and," the big boss replied crisply."Did you find it"The boss shook his head despondently.But his expression changed immediately."We didn't find the second one, but we found this instead.”"Look," the b...He said on the phone, "Hello, is this Lao Zhang from the veterinary station My cow is sick, can you come and have a look The specific condition is that it doesn't eat or drink, digestion is poor, maybe there is a calf in its belly."

"

" Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!

"Alright, I'll take the cow to the vet's office and meet you there. Make sure the scalpel is nice and sharp, I don't want a dull blade to slow us down."

">

He's saying on the phone, "I've shipped it out. It's the top-of-the-line stuff (meaning the highest quality goods), I'm bringing the cow to the vet clinic to meet you (meaning I'm bringing the goods to your location for the transaction). The knife isn't sharp enough (meaning you need to bring more money, otherwise I won't let you see anything)."

Qin Xingping made this call not to protect us. We all know what he means by "us." He's protecting the other side, afraid that someone nearby the person answering the phone might overhear something they shouldn't.

Experienced people do things this way, carefully and thoroughly. Qin Xiping is also a cunning veteran.

However, he didn't know about the Alashán Blood Opal thing. The only ones who knew it was in my bag were us in the gang.

I discussed this with my head in the road, but I still wouldn't dare make a move in Yinchuan.

To be honest, it's because this thing is too eye-catching. After Aza got the blood agate, she was forced to hide in the desert mine for half a year. We definitely don't want that kind of life, so finally we agreed and said, "Let's just keep this thing hidden for now and talk about it after we leave Yinchuan territory."

Qin Xingping got in touch with people, and naturally, he also got in touch with the heads of the operation. Those who deal in black goods don't care about order or seniority; they just look at who offers the highest price. The buyers weren't from Yinchuan, they came from out of town naturally needing some time.

While we were waiting for the buyer, we three - me, Xiaoxuan, and Douzi - went shopping together.

Aji's old power generator keeps shutting down, and he wants a new one to charge his phone. The conditions in Huerte are harsh, so I thought about buying him a good one, a brand-name one.

After much deliberation, I ended up buying a used imported Daewoo brand diesel generator for over three thousand.

And there was the doll that Uncle Fu had asked for his daughter. I really don't understand how to tell good from bad when it comes to these things, but Xiao Xuan does. She used to love collecting them too, so I just let her choose. Whatever she picks, I'll pay for it.

At that time, there was only one high-end toy store in Yinchuan. It was located behind Lanshan Theater, next to Shenyang East Road.

Xiaoxuan picked out two Barbie dolls and two princess dolls in the store. Their legs and arms can move, and they come with two sets of clothes and a wig each. The boss saw that we bought so many and gave us a bunch of combs and little clothes. The comb for styling the Barbie doll's hair is so big, it's only half a fingertip wide.

When I was paying, I was shocked. It cost over two thousand yuan for four toys, which means each one cost over five hundred yuan! I thought four toys would only cost fifty yuan at most.

Dòu zhá zǐ said with a pained expression, “This is too expensive, isn’t it At the small stalls near the market entrance, they only cost three yuan each. I think this one is pretty much the same.

"""

Xiaoxuan retorted, "You two don't understand anything! How can three dollars compare to these Besides the plastic smelling bad, kids will break them after playing with them for a few days. Mine are all brand-name, imported genuine Barbie products."

"Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"What brand, I think it's just cheating money, especially cheating people like you," the sprout said unconvinced.

" Let me know if you'd like me to translate any other text!

"Alright, stop arguing. Uncle Hu has done us such a huge favor, sending this isn't much at all."

"

After we paid and left the toy store, the three of us took a taxi back to the hotel.

"Why are you always looking in the rearview mirror" Xiaoxuan asked me after we'd been driving for a while.

"It's nothing, I just had blurry vision for a second. I've been feeling paranoid lately."

">

After saying that, I glanced in the rearview mirror again.

After getting on the bus from the toy store, I noticed that a motorcyclist in the rearview mirror was following us. He had been tailing us for three traffic lights already, this was the fourth one.

The taxi we were in stopped at a red light, and the 125 motorcycle behind us also stopped at the red light.

The key is that the motorcyclist was wearing a helmet, so you couldn't see what they looked like.

When the red light turned green, the taxi started and drove away.

I shook my head, thinking I was probably overthinking it.saster victims. However, in the end, it was still like a drop in the bucket.This led to the famous Grain Storage Incident at Gray and Yellow later on.In the winter of 1942, on the seventeenth day of t...
