After leaving the workshop, Xia Qingxue asked a little puzzled: "Brother-in-law, that person is just a blacksmith, why did he give him so much money?"

In her eyes, those housekeepers and maids are all subordinates, and they only need to be instructed to do anything, so why bother giving extra money?

"A lot?" Qi Tian asked rhetorically.

"Of course, an ordinary blacksmith only has one gold coin a year, and my brother-in-law actually gave him thirty just now!" Xia Qingxue said.

Qi Tian said with a smile: "Qingxue, it's easy to let a person do something, you can coerce or coerce, but it doesn't have a good effect on inducement, because lure can stimulate the most primitive motives in human hearts, since he likes money, simply give him more gold coins, he will definitely work hard for you and hand over very good works." ”

Xia Qingxue scratched her head, frowned, and said with a painful expression: "It's really difficult... Isn't it just to let the blacksmith beat something, there is so much reason. ”

Qi Tian pretended to be comforted, and reached out to take the opportunity to grope on Xia Qingxue's smooth back, although he was through the clothes, he could still feel the smoothness and elasticity inside the clothes...

"Brother-in-law, where are we going now?" Xia Qingxue asked.

Qi Tian thought for a moment and said, "Let's go to the dock and have a look." ”

-------

When the two arrived at the dock and looked around, the busy scene of the past was completely gone, only fishermen in twos and threes carried wooden barrels full of live fish ashore for the normal food supply in Yunhai City.

Qi Tian stopped a passing fisherman and asked, "Little brother, where have all the people gone?"

The fisherman frowned and asked, "Don't you know?" ”

Qi Tian nodded, and asked again, "I heard that the docks are all controlled by gangs, don't they care?"

The fisherman immediately became wary and cautiously asked, "Who are you?

Qi Tian smiled "haha" and said: "Don't worry, I'm not a member of the gang, just a passing person, the dock has always been crowded with people in the past, and it suddenly became deserted, and I was a little uncomfortable." ”

The fisherman looked Qi Tian up and down, and then looked at Xia Qingxue behind him, he really didn't look like a member of the gang, so he looked left and right, and said in a low voice: "Little brother, it's okay to leave quickly, the people of the Black Axe Gang will be here soon." ”

"Then what are you going to do?" Qi Tian asked.

The fisherman shook his head and said, "They won't do anything to a little minions like me, they will only look for the leaders." ”

"Isn't it dangerous for those who lead the strike?" Qi Tian asked.

The fisherman spread his hands and put on a helpless posture, "They are all hidden, it will be good to wait for a while, after all, the Black Axe Gang does not dare to do anything to everyone, and they still have to rely on those workers and boatmen to work, but it is difficult for the leader to have a good end." ”

Qi Tian sighed in his heart, and also understood Uncle Fan's thoughts, and even more sighed at his broad mind of sacrificing himself for others.

Recalling that when he talked to Uncle Fan about this matter before, when Uncle Fan heard that the Xia family was willing to give two million gold coins to those workers and boatmen, although his face was hesitant, he quickly agreed, after all, these fishermen and workers have been busy all year long, and they may not be able to accumulate a single gold coin.

Now it only takes seven days to strike, and if you follow the orders of the Xia family, you can get dozens, or even hundreds of gold coins, which is like a pie falling from the sky.

People in the slums south of the city can use the money to eat better, use better, give more food rations to elderly parents and young children, and repair leaky houses.

It's just that after this incident, Uncle Fan will definitely become the target of the Black Axe Gang, and even Uncle Fan himself didn't want to live.

Uncle Fan has always said in the past that he hopes to save some money for Ling'er in his lifetime, even if he is no longer alive one day, Ling'er can live without worrying about food and clothing.

It seems that Uncle Fan really does what he says.

Qi Tian looked at the endless seaside, a fierce gaze flashed in the eyes of the narrow phoenix, and his body faintly exuded a tyrannical momentum.

Xia Qingxue, who was beside him, obviously felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly asked, "Brother-in-law, you... Are you alright?"

Qi Tian's face relaxed, and the tyrannical aura suddenly dissipated, he showed a smile and said, "It's okay, it's just that some people are going to have something." ”

"Someone, who?" Xia Qingxue asked.

Qi Tian smiled without saying a word, and the two walked towards a wine shop.

-------

When night falls, the lights are lit up from house to house, and the streets gradually become more and more men who want to buy drunk.

For the people of Yunhai City, this is just a million ordinary nights, but for the Black Axe Gang and Qi Tian, one means the end of the curtain and the other means the beginning of the excavation.

Qi Tian patted his stomach, looked at the night in the sky, and said to Xia Qingxue: "It's almost time, we should go." ”

Xia Qingxue didn't say a word, picked up the white long sword, and followed her brother-in-law out of the wine shop.

The two of them walked towards the middle den location they had chosen this afternoon.

Qi Tian looked at the target den less than 100 meters away, and wondered in his heart, where is his brother?

"Quack..."

A strange frog call was heard.

Qi Tian followed the sound and saw a young man with a somewhat familiar face standing at the mouth of a dark alley beckoning to him, and the frog cry just now was made by him.

Qi Tian's heart was relieved, it turned out that everyone was hiding here.

He walked into the alley and saw that the dark and narrow alley was crowded with people, and at a glance, there were more than fifty people, each holding utensils of different lengths and wrapped in rags.

Qi Tian knew that it was a weapon, "Why are there so many people? Isn't there thirty people in one stronghold?"

The young man who learned to call frogs said in a low voice: "Boss, the head of the Dragon Five Sect said that there are many people and goods here, so there are many people who are distributed, and he only brought ten people on his side. ”

Qi Tian was a little moved in his heart, Long Wubacheng sent so many people here for the sake of his own safety.

"When to act?"

"Wait for a signal from heaven. The young man replied.

Qi Tian didn't understand, "Signal, what signal?"

"The head of the Dragon Five Sect has already arranged for people to monitor the vicinity of the den where the city guards attacked, and once the city guards start attacking, they will send signal arrows to the sky, and we can go over. The youth explained.

Qi Tian suddenly said in his heart, Long Wu is so skilled and thorough, it is estimated that this kind of thing has been done in the past.

Next, everyone waited quietly in the dark alley for the signal from the sky.

Wait, it's midnight...

Not only did the young people in the alley feel sleepy, but Qi Tian yawned one after another...

At this moment, a bright firework suddenly rose in the originally dark night sky, and with a "pop", it exploded in the sky.
