Anti-Japanese War: Starting from Yaobai

Chapter 2266 It’s all my fault for being too kind!

"what?"

The Crown Prince was stunned. He was asked to pay? Did he overstate the price? These things were only worth 70,000 or 80,000 yuan, and that was an exaggeration.

  Can it be sold at this original price? It's impossible, right?

And I don't have that much money. I'm just a small translator, where can I get that much money?

So the Crown Prince smiled awkwardly and said, "Hero, although I really want to buy it, I really don't have that much money!"

Hearing this, Duanwu sighed and said, "That's a pity. I originally wanted to give you a chance to start a new life, but now it seems that..."

"I buy it, I buy it!"

Before Duanwu could finish his words, the Crown Prince bought it.

But he really doesn't have that much money, but it shouldn't be a problem if he asks his uncle for some.

Duanwu naturally would not let the crown prince go like this. He found a bag, carried the cash on his back and followed the crown prince.

The crown prince was well aware of Duanwu's strength, so he didn't dare to play any tricks. Even though he knew that his money would be wasted, he had no choice but to compromise.

  Because just think about it, would he dare to take the Japanese's things?

If he dares to ask for it, perhaps the death of the Japanese in Sanrunbao will be blamed entirely on him. How many heads does he have to lose?

So at this time, he could only spend money to avoid disaster. After all, as long as he was alive, he would naturally have money.

So he returned to his home, not only took out all his savings, but also took Duanwu to his uncle's house to borrow money.

His uncle made a lot of extra money by following his path.

Although his uncle always lost money selling grain to the Japanese, he made the money back from ordinary people.

The inferior goods are passed off as good ones, and the grains are screened and classified into three grades: high, medium and low.

The good ones are sold to the Japanese at low prices, while the bad ones are sold to the Chinese as good ones, making high profits.

The Japanese accepted benefits from the Crown Prince's uncle, and the Crown Prince was a translator, so they naturally sided with him, which resulted in the deceived people having nowhere to complain. Other grain merchants in Sanrun Fort were even more excluded by the Crown Prince and his uncle, and either went bankrupt or moved to other counties and towns.

Therefore, in recent years, the Crown Prince's uncle has also made a lot of money and obeyed the Japanese. Otherwise, if Tang Jiujiu asked him to go to the headquarters to ask for money, he would not have agreed so readily and packed a lot of food for Tang Jiujiu.

Of course, Tang Jiujiu and Arou had already left at this time, and when Duanwu arrived, the crown prince's uncle was settling accounts.

When he saw the Crown Prince coming in, he thought that the Crown Prince had come to give him money. After all, Duanwu was carrying a large bag, which seemed to be filled with money.

The Crown Prince's uncle greeted him with a smile and was about to exchange a few words with the Crown Prince and collect the money. But the Crown Prince asked directly, "Uncle, do you have any cash?"

The Crown Prince's uncle asked in surprise: "Why? Are you short of money?"

The Crown Prince said, "Uncle, don't ask so many questions. Just give me the money. I will pay you back when I make money in the future."

"oh oh!"

The uncle of the crown prince responded twice, but did not dare to say anything more. After all, his nephew was backed by the Japanese, and he was counting on his nephew to make a fortune.

So the Crown Prince's uncle went to raise money. Duanwu put the bundle on the counter, looked at the many empty spaces and said, "Your uncle's store is doing good business. These empty spaces should have been sold recently, right? Who is so generous to buy so much food?"

The Crown Prince naturally didn't know, but at this moment, the Crown Prince's uncle came back and heard what Duanwu said, and he smiled triumphantly: "Of course it was sold to the Imperial Army. I am very loyal to the Imperial Japanese Army." Duanwu nodded. He was a little reluctant before, but now it seems that he is too kind. The Crown Prince's uncle is obviously also a traitor.

So after receiving the money, he didn't feel any psychological pressure at all.

"Sayunara!"

After getting the money, Duanwu shared it directly with the crown prince and his uncle.

The Crown Prince bowed and nodded to see Duanwu off respectfully. It turned out that the old man mistook Duanwu for a Japanese.

The Crown Prince was somewhat relieved, relieved that the other party was a man of his words, otherwise, killing him would be just like killing an ant.

However, at this time, the Crown Prince's uncle asked the Crown Prince: "Crown Prince? The Imperial Army just purchased a lot of food from me. What are they going to use it for?"

"what?"

  The Crown Prince was surprised because the imperial army in Sanrun Fort had been completely wiped out, so where would the imperial army come from to buy food?

At this time, the Crown Prince's uncle was also very surprised: "What? Didn't the Imperial Army buy food? I saw that was the Imperial Army's car?"

The Crown Prince said speechlessly: "The Imperial Army's car was robbed by the guerrillas."

"what?"

The Crown Prince's uncle was horrified and then fell to the ground, because that was a whole cart of grain. If the funds could not be recovered and he had lent his nephew so much money, he would not even have the money to purchase more goods.

However, the Crown Prince's uncle had been in the business world for many years. After calming down, he grabbed the Crown Prince's pants and said, "Nephew, the guerrillas stole my food. You have to ask the Imperial Army to help me get it back. I am your uncle, right?"

The Crown Prince had a bitter look on his face, thinking, "I'm going to return your food, but I don't have any money left."

But his uncle refused to give in, so the crown prince had to tell the truth: "Uncle, the ones who just came with me were guerrillas, and the money I took was to buy my life."

"Ah? Doesn't that mean they're all gone?"

The Crown Prince's uncle once again sat down on the ground because his food had been stolen by the guerrillas and his money had also been taken away by the guerrillas.

  And all this was earned by him working hard for four or five years!

Thinking that he was about to go bankrupt, the Crown Prince's uncle was in tears.

But suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something, and he and the Crown Prince laughed and said, "Nephew, I remembered something. This guerrilla has a rule that they will not take anything from the masses. So they should return my food after they cheated me of it. And your money, they, the guerrillas, should not rob you in this way. Hehe, words once spoken cannot be spilt, how can they go back on their words?"

The Crown Prince explained: "My uncle is not like this."

"Don't say anything more, your uncle will help you get your money back.

Humph! If they don’t return my food or my money, I will tell everyone that their guerrillas cheated the people of their food, robbed them, and bullied the weak.

All right, I'll go get the food and money back right now, hehe!"

Before the crown prince could finish his words, his uncle walked out of the grain store confidently and headed towards the south city gate.

Because the car just now was heading for the South City Gate! (End of this chapter)
