Chapter 1340: Side Story: Having the Whole World in View (17)
After the battle in which five pirate ships were destroyed, Zhou Zhou led his men to search the nearby pirate nests and found countless merchants’ goods.
Due to the high quantity and value of the goods, the soldiers more or less took some for themselves when they rushed in. Zhou Zhou felt that this was disadvantageous to their long-term cooperation with the merchants, but since he had to eliminate the pirates, he could not keep an eye on them from time to time. Therefore, he simply handed this matter to Little Lion, Qi Wenzheng.
There were three reasons. Firstly, Qi Wenzheng would not covet these goods, so he would not keep them for himself. Secondly, Qi Wenzheng could suppress the soldiers with his high status. Thirdly, considering this kid was meticulous, it would be very difficult for someone to steal those riches under his nose.
In conclusion, Little Lion was asked to stay behind.
The brothers thought that they could fight side by side on the battlefield, but they were separated after only participating in four battles.
Tiger Head promised with tears in his eyes that he would kill more enemies to make up for Little Lion’s share.
The corners of Little Lion’s mouth twitched as he said, "As long as you come back alive and able-bodied."
With that, Tiger Head turned around and left.
Little Lion sighed worriedly and asked the two secret guards to follow Tiger Head.
Seeing the two secret guards hesitate, Little Lion said with a smile, "Since I’m only in charge of counting the stolen goods, I won’t be in any danger. On the other hand, Tiger Head is rash, so it’s best that you guys follow him and advise him against being reckless. If he’s stubborn, knock him out. I’ll bear the consequences."
Little Lion thought of the secret guards’ style of doing things and threatened slightly, "Don’t let him do whatever he wants just like how you were with us before."
The secret guards looked at each other and lowered their heads in agreement, then turned around and chased after Tiger Head.
