Rebirth of the Forbidden City: The Troublemaker in the Courtyard

Chapter 447: Arrogant

They did not have an intuitive understanding of the various consequences.

But Ning Yuan knew that there were several smuggling routes at that time, and the success rate and even the degree of danger of each route were different.

At this time of year, as there are heavy military presence along the national border, although the coastline is very long, there are actually only three main routes for crossing the port.

The eastern line goes through the Huiyang Mountains in Huizhou, the middle line goes along Dongguan to Bao'an, and as for the western line, it goes south along the east bank of the Pearl River.

Given Ning Yuan and his men’s current position, they naturally have to take the western route.

The success rate of swimming across the western route is the highest, but the mortality rate is also high, at 50%. People are easily carried into the deep sea by ocean currents and eventually die of exhaustion and hunger shock.

The success rate of the central and eastern lines is very low, with only a 10% to 20% chance of winning, because there are many checkpoints and militia patrols along the way.

There are many police dogs along the 40-kilometer mountain road.

During this time of year, many educated youth who went to the countryside nearby were really eager to see the bustling world.

Many young people crossing the harbor were caught with wounds all over their bodies from dog bites, and then imprisoned in the Pingshi Labor Camp in Shaoshan, where they were forced to do manual labor such as quarrying.

However, after being locked up together, these people exchanged experiences in crossing the port, and after being released, they continued to smuggle themselves across the border, with many of them repeating the same route five or six times.

Ning Yuan and his men actually had no other options. Their location meant they could only cross the sea from here.

Moreover, although these people are all authentic northerners, they are all quite good at swimming.

But they usually go into the water in inland rivers or artificial lakes.

To be honest, if you really go to the sea, you will feel a little uneasy.

Since Ning Yuan has made up his mind, he will naturally not allow these reliable members to suffer such an unfortunate fate of dying before they can accomplish their mission.

So, it’s time to visit the uncles and aunts introduced by Uncle Zhang and Uncle Fan.

Let Zheng Liang and the others stay here and prepare more food and drinks.

After finishing the instructions, Ning Yuan didn't even have time to rest and directly took Hu Lianwang and Tian Erliang out of the yard again.

Wu Qiang was sent out to take Ning Yuan and the others to find a nearby supply and marketing cooperative.

If you want to make a phone call, you can only go to the supply and marketing cooperative to find a public phone.

Zheng Liang and his friends have been here for several days and are unfamiliar with the place. If it weren't for the travel permits issued by the Youth League Office, they would have been arrested and questioned.

Furthermore, no matter how these guys try to hide it, they still have a fierce aura about them.

Therefore, no matter how united and xenophobic the villagers in the surrounding area were, they did not really dare to provoke these guys.

During this period, Zheng Liang, Wu Qiang and the others bought almost all their food and drinks in this supply and marketing cooperative, so they were very familiar with this place.

After arriving at the supply and marketing cooperative, Ning Yuan saw the very poor variety of goods on the shelves and really had no desire to buy anything.

He asked directly to the staff of the supply and marketing cooperative.

"Comrade, I need to make a call, please help me connect the line!"

Two employees were standing behind the cabinet of the supply and marketing cooperative, cracking melon seeds and chatting.

Of course, Ning Yuan and the others just saw people chatting at this time. In fact, this position is as comfortable as it can be.

There are very few people coming here to shop on weekdays, so the two of them are just killing time and are very relaxed all day long.

Once the habit is formed, we no longer have the awareness to serve people who are in need.

After Ning Yuan finished asking the question, the two of them glanced at Ning Yuan, and then continued chatting happily among themselves.

You can't blame them for this. If you want to blame someone, blame yourself, Ning Yuan, for coming at the wrong time. You came just when they were chatting enthusiastically and disturbed their interest.

So, neither of these two people paid any attention to Ning Yuan.

This really made Hu Lianwang and Tian Erliang extremely angry.

The salespersons in the department stores in the old city are arrogant enough, but in the end they still have to do their job. Although their service attitude is not very good, they still provide service.

But what kind of character are these two people here! After asking questions, they just glanced at you and then ignored you. Isn't this just completely annoying!

Ning Yuan's face naturally didn't look good. Really, with such a temper, not to mention someone with Ning Yuan's temper, even someone with an ordinary temper would be depressed and angry.

Maybe it’s because they are used to being so arrogant. In this era of seller’s market, salespeople are just so arrogant.

So on weekdays, when the villagers get upset, there is nothing they can do but hold their temper and wait. What else can they do?

Beat someone up, steal something? Don't want the head anymore?

Tian Erliang looked at Ning Yuan's expression and walked straight towards the two men.

"boom!"

A slap hit the table with a loud bang.

Tian Erliang's slap startled the two people who were chatting animatedly.

"What are you doing? Who are you slamming the table at? You scared me!"

One of the tall and thin young men came to his senses and got angry at Tian Erliang who was standing in front of the container.

Tian Erliang is also an old brother who has followed Ning Yuan for a long time. Naturally, he knows Ning Yuan's temper. Even if he is in a foreign land, he can't stand this humiliation, right?

They haven't been subjected to this in the department store in downtown Beijing, which has the most comprehensive supply of goods and is known for having the most arrogant salespeople. How could they do this here?

Fuck it!

Besides, why did he and Hu Lianwang accompany Ning Yuan here together? Wasn’t it for this purpose?

Don't cause trouble, but never get angry!

"What the hell are you two doing? You're at work, and you hear someone come in and make a phone call. Instead of just rushing over to answer it, what the hell are you talking about? Who the hell taught you to serve the people like this?"

Tian Erliang was merciless when he spoke. Just two salesmen, were they worthy of being servile to him? That's nonsense!

When the tall and thin young salesperson heard what Tian Erliang said, his face changed instantly and he opened his mouth to scold the unruly young man in front of him.

But before he could say anything, he was stopped by another short and stocky young man beside him.

The sturdy young man walked up to Tian Erliang, looked at him, and spoke to him in broken Mandarin.

"You guys wanna make a, uh, phone call?"

Tian Erliang frowned, but considering that this sturdy young man had a good attitude, he simply stopped dwelling on what had just happened.

So he nodded towards the sturdy young man.

The young man just shook his head and said to Tian Erliang.

"I can't call anymore. The phone just broke!"

Tian Erliang suddenly looked at the boy. Well, he actually dared to do this!

They were chatting just now and no one touched his phone.

This is the only phone in the nearby village, so it is absolutely impossible for the phone to be broken and not repaired!

That's obvious. If they're unhappy and don't let you use it, what can you do?
