Unexpectedly, when the woman heard this, she raised her head and cried angrily: "My son Wang Wa is nine years old, he has been smart and sensible since he was a child, how can he go to the river to play in this cold winter?" Besides, which child who grew up by the river doesn't know water? Even if my son falls into the water, how can he drown?! ”

Seeing that the two sides were about to quarrel again, Shang Ke had to hold the woman again and persuade: "Sister-in-law Zhang, be relieved, as long as Wang Wa is still alive, we will do our best to find him back, can you go back and wait patiently?" ”

I couldn't bear it, so I stepped forward to help persuade her, and the woman finally went away crying.

But I heard another guard behind me muttering in a low voice: "It's strange if you can find it back, how many half-grown children were lost before, and which one was found in the end...... This place in Mukden is very evil......"

I was horrified when I heard it.

Following Shang Ke to settle down in the Caoyun Administration, I couldn't help but ask: "In Fengtian Mansion, many children have been lost?" ”

"Not really." Shang Ke sighed helplessly, "But for more than half a year, there are seven or eight families who came to the government to report that their children were missing." It is also evil to say, and all the half-grown boys who are eight or nine years old disappear when they run out to play. The Yamen's arrest also made great efforts to search and solve the case, but in the end it ended in vain. ”

"Losing children one after another...... "The Mitsui Leopard glanced at me, "This Fengtianfu is a bit like the bhikshu country in "Journey to the West" you wrote about Xiao Yue. ”

"You wrote "Journey to the West"?!" Shang Ke's eyes suddenly lit up, and he was full of admiration for me, "It's just a strange book!" Miss Leng is so accomplished, it's really ancient and modern! ”

The girl blushed: "Hehe......"

"However, it's really as the senior brother said." Shang Ke shook his head helplessly, "Since several children were lost, one of them was found by the riverside with a shoe on his feet, and it was rumored in Fengtian Mansion that the lake monster of Gaoyou Lake came to Fengtian and inhabited the bottom of the lake, and wanted to use the pure yang body of the boy to replenish the essence, so the boy who was playing by the river was captured and eaten. ”

I smiled bitterly at the Mizumi leopard: "This rumor is really nonsense. ”

"Let's not talk about the boy's disappearance, we have a serious matter." Shang Ke said, calling a subordinate named Wei Qi, "What I told you before leaving, can you do it properly?" ”

Wei Qi hugged his fists and said: "How dare you not be careful, my brother and I, since the merchant ship of the Japanese people docked at the dock, we have been watching it closely, and we have not left for a moment until the ship leaves Mukden." ”

I can't help but secretly approve: Brother Shang was prescient. He also heard Shang Ke say: "In this way, he will tell us in detail every move of those Japanese people in Mukden." ”

"Yes." Wei Qi took out a small notebook from his bosom with concern, "The merchant ship of the Japanese Kingdom docked at my Fengtianfu wharf on the morning of the third day of the first month of this month; He left in the early morning of the fourth day of the new year, and stayed in Fengtian Mansion for a day and a night. ”

This is a bit strange: "If it is only a routine reversal of documents, why does it take so long?" ”

Wei Qi grinned: "This merchant ship of the Japanese people happened to have some problems on the way to Fengtian, and as soon as they came, they inquired about the places near the Fengtian Pier where there were ships to repair, and they went to the Xu Ji Dock through the recommendation of the people in Fuzhong. ”

Fault? I clearly remember that when our grandfather took a downwind boat, the boat was fine, "How long has their boat been docked at the dock?" ”

Wei Qi looked down at his notebook: "Oh, from the evening of the third day of junior high school to the early morning of the second day, there was a file incident. ”

"What?"

"That night, two Japanese were drunk, and they disagreed with the dock mates, and they made a move. Although the Japanese people were fierce, they couldn't stand the dock and there were many people, and after a while, they were dispersed by their boss. I didn't want the drunk Japanese to feel aggrieved, so I set fire to the warehouse of the dock again! The guys who were all in the dock were busy putting out the fire, and the noise stopped in the middle of the night. ”

"These Japanese people are really doing things." Shang Ke frowned and said, "What did Boss Xu of the dockyard say?"

"What kind of character is Boss Xu, he said at that time, he wanted to let these Japanese people live and not get out of the realm of Fengtianfu!"

I roughly heard it: Boss Xu of this dock is a snake from Fengtianfu, "It's just that the Japanese people still left by boat the next day?" ”

"That's it!" Wei Qi obviously didn't feel that this was like Boss Xu's usual style, "According to my inquiry, it was said that the leader of the Wa Kingdom paid Boss Xu a lot of gold and silver, so that he could settle the matter." ”

I thought to myself: Losing money and settling things doesn't sound like the style of the underworld boss Ori Yujun.

After asking Wei Qi for some details, Shang Ke ordered him to go.

"Who is Boss Xu in this dock?" I asked Shang Ke.

Shang Ke glanced out of the door, and Fang lowered his voice and said, "This Boss Xu, it is our Fengtianfu Caoyun Dao, the brother-in-law of Master Cao, the official of Cao!" Relying on the relationship between Lord Cao, specializing in business on the waterway, it can be said that it is black and white in Fengtianfu, and he is a character who can walk sideways. After that, he sighed lightly, "That is, the people of the Japanese country do not know the height of the sky, and in the local area of Fengtian, there are really few people who dare to break ground on his Tai Sui!" ”

The Keishui leopard "cut" disdainfully: "Nepotism, collusion between officials and businessmen, you Fengtianfu are really 'simple people'." ”

"I can't get used to it!" Shang Ke said helplessly, "Who let you let my junior brother and I speak softly, I am very tired to be able to manage my subordinates alone." ”

I remembered the methods that Brother Shang had commanded that day, and suddenly understood him a little.

However, about the beginning and end of the conflict between the samurai of the Japanese Kingdom and the dock guys, I always feel that something is strange, "Weaving Yujun, a strong dragon, met Boss Xu, the head snake, neither of them is a vegetarian master, and they fought and set fires, and finally it didn't work?" "I always feel that there is a smell of conspiracy in it.

"Could it be ......" Mishui Leopard suddenly knocked his fist, "From beginning to end, this conflict is just a scene?" ”

Acting, acting again...... Girl, I can't help but say "hehe" in my heart, I have watched so many dramas in the past two days, and sure enough, life is like a play, and drama is like life.

"Acting?" Shang Ke was a little puzzled, "Why do they want to act, and who are they acting for?" ”

"Those who play for you also play for your own people." I sneered, "Creating conflicts and setting fire to houses is just to hide people's eyes and attract the attention of most people." As he spoke, he looked at the Kei Shui Leopard and nodded, "This Xu Ji Dock has a lot of articles!" ”

"Exactly." The Keishui leopard patted Shang Ke on the shoulder, "Senior brother, do you have a way, let us go to Xu Ji Dock to have a look?" ”

"If it's an ordinary visit, let's say hello and go, but ......" Shang Ke showed a bitter face, "I'm afraid I won't see anything." ”

I always felt that Brother Shang was subconsciously a little reluctant, but somehow: "It's better to explore the terrain first." ”

"Shang Tiju is coming, Xu is missing someone!"

In the main hall of Xu Ji Dock, Boss Xu hurriedly got up and surrendered his hand to Shang Ke.

I look at this Boss Xu in his fifties, with a gray beard on his face, a burly figure and a big belly, and his laughter is quite loud and his smile can't reach the bottom of his eyes.

"Boss Xu is polite. These two friends are big businessmen in Jinling, and they are new to the affairs of Cao Yun, thinking that they will mix on the canal in the future, and it is inevitable that they will encounter some troubles and problems, so I will introduce them to meet Boss Xu, and it will be convenient for them to communicate in the future. ”

Boss Xu is such a shrewd person, and he smiled heartily when he heard this: "It's easy to say!" I have a close relationship with Shang Tiju, and we have always been like a family. In the future, if the ship of the two bosses goes wrong, come to me! ”

Shang Ke heard the statement of "family", and the corners of his forehead turned black inexplicably.

I bowed my hand to him and said, "I heard that Brother Shang mentioned Boss Xu's name, saying that your Xu Ji dock is also the first one on the entire Grand Canal, and I am fortunate to come today, I wonder if Boss Xu is willing to let us open our eyes?" ”

"Look at it, look at it!" Boss Xu obviously thought that we were going to inspect the scale of his dock so that we could have a long-term cooperation in the future, so he sent us a few steps, and said that he was busy at hand, and called a guy to go around with us.

In all fairness, Boss Xu's dock is quite large, well-equipped, with many personnel and clear responsibilities, and it has a bit of a modern factory.

"What is this?" Walking to a place, the Kei Shui Leopard pointed to the blackened broken ruins in front of him and asked deliberately.

"Oh, not long ago, we fought with a few Japanese barbarians, and they couldn't do anything to us, so they played scoundrels and burned our treasury!" Speaking of this, the guy still looked indignant.

I deliberately made a regretful statement: "Such a large warehouse has been burned, and Boss Xu's loss is not small!" ”

"It's fine." The man casually answered, "This storehouse is just for some broken things that have been removed from the ship, and it is not very valuable." ”

I nodded, looked up at the surroundings, and thought to myself that there were seven or eight storehouses in the vicinity, and the Japanese people would pick up the most worthless ones to burn, and according to the direction of the winter wind, they would not ignite the other houses, which was easy to say...... It's either that the hearts of the Japanese people are too soft, or that Boss Xu is too lucky.

Thinking to himself, he quickened his pace and went to the backyard.

"The backyard is Boss Xu's inner house, and there are guys' dormitories, do you still want to see it?"

We were looking at each other on three sides, and we couldn't help but feel a gust of wind behind our heads, and we felt that in front of us, Shang Ke had already taken four or five steps forward, and one of them almost fell.

I was feeling who was so fast, and I felt that there was another flicker in front of me, and a bright yellow figure had rushed to Shang Ke's side, and he "snapped" heavily on his hardly stabilized figure, and his voice was as delicate as a yellow bird in March: "Brother Shang!" What are you doing here? ”
