We had an appointment, and Shen Tao came to the door early the next morning. After a brief greeting, the carriage headed straight for Donglou Town.
"Sir, do you know that after the banquet last night, something very satisfying happened?"
Because Chen Mo didn't want to think of himself as an evangelist in private, Shen Tao changed his name to sir.
"What's going on?" Chen Mo vaguely guessed.
"Wang Jun, he was beaten. I heard that he was beaten very badly and he was sent directly to the hospital." When talking about this, Shen Tao looked relieved.
"It would be abnormal for that kind of person not to get beaten." Chen Mo smiled, recalling the scene last night.
Huang Shulang, you are really cruel.
In the end, if Wang Jun hadn't alerted the night patrol officers by crying for his father and mother, he might have been beaten to paralysis.
Chen Mo felt very happy at the time, but now that he thinks about it, it seems a bit excessive.
He is not afraid of revenge from Wang Jun or the Wang family. The main reason is that Huang Shulang and Huang Zheng are worried about having a son and cannot withstand any accidents.
Thinking of this, Chen Mo asked.
"Shen Tao, how much do you know about Wang Jun?"
"Mr. Hui, my personal knowledge is limited, but I heard some things from the Qian brothers." Shen Tao recalled, "Wang Jun's grandfather is among the three elders in the town, and the Wang family is the richest man in Qingyang Town. Compared with this What's even more powerful is that Wang Jun's mother is said to have a close relationship with Longhu Trading Company in the city."
"Longhu Trading Company?" Chen Mo frowned, "What do you do?"
"On the surface they are a caravan, but in reality they are engaged in illegal business using force."
Speaking of this, Shen Tao's tone became more solemn.
"Baihe County is a border town and has frequent trade with Yan and Xia countries. Risks are inevitable in the process of doing business. This is what Longhu Trading Company eats."
"So, Longhu Trading Company is actually a bodyguard agency?" Chen Mo understood.
"Sir, what is an escort agency?" Shen Tao was confused.
"It's a name for the Far North. To put it bluntly, it provides security protection for caravans." Chen Mo explained casually.
"That's it." Shen Tao nodded, "The founder of Longhu Trading Company is named Zhou Long, the second in charge is named Zhou Hu, and Wang Jun's mother is named Zhou Feng'er."
"Brothers and sisters?" Chen Mo muttered and asked.
"It should be." Shen Tao said uncertainly, "The student has not confirmed it with his own eyes. I heard from others that Wang Jun often visited Longhu Trading Firm."
"That's right." Chen Mo nodded, "How much do you know about the dragon and tiger pair?"
"Students heard that they are all ruthless people who kill people without batting an eye. Actually, if you think about it, it is true that they often travel among the Three Kingdoms. It would be strange if they are not evil." Shen Tao lamented.
"..."
Chen Mo didn't speak anymore, but looked at Huang Shulang who was driving the car through the gap.
It seems that this matter will have twists and turns in the future, so we must take precautions in advance.
"Sir, let's take a nap. The student will go and give directions to Shulang so that he doesn't go astray." Shen Tao didn't say anything more.
The carriage was rickety and took about an hour to arrive at Donglou Town, then turned onto the northwest road and headed towards the village where Qin Xianglian's mother's family was located.
Shen Tao's home was in a neighboring village, so he said goodbye after arriving. However, before Chen Mo could respond, angry curses came from the yard.
"You bitch, what happened to me selling a cow? Although I am not your biological father, I have raised you for so many years. Have your conscience been eaten by a dog?"
Is this the voice of Qin Sandao?
Qin Sandao, Qin Xianglian's adoptive father, cut off his fingers three times because he was addicted to gambling, hence his nickname.
Of course, you can't believe a word of what a gambler says. Every time he chops off his fingers, he will sneak into the casino again within a few days.
For the sake of gambling, Qin Sandao almost wiped out all humanity.
His wife was so angry that even Qin Xianglian was sold to the Chen family by him.
And this is also the reason why Chen Mo and Qin Xianglian rarely come back.
If he didn't have an underage sister, he would have cut off all contact with Qin Sandao long ago.
At this moment, when he heard about the cattle sale, Chen Mo finally understood. No wonder there was no cattle cart at the door. It turned out that they were exported by rotten gamblers.
"Dad, tell me, who did you sell the cow to?" At this time, Qin Xianglian's voice sounded in the yard.
"Does it have anything to do with who you sell it to?" Qin Sandao acted like a rogue, "Besides, it's just an old cow and a broken car. What's there to feel bad about?"
"Is this something distressing?" Qin Xianglian argued, "The oxcart was left behind by my parents-in-law before they died. How do you want me to explain it to the officials when I go back?"
"Excuse me." Qin Sandao cursed and said, "Ask your conscience, has that bastard shown any filial piety since he got married?"
"Why not?" Qin Xianglian had endured it for many years, and now she finally broke out, "If the officials hadn't helped the family from time to time, you would have starved to death long ago."
"You're right, I'm almost starving to death. What's wrong with selling the cow?" Qin Sandao started to make trouble.
"you……"
Qin Xianglian's delicate body trembled with anger, and she knew it was reasonable at this time but couldn't explain it clearly, so she picked up her sister Xiangqiao and started to walk out.
"We can't stay in this family any longer. Qiao'er should go with your sister, otherwise he will sell you sooner or later."
"Qiao'er listen to your sister."
Qin Xiangqiao is not yet fourteen years old, and her little face that has not fully grown out is very handsome, but due to long-term malnutrition, she looks extremely fragile.
"Let's go, where are we going?" Qin Sandao stopped him sideways and said fiercely, "I won't hide it now. Qiao'er has been betrothed to Butcher Zhang by me, and he will come to get her soon.
"
"Qin Sandao, are you still a human?" Qin Xianglian was so angry that her lips were trembling when she spoke, "Qiao'er is only thirteen years old, thirteen years old."
"What's wrong with being thirteen? As long as you can have children after marriage." Qin Sandao said with a sneer, "This girl has had her menstruation a few days ago and is ready to get married and become a mother."
"Qin Sandao, you are not a human, you are just a beast." Qin Xianglian protected Qiaoer and planned to run out.
"If you dare to mess around again, I will be Qin Sidao from now on. I will chop off one of your fingers first." Qin Sandao became furious and grabbed the hatchet at the door in his hand.
"Sister, let's go." Qiao'er broke away from Qin Xianglian's hand and was so sensible that it made people feel distressed. "You know who he is. If he doesn't leave, he will even dare to attack you."
"You are right. If you dare to have any good intentions for me again, I will ask Butcher Zhang to take you away too." Qin Sandao has already disowned his relatives.
"Qiao'er, I..."
Qin Xianglian knew in her heart that Qin Sandao could really do it with his bad virtue, so she could only give in temporarily and quickly went to the county town to find Chen Mo for help.
"Go away. If you don't go away, I'll be really rude." Qin Sandao raised the hatchet in his hand.
"If you're rude, then I'll be even more rude."
At this moment, Chen Mo walked in from outside the door.
"Shu Lang, doesn't he want to change his name to Qin Sida? Go and make it happen."
"Official..."
Seeing Chen Mo, Qin Xianglian burst into tears and rushed towards him with staggering steps.
