In the morning, the Accord of Tingfeng Restaurant had already been booked for Qu Feipeng. In fact, there are few people who can use this Accord, and Qu Feipeng is one of them.

Gu Zixuan, the old shopkeeper of the Wind Restaurant, was originally a news door on the underworld, and the news that came and went passed from him, and he was an omniscient figure about the things in the rivers and lakes within a radius of five hundred miles. After getting old, Gu Zixuan gradually kept to himself, and finally gave up the position of the middleman leader on the underworld and opened a restaurant in Hangzhou. However, Gu Zixuan is still the leading figure of the underworld intermediaries around Hangzhou, and most of the news on the underworld is exchanged with him. The people who can use his few Accords to talk about business are all people who Gu Zixuan can still see, and Qu Feipeng is one of them.

On the side of the table, Qu Feipeng shook a paper fan and sat side by side with a man in black.

"Ah Xing," Qu Feipeng turned his head to look at the man in black beside him, "Do you really want to see that Ma Gongzi?" ”

The man in black had a hat on his head, and the black veil hanging down in front of him covered his face, and He Xinglan's voice came from behind the veil: "It's good to have three hundred taels of silver, and give Yoyo medicine every month, to say the least, you can get thirty or forty taels of silver." I would like to save a little for her as a dowry in the future......"

A look of surprise flashed in Qu Feipeng's eyes, he stared at He Xinglan for a long time, and suddenly bent down and laughed.

"What are you laughing at?" He Xinglan was surprised at first, and then asked angrily.

"Ah Xing," Qu Feipeng smiled as he leaned on the table and shook his head, "Your outfit is really ...... It's funny. ”

"You!" He Xinglan finally understood that he was laughing at his clothes, and was annoyed for a moment, and involuntarily raised his palm. With a backhand swing, he was going to hit him.

"Ouch. Other. Other. Qu Feipeng flashed sideways.

At this time, the door curtain banged, but it was Matthew Wen who had already arrived. Ma Xiuwen looked at the two of them, and was stunned for a moment, not knowing what to do. Qu Feipeng's dodging posture had not changed, and He Xinglan's fist also stopped in mid-air.

"Young Master Ma," Qu Feipeng straightened his clothes and said casually, "This is a relative in the next family." You don't have to shy away, please be seated. ”

Matthew sat down tremblingly, stood by his hands, and said in a low voice: "I'm just afraid of that incident......

"Okay," Qu Feipeng said as he drank tea, "Childe just gets straight to the point, and I just want to know the truth of that incident." What is done in the next is not a legitimate business, but it has its own rules, and I don't know the exact business, and I have never accepted it. ”

"Little ......," Matthew said. I can't afford any more money. ”

"It has nothing to do with the price, I just want to know why Ma Gongzi is interested in Wang Zhiwu's head." Qu Feipeng interrupted him.

"It's a long story......," Ma Xiuwen's eyes flashed with grief and indignation.

……

"How did my brother find here?" Qu Feipeng helped He Xinglan negotiate the deal. Zheng Zi breathed a sigh of relief and walked out of the Tingfeng Restaurant to the street, but he was surprised to find that his brother Qu Yunsong was waiting for him at the corner of the street.

"Introducing business to Ah Xing again?" Qu Yunsong smiled and asked softly.

"This is not the place to talk, find a place to sit." A hint of embarrassment appeared on Qu Feipeng's face.

The place Qu Feipeng found to sit was actually a small forest, and after making sure that there was no one here, only the two brothers, Qu Feipeng looked at his brother and asked straight to the point: "Brother still wants me to take over that business, right?" ”

"Yes, you have to take this business, and you have to take it if you don't take it." Qu Yunsong took out the golden ticket of five hundred taels of gold and stuffed it into his brother's arms.

"Brother......

"I won't talk nonsense, I'll just tell you three things, one of them: this is what Master Peng is determined to do, so he raised the honorarium and added it to five hundred taels of gold, if our brothers don't do it, there is only a dead end; Second, this business is not only the meaning of Lord Peng, but also the support of the bigwigs in the DPRK and China, in case something happens, Lord Peng and the people in Beijing will give us the aftermath, and there will be no worries; Third, Master Peng promised that after the deed is completed, you and I brothers will be able to devote ourselves to the right path and have a bright future. ”

Listening to his brother's words, Qu Feipeng became hesitant.

"You are not too young, after this business is done, take this money, marry Ah Xing, and start a family!" Qu Yunsong sighed and said, "These five hundred taels of gold, excluding the cost of the operation, are all yours." ”

"Brother, this ......"

"If you need help from the government, even if you tell me, although I am a master, I am just as good as I am to give orders."

"Oh well! I've taken over this business! ”

Qu Feipeng gritted his teeth and carefully put the golden ticket into his arms.

"Don't let Ah Xing get involved in this business."

"Don't worry, brother, I know."

Yangtze River, gunboat "Weijing".

"Lord Xu, the lord may have been overly sad in the past two days, and his mind is restless and his body is not very comfortable, so he has not seen guests in the past few days, please forgive me." One of Lin Yiqing's relatives said to Xu Chuanlong, who came to visit.

"Oh, then I won't bother, along the way, if there is a place where Xu is needed, you can just speak." Xu Chuanlong sighed and said.

"I've thanked Lord Xu on behalf of the lord, and there is Lord Lao Xu."

After Xu Chuanlong returned to his cabin, for some reason, he had a strange feeling in his heart.

After the death of Shen Youdan, the governor of Liangjiang, he was ordered to escort Shen Youdan's coffin to Shanghai by water, accompanied by Shen Youdan's eldest son Shen Weiqing, Shen Youdan's wife Wu and several other children were also in the ranks, only Shen Youdan's fourth son Shen Yuqing failed to return due to a study trip, and Lin Yiqing, a nephew, was also in the team of supporting the soul.

Xu Chuanlong originally planned to take this opportunity to have a deep conversation with Lin Yiqing, but since Lin Yiqing got on the "Weijing", he rarely showed up, and it seemed that he was deliberately isolating himself from outsiders, which surprised him.

Shen Youdan's death did make Lin Yiqing very sad, but there was no reason to behave like this!

And according to his secret observations, Lin Yiqing does not look like he is sick.

Why is that?

Is it because of "Peng Xueshuai"? ……

Thinking of Peng Yulin's suppression of the Nanyang Navy Master openly and secretly over the years, Xu Chuanlong couldn't help but sigh.

Timid and afraid, he didn't plan to have any deep friendship with Lin Yiqing, but this time. He was "trusted" by the Nanyang Sailors (or coercion is better)!

Xu Chuanlong would not have thought of it at this time. What's going to happen next.

On a hillside on the bank of a river in the distance. Several horsemen were standing there, and the people on the horses were holding binoculars and staring at the gunboat "Weijing" driving on the river.

"My lord, on board...... Is there really no need to send more people? ”

"It doesn't matter, they are enough, and no matter how big it is, they can handle it."

"The lord went by land and released the news again. Is it just to protect Lord Shen's coffin and his family? ”

"It is for this reason, besides, it is disrespectful to the deceased to do it on the spirit ship, and I don't want to disturb my uncle's peace."

"Lord, I heard that the Qianguo prohibits the common people from owning firearms, this time we are facing the enemy on land, if we use guns and thunder bullets, will it attract the government to find trouble?"

"Qianguo this order. Only the common people are forbidden, and officials are not banned. I have now been knighted by the Qianguo, and this prohibition cannot be forbade on my head, you pass the order, if you want to fight the enemy, you need to use long and short guns and thunder bullets, you can use it, no scruples. ”

"Yes!"

"The other party's assassination this time, I'm afraid it may not all be swords, bows and arrows, etc., I heard that there are people from the Yangtze River Sailor involved, and if we don't get it right, there will be firearms, so we naturally can't tie our hands and feet."

"What the lord said is true! The subordinates understand, so the order will be passed on! ”

A few horses quickly descended the hill, stirring up smoke and dust, and soon disappeared into the dirt road.

In a dimly lit cabin, no one had spoken for a long time, and the air was so dull that it was a little breathless.

A young man dressed in wolf's clothing suddenly threw down the dagger he was playing with, "Here it is." He slammed open the wooden door, and a cool breeze poured in, and a man like an iron tower strode into the house, and the wooden planks under his feet made a "creaking" sound, and the whole wooden house seemed to tremble.

"The gang that hit the periphery has already taken over with that guy's men, and that guy is running all the way in the direction of Qingfeng Valley, and it seems that he wants to escape."

"You let him escape?"

"No way, the claws under his hands are too hard, and many brothers have been damaged."

"That's right, the head work is ours, hehe."

The old man at the table said slowly: "If you set off immediately, you can ambush him before leaving the valley." The young man in wolf's clothing immediately walked out of the door, a big hand pressed on his shoulder, the young man struggled twice, he didn't break free, turned his face, and the big man shook his head at him. The old man looked into the corner, a young scribe hung his head, and there were no two pots of old wine left. "Mr. Qu." The old man called softly.

"He's alone?" Qu Feipeng still lowered his head and asked.

"Two, and a woman with him." Dahan said.

Qu Feipeng raised his head, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he looked at everyone. "Let's go." He said in a hoarse voice.

The young man was the first to rush out of the house, Qu Feipeng reached out and took off the foreign gun hanging on the wall, and walked out side by side with the big man.

Several people galloped on horseback, and the knights of the rivers and lakes, who had always loved war horses, became unsympathetic to their mounts, and the flames of greed always made people crazy. Qu Feipeng took the lead in appearing on the top of the pine and cypress mountain, and there was no trace of trampling on the road out of the valley, and the person they were waiting for had not yet arrived. The knights hid their horses behind the mountains, the young men in wolf skins volunteered to be sentinels, and the others found their own ambush positions.

Qu Feipeng tightly clutched the silver glittering foreign gun, this gun is a large-caliber shotgun, Qu Feipeng spent a lot of money to buy from a salt merchant, he opened up an underground secret room in his residence to practice guns, a few years later, the silver spent on the gun bullets alone is enough to buy a lot of ginseng for Youyou, and now Qu Feipeng's marksmanship is by no means inferior to the marksman in the Western army.

As an intermediary, this was the first time he had personally participated in an assassination attempt, and he showed himself a guy he had never seen before. So much so that the killers who acted with him were all surprised.

Those who are familiar with him know that his stunt is a flying knife, and this time he actually switched to a foreign gun, how can he not surprise everyone.

Since the ban on guns in the Qianguo period, muskets and birds have been confiscated from the people in the southern provinces, and foreign guns are only allowed to be owned by the government, because the people want to prevent bandits and thefts. All of them use traditional cold weapons such as swords, guns, spears, bows, and arrows. Foreign guns are forbidden to be bought and sold by the people. There are very few people who practice foreign gun skills by walking the rivers and lakes, but Qu Feipeng has obviously become an "alternative" among them.

"Mr. Qu, you use this...... Will it work? Don't recruit officers and soldiers, it's not good. The old man said with some concern.

"Don't worry, I'll shoot him as soon as he shows up." Qu Feipeng said, "When everything is over, everyone can get the reward." ”

"That's fine. It's still Qu Ye happy, hehe. Someone laughed.

At this moment, a low howl of a wild wolf was heard from outside the cave, which was the signal of a young man.

In the distance of the valley, small black dots appeared, and two figures rushing towards him could be faintly seen.
