203: I suspect there are drugs inside.
Of course he wanted them. Could he not tell the difference between real and fake cigarettes? If he found out they were fake while smoking them, he could just throw them away without losing anything. The key was that he was in the livestream room right now, with tens of thousands of people watching. If he kept them for himself, wouldn't that be utter nonsense?
But he really wanted them~ Golden Leaf, 100 per pack~
"Let's gather them up first and send them to the Police Station later~" Gao Xiaofan said reluctantly.
As for whether the boss lost them, what did that have to do with him? From the education he received since he was a child, if you find something, you should hand it over to the police.
Most importantly, the boss's attitude just now had disgusted him~
Qiu Gu hesitated to speak; boy, this guy was also getting a bit worked up.
After all, it was spiritual sustenance, and the top-tier kind at that. Which smoker could resist this kind of temptation~
Nevertheless, Qiu Gu nodded and jogged toward the car. In a moment, he ran back carrying a fertilizer bag. The bag that previously held corn could certainly fit a box of cigarettes. As for the original cardboard box, it was already in tatters.
Gao Xiaofan held the Gimbal, watching Qiu Gu continuously pack things up. Li Yuer watched for a while and then, finding it boring, ran back to her fishing spot to fish.
"Phew, exactly fifty cartons." Qiu Gu finished packing, straightened up, and said with a pant.

"Hey!!! What the hell are you guys doing!!!"
...Guo Shu's mood wasn't very pretty. The fact that he closed his doors yesterday seemed to have spread through the Angler circle, resulting in only three people coming today. One of them even tried to sneak in, only wanting to pay the fishing fee for two people.
However, it seemed that person had a point; that young man's left arm appeared to be broken, which was indeed inconvenient.
But what did that have to do with me? I'll handle things according to the rules, and this money will just go into my own pocket.
After enjoying the air conditioning in the room for a while, Guo Shu glanced at the main gate and couldn't help but sigh. There was still not a soul. On a normal day, there would be at least ten people, so why was there no movement today?
Guo Shu shook his head and walked out of the house, planning to contact the salvage crew. As soon as he stepped out, he saw those three Anglers huddled together, doing who knows what.
Did they catch a big fish?
Guo Shu couldn't help but walk over there. As he got closer, he frowned.
It wasn't a fish. What were those long strips on the ground~
When he was almost there, seeing the white strips scattered all over the ground, Guo Shu was completely shocked.
Isn't this my Golden Leaf that fell into the water!!!
Guo Shu was still dazed until all the cigarettes were packed into the fertilizer bag. Only then did he react and roar.
"Hey!!! What the hell are you guys doing!!!"
Guo Shu shouted while running. These robbers—no wonder they looked unfamiliar—it turned out they were here for his cigarettes. But where did they get this news?
It seemed that the next rendezvous—bah, gift-giving—would have to be even more hidden.
Hearing the roar from behind, Gao Xiaofan and Qiu Gu subconsciously turned to look. Qiu Gu still had a harvest-time smile on his face, and in Guo Shu's eyes, that was the joy of a thief after a successful heist.
"Put those cigarettes down for me! These cigarettes are mine!"
Guo Shu ran over and prepared to snatch them, but Qiu Gu didn't give an inch, staring at him with wide eyes.
"You say they're yours, so they're yours? We fished these out of the river!"
The boss's lack of flexibility earlier had already made Qiu Gu feel uncomfortable. Now, this boss wouldn't even say a single nice word, had a terrible attitude, and came up trying to snatch things. This was ridiculous.
Stared at by Qiu Gu, Guo Shu couldn't help but look at Qiu Gu's sturdy build and felt a bit intimidated. But when he thought about how his cigarettes were worth tens of thousands, his confidence returned.
"How could they not be mine! This Fishing Ground is mine, so naturally everything in the water is also mine. I accidentally dropped them into the water before!"
Hearing this, Qiu Gu was a bit troubled and turned to look at Gao Xiaofan.
Seeing Qiu Gu remain silent, Guo Shu felt even more confident and continued to shout.
"What, in broad daylight, are you trying to steal things?"
Gao Xiaofan frowned. He could tolerate it once or twice, but was this boss out of his mind? If he had just said something nice, it wouldn't have been impossible to give the cigarettes to him.
Any normal person would be grateful to someone who helped them get tens of thousands of dollars worth of items out of the water. Even waiving the fishing fees for the three of them wouldn't be out of the question.
"Boss, you must be joking. You said it yourself: whatever we fish up, we can take away. You said those words yourself, didn't you~"
Guo Shu was angered into a laugh upon hearing this and looked at Gao Xiaofan: "Young man, you're joking, right? You can take away any fish you catch, but I never said you could take away cigarettes you fish up."
Gao Xiaofan wasn't annoyed either. He smiled and continued.
"Heh, Boss, didn't you fail to make that clear? Most importantly, how can you prove these are yours?"
After saying that, Gao Xiaofan handed the phone in his hand to Qiu Gu. Qiu Gu took it with one hand while firmly grasping the fertilizer bag with the other.
"Then what do you mean? You're going to act like a rogue? You're just not going to return them?"
Guo Shu could no longer hold back. His voice grew higher and higher until it was a bit hysterical.
"Do you know how much these cigarettes cost? Can you afford to smoke them? Do you have the life to keep them!"
Gao Xiaofan wasn't annoyed after hearing this. There was no need to tell him whether he could afford them or not. He turned and waved at Qiu Gu.
"What do I want these cigarettes for? I'm handing them over to the police~"
Gao Xiaofan took the phone from Qiu Gu and spoke while dialing 110.
"Is there something wrong with you? These are my things. Why are you calling the police!"
Guo Shu frowned. Calling the police was not a good thing. If it led to something else being uncovered, it would be a huge problem.
After all, he was a cautious man!
"Oh, I suspect these are fake cigarettes, or maybe there are even drugs hidden inside, so calling the police is the best option."
Gao Xiaofan wasn't in a hurry at all and spoke with a smile. Beside him, Qiu Gu couldn't help but burst out laughing. He was too wicked.
In the livestream room, comments were appearing one after another.
"Hahaha, I'm dying. Serves him right! This boss deserves to be disgusted."
"Brother Wo Zi is too awesome. Suspecting there are drugs—he's stunned me~"
"Do you think there might really be some inside~ Brother Wo Zi's mouth has been blessed~"
Watching the young man in front of him calmly describing the situation to the 110 operator, Guo Shu's teeth itched with hatred.
Until Gao Xiaofan hung up the phone, Guo Shu still hadn't thought of a good solution.
Gao Xiaofan handed the phone back, glanced at the comments, and couldn't help but smack his lips.
Damn it, if I'd known, I would have changed my title. I'd teach the boss a lesson and let him know what it means for every word to become law.
