Destiny Koi, I'm cheating after rebirth

After Xiaotao and Aunt Qin left, Gu Qingzhi became more and more curious about the identity of the cook, Mrs. Li.

So, she couldn't wait to find her brother Gu Yan and asked, "Brother, what's going on with that sister-in-law Li?"

Gu Yan smiled slightly, pointed to Tianji beside him, and said, "Tianji, tell me in detail."

Tianji nodded respectfully, cleared his throat, and began to tell the story from the beginning.

It turned out that when they were preparing to form the maritime guard, the master instructed them to recruit many people who were familiar with water in areas where water transportation was extremely developed.

Mrs. Li and her family have lived by the sea for generations and have long been accustomed to relying on the sea for a living.

However, she and her brother are the only ones left in her family to depend on each other.

Just a few years ago, Madam Li accidentally rescued a poor orphan while she was out.

Perhaps it was fate, but the two of them fell in love with each other and eventually got married.

Afterwards, they still chose to continue making a living on the water, relying on a small fishing boat to go out to sea to fish for a living.

However, with the addition of Li Langjun, their family had two strong laborers, and life became much better.

something unexpected may happen any time.

That time, when they were driving the small fishing boat out to sea, they unfortunately encountered a rare and severe storm.

The wind was howling and the waves were surging. The boat was about to be destroyed and the two people on board were facing a life-and-death crisis.

Just at this critical moment, Tianji was leading a large ship out to sea for sea trials.

Fortunately, they discovered in time that the small boat that Brother Li and others were riding on was struggling in the wind and rain, so they launched a rescue operation without hesitation and successfully rescued them from danger.

After this incident, Tianji saw that Brother Li and the other man had good character, were kind and reliable, and since his master had ordered the formation of a maritime escort team at the time, he took the initiative to ask them if they were willing to join.

After careful consideration, Brother Li agreed, considering that his younger sister was already married and really needed a relatively stable and safe living environment. So after repeated deliberation, he finally plucked up the courage to ask for a job for his sister.

After all, he didn't want his sister and brother-in-law to be separated for a long time.

In this way, he can go out and explore the world with peace of mind.

So, it was natural for Mrs. Li to stay on the ship and work as a cook.

In this way, the three members of their family worked together on the boat.

"So that's the reason!"

Gu Qingzhi sighed, no wonder Sister Li’s cooking skills for river fish were so unique.

The large ship sailed on the river, and the food they needed on a daily basis was almost all obtained locally.

Brother Li has been working in this area since he was a child, and he knows exactly where the big fish and delicious river seafood are hidden.

Whenever he led the crowd to cast nets to catch fish, they never returned empty-handed.

Every meal was filled with sumptuous fish feasts. If the fish could not be finished, Sister Li would pickle the remaining fish and make it into dried fish.

When you come ashore later, these dried fish can still become delicious dishes and will not be wasted at all.

"Master, I have just found out that two teams are closely following our ship." Yuheng hurried over to report to Gu Yan with the latest intelligence in his hand.

Upon hearing the news, Gu Yan, who was originally sipping tea leisurely, slowly put down the teacup in his hand and reached out to take the information handed over by Yuheng.

He quickly scanned the content above, raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "Which two teams?"

Yu Heng quickly replied: "One of the teams is the assassins sent by the Zhou Mansion; as for the other team, after preliminary investigation, they should be members of the Qing Gang."

Upon hearing this, Gu Yan nodded thoughtfully, indicating that he could understand why the Zhou Mansion sent someone here.

But why were those people from the Qing Gang staring at his boat so intently?

He ordered in a slightly lazy tone: "Continue to inquire and make sure to find out what they are trying to do." Their Qixing Tower has been developing rapidly in the past few years and is also a well-known and powerful force in this area. Moreover, this ship was escorted by the Qixing Tower all the way.

All along, they have lived in peace with the Qing Gang and have not interfered with each other. It is really puzzling that they suddenly took action this time.

At this moment, on the small boat on the other side, "Captain, I just noticed that there is also a team lurking there.

Like us, they have their eyes fixed on the huge cargo ship.

"Zhang Qiang!" A rough voice sounded, "Have you found out where those people came from?" The person who spoke was the leader of this team, Zheng Shi.

Zhang Qiang took a deep breath and answered in a low voice: "Boss, it's not clear yet, but judging from their appearance, they should be heading for this ship."

Zheng Shi frowned and thought to himself.

The reason why he took the risk to come here this time was entirely because he received reliable intelligence that the cargo ship was loaded with a large amount of precious goods, whose value was as high as hundreds of thousands of taels of silver.

If they can successfully rob this batch of goods, the brothers will no longer have to work hard for a living for the next few years.

Because of this, he led his brothers without hesitation to quietly approach the target, ready to wait for an opportunity to act.

However, just as they were planning their action, they unexpectedly discovered that there was another group of people secretly spying on the cargo ship.

This put Zheng Shi in a dilemma. If he acted rashly, there was no guarantee that the other party would not take advantage of the situation and destroy his carefully planned plan.

But if I give up just like that, I would feel unwilling.

After all, this wealth is enough to change the fate of all of them.

After careful consideration, the leader decided to hold back for the time being and send someone to find out the other party's background first.

Although he was extremely eager for money, he also knew in his heart that the world was vast and full of strange things.

Some forces cannot be provoked easily, and the slightest carelessness may bring disaster upon oneself.

The reason why he has been able to be successful since he left the Green Gang and went out on his own is because of his caution and alertness.

"Be careful when you go to investigate!" Zheng Shi repeatedly reminded his men, "Don't forget, the gang is still tracking us down.

Once the whereabouts are exposed, the consequences will be disastrous.

Therefore, this operation must succeed and not fail. After we finish this job, we will immediately retire and run away.

Otherwise, if you keep hiding like this, you will be caught by the gang sooner or later. Then..."
