Chapter 252 Mystery Men Hijacked the Cargo?
They directly skipped over De Ertai and did not ask him any questions because De Ertai’s Chu language was too incoherent. They had to slowly interpret what he was saying, which they didn’t want to do.
“Actually, it is not a secret, but it is just a little embarrassing for us.”
The keen Gu Hunge had already noticed that Chu Yunshen and the others had extraordinary identities.
In the beginning, Gu Hunge was worried about their business, so like He Lulu, all he wanted to do was survive. But as Xiaowu asked them more and more questions, Gu Hunge had vaguely figured out that Chu Yunshen and the others were here to investigate something.
As for what Chu Yunshen and the others were here for, Gu Hunge did not want to know. In their circle, the more things one knew, the more likely one’s life was at risk. In order to not offend Chu Yunshen and his team, Gu Hunge wanted to provide the answers they were seeking.
“The supplier is often short of supply, but the goods of other people are not as hot-selling as his, so we have no choice but to let He Lulu rush the supplier several times.” Gu Hunge pointed to He Lulu as he spoke. When He Lulu nodded, he continued.
“After many times, He Lulu found out that the supplier would always leave a batch of goods but it was not for us. At that time, we asked him about it and found out that the goods were prepared for another merchant. Moreover, this merchant is still asking for the goods.”
Gu Hunge said what he thought. He was eloquent, and he was born to intrigue people into listening to his words. In addition, Cheng Xiaoxiao knew a part of the things he said before, so even Cheng Xiaoxiao believed what Gu Hunge said.
When Chu Yunshen heard that another merchant was asking for the goods from the supplier, he quickly exchanged a look with Xiaowu.
Wan Xia was dead, and Chu Yunshen had personally checked the body. It was impossible for her to go to the supplier for the goods again. However, the “big client” that Hu merchants mentioned was still asking for the goods from the supplier. Was it possible that the “big client” was doing the same business as these Hu merchants, and Wan Xia’s goods happened to be bought from the “big client”?
Xiaowu received Chu Yunshen’s gaze and quickly asked Gu Hunge, who was still thinking of finishing his story.
“Do you know the identity of the ‘big client’? Are they engaged in the same reselling business as you?”
“They…” Gu Hunge raised his head and thought for a long time. Then, he tilted his head to look at He Lulu and began to discuss with him, “Don’t you think that they are very powerful? They dared to attack us in our territory at that time. Moreover, the people they sent are all well-trained. They don’t look like local ruffians and hooligans that are randomly picked off the street.”
He Lulu opened his mouth but did not speak. Xiaowu cut in and asked with interest.
“Have you fought?”
“Ah… Yes. It is because they took a part of our goods, so we wanted to teach them a lesson. After all, we can’t knock some senses into the supplier’s head!” Gu Hunge suddenly realized that he had missed out on the most important reason, so he quickly added.
“Besides, He Lulu said that those people were very generous and loaded. We are worried that they will take away our part.”
“But didn’t you say that the supplier doesn’t care about money?”
Xiaowu looked at Gu Hunge with a strange look, feeling a little confused about their contradictory words.
“Just because he doesn’t care about money doesn’t mean he has a grudge with money! The money is already there, how can he not take it?” Gu Hunge glanced at Xiaowu in dismay. He didn’t know how to explain the difference between the two. “Anyway, we always feel that the supplier is more inclined to that side. In short, those people are a big threat to us!”
Gu Hunge looked at Xiaowu sincerely. Unfortunately, his squinting eyes were too small. Even if he struggled to open his eyes, the people present could not see the expression in his eyes clearly.
Xiaowu crossed his arms in front of his chest and just looked at Gu Hunge but did not speak.
Since he didn’t get any response, Gu Hunge thought that he didn’t make it clear enough, so he continued to explain.
“Let’s not talk about this. Anyway, we just wanted to teach them a lesson and then get some money or goods from them. We didn’t expect that…”
“You didn’t expect to be beaten up by them?”
This time, before Gu Hunge could finish, Xiaowu interjected and asked.
“Y-Yes… but that’s not the case. Anyway, we all think that those people are a little strange,” Gu Hunge explained with some embarrassment, trying to polish their image.
However, just as he finished saying the word “yes”, Cheng Xiaoxiao showed an expression of “I understand everything”. Xiaowu and the others did not show any unusual expression, but their eyes were full of understanding.
Cheng Xiaoxiao estimated that if Chu Yunshen was not present now, these people would definitely make a meaningful exclamation like her.
“Strange? What do you mean?”
In the end, it was Xiaowu who interrupted Cheng Xiaoxiao’s gaze.
But even so, Gu Hunge was still a little awkward. He shook his big fat head and motioned for He Lulu to speak a few words. Unfortunately, He Lulu did not look at him at all.
As for De Ertai on the other side, he was eager to look at Gu Hunge, but Gu Hunge knew De Ertai better than Xiaowu and the others, so he naturally did not dare to let De Ertai talk nonsense.
If De Ertai said something wrong, all their previous efforts would be wasted.
Gu Hunge resigned himself to his fate and looked back at Chu Yunshen, just in time to meet the questioning look of Xiaowu who was waiting for his answer.
“Not only did they locate our warehouse directly, but their skills were also extraordinary.”
Gu Hunge no longer evaded the question. He seriously recalled the embarrassing memories.
“Are you saying that they are all very skilled, or did they come directly to you?”
Hearing this, Xiaowu was a little surprised and put down his arms. He did not expect Gu Hunge to say this. He looked at Chu Yunshen, hoping to get some help from him.
Cheng Xiaoxiao also sat up from Chu Yunshen’s arms. She did not have the time to laugh at Xiaowu. After all, those who sold Datura powder could locate this warehouse, but Xiaowu’s first investigation could only lead him to that shabby yard.
She was not such a brainless simpleton. Although her first reaction was to think that Xiaowu was not capable enough, she realized that something was wrong with this matter after a second thought.
Who was Xiaowu? He was Chu Yunshen’s chief guard!
When had there ever been a weak guy working for Chu Yunshen? All of them were capable people who were proficient in both martial arts and intelligence.
Moreover, with Chu Yunshen’s strength, he had just given his order, and that very night, Xiaowu had found the courtyard, and the next night, the warehouse, although they couldn’t locate the exact location of the warehouse. The level of investigation and intelligence was already a huge leap in ancient times when there was no internet and all connections.
Cheng Xiaoxiao did not expect that there would be someone more powerful than Chu Yunshen. No, they were as powerful as Chu Yunshen.
Could it be that those people were not just ordinary resellers, but big shots with powerful backgrounds?
Cheng Xiaoxiao fell into deep thought. She was sitting in Chu Yunshen’s arms, so at this moment, her posture was like that of an old monk meditating.
Seeing that Persian cat was quiet and did not make a fuss, Chu Yunshen did not care about Persian cat anymore. He pursed his thin lips and thought about Gu Hunge’s description.
Although he had been on the battle outside all year round, he had always kept a complete underground network in the capital, and some of his hidden guards were in charge of this underground network. If he wanted to investigate the matters of the capital, Chu Yunshen would use this underground network to obtain secret information.
This was why Chu Yunshen was even more curious about the identity of this “big client” who bought the goods, because they had an intelligence network as powerful as his underground network.
It seemed that the big client really had a special identity.
Chu Yunshen and the Persian cat, who was in his arms, had a rare moment when they shared the same thought, but both of them were contemplating the thoughts in their mind. If they had said it out loud, Cheng Xiaoxiao would have definitely high-fived him.
Sensing that the eyes of the people present had suddenly become serious and the atmosphere in the warehouse suddenly became a bit tense, Gu Hunge spoke with caution.
“Yes. That’s not all. Those people even said that it’s best if we don’t interfere with each other, or they will kick us out of Chu.”
“Did you see their looks clearly?”
The voice was very cold, without a trace of warmth. It was obviously that the owner of this domineering tone was not Xiaowu, but it was Chu Yunshen.
Chu Yunshen asked a question personally. It seemed that this matter was indeed serious.
From their remarks and response, Cheng Xiaoxiao felt that the “big client” Gu Hunge was talking about was a big shot. There must be something wrong in this matter, or Chu Yunshen would not give so much attention to this matter.
“No, they were all masked, and the leader seemed to have deliberately lowered his voice to speak. In short, they are very mysterious.”
Chu Yunshen’s sudden question made Gu Hunge even more nervous. He was afraid that if he said something wrong, it would upset Chu Yunshen.
“Although we don’t know who they are and what they do with the goods, we figured that they are not the same as us.”
Gu Hunge himself was not very satisfied with what he said. It was meaningless to talk back and forth. However, after thinking about it for a while, there was indeed nothing much to say. He could only recall it one last time. Then, he concluded dryly.
“As for the rest… there is nothing else.”
After saying that, Gu Hunge looked at He Lulu with worry, wanting to get an affirmative response from He Lulu.
“Why didn’t you make it clear earlier?”
Chu Yunshen spoke again, but this time, the person he asked was not Gu Hunge, but He Lulu, who had been silent the entire time.
His expression was still indifferent, and he was still holding the snow-white cat in his arms. He did not look like a threat at all, but He Lulu still felt an invisible pressure. He answered Chu Yunshen almost without hesitation.
“Firstly, this happened quite some time ago. Secondly, it is a bit shameful for us, so we all kept silent. Over time, we deliberately forgot about this matter.”
