Chapter 98 A Miraculous Manifestation: One Phone Call, and an Armored Truck Delivers Money

Xu Xing smiled and shook his head after hearing his second uncle's words: "Second Uncle, I appreciate your kindness, but two million is not a lot of money for me right now."

He spoke casually, but his tone was full of confidence.

The second and third uncles exchanged a glance, both seeing a hint of surprise in each other's eyes.

Second Uncle stroked his beard and tentatively asked, "Xiao Xing, you're not just bragging, are you? Two million is no small sum, and you've only been in Chang'an for a short time..."

Xu Xing smiled and didn't explain further. Instead, he took out his phone and dialed the bank's private account manager.

"Hello Mr. Xu, how may I help you?"

"Manager Li, I urgently need two million in cash. Could you deliver it to me today?"

Xu Xing cut to the chase and asked.

There was a two or three-second silence on the other end of the phone, followed by Li Ming's calm voice: "Mr. Xu, could you please tell me your exact location? Let me check our nearest dispatch route."

Xu Xing reported the address of Xujia Village.

The sound of typing came from Li Ming's end. After about ten seconds, he said, "Mr. Xu, I checked and we happen to have an armored truck that is leaving from the Jingyang County branch this afternoon to collect money from nearby township bank branches."

The truck was empty when it set off, and it happened to pass by your village, Xujia Village, on the way. I arranged for them to detour to your village on their way to collect the money and deliver it there. It should take about two hours to get there.

"Thank you, Manager Li."

Xu Xing's tone carried a hint of satisfaction.

"No trouble at all, it's our duty. Please wait a moment while I arrange the dispatch. The security guard will contact you once we arrive."

After Li Ming finished speaking, he added, "Mr. Xu, is there anything else you need?"

"No, thank you."

"Okay, have a nice day."

After hanging up the phone, Xu Xing put away his phone, smiled at his two uncles, and said, "It's all taken care of. It will be delivered in about two hours."

The second and third uncles looked at each other, their expressions showing a mixture of disbelief and doubt.

Second Uncle stroked his beard and hesitated before asking, "Xiao Xing, is that armored truck the kind that transports cash?"

"Yes, that kind."

Uncle San couldn't help but speak up: "Xiao Xing, don't joke with your uncle. That kind of thing isn't something you can just mobilize casually. You think you can just make a phone call and have someone send you two million in cash in an armored truck?"

Xu Xing smiled and didn't explain further, only saying, "Uncle, you two just wait patiently, you'll know when we get there."

The two elderly people exchanged a glance. Although they were still somewhat skeptical, they didn't say anything more when they saw Xu Xing's confident expression.

But being able to get a bank to dispatch an armored truck to deliver two million yuan in cash to the countryside with just one phone call is something that not everyone can do.

Has Xu Xing really struck it rich?

For the rest of the time, Xu Xing chatted with his two uncles for a while, and then helped his second aunt prepare lunch with Chen Xinyi.

Lunch was simple: a few common farm dishes, such as stir-fried cured pork with garlic sprouts, stir-fried seasonal vegetables, and a bowl of chicken soup, but the taste was very authentic.

Xu Xing ate with great relish, and Chen Xinyi also ate heartily without any sign of disgust, which made the two elderly people nod in approval.

After the meal, Xu Xing helped clear the dishes and then chatted with his two uncles in the courtyard over tea.

Time passed by, and with two hours almost up, the second uncle couldn't help but look towards the courtyard gate again and again.

Although Uncle San remained outwardly calm, he kept tapping his cane lightly on the ground, clearly indicating that he was also somewhat anxious.

Just then, a deep engine roar came from the direction of the village entrance.

The sound was different from that of a regular car engine; it had a deep and steady mechanical quality that was particularly clear in the quiet rural afternoon.

My second uncle suddenly stood up, leaned on his cane, and quickly walked to the gate of the courtyard, peering towards the direction of the village entrance.

Third Uncle also stood up and followed him to the door.

Xu Xing stood up unhurriedly, patted off non-existent dust from his trousers, and walked towards the courtyard gate.

From the direction of the village entrance, a white armored truck is slowly driving into Xujia Village.

The side of the vehicle is emblazoned with the words "XX Bank" and security markings, and a warning light is mounted on the roof, reflecting a blinding gleam in the sunlight.

The armored truck drove slowly along the narrow country road and finally stopped in front of my second uncle's house.

The engine shut off and the train doors opened. Two guards wearing bulletproof vests and helmets jumped out of the vehicle.

One of the guards was carrying a silver-gray metal briefcase, while the other was warily looking around with his hand on his holster.

This scene completely stunned the villagers of Xujia Village.

It was the afternoon, a time of leisure for farmers, and many villagers were chatting and enjoying the cool air in front of their homes. Everyone was stunned when they saw the armored truck drive into the village.

"Holy crap! An armored truck!"

"Why did you drive into our village?"

"Are they here to arrest someone?"

"Are you stupid?! Why would an armored truck arrest someone? They're obviously there to deliver money!"

"Give money? To whom?"

The sound of discussion rose and fell, and many villagers put down their work and gathered around the door of the second uncle's house.

The security guard carrying the metal case walked up to Xu Xing and first verified his identity: "Are you Mr. Xu Xing?"

"it's me."

Xu Xing nodded and showed his mobile banking profile.

The security guard placed the metal box on the engine compartment cover of the armored vehicle, entered the password to open the cover, revealing neatly stacked cash inside.

Bundles of brand-new 100-yuan bills gleamed with an alluring red luster in the sunlight.

"Mr. Xu, here is the two million in cash you requested. Please count and confirm."

The escort said respectfully.

Xu Xing casually picked up a few bundles of banknotes, flicked the seal on the corner with his finger to confirm that they were brand new banknotes sealed by the bank, and then roughly counted the number of stacks.

One bundle is worth 100,000, and there are 20 bundles in total; the numbers match.

He nodded and stood up: "No problem, thank you."

He took a pen out of his pocket, signed the handover form handed to him by the guard, and then took out his phone to call Manager Li: "Manager Li, I received the goods. Thank you for your help."

"You're welcome, Mr. Xu. Please feel free to contact me if you need anything."

Li Ming's voice remained respectful.

After hanging up the phone, Xu Xing nodded to the two guards: "Thank you for your hard work."

"It's not hard work, it's our job."

The two guards saluted him, then turned and got into the car.

The armored truck started its engine, slowly turned around, and drove out of Xujia Village along the route it had come from.

The villagers only snapped out of their daze when the taillights of the armored truck disappeared around the corner at the village entrance.

All eyes were focused on the open metal box at Xu Xing's feet.

The two million in cash inside the box shone brightly red in the sunlight.
