Chapter 796: Reunion Again
Ah Min, who returned to the school playground in search of US dollars, had no idea that because a series of incidents had made the patrol force in the entire area unprecedentedly high, and the patrol teams stationed in various towns and towns were dispatched everywhere to carry out dragnet inspections overnight.
"Wow, it's finally back to its original owner!" According to the direction in his memory, Amin sneaked into the playground in the dark, and finally pulled out the small cardboard box that had been hidden in the sand pit in a hurry.
After checking the U.S. bills in the carton with the help of starlight, Amin was completely relieved, as long as he brought the U.S. bills home safely, then he would have enough money to apply for a passport and go to the mainland for refuge safely.
jumped out of the school over the wall, and before he had gone far, his mobile phone vibrate.
Amin took it out and looked at it, but it was his cousin Xiao Ma who called.
"Amin, where did you die? If you don't come back so late, Uncle Song is almost worried about you! Now the whole city of Saigon is investigating what traitors and spies, and if you mess around outside and get caught, you will be finished. Brother Ma said on the other end of the phone.
"It's okay, I'll go back right away, you tell Dad not to worry. That's it, hang up...... "Amin is now in good spirits on happy occasions, and hung up the phone happily, thinking that Brother Xiao Ma was alarmist, and found out what the traitorous spy had to do with him.
"Lalalala......"
Humming pop songs all the way to the grove where the bicycle was hidden, wearing glasses under a wine bottle, he fumbled around, found the bicycle as he wished, and happily rode back to Saigon.
Who knowsβ
Before he could ride far, he was immediately blocked by a group of people.
"No, it's the patrol! It's so late, how can there be so many people. Ah Min was puzzled, and he couldn't imagine why the patrol team, which was usually slack, would carry guns to everyone as if they were facing a great enemy.
Before he could say a word, he was ripped off his bicycle and captured.
"Sir, this was found from him." A patrol member handed over the small cardboard box that had been found on Amin to the hands of the captain.
Ordered his subordinates to turn on the flashlight and take a look through the light, and the commander who led the team immediately straightened his eyes, revealing an extremely greedy gaze.
Oh my God, so many dollars! Now that foreign exchange is so scarce, this small box of dollars is worth at least five years' salary.
"Sir, this guy is smuggling dollar bills!" The subordinate looked at Amin and said to the chief.
"Take him back!" As soon as the commander gave the order, Amin was immediately handcuffed and was put into the prisoner car in a depressed state.
The small box of U.S. bills was added to five by two and shared by all the patrol teams at the scene.

However, it was said that after Liu Jianming fled the village in the seized jeep, he nested in the mountains for the night.
As soon as the sky turned white the next day, Liu Jianming drove to the outskirts of Saigon, picked a secluded place and pushed the jeep down the river, and then sneaked into Saigon City with a little makeup.
"The shipping address on the manifest in Lu Fengchun's relics is in Saigon City, I just need to search for the medicinal herb shops in the city one by one and inquire one by one."
There are not many Chinese medicine shops in Saigon, and when it was almost noon, I finally visited all the large and small herbal medicine shops, but none of them had benzoin for sale.
"There is only one left, if there is no one here, then I can only go to other cities to see......" Standing under the signboard of Renaitang Chinese Medicine Shop, Liu Jianming lowered his head and thought helplessly.
I really didn't expect that it would take so much effort to find the first flavor medicine introduction, and I didn't know that it would be the Year of the Monkey to completely gather all the necessary materials for Jiuyang Dan.
"As long as the kung fu deep iron pestle is sharpened into a needle and works hard, you will definitely be able to achieve success! Since that 'silver-haired girl' Chen Junxi can successfully refine Jiuyang Dan without a golden finger, then I have a golden finger by my side, and there is no reason why I can't refine it. β
Thinking of this in my heart strengthened my determination to do alchemy.
He strode into the gate of Ren'ai Hall, although the shop was not too big, but although the sparrows were small, there were all kinds of organs, and in the strange medicinal fragrance, an old man with gray temples was screening medicinal materials behind the counter.
Liu Jianming walked to the counter, "Shopkeeper, I want to inquire, do you have a relatively rare medicinal herb for sale here?" β
The old man raised his head and looked at the customer in front of him through the lenses of his reading glasses: "Guest, I don't know which herbs you want to buy, our Renai Hall has been open for nearly 20 years, as long as it is a specialty of the Yue country, I can know a thing or two." β
Hearing what the shopkeeper said, Liu Jianming suddenly felt a lot more relieved, "Shopkeeper, have you ever heard of benzoin?" I need it urgently, at least one or two, do you have it in stock here? Or know where to buy it. β
"Benzoin?" The old man frowned involuntarily, "It's very unfortunate, if it's a peaceful season, don't say one or two, even a pound I can get it for you, as long as you can afford to pay that money." But nowβ"
He changed his words: "Don't say a word or two, even if it's half a penny." β
Liu Jianming's face was suddenly depressed, and his heart was like a dog, and he secretly thought, "I'm too unlucky, I've come all the way here to find benzoin, but I just caught up with the war, is it possible that I can wait until the war is over to come and buy?" They fought a civil war for ten years, and Lao Tzu has to wait for them for ten years? β
"But......" the old man made another turn of his mind, "if you are really in a hurry, you can only go to the place of origin and try your luck." There is a war going on near Saigon, and it is estimated that it will not be long before it will reach here, and the transportation of medicinal materials has been paralyzed, and even if we wanted to, we could not order it. β
Seeing that there was still a glimmer of hope, Liu Jianming hurriedly asked: "Shopkeeper, do you know where benzoin origins?" β
"This ......" the old man shook his head, "We don't know the specific address of the herb shop, and we don't have the right to know, if you want to inquire about the place of origin, you have to find the 'big man'." β
"Big shots?"
Liu Jianming nodded as if he didn't understand.
At this moment, a familiar greeting suddenly came from upstairs: "Ali?!" β
Liu Jianming followed the prestigeββ
It's the little pony brother with a middle part.
"Hahaha! Ali, is it really you!? Brother Ma was very happy, ran down the stairs in three steps and two steps, hugged Liu Jianming's shoulders and laughed.
"What? You two know each other? The old man looked confused.
"Of course, he's my best buddy." Brother Xiao Ma patted Liu Jianming's shoulder and introduced to the old man: "Second uncle, his name is Ali, and he helped a lot when he was on Hong Kong Island, without him, I don't know how many times I would have died." β
He introduced the old man to Liu Jianming again: "Ali, this is the uncle I mentioned to you before, he is my second uncle, Uncle Song." β
