Chapter Seventy-Five, Make a Name for Your Friends!

"Ah, my purse—my purse is gone—"

From a certain cabin, there was a scream like a pig.

The sound pierced the silence of the building, and countless guests woke up from their sleep.

"Mine too, my purse is gone—"

"There's a thief on board, go and report to the officer-"

The sound of the hatch being pushed open with a thump, and the disheveled students shouted something with angry faces.

"The boatman, the boatman, let the person in charge of you come over to me-" Zhang Linpu staggered out with his belt in his belt, shouting loudly and said, "All the hundred gold coins in my bag have been stolen, you hurry up and get them back for me." No—or we're not done with you. ”

"That's it, and my fifty gold coins—"

"My one hundred and twenty-" --

Li Muyang opened his eyes, and after hearing the shouting outside, the first thing he did was to touch his crotch.

Luckily, the gold coins and the sperm vault are there.

So, he closed his eyes and prepared to sleep a little longer. The first time I went far away, the first time I left my parents and family, I lay in bed last night thinking about all kinds of things, and it was only in the second half of the night that I slept for a while.

It was still dark outside, and there was a faint shadow of the moon hanging in the sky, and he was woken up?

Suddenly, he jumped out of bed. Pulled the luggage package from under the deck and rummaged through it for a while.

Nothing was found.

All the gold coins hidden in the package were gone.

Luo Qi divided the gold coins into several small portions, and hid them in bags of clothes or some food boxes, and all of them were found. The package remained in place as if no one had ever moved it.

It's a thief!

Li Muyang pushed the door and walked out, and there was already a lot of noise outside.

Zhang Linpu and other Jiangnan students who lost their money bags shouted loudly, and a middle-aged man wearing a three-cornered hat was trying to explain something to them, but they didn't listen at all, and pulled the middle-aged man's arm and asked the boatman to compensate for the loss.

"Ladies and gentlemen, sons - please listen to me, please listen to me." The man in the three-cornered hat kept waving and said, "Now that the boat enters Ji Mingze, it is the most dangerous and easy place to get out of the lake. Even if the thief stole the money of the princes, he would not have disembarked here. ”

"The boat sailed all the way and didn't dock anywhere. So, I'm sure the damn thief must still be on top of this ship. If you have some time, we will organize people to search the various cabins. The amount of money you have stolen is not a small amount, and even if a thief wants to hide it, it is not an easy task. If we find the money, won't we be able to find the thief? At that time, I can give you an explanation. ”

Zhang Linpu felt justified when he heard this, let go of the collar of the ship's steward, turned to look at the fellow villagers and asked, "What do you think?" ”

"Search. Be sure to search. The crowd was full of grief and indignation, and said loudly. Although money is something outside the body, it is also a life-saving thing. They had just gone out when all their belongings were stolen by thieves. Is this the day to drink the northwest wind?

Zhang Linpu saw Li Muyang coming out of the cabin and asked, "Li Muyang, have you been stolen?" ”

"Two hundred and ten gold coins were stolen." Li Muyang said loudly.

Everyone was stunned, but they didn't expect Li Muyang to go out to study and bring such a huge sum of money.

"Really?" Zhang Linpu didn't believe it.

"This time, I was lucky enough to take the first place in the literary exam, and the city lord rewarded me with two thousand gold coins. Originally, my mother wanted me to bring half of it out directly, so that I would not suffer outside. I didn't think I needed that much, so I only brought two hundred and one. Li Muyang explained. The small bag in the crotch of his pants was not known by anyone, it was his life-saving money.

“――”

Everyone stared at Li Muyang and thought, why did this bastard take the first place in the empire?

The ship's steward was called Chen Tao, and he gathered all the crew members and guests on the first and second floors on the deck, and then organized a group of hardcover guards to enter each cabin one by one to search.

All the students follow behind as overseers, and no one can fake it under everyone's nose.

Unfortunately, to everyone's disappointment, all the cabins were searched, and there was no picture of the large pile of gold coins gleaming in some hidden corner.

"The thief must have hidden the gold coins—"

"What can we do without money? If you go to Tiandu, do you have to wait for death? ”

"No, our money was lost on the ship, and the ship will have to compensate us for our losses—"

Zhang Linpu pointed to the staircase on the third floor and said, "Steward Chen, it seems that the third floor hasn't been searched yet, right?" ”

Chen Tao was in a hurry, waved his hand again and again and said, "The third floor can't be searched." The third floor is a place of great value, and it is impossible for them to steal the meager money of you students. ”

Zhang Linpu's little heart couldn't stand it anymore, pointed at Chen Tao and shouted, "Steward Chen, what do you mean?" Upstairs are noble people, and we are grassroots dirt ashes? Now the entire first and second floors, including the crew cabin, have been searched, and the thief and our lost gold coins have not been found, so naturally we have to go to the third floor to search-"

"That is, the prince broke the law, and he was guilty of the same crime as the common people. Why is it that those who live on the third floor are superior? ”

"Even if there are some dignitaries on the third floor, are those servants and guards more valuable than us? Who can guarantee that there will be no unclean hands and feet among them? ”――

Chen Tao still refused, and said: "This thing can't be done, this can't be done, and I can't do this thing anymore - when the third floor was chartered by these distinguished guests, our ship company promised that it would never disturb their rest." ”

"Then our money was stolen for nothing?" Zhang Linpu's face was full of anger, and he said: "If your ship company pays all the money and property stolen by our students, we will not search the third floor." Otherwise, even if it's the Heavenly King, we're going to break in and take a look-"

"Yes, we're just going to go up and take a look—" the crowd chimed in, echoing each other.

"What are you yelling about?" A proud voice came from overhead.

Cui Zhaoren, who was wearing a black cloak, accompanied by several subordinates of the Supervision Department, appeared at the hatch with an impatient expression, and was disturbed by someone, which was really a depressing thing. Snorted coldly and said, "We don't care about your hundreds of gold coins at all. If you dare to slander you casually, see that I don't smash your mouths - get out of my way. ”

"You-" Zhang Linpu wanted to stiffen up a little more, but when he saw those men in black pressing their hands on the hilt of their knives, their eyes were vicious, and they were ready to draw knives and hurt people at any time, but they couldn't say anything when they came to their mouths.

"Let's go up and have a look." A light voice came out.

Zhang Linpu, who was standing at the forefront, hurriedly avoided it, in order to show the group of people in black that he was not the one who spoke. This matter has nothing to do with me.

The crowd dispersed, and Li Muyang, who had been following the crowd and walking through one cabin after another, looked a little leisurely, and was pushed in front of Cui Zhaoren's eyes like a 'star arching moon'.

"It turned out to be this two hundred and five." Everyone thought to themselves.

"What are you?" The corners of Cui Zhaoren's mouth raised slightly, and he said unceremoniously.

"I'm Li Muyang." Li Muyang said with a smile.

"What is Li Muyang?"

"Li Muyang is not a thing, he is a living person." Li Muyang smiled and said: "Yan Bolai, the lord of Jiangnan City, is my uncle, and Yan Xiangma, the son of the city lord, is my brother in life and death - Yan Xiangma is the most famous gentleman in Jiangnan City, but he can do any bad thing." So, please be cautious with this young master. ”

Li Muyang played a trick here. He thought that since all these people had boarded the boat from Fenglindu, most of them were Jiangnan people. Which Jiangnan person doesn't know the prestige of the city lord Yan Bolai? Which Jiangnan person doesn't know the name of the Tsubame Soma?

Yan Bolai rushed to see him off just now, and these people on the boat should also be in their eyes. No matter who they are, they must always be afraid of the face of some City Lords' Mansions, right?

As for Yan Xiangma, since he often said that he can do any bad thing, as his brother in life and death and close friends, Li Muyang is not stingy to make a name for him.
