Chapter 120 Xiaoman's Work



Chapter 120 Xiaoman's Work

Hei Xiazi happily stuffed the gold into his pocket, secretly praising Cheng Feng, his new boss, for being as generous as Boss Chen.

Hei Xiazi lived a very comfortable life while working for Chen Pi Asi.

Although Chen Pi Asi is ruthless and inhumane, he always keeps his word.

He never skimped on the money he was owed, and he was very generous with his money; he felt it was too hot to leave money unspent.

Therefore, Chen Pi Asi never lacked desperate men under his command, even though they all knew that the death rate of fighting against Chen Pi Asi was high.

"Don't worry, boss, I guarantee I'll handle this perfectly."

Then Han Qing and ten other disciples of the Unloading Ridge Sect, along with Hei Xiazi, left Cheng Feng's house under the cover of night.

The next day, the entire city of Golmud was gripped by a climate of fear and unease.

Because a local wealthy businessman, who was of mixed race and social standing, had all sixteen members of his family hanged in his living room.

Their men, who were responsible for protecting them, were riddled with bullets.

Among these sixteen people are their eighty-year-old parents and children who are just over ten years old.

Only a few maids escaped, but they were all knocked unconscious beforehand and had no clue whatsoever.

Because the nature of the incident was so egregious, you could see government officials rushing around even on the street.

"How did you arrange things for them?"

Cheng Feng and Chen Wenjin were walking on their way to the shop. Cheng Feng planned to expand the warehouse since he had some free time recently.

"He went out to work. Black Bear knows there are some fat pieces of meat nearby, so he'll take this opportunity to get them."

"Has he taken the wrong medicine? Why is he being so enthusiastic?"

Chen Wenjin expressed her doubts, as she knew Hei Xiazi was not such an easy person to talk to.

Cheng Feng said casually:

"Because I promised him that he would get 20 percent of every piece of meat, and then he was more enthusiastic than anyone else."

Chen Wenjin was speechless; even his father wasn't this generous.

No wonder the black bear not only didn't complain, but also shook out a few pieces of fat meat.

When they arrived at the street near the shop, Cheng Feng and Chen Wenjin left separately.

Chen Wenjin was going to the shops in the market to take care of some things, while Cheng Feng was going to the train station.

Arriving at the back door of the shop from the alley, this time another disciple of the Unloading Ridge sect was in charge of guarding the backyard.

"Boss, everything the guys brought back last night has been put into the warehouse. Besides our original items, there are quite a few other things as well."

"Okay, remember to keep the ledger safe, and record everything in the warehouse."

Cheng Feng also dislikes trouble; good habits need to be cultivated from the beginning.

It will be too late to make adjustments when the business gets bigger.

The disciple of the Unloading Ridge Sect agreed, and then Cheng Feng told him to go back to his work.

Entering the warehouse, Cheng Feng opened a mechanism at the antique shelf and descended the steps to the underground.

"Wake up, Xiaoman, get up and get to work!"

Cheng Feng took out the little pangolin armor Xiaoman, which was curled up in his arms, and after calling out to it a few times, the little guy stretched out its body.

Xiaoman held Cheng Feng's hand and looked around. It was very familiar with this place.

After all, it was dug out by my own hands.

"The workload this time is not large; we can expand the space by about 100 square meters."

As he spoke, Cheng Feng led Xiaoman into the innermost part of the warehouse.

The walls here have been reinforced with concrete, and Cheng Feng even installed several support pillars to prevent collapse.

"Let's do it here. First, open a door, and then expand the space behind the door."

Under Cheng Feng's command, Xiao Man displayed the style of the Pangolin Cave Armor.

The moment its claws touched the wall, it burrowed into the soil like a fish entering water.

Soon, large swathes of earth were excavated, and any stones that occasionally blocked the way were torn to pieces by Xiaoman's sharp claws.

Cheng Feng followed Xiao Man at a leisurely pace, taking the opportunity to store the soil and stones into his imaginary space.

An hour later, the space had been expanded to 100 square meters (10x10x3).

"Alright, that's enough for today. There's no need to rush. After all, Rome wasn't built in a day."

Cheng Feng picked up Xiao Man, who was still feeling unsatisfied, and comforted her.

For Xiaoman, digging is not a job, but a fun way to play.

Especially when its beloved owner plays with it, its happiness is doubled.

So when Cheng Feng stopped him, he reluctantly cupped Cheng Feng's hand in a gesture of respect.

And so, Cheng Feng spent his time there, just like going to work, expanding the space in the underground warehouse every day.

The trivial matters of the business were handled by two secretaries.

Every other week, they would have a short meeting together in Cheng Feng's study after dinner.

This is a formal meeting to report the week's developments, income, and expenditures to Cheng Feng.

The group of tomb raiders from the Unloading Ridge faction developed extremely rapidly.

With the veteran Hei Xiazi leading the way, they never returned empty-handed.

Moreover, there were basically no casualties among the personnel. Even when they encountered something difficult to deal with, Hei Xiazi was unable to provide timely assistance.

They still have a trump card that Cheng Feng prepared.

It's worth mentioning that when they first showed off the sheepskin bloodstains, the black bear was extremely envious.

He's different from Zhang Qiling; Xiao Ge's blood is unique, making him the absolute nemesis of all kinds of poisonous insects and zombies in the tomb.

Hei Xiazi wondered if Xiao Ge's skills were as good as his in the dark.

Only his blood-red blind man, who could ward off all evil, could not compare.

Now it's suddenly been discovered that Cheng Feng and his group have actually mass-produced this effect.

After emerging from the tomb that time, Hei Xiazi rushed over to find Cheng Feng that very night.

Finally, he used the large sum of money he had obtained from these tomb raiding trips to exchange for ten sheets of parchment from Cheng Feng.

Both parties were satisfied with the deal and felt they had gotten a good deal.

It's a win-win situation for everyone.

Regarding the massacre of the wealthy businessman's entire family, the official explanation was that a group of ruthless bandits had targeted the businessman's finances.

They left Golmud after committing murder and robbery. They will continue to investigate, so please don't worry.

Only a few people knew that this wealthy businessman had offended a powerful figure from outlying regions.

Cheng Feng's actions deterred many local forces, and there were no signs of double-crossing when doing business.

Before we knew it, the Chinese New Year was just around the corner, and it had already started snowing in Golmud.

The entire city was shrouded in a flawless white.

In Cheng Feng's small courtyard,

Tiger cub Xiaohua is playing in the snow. It pounces and rolls around in the thick snow.

A moment later, it clumsily jumped up to catch the swirling snowflakes.

Thanks to Cheng Feng's careful nurturing over this period, Xiao Hua's physique has grown significantly.

Even now, most large dogs aren't as robust as it.

At this moment, Cheng Feng was sitting in his study, with a pot of steaming tea beside him.

Holding a notebook in his hand,

This notebook contains all the information that the disciples of the Unloading Ridge Sect have gathered from the martial arts world during this period.

This can also be considered a year-end summary made by the disciple in charge of intelligence.

"Rumor has it that someone discovered a large tomb in the Qinling Mountains, but several groups of people went there and none of them came back."

Cheng Feng's gaze sharpened upon seeing one of the intelligence reports.
