Chapter VIII: Trial (2)

After a long time, Tan Sheng raised his head and carefully examined the ship boss. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

This is the lowest cabin, it is dark, and the water dungeon is cold.

The boss of the boat was detained for half a night and another day, and he had already described himself as haggard, his cotton clothes were blistered and disshaped, his face was wrinkled, his jaw was narrow, the heavens were low, and his small eyes were gathered together, like two mung beans that were shining.

People with this kind of physiognomy are born without righteousness.

Tan Sheng held a wolf pen in his hand, his hand was crooked, and the tip of the pen was regularly knocked on the wooden case.

The sound of "knock knock" was not big or small, as if it was knocking on the hamstrings of the boat boss, knocking it, and the boat boss trembled.

After three minutes of knocking, Tan Sheng didn't say anything, and turned his head and instructed the steward, "Trouble the steward to drag him down and bring another person up." ”

"Do you want to bring someone with you?" asked the steward.

Tan Sheng smiled and said, "No, bring the shorter one up." Tan Sheng's eyes swept towards the boat boss, and said casually, "The little man's eyes are scattered, his lips are thin and his face is square, it can be seen that he loves money and is weak, and he is willing to say anything when he cheats." ”

The captain of the ship looked up sharply, his eyes were stunned, "Do you look at the face?"

Tan Sheng smiled, "Otherwise, how could I calculate that there are water thieves at night and abandon the ship in advance to save my life?"

The ship's boss's face changed drastically.

Tan Sheng turned his head, lifted the rice paper in his hand and raised it to the steward, and said in a flat voice, "When the time comes, I will say that this piece of paper is all the things that the ship boss spit out, but it hasn't been spit out yet, and I need to check with him - such as who instructed me, and how much silver I received." There was a sick eighty-year-old mother in the little man's house, and I pushed the silver towards him. Steward, do you think he said it or not?"

Thanksgiving to the water bandits and the boat boss's scolding fight.

I am grateful that I can understand Jiangxi dialect.

Thanks to her penchant for watching dramas.

Let her get so much information from the scolding of her mother one after another.

The steward was very clever and obedient, and he followed Tan Sheng's words, "It must be said." People are floating in the rivers and lakes, and how many of them preach morality? When the dwarf saw that the boss of the boat had opened his mouth, what kind of brotherhood did he care? In order to protect oneself, the beans must be poured into the bamboo tube. If he says it honestly, we won't send him to the official, and give him some silver to calculate the benefit fee. ”

Tan Sheng smiled, "Give some benefit money, just raise your hands." After a slight pause, he glanced at the boss of the boat again, "It's a pity that some people can't get it." ”

After listening to Tan Sheng's words, the boat boss looked at the piece of paper in Tan Sheng's hand, the water prison had no windows, and the candlelight shone dimly through the rice paper, and the rice paper was densely covered with words, which could be very mushy!

He couldn't have imagined that this little village girl would know that they had received money and had been instructed!

Wait, this little girl really figured it out?

But if she was cheating on him, how did she know that the little man loves money and that there is a sick old lady at home?

If the little man really thinks that he is relieved, according to the character of the little man, he will definitely spit it out!

When the time comes, the little man will go back to serve the old lady with the silver, what will he do!?

Really see the official, go to prison?

The ship's boss's eyes wandered, and his face was blue and white.

"Who said it wasn't to say?" Tan Sheng stretched out his hand, took a heavy burden from the steward's hand, and put it on the table with a "bang", revealing a corner, and there was white silver in it, "This cheap silver is very easy to take." ”

Tan Sheng no longer looked at the boat boss, turned his head and ordered, "Steward, let the little man come up." ”

The steward opened the door in response, and whispered to the little servant who was waiting at the door, and when he turned back, he closed the door heavily. Tan Sheng sat on the Taishi chair, his expression was extremely calm, and the wolf pen in his hand regularly tapped on the armrest, and the muffled sound was loud in the quiet water prison.

Suddenly, there was a rush of footsteps outside, and with a wave of Tan Sheng's hand, two servants came out of the queue and went to drag the arm of the boat boss.

"I said, I said, I know more than he does!"

Tan Sheng put his palm down, and the two servants immediately let go, and the boat boss threw himself to the ground with a "bang".

The captain asked, "Don't report to the official, the benefit fee... The girl didn't lie to me?"

Tan Sheng leaned forward slightly, his fingers were curled, his eyes were clear, and he asked softly, "Do you think I look like a liar?"

The boat boss raised his eyes and saw that she was just a little girl, although her style was good, but she was just a little girl, and the boat boss lowered his head.

Tan Sheng smiled and asked, "Are you a serious boatman?"

The boss of the boat had just hit the ground in the chest, and now he felt pain, "Yes..."

Except for the occasional side hustle in collusion with water bandits...

"Do you know who is going to kill me?" Tan Sheng slashed straight in.

The boat boss was stunned for a moment, then looked at the silver taels of white flowers on the table, and licked his chapped lips with his tongue, "I... I do not know... The Zhao family first looked for a boat at the wharf, and gave me two taels of silver saying that they were here to pick up the girl, you go back to Nanchang, although the money is not much, but it has come to the door, of course I want to take over this business. A few days later, two old wives came to me again, and as soon as they opened their mouths, they asked me if I wanted to kill someone..."

Tan Sheng's face was as usual, and he nodded slightly, letting the boat boss continue.

The boat boss licked his lips again, "They said, they all inquired clearly, I used to work with... Those few... Doing some business... They said it was business as usual... I will make a windfall and not be discovered by the government..."

This business is nothing more than killing people and making more money.

"The person Mrs. Zhao asked you to pick up, do you dare to do it as a business?" Tan Sheng interrupted, "I'm not afraid that the person you picked up is from an official family, and you can't eat sheep and get into trouble after the East Window incident?"

The boat boss snorted his neck, "Of course I'm afraid!"

Tan Sheng raised his eyebrows.

The boat boss's voice was weak, "But the woman said, girl, you are an old servant, and if you die, you will die, and the Zhao family will not pursue it more." At most, I will hide in Anyi County for three or two days, and when the wind passes, it will be the same if I come out again... Later I thought... If it is really a pick-up and drop-off lady, how can she casually look for a boat at the dock? What's more, she only gives two taels of silver..."

A girl from a serious official family, can get out of a boat for two taels of silver? Or a white-canopy boat that can't stretch out her arms to rent?

The ship's boss is very thoughtful.

Tan Sheng nodded, indicating that he could not refute it.

"So you took over this business again, ran a boat, and earned two dollars?" Tan Sheng pursed his lips and smiled.

The captain nodded hesitantly.

Tan Sheng was kind and seductive, "Are you responsible for connecting with the water bandits, and you are also responsible for distributing the spoils according to your work?"

The boat boss nodded again.

The boat boss is a second-class dealer, he eats both black and white, and when others find him, he wants to do a shady business, and he will find other people to help complete it, and make a difference in the middle.

Tan Sheng smiled again and asked, "On the dock in Jiangxi, there are many people like you?"

The flesh on the face of the boat boss trembled, and he was a little proud of his profession, "Not only can you run a boat, but you also have to eat both black and white, and there are not many such characters in the dock."

!”

Tan Sheng asked almost everything he wanted to know, his eyes when he looked at the boat boss instantly cooled, he slowly got up, put away the burden wrapped in silver taels on the table, stretched out his hand to hand it to the steward, and thanked him with a smile, "I'm tired of the old lady to lend out the silver." ”

The ship's boss had a big palpitation, his head seemed to have been knocked three times on the bench, and he suddenly woke up!

Damn it!

This little girl is not a dwarf at all!

It's obviously him who wants to cheat!

This dead girl has been pretending to be for so long, and it's obviously him who cheats!

The boss of the boat was instantly frightened, and he was pecked by the geese, and the dead girl gave him a dismount as soon as he came, and said that a few things made him disrupt, and then he was going to cheat the little man, and the soft and hard came together, so that he was both panicked, and was dazzled by the silver, and he was afraid of being robbed by the dwarf!

The most taboo thing is panic!

When you panic, you will follow others!

"Girl... Girl! I don't know how to read gold and jade, and I'm blinded by money! I'm guilty of being a little one!" The boat boss's hand scratched at the ground, and he hurriedly spoke, "Girl, you start to say that you don't lie to me!"

The god stick and the god stick use the heart, deceive the people, and take the money.

What is there to say about those who deceive by their own ability?

Tan Sheng had already opened the door a small slit, hearing him say this, he stood still, turned back halfway, and his side face was just encapsulated in the soft light of the gap, only to see the little girl smile contemptuously, her eyebrows were adjusted, her eyes were cold and mocking, and her words were soft.

"You're also in your thirties and forties, why are you so naΓ―ve? I said I wouldn't lie to you, so I really didn't lie to you?"
