Chapter 1130: Chapter 1130: Caught Red-Handed

After swaying in the car for an hour, they finally arrived at the station.

As soon as Qin Fen got off the bus, An Ping saw someone pushing an empty tricycle, loading his vegetables basket by basket onto it.

Qin Fen jumped onto the tricycle too and headed in the opposite direction of the bus station.

An Ping wondered where they were going now.

So, he also stopped a tricycle, gave the driver a dollar, and asked him to chase the tricycle ahead.

Through twists and turns in the alleys, half the day passed before the vehicle ahead finally stopped.

An Ping got off and watched from a dark corner to see what they were going to do.

He discovered it seemed like some sort of vegetable wholesale point.

Many people were coming and going.

Qin Fen unloaded more than half his household’s fresh vegetables and actually sold them to the people at the wholesale point.

Then he bought a batch of not-so-fresh vegetables at a low price and mixed them with his own fresh vegetables.

The difference he earned, he just pocketed into his own pocket.

Then someone helped him carry the vegetables back to the bus station.

He stepped onto the bus heading to the military base.

An Ping panicked, knowing it would be a disaster if this batch of vegetables was delivered to the military.

So he hurried over, and just as another vehicle arrived, he quickly bought a ticket and got on.

He too was headed towards the military base.

This time, he had to stop this batch of problematic vegetables.

When Qin Fen delivered the vegetables to the entrance of the military base, he went to find the sentinel to make a call to the military canteen, An Ping got off the vehicle and blocked Qin Fen at the entrance of the military compound.

"An Ping, how come you’re here?" When he saw An Ping, a flicker of panic crossed Qin Fen’s face.

An Ping ignored him, stepped forward quickly, and pulled back the cloth covering the vegetable baskets, revealing a basket of wilted, not fresh vegetables.

"An... An Ping... what are you doing?" Qin Fen stammered.

"Where are the vegetables?" An Ping grabbed his collar, his eyes wide with anger as he glared at him.

"This..." Qin Fen was at a loss for words.

"I’m asking you where the vegetables are!!!" An Ping shouted.

Qin Fen was startled by the shout, and after several unsuccessful attempts to push An Ping away, he said, "Let me go."

"Let you go! Fine!" An Ping replied, and then he let go of Qin Fen.

As Qin Fen was adjusting his collar, An Ping, through gritted teeth, threw a punch at his cheek.

Unprepared, Qin Fen fell to the ground.

"What are you doing!!" Suddenly struck, Qin Fen became angry, quickly got up from the ground, and grabbed An Ping’s clothing, starting a physical altercation with him.

The sentinel at the entrance of the military base hurried over to stop them both.

He then made a call to the chief of staff’s office.

By the time Qin Jian arrived, both men had bruises on their faces and their clothing was covered in dirt, looking as disheveled as could be.

"What is going on with you two?" Qin Jian scanned them both, his deep voice carrying an air of authority.

Qin Fen and An Ping instinctively stood straight, their heads bowed before Qin Jian.

"I’m talking to you two. Have you both become mute?" It was such a disgrace that his brother and brother-in-law were fighting right up to the entrance of the military base!

"Brother-in-law, just look for yourself!" An Ping stepped forward, uncovered all the vegetable baskets, "This morning’s vegetables were just picked from the garden, I, my sister, my father, so many people saw it, the vegetables were very fresh, picked from the best in the garden. And now?"

Qin Jian glanced at the vegetables in the baskets, his gaze intense as he stared into Qin Fen’s eyes with an angry voice, "Where have the original vegetables gone!"
