The soldiers would train every two days. Liu Tiezhu belonged to the logistics management warehouse.
The captain counted the number of grenades that were going to be thrown that day and asked Liu Tiezhu and the others to carefully place the grenades in the small cart.
In a while, these small carts filled with grenades would be transported to the martial arts arena to let the soldiers familiarize themselves with the feeling of throwing grenades so that they would not be nervous on the battlefield and cause problems.
Liu Tiezhu looked around. The other soldiers were carefully counting the grenades thrown. No one noticed him.
Liu Tiezhu stared at the grenade in front of him and quickly reached out to place a grenade that should have been placed in the cart into his pants.
He had specially modified his pants. When the grenade was placed inside, it could cover the key position without being especially obvious.
In just an instant, Liu Tiezhu broke out in a cold sw’eat.
Realizing that no one around him had discovered him secretly taking a grenade, Liu Tiezhu heaved a sigh of relief. He wiped his sw’eat and smiled smugly.
Everyone packed the grenades and pushed the small cart out. The captain suddenly stopped Liu Tiezhu. “Hey, fellow, stop!”
Liu Tiezhu instantly panicked. His legs were trembling. His remaining rationality told him not to panic. When he met the captain’s probing gaze, he almost knelt down.
The captain glanced at him meaningfully. While Liu Tiezhu couldn’t help but beg for mercy, the captain suddenly patted his shoulder and said happily, “1 didn’t expect you to have such weight!”
Liu Tiezhu was stunned. When he realized that everyone was glancing at his pants, he subconsciously blocked them and stammered, “No, no. Captain is the mighty one!”
The captain laughed. “Kid, you’re still so thin-skinned. No wonder you couldn’t get a wife!”
Everyone joined in. “You should take off your pants and show those women!”
“They will be shocked by your majestic aura and want to follow’ you wholeheartedly!”
Liu Tiezhu was so nervous that he broke out in a cold sweat. He pretended to scold, “If you act like a hooligan, you’ll be thrown into jail. 1 won’t do it!”
Everyone laughed even louder. Seeing that it was about time, the captain said, “Alright, kid, stop pretending to be a serious person!” He pointed at the others and said, “Stop laughing! Hurry up and transport the things over!”
The storeroom regained its calm. Liu Tiezhu still did not dare to relax. He was careful not to let his buddies take off his pants out of curiosity.
He avoided everyone until after work.
He held his breath and was home at last.
After closing the door, he took out the grenade from his crotch. Liu Tiezhu kissed it over and again and said ecstatically, “It almost took my life!”
He pulled out the box he’d prepared and placed the throwing grenade inside. The smile on his lips deepened.
It had almost killed him. How could 20 taels of silver be enough!
Holding the grenade and sleeping for the night, Liu Tiezhu got up at dawn and hid it in the cabinet. Feeling that it was not safe, he took it out and stuffed it into his smelly shoes before changing into his most presentable clothes and knocking on the door of the Yan family.
It was just dawn, and it was not time to start work yet.
The Yan family was in the same boat and were anxiously waiting for news from Liu Tiezhu.
Hearing the knock on the door, Madam Qu immediately rushed over to open the door. Her eyes lit up when she saw’ that it w’as Liu Tiezhu.
Liu Tiezhu looked at Yan Er and looked at him. Yan Er knew that the matter had been settled.
Yan Er led Liu Tiezhu into the room and asked with a smile, “How’ is it, Brother Liu?”
Liu Tiezhu smiled proudly. “If 1 make a move, 1’11 definitely succeed!”
Yan Er sized up him. “Where’s that thing?”
Liu Tiezhu rubbed his hands and gestured for him to take out the silver first.
Yan Er frowned. “We wdll do the transaction at the same time. Brother Liu, you should let me see the goods first, right?”
Liu Tiezhu said, “I’ve already stolen it, so why would 1 lie to you? 1 can’t eat it even if I keep it. Give me the silver first!”
Yan Er refused firmly. Liu Tiezhu said, “Alright, then give me another 20 taels. 1’11 personally bring the things over tomorrow!”
Yan Er’s eyes widened. “Didn’t we agree on 20 taels?”
Liu Tiezhu recalled the scene of him almost peeing his pants the day before and said bluntly, “I stole a grenade and was almost discovered by the captain! 1 exchanged my life for it. 30 taels is even too little!”
Yan Er said angrily, “How’ can you change your mind after we have agreed upon on it!”
Liu Tiezhu was fearless. “1 have just changed my mind. It’s fine if you don’t want it. Anyway, I won’t lose out with those io taels!”
Yan Er said angrily, “Aren’t you afraid that I’ll expose you!”
Liu Tiezhu looked at him as if he was looking at a fool. “You exposing me? If you didn’t instigate it, why would 1 steal a grenade? Do you really think the Lord is a pushover?”
“In any case, he who is down need fear no fall. I’m all alone. It’s not bad to have your entire family die with me!”
Yan Er glared at Liu Tiezhu. Liu Tiezhu sat down sw’aggeringly. “It’s useless to glare at me. If you pay, I’ll give it to you!”
Yan Er had no choice but to go out and discuss with Madam Qu.
When Madam Qu heard that Liu Tiezhu had raised the price, she rolled up her sleeves and w’as about to beat him up when Xia Dongmei stopped her. “Mother, the walls have ears. Don’t be agitated!”
Madam Qu said angrily, “Then what do you think we should do!”
“Now, w’e can only give him money!” Xia Dongmei said. She couldn’t let the duck in her mouth fly aw’ay.
If the Yan family wanted to soar, the grenade was indispensable.
Madam Qu glared at her. “Where can w’e get the silver?”
In the end, everyone looked at her.
They all knew’ how much silver Madam Qu had back then. Yan Er even said, “Mother, if there’s no silver, forget it.” In any case, he was not the one who paid for the ten taels of silver.
Yan Er did not fork out any money but Song Tianxian had already paid ten taels of silver. Her family still needed other expenses in the future, so she hurriedly said, “We don’t have money either!”
Xia Dongmei was even poorer.
At this point, Madam Qu looked at her selfish sons and daughters-in-law’ and gritted her teeth. “I really owe you little bastards!”
So be it!
Compared to her future wealth, this bit of money could not affect her retirement stash.
Madam Qu ran to the bank to withdraw’ ten taels of silver. When Liu Tiezhu received the silver, Yan Er followed him home and brought home the grenade that Liu Tiezhu had hidden in his leather shoes with a basket.
He looked nervous along the way and bumped into a few’ people, almost attracting the attention of the patrol officer.
Fortunately, his son had ended school and saw him and walked up to hold his hand. Only then did Yan Er’s expression relax a little.
As soon as he reached home and closed the door, Yan Er knelt on the ground weakly, panting heavily as if he was about to suffocate.
His sensible son brought him a cup of tea, but the others were all focused on looking at the grenade in the basket.
“Father, are you alright?”
Meeting his son’s concerned gaze, Yan Er suddenly felt a monstrous sense of regret.
What should he do if he was caught!
Unfortunately, since it had been done, there was no medicine for regret..
