Chapter 160: Helpful Me
The palm-sized gold-inlaid jade waist plate, the front is engraved with the word 'Yuci', and the back is the word 'Shuoming', and regardless of the exquisite patterns around it, the meaning of these four words alone makes Lu Jing and Gorman look surprised.
"The waist card of the Shuoming Imperial Court?"
Even if Lu Jing didn't know anything about the officialdom of the Shuoming Dynasty, he could still see the origin of this kind of waist card, and he looked up and glanced at the lining under the man's coat, like some kind of uniform, but he couldn't tell it for a while, so he had to turn around and call Xu Xu, who knew something about this aspect.
"Captain, the uniform he wears and this waist tag are all standard equipment of Jing'an Division, and it is impossible to imitate it in such a short period of time...... The Jing'an Division is the headquarters of the local night divisions, overseeing the official transcendents under the Shuoming court. ”
Xu Chu recognized the identity of the other party at a glance, threw the waist card back, and explained in a low voice.
"Is it possible to imitate it?"
Even if the other party revealed his identity, Lu Jing was still angry about their behavior of replacing the flag just now.
"It's unlikely, whether it's this official uniform or a gold-inlaid jade waist card, it will start with a five-year prison sentence to build it privately, and in such a short period of time, they can't do so many things, so it should be true, but we are now wanted by the Shuoming Imperial Court, whether we can help or not, it depends on your decision, this distance, they can't catch up, as for the two guys in front of them, let's do it together, and a single look should be able to sink them into the sea." ”
In the final analysis, Lu Jing and his entourage are now wanted criminals in the imperial court, and since they are enemies, it is understandable to use some means.
"There are more than 100 people on our ship, and there is still more than half a day's sea journey from the destination island, please make it convenient for your Excellency, and the remuneration is negotiable!"
Xu noticed Lu Jing's hesitation, and the man holding the waist card in his hand shouted again.
"With your status, twenty gold leaves is not too much, right?"
The money sent to the door, in Lu Jing's opinion, is not profitable, and after thinking about it, he said loudly.
"No problem!"
Hearing Lu Jing's relief, the middle-aged man didn't even have the idea of a counteroffer, and nodded directly.
"The promise is so refreshing, beware of them crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, if we lean forward, it will be very troublesome for them to turn their faces. ”
The price of twenty gold leaves can almost be worth the entire Tideflow, and it is difficult to guarantee that the other party will not regret it after getting the goods.
"Hehe, who said that the Tide Stream is going to come over, Fu Ju, go to the cabin and get the whale oil tank and repair materials, put them on the deck, and I'll personally send them over later...... Hey, what are you still doing in a daze, don't tell me that a ship that is so big that it can't even get out of a small ship that transports goods, right?"
Lu Jing never thought of letting the Tide Flow lean in and take risks from the beginning, the number of the other party was more than 100, and it was also a ship of the imperial court, and there were many transcendents guarding it, as Xu Ji said, the other party really wanted to cross the river and demolish the bridge, Lu Jing couldn't stop it at all.
It is precisely because of this that Lu Jing is safer in the past, and if he really wants to fight, with his ability, there is no problem at all in digging a few holes in someone's boat and then returning.
The two people from Jing'an Division didn't care about Lu Jing's request, leaving one person behind, and the other person went back to report the news, and after a while, they drove a medium-sized speedboat back, and Lu Jing also drove a speedboat here, loaded the remaining part of the supplies, and planned to get it done in one trip.
Why don't you just let them make two trips, so you don't even have to get on the other party's boat, do you?
Xu Chu also realized this, and specially reminded him, but was rejected by Lu Jing by shaking his head, the reason is very simple, the middle-aged man's unintentional words just now attracted Lu Jing's attention.
They are still half a day's way from their destination island.
Although the other party had deliberately concealed the place they were going, when Lu Jing looked at the chart yesterday morning, he knew that there were no more than one hand of inhabited islands near the forbidden area, and the closest thing to them at this time was Mu Shi Island.
This means that these people have the same goals as them!
What is M Moser Island?
A place outside the law in the true sense, and this official ship not only wants to go to Muhammad Island, but also specially changed to the pirate black flag, which undoubtedly means that they are not going to exterminate Muslim Island but have other purposes.
People who go to Muhammad Island to do business, do you still need to think about the real goal, nine times out of ten they are going to the forbidden area!
To get back to the point, when the two speedboats, one large and one small, arrived near the big ship with full supplies, Lu Jing quickly found that the ship was indeed seriously damaged in the storm just now, and there were more than a dozen cracks on the side of the ship on the boarding position alone, not to mention the part hidden in the seawater.
At the same time, Lu Jing could also feel that there was a residual energy reaction on the hull of the ship, and they were able to escape just now, it should have used some extraordinary means.
Using the hook lock lowered on the side of the ship, all kinds of sundries were hoisted up one by one, and Lu Jing finally went up to the deck along the rope ladder next to him.
As soon as he landed, Lu Jing felt dozens of eyes lock on him, and when he looked up, there were really a lot of people standing on this deck.
The clothes of these people were not much different from those of pirates, and Lu Jing's eyes immediately found the group of people who were surrounded by the crowd and were coming to his side.
At the head was a burly man with a long knife at his waist, followed on the left by a heroic young woman with eyebrows and eyes that resembled the man, and on the right was an old man with a goatee.
These three people are all transcendental, Lu Jing determined this the first time he saw them, counting the two he met just now, there are at least five transcendents on this ship.
"Thank you for your help, I am the captain of this ship, Gu Yunling, I don't know ...... Your Excellency"
I had already heard the reports of my subordinates, and knew that the young man in front of him was an extraordinary person who could control water, and Shangguan Yunling didn't put up any shelf, and took the initiative to greet him.
"Under Di Renjie!"
Lu Jing arched his hand, with an inexplicable sense of superiority in his words, and continued,
"Since you have made the offer, I will have to make sure that the deal goes smoothly, and my ship is waiting over there, and if these materials are not enough, I can still bring some of them there. ”
This reason was thought of by Lu Jing before he boarded the ship, so that he could stay on this deck for a while.
"Haha~ Brother Di is refreshing enough, Xiaoyin, I will pay this brother. ”
Gu Yunling, who calmed down the crisis, looked very good, and waved his hand to signal his daughter next to him to give money.
"Here are twenty gold leaves, please keep them, Your Excellency. ”
Gu Xiaoyin stepped forward with the money bag, handed it to Lu Jing face to face, and added in a low voice,
"Your Excellency's whale oil cans are really extraordinary, they must have been bought with great difficulty, right?"
The whale oil tank can't be said to be cheap, but a can is only a dozen silver dollars in the sky, counting the rest of the materials, three gold leaves is already the limit, and Lu Jing asked for twenty gold leaves when she opened her mouth In her opinion, it is not much different from knocking on bamboo, so naturally she will not have a good face.
"In this endless sea, it's not the whale oil tank that is expensive, but my helpful heart. ”
Looking at Gu Xiaoyin, Lu Jing kept smiling, and his answer made the former speechless.
