Chapter 130: Chapter 129: Serves You Right—Don’t You Know How to Ask for Help?

Ling Chengyan saw an opportunity from the attitude of the procurement station and simply discussed with the production team leader to buy more grapefruits, at a slightly higher price than the procurement price.

The production team leader and the members had a good impression of them, and they were very satisfied selling the fruit to them. They even proactively helped select the grapefruits, pack them into baskets, weigh, and load them onto the truck, being so enthusiastic that Zhang Wanxiang and the others didn’t have to lend a hand.

When the truck was driven far away, the team members were still waving goodbye from their original spot.

Ma Dajun clicked his tongue repeatedly, but for the first time didn’t babble incessantly, instead he secretly admired them, “The master is indeed the master, look at that, within a short time, several old ladies were holding onto the master’s hand, unwilling to let go, almost treating her like their own daughter.”

After a while, Ma Dajun looked at the gradually darkening sky and asked, “Master, are we heading to the county town tonight or?”

The county town wasn’t far from the city area. If they didn’t enter the county town and drove for about another hour on the night road, they would reach the city area.

Anyway, to those who have maneuvered through a hail of bullets, returning to the rear, there’s truly nowhere they can’t go; even if running on night roads, no one was scared.

Ling Chengyan pursed her lips, looking ahead at the car, and said: “I’m afraid we can’t go to the city area.”

Ma Dajun was struggling with a grapefruit, upon hearing those words, he suddenly raised his head to look, and saw a truck tilted and blocked across the mountain road, completely obstructing the path.

“Mas… Master, that truck ahead…” Ma Dajun blinked hard, seeing the vehicle ahead clearly, he was too shocked to speak coherently.

Wow, truly amazing, just mentioned a crash, and there really is a crash, and it’s into the mountain.

While Ma Dajun was lost in thought, Ling Chengyan had already stopped driving the truck.

Jumping off the truck, waving to the vehicles behind, Ling Chengyan quickly walked towards the accident vehicle.

This place was an S-bend, it was unclear how the driver was driving, instead of rolling into the roadside mountain ditch, they crashed into the rock on the inside track, the front of the truck was severely deformed, with one side of the hood lifted up, exposing most of the machinery.

Ling Chengyan first circled around the truck to ensure the fuel tank was undamaged, the truck header and machine were severely damaged, and the windshield was shattered, the three people inside were injured, with the driver slumped over the steering wheel, bloodied, motionless, life or death unknown.

The other two were trapped but conscious, seeing Ling Chengyan approaching, they didn’t care about past conflicts and hastily cried for help.

Ling Chengyan stepped on the board and leaned into the driver cabin to observe their condition, ignoring the cries for help from the two, and jumped out heading back.

“Come back and save us, don’t leave, you’re soldiers, yet ignoring people’s lives…”

Ma Dajun was slower than Ling Chengyan, still inspecting the machine damage at the front, hearing the young man’s words, his anger surged, and he said angrily: “Begging for help, yet your mouth is still filthy, it serves you right to die!”

Zhang Wanxiang and two soldiers came running with steel wires, hearing Ma Dajun’s words, laughed: “Why waste words on him, he doesn’t even understand human language!”

“You, you guys…” The young man’s legs were trapped, unable to move, and the severe pain had nearly driven him to faint, hearing these words, he was even more angered, nearly passing out.

The middle-aged man beside him was more seriously injured, his face had slammed into the shattered windshield, leaving his head and face covered in blood.

But he was conscious, hearing the young man beside him still unable to speak sensibly while seeking help, truly scared that if he continued talking, they would resent them and ignore them.

“Shut up!” This fool, begging for life and still not knowing to speak gently? Truly serves him right to die.

If they can be saved this time, he’ll send the guy away once they return.

This kind of fool will only cause trouble in the future.

Zhang Wanxiang and his crew attached steel wires to the rear of the accident vehicle, Ling Chengyan started her truck and slowly reversed, dragging the accident vehicle and aligning its direction.

At this point, the narrow mountain road finally made room for one vehicle to pass, Ling Chengyan’s truck drove to the front, hooked the accident vehicle at the rear, and dragged it slowly ahead.

As for the three people inside the accident vehicle, after the vehicle was aligned, they were extracted using an emergency demolition method.

The driver was in critical condition, the other two were slightly better in terms of injury, though their legs were obviously broken. Comparatively, the young man in the middle was least injured, probably because the stick shift buffered his legs, the wounds on his head and face from broken glass were lighter; anyway, the other two were saved and fell into a comatose state, while he kept his mouth tightly shut and eyes closed, but Ling Chengyan knew he wasn’t unconscious.

Driving on a mountain road was already challenging, and towing an accident vehicle naturally slowed them down.

Fortunately, arrangements had been made for a vehicle to quickly transport the three injured to a county hospital for treatment.

As Ling Chengyan and her team dragged the accident vehicle down the mountain, nearing the county town, they met the unit’s vehicle for assistance.

Ling Chengyan handed over the accident vehicle to the other party, politely declined their thanks, didn’t enter the county town, made a detour, and headed to the city area.

This incident was just a small episode for Ling Chengyan and her entourage, after delivering the people and vehicle back, none of them dwelled on it, soon putting it behind them.

Heading north, a few days later, they passed through Jiang Province, Ling Chengyan witnessed the charm of the porcelain capital during this trip.

By chance, they saw clay blanks being loaded into the kiln and even witnessed the kiln opening on the same day.

Up front, the humdrum clay blanks going into the kiln were dull, not eye-catching in the least, after the intense fire refining, what came out of the opening kiln was exquisite porcelain.

This stunning transformation was incredibly wondrous, remarkably breathtaking, even Ling Chengyan felt quite shocked.

Half a month later, the convoy finally returned to Huicheng.

By now, it was November, Huicheng’s weather had turned very cold, it was fortunate they had military coats in the vehicle, and lucky that upon reporting back to the provincial military region they received new winter coats, thus avoiding catching colds.

When the vehicle was parked steadily, Political Commissioner He, Staff Officer Xing, and the company commander’s instructor were already waiting.

Ling Chengyan led the task force, lined up and saluted: “…Expected number twenty, actual number twenty, reporting back to the lea—der!”

Political Commissioner He and Staff Officer Xing were there to oversee, actual reception was by the company commander and the instructor.

The company commander was alright, his face stern and composed, not showing any obvious expression. However, the instructor had reddened eyes.

The company commander repeatedly said several times: “Good, good, it’s good that everyone’s back!”

Randomly, he solemnly ordered to assemble the squad, asking Political Commissioner He to give a speech.

Task turned in, dismissed.

Ling Chengyan then followed the leaders back to the company department. Political Commissioner He and Staff Officer Xing wisely left.

Ling Chengyan handed over an account book: “Originally thought of buying some rare fruit for the family to try something novel, accidentally bought a bit too much…”

The company commander didn’t even glance, Instructor Wu Yushu, however, took the account book and flipped through it, but then handed it back to Ling Chengyan.
