Martial Arts Song

Chapter 359 Sweeping

Chapter 359 Sweeping
On September 25th, the weather was cloudy.

at dusk.

Under the dim street lights of "Yunshan Road", two hand trucks slowly stopped in front of the iron gate of a garden house.

"Is anyone there? Liang's Oil and Grain Store is delivering goods!"

One of the two young men pushing the cart shouted loudly towards the iron gate.

After he finished shouting, a few people came out of the garden house in a moment.

One of them was very tall, but he looked very young when he approached. He looked like a teenager and came to the iron gate. He opened the iron gate for them, raised his hand and pointed to an open space outside the villa, and said, "Just unload it there."

"Okay~"

Two young men responded and then pushed the cart into the garden. They came to the side of the villa and unloaded the bags of rice, flour, oil, salt and other goods from the cart to the location pointed by the other party.

After about ten minutes, the cargo was unloaded.

The two young men were about to ask the buyer to sign to confirm when they saw the tall young man who had walked towards them. He then handed them two ten-dollar bills in each hand and said with a smile, "Thank you for your hard work."

The two were stunned, but then raised their hands to take the money - after all, a twenty-dollar tip was very good for them.

After receiving the money, the two people who had worked hard to unload the goods immediately had smiles on their faces.

One of the young men took out a pen and a list from his clothes and said with a smile, "Thank you, brother. Please ask your head of the family to sign it."

The tall boy smiled slightly when he heard this and said, "I am."

After saying that, he reached out and took the pen and the list.

The two young men were stunned when they heard this.

While they were stunned, the tall boy had quickly signed the form and handed it over.

The young man who had held the pen and the list took them, and looked at them under the light of the street lamp in the garden. He found that the other party's signature was the same as the reservation signature on the list. Only then did he confirm that the other party was really the owner of the house!
Living in such a luxurious house at such a young age...

The two young guys couldn't help but reveal envy in their eyes.

But they also understood that they were from different classes, so they quickly put away their envy and said with a smile: "Boss, please take a look at the goods. If there is no problem, we will leave first."

"I've just checked it, the goods are fine."

The tall boy said with a smile.

After hearing this, the two young men said goodbye and left the garden with the cart.

After the two men left, a man who was about the same age as the tall boy but half a head shorter than him, who had just walked out together, slowly walked over.

Looking at the rice, flour, oil and salt on the ground, the man frowned and asked in confusion: "Brother Bing, how many batches are these today? Why did you buy so much rice and flour? Didn't you say you would use the basement to grow crops for me?"

The family living in this garden house is none other than the Chen family!
And the person who is speaking now is none other than Chen Yang.

As for the tall boy being asked, it was naturally Chen Qing.

Hearing Chen Yang's question, Chen Qing looked at him, then turned around and looked at Chen Zhengzhong and Yang Ying who had followed him out but did not say anything, just watched quietly.

After thinking for a while, Chen Qing said, "You guys go in first. This is almost the last batch. I'll come back and tell you in detail after I move all these things to the basement."

After saying that, he came to the pile of rice and flour, hooked his right foot, and directly picked up the bag of rice that the two young men were struggling to carry and put it on his shoulder.

Even when a bag of rice weighing dozens of kilograms fell on his shoulders, Chen Qing did not move at all.

I saw him hooking his feet continuously, and bags of rice and flour flew up and landed on his shoulders.

In a short while, he had hooked half of the cargo, which had taken the two young men more than ten minutes to unload, onto his shoulders.

Then, he carried the supplies and walked towards the entrance of the basement.

When Chen Yang saw this scene, although it was not the first time he saw it, he still sighed: "If I were still in Qianyang, we wouldn't have to find cows to plow our fields."

Then, he turned and went into the house, and shouted to Chen Zhengzhong and Yang Ying beside him: "Dad, Mom, let's go in. Brother Bing will come and tell us the reason after he finishes this job."

Chen Zhengzhong and Yang Ying naturally also heard what Chen Qing said. After Chen Yang called them, they nodded and went back to the house together.

Not long after they returned to the house, Chen Qing also moved the pile of rice and flour to the basement.

When he bought the supplies and delivered them these past two days, he asked the delivery guy to move them into the garden, and then he moved them to the basement himself.

The reason for doing this, of course, is that they don't want the guys in the various stores to see the basement full of supplies.

Anyway, considering his physical strength, this kind of hard work is nothing.

"Let me change my clothes first."

After entering the house, Chen Qing spoke to Chen Yang and the other two who were sitting in the living room.

As he spoke, he walked towards his room.

Although the rice and flour were not heavy for him, the dust from the outside of the packaging would fall on him.

"Should you... call him?"

Chen Yang looked at Chen Qing who was walking towards the room and said hesitantly.

After saying that, he raised his hand and pointed to Jueying's room on the second floor.

"No, he knows."

Chen Qing shook his head and replied.

It was precisely because Liuying might start a war that he brought Jueying to meet Yue Suchun and the others.

Therefore, Jueying knew his purpose when he started buying supplies.

Therefore, there is naturally no need to notify Jueying.

What's more, with Jueying's keen hearing, he could hear their conversation even without going downstairs.

"That's it."

After hearing this, Chen Yang didn't say anything else.

Soon, Chen Qing went back to his room and changed his clothes, then returned to the living room and sat down next to Chen Zhengzhong, Yang Ying, and Chen Yang.

"Is such that……"

After sitting down, Chen Qing organized his words and told the three people the reason why he bought supplies in the past two days.

After listening to Chen Qing's story, the three of them were immediately shocked!
"Brother Bing, you are kidding me... Will Ryuying really go to war with us?!"

Chen Yang muttered to himself in disbelief.

Chen Qing heard this, glanced at him, and said calmly: "Hasn't it been published in the newspapers these days? The Liuying Consulate held a press conference two days ago and issued an ultimatum to the Central State. Didn't you see it?"

"I saw it, I saw it..."

Chen Yang frowned and said, "But I thought it was just a negotiation tactic and didn't think the matter was that serious."

After all, Chen Yang had been to college and had received education. Although he had not broadened his horizons in a remote area like Qianyang, he could still see the more superficial side of such things.

"That's just the surface."

Chen Qing replied: "Of course, what I said is just a possibility. It may not happen, but it's always right to plan ahead and be prepared. At worst, we can sell the things at a small loss. It's impossible for rice, flour, grain and oil to not sell."

"...It seems so."

After hearing this, Chen Yang nodded in agreement. After seeing that the two had reached an agreement, Yang Yingcai said with a worried look on his face: "Bingbing, Yangyang, what if a war really breaks out? You two haven't found wives yet. Our Chen family must not be extinct! Otherwise, you should hurry up and find one. If it doesn't work, find someone to have a child, so that our Chen family can have a descendant."

"..."

Chen Qing didn't expect that after hearing what he said, Yang Ying was worried about this.

For a moment, he was speechless.

Chen Yang also looked like he didn't know how to respond.

It was Chen Zhengzhong who spoke up and broke the awkwardness.

"Why are you saying these things at this time!"

Chen Zhengzhong frowned and said, "If Liuying really goes to war with us, they should do their best to defend their country. They don't have time to talk about these private affairs!"

...It's better to talk about children's love affairs.

Chen Qing couldn't help but complain in his heart.

However, he did not refute it.

Because he came from another world and had no sense of belonging to this country, it was inevitable that he had selfish thoughts.

But both Chen Zhengzhong and Chen Yang have lived on this land since childhood, so it is normal for them to have such feelings.

Afterwards, the four members of the Chen family discussed in the living room what to do if a war really broke out.

Most of the time, Chen Qing was talking and the other three were listening.

Occasionally, the other three would ask some questions.

After talking for a long time, as the night went on, Chen Qing finally ended the topic with these words:
"...But what I said is all based on the assumption that a war will really break out. But it doesn't necessarily mean that a war will break out. It's possible that, as Brother Yang said, this might be a negotiation technique that Ryuying used to win by surprise. You don't have to worry too much. It's so late now. You should go to bed early. It won't be too late to worry about it when the day comes."

Chen Qing, the backbone of the family, stopped talking about this topic, and Chen Yang and the other two naturally did not continue.

Afterwards, the Chen family began to wash up and rest one after another.

Silent all night.

The next morning, Chen Qingtian got up before dawn to practice "Yuan Qigong" to replenish and restore the "Qi" refined by the last high-pressure "Qigong".

During these three days, he also replenished a lot of refined "Qi", and was almost ready to start the third high-pressure "Qi training".

Calculating the time, if Liu Yilin had not been lazy, the iron door of the high-voltage room should have been repaired and debugged by now.

"We'll go to West City after we finish practicing."

While practicing, Chen Qing made a preliminary plan for today's schedule in his mind.

Then, as he practiced, the sky gradually changed from pitch black to hazy and finally to bright.

Not long after daybreak, a group of newspaper sellers suddenly rushed from other parts of Sanyang to Yunshan Road, holding newspapers in their hands and shouting:
"Important news! Important news! The Ryu-Ying warship entered our waters last night! The Ryu-Ying Consulate's call three days ago was not empty talk!"

The same slogan was shouted out over and over again by these newspaper sellers.

Chen Qing, who was practicing martial arts in the garden, stopped moving when he heard this.

The next second, he quickly finished his training, then rushed out, came to the iron gate, frowned and shouted to the newspaper seller on the street outside: "Give me a newspaper!"

On the street called "Yunshan Road", newspaper men come to sell newspapers every day.

Although there are not many people living here, almost every household here buys newspapers every day and are high-quality customers.

So, newspaper men are also willing to come here.

"okay!"

A nearby newspaper seller heard Chen Qing's voice and immediately ran over and handed a newspaper to Chen Qing through the gap in the iron gate.

As Chen Qing reached out to take the newspaper, he heard a "rustling" sound from the side.

He glanced sideways and saw that it was Jueying who jumped directly from the second-floor window.

"Give me one too."

Jueying jumped down and said to Chen Qing with a frown.

Chen Qing nodded, and then said to the newspaper seller outside: "Get another one."

"okay!"

After hearing this, the newsman took out another copy from the canvas bag he was carrying across his shoulder and handed it to him.

After Chen Qing took it, he threw it to Jueying who was walking over, then took out money to pay for two newspapers, and then carefully read the news on them.

The news was very brief, and the main content was what the newspaper men shouted: Ryuying’s warships were discovered deep in the East China Sea!
However, this newspaper is the news released by the Huhai Daily, which has an official background.

So, this news should be true.

"I didn't expect that the warships of those beasts like Ryuying would actually come!"

After reading the newspaper, Chen Qing just frowned.

But next to Chen Qing, after Jueying finished reading the newspaper, he, who was usually cold and taciturn, actually started cursing in hatred.

After a while, Chen Yang and the other two were awakened by the shouting of the newspaper men, and they all walked out of the villa in their pajamas.

Seeing Chen Qing and Jueying with a broken arm standing in front of the iron gate, the three of them walked over with a look of surprise on their faces.

Chen Yang said in surprise: "Brother Bing, what I just heard was not an illusion, right..."

Upon hearing this, Chen Qing glanced at him and threw the newspaper in his hand over.

Chen Yang was just an ordinary person, without Chen Qing's skills. Plus, he was too shocked and failed to catch the newspaper steadily, so it fell to the ground.

But Chen Yang quickly picked it up and read the contents of the newspaper.

Then, he looked up at Chen Qing in a trance and said, "Brother Bing, it seems like a war is really about to break out..."

Behind Chen Yang, the illiterate Chen Zhengzhong and Yang Ying heard the conversation between the two. Chen Zhengzhong frowned and looked heavy, while Yang Ying's face was full of worry.

Seeing the three people like this, Chen Qing said to comfort them: "Don't panic, it's just a warship coming, there shouldn't be a fight for the time being. Anyway, remember what I said last night. The atmosphere in Hu Hai will probably be a little tense for a while, but as long as you stay at home, you will be fine."

After saying that, he looked at Jueying standing beside him and said, "I hope you can take care of my home during this time, just as a way of repaying the half life you owe me, how about that?"

After hearing this, Jueying thought for a moment and nodded, "Okay."

Seeing Jueying agreed, Chen Qing nodded slightly.

Then, he looked at Chen Yang and the other two and said, "I'm going to go out and find out whether this news is true or not. You guys wait for me at home. Don't worry, you've already seen my kung fu, I'll be fine."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yang and the other two looked at each other in surprise.

Just as they were looking at each other in bewilderment, the street "Yunshan Road" suddenly exploded because of the slogans shouted by these newspaper vendors!

Many garden houses that were previously deserted now had people rushing out and standing in front of their iron gates, waving to buy newspapers.

And this is just the tip of the iceberg.

After the entire "Huhai" was swept by this news, an unprecedented chaos suddenly occurred!
