Chapter 116: Zhang Xianzhong's Choice
Liu Yifeng walked out of his room, and was about to tell Xiao Er to make him a basin of hot water for him to soak his feet, when Feng Shuo, who had a gloomy face, came over with Zheng Zhilong.
"What's wrong?"
"We're being followed!"
Liu Yifeng let the two of them in and closed the door of the room: "Are you sure?" ”
"Sure, I've already let Lao Zheng test it."
Zheng Zhilong took over: "It was Lao Feng who discovered them first, and after he told me, I pretended not to know and walked out of the inn, and sure enough, someone pretended to be a pedestrian to follow me, and the person who followed me also returned to the inn after I returned to the inn." I tried again just now, and as soon as I walked out of the inn, someone would definitely follow me, and he would come back when I came back. ”
"Who is it, you know?"
Feng Shuo shook his head.
Liu Yifeng began to think about today's agenda to see who would follow him, but found that he could not find the target of suspicion. If I have to say, everyone I come into contact with today has the possibility of tracking themselves, but their motives are weak. I didn't offend anyone, at most I committed the taboo of "wealth is not exposed".
If it was really because Lu Cai was targeted, Zheng Zhilong would not have to follow when he left the inn.
"No matter, we and they don't dare to mess around in the city, let's do this for now, and then think about the stalkers when we get out of the city."
Liu Yifeng had actually thought of a countermeasure, and when he left, he could visit Shopkeeper Wang, and then take his boat to the Fleet Chamber of Commerce port northeast of Jinshan Bay. The people who followed him would never have imagined that they would leave Jinshan City by sea, and for a while they could not find a boat to follow. Even if they find it, a boat following them appears on the sea, and they will probably be stopped without the invitation of the Fleet Chamber of Commerce.
That's where his confidence lies.
Feng Shuo and Zheng Zhilong saw that Liu Yifeng said that they didn't have to worry about it, so they really didn't want to take care of it, they had been following him for so long, and they trusted Liu Yifeng very much.
The next day, Liu Yifeng handed over the task of hiring a man to Zheng Zhilong. After all, he and Feng Shuo were born as people's husbands, and they were worried that they would meet acquaintances, and find out how the two of them would become businessmen who could hire people in Dongshan Prefecture in the first year, which would expose the past of the two.
And he took Feng Shuo to visit the shopkeeper Wang.
"Shopkeeper Wang, where are you going?"
"Shopkeeper Zhang, don't ask about this, I don't know much about the tasks of the Maritime Safety Bureau, and I don't want to know."
Seeing that the shopkeeper Wang said this, Liu Yifeng didn't ask much, so as not to get burned.
"My little brother came today to visit the Fleet Chamber of Commerce in two days."
The shopkeeper Wang suddenly felt embarrassed, and he was going to leave tomorrow. He could have entrusted other ship managers to take Liu Yifeng to visit, but in that case, his credit in it would have declined.
A few days ago, when Liu Yifeng proposed that he might visit the Chamber of Commerce in the future, Shopkeeper Wang promised that in addition to befriending Liu Yifeng, there was also a purpose, that is, to see if they could develop a channel here in Liu Yifeng, and they wanted to buy some firecrackers.
This matter was explained by Boss Qiu, and he hoped that every ship manager in the Chamber of Commerce would think of a way.
Liu Yifeng's character here in the shopkeeper Wang is still a person who has a certain connection with the military in the local area, and such a person may really be able to get a firecracker, so he wants to introduce Liu Yifeng to Boss Qiu. Even if it doesn't work out in the end, this introduction can make Liu Yifeng owe him a small favor, and let Boss Qiu remember himself because he has a good network and can make friends with people like Liu Yifeng.
No matter how he won the situation, but because of the requisition of the Maritime Safety Bureau, he could only give away the credit, which made him very unhappy.
"Is it okay today?"
"In such a hurry?" Liu Yifeng asked a little puzzled: "Is it only today that I can see Boss Qiu?" ”
"No, it's just ......" Shopkeeper Wang was really depressed, but he didn't know how to explain it.
Liu Yifeng saw his upset, pulled him to a place where there was no one in the cabin, and asked: "Shopkeeper Wang, you and I know each other, and we are quite close to each other, just say what you have." ”
Shopkeeper Wang sighed, and wanted to take advantage of Liu Yifeng's relationship in the local area to make a good impression in front of Boss Qiu.
Liu Yifeng was stunned for a moment.
My ties in the home country?
It doesn't matter if I'm homesick!
He didn't know how to answer, so he could only remain silent. Shopkeeper Wang thought that Liu Yifeng was a little unhappy, after all, the other party was a friend of you, but you wanted to take advantage of your friend, although it was not harmful, but it was indeed a bit excessive.
"I'm really sorry, I'm too abrupt." Shopkeeper Wang could only apologize sincerely, and then said: "In this way, I will write a letter, and you will take the letter to Pier 4 to find Shopkeeper Liu the day after tomorrow, and he will take you to the Fleet Chamber of Commerce after reading the letter." ”
It can only be like this, the two exchanged a few more words, and Liu Yifeng got off the boat. When he passed by a pile of goods on the port, he heard the sound of a fight at the end of the narrow passage formed by the goods, he looked at it twice and didn't see anything, so he didn't care, and after meeting Feng Shuo, the two rode away.
A pair of eyes containing hatred stared at Liu Yifeng's back, but his hands didn't stop at all, and he kept pressing the head of a crew member to hit the cargo box. The man's nose was blue and his eyes were swollen, his face was full of saliva, tears and blood, and his hands unconsciously pushed and pressed his own person, hoping to stay away from him.
Unfortunately, it was in vain, and there was a dull sound of flesh hitting the wooden box, and the man's hands naturally drooped, and it seemed that he had fallen into a coma.
The person who grabbed him was mute, that is, Zhang Xianzhong.
When he saw Liu Yifeng coming, he resolutely hid, but was seen by a crew member who saw it. The crew thought he was lazy and came over to teach him a lesson. Zhang Xianzhong didn't want to cause trouble, so he could only beg for mercy with "Abba Aba", which aroused the sadism of the crew.
Zhang Xianzhong couldn't bear it anymore, pretended to escape into the narrow passage between the goods, and then waited for the rabbit to pinch the neck of the chasing crew, and then there were the movements that Liu Yifeng heard when he left.
He watched Liu Yifeng's figure disappear into the sea of people, and turned his head to look at the soft sailboat of the shopkeeper Wang. He already knew that they would be back home tomorrow, but the good news that should have made him happy made him very troubled.
Of course, it is good to be able to return to the homeland, and it is better to be the king of the mountain in the homeland than in the ghost place of Dongshan Prefecture.
But when he thought of this long journey, he had to pretend to be dumb and be bullied, Zhang Xianzhong felt that it was not so good to go back. And after going back, can you really be a mountain king comfortably?
The security of the Ming Dynasty has been getting better and better in recent years, but in fact, the bandits in the mountains are not having a good time.
Where are so many people from Dongshan Prefecture? Where did the Beiting Protectorate get so many servants? Where did the Annam Protectorate get so many reclamation people?
It's not about catching the mountain kings in the country.
If he was just entangled before, Liu Yifeng's appearance broke the balance in his heart.
It's decided, Lao Tzu wants to stay, Lao Tzu wants revenge!
Thinking of this, Zhang Xianzhong grabbed the head of the crew member again and pressed it the cargo, the wooden box was broken, and the sawdust pierced the man's face, looking very hideous.
Leaving behind the body of the crew that had fallen into a coma, Zhang Xianzhong touched the silver taels on his body, carefully left the port, and disappeared into the endless crowd of Jinshan City.
