Worried that Jiang Baige wouldn't be full after eating half a pound of dumplings, Chen Jianguo asked, "There aren't many dumplings in half a pound. Are you sure you're only going to eat these?"
"Don't skip eating just to save money for me!"
Jiang Baige replied, "I don't eat much, half a pound is enough."
"Didn't you order some braised pork? I'm just eating some braised pork, that's enough."
Chen Jianguo frowned and said, "You are still too thin. Eat more and gain some weight to look better."
Jiang Baige looked up, and the look in her eyes suggested, Am I not good-looking?
Seeing her look, Chen Jianguo hurriedly explained.
"That's not what I meant. I meant..."
He wanted to say that eating more makes one look better, but he was afraid that if he said too much, his partner would get angry.
"Well."
The more I explained, the more confusing it became, so I just smiled foolishly.
The dumplings came out very quickly. Chen Jianguo’s two pounds of dumplings filled a large plate.
Jiang Baige looked at so many things and felt full even without eating.
She counted her half pound of dumplings and found there were fourteen of them.
The plate of braised meat was not just a few pieces as she had imagined, but unexpectedly it was a large plate.
Chen Jianguo said, "What are you just looking at? Eat quickly!"
The dumplings were stuffed with pork and cabbage, with more vegetables and less meat, which was a far cry from the dish of braised meat.
After eating the dumplings, Chen Jianguo paid the bill and then he was going to send Jiang Baige back to the village.
Even though Jiang Baige was unwilling, she had to agree to his request.
It was already noon, and everyone who came to the market should have gone back, so she was not afraid of being bumped into.
As they were walking back slowly together, Erzhu came on a bicycle.
Seeing the person in front, who looked like their captain, shouted from afar.
"Captain, I'm looking for you! It's urgent."
Chen Jianguo and Jiang Baige turned back to look at him together. After Dazhu called her sister-in-law, he said to Chen Jianguo.
"Captain, I heard another house was robbed in Xiaohekou Village. This thief is too brazen to do this in broad daylight. The police have already sent people there, and they want us to go and assist with the investigation."
Jiang Baige did not correct Erzhu for calling her sister-in-law. She was just happy that Chen Jianguo would not send her home.
Delighted, he said to Chen Jianguo, "Go quickly! I'll go back by myself."
Chen Jianguo said worriedly: "Then you should worry a little and go back early."
After getting Jiang Baige's approval, Chen Jianguo left with Erzhu.
After watching Chen Jianguo walk away, Jiang Baige turned a corner and went to Kui Ye's side.
When he reached the door, he raised his hand and knocked.
When San'er opened the door, he saw the little girl he hadn't seen for a long time.
He happily welcomed the person into the house: "You are finally here. Mr. Kui has been talking about it for several days, asking why you haven't come yet."
Jiang Baige asked, "Is Mr. Kui here?"
San'er closed the door and went to the inner room with her.
"Yes! He's taking a nap! Sit for a while, I'll go get him to wake up."
Jiang Baige sat down on the stool and looked around the room again.
It was very clean, and all the things she had put there last time were gone.
Judging from San'er's tone, they should have all been sold.
Mr. Kui came very quickly. Jiang Baitian had just sat down for a while when he came out in a hurry.
Master Kui said, "Oh! Comrade! You haven't come for so long, I thought you weren't coming anymore."
Jiang Baige asked with a smile: "Master Kui, is business still booming?"
Kui Ye raised his hand and pointed at her. "With your great help, it's of course great. How is it? How much goods did you bring this time?"
Jiang Baige asked, "All the ones sent last time have disappeared, right?"
Mr. Kui nodded and said, "It's all gone. Many people have come to ask about it these past few days, but nothing has happened."
"How much rice is there this time? I want 5,000 kilograms. Do you have any?"
Jiang Baige didn't expect that the rice would be so much. After thinking about it, she nodded.
"Okay, how much else do you want?"
Mr. Kui said, "I want as many as I can get, and I'll give you the remaining money from the last batch of goods now."
"I'll tell you separately about the other goods later."
Mr. Kui left a word and came out of the house with a bag of money.
He said, "Here is six thousand five hundred yuan, take a look."
When Jiang Baige took the goods last time, she did pay a lot more, but she didn't expect that there would be more than 6,000 yuan.
As he said this, he put the money into Jiang Baige's hand.
"We're even with each other from last time."
Jiang Baige smiled and said, "I feel quite relieved to cooperate with you, uncle."
Kratos was praised and a smile appeared on his old face.
"Don't worry about my uncle's character. No matter who I sell out, I will never betray you."
He took out another piece of paper and handed it to Jiang Baige.
"Look, this is the list I wrote. It's all based on your last list. If I wrote too much, you can cut some out."
Jiang Baige took the list and looked through it one by one.
Most of the goods requested are food. It seems that what everyone lacks is food.
Mr. Kui asked: "When will the goods arrive? I will take them all out and make room for you."
He is still very conscious. No one can break the rules of the underworld.
Those who write about these people must abide by the rules even more. If there is anything wrong with them, it will be a life-threatening matter.
Jiang Baige pursed her lips and said, "Yes, we're already here. We're waiting outside the town!"
"If you have nothing else to do, you can leave now. My people will deliver the goods after dark."
She wanted people to leave early so she could get the goods out.
She has to go home soon. If she really waits until night, her family will be worried.
Saying that he would come in the evening was a lie.
Otherwise, it would be outrageous if such a big commotion happened quietly in broad daylight without anyone noticing.
When they come tomorrow morning, as long as there is stock, they will have no time to think about anything else.
Of course she definitely didn't make any movement, but in order to avoid suspicion, she came up with an excuse.
Mr. Kui said happily: "Okay, I have the money ready, come with me."
Jiang Baige responded, "Yeah."
I followed Kui Ye to the warehouse where the money was kept. There was a sack of money inside, and a pair of bronze objects on the ground. They looked like Bodhisattvas or something, and were half a person's height.
Master Kui said, "The money in this bag is for the goods. If you want this pair of Bodhisattvas, take them. When I received them, I exchanged them for a hundred kilograms of grain."
"If you like, just give me a hundred kilograms of food."
Although Jiang Baige didn't understand this stuff, she knew there would definitely be no fakes nowadays, so of course she wanted all the old items.
"Uncle, if you have these in the future, just take them back for me. I will definitely want them all."
It's not like she doesn't have money. Even if she bought a fake, based on the current prices, she would only lose a small amount of money at most.
Mr. Kui said, "Okay, uncle will keep an eye on it for you and take it away next time you come."
"Anyway, I'm out of stock, so I'll let those guys rest for a day. If you're not going out, I have a chess set outside for you to play with."
As he spoke, he called San'er, and two more subordinates came in from the back door, and they left.
