Chapter 62
…… Are we in Somalia?
Hello friends outside, don't you rest in the middle of the night, does the director pay overtime?
You're actually going to be the man of One Piece, right?
The complaint couldn't help but pop up, and then Xie Yiying laughed twice: "Where do you think I can hide?" ”
As soon as Liu Yuan heard about it, he was in a hurry to find Xie Yiying, and he didn't bother to think about specific questions, and when he heard her say at this time, he pondered for a moment and said, "You go to the cargo hold first to be wronged." ”
The cargo hold, which is at the bottom of the hold, can hold the cargo and control the draft.
The ship they were on was a large one, so there was room for one or two people to hide in the cargo hold, in addition to the luggage and vegetables that had been loaded.
However, the position of the cargo hold is obvious, if the pirates come on the ship to grab it, they will never miss the cargo hold, and if there is a battle and the ship is sunk, how can they get out from that position in the cargo hold?
Xie Yiying imagined it for a moment, and shook her head calmly: "I'd better live and die with you." ”
The fleet of pirates seems to have been very close, the shadows of torches can be seen outside the window, and there are guards outside shouting to the waiter, looking for someone to discuss countermeasures with him, Liu Yuan responded, and finally explained to Xie Yiying: "I will try to avoid using force, you don't be afraid, but you still have to hide in the house and don't make a sound." If there is a war...... I'll arrange for you to leave in advance. Then he left in a hurry.
Xie Yiying stood in place and thought about it, and felt that what Liu Yuan said still made sense. Knowing that the situation was urgent, he didn't delay, wrapped the quilt on the bed and stuffed it into the wardrobe, put the utensils on the table in order, dressed up as an uninhabited scene in the house, and then stared at the bed and pondered: Where to hide.
At this time, someone suddenly pushed the door in, scared Xie Yiying enough, and almost picked up the guy and smashed it at the person, Luluo was also startled when she saw her posture, and took a step back and leaned against the door: "Madam, what are you going to do." ”
Seeing that it was a pothos, Xie Yiying looked sad, and turned the hairpin in his hand back to him.
…… And it's still necessary to hide from two people.
What she saw outside was the guards running around, their expressions stern and nervous, while the boatmen hid in groups, saying things that others couldn't understand. The latter scares Pothos even more than the former, especially the "pirates" who keep entering her ears, "the ship has come closer" and "there is no way". She finally grabbed a slightly more familiar guard and asked him what was going on, and the man replied in a hurry: "If you meet a pirate, take your young lady to avoid it." ”
The little girl was so frightened that she hurriedly ran back to the room in the turmoil of the hull and wanted to run away with Xie Yiying, although she didn't know where to run.
As a result, as soon as I entered the door, I saw Xie Yiying's appearance, but later the table Xiàn was very calm and calm, and the green pothos admired it, ah, it is worthy of being my wife, you look at this look, it is much better than those men outside.
Unbeknownst to her, her wife was thinking about how to stuff her into the cupboard.
The hull of the ship suddenly shook again, probably another ship crashed into it, Xie Yiying knew that she couldn't think about it anymore, so she had to go and blow out the candle on the table first.
As a result, just as she took two steps over there, the two windows were suddenly opened, and the fast wind blew Xie Yiying's forehead, and she felt that the window sash was almost brushed against her forehead.
When I looked up, I saw a figure half-crouching on the window frame, and then jumped into the room in the blink of an eye.
Xie Yiying's first reaction was to turn around and cover the mouth that the pothos was about to scream.
At such a close distance, if you call it out, there is almost no other fate to consider except being killed and killed.
When I entered the house, I found that the person was still a woman. Dressed in black, with long hair tied high. The candle flame flickered, and the two looked at each other for a moment, and their gratitude was reflected:
"This girl, you...... It looks familiar. ”
The pothos mouth was covered and could only blink, Madame, don't hook up with the little girl at this time, okay.
It turned out that this person was really an acquaintance.
It was the proprietress of MI6 who was sent to Yuezhong Restaurant, who couldn't cook, but she could cut cucumbers and dance eight knife flowers.
"Yo," Xie Yiying was in a relaxed mood after recognizing that it was an acquaintance, "This is a side hustle?" I remember that I give a lot of money to six places every month, or I can't support you? ”
Xie Yiying accepted the transformation from a coquettish boss lady to a cold-blooded killer very smoothly, but the boss lady looked a little embarrassed: "The subordinates have disturbed Mrs., I hope Mrs. will atone for her sins." Then he gave a quick explanation of why.
There was a merchant in the six places who wanted to be killed, and there was something important in the man's hands, in order to avoid startling other snakes by hitting this grass, after finding out the trend of the merchant's itinerary for several days, he was scheduled to pretend to be a pirate today, go on the ship to seize the goods, and cut the grass and eradicate the roots.
As soon as I left, I ran into Liu Yuan's boat halfway through. A pair of clues on the two sides, only to find out, isn't this the ship where Mrs. is?!
If you avoid it at this time, the play will be incomplete, and if you don't avoid it, who will dare to rob your master?
Xie Yiying listened to it, understood the reason, and knew that the situation was urgent, and if he rubbed for a while, it might really start to fight over there, so he no longer amused people, and ordered: "If you want, I'll pay the money, don't fight." ”
The proprietress clenched her fists, and Liso flipped out of the window again.
"Tut-tut," Xie Yiying watched the person's back disappear into the night, "Look at the person's skills, which one is married and must not be afraid of domestic violence." ”
There was nothing to consider for her, and the money placed on her ship was moved to the ship in six places, which was equivalent to going from her left pocket to her right pocket.
So, the bow of the boat carried out a "Lao He who eats Piaozi money", "Flowing Moon Wang Zezhong, God Opens His Feet", "Pheasant Stuffy Head Drill, How Can You Go to Tianwang Mountain!" "There is rice on the ground, hey, there is a foundation!" After a friendly exchange of black words, he finally got to the point.
The other party opened his mouth and asked for a thousand taels of silver.
It's impossible to open your mouth to refuse a thousand taels here! Ordinary people go home to visit their relatives, who can carry so much silver with them!
The two sides bargained, and finally set 800 taels.
"Eight hundred taels! Cash! No silver tickets! ”
At this time, Liu Yuan also saw that there was a rush to run, and there was a veteran on the boat, guessing that the other party must have a life lawsuit in his hand, so he immediately slowed down, stuck the beat, and then lowered the price.
This side is not in a hurry, of course the other party is in a hurry, and he is afraid that the government will catch up with him, so he has to grit his teeth and agree.
Five hundred taels of silver is the transaction price.
Five hundred taels, buy a peace, absolutely no loss. Before entering Yangzhou, Liu Yuan didn't want to conflict with people here, and was about to order someone to get the money, but Xie Yiying had already sent someone to carry the box over.
When I opened it, it was full of bright and clear silver, and there was a faint light in the moonlight.
This is naturally Xie Yiying's money, but in front of outsiders, it is impossible for Liu Yuan's cousin to go out with so much silver, just pretending to be from Liu Yuan's pocket, as for whether he pays the money himself or is reimbursed by the officials, it all depends on him.
It was not until the early morning of the next day that they received the news that a merchant had been killed on the same river last night because he had angered the pirates.
Only then did I understand why the thief from the boat only got a mere 500 taels yesterday and left in a hurry. At the same time, he also reflected that he was actually passing by such an executioner with blood on his hands, and he couldn't help but look at each other and be afraid.
