Chapter 59: Escape from Longshan County
"Yes, it's a secret technique!"
The black-robed old man "Mr. Wu" couldn't help but smile smugly when he saw Han Ze's surprised expression.
For ordinary martial artists, secret skills are an existence that can be encountered but not sought, and they are much more precious than internal skills.
"This iron sand palm secret technique, the market price is between 10,000 ~ 12,000 taels, although the price is not very high, but it is one of the few secret skills that can be learned in the skin film realm, which can be met but not sought."
Han Ze has also learned a lot of information related to secret martial arts these days, and even three days ago, he went to the Qingjing Temple in Xicheng to ask the great monk inside, but unfortunately people didn't like him at all.
However, he also knew that what this Mr. Wu said was the truth, and the Iron Sand Palm was indeed one of the secret techniques that he could learn in his realm.
The point is that it's not very easy to buy.
Han Ze couldn't help but smile excitedly: "It seems that Mr. Wu has been prepared for a long time!" ”
The black-robed old man also smiled and said, "Originally, the secret technique and the Jingdan were going to be auctioned at the auction, and if Mr. Han is satisfied, of course it is the best." ”
The reason why the low-level Jingdan was put up for auction was not because of how rare it was, but because it was purely a price difference, and it was not a few bottles each time, but dozens or hundreds of bottles at a time, with a price increase of 100 taels.
Small counties are monopolized, and the reservation price increase is directly doubled, and you don't want to buy it.
Han Ze said: "Of course! Mr. Wu is so sincere, how can I not be satisfied? Okay, so be it. ”
In fact, all these things add up, and the market price is only about 40,000 taels of silver, which is more than 10,000 taels away from the price of his pocket watch.
However, Jingdan and secret techniques, even if you have money, are not immediately available.
Especially the secret skills that suit him, it is really like what the old man in the black robe said, it can be met but not sought.
After the master connoisseur made sure that there was no problem with the pocket watch, the two sides completed the transaction.
8 pocket watches made by modern Seiko were exchanged for 20,000 silver tickets of Baofeng Yinlou, plus five bottles of Jingdan and a copy of "Iron Sand Palm" secret skills.
Both of them felt like they had made a fortune.
When I shook hands and said goodbye, I smiled so happily.
After returning to the carriage, Han Ze couldn't wait to rush towards the dock.
On the dock of the Great Lake, a building ship is already waiting for its sails.
"Building ship", as the name suggests, is a tall and tall ship, its appearance is also worthy of the name, the hull is divided into three to five layers, the ship is built on the building, so it is called the "building ship", the height can reach more than 10 zhang, the maximum can carry 3,000 people.
The building ship leased by Wang Fugui is the smallest, with only three layers of hull, and can only carry 100 people at the maximum except for sailors, but even so, it looks very large.
Crucially, the ship was powered not by human sailors, but by steam, with a thick chimney in the middle of the building.
"Let's go!"
After Han Ze boarded the ship, Wang Fugui immediately ordered to set sail.
"Woo-woo-"
With the whistle of the building boat, the thick chimney, after a burst of white smoke, the building boat slowly sailed out of the dock and sailed towards the vast and endless river in the east.
Less than half an hour after the boat departed, a group of black-clad men with knives chased them to the dock and found the carriage driver who was waiting to pull him back to the city.
Seeing a group of black-clothed men with big shoulders and round waists and bright machetes in their hands, the coachman was so frightened that he couldn't possess his soul and shouted: "Uncles spare your lives, the little ones don't know anything......
"Shut up!"
The leader was a nine-foot-tall man in black, who stretched out his hand to "snap" two slaps, and slapped the coachman's words begging for mercy into his stomach.
Then he asked in detail what Han Ze had said during the ride, but unfortunately he didn't get any useful information.
However, they inquired about the information of the building ship that Han Ze was taking, and according to the information, these black-clothed men found the owner of the building boat and successfully learned the direction of the voyage and the final destination.
"I'll take someone to pursue, Niu Wang, you go back immediately now and tell the helper......"
At this time, in the courtyard rented by Han Ze, dozens of big men were searching in each room in a carpet search.
In the small pavilion in front of the study, three men were drinking tea slowly.
The man with a long face, short hair, hooked nose, and two beards said quietly: "I didn't expect the Yun Gang Master and the Jiang Hall Master to be so well-informed, I just received the news, and you actually rushed over." ”
This bearded man is none other than the famous Song Defei in Longshan County, and he has another identity - the leader of the Iron Palm Gang.
Sitting on the right-hand side, the white-faced bearded man laughed and said: "In the business of making money, I have always been unwilling to be left behind." ”
Another man with a leopard's head and eyes ringed and a voice like a drum said: "The business in Longshan County is about to be monopolized by your Song gang leader, if we are not well-informed, we can only drink the northwest wind." ”
The white-faced and beardless man was Jiang Tai, the leader of the Black Evil Gang in Longshan County, and the other man with a leopard's head and eyes was the clouded leopard, the leader of the Flying Tiger Gang.
"The Cloud Gang Leader is really joking, you Flying Tiger Gang monopolizes the freight terminal and makes money every day, if even you drink the northwest wind, then won't I starve to death?"
Song Defei was smiling on his face, but he secretly hated it in his heart.
He is the major shareholder behind Yongchang Watch Company.
He has been sending people to find the person who sold the pocket watch these days, and the pocket watch still has a profit of nearly 4,000 taels after deducting the auction commission.
You must know that the profit of this pocket watch is worth the profit of ten ordinary pocket watches, and Yongchang Watch Company now can't sell ten pocket watches a year, so he can't help but be crazy.
It's a pity that after searching for many days, I never found that person.
Until today, when tracking down the murderer of Liu San, I accidentally discovered that the suspect Han Ze was seven or eight points similar to the person who went to Yongchang Watch Store to sell watches a month ago.
It's a pity that before he could be happy, the news was somehow revealed, and he was informed by the two local snakes, the Black Evil Gang and the Flying Tiger Gang.
So there was a scene of three well-known figures in Longshan County gathering in the courtyard.
At this moment, two of the clouded leopard's subordinates walked up to him with a stack of clothes and said, "Boss, look. ”
At this time, he took the clothes and looked at them, and found that these clothes that looked like underwear were novel and lightweight, and they felt soft and comfortable to the touch.
"What is this?" The clouded leopard picked up a piece of fabric from a large pile of clothes, which was less than half the size of his palm, and looked unsure of what it was, "Is it an eye patch?" ”
"I'll see." Jiang Tai took it and looked at it, but he didn't recognize it.
The two didn't know that this was the erotic underwear that Han Ze bought for the two personal maids.
Song Defei on the side, after thinking quickly, said: "Since the matter has come to this, it is better for us to join forces, as long as we can figure out the way of the table, we will definitely be able to make a fortune, and when the time comes, the benefits will be divided equally between the three of us, what do you think?" ”
"Since Boss Song said so, I have no problem."
"I'm okay too!"
As soon as the three of them reached an agreement, Clouded Leopard's subordinate came over with a one-armed man, "Boss, someone has brought it." This is the clouded leopard, the leader of the Flying Tigers, and we haven't seen our boss yet. ”
The one-armed man hurriedly walked up to the clouded leopard, bowed down and said, "In Xia Qian Ruifeng, I have seen the Yun Gang Master." ”
The clouded leopard looked at Qian Ruifeng and asked, "I heard that you are very familiar with Han Ze, right?" ”
"I ...... I just know him, not familiarity. Qian Ruifeng said in fear.
"Look, do you know this person?" The clouded leopard handed over a portrait on the table and said fiercely: "Hmph, you'd better be honest, otherwise, Lao Tzu will cut off your other hand." ”
Qian Ruifeng's heart suddenly froze, and he repeatedly promised that he "wouldn't dare", and took the portrait and looked at it carefully.
This portrait was drawn by Song Defei with the memory of the shopkeeper of Yongchang Watch Store and Xiao Er, and it was taken by the clouded leopard.
I have to say that the painters in this world have a solid level of realistic painting style, and they paint the simulated portrait of Han Ze after camouflage very realistically.
Qian Ruifeng and Han Ze had also been together for a while, so they were easily recognized, and said hesitantly: "This person is indeed seven or eight points similar to Han Ze, but Han Ze's hair is not so long and he does not have a beard, so I am not 100% sure." ”
Song Defei snorted coldly, "Sure enough, it's him!" "As for the hair and beard, it's just a disguise.
At the same time, Song Defei's subordinates rushed over from Dongcheng, and hurriedly said when they entered the door: "Boss, that guy ran away and went to Fucheng, and Hall Master Luo has already led people to chase him." ”
Song Defei sneered: "Want to run? Which is so easy! ”
Jiang Tai nodded and said, "Let's each send a team of men and horses, and then intercept them by land." ”
