178, Town Escape(1/2)
The boss was a middle-aged man in his forties. He was talking to the truck driver. After hearing Qian Xuyang's voice, he turned and looked at Qian Xuyang.
"It's you. I remember you were here the day before yesterday."
Qian Xuyang laughed and said, "Yes, boss, I see you are preparing to unload the goods again today. How about it? Let me help you."
In order to earn food the day before yesterday, Qian Xuyang helped the boss unload the goods here. He just wanted food. In total, he didn't have much money, so the boss naturally didn't have any objections.
Today Qian Xuyang came again and brought a laborer. The boss thought about it and nodded in agreement.
"Okay, but how will your remuneration today be the same as last time?"
Qian Xuyang was about to agree, but Qi Wan asked aloud: "Boss, what is the reward you mentioned?"
Although the conversation was cut off, the boss was not angry and answered Qi Wang directly.
"It's nothing, just some food, such as bread, biscuits, sausages, instant noodles and the like."
After hearing the boss's examples of these foods, Qi Wang glanced at Qian Xuyang and saw that he didn't seem to think there was any problem at all. He felt a little helpless in his heart.
It’s no wonder the boss is happy to get so little food after unloading such a truckload of goods.
"Boss, I wonder if you can give us some food like rice and flour as payment this time?"
Hearing Qi Wang's request, the boss was slightly startled, but rice noodles and other foods were no different from other foods. He thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.
"Okay, but if I give you these things, I won't help unload the car. You two will have to do it yourself."
Qian Xuyang naturally had no objection. After Qi Wang decided on the specific quantity of rice noodles they wanted with the boss, he started to get busy.
The back compartment of the pickup truck opened, revealing a truck full of cargo.
Qi Wang looked at the truck full of goods and frowned slightly.
This owner runs a department store, but all the goods in the truck have the same outer packaging. Looking at the outer packaging, you can't tell what's inside.
When they were far away, they didn't notice anything, but after the truck door opened, Qi Wang smelled a faint fishy smell.
While Qi Huan was thinking, Qian Xuyang had already rolled up his sleeves and started to move the goods. Seeing that Qi Huan had been standing still, he said: "Brother Qi, your body is
If you are weak, I can do it alone."
Qi Wang's face darkened for a moment.
It's impossible for him to be a man.
"Who says I can't do it?"
Qi Wang said and stopped thinking, rolled up his sleeves and moved the goods together.
When he first looked at it, he thought the goods were quite heavy, but when he started to move them, he found that the weight of the boxes was much lighter than he expected. He could easily lift two boxes at a time by himself.
After moving these boxes into the store, he put them away according to the boss's instructions. Qi Wang clapped his hands, looked at the boss who was standing aside and counted the numbers, and asked casually: "Boss, what are inside these boxes?"
What cargo?”
The boss quickly replied: "They are all things sold in the store."
He only said one sentence, and the others were unwilling to say more. Qi Wang didn't ask any more questions, and helped unload the goods from the car with Qian Xuyang.
The goods were not heavy, and it didn't take the two of them long to unload all the goods in the truck.
Qi Wang didn't feel much, but Qian Xuyang was obviously very tired, and his clothes were soaked with sweat from his body.
Qi Wang was completely different from Qian Xuyang. There was only a thin layer of sweat on his head, his face was not red and he was not out of breath, as if he was not the one who just moved the goods back and forth.
Qian Xuyang raised his hand and wiped the sweat from his face. He looked at Qi Wang and saw that he still looked fresh and refreshed. He said with some jealousy.
"Brother Qi, I really can't believe that your body is so good. You can move just as much stuff as me. I'm so tired that I'm paralyzed. How can you still be so energetic?"
At this time, the boss also brought out the previously agreed reward. He handed a bag of rice and a bag of noodles to Qi Wang, then smiled and patted Qian Xuyang's arm and said, "Brother, you
This body looks pretty tough, why is it so good but not useful? He is much thinner than you, look at him, then look at you?"
The boss gave Qian Xuyang a knowing blow, but then he thought of Qi Wang's record, and his unwillingness disappeared.
"Don't look at my brother Qi, who is thin and weak, but he is much more powerful than me."
The boss smiled and glanced at Qi Wan.
"You don't need to tell me to tell me this. Okay, I have other things to do, so I won't leave you here. If there is a chance, I will ask you to help me unload the goods."
The boss has already issued an eviction order, and Qi Wang and Qian Xuyang are not very popular.
After stopping, the two of them carried rice noodles and walked towards the B&B.
"Brother Qi, why do you want rice and noodles? We are not very good at cooking. If you ask for semi-finished products, we can still make them. If you want rice and noodles, what should we do with them?"
Qi Wang said: "Don't worry, I will take care of all these things. With these fifteen kilograms of rice and fifteen kilograms of noodles, if the two of us save a little, we won't have to worry about food in the next twenty days."
.”
After hearing Qi Wang's words, Qian Xuyang scratched his head and asked in a low voice: "Then are we the only ones eating this rice and noodles?"
Qi Wang glanced at Qian Xuyang and asked: "Besides the two of us, who else do you want to eat? Your friends?"
Having said this, Qi Wang's voice became colder, and there was a hint of coldness in his brows.
"If you want to follow me, you have to draw a line with Qi Yan and the others. If you are trying to do both, you will capsize."
Qian Xuyang waved his hand hurriedly and said: "Brother Qi, you misunderstood me. Since I am following you, I definitely don't want to go back to that group of people. I just asked casually, not what I really want to do."
Qi Wan glanced at him, did not speak, and quickly walked towards the B&B with the two bags of rice and noodles.
Seeing that Qi Huan seemed to be really angry, Qian Xuyang scratched his head. He didn't know what to say to make Qi Huan continue to trust him. At the same time, he also felt that he was really rude just now. He should do what he said properly.
What? You pissed off Qi Wang in vain.
When the two returned to the B&B, no one else had come back yet. Qi Wang put the rice noodles they got back into his room and hid them, and then went downstairs.
Seeing Qi Wang acting like this, Qian Xuyang couldn't help but ask: "Brother Qi, we have found food, do we still want to go out?"
This town is too weird. The B&B is a relatively safe place. Qian Xuyang doesn't want to go out. He thinks staying in the B&B is the safest.
Qi Huan said without looking back: "Let me see if there is any way to earn some more food. We have to survive in the town for more than twenty days. No one knows what accidents will happen in the future. Prepare more food."
You can’t go wrong with them.”
He didn't believe the world could be so safe.
Qian Xuyang also felt that what Qi Wang said was reasonable. He didn't say anything else and left the B&B with Qi Wang.
This time the two of them changed directions and wanted to see if they could find a way to earn some food back.
Halfway through, the two met a couple who were worried because their car broke down.
An ownerless couple seemed to have something urgent to do and wanted to leave the town. However, the only repair shop in the town was closed again. The couple couldn't find a place to park their car and were so anxious that they wandered around on the road.
"It's all your fault. I asked you to check the car yesterday, but you refused to go. Look, we can't leave now, right?"
The young woman was so angry that she stamped her feet, stretched out her fingers stained with red nail polish, and poked her husband's shoulder hard.
The honest and honest man scratched his head and begged the woman again and again: "Nana, I don't want to either. Who knew the car would suddenly break down? What do you think we should do now?"
The young girl named Nana poked the honest man on the shoulder hard and kept complaining over and over in her mouth.
When Qi Wan and Qian Xuyang came over, the honest man also got angry after being scolded, and the couple started to quarrel with each other in anger.
Seeing that Qi Wang seemed to want to step forward, Qian Xuyang hurriedly grabbed Qi Wang's arm and said, "Brother Qi, I saw these two people arguing here yesterday and the day before yesterday. They didn't check the car every time.
After there was a problem, there was an argument, and in the end they wanted to take action, so we better not go over there..."
However, Qi Wang did not listen to Qian Xuyang's words. He took his arm out of Qian Xuyang's hand and strode towards the couple.
At this time, just as Qian Xuyang said, the couple had already quarreled and seemed to be preparing to fight, but Qi Wang stepped forward and stopped them directly.
"You two, I see that your car is broken down. I happen to know a lot about auto repairs. I wonder if I can help you take a look at the car."
The couple was about to fight, but when Qi Huan said this, they both calmed down. They all turned to look at Qi Huan, and saw that his face was serious, and he didn't look like he was joking.
The two of them nodded in agreement.
"Master, if you can help us repair the car, it will be a great help to us, and we will remember your kindness."
Qi Wan smiled and said: "Remember the kindness, it's not necessary. If I repair your car, you can give me some reward. I won't be a big talker, just give me the market price."
The couple looked at each other and nodded in agreement.
"Can."
Seeing that the two of them agreed, Qi Huan began to check the car. Fortunately, the car only had some minor faults, and Qi Huan solved the problem with some small tools that came with the car.
Watching the broken down car
The child restarted, and the young couple's faces showed joy. The honest man took out his wallet, took a bunch of money directly from it, and stuffed countless coins into Qi Wan's hands.
"Master, I really want to thank you so much. I'll give you all this money. There's no need to change it. You've helped us a lot. The rest will be given to you as a thank you fee."
Qi Wang did not refuse and accepted all the money.
"Although I have solved the problem, your car is also due for maintenance. Remember to maintain the car after you go out."
The two nodded repeatedly, and after thanking Qi Wan, they got into the car. They said hello to Qi Wan and drove away from the place.
"Brother Qi, you are so awesome. Is there anything else you can't do?"
