Chapter 286 Parallel imports become dry goods
As soon as he returned to the restaurant, Li Tianchou found that the atmosphere was wrong. The first floor was empty and there was no one. The lively scenes of work in the morning were not seen. Everyone sat or lying together on the second floor, as if they were waiting for him to come back.
"I can't contact you by phone, I'll be waiting for you for a long time." Zhu Lei quickly got up as soon as he saw Li Tianchou, with an anxious look on his face. It was rare for this expression to appear on Zhu Lei's face.
Li Tianchou was surprised. He took out his cell phone and saw that it turned off. He remembered the young man next to Old Man Hua. His technique was so fast that he didn't notice such small movements. But it was hard to explain too much. Looking at everyone's eyes, he looked angry or anxious. Even Xiao Song was panicked. Seeing his desire to speak, he guessed that something must have happened, so he hurriedly asked, "What's the situation?"
"After you left in the afternoon, Ah Hua told me something, and he went out. He didn't care at first, but twenty minutes ago, we found this thing and a note while unloading the materials at the door." Zhu Lei said, pointing at the object on the table.
Only then did Li Tianchou notice that Peng Weihua was not there. When he saw the objects on the table, he was shocked. This was a short knife with a cowhide scabbard. The cowhide was worn very much, and some places were even bright and black. It was a self-defense weapon that Peng Weihua wore in close proximity.
He never leaves this knife, loves it like a treasure, and even puts it on the stool next to him when taking a shower. He rarely uses this knife. He once said when Peng Weihua joked, "This knife is my brother. When it fights hard, I have to play with my life."
Now that the knife is there, the person is not there, what does this mean? Li Tianchou sweated coldly and grabbed the note next to him. There was a line of elegant small characters on it, which seemed familiar: the bad rules of the surname Peng, let the person in charge come and take the people (only one person), and it will expire before 5 pm. The Qingshiqiao Kiln outside the south city.
Only then did Li Tianchou understand the reason why Zhu Lei was anxious. He held everyone under pressure, just to wait for him to come back. Otherwise, if the situation was unknown, it would be hard to predict the consequences. After looking at the time, it was already 4:30, which was so dangerous! He said to Zhu Lei, "I'll go there right away, everyone will wait for me here."
"No, let's go too." Liangzi and Qi Baozhu jumped up first.
"Don't argue, time doesn't wait for anyone, we're here to stay at peace." Li Tianchou ordered, and was about to turn around and leave.
"That won't work. In the afternoon, you will leave, and Ahua will disappear. We are not at ease." The shemale also stood up, and the words were very ruthless, and the implication was that he didn't trust Li Tianchou very much.
"Why are you talking to the head of the family like this? Sit down for me." Zhu Lei got angry. It's no wonder that the shemale monsters were still recovering from the valley when everyone was fighting for the qualifications of the head of the family. He always had some inexplicable feelings about Li Tianchou's identity. Although he heard everyone talk about the situation intermittently later, he was still unwilling to accept it.
"Oh, if he is really in charge, he will not even answer the phone if something big happens? Don't give me this trick. I insist on going. I just gave you face, don't be arrogant." The shemale was even more angry.
Li Tianchou looked at the shemale coldly, his eyes as if it were a blade. The shemale was not afraid and looked at each other with his head held high, but he couldn't bear it after just a moment. The other party's eyes were not that simple and cold, but also mixed with a sharp murderous aura, which made him feel very stressed.
"The note is very clear, only one person is allowed to go." Li Tianchou said slowly, "What are the other people's opinions?"
"Everyone will go together." Liangzi took a step forward without any fear.
Li Tianchou nodded, "Okay, that's it. I'll set out first, and the others and Zhu Lei will take action in half an hour, and Wenhui will stay for the guard."
"Why do you leave first? You have to go together." The shemale couldn't help but shout again, but as soon as he finished speaking, he felt a flash of sight. Li Tianchou was already standing in front of him, and the distance between the two faces was no more than one fist.
Everyone was shocked, and even Li Tianchou himself was quite surprised. He wanted to rush over and shock the other party, but with anger, his heart moved at will, and his speed was far beyond his imagination.
In everyone's eyes, within four or five meters of distance, Li Tianchou just shook his body slightly and moved instantly. The most surprising thing was Liangzi. Before his wide open mouth was closed, he felt a gust of wind facing him. Li Tianchou was already standing behind him. Damn it?
After recovering from the serious injury, Li Tianchou experienced the first time he had such an incredible body movement. Could it be that the one in the nightmare is a superman? A top master? I grass. He sighed in his heart. I don’t know if it was excitement or excitement, but the shemale opposite suddenly turned pale, and the Adam’s apple was squirming up and down, not knowing what he wanted to say.
"My fist is not for my own people, but if you waste time, I will deal with you." Li Tianchou's voice was not loud, but everyone present could hear it clearly. Everyone's heart was shaking, and the eyes of Li Tianchou looked at Li Tianchou to a greater or lesser sense of strangeness.
"Move again in half an hour, Brother Zhu, please." When Li Tianchou's voice came again, the person had already arrived outside the restaurant.
The kiln beside the Bluestone Bridge outside the Nancheng is actually a large square with refractory bricks piled up. The rows of bricks are neatly arranged, and it is impossible to see at first sight. The only symbolic iron fence gate is dilapidated and can easily sway in on a bicycle, so Li Tianchou stood in the center of the square without much effort.
This position seems very dangerous, but Li Tianchou did it intentionally. On the one hand, he showed sincerity, and on the other hand, he weakened the other party's vigilance. The elegant small characters on the note were similar to the handwriting that revealed the news of Uncle Geng last time. It can even be boldly guessed that it was from the same person. He has initially judged that the other party has a great relationship with Nie Tao.
Li Tianchou had been standing quietly for five minutes, but there was no one around the square. Seeing the passage of time, he couldn't hold back his breath. Just as he was about to gather his strength to shout, he heard a sound coming from behind the nearby brick wall. It was about twenty or thirty meters away, and a short fat man wearing a big mask slowly walked out from behind the brick wall. This person was the masked man he had seen last time back in the woods.
"Meet again, brother." The short and fat man walked forward a few meters before stopping.
"Yes, we've met again." Li Tianchou nodded, "Li was grateful for the last time. Before he could thank him in person, he hoped that his brother would forgive him. Anything wrong was Li's fault. Please don't make things difficult for me."
The short and fat man shook his head, "Two things, I said last time, we have both money and goods. I paid for Nie Tao's work, and it has been written off. But this time, your people are wrong. If you break the rules of the world, you can't blame me.
"I wish to hear the good fortune." Li Tianchou frowned, thinking that the other party didn't look like a casual person, and he didn't know what trouble Peng Weihua had caused.
"The person surnamed Peng repeatedly asked my people for information about Nie Tao. It is a taboo in our industry. I could tolerate Nie Tao and you, but he tied my people the day before yesterday, so don't blame me for turning against others." The short and fat man is a teapot, and he rarely speaks so politely, mainly based on his special attention to Li Tianchou.
Li Tianchou felt ashamed when he heard this. A few days ago, he found out that Peng Weihua was looking for Nie Tao privately without telling him. He thought the love was understandable, so he did not stop it in time, nor did he calm down and talked more with Peng Weihua, which made a fuss again.
This matter is not handled well. If you talk about the responsibility, it depends on yourself. At the moment, you can only make up for the loss, but depending on the short and fat man's actions, there should be room for recovery, otherwise you will not make an appointment with him. Li Tianchou asked with one face, "If it's really his fault, I'll apologize first, brother, but what can I do to give you an explanation?"
Li Tianchou's words were decent, and the teapot nodded, "Simple, if you break the rules, you will need to have three or six holes. If you pay a little more, I'll leave someone."
Three swords and six holes? Grass, what era is this? If the rogue master is poked like this a few times, he will go to see God with the Bull Demon King, and he will pay some more money? This short and fat man is quite greedy. Li Tianchou is a little unhappy, but there is no trace on his face.
"What is the price of small money?"
"The medical expenses are 200,000 yuan."
The short and fat man's easy words made Li Tianchou so angry that he suppressed his anger and suddenly laughed, "Brother is really good at doing business. I haven't even seen a person yet for such a sky-high price."
"This is easy to deal with." The teapot was unexpectedly refreshed, stretched out his hands and slapped twice. After a few seconds, two people walked out from behind a brick wall, carrying a thick bamboo stick on their shoulders. Peng Weihua's limbs were tied to the bamboo sticks, hanging like a big roasted suckling pig.
Peng Weihua was sober, but his mouth was stuffed with a rag. When he suddenly saw Li Tianchou, his face turned red and his neck was thick, and his head was shaking. This time he was embarrassed in front of his apprentice.
After careful observation, Comrade Peng did not suffer any external injuries. It seemed that the short and fat man was quite sensible in his work, but he was a bit insulting. Li Tianchou frowned and nervously planned the countermeasures, but suddenly found that there was a reflection of light on a roof a few hundred meters away in the distance. Although it was only a short moment, he could not escape his eyes. Sniper! This was Li Tianchou's first reaction.
"How is it? It's real, brother, let me tell you." Teapot's eyes narrowed, but his face hidden behind the mask smiled strangely.
"It's true, but the price is too unreal. I'm cheating someone." Li Tianchou shook his head.
"I have always been simple in doing business. I will give you money and you don't have room to bargain."
"What if I can't afford this money?" Li Tianchou raised his eyebrows, stared at the short and fat man fiercely, but his feet were filled with strength.
"It's also simple. Parallel goods become dry goods. You can collect the body and go home." Teapot looked as usual, and did not take Li Tianchou's provocative gaze at all. (To be continued)
