Chapter 141 Lin Wancen
On the day before the end of the month, someone from the escort agency came to pick up the prepared sauce.
The woman who came before also came this time, but the man did not come. Instead, she was replaced by a serious middle-aged man with steady steps and a sword on his waist.
When leaving the order information, the woman left her name, Lin Wancen, which sounded very nice.
Xu Si brought two jars of sauce that he had prepared yesterday from the kitchen and placed them on the counter.
With subsequent orders, the labels on the sauce jars were gradually improved. In addition to the brand name and type, the production date and recommended consumption period were also written.
Before Lin Wancen could make a move, the man took away both jars of sauce.
Randomly said in a deep voice, "I can carry it all. I have things to do when I get back. I won't have dinner with you. I'm leaving first."
Lin Wancen nodded, her ponytail swaying, and said, "Uncle Chen, take care."
Seeing Xu Si was a little confused, she explained embarrassedly, "I plan to have lunch here later before going back. Today we have sweet and sour pork tenderloin, which I love very much. It is sour and sweet, the taste is just right, and there is a lot of meat. The ones in other places are either too sour or too sweet. Otherwise, when I come back from escorting, I don't know when I can eat it again."
Anyway, cooking was none of Xu Si's business. There was still half an hour before the meal was served, so she invited Lin Wancen to sit down and started chatting. "Does it take so long to carry out a convoy?"
"Yes, at least half a month at the shortest and at most half a year at the longest." Lin Wancen was very emotional.
"Where do you usually go then?"
"It depends on the customer's requirements. If it's close, it's the provincial capital, then the capital, and if it's farther away, it's the wealthy areas in the south."
As for why the nearby county town is not mentioned, generally speaking, since the distance is so close, there is basically no danger. Everyone will call some acquaintances to escort the goods together, so there is no need to spend money to find an escort agency.
"Then you must have been to many places?" Xu Si was a little envious.
While making money, going on a escort trip is equivalent to traveling.
Unlike when she was working before and had no time, when she had holidays to go out and play, the tickets and accommodation were expensive, especially when everyone was trying to go out at the same time, there were crowds of people everywhere. It didn't seem like she was going to see the scenery, but rather to see people.
In the end, she didn't go to many places, which is a great pity.
Now that she has traveled through time, transportation is even more inconvenient. She doesn’t know if she will have the chance to go out again in the future.
Lin Wancen also confided with great interest, "Almost. I have seen the sun, moon and stars, walked across mountains, rivers, lakes and seas, experienced the scenery outside the Great Wall, and also been to the desert and climbed snow-capped mountains."
When she talked about it, her face was full of smiles, her eyes were shining, and she looked bright and free. She was very satisfied with her current life.
Xu Si also revealed some longing in his eyes as he listened, and he imagined various scenes in his mind as she narrated.
Lin Wancen's voice became a little higher. "I never knew there were so many magical things in this world, such as waterfalls that seem to flow from the sky, springs that bend into a crescent, and colorful mountains."
If she had not been born in the escort agency and became an escort through her own efforts, she would never have had such an experience.
Perhaps like most women, they are trapped in the place where they have lived since childhood, find some work, get married and have children when they grow up, and take care of the housework, and they are tied down tightly.
She was glad that she could live another life, but she also felt powerless and a little sad for other women.
She could only take care of herself, practice martial arts every day, and not fall behind her fellow brothers. As the only woman in the escort agency, she worked harder than others.
"It's amazing," Xu Si pursed his lips, finding it hard to imagine what it looked like.
"If you have the chance, go out and take a look." Lin Wancen sincerely hoped.
Xu Si nodded, but he was not sure whether he would have this opportunity.
The journey is uncomfortable and dangerous. What if bandits show up? It’s better to stay where you are until you have a safe way out.
She mentioned another thing, "I saw that the man traveling with you used a knife, the young man who came with you last time used a sword, and you used a whip. Does everyone in your escort agency have their own weapon?"
"Is this what you are talking about?" Lin Wancen patted the whip at his waist, took it off and handed it to Xu Si.
Xu Si touched it carefully and found that the whip was thicker than his finger, and it was impossible to see how long it was when it was folded up.
"This is the coming-of-age gift my father gave me. It's been three years now and it's worn out a lot." Lin Wancen looked at the whip with gentle eyes.
"In addition to these three, my other brothers also use meteor hammers, spears, and axes. You can use whichever one is best for you. After all, going out is a life-threatening task, so it's better to be safe."
Xu Si couldn't help but praise, "It's amazing. If I use this whip, I will probably beat myself to death."
"Haha, not really, but it does hurt. When I first started learning, I got beaten all over. Once I mastered the technique, it got much better."
Seeing Xu Si's admiring eyes, Lin Wancen also felt a little proud, "How about I play a trick on you?"
"Okay, okay," Xu Si said in surprise. Considering that there might be guests outside the door, "Come to our backyard."
Lin Wancen stood under the osmanthus tree, holding a whip in her hand, and swung it hard, stretching out like a long snake. With her every move, the whip broke through the air, sometimes like a sword, sometimes like a hook, sometimes like a bow, and occasionally hit the ground, leaving deep whip marks.
Hearing the sound, others came out and watched from the side, not daring to get closer.
Qi Ning pulled Xu Si's sleeve, his eyes wide open, and exclaimed from time to time.
When Lin Wancen withdrew her hand, the whip seemed to have a spirit and returned to her hand. Everyone applauded and cheered.
"Sorry for the poor performance." Unlike the compliments from fellow students, it always felt a bit like showing off when I performed a trick in front of others.
After everyone left, Xu Si walked up to her and gave her a thumbs up, "You are such a heroine."
"That's not the case. I just make a living. And the whip can't kill the enemy, it can only hurt the enemy. It's mainly used to protect yourself."
So when encountering an emergency, she usually sweeps a large area and her senior brothers help her finish off. To be honest, she has never killed anyone because she is too well protected.
"Can't a whip kill people?" Xu Si had never thought about this question. Logically speaking, if you whip someone too much, they will bleed to death.
Lin Wancen explained, "Most of the people who come out to rob are gangs. I can't just chase after one person and beat him up."
"What about putting a whip around a man's neck and strangling him to death?"
Lin Wancen had never used this method before. What was the difference between this and using a rope? It had nothing to do with the whip techniques she had learned. But it seemed to give her a new idea, and she was somewhat thoughtful.
