dong Dong a mythological story!
Dong Dong listened very seriously, and Teacher Ding was washing up in the bathroom. Hearing the noise, he put on his clothes and came out.
An An looked over. She didn't know if it was her illusion, but Teacher Ding seemed to be shorter than during the day? And a little whiter? ? Even the way he walked was a little like a woman.
She shook her eyes, maybe she was dizzy from being busy. Teacher Ding was obviously a man, how could she have mistaken him for a woman.
