The billionaire girl: Daddy and Mommy, love me again
Chapter 67: Road robbery
"Ouch......!"
Boss Cheng hurriedly pulled the reins and stopped.
"Ouch, my nose!"
"Fuck...Boss Cheng, do you know how to drive?"
"........"
The sudden braking caused several people in the car to fall into a heap, their noses and faces colliding with each other, and they cried out in pain.
"Oh, I'm sorry, it's an emergency. I don't know who has piled the rocks on the road, blocking it. The carriage can't pass."
"What? The road is blocked!"
Cheng Zeli hurriedly opened the curtain and saw the stones on the road with a solemn expression.
It's time to come.
"Be prepared. We may be robbed. Everyone, please be careful."
Just as he finished speaking, a group of ragged, skinny bandits suddenly emerged from the woods on both sides of the road. They waved axes and hoes with great effort, drooling greedily at the carriage.
The leader, a strong-looking man, said angrily, "Get off the bus, everyone. I built this road and planted this tree. If you want to pass this way, you have to pay for the passage."
As soon as he finished speaking, Boss Cheng and the others were still sitting in the car as steady as a rock, with contempt and ridicule on their faces, as if they had seen through their tricks and sneered at what he said.
The man was furious, pretending to be fierce and threatening, "Are you deaf? I told you to come down, if you don't come down, don't blame us for being rude. We originally planned to let you pay the money and let you go, but now it seems that you are courting death."
Boss Cheng sneered, waved the whip in his hand, and said sarcastically: "If you move the stones on the road obediently, I can be gentler later and won't make you cry too ugly.
Now that the epidemic is over, the government has distributed relief food to everyone. You have hands and feet, and you will not starve to death as long as you work hard. Why do you have to be a thief when you can do something else?
There is a road to heaven but you don't take it, and there is no door to hell but you break in."
"Boss, why are you still nagging him? Since they don't want to accept our toast, don't blame us for being rude! Brothers, come on, they can afford the carriage, so they must have a lot of money. Don't look at their shabby clothes, they must be trying to confuse everyone."
"Don't use too much force, just take their money and carriage, don't kill anyone!"
The man saw his tribesmen swarming towards the carriage and was afraid that they might act without restraint and kill others.
However, he was worrying too much and was worrying about the wrong person. How could a group of skinny people like them, who could hardly even raise their hands, be a match for Boss Cheng and his gang?
Before Cheng Zeli and Cheng Erfu could make a move, Boss Cheng and his men took advantage and beat the group of people to a pulp, sending them falling to the ground wailing.
When the leader saw Boss Cheng and his men approaching, he was so frightened that his soul left his body. His legs were shaking. He knelt on the ground and kowtowed frequently.
"Please spare my life, my dears. I am blind and ignorant. I am too bold to bear the brunt of my own mistakes. Please forgive me and let them live.
We were forced into this situation. We have elderly parents and young children at home, and the food distributed by the government was snatched away by bandits in the mountains. We were so hungry that we had to resort to this desperate measure.
I am a villain who has no eyes to recognize a great man. I deserve death. Please forgive them. They know nothing. I instigated them to come. What happened today is all my fault. I am willing to bear the consequences alone. Please let my people go!"
"Village Chief! How can it be your fault? It was us. We came up with this idea. We were the ones who wanted to rob. How can you blame it all on you?"
The man lying on the ground was deeply moved when he saw his village chief kneeling on the ground with his forehead bleeding, humbly asking for a way to live for them.
He supported himself on the ground with his hands, slowly stood up and knelt in front of the carriage, looking steadily at Boss Cheng and the others.
"It has nothing to do with our village chief. It was my idea and I asked everyone to rob you. If you are angry, just blame me. I, Deng Biao, take responsibility for my own actions. I hope you will be magnanimous and let our village chief and my people go!"
"Biaozi!"
"Brother Biao!"
"..."
There were mournful cries from the crowd, and everyone looked at Boss Cheng and the others with fear and longing.
"Get up! We have no intention of hurting you. We are ordinary people. This carriage was lent to us by Qianzhou Jimin Pharmacy."
Everyone was surprised and delighted when they heard this.
"Quick, move the stone away and let the brave men pass!"
Village chief Deng was so grateful that he asked the villagers to remove the roadblocks and he joined in.
Before leaving, Cheng Laoer patted Village Chief Deng on the shoulder.
"Brother, I respect you as a man, so I'm going to tell you a piece of news. Please think about it carefully."
"Good man! You say!"
"It is the tea oil seed picking season on the mountain now. Why don't you go up the mountain to pick the tea oil seeds? Someone will come to collect them in a few days. Or you can invest some money and buy them from others. Raw tea oil seeds are one cent for three catties, and dried tea oil kernels are six cents for one catty."
Village chief Deng was overjoyed when he heard this.
"really?"
"It's true. If you believe us, just give it a try. You'll know the result in seven days."
"Of course I can trust you. Thank you for showing us the way to survival!"
After saying this, Village Chief Deng bowed deeply.
In this way, the carriage sailed away to Pingyang County amid the people of Dengjia Village's numerous thanks.
In Chengjia Village, every household was building houses as usual.
However, everyone was in Cao's camp but their hearts were with Han. While they were building houses, their minds were drifting away. From time to time, someone would climb to the top of the mountain and look forward to it, under the pretext of cutting down trees for roof beams.
The walls that Old Man Cheng built in the past two days were all crooked. For the sake of everyone's future safety, Zhang simply asked him to take the fourth and fifth sons to the mountain to cut trees.
At this time, the father and his two sons were standing on a big rock on the top of the mountain, standing on tiptoe and looking in the direction of Pingyang County.
"I don't know if they have sold the ginseng. Logically, they should have returned."
"Dad, you worry too much. Purple ginseng is so precious. How could it not be sold? There are so many people vying for it."
Cheng Laowu was lying on a big rock with his legs crossed, holding a piece of grass in his mouth, and said nonchalantly.
"It is precisely because purple ginseng is so precious and rare that we should be more worried. If we encounter those who rob us, can we defeat them?"
Cheng Laosi said as he sorted out the medicinal herbs he had just dug up the mountain.
Cheng Laowu stood up suddenly.
"What should we do? It's very dangerous if they fail to sell the ginseng. Should we ask someone to go and fend for it?"
"No need, they're already back!"
Old Man Cheng spoke with irrepressible joy in his tone as he pointed at the small black dot that was becoming clearer and clearer on the official road at the foot of the mountain.
"Look, isn't that your eldest brother in the carriage?"
