After the girl got on the merchant ship, Su Duchen thought that the ship was about to be pulled, but she saw the appearance of a steward from the ship, standing on the shore and looking left and right, it seemed that there was still something to do.

Su Duchen beckoned a guy to ask, first gave a piece of broken silver, and said, "Which master is that merchant ship, so angry." I've been sitting here for a long time, and I haven't finished moving my stuff yet. Moreover, there are more than a dozen little girls with the boat, and they are generous! ”

The guy pinched the broken silver, and said with a smile: "Hui Gongzi, this ship docked at the dock this morning, and then I saw the people on the boat get off the boat and go to the county to buy goods." The owner of the boat is surnamed Zhao, as for which master it is, the small one is really not clear. It's really a rich man, boxes of things, how much silver does it cost? Also, the little ones heard that they had ransomed a lot of women from Goolan Courtyard, and everyone said that these women wanted to be blessed! The man said it vividly, and his envy was palpable.

Ransom? Su Duchen sneered in his heart, and sighed on the surface: "What a great good person! Have there ever been other incidents in your county, such as missing cases, missing people, and so on. When I go to a new place, I like to talk to people and I'm curious about everything. ”

The guy thought about it very seriously for a while, then looked left and right very mysteriously, leaned over and whispered: "Yes, it is said that several little girls are missing." A few days ago, the drum of the county government was almost broken by the elders who lost their children. The past two days seem to have stopped, and it is estimated that it has been recovered. ”

Su Duchen nodded and said, "Thank you, you can go and get busy." ”

The guy smiled and said, "Yes, yes, the son has something to do, even if he is small." ”

How do I get on board? So many little girls are not easy to save, Su Duchen frowned and pondered.

An hour later.

The merchant ship was ready to sail out, and the steward turned to get on the ship, when someone behind him called.

"This gentleman, I don't know that Zhao Gongzi can be on the boat." This person, whose voice was magnetic and slightly lazy, smiled lightly and arched his hand.

The steward looked up and down, and the two people in front of him, one in a black robe and the other in a green robe. Although the color of the clothes is single, the fabric is expensive. It was a man in a black robe and a mask who spoke, and the steward wondered, who were these two people?

The steward looked at it and asked, "I don't know which son the two of you are?" Do you know our son-in-law? ”

Su Duchen had a smile on his face, and arched his hand: "The surname is Su, and the son next to him is surnamed Tang, a person from the capital." Traveling here, I happened to see the boat of Zhao Gongzi, who had been admired for a long time, and came to visit. "Humble and polite, at first glance, he is a child of a family.

The steward thought about it for a while, and felt that it was not good to offend him from the capital, so he hurriedly said: "Please wait a while, and the younger one will go in and return to our son-in-law." ”

"Shall we just go in like this? They have a boatload of men, can we fight? Tang Yunwen whispered.

"Who told you to fight? We're here to make friends, you know? You don't talk much, just laugh. Remember, act on the opportunist. Su Duchen said.

After a while, the steward came out and arched his hand: "My son-in-law invited the two sons to come on the boat." ”

Su Duchen turned sideways to the boatman and said, "You don't have to follow, just find a place to wait." ”

The boatman said respectfully, "Yes." ”

………………

The merchant ship has three floors, and Zhao Gongzi entertains guests in a luxuriously furnished cabin on the second floor.

"Su Gongzi, Tang Gongzi, Zhao is disrespectful, disrespectful." What does this Zhao Gongzi look like? Junlian once said: Good-looking people are unforgettable. Ugly people are impressive. Zhao Gongzi belongs to the latter, which is very profound, especially his pair of triangular eyes.

After greeting each other, they paused for a few seconds and said nothing, and the scene was a little awkward.

Su Duchen looked at Zhao Gongzi, who lowered his head very seriously, and personally made tea for guests, and took out a small square box from his arms with a light smile.

"Zhao Gongzi, I really don't want to take the liberty to visit. Please Zhao Gongzi smiled at this gadget. After speaking, Su Duchen pushed the small brocade box in front of him.

"The two sons are too polite. Come on, try my brewed tea. After speaking, Zhao Gongzi naturally picked up the box and opened the lid.

Zhao Gongzi's face was surprised, his eyes lit up, and he said happily: "What a beautiful golden lotus, this workmanship, this color, this texture, it is simply a must." Ah! The two of you are so gracious, this gift has won my heart, thank you very much! ”

"Haha-it's just a gadget, just take it as a meeting gift, just like Zhao Gongzi." Su Duchen said with a smile.

"Steward Chen, pass the word, and the ship will leave later." Zhao Gongzi waved his hand and said to the steward who was standing aside and waiting.

"This is not good, not good, how can you delay Zhao Gongzi's trip. Brother Tang and I were just passing by, came up to say hello, and left immediately. After Su Duchen finished speaking, he got up and was about to leave.

"No, it's not that I'm being rude, no. In this way, if it is convenient for the two of you, can you be willing to cruise the river with Zhao? Zhao Gongzi hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop.

"This ...... Brother Tang and I don't have anything to do, we just walk around casually. Wouldn't the cruise river disturb Brother Zhao, how embarrassing is this. Su Duchen looked embarrassed and waved his hand again and again.

"Then it's settled, stay and play for a few days. The boat goes to the next pier, and the two decide whether to continue the cruise or go overland. Zhao Gongzi waved his hand and said happily.

"It's really annoying Zhao Gongzi. Thank you! Su Duchen looked apologetic and arched his hand.

……………………

Su Duchen and Tang Yunwen were arranged into a spacious cabin.

"Why did you give such a good-looking golden lotus to that surnamed Zhao, it's really bad." Tang Yunwen said unhappily. Tang Yunwen, who was the first to pick the door in history, was worried about this.

Su Duchen glanced at him, this guy didn't bring much silver when he went out. As the name suggests, diligence and thrift are the virtues of the Tang family.

"Don't sleep too hard at night, act when you are young. Don't make a move when you see anything, so as not to startle the snake. Su Duchen said.

Tang Yunwen nodded and said, "Don't worry, I know." ”

At the beginning of the child.

In the cabin on the second floor, the left hand is the cabin prepared by Zhao Cheng for the guests, and the right hand is the cabin where the girl is kept. Each cabin is guarded, and if you want to get in, you have to stun the doorkeeper.

Cover the other person's mouth and nose with this cloth. Remember, the effect of the medicine is only for an hour. By the way, don't wipe your face with this. Su Duchen said.

Tang Yunwen glanced at me and said, "You treat me as stupid!" ”

stunned the two guards, Su Duchen entered the cabin, it was empty without any furnishings, and the little girl was lying on the ground, sleeping? Obviously not, they should have been drugged, a drug that can make people look sluggish, like marionettes.

The pendant on his chest flashed: "Fu Xiao, Zhao Cheng and someone are talking, do you want to come and see." ”

Su Duchen thought to himself: "Where is it?" ”

Pendant: "Deck." ”

Three quarters have passed.

Su Duchen bent his waist and came to the depression not far from the deck, lurking and eavesdropping.

After listening to two sentences, Su Duchen understood that Jun Lian didn't understand what he meant.

Xi people. It is the Xi people of the same vein as Beiqi.

Now the language of communication between the two is Chinese. In fact, most of the Beiqi and Xi people speak Chinese. Because for so many years, they have been eyeing the Central Plains, first of all, they must master the language of the Central Plains.

Su Duchen thought to himself: "These are the same people I saw before?" ”

Pendant: "This surname is not Zhao, the other is." They must have said curse words before, and I didn't understand them. Do you want to scare them by playing ghosts? The location is good, and they will go into the water as soon as they are scared. May I? The cautious Junlian held a grudge and said that he didn't understand something, which was simply a slap in the face. He's a good agent......

Su Duchen: "...... No. ”

Pendant: "Cut ......"

Ignoring Jun Lian no more, Su Duchen listened attentively to their conversation.

Zhao: "Go to the next dock and pick up another batch." ”

Man: "Well, you can rest for a while." ”

Zhao: "All the people?" ”

Man: "Almost, 160 people have been trained, that's enough." ”

Zhao: "Hehe...... Everyone's name is really the same. ”

Man: "It's a little longer, but it's worth it." You can only catch big fish if you put a long line. ”

Zhao: "Two or three years later, the backyard of the hundreds of officials of the Qiandi Dynasty will be all our people. Who said that women are useless, it is simply useful. Haha......"

Man: "I heard that you left a son from the capital on the ship?" ”

Zhao: "Hmm. Rest assured, they are two vassal and elegant sons. Look at this. ”

Man: "Mm-hmm, it's beautiful. It seems that they are two self-proclaimed and elegant, but in fact they are the sons of a simple family in Beijing. Hmph - when that day comes, I'm going to trample them all under my feet. ”

Zhao: "The general is right. ”

Man: "Don't worry, you won't be missing when it comes to rewarding meritorious deeds." Also, let your people be smart, none of those women are allowed to touch. ”

Zhao: "Yes. ”

………………

In the cabin.

"You're saying the captor is from the Northlands?" Tang Yunwen's eyes widened and said, "What are you doing with some girls in the Northland?" Could it be...... It's so damning! Tang Yunwen was so angry that he pounded the bed.

Whatever they do in the future, these girls must not be taken away now. Is there any way to wipe it all out? Su Duchen bit her finger and walked back and forth in the room. Just be ruthless! Su Duchen's expression turned fierce.

"Yunwen, come, let's ...... like this" Su Duchen said as he grabbed Tang Yunwen's ear.

"Why! No way! After Tang Yunwen listened, he jumped up in protest.

Su Duchen hugged his chest and said lightly: "Do you want to save them, do you want to become famous in a fight, do you want to ......?"

"Stop, stop." Tang Yunwen said indignantly: "Why is it not you, why is it me, hum-"

"Isn't it right that you carry out my idea? Or, you also want one now, and I'll carry it out. Besides, I'm so ugly, what about your sympathy, can you bear to make me uglier? Su Duchen continued to say lightly.

Tang Yunwen frowned, thinking about the feasibility of this plan, then sighed and said, "Can this be done?" ”

"If you don't try, you never know if you'll make it. We're in the dark, they're in the light, and the odds are pretty good. Su Duchen patted Tang Yunwen's shoulder and said.

After dawn.

Su Duchen and Tang Yunwen walked around the boat separately.

The third floor of the ship belonged to the coolies, and there were twelve boatmen, and they could not go to the second floor without permission. This group of people Su Duchen is not afraid, he plans to block the connecting passage first when the time comes, so that they can't come up.

Thirty-five girls were held in three cabins, each with a dozen people each. Eighteen guards were guarded in three shifts, changing shifts every half hour, and the same was true for night shifts.

There are six people on the first floor, who control the course, the sail mast and the winch. These six people, Su Duchen, planned to solve them first.

Zhao Cheng is a night owl, and even after his son, the cabin he is staying in is still brightly lit. Therefore, the task of pestering him was handed over to classmate Tang.

Tomorrow the ship is going to the docks, so - the plan is to execute it tonight.
