Accidentally accomplished something?

Subsequently, Zhao Dongchuan went to search Hei Lao Da's body, finding over a thousand yuan, several hundred catties of grain coupons, and some industrial coupons. Was he really carrying such a large sum with him? Did he think he also had a spatial dimension and wasn't afraid of being robbed?

Zhao Dongchuan had a speechless expression!

He had no idea that Hei Lao Da had just finished dealing with a batch of goods he had forcibly plundered from the black market. This large sum was meant to be partially distributed to his subordinates, partially kept for himself, and the rest was to be used for speculative business. Instead, it all benefited Zhao Dongchuan, who got everything.

When searching Hei Lao Da's jacket, he noticed something seemed to be hidden inside. Pulling open the clothing, he found a hidden inner pocket sewn in, which would have been easily overlooked if not for his carefulness.

Zhao Dongchuan pulled out a letter from the inner pocket. It was densely covered with characters he recognized, but when combined, he couldn't understand them at all. It was all nonsensical, seemingly ambiguous words, with only the character 'Ge' left at the end.

"Is this encrypted?" Zhao Dongchuan pondered, a flash of inspiration striking him as he recalled spy dramas he had seen in his original world.

"Damn, this is a big fish! Tsk! Tsk! Tsk!"

Zhao Dongchuan was a little excited. He had stumbled upon this, very likely uncovering a den of an external force. He had performed a meritorious deed.

After a while, he slowly calmed down. He had indeed uncovered a den, but it was a pity he couldn't expose himself. This credit wouldn't come to him.

He put the letter back, checked that nothing was left behind, and then Zhao Dongchuan began to consider how to call the police.

The gunshots just now were fired indoors, and he wasn't sure if they had been heard outside. He quickly pondered on the spot.

To be safe, Zhao Dongchuan thought of a way that could attract others' attention without exposing himself.

He opened the door, quickly went to the kitchen, found some firewood, placed it in the middle of the yard, and then lit it with a lighter. Once the smoke began to rise, he found a moment when no one was around and climbed out of the yard.

As thick smoke billowed, it quickly attracted the attention of passersby.

"Fire! Help!"

With people's shouts, the surroundings immediately became lively. Neighbors grabbed their water buckets and basins, filled them with water, and prepared to extinguish the fire.

As the courtyard gate was crashed open, people were startled to find a ground full of "corpses" and the pile of firewood burning like a bonfire in the middle of the yard.

Not long after, a police jeep drove over; the police had arrived.

After the area was cordoned off, medical personnel soon arrived to examine the "corpses."

Zhao Dongchuan merely hid in a distant corner, silently observing the situation unfold.

Only when he saw the police arrive did he relax, then turned and left!

...

After walking a few streets, Zhao Dongchuan slipped into an unoccupied corner, took out a jacket from his spatial dimension, changed his clothes, and then took out a bicycle from his spatial dimension.

Zhao Dongchuan rode his bicycle towards the bus station, bought a ticket, boarded the bus, and by the time he arrived at Yuanxi County, it was already afternoon.

He rode his bicycle to an unobserved spot before taking off his system glasses.

Out of caution, it was only after several detours that he finally returned to his original appearance.

Better safe than sorry! Lay low if you can!

Zhao Dongchuan chuckled self-deprecatingly.

Now that he was back in Yuanxi County, he wasn't in a hurry to return to Shuangshui Village. After all the commotion, he hadn't eaten anything yet, and his stomach had long been rumbling.

Zhao Dongchuan entered a state-run restaurant and ordered a few small dishes and seven or eight white flour steamed buns.

It was already past mealtime, so there weren't many people, and the food was served quickly.

By the time Zhao Dongchuan had eaten his fill, it was already four or five in the afternoon. He paid for the food and grain coupons, then set off again, riding his bicycle directly towards Shuangshui Village.

Along the way, Zhao Dongchuan silently reviewed and organized his gains from this trip. He had acquired nearly 2,000 yuan, over 500 catties of wheat and sorghum, twenty to thirty large cleavers, various tickets, industrial coupons, and several old bicycles from those "little darlings."

This wave had been a huge profit. Thanks to the "wealth-bringing children!"

He reconsidered the events, going over everything, and concluded that even if those people were interrogated about him, at worst, the black market would be shut down. There was no surveillance at this time, and he had his system glasses to change his identity, leaving no trace.

It just meant that Li Huiying would need to find a different place to sell watches in the future. She couldn't sell them in Huangyuan City anymore; she didn't have the ability to change her identity at will, and if the authorities targeted her, she definitely wouldn't escape.

Zhao Dongchuan rode while contemplating, and after another bumpy journey, he finally arrived at Shuangshui Village.

Villagers greeted him warmly along the way.

Ever since he helped establish the "Drought Relief Work Group" last time, the villagers had held him in high regard.

Although a thunderstorm came after a period, followed by continuous rain, ending the drought, if it hadn't been for the early Drought Relief Work Group's mediation,

and the rational use of Dongla River water to irrigate the fields, their harvest would have been largely lost. They would have missed the optimal time for crops to bear fruit, causing many wheat and sorghum plants to be barren, making their lives even harder.

Zhao Dongchuan arrived at his dilapidated cave dwelling and looked it over. Fortunately, aside from a bit of dust, nothing else had changed.

He hadn't asked anyone to help look after it before he left; in fact, he preferred not to trouble others with many things and handled them himself.

He found a basin of water and a rag and spent about half an hour cleaning the entire place.

Meanwhile, Sun Shaoping, who had returned home earlier from work, heard the news and immediately came to find Zhao Dongchuan.

"Dong Ge, you're back!" Sun Shaoping said happily.

"Shaoping, you've come. How have you been recently?" Zhao Dongchuan said with a slight smile.

"Dong Ge, since you've been away these past few days, I've been studying and doing exercises by myself at night, but there are many problems I can't solve!" Sun Shaoping scratched his head, a little embarrassed.

"Hahaha, take your time. After all, your foundation is too weak, and there's a lot to catch up on. Come over again tonight, and I'll explain them to you!"

"Thank you, Dong Ge!" Shaoping smiled happily.

"Dong Ge, will you come to our house for dinner tonight?" Shaoping asked.

"No need to be polite, I'll just cook for myself. By the way, has your Shaoan Ge returned yet?"

"No, my brother has been gone for almost a month and hasn't returned. He said he'd be back in ten days at most, so he's probably been delayed by something!" Shaoping was also puzzled.

Just as he was speaking, a clear voice called out from outside the courtyard.

"Dong Ge, you're back!"

"Oh, it's Lanxiang. Are you home from school?" Zhao Dongchuan saw that it was Sun Lanxiang, walking towards him with her bag.

"Ge, you're here too!" Lanxiang also saw Sun Shaoping and said a little shyly.

"Yes, I heard Dong Ge was back, so I came to see him. Are you home from school?" Shaoping said, stroking Lanxiang's head.
