Chapter 277 Steward Tian is very polite!
"How many exactly do you need?"
"Hmm... let me think... three or four would be fine!"
Cai invited the group to rest at a nearby tea stall. "You all sit here first. I'll go ask around. A new batch of goods arrived yesterday. Let's see if we can get a few second-grade ones, and I'll also find you some with a scholarly air!"
Yang Jianwu cupped his hands in thanks, "Thank you for your trouble, Chief Cai. We brothers will wait here!"
Cai Tou left happily. Today's trip was really worth it. Not only did he get a referral fee, but he also got a commission! And it was the commission from three or four vegetable vendors!
Since the outbreak of the epidemic in Guning City, he has rarely been able to make a fortune. Today, he must work hard to make as much as he can!
Yang Jianwu took a couple of sips of coarse tea and looked at Mo Ye's stiff face, even his limbs seemed like wood... He said helplessly, "Brother Ye, relax a bit and say a few words now and then. It's all just me performing, how boring."
Mo Ye picked up his teacup and took a small sip. "I'm sorry, Xiao Wu'er, I've fought in wars and seen decapitations and limbs, even scenes of abdomens being cut open and intestines spilling out... But those were soldiers! These people being dismembered today are unarmed civilians, it's really uncomfortable..."
"That's normal, that's normal. Anyone would feel uncomfortable in that situation!"
"Um...then why aren't you feeling unwell?"
"me?"
Yang Jianwu didn't know how to explain to Mo Ye that when she was studying medicine in the system, she was forced to take anatomy exams, and at that time she didn't know how many simulated prostheses she had personally dissected...
The prosthetic is so realistic that the skin and flesh feel just like human tissue, and even the tiny blood vessels and hairs are there!
"Perhaps it's because I'm a doctor, I'm more accustomed to bloody scenes! After all, swords and blades are merciless, and I often see such scenes up close when bandaging people... Although you've been on the battlefield, you've only seen it from a distance... There's still a difference between that and being up close..."
Mo Ye had some doubts, but couldn't figure out what was wrong, and was ultimately fooled.
"Is that really so? Then I'm so grateful you came this time. If I had faced this alone, I probably wouldn't have been able to even finish my sentence..."
Yang Jianwu chuckled dryly. If Mo Ye knew that she had dissected so many artificial prostheses, he probably wouldn't dare to stay with her!
Mo Ye swallowed another sip of tea to calm his nerves. "What do we do next?"
"Let's see if Hongfeng can find the hiding place. I've already sent Xiaobai to pick up Luo Li. He'll gather people from the northern border to wipe out the village! Punishing evil and promoting good is what I love to do most!"
"Little Wu'er, the guards here are quite strict! There are more than twenty guards just near the gate, and the inside of the village is their territory! How many men can you mobilize here?"
Yang Jianwu shook her head, "How would I know? The subordinates were all assigned by Luo Li. I only need to manage the few leaders!"
Mo Ye understood Yang Jianwu's meaning, but he was still very worried. "Little Wu'er, you must plan this carefully! Your skills are good, but even the best can't defeat a large number of people..."
There are examples of people winning on the battlefield by using human shields. No matter how skilled a person is, if they are surrounded by a large number of enemies, they will eventually get tired and collapse even if they keep fighting.
"Relax, relax! Even if Luo Li can't deal with everyone, as long as I can safely rescue the people they've imprisoned, I can raze the village to the ground in an instant!"
Mo Ye still felt lingering fear when he thought about the last time the Gu field was blown up. The scene of the explosion was no joke, so he believed Yang Jianwu's words without a doubt.
"Okay, I'll do whatever you say!"
"Hehe~ Come on, let's drink to the victory that's just around the corner!"
Yang Jianwu picked up her teacup, clinked it against Mo Ye's teacup with a loud "bang," and then drank it all in one gulp.
Cai Tou returned with his men. He was a burly man who looked like he was in charge. Behind him were four people who were tied up, three men and one woman.
"Are they the ones who want to buy meat?"
Cai bowed and scraped, smiling obsequiously, "Yes, Steward Tian, this young master's family is holding a New Year's banquet. If you buy pre-cut meat, it will spoil by the time it gets there. Live vegetables can be cut and eaten as needed, and they'll be fresh!"
Cai Tou then introduced the burly man to Yang Jianwu, "This is the manager of our village, Manager Tian Zhongtian!"
Yang Jianwu extended her hand in a gesture of respect. When traveling, it's never wrong to be polite!
"Greetings, Steward Tian!"
Seeing that Yang Jianwu was refined and slender with delicate skin, Tian Zhong realized he was a pampered young master and lowered his guard against them somewhat.
Looking at Mo Ye again, his physique suggested he was a martial artist, but his sallow complexion indicated he was unwell, likely due to it being his first time at the market. He cursed inwardly, "Just as I thought, a good-for-nothing raised by a rich family, all looks and no substance!"
I heard that one of his subordinates followed along, but couldn't stand the bloodshed in the market and ran over and vomited...
Tian Zhong lowered his guard and smiled as he introduced the vegetable vendor behind him to the two men.
"Gentlemen, the market is tight lately, and there aren't many second-grade goods. These are new arrivals from yesterday. If you can accept the price, please take them. These three behind are third-grade goods, selected according to your requirements. Are you satisfied with them?"
