Chapter 334: Financial Ruin and the Harrier’s Message (5)_1
In the afternoon, Mo Yan found Xiao Zhu and asked him to help find several people to take turns guarding the warehouse. Now that the Xue Family knew the location of the warehouse, to prevent them from any underhanded moves, she had to be cautious. As for the store, Lizhong would take care of it with Tie Tou and Wang Pangtou on rotation.
For such a trivial matter, Xiao Zhu naturally agreed without hesitation, and he also informed Mo Yan about the recent misfortune of the Zhang Family.
Even though Mo Yan did not later request him to find people to guard the Zhang Family’s home, the friends he had previously sought out would still occasionally check on the place, and that was how they learned of the incident and rushed to tell him.
After hearing this, Mo Yan simply said, "They had it coming," with no sympathy for the Zhang Family’s plight. She disliked Yao Taohua, the "mistress" who meddled in someone else’s family, but she despised Zhang Ming even more for not being able to control his own desires.
Heavenly sins can be forgiven, but one brings destruction upon oneself. The disaster that befell the Zhang Family was of their own making. Had they not been insatiably greedy, always coveting more while still having food in their bowls, angering the "bowl," such an incident would not have occurred! And wasn’t the previous Zhang Fugui the same? If he hadn’t planned to make a big profit from the store by hoarding silver, would he have landed himself in jail?
When Mo Yan returned from Huixian Residence, she told Lizhong about all this. Lizhong merely smiled faintly; the outcome for the Zhang Family had nothing to do with him.
Lizhong had to guard the store at night with Wang Pangtou, so Mo Yan sat at the front of the flatbed pretending to drive, letting Little Black pull her and Tie Tou back to Liu Yang Village.
After settling Little Black and the cart in the yard, the sky had completely darkened. Carrying a windproof lamp, she visited the Wang Family to say that with the arrival of the New Year, there were many pickpockets and petty thieves on the streets, so Wang Pangtou had to help guard the store for a while and could only return the next day.
