I am a pirate in Ming Dynasty

Lu Xinru received an urgent letter from Huzhou Prefecture at the temporary residence of the Jinyi Guards in Yangzhou Prefecture.

After opening it and looking at it, he smiled slightly. Lin Sihan's movements were a little small for the first time. He just sneezed and wanted to do it?

Lu Xinru suddenly chuckled: "Give me a reply to this guy. Just write one sentence: Don't be naughty."

"Sir, is this too simple?" Jin Yiwei, who wrote the article, asked.

"That's all. He knows what to do." After Lu Xinru finished speaking, he focused on the two remaining letters on the table.

The first letter was sent by Jiang Ming. Even with Gu Fengwu, he still couldn't decipher the things behind the Cao Gang. When he looked at the next letter, Lu Xinru's expression was extremely complicated.

This is a letter from the north and a letter from home.

If possible, Lu Xinru really didn't want to open this letter, but her fate still rested in the hands of her family, so she opened the letter with a complicated expression.

"It's so interesting!" After Lu Xinru read it, his face was instantly filled with a lonely look.

Under everyone's puzzled gaze, Lu Xinru, a recognized workaholic, had a rare vacant post.

"Don't I have the right to choose?" Lu Xinru was filled with irritation and resentment for everything he saw.

He rushed into a tavern aimlessly, ordered a bunch of wine and drank it.

The guests next to me were all dumbfounded. They didn't even eat a bite of the food and drank like crazy?

However, those people looked at Lu Xinru's gorgeous clothes and did not dare to come forward to speak until a handsome young man came in at the door.

……

When the shopkeeper saw the young man coming, he immediately found his backbone: "Young Master, look over there. What will we do if something happens while drinking?"

Qin Li waved his hand and signaled to the shopkeeper that there was no need to say anything. He went straight to sit next to Lu Xinru, minding his own business, he took a bowl and poured a glass of wine and said: "Brother, isn't it too lonely to drink bitters with wine? I Let me drink with you."

"Who are you? Why do you want to drink with me?" Lu Xinru's eyes were blurred, and the person in front of him was blurry, but he instinctively rejected them.

Qin Li was not angry when his bowl was knocked away. He continued to take another bowl, poured himself a new bowl of wine, and also poured a glass for Lu Xinru.

"Don't ask where you came from when you drink, just do it!"

Qin Li touched the two bowls together and drank his share. Lu Xinru, who was so drunk, finally sobered up a little, picked up the bowl and drank it in one gulp.

In this way, you two have a bowl, and I have a bowl, and we fight back and forth.

……

After Liu Tiezhu and others lost sight of Qin Shang, they lost their goal of going south. They originally stayed to search everywhere. Unexpectedly, Huang Jun and others left directly at dawn and did not stay here to search with them. .

One thousand taels of silver were obtained, but Liu Tiezhu lost the purpose of his search.

Even if Yixing County stays, it doesn't make much sense.

It was noon, and Lu Da and others who had gone out came back. With tired faces on their faces, they all came into the room. They first picked up the warm water on the table and drank a bowl each of them. After warming themselves up, they said: "Boss, It’s useless, we’ve already checked the surrounding area, and we can’t find out where Huang Ying and the others have gone.”

Liu Tiezhu has already thought of this. If Qin Shang really wants to hide, it will be strange if you can find him.

If he didn't stay, Liu Tiezhu wouldn't know what to do.

He is now betting that Qin Shang disappeared for no reason. With that guy's shrewdness, he must be planning something. Not only that, he even noticed that besides Brother Shang, there are some people helping Qin Shang behind the scenes. .

It has been three days since Qin Shang disappeared. If there was any accident, it would be useless to find him now.

"We are ready to return!" Liu Tiezhu said as if he was very determined.

"Go back?" Lu Da and others looked at each other, and no one spoke for a while.

"Go back," Liu Tiezhu continued: "What if we searched everything within a hundred miles of this place? Huang Ying has been missing for three days, and we have already dug three feet of ground around here. If we leave any more What’s the point of going down?”

"You have seen the people from Jinyiwei, you have also seen those who sneak attacked at night. Many of our brothers are still lying in bed? Can't you see?"

"Stay, why should we stay? Is it just because you all fell asleep during the vigil? Or is it because you don't respond quickly to customers?"

Liu Tiezhu's anger could no longer be suppressed, and his roar made several banner leaders lower their heads in shame.

No complaints? How can it be.

Qin Shang went south. This was not a planned itinerary. Brother Shang seemed to be indifferent to everything, but his behavior along the way was that he was extremely dissatisfied with the Jiujiang Escort Agency.

Liu Tiezhu was quite satisfied with his brothers at first, but now he is extremely dissatisfied. His performance along the way has been extremely disappointing. If the news of Brother Shang's disappearance is spread back, who knows how much of an uproar it will cause.

"Boss, let's search again. We will definitely urge the brothers to search carefully."

Lu Da and others said in unison.

"No," Liu Tiezhu rubbed his aching head and said, "Continuing to delay is just a waste of time. I feel deeply about this trip south. It was a simple night attack when we had strict protection. It’s a complete mess.”

"These two thousand taels of silver are not a reward for our hard work. This is a slap in our face. The Jiuzhou Escort Agency has been completely disgraced!"

Liu Tiezhu never said anything harsh. Even during training, he was always talking and laughing with everyone, and even hung out together more often. He never lost his temper once.

Even when he is on a mission, he treats everyone in a friendly manner and has no airs at all.

This time it changed from normal, Lu Da and others all fell silent.

Liu Tiezhu looked at this group of people and made a decision in his heart. He had previously wanted to build the Jiuzhou Escort Bureau into a big force, but he never thought of the principle of biting off more than he could chew. There were too many people in the Jiuzhou Escort Bureau, but the quality But it fell without limit.

To achieve Qin Shang's original goal, the Jiuzhou Escort Bureau must change, otherwise no matter how many people there are, they will be nothing more than a ragtag group of people.

Lu Da and others had their own thoughts at the moment. Most of them were still a little uncomfortable with Liu Tiezhu's sudden change, but they didn't expect that the truly unbearable days were yet to come.

At least for now, the so-called life and death darts of Jiuzhou Escort Bureau have become a joke.

The strong man Liu Tiezhu cut his wrists. He no longer cared about the rumors that this business deal going south would cause in the world. He insisted on dragging everyone in the Jiuzhou Escort Bureau back to Nanzhili.

The brothers of the escort agency who were originally scattered around received orders to assemble almost at the same time. When everyone was wondering why the order was changed from morning to night, Liu Tiezhu directly announced the order to return north.

The life and death darts disappeared at this moment, and the feeling of having their blood extinguished suddenly echoed in everyone.

……

Huang Jun sent all the other servants back to the Huang family's private residence in Nanzhili. He originally wanted to keep them to take care of the eldest lady, but now that the eldest lady has disappeared, they have naturally become a burden following him.

At any rate, Nanzhili had the private residences he had purchased before, plus some business shops, so these servants could still survive in Nanzhili. As for himself, he had more important things to do.

Before coming here, the old master Qian Ding Lingwan told her to take good care of the eldest lady, but now the eldest lady is hard to find, the Cao Gang has undergone tremendous changes, and all the original plans have been overthrown.

What's even more frightening is that the guard dog Jinyiwei is no longer guarding the emperor in Kyoto, but has actually gone south.

Without any support, Huang Jun thought of the person recommended by his old master before coming. There might be a way to find that person.

There seemed to be no one in the dilapidated tavern. There was only an old man lying on a chair, swaying, and next to him was a small charcoal stove with a pot of wine warming on it.

The faint aroma of wine floated throughout the tavern. Even Huang Jun, who was used to drinking strong liquor, wanted to praise the good wine.

But now is obviously not the time to drink, so he coughed slightly before saying: "Ye Yufeng comes to the building outside the building!"

The old man on the recliner immediately opened his eyes and stared at the other person with sharp eyes: "Go across the river and cross the waves with a broad boat."

"Drunk to listen to the wind and rain, wake up to listen to the kite."

"The clouds above the blue sea are filled with sorrow and the sun is broken."

"I didn't expect that so many years have passed and there is still an old friend visiting. Can you explain your purpose of coming?" The old man said bluntly, as if he didn't seem to care much about the identity of the visitor.

"Senior, this junior is from Fujian, and his name is Huang Jun. Our Huang family has an eldest lady, named Huang Ying. Previously, because of..." Huang Jun told the story of the future, and then stood motionless on the edge, for fear of offending the person in front of him. The old man was unhappy.

The old man nodded and said: "At present, Huang Ying should be fine. If the Jin Yiwei intervenes, things will be much more complicated. The Jin Yiwei came here for the Cao Gang before, but they just happened to catch traces of your Huang family."

"According to the information sent by all parties so far, Jinyiwei only knows that there is someone who is doing business with the Cao Gang, but they don't know who you are."

"Senior, you can rest assured. We basically use fake names when we go out to do things. Even the head of the Caobang has only met us a few times, and the others know nothing about us." Huang Jun hurriedly explained.

The old man smiled and said: "If you don't act carefully, you won't be able to come here to meet me. Don't treat the Jin Yiwei gang as trash."

"A skinny camel is bigger than a horse. The royal guards are crouching tigers, hidden dragons. Some masters of investigating crimes will be as sensitive as a dog's nose and bite your tail."

"This time your fortune is good, but next time, you may not be so lucky!"
