Siheyuan, I want to lie down but I become a tool

Uncle Yougen called Zhang Xingwang to the side, asked quietly about the place of transaction, and stuffed a thick stack of money into him, saying that it was all the savings of the village. Let alone New Year's goods, the village couldn't even afford a bag of salt after tonight.

After learning that Zhang Xingwang was going to pick up the goods alone, Uncle Yougen stared at him for a long while before he said slowly in a deep voice:

"We'll be waiting for you at the foot of the mountain. Twenty-five minutes should be enough. Remember... your life is more important than money. If anything happens, save your life first. Explain it to them when you meet. If anything happens to you, I guarantee they won't survive tonight."

After Uncle Yougen gave him the instructions, he took out a hat from his bosom and handed it to him for him to put on. He turned his head and patted his shoulder vigorously. The corners of his mouth moved but he didn't say anything. His expression looked as if he was assigning him to carry a bag of explosives.

Zhang Xingwang was a little upset after hearing these words. It was probably because of the recent famine. There were too many people taking risks because they couldn't survive, so the old man and the others thought more about it.

After all, the old man has lived to such an old age, and this is the first time he has encountered selling large quantities of grain in a disaster year. Coupled with the price of grain, it feels like something is wrong. No matter how he thinks about it, the other party has a conspiracy, unless he is just stupid.

Although he knew that the so-called danger was that at most he would fall down because he couldn't see the road clearly, but the atmosphere in the valley was very full. Zhang Xingwang was still thinking happily that it was another night for him to be the boss.

Afterwards, Zhang, the boss, went up the back mountain with ease. Looking at the familiar big rock, he wanted to express his admiration and check in, but he found several very obvious marks on it.

He took a closer look with the flashlight and found that it should be the mark of a hunter family. They probably came to look for him. After thinking about it, he took out a knife and scratched a picture on a sack.

Time was running out, and Zhang Xingwang didn't care about anything else. He quickly took out 4,500 kilograms of food from the space. After thinking for a while, he threw in a large pile of grapes. Looking at the food piled up into a small mountain, and after confirming that nothing was missed, he took a flashlight and signaled towards the foot of the mountain.

As soon as he made the signal, he saw a few more spots of light at the foot of the mountain, moving visibly up the mountain. Less than a minute later, a few people suddenly jumped out from both sides. Zhang Xingwang thought something had happened and was about to take preemptive action when he discovered that they were all wearing the same hat as him.

When he got closer, he found that they were Brother Erniu and several villagers. Before he could open his mouth to ask what was going on, he was surrounded by several people. Brother Erniu and his cousin were even carrying something like a stretcher.

Before Zhang the boss had time to ask questions, he was put on a stretcher by many people and then carried down the mountain. The speed was so fast that after feeling the speed of the people, Zhang the boss did not dare to struggle to get down. He held on to the stretcher tightly for fear of falling down. After asking a few questions, the answer he got was to wait until he got down the mountain...

These people are good at traveling, and they cooperate with each other very well. Although the mountain road is not too rugged, they are indeed carrying the stretcher steadily. The two brothers crouched and trotted all the way, and the Chinese characters on the side were scattered around to explore the way. Although Zhang, the boss, felt a little embarrassed, he had to say that this stretcher was quite comfortable...

On the way, he met Uncle Yougen and his gang rushing up the mountain quickly. He wanted to stand up and say hello, but these people didn't even stop and didn't let him down until they entered the village.

"Xingwang, it's okay now...you can come down now!"

Looking at Erniu who was a little out of breath, Zhang Xingwang was powerless to complain. Today's script as the boss had failed. He asked with a smile:

"Brother Erniu, I told you guys that there's no danger. You guys are making a big fuss about it. It was nothing serious. I was almost scared to death by you guys. If I fell, I would have rolled down the mountain."

"Don't worry about us. Our skills in carrying people are among the best in the village. How could we fall on the road in our own village? Uncle Yougen said he was afraid that you might have an accident, so he asked us to hide nearby before dark. You wait for Uncle Yougen here. We will go home to eat first. We are very hungry if we move."

Zhang Xingwang was stunned, it seemed that this link was also part of the old man's plan. He probably expected that he would trade there again, and arranged people to protect him early. It seemed that he had to change the place next time, but he always felt something was weird.

"Brother Erniu, you just mentioned the skill of carrying people? You also work as a medic? Wait... you don't usually take jobs for free, do you?"

"Of course not. There was a funeral nearby and we were the ones who did it. But you're the first one to do it. Our skills are second to none. Anyway, we've done it so many times and no one has ever said our skills are bad!"

"I...you...well, I don't have anything else to talk to you about, so go eat."

Zhang Xingwang felt depressed. If someone gave you a bad review for your side job, you would have changed your career overnight. He didn’t understand why Brother Erniu didn’t follow in his father’s footsteps and became a chef. But then he thought it wasn’t right. I’m a chef and my son is a waiter. Isn’t this a complete funeral service…

After waiting for a long time, Uncle Gen did not come down. Instead, Uncle Big Head and Uncle Baozhu from the village came. Uncle Baozhu greeted him and hurried to find Brother Erniu. Uncle Big Head looked at Zhang Xingwang who looked puzzled, and said with a suppressed smile:

"Youyougen uncle refused to listen to my advice and insisted on spreading out to make an outflanking move. As a result, he tripped while running. If Baozhu behind him hadn't reacted quickly and stepped on him, he would have almost rolled down the mountain."

"Step on it? Is Uncle Yougen seriously injured?"

"It's nothing serious, I just sprained my ankle and bruised it, so I need to take care of it for a few days. Luckily, your wall collapsed, otherwise it would be troublesome to deliver the eggs."

Zhang Xingwang felt a little depressed when he saw Brother Erniu and his friends going up the mountain with steamed buns in their mouths. He didn't expect that Brother Erniu would make an exception and carry two living people in one night.

After a while, villagers came down one after another carrying their loads on their shoulders. They said that Uncle Yougen refused to get on the stretcher and was watching the grain transportation from the big rock. Uncle Big Head also followed the villagers to the canteen and whispered that he was afraid that the villagers would steal grain on the way, so he asked him to stay in the canteen first and settle the accounts after they were done. He said that with him watching over them, nothing would go wrong.

Zhang Xingwang didn't leave either. He watched Big Head Uncle follow him up the mountain four times, until the last trip when Uncle Yougen was carried down with him. Before he even arrived, he heard Uncle Yougen laughing wildly and saying something like the cafeteria didn't need to be closed this time.

Uncle Yougen seemed to have a head injury. The blood and sweat on his face looked quite intimidating. He lost his voice the moment he noticed Zhang Xingwang and dodged Zhang Xingwang's inquiring gaze.

He silently turned his body to the side, sighed and said that he was going to the cafeteria to settle the bill, and without waiting for Zhang Xingwang to answer, he frantically signaled Brother Erniu to leave quickly...
