Chapter 280: The Emperor's Eyeliner
Li Qing guessed correctly.
Hua Xiao also thought of this.
Yes, when Ji Yingnan said the answer, neither of them was surprised.
However, Huaxiao still has problems.
"Boss Ji, how did you find out about this situation?"
Ji Yingnan said: "After the lower official got the task, he carefully observed it. When the lower officials became suspicious of the Four Seas Firm, they sent people to contact the shipwrights of the Four Seas Firms and secretly investigated. This investigation was not easy, and after several twists and turns, I learned about this situation from a boatman named Pei Qiang. ”
Hua Xiao pondered for a moment, and did not let Ji Yingnan bring Pei Qiang to him.
He asked directly, "After you learned about this situation, did you send someone to check on this island?" ”
"Nope." Ji Yingnan said: "Pei Qiang is a rough man, and he can't tell the location of the island. The lower officials did not dare to act rashly, for fear that they would scare the emperor and the prince. ”
The big event of the emperor and the prince?
Li Qing glanced at Ji Yingnan silently.
"Well done." Hua Xiao said lightly: "This matter really needs to be considered in the long run, and you can't act rashly." First of all, determine the location of the island, and preferably, get a map of the island. Pei Qiang doesn't understand, then find someone who understands. It's people, and there are always shortcomings. I think with Boss Ji's ability, I shouldn't need me to tell you what to do. ”
Ji Yingnan took a deep breath, the whole person looked serious and serious, and there was a little bit of caution in accepting important tasks.
"Xiaguan understands that Xiaguan will do his best to get the location and map of the island as much as possible."
"Everything should be done with caution and prudence, and try not to startle the snake. If you have something, you will come to Yunfu to find this king. Hua Xiao said: "I am now a pseudonym Yunze, and I am a merchant who makes silk. It is natural to have business dealings with the owner of Yingnan Commercial Bank. ”
"Keep it in mind." Ji Yingnan glanced at Li Qing and asked with a smile: "It's approaching the New Year's Pass, and this year's New Year Lord and Princess will definitely spend it in Jiangnan Mansion." Xiaguan has been in Jiangnan Mansion for longer than the prince and the princess, and is more familiar with this side. In addition to official duties, the prince and princess are useful to the officials, even if they are ordered. ”
"I have a heart." Hua Xiao glanced at Li Qing.
Li dutifully fulfilled her duties as a vase, and when she saw Hua Xiao handing her over with a look, she smiled at Ji Yingnan reservedly.
……
Coming out of the Yingnan Commercial Bank, Hua Xiao and Li Qing got into the carriage.
Only then did Li Qing speak: "Master, I didn't expect that as soon as we arrived in Jiangnan Mansion, we got such a big clue. Did you know this clue before? ”
"If I knew, I would have told you." Huaxiao Road.
Li looked at him with a chuckle: "Then do you think the emperor knows about this situation?" ”
The corners of Hua Xiao's mouth hooked slightly: "The emperor may know, or may not know." It is more likely that he doesn't know, such an important clue, if he wants to hide it, he won't tell me such an important thing as Ji Yingnan is his person. He could have just told me the clues and not told me his eyeliner in Gangnam. ”
"That's right." Li nodded lightly: "Then after Ji Yingnan finds out about this island, are we going to go to the island to investigate?" ”
Hua Xiao looked at Li Qing meaningfully: "Do you want to go to the island to investigate?" ”
He thought that Li Qing wanted to join in the fun again, but he didn't expect that this time, Li Qing actually shook his head.
