Divine Doctor Mommy Is A True Big Shot-Chapter 654: The Recovered Goods
Feng Xiaoli blinked her eyes and had a look of "I just know it."
That was the intuition speaking to her.
"Seriously, how come you are here? Where is your mother?"
Gong Zhu helplessly picked up Feng Xiaoli.
He must’ve committed numerous sins in his last life to have encountered this mother and daughter in this one; both the older and younger had him completely wrapped around their fingers.
As he spoke, he took out some food from his chest and handed it to Feng Xiaoli.
Together with the following Hei Dian, the tall and the small figures left the forest.
Once outside the forest, over a dozen carriages were already loaded with goods.
The leading mercenaries found it odd that Soldier King Xia would bring a young girl along.
Wasn’t Soldier King Xia an orphan with a solitary nature? Why did she care so much for a little girl?
The mercenaries found Feng Xiaoli to be very cute and grew curious. However, what was a little girl doing in the middle of the night in a forest with a wolf?
"I picked her up in the forest."
Gong Zhu coughed lightly.
Feng Xiaoli blinked her large eyes but didn’t speak further. Although she provoked Gong Zhu to acknowledge his identity, considering his hesitant demeanor, Feng Xiaoli surmised that he must have his reasons for not acknowledging her and her mother.
Feng Xiaoli had a good impression of Gong Zhu; she was quite confident in her intuition. Gong Zhu was a good person, certainly not the type to abandon his mother and daughter.
"Soldier King Xia, now that we have found the goods, let’s deliver them back. We have made some real contributions this time, finding the goods faster than Soldier King Qi and his people."
The mercenaries were not particularly suspicious. They had been overwhelmed trying to find this batch of goods for the Phoenix Chamber of Commerce, but thankfully, they had finally located it.
All that was left was to hand it back to the Phoenix Chamber of Commerce to complete the task.
However, upon hearing this, Gong Zhu shook his head.
"No rush, I just got the news that Soldier King Qi and his people have found a batch of goods too."
This puzzled the mercenaries.
"Soldier King Qi found them too, but the goods are clearly in our hands."
This was what baffled Gong Zhu as well. Soldier King Qi was a well-known veteran. It made no sense for him to lie, and yet he indeed had found a batch of goods.
From the conversation with Feng Xiaoli earlier, Gong Zhu had learned that this batch of goods had recently been stored in the forest by a group of mysterious men in black. Xiao Junci’s arrival here obviously came from having the news too.
The fact that the mysterious men in black also took away some goods originally stored in tree holes was very strange.
Gong Zhu even began to suspect that these mysterious men in black might be related to Soldier King Qi and his people. But with Soldier King Qi as the other party, without solid evidence, he couldn’t rashly voice his suspicions. This matter had to be reported to his master for later disposition.
Thus, the goods at hand must first be handed over to his master.
"Let’s not head back to Baidi City for now. We’ll wait for my master to arrive, then we’ll go to Soldier Inn."
Judging by the time, his master should also be arriving in Baidi City soon.
Before that, he needed to take good care of Feng Xiaoli first. Gong Zhu heard from Deng Xiaoli that she had come to find her mother, implying Feng Bailing was also in Baidi City, which complicated Gong Zhu’s feelings.
Since joining Great Chu Team B last time, he has been eager to recognize Feng Bailing. The reason he participated in the Competition Among Ten Countries was not only to complete the task his master had entrusted to him but also because he wanted to meet Feng Bailing.
After the Xingxiu Sect was annihilated by him, he was forced to conceal his identity and change his status, and for some reason, he cannot yet reveal his identity to Feng Bailing, otherwise, it would bring her the danger of death.
In order not to expose his identity, he first had to settle down Xiao Li; otherwise, if his master saw Xiao Li, it would be troublesome.
On the other hand, after arriving at the Phoenix Chamber of Commerce, Feng Bailing learned about the ins and outs of the situation from Lady Lai.
Fortunately, Lady Lai had already received news that the Soldier Inn had found the batch of goods, which would be transported back to the city at night.
Not long after nightfall, Lady Lai took Feng Bailing to the Soldier Inn.
This time Feng Bailing went to Baidi City’s Soldier Inn, there was another purpose: to inquire about Noble Consort Dugu’s news.
According to Lady Lai, the new King of Soldiers in Baidi City was very young and approachable, and she believed he would definitely be able to help make a discovery.
By the time Feng Bailing arrived at Baidi City’s Soldier Inn, it was already late at night.
Although it was late at night, the Soldier Inn was still brightly lit at this time.
Baidi City’s Soldier Inn was newly established not long ago and looked much bigger than Qinghe City’s Soldier Inn, with mercenaries both inside and outside.
Lady Lai was about to step forward to explain the purpose of her visit.
"Lady Lai, you’ve come."
Feng Luochen strode forth, with a happy expression on his face.
In order to recover the goods lost by the Phoenix Chamber of Commerce, he had also been racking his brains. Thankfully, the merchandise had finally been found, and he had just checked that there were no issues with the goods.
"This time, we really ought to properly thank the Soldier Inn of Baidi City."
Upon seeing Feng Luochen, Lady Lai respectfully said.
Feng Luochen glanced at Feng San, first startled, then bowed his hands.
"Was it Brother Zhang who sent you? Brother Zhang is too worried; I’ve got everything under control. However, speaking of which, we really owe it to Xia Xing this time. I never expected this young fellow to be a King of Soldiers."
Feng Luochen had arrived in Baidi City a few days earlier than Feng Bailing. After learning of the loss of the goods from the Phoenix Chamber of Commerce, he also went out to search, but being unfamiliar with the place and on his own, he could find no clues. Having no other choice, he had to come to Baidi City’s Soldier Inn.
Unexpectedly, he met his teammate Xia Xing here and had only just learned that Xia Xing was Baidi City’s new King of Soldiers.
Thanks to knowing Xia Xing, he was able to issue an order to thoroughly investigate the matter, and that’s how they were able to find the lost goods so quickly.
Xia Xing is Baidi City’s new King of Soldiers?
Feng Bailing was stunned.
When Feng Bailing last parted ways with Xia Xing, because he had a good impression of her, Feng Bailing had proposed that Xia Xing join the Phoenix Mercenary Corps Group, but Xia Xing had declined.
Unexpectedly, she was actually a King of Soldiers, and Feng Bailing felt somewhat embarrassed about trying to recruit a King of Soldiers to his own ranks.
"She is one of the people in charge here. The situation in Baidi City is a bit special; it was personally established by the Emperor of Soldiers from the mercenary world. The Emperor of Soldiers has entrusted this place to the new King of Soldiers, Xia Xing, and an established King of Soldiers, Soldier King Qi."
Speaking of the Emperor of Soldiers from the mercenary world, Feng Luochen, a newcomer in the mercenary world, also showed full respect.
"Where is Xia Xing? I’d like to meet her."
Now that Xia Xing was one of the people in charge here, it should be easier to handle the matter of Noble Consort Dugu. Feng Bailing wanted to inquire about news, and it became much more straightforward.
