Ye Qing's plan is indeed similar to what Su Peng said, what he wants is to release the news while arranging people to salvage the sunken ship, find those missing brothers, and then find a way to find out the water ghosts and avenge them.

However, this kind of thing is not allowed by Su Peng.

Because the big ship is related to the matter of the bureaucratic case, even if the big ship is really done by the water ghost, then it must be proved that it was really the water ghost who did it, and then he can act like this.

Prior to this, Su Peng would never allow Ye Qing to make his own decisions, and the whole thing must be carried out under the promotion of the yamen.

"Ye Qing, the time you have been in Bingzhou, no, the time you have been begging for a life on the Fen River, not thirty years, but more than twenty years, right?"

Ye Qing didn't know why, frowned and said, "Until this year, it will be twenty-two years. ”

"Okay, then let me ask you, in the past twenty-two years, have you ever encountered a water ghost on the Fen River?"

There have always been no water ghosts in the Fen River, and at most, there are just a few small water thieves. Water thieves are different from water ghosts, water ghosts seek money and kill people, and water thieves are just seeking money.

In the past, the Ye family's ship had also encountered water thieves, but it could be solved with a few dollars.

Moreover, the water thieves on the Fen River, to put it bluntly, are just fishermen begging for a living along the way, because they have no money to live because of the flood, so they go to the river to do some business without capital.

Giving them money is not much different from giving alms to beggars on the street.

Otherwise, how did the little water thief on the Fen River hijack the Ye family's boat.

Having said that, Ye Qing still frowned and said, "I'm not afraid of anything else, I'm afraid that it's from Huainan." ”

It is true that what Ye Qing said also makes sense. However, this kind of thing can only be determined after it has been verified.

"Even if it's from Huainan, but those water ghosts in Huainan, don't you know that your Ye family's ship is empty? Before it opened, it caused a lot of deaths, and in the whole world, have you heard of whose water ghost would act like this? ”

As soon as Su Peng said this, Ye Qing couldn't help muttering a little in his heart.

Indeed, the water ghost is trying to make money and kill his life to set up a signboard, but he has not made money at the moment, but his life is out, and it is not like a means of setting up a signboard.

Just when Ye Qing hesitated, Su Peng continued: "Ye Qing, you have been in Bingzhou for decades, and you can be said to be more familiar with Bingzhou than several of us.

However, have you forgotten that there have always been sailors entrenched in Bingzhou, so there are no water ghosts. In the past few decades, the water ghosts in Huainan and Jiangnan have not dared to come over, why, as soon as your Ye family's big ship went out, you recruited them? ”

After speaking, Su Peng sighed and said, "This matter is far from being as simple as you think. ”

Ye Qing finally agreed with Su Peng's statement at this time, and just wanted to sit down, he heard Su Peng say: "Don't sit, go out with me." ”

To Di Renjie's surprise, the place where Su Peng took everyone turned out to be the Ye family's wharf.

After arriving at the dock, without waiting for Ye Qing to ask, Su Peng directly ordered Ye Qing to prepare a boat.

After everyone got on the boat, Su Peng directly instructed Wang Laosan to show the way and go to the shipyard of the sailor.

It was precisely because he was going to the Sailor Shipyard that Su Peng insisted on taking Wang Laosan, who was a little restless.

In general, the water division is under the jurisdiction of the free water division. However, because the Bingzhou Naval Division was mainly used to build inland river boats, it belonged to the commander of the Bingzhou Thorn History.

Of course, Su Peng has never interfered much in the affairs of the Sailor Shipyard.

It may be precisely because of this that the people in the shipyard have no suspicion with Su Peng. Seeing Su Peng bring people over, the officers and soldiers of the Navy Division were only a little surprised.

When the captain of the Navy Division saw Su Peng coming in person, he hurriedly greeted him and greeted him with a smile: "Why did Lord Thorn Shi have time to come to me today, didn't he come to eat fish?" ”

Su Peng chuckled lightly and returned: "There's no hurry to eat fish, let's go in first and talk about it." ”

After a few people entered the room, the guests and hosts sat down, and Su Peng said: "This is Di Renjie, the new Fa Cao of the Bingzhou Mansion, and Captain Liu should not have seen it yet." ”

Di Renjie hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

Captain Liu waved his hand and said with a smile: "Don't be polite when you join the army, my captain is just an idle military attaché, and I can't do a lot." ”

"Ye Qing, I think I should be old acquaintances with Captain Liu." Su Peng continued.

Captain Liu nodded, and said hello to Ye Qing. Then he looked at Su Peng, and his face was full of puzzlement.

As if he hadn't seen it, Su Peng pointed to Wang Laosan who was standing aside and said, "This is the person I borrowed from you." ”

It's just one person, but Su Peng has made such a big battle, which is a little strange.

But seeing Wang Laosan's appearance of squeezing his eyebrows and having palpitations there, Captain Liu understood that things were not so simple.

After a moment's hesitation, he retreated. In the whole room, except for him and Wang Laosan, there were only a few people brought by Su Peng.

"Thorn History, we don't say secret words, if there is anything, you can just say it. But what did Wang Laosan do to you? ”

Su Peng nodded and said, "Wang Laosan, say it yourself." ”

According to Su Peng's statement, Wang Laosan immediately told the story of what he and the Ye family's big ship had gone to Wanzhou and encountered on the way back from Wanzhou.

Except for Wang Laosan, when he talked about the shipwreck, Captain Liu opened his mouth to ask a few words, and he didn't say a word during the period.

After being silent for a long time, Su Peng asked, "What do you think?" ”

"It's not a water ghost." Captain Liu frowned and said.

"How?"

"To put it simply, water ghosts don't do this kind of business. Moreover, the position of the chisel was not right. According to Wang Laosan, the middle of the bottom of the boat was chiseled, which is an extremely irresponsible chisel method.

Because after the middle is broken, the hull will soon sink if it leaks, which is not in line with the practice of water ghosts.

As is the custom of the water ghosts, they do not allow the place where the ship sinks too close to the place where they are moving. So, they're going to strike at both ends. Make sure the boat can sail some distance after it has been scuttled......"

Among the people present, out of Captain Liu, only Wang Laosan and Ye Qing are familiar with things on the water.

After Wang Laosan and Ye Qing stopped Captain Liu's statement, the expressions on their faces were somewhat agreeable. Especially Ye Qing, after being persuaded by Su Peng, he had already discovered that this matter might not be so simple.

However, on this occasion, Ye Qing did not speak first. Instead, Su Peng opened his mouth first and asked, "In this way, is it very likely that it was not done by the water thieves?" ”

Captain Liu nodded.

"Okay." Su Peng said yes, and then said: "Since this is the case, then this matter is a little troublesome......
