"Qiao Fa, you privately resold the scarce goods in Jiangdong, and you have brought this upon yourselves."

"No one can save you."

Xiao Qiao is beautiful, but she is ruthless.

"The behavior of your father and brothers almost brought disaster to my Qiao family!"

"When I go back, I will report the truth to Marquis Wu and bring your father and brothers to justice."

Although Xiao Qiao is a woman and a hostage, she has a strong aura when she is angry.

After a few words, Qiao Fa was frightened to the point of paleness and trembling all over.

Then he saw that Xiao Qiao did not give him a chance to live, and then he remembered Tang Jian behind him.

So he kowtowed to Tang Jian again and said:

"Sir! Sir, save me, but don't let me be caught by the second lady!"

Tang Jian snorted coldly and said:

"You cherish your life, and ask for help from everyone you see."

"In the end, no one can save you, right?"

Qiao Fa knocked his head to the ground, and the whole person was stunned.

Tang Jian asked again: "It's not that I can't forgive you."

"Write down all the supply channels you mentioned with pen and paper. After my people verify them, I will give you another task."

"After you finish that task, you will be free."

Qiao Fa was surprised and said:

"Please untie me, sir. I will write it now, now!"

Tang Jian asked someone to bring paper and pen, and asked someone to look at Qiao Fa and let him write down the supply channels he knew.

Qiao Fa knelt in front of the table and wrote furiously. After writing, he took it up and blew the ink dry, then presented it to Tang Jian with both hands.

After reading it, Tang Jian called Zhang He and showed him the list of channels.

Zhang He was illiterate, so Tang Jian asked Qiao Fa to read it to him again.

After reading it, Zhang He nodded and confirmed:

"These channels do exist."

"However, since they have no background support, their sales volume is not as good as the Qiao family, and their delivery speed is not as fast as the Qiao family."

"Since they cannot compete with the Qiao family, they rarely transport goods to Jiangdong in recent years."

Tang Jian heard Zhang He's confirmation and knew that there were indeed such channels.

So, he patted Qiao Fa's shoulder and said:

"Congratulations, you can survive."

After hearing this, Qiao Fa showed a flattered expression on his face and was about to bend down to thank him.

"But..."

Tang Jian's words made him tense again.

"I want you to do one more thing."

After hearing this, Qiao Fa knew that he was not far from escaping, so he nodded and said:

"Sir, please speak, sir, please speak!"

Tang Jian nodded and said, "I want you to take a message back, saying that the Qiao family breached the contract first, and now Xiao Qiao has been captured by me."

"Let the Qiao family take out five times the goods to redeem Madam Xiao Qiao."

"I will only wait for three days, and I will not wait after that."

Xiao Qiao on the side heard this and said quickly: "Qiao Fa! Do you dare to agree to it?"

Qiao Fa looked at Xiao Qiao and then at Tang Jian.

Then he thought Tang Jian was more dangerous.

After all, being prosecuted by Wu Hou was a matter for the future, and he still had time to escape.

But if he didn't agree now, this gentleman could really stuff him with stones and sink him into the river!

So, he made a choice quickly.

"Don't worry, sir. I will definitely pass on the message."

Tang Jian came to his ear again and said slowly:

"When you go back, don't play tricks. We can defeat the Qiao family's 500 soldiers and horses, and we can also defeat more people. See-"

Tang Jian pointed to the fleet in the distance.

"Those are all my people." Qiao Fa nodded repeatedly.

Tang Jian said again:

"Also, we can capture Xiao Qiao without anyone noticing, and we can also kill you without anyone noticing. Do you understand?"

Qiao Fa was so scared that his fat body trembled, and he knelt down and said: "I understand! I understand!"

Tang Jian finally nodded, then stood up and came to Xiao Qiao.

Xiao Qiao was a little nervous: "What are you going to do?"

Tang Jian said: "Nothing, just afraid that the Qiao family doesn't believe that the lady is in my hands, and I want to borrow a token from the lady and let Qiao Fa take it back."

Xiao Qiao was kidnapped in her sleep, so she naturally didn't wear any jewelry when she slept.

In addition to the clothes on her body, she only had a delicate handkerchief.

Xiao Qiao also saw Tang Jian trying to take her handkerchief, and quickly hid it behind her.

Tang Jian went up and forced her into a corner, snatched the handkerchief, and then walked over to give it to Qiao Fa.

"You know what to do."

Qiao Fa quickly replied:

"I know, I know!"

Tang Jian then asked Zhang He to give him a small boat, and then lowered him with a rope.

Qiao Fa rowed the boat and left the sailboat.

Then he rowed faster and faster.

Finally, amid the laughter of the guards, he stumbled and climbed onto the shore.

In the distance, many QiaoThe family came to help him.

Then they carried him to the dock.

In the cabin.

Xiao Qiao crossed her arms and glared at Tang Jian angrily.

If looks could kill, Tang Jian would have been ground into dust by her look at this moment.

Tang Jian curled his lips and said, "Why are you glaring at me like that? I didn't do anything to you."

Xiao Qiao glanced at him and turned her face away angrily.

She knew that she was in danger, so she stopped making some unnecessary moves.

She just sat on the couch with her knees hugged.

After a long time, she suddenly said something.

"Your Excellency has robbed so many goods this time, and Wu Hou will know about it sooner or later."

"By then, not only will you face Wu Hou's pursuit, but also implicate my Qiao family. Why bother?"

As soon as Tang Jian heard it, he knew that this clever little ghost wanted to persuade him to give up this batch of goods.

However, these goods are the most important screw in his early business.

If he can't insist on getting them, everything in the future will be empty talk.

Because you can't take thousands of people to the battlefield empty-handed, right?

So he smiled lightly and said:

"Don't worry about these, Madam."

Xiao Qiao heard this and saw that this man was not willing to listen to her, and her pretty face flushed with anger.

She glanced at Tang Jian fiercely, and then turned away.

Seeing this, Tang Jian just smiled lightly and walked out.

In the afternoon, it was time for dinner.

Tang Jian opened the cabin door and brought Xiao Qiao a few cakes and two pieces of meat jerky.

Xiao Qiao ignored him.

Tang Jian shook his head and thought that he didn't do anything to her. He was obviously taking hostages, but he made it look like a couple in a cold war. I'm afraid he is the only one in the world.

Then, Tang Jian said, "Madam Xiao Qiao, there are still three days before the delivery. If you don't eat or drink, you will starve to death."

Xiao Qiao said unhappily, "None of your business!"

"I didn't complete the task assigned to me by Gongjin, nor did I save the Qiao family from danger."

"It would be better to die like this."

After saying that, he buried his head between his knees and sobbed.

Tang Jian chewed a piece of meat jerky and said, "Madam, you are crying for such a small matter?"

"Isn't this something that can be solved very easily?"

Xiao Qiao tilted her head slightly, glared at Tang Jian with her red eyes, and sobbed, "It's all because of you, you bastard, who caused me to fall into trouble, and now you are still talking nonsense."

"I am now in prison and have not accomplished anything, all thanks to you!"

After saying that, she cried even more sadly, with pearls falling on the jade plate.
