Traveling through the 1940s, the whole village was massacred at the beginning

Chapter 964 Follow Orders and Work

Hearing what Nan Hai said, Jiang Jiyun felt a pang of sorrow in his heart.

She watched Nan Hai eat, seeing him wolf down his steamed buns, and soon he had eaten several more large ones.

Seeing that the large basket of steamed buns was almost empty, Jiang Wenming stood up and quickly took out another basket of steamed buns. There were only young men sitting here, and each of them had an amazing appetite. There must be enough for them.

Nan Hai gratefully accepted the two steamed buns that Jiang Wenming handed him, saying, "Thank you, Uncle! I haven't had such a full meal in a long time."

Jiang Wenming looked at Nan Hai's full beard and his lips twitched involuntarily.

He thought to himself, "I've gained another nephew!"

After dinner, Jiang Jiyun and Jiang Wenming sneaked away to the side and whispered to each other.

Jiang Wenming nodded occasionally, a thoughtful expression on his face, seemingly unsure of what they were whispering about.

After a while, Jiang Jiyun slowly walked to the tree, then plopped down on the door panel and lay down comfortably.

This jujube tree has lush foliage, and sunlight filters through the gaps in the leaves, creating dappled patterns of light and shadow.

Jiang Jiyun lay on the door panel, perfectly shaded by the trees. She was protected from the sun and could feel the cool breeze on her face. It was a very pleasant place to take a nap.

Jiang Wenming went to find Zhao Huashan and, just like Jiang Jiyun and him before, spoke quietly.

After a while, Jiang Wenming finished speaking, took out a rolled-up straw mat from the house, quickly spread it on the ground, and then followed Jiang Jiyun's example, lay down, and prepared to get a good night's sleep.

Zhao Huashan and Xiao Tian looked at the uncle and nephew who had already gone to sleep, exchanged a glance, and shook their heads helplessly.

These two guys really know how to enjoy themselves. Once they open their mouths, I have no choice but to resign myself to going out to work.

"Let's go, let's follow orders and get to work!" Zhao Huaxia said to Xiao Tian with a smile.

Fu Jingyu noticed the fatigue on Hu Dahe and the others' faces.

He thought for a moment and then volunteered, saying, "You all rest, Dahei, Erhei, and I will take care of the house."

Hu Dahe and Han Tao looked at Fu Jingyu with some surprise upon hearing this.

They didn't expect the young man to offer to help.

However, since Fu Jingyu had said so, they couldn't refuse, so they nodded, thanked him, and then turned around and went inside to rest.

Fu Jingyu watched their retreating figures, smiled slightly, and then turned to Dahei and Erhei, who were lying under the eaves, and said, "Let's go and guard the door."

Big Black and Little Black seemed to understand him, wagging their tails and following behind him to the entrance of the small courtyard.

Nan Hai wasn't idle either. He took out a secret manual that Xiao Tian had given him from his pocket and sat on the threshold next to Fu Jingyu, reading it carefully.

When he encounters a word he doesn't recognize, he humbly asks Fu Jingyu, who is standing next to him, for help.

Fu Jingyu was very patient and would explain things to him in detail each time.

Outside, Jiang Jiyuan finally caught up with the car that Xiao Wei was driving.

After meeting, the two did not exchange many words, but tacitly set off along a side path to continue escorting the Yue sisters back to Yichun City.

When they stopped to rest on the road, Jiang Jiyuan personally treated Yue Jiarou's wounds.

He carefully removed the bullet from Yue Jiarou's arm, then quickly applied hemostatic powder and bandaged it.

After treating their wounds, they continued their journey without stopping.

After a long journey, they finally met Jiang Wenxing, who had come to meet them, a few dozen miles from the city.

Mr. Yue was also in the car. When he saw his two daughters covered in dust and looking disheveled, his heart ached as if it were being cut by a knife.

At this moment, the butler got off the car behind carrying a wooden box and handed it to his young mistress.

Yue Jiayu took the box and stuffed it back into Jiang Jiyuan's arms, saying, "The contents are inside. We've settled the transaction!"

Xiao Wei noticed Jiang Jiyuan's gaze and, understanding the unspoken message, pretended to go to the back of the car to get something.

Jiang Wenxing's gaze fell on Xiao Wei, who was walking over, and noticed the wooden box in his arms. The box looked rather heavy, and Xiao Wei's arm muscles were tense from bearing the weight.

"This is the payment for the goods. Please accept it. Now that you are safe, we will be leaving." Jiang Jiyuan said politely with a smile.

Yue Jiayu nodded to the bodyguard her father trusted, signaling him to take it.

Xiao Wei handed the box to the other party and opened it for inspection. The butler went over to check, took the lid, closed it, and had it returned to the car.

After seeing that the Yue family had taken stock, Jiang Jiyuan turned around to say goodbye to Jiang Wenxing and then walked quickly to the car parked not far away.

Xiao Wei was already in the driver's seat. Seeing Jiang Jiyuan get into another car, he immediately started the car and slowly drove away from the scene.

Looking through the rearview mirror at Jiang Wenxing driving further and further away, Jiang Jiyuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

After driving for a while, the car came to a section of road that was rarely visited by people.

Xiao Wei parked the car on the side of the road, and Jiang Jiyuan also got out of the car and put it back into his spatial storage. Together with Xiao Wei, they headed towards their destination.

Jiang Wenxing stood there, gazing in the direction where Jiang Jiyuan and Xiao Wei had left, lost in thought.

He knew very well what Jiang Jiyuan and the Yue family were trading.

Everyone knows that the Communist army is extremely short of money, and now it also has to support those superhumans with special abilities, so the financial pressure is unimaginable.

Therefore, when they learn that a gold mine is available for sale, they will definitely try every means to buy it.

However, Jiang Wenxing had a question in his mind: Aren't they afraid that they won't be able to mine this gold mine?

After all, mining gold requires specialized technology and equipment, as well as a large amount of manpower and resources. Do they have these conditions now?

Just as Jiang Wenxing was deep in thought, Yue Jiayu walked over.

Seeing Jiang Wenxing's icy face, she took the initiative to explain, "Brother-in-law, don't overthink it. They are your relatives, and they even saved me and my sister. Our family sold that thing to your nephew at a low price out of gratitude."

Upon hearing Yue Jiayu's voice, Jiang Wenxing snapped back to reality, turned to look at her, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

He paused for a moment, then slowly said, "I understand, they do need this gold mine more than we do."

Seeing the confusion on Yue Jiayu's face, Jiang Wenxing explained, "We already know what you mean. Your father has already told me that he doesn't want to be resented by both sides and just wants to live a peaceful life with you."

Yue Jiayu then understood why he wasn't surprised.

As Mr. Yue was gesturing for the two sisters to get into the car, Yue Jiayu took a few steps forward, then turned back to Jiang Wenxing and said, "I suspect your cousin and your niece are in trouble. Your nephew has been trying to hold back his emotions the whole way, and I heard Xiao Wei comforting him when we rested on the road."
