Chapter 231 The Tangled Trio
Chapter 231 The Tangled Trio
The atmosphere suddenly became silent.
The three of them looked at the seven or eight trucks that took up half the street, all hesitating, unsure of what to do.
If they weren't mistaken, the truck cabins were likely filled with goods for trade.
After all, they had now occupied an Ecological Park, and it was said there was also an orchard, so there should be plenty of food to fill their bellies.
With so many goods, coupled with the reputation of the Peng family brothers,
the higher-ups were definitely going to send someone to buy them.
If they were to jump out and accuse the other party of murder at this moment, this deal would surely fall through, and if it happened to displease Mayor Li or any other leader...
"Forget it, if you ask me, we better stay out of this."
"What do you guys think?"
The man in the leather jacket thought for a moment and then voiced his thoughts to the man in the duckbill cap, his eyes eagerly awaiting a response.

Meanwhile, the man next to them interjected,
"Hey, have you guys forgotten something?"
"The Peng family brothers are untouchable, but there's still someone we can deal with!"
Upon hearing this, the other two glanced over in confusion, then quickly grasped their companion's meaning.
The three of them had witnessed the two from the Peng family coming back from a certain shack.
They might not remember the number on the door, but they remembered its exact location clearly enough to find the shabby hut that looked like a pigsty if they turned back now.
If they couldn't touch the real culprit, then they needed to find a scapegoat fast.@@@@
Otherwise, once dawn came, the higher-ups would definitely inquire about the incident.
How would the three of them explain themselves then?
"I think it's a good idea."
"If we're going to do it, we need to act fast."
"Before that guy realizes something's wrong and slips away, then we'd really be in trouble."
After considering for a moment, the man in the leather jacket affirmed his companion's idea and was ready to head back and take the person from that shack.
The man next to them was somewhat excited that they finally took his suggestion seriously.
Normally his words were as good as flatulence.
No one paid him any attention.
But just as the two were about to stand up, they saw the man in the duckbill cap still squatting on the ground, showing no intention of leaving with them.
"Bro, what's wrong?"
"Let's go."
The man who had proposed the idea was immediately puzzled and asked him.
Ordinary goods like those in the magazine could hardly arouse his interest anymore.
"Tsk tsk, so flat-chested and she made it onto a magazine?"
"The butt's too flat."
"This one's not bad. What a pity, big chest and round butt, but alas, the legs are a tad short. I still prefer them with longer legs."
Zhang Ye regretfully put down the magazine, but his gaze involuntarily fixated on the long legs wrapped in jeans next to him.
Perhaps due to long-term exercise and training, the thighs looked very full and rounded.
And the curve suddenly pulled back as it went down.
Not an ounce of extra flesh on the calves.
Perfect proportions.
But before he could take a better look, Peng Liu, who had just returned from outside, burst in and excitedly shouted, "Boss, I'm back. I've got something I need to report to you!"
Before Zhang Ye could answer, Peng Yue, who was standing by the window smoking, already frowned and scolded:
"Peng Liu, who let you barge in without knocking?"
"Where are the manners I taught you?"
"Gone to the dogs?"
The excitement on Peng Liu's face instantly froze, and soon, he lowered his head in embarrassment and said to Zhang Ye:
"Sorry, boss. My fault."
"How about..."
"I try that again?"
Zhang Ye found it amusing, but he didn't care too much, as he knew best how loyal these people were.
And it was for this reason that he always treated his subordinates with a gentle attitude.
Seeing Peng Liu about to leave, he immediately waved his hand and said:
"All right, all right, no need for all that hassle, just pay attention next time."
Then he looked at Peng Yue with a smile and said, "And you, Peng Yue, you're always yelling at Peng Liu even though he's all grown up. How is that right?"
The somewhat ashamed Peng Liu, hearing these words, instantly felt a surge of gratitude in his eyes.
Look at how the boss speaks!
That's real brotherhood!
After chiding Peng Yue, Zhang Ye turned back to Peng Liu and gestured for him to sit down before asking, "So, is that guy reliable?"
Peng Liu nodded, his expression becoming much more serious.
"He should be reliable."
"At least what he has told us seems to be true."
"His wife was indeed lying in bed, and when I went in, she seemed somewhat out of it, as for his daughter, it looks like she hasn't had a full meal for quite some time."
