Seeing the caravan returning, the people in Beiguan Village naturally felt that something was wrong and quickly called Song He over. As a result, they started questioning him before Song He could even speak.
"Shopkeeper Song, it's boring for you to do this."
Song He was confused, "I don't understand what you mean by this. You loaded the car yourself after inspection, so if there is a problem now, you shouldn't come to us."
After all, they still had some concerns about Song He's identity, so their attitude was not too bad at the moment.
"Shopkeeper Song, we are not talking about the problem of goods, but the problem of quantity. As soon as all our caravans left Chongyun Town, we found that our goods were one or two cars short. If you don't want to give us so much, or it is not enough.
You can say it directly, or you can say that you want to increase the price, but is it too unkind for you to do this? We are all businessmen and we are doing long-term business."
This time Song He understood, "You mean I sent people to rob your goods on the way?"
That's what they meant, but no one spoke at this moment, they all just looked at him silently.
Song He also realized that something was wrong, "How many trucks are missing in total?"
"Sixty cars!"
As soon as this number came out, Song He was also shocked.
You must know that even the largest merchant here only took fifteen carloads of goods this time, and sixty carloads were lost in one go. This is a lot of money.
Naturally, he could understand their anger.
"Don't be angry now. We will investigate this matter. We have wasted a lot of time today. You can stay in Beiguan Village now. We will bear the expenses. You will take the goods back tomorrow. After delivering the goods, you all will come over. I will
I will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation.”
After all, these goods need to be sold in a hurry, and they can't waste too much time here.
After Song He said this, they felt more comfortable, and when he said he would let them stay in Beiguan Village, their doubts became much less.
After all, if they really did this, they wouldn't dare let them live in Beiguan Village at this time.
Under Song He's arrangement, these people all stayed in the inn. The inn had already made arrangements, and all the fees were charged to Song He's account.
The next step is to start investigating the matter.
"Such a thing has never happened before, so why did it suddenly happen this time?" Cong Hai was also quite puzzled. It was not just once or twice that they had received goods like this, and nothing had happened before.
When Song He said this, he actually already had suspicions in his heart.
"Last night, three merchants came to me with money and asked me to give them more goods. They also said some words that I didn't like to hear, so I immediately canceled their qualifications. This matter is happening again at this stage.
It happened in my mouth, I think it has a lot to do with them."
Cong Hai was originally the one who carried out secret missions, but now Song He said this and he felt enlightened.
"Give me the information on those three people, and I'll have someone investigate. Just follow their area and you'll get the results soon."
As for those three people, they really didn't know what to do now. They did have sixty carts of goods on hand. Each of them took twenty carts back, which was basically double the amount of goods they had taken before.
What's more important is that these goods don't cost money at all. They can keep all the money that the original owner gave them to buy the goods for themselves. Even the money that the original owner gave them to bribe Song He can line their own pockets.
After returning, they have completed the tasks assigned by their boss, and their boss will also give them some rewards.
But why didn't they think of those stupid people, so why did they turn around and go back to find trouble for Song He?
Where did they get the courage to go to Song He!!!
"What should we do now? If Shopkeeper Song and the others investigate this matter, then we will 100% be found out and we will be in big trouble."
"It's all your fault for having such a bad idea. I just said this won't work!"
"What's the use of saying all this now? Didn't you also agree to it at the time? Don't forget that you also paid part of the money to find someone. Don't think that if something happens now, you will be forgiven."
"When will I get rid of myself?"
"Isn't that what you just said?"
"you……"
"Shut up, everyone! If something goes wrong, just find a way to solve it. What's the use of making strange noises!"
There was still a slightly more sober person here, and he immediately got angry when he heard the two of them arguing.
"Now those things are all in the ruined temple. What we can do now is to get rid of those things first. After all, it is important to save our lives and earn money later."
Although this is not a small amount of money, compared to the current situation, he can still give it up.
Otherwise, if you really continue to take the goods with you, you will be discovered soon.
But he is willing to let it go, but some people are reluctant to let it go.
"You just lost so much money?"
"Then what else? When Shopkeeper Song investigates, do you think it's really just Shopkeeper Song who's investigating? Or do you think the princess didn't leave anyone here for him? Such a big village is full of their workshops, and there are no people.
Can you hold on? If you don’t lose your money now, you will lose your life next!”
"Yes, I agree, it's more important to save your life first!"
Two people reached a consensus, but there was still one person who couldn't bear to just throw away these goods, even after thinking about it, he couldn't bear to part with them.
The sky outside gradually became dark, and he quietly went out alone.
The other two people in the darkness had been paying attention to his situation. As soon as they saw him going out, they both sat up and made a gesture, and then they went separate ways.
The poor man was killed by these two men before he could get far.
"Deal with him first, and then get out of here quickly."
"We should think about ways to save these goods. They will definitely check the people and the goods together now. Even if they find us, they can't do anything if we don't have the goods on hand."
"Well, that's it!"
The two men dragged the body to the river not far away and threw it into the river without blinking.
If three people are doing something together, and one person changes his mind, it means that all three of them are very dangerous. How could they allow such a danger to occur under such circumstances?
Looking at the body that was gradually sinking, the two of them turned around and left.
"Hurry up and go back. Don't go see the owner yet. As long as they find out that we have gone back, they should be fine. We can wait until the storm is over before we come to pick up the goods."
