Chapter 454 Listen to the corner
"Maybe..." As these light words gradually dissipated in the air, the speaker's figure gradually disappeared into the endless darkness.
At this moment, Xu Changping's upper body was leaning weakly against the cold wall, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, outlining a slightly sarcastic smile.
Xu Changping never imagined that he had come here on a whim and would run into the "witness" by coincidence.
I don’t know if the woman who spoke first is in cahoots with these people.
What surprised him even more was the reaction of this "witness".
However, after calming down and thinking about it, Xu Changping felt relieved and understood the other party's mentality at the time.
After all, such a calculating method with so many loopholes is probably nothing to Mr. Chen.
You know, since ancient times, anyone who can be respectfully called "old" after his surname is all a big boss who can call the shots in his respective fields.
They were able to stand out from the vast industry of dazzling stars and talented people and climb to the top step by step. How could they not have encountered all kinds of monsters and demons in the process?
Thinking of this, a hint of fierceness flashed in Xu Changping's eyes again.
The person who carefully planned the entire operation behind the scenes, if he did not underestimate the strength and wisdom of Mr. Chen, must have held key chips in his hands that were enough to threaten or even control the other party!
After thinking of this possibility, Xu Changping's heart couldn't help but tighten. He carefully stuck his head out and looked in the direction of the door that the two people had just come out of.
In the faint moonlight, he saw the sign hanging next to the door - No. 35 Yunxi Road.
After seeing the house number clearly, he leaned back against the wall and waited quietly for the two people to return.
A few minutes later, Xu Changping heard two footsteps, one light and one heavy. He could even hear the woman muttering faintly, "There was a loud noise in the yard just now. How can you say you didn't hear it?"
Then, the man called Mr. Chen scolded: "When you are out, it is better to have less trouble than more! Why do you care about the noise in the yard? Don't get involved in things that have nothing to do with you!"
“I don’t…” The woman seemed to want to argue, but her voice gradually disappeared in the night wind with the creaking sound of the door opening.
Xu Changping stood there for a long time. After making sure that no one was moving around, he lightened his footsteps and slowly approached the wall of the abandoned compound silently like a ghost.
As soon as he approached the wall, Xu Changping quickly stuck to the wall like a nimble cheetah.
He closed his eyes slightly, concentrated his attention, and prepared to use his extraordinary hearing to listen to what was going on inside.
Unexpectedly, he accidentally captured a conversation. Listening to the conversation between the two people, Xu Changping paused his actions.
Someone lowered his voice and said, "Third brother, this batch of goods is really too much! I think we should just steal it!"
Another person immediately responded in a low voice: "Don't be silly! The boss has been keeping a close eye on this batch of goods. Didn't you see that the old guy came over to take charge?"
The man seemed unwilling to give up, and he muttered and complained: "Damn it, I worked so hard to get these things, but in the end I have to give them away. I feel so depressed just thinking about it!"
At this time, another more calm voice sounded: "Okay, just do your job honestly! The old man said that if this job goes smoothly without any mistakes, we will all be given a generous bonus after it is finished."
However, the person who spoke first obviously did not buy into this promise. He snorted with disdain and said, "How can that old dog be so kind? Over the years, apart from the pitiful basic salary every month, he has only used our leverage to threaten us! When has he ever actually delivered any benefits?"
Then, someone else interrupted and said, "But speaking of it, this batch of goods may really have the possibility of paying out the bonus as agreed. After all, even some of the old man's own things are mixed in with this batch of goods and are going to be shipped back together."
After hearing this, someone asked curiously, "What's going on? Could it be that this old dog suddenly felt guilty and planned to hand over all the stuff he got from corruption and saving money?"
The people around him couldn't help but laugh and cursed, "Bullshit! He's not that kind! He got these things secretly, and they were not written in the official manifest at all.
In my opinion, he has probably already made arrangements with the destination in advance, and as soon as this batch of goods lands, someone will quietly take his things away without anyone noticing! "
"That's not right! If this old dog takes all the things away, can he still fulfill his promise to give us bonuses?" A few people were chatting animatedly when suddenly a strange voice interrupted.
"Knapper, why don't you just focus on your job? What are you doing here?" The man who spoke first growled angrily.
After all, they didn't talk about anything good just now. If this guy reports it to Lao Gou, he will forget about the bonus.
"Brother Xu, I didn't mean to eavesdrop on your conversation. I just came here to clear the water and overheard it accidentally. I'm not Lao Gou's confidant, so I definitely won't tell him about it."
The man named Lao Guai hurriedly explained, otherwise given the current situation, it would be a question whether he could get out of here safely.
Xu Changping was listening to the conversation of several people inside. When he heard someone calling "Brother Xu", he was stunned for a moment. It turned out that there was a relative of his here.
Immediately, Xu Changping's face darkened again. Could this be the identity of the little boss that was framed against him in the letter?
These bastards are really cautious! It's not a random accusation, there really is a Big Brother Xu.
Just as he was thinking about it, the man named Brother Xu said, "Okay, stop looking at Lao Guai like that." Then Xu Changping heard him say, "Lao Guai, you just said that Lao Gou will not give bonuses. What's the situation? Tell me in detail."
Soon, the man called Guaizi spoke up and analyzed, "Brother Xu, do you think that after Lao Gou transports all his treasures back to their Sakura Country, he will return to Sijiu City?"
"It doesn't matter whether he comes back or not. We have to give the bonuses to the brothers after finishing the work tonight." said one of the people who spoke earlier.
Lao Guai's gloomy voice sounded: "What if he doesn't pay, saying that he doesn't have the money with him at the moment, and he has to deliver it to everyone later?"
