Chapter 12: Robbed

  "What's impossible?" The woman behind him asked back, looking at Xu Mao's drastically changed expression.

  Xu Mao thought for a moment and then shook his head: "How can a 16-year-old fool convince everyone?"

  "You came to the mainland, Zhang Dongping went to Treasure Island, leaving behind an old good man Lu Kai Liang" The woman said softly to Xu Mao.

  Xu Mao suddenly sat up straight: "When did Zhang Dongping go to Treasure Island?"

  The woman smiled and said, "News just came from the US!" After finishing speaking, she handed a piece of paper to Xu Mao: "If I'm not mistaken, Zhang Dongping will call you tonight to make amends."

  "Zhang Dongping's five tigers and seven cubs, now only Zhao Sheng and Li Dingguo are left?! The old man has gone senile!" The paper slipped from his hand to the ground, Xu Mao's face was ashen: "Yaoqing! It's all over!".

  "Zhang Dongping has lost his power, and the handle is back in the hands of the old thing! Now the party with the greatest power is you, as long as you lower your head, isn't 16 years old very young?"

  Xu Mao soon tasted Chen Jin's flavor, it was really a thousand kinds of bitterness and hardship.

  "There are three options now! The first is to honestly admit defeat, the second is to make a desperate struggle, and the third is to leave the gang and develop independently in the country! Among them, the first and third are similar, with little difference." The woman said to Xu Mao.

  Ding dong! As soon as the woman finished speaking, the phone on the table rang. Xu Mao answered the phone and stood up from his chair, staring out the window with a distracted expression, his index finger lightly tapping his pants. Five or six minutes later, Xu Mao turned around to face the woman with a resolute expression and said: "Let everyone come back! Once we're packed, we'll head back to America!"

  The woman's mouth corners revealed a smile: "This is the man I've been looking for!"

  Jin Hu and Wang Jun didn't know about this, the two were still digging in the forest with a bitter smile! They had no idea that they could now walk out freely, and others didn't even have time to pay attention to themselves.

  About half a month later, two people who looked like beggars appeared in a small town in Antian Province. The two had suffered a lot during this period of time, and even when they went out to buy things, they were very careful.

  Two people stood in front of the counter, Wang Jun said to the old lady who was eating melon seeds and watching TV in the small hotel: "Boss!"

  "Here! Come back a few times today!" The boss's wife tossed a one-yuan coin on the counter, her face turned back to the TV, and the cackling laughter filled Jinhu and his companion's ears like a mother hen.

  "Stay in the store!" He directly slapped two tickets on the counter.

  As soon as she saw the money, the landlady stood up: "Oh! How did it become like this?".

  "We two are donkey friends, entered the mountain and got lost, turned around for over ten days before coming out!"

  "Alright!" The landlady gave me a knowing look, took out a book and started registering the two of them. After taking a casual glance at their ID cards, she led the two people to their room.

  After entering the house, Jin Hu took out another 200 yuan: "Look at our current state, would you please buy some clothes for us to change into? A size of 1.75 meters is fine, and you can keep the rest. Just get some ordinary clothes."

  "Alright! Alright!" The landlady smiled and took the money, turning around and walking out the door.

  Jin Hu closed the door and lay down on the bed, stretching his waist: "I've never realized that lying in bed is so comfortable."

  "Tiger! Where are you planning to go next? Jiang Lin won't be able to return for the time being." Wang Jun also lying on the bed asked Jin Hu.

  Jin Hu thought for a moment: "I'm going to make a phone call home first, and then... go take a look in the middle of the Pacific Ocean." He had to go see it; if he didn't, Jin Hu's heart would feel uncomfortable.

  Wang Jun looked at Jin Hu in surprise: "What's good about going there? It's all just water."

  "I just want to go and take a look, but I don't know if the procedures for going abroad are complicated or not," Jin Hu thought aloud.

  "Haha!" Wang Jun laughed: "You still want to do the procedures for going abroad? This thing has to be done at the place of household registration, you go there, and it's just self-inflicted, when the time comes, I'll consider how to collect your corpse".

  Jin Hu was taken aback: "So troublesome?"

  Wang Jun thought for a moment: "I actually have a way, I had a comrade-in-arms before, now he's doing smuggling, you can follow his boat, take a look and then coincidentally arrive in the US! When the time comes, hug an American girl and remember my idea!"

  "I don't even understand bird language! What's the point of going to America? Can't just say hello and then 'fuck off' when meeting someone!" Jin Hu thought for a moment before laughing and saying.

  Wang Jun smiled and said: "You're the one who went to America, aren't you? What else can you do besides this? I heard that it's open over there in America, and once you get there, you'll be like a fish in water."

  "What are you going to do now that we have some money?" Jin Hu asked, leaning on his elbow and looking at Wang Jun with a tilted body. The two indeed had some money, with 1.7 million yuan each in the bag.

  Wang Jun put his hand behind his head: "If you want to go to the Pacific Ocean, I'll go with you by land and sea. On the way, we can take care of each other. After all, we have to pass through others' territories. Then I'll return home and give the money to my village to build a road and a primary school."

  "Generous enough!" Jin Hu gave Wang Jun a thumbs up: "I'll also contribute some, let's make it a total of 2 million."

  "Thanks first!" Wang Jun made a fist with both hands towards Jin Hu "You are from Jiangbian Province, where can you go if you are poor? We are different, don't look at this over 10 million, we can do a lot of things. Next, I plan to follow my comrades to run the sea, one person has nothing to worry about and can do whatever! Wait for the wind to pass, and then go with others to settle accounts!"

  Jin Hu said: "Don't go see the girl you've been secretly in love with?" Along the way, the two of them chatted, saying whatever came to mind, and there were no more secrets between them.

  Wang Jun smiled and said: "You think I'm still so young, others have long been married, maybe the kids are already in elementary school."

  The two of them chatted for a while, when the sound of knocking on the door came from the entrance. The door opened and the boss's wife appeared at the doorway with a smile. Jin Hu took over the clothes, watching as the boss's wife left, then closed the room door.

  Two people each have a pair of jeans, a shirt and underwear, the boss thought it was quite thoughtful.

  After taking turns bathing, Jin Hu felt that his whole body had never been so comfortable before, and he fell asleep as soon as he lay down on the bed.

  The triangular-headed one-eyed dragon in the dream came to report again, just telling himself to hurry back and so on. Jin Hu had already gotten used to it, and after listening to it once, he was done with it.

  Two people slept until the next day's noon before getting up, went to the bank in town to transfer some money back, and then made a phone call back home to ask if anyone had come by. Hearing that nothing was going on at the other end of the phone, Jinhu was confused. He put down the phone and said to Wang Jun: "No one has been to my hometown, and it seems like no one has asked about my family's situation!"

  "This is a bit strange, but it's better to be careful" Wang Jun thought for a moment and said to Jin Hu "Let's go eat first, then discuss how to get to Lu Hai". After finishing speaking, he turned around and walked out of the small phone booth.

  Two people sat in a small restaurant, ordered three dishes and two bottles of beer. While drinking, they thought about how to escape from the people chasing them. After finishing the meal, neither of them came up with a good idea.

  After settling the bill and walking out of the restaurant, I ran into several people riding motorcycles, with some having women and children on the back seats. They spoke in a foreign accent to the boss inside the restaurant, saying: "Give us a few bowls of pork rib noodles, hurry up!"

  Wang Jun looked at the few people who went in and said to Jin Hu, "Alright, let's go back and discuss it." After finishing speaking, he quickly walked towards the hotel. Jin Hu heard that there was a solution and followed him.

  Once back in the room, Wang Jun took out the map left by Chen Jin and spread it on the bed, pointing and saying: "It's four or five days' journey from here to Lu Hai by car. We can take a motorcycle and blend in with the migrant workers. They wear helmets and are not easily recognizable!" After finishing speaking, he looked at Jin Hu.

  Jin Hu nodded as soon as he heard it, this method is feasible, and Xu Mao would never think of this.

  "Now we need to buy two motorcycles, preferably second-hand ones. For safety reasons, it's best if we bring along two women and pretend they're our wives!" Wang Jun continued to explain to Jin Hu.

  He brought two women, Jin Hu listened and was taken aback: "How inconvenient! And if something happens, it's also a hassle to bring two women along! Besides, where can we find two women in such a short time? Are we going to look for prostitutes again? Even if we do, they have to be willing to run so far with us!" Thinking of this, Jin Hu felt a bit depressed, why did he keep running into this kind of woman during this period.

  "How dangerous can it be?" Wang Jun patted the bedside with his hand: "With this, are we still afraid of not finding a willing woman? This matter is left to me, let's go buy a car in the afternoon and prepare to leave tomorrow."

  They made a decision and set off immediately, asking around for the place that sells motorcycles in town. After arriving at the location, they spent over 6,000 yuan to buy two nearly new Haojue motorcycles and rode them back home.

  Find a woman to travel with, of course, first rely on the introduction of the hotel owner. After looking back and forth at five or six groups of women, not one was willing to follow the two to Lu Hai. One of them, with a big mouth, even said to Jin Hu: "What if you sell me?"

  Jin Hu and Wang Jun almost hit their heads against the wall: with your appearance, which blind person would dare to abduct you, others would think it's a waste of their own hands.

  Two more women came out of the room, and the landlady stuck her head in: "You two don't be picky either, the countryside doesn't have good makeup like the big city, you've been holding back for a long time, just find something that will do for now."

  Jin Hu and Wang Jun were stunned again, watching as the boss's wife withdrew her head back outside. The two exchanged a bitter smile.

  Two women walked in, and Wang Jun repeated what he had just said. One of them, who was slightly older, said: "Following you two strong men, 5,000 is too little. We also need to consider the risks. If it's 10,000 per person, we'll follow you on this trip!"

  "Don't worry about this! The two of us will follow the motorcycle team! When we arrive at the border, you can head back directly. For four or five days' work, you want 20,000 yuan? That's too expensive, right? 10,000 yuan is enough for you to earn in five or six months here!" Wang Jun said to the older woman.

  A slightly younger woman was a bit moved and pulled the front woman's clothes, the front woman gently patted away the back woman's hand: "It's this price, if you're not willing then forget it".

  "Alright, come over early tomorrow morning and I'll give you half of the deposit. The rest will be given when we arrive at the destination. Deal?"

  "Give 6,000 tomorrow!" Watching Wang Jun nodding his head, the two women walked out of the house.

  Jintiger lay on the bed and laughed, saying: "Ah! This is being robbed by two prostitutes!"
