Chapter 114 Game
Tang Haoran's eyelids twitched. This little brat doesn't even know how to knock on a door. Now he's in trouble, and they've got something on him!
After thinking for a moment, he said seriously, "Captain Zuo, we made a mistake in this matter, and I sincerely apologize to you. As for 2 tons of grain, that's too exaggerated. We don't have that much grain."
Zuo You raised an eyebrow. "You won't admit it, huh?"
Tang Haoran was having a bit of a headache. He was good at doing things, but he was really not good at talking.
“Yes, we are willing to take responsibility. As for the ton, we can only give you one ton of grain at most.”
"Two tons, not a single grain less."
Tang Haoran rubbed his temples, hesitated for a moment, and decided that two tons of grain was neither too much nor too little, but just within their acceptable range.
Moreover, we'll have to trouble her to save people.
“I can give you two tons, but you have to come north with us.”
Zuo You scoffed, "One thing is one thing, but Captain Tang is quite good at assigning me tasks."
Tang Haoran's eyes flashed, and he felt that Zuo You was extremely difficult to deal with.
Jian Hong leaned closer and whispered in his ear, "Captain, this amount is fine. It's nothing to us. The important thing is to save people first."
Tang Haoran found this stingy vice-captain a bit strange. Could it be that he saw something he shouldn't have when he teleported into the house, which is why he was so generous in trying to settle things peacefully?
They have plenty of food, but they can't just throw it all away.
Zuo You waited a while, but received no response. She raised her voice, somewhat annoyed, "Are you going to give it to me or not?"
As she spoke, a white horizontal knife suddenly appeared in her hand, the blade of which looked remarkably like mutton fat jade.
Tang Haoran's gaze inadvertently swept over the white horizontal sword in Zuo You's hand. He didn't show it on his face, but he was very puzzled in his heart.
He remembered that the knife wasn't this white this morning, so how did it change color?
Seeing that Tang Haoran seemed lost in thought, Jian Hong kicked him.
"Captain, Professor Li is still waiting for treatment."
"give her."
Tang Haoran's tone was somewhat resentful. Zuo You was domineering and irritable. Whoever married her would probably be subjected to domestic violence.
The thought of those two tons of grain made his heart ache.
Having received instructions from his captain, Jian Hong ignored Tang Haoran's furrowed brows and a smile appeared on his lips.
Jian Hong took out 80 bags of rice, each weighing 50 jin, from his spatial storage and placed them on the ground, indicating that Zuo You could take them away.
Zuo You patted Lin Ling on the shoulder and gestured with her chin toward the rice on the ground.
Lin Ling obediently drew the dagger from her waist, picked through several bags of rice, checked them, found no problems, and nodded to Zuo You.
With a wave of her hand, 2 tons of rice entered her space.
Seeing that she had taken the rice, Tang Haoran asked with a stern expression, "Captain Zuo, are you able to treat Professor Li now?"
"Don't worry, Captain Jian just drove and made my sister throw up. Half a ton of grain isn't too much to ask, is it?"
Jian Hong and Tang Haoran: "......" So, their involvement is also related to him throwing up in the car?
Jian Hong awkwardly touched the Lei Feng hat on his head and forced a smile. "Captain Zuo, wasn't that just an emergency rescue?"
“My sister rarely gets a full meal, and because of you, she threw up. She has suffered a lot both physically and mentally. If you don’t give her food, our dog won’t be happy. If she’s unhappy, I can’t control her.”
"Woof—" Erdan responded in kind, with a smug expression on his face.
Jian Hong wanted to speak, but when he opened and closed his mouth, he was speechless. He swallowed and nodded in agreement.
We've already given you two tons, so what's another half ton?
Tang Haoran took a deep breath, trying to suppress the anger in his heart, and said without changing his expression, "What else do you need to compensate? Tell me clearly all at once."
Zuo You slightly raised her eyelids and gave a dismissive glance.
“I braved the heavy snow and rushed over to help you rescue people without even having time to put on my clothes. You should take responsibility for the grievances I suffered.”
The consultation fee is one ton of grain.
They were just yelling that they would kill my dog and demand two tons of grain in compensation.
That little white flower stirred up trouble and upset my sister. Let's make it less, one ton will do.
"Rescue Li Derun, three tons of grain."
"A total of 7.5 tons of grain. Please compensate me at the price. If you don't want to compensate me, that's fine too. I'll take the three people who just cursed my dog. I'll give you a discount of one ton each."
Tang Haoran was stunned. What happened? Why did they suddenly ask him for 7.5 tons of grain?
Tang Haoran was somewhat annoyed. He had always admired Zuo You's abilities and wanted to recruit her into the military.
Who would have thought that this woman was not only greedy, demanding exorbitant prices, and taking advantage of others' misfortunes, but also extremely stingy.
Jian Hong's space contains a lot of food; the Azure Dragon Team emptied the grain depot in W City before.
W City is not a fourth-tier city like T City; W City is a proper second-tier city with a population of over 2000 million.
Moreover, the grain depot in W City, containing over 300 tons of finished grain, was all stored in Jian Hong's space.
But this grain is the common property of their team, how can this woman extort it from them like this!
Tang Haoran couldn't believe that he had actually been blackmailed by a woman!
He glanced at Li Derun on the bed; his face was ashen, and his breathing was growing weaker and weaker.
He's been caught off guard by Zuo You.
The room was quiet, and Zuo You didn't make a sound to disturb them, but kept her eyes on Li Derun out of the corner of her eye.
This is a psychological battle. Zuo You admits that he is despicable and shameless, using Li Derun's life to gamble with Tang Haoran.
So what? The dog is her Achilles' heel; no one but herself can bully her.
The fact that Li Derun's few incompetent, barking relatives wanted to eat dog meat is blatantly obvious.
Then don't blame Zuo You for being malicious.
Moreover, this wasn't the first time Tang Haoran had to clean up Li Derun's messes.
Tang Haoran hesitated. 7.5 tons of grain, plus the 2 tons of grain that had just been taken, that's a total of 9.5 tons!
His heart ached at the thought of so much grain.
Tang Haoran didn't want to clash with Zuo You. Putting everything else aside, Professor Li hadn't been saved yet, and the deal on the superpowered weapon hadn't been made.
Moreover, whether it was Li Gaoyang's matter in the morning or Zhang Yupeng and Zhang Yuan's matter in the evening, in the end, it was those same people who started it.
Their Azure Dragon team had absolutely no grudge against Zuo You, and the food they were being extorted from was entirely to pay for Professor Li's expenses.
Tang Haoran had no doubt that if it weren't for his status, these people wouldn't have seen the sun tomorrow.
"Hurry, he's about to die."
Zuo You, who had been keeping a close eye on Li Derun, suddenly stood up and urged him on.
Tang Haoran looked at Li Derun on the bed, his breathing suddenly became rapid, and his voice was somewhat panicked. He immediately expressed his opinion.
"Here, Jian Hong, give it to her right away."
"Erdan, save him!"
The dog nodded, gathering all its supernatural powers into its mouth, opened its mouth wide, and spat out a healing ball at Li Derun. A pale golden light instantly enveloped Li Derun's entire body.
