A knife in love

Chapter 3027

Listening to Meng Fu'an's words, Ding Guan thought to himself, the Qin family is a well-known big businessman in the Central Plains, both black and white must give the Qin family face, and he is used to domineering, thinking that Songtian Yandao is the same as Luoyang Prefecture in Henan, Songtian The officials sent by the family on the island all want to cater to the Qin family.But he didn't expect that this is the territory of the Fusang people, how could they pamper the Qin family like the Luoyang magistrate's yamen?This shopkeeper Qin is so arrogant, it must be bad luck.

When Ding Guan was thinking about it, he only heard Meng Fu'an say: "Many merchants who came to Songtianyan Island to do business were panicked after the disturbance caused by the treasurer Qin. Those who originally planned to go to sea in the next few days also changed their minds and dared not go to sea easily. Instead, stay on the island and wait and see, so as not to encounter pirates at sea."

When Meng Fu'an said this, he paused for a while, and then continued: "I think that since the sea is not peaceful, brother should stay for a few more days, and wait until the Songtian family sends warships to sweep the sea off Songtianyan Island and drive out the pirates. It is not too late to set sail at anchor."

After listening to Meng Fu'an's words, Ding Guan bowed his hands to thank him, thinking that Li Qiufeng was in a hurry to go to Fusang country, and this matter must not be delayed.Therefore, after a few polite words with Meng Fu'an, he bid farewell to him, and still walked towards the west side of the pier, intending to complete the customs clearance first, and set sail to sea as soon as possible, so as not to miss the important event.Seeing that Ding Guan didn't listen to his persuasion, Meng Fu'an didn't force himself. He gathered with more than a dozen businessmen and discussed in a low voice how to leave Songtian Rock Island safely.

When Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan heard what Ding Guan said, they were both surprised and uncertain.Murong Danyan thought for a moment, then said: "Since Mr. Ding intends to leave Songtian Rock Island today, why did he say he failed to complete the defense?"

Ding Guan said with a smile on his face: "After I led my servants out for more than ten feet, I remembered what Uncle Li said about visiting Qingtianju overnight. My heart moved and I couldn't help but stop. Although I am stupid, I have been to Songtian Yandao after all. Several times, I have never encountered such a weird thing. Uncle Li once told my subordinates that when he and Miss Mu were wandering on the island yesterday, they encountered a fight between people from the rivers and lakes. Although Uncle Li did not explain it in detail, if it was not The relationship is very important, and Uncle Li will never take the risk and visit Qingtianju at night. It is absolutely not easy to speculate about the fight between the Jianghu figures yesterday. If these Jianghu figures were not extremely powerful, the Matsuda family would have already suppressed them , will not sit idly by. It’s just that these people from the rivers and lakes are fighting on the island. Even if the Matsuda family intends to suppress them, they want to rely on Matsuda Rock Island to make a fortune. Naturally, they must ensure the safety of the island. If the guess is correct, the Matsuda family sent troops to ambush in the sea near Matsuda Rock Island, pretending to be pirates, and interrogating the passing ships, in order to capture or kill those people who made trouble on the island at sea. It is indeed a clever plan to kill two birds with one stone, not only get rid of disobedient people in the rivers and lakes, but also not cause waves on Songtian Rock Island.

"Thinking of this, I'm afraid that the Songtian family is going to deal with Uncle Li and Miss Mu. If they have completed the defense and set off immediately, they will definitely arouse the suspicion of the Songtian family and attack us at sea. Even if they are not going to capture and kill Uncle Li And Miss Mu, but it will cause a lot of trouble. It's better to stay on the dock for a while and wait and see. In order to preserve the reputation of Songtian Rock Island, the Songtian family will never make any big moves on the island. We might as well let them toss around at sea until the storm After calming down, we will go to sea to Fusang again, but it is not too late."

When Ding Guan said this, he paused for a while, and then continued: "I made my own decision. I didn't go to the customs defense, so I hurried back and planned to discuss this matter with Uncle Li and Miss Mu. If Uncle Li Miss He Mu thinks that we have to go to sea immediately without any delay, so we will get off the boat immediately to complete the customs clearance, and we can go to sea today without any delay."

Li Qiufeng nodded after listening to Ding Guan's words, and said in his mouth: "Mr. Ding, although you didn't say it clearly, you guessed that among the people who were fighting on Songtian Rock Island, there were Li and Miss Mu. no?"

Ding Guan didn't expect Li Qiufeng to say such a sentence, his body trembled, he shook his head again and again, cupped his hands and said, "I don't dare, I don't dare."

Li Qiufeng smiled slightly, and said in his mouth: "Mr. Ding is not afraid of being so frightened. Since we are on this boat, we must take care of each other. You guessed that Li and Miss Mu caused trouble on Songtian Rock Island, and the Songtian family After the Liangzi was settled, the Matsuda family sent people to ambush us at sea to intercept us, so they planned to stay at the pier for a few days, wait and see the situation, and then set sail when the Matsuda family relaxed. You and Miss Mu are safe. Mr. Ding, is Li right?"

Ding Guan didn't dare to speak, he just bowed repeatedly.Li Qiufeng said: "Master Yang invited Mr. Ding to help, and he really did not find the wrong person. Mr. Ding is not only cautious in his work, but also has great wisdom. Although he has not seen it with his own eyes, he guessed it very well. To tell the truth, Li and Ms. Mu saw the people fighting in the Jianghu on the island yesterday, and they did participate in it, and met the leader of the Songtian family."

Hearing what Li Qiufeng said, Ding Guan felt a chill in his heart, and couldn't help but look up at Li Qiufeng.As soon as their eyes met, Ding Guan's body trembled, and he hurriedly lowered his head again, not daring to say a word.I only heard Li Qiufeng continue to say: "But Mr. Ding, you can rest assured that Li and Miss Mu have not had any trouble with the Songtian family, and the Songtian family sent people to search at sea, and it is not to deal with Li and Miss Mu. But this matter It's extremely troublesome, and it will always be inconvenient if we meet the Matsuda family again. Therefore, Mr. Ding's idea is very good, we might as well stay at the dock for a while, and it will not be too late to sail out to sea after the weather calms down."

After listening to Li Qiufeng's words, Ding Guan finally felt relieved, and said with a smile on his face: "Uncle Li said so, so I feel relieved. There are no less than four or five hundred ships moored at the pier. The Songtian family wants to keep Songtian Rock Island We will never go to war on the island or the pier, so we will stay on board without any trouble. Yesterday, my servants were ordered to go ashore to buy food and water, enough for our big boats to last for three to five days. Don't worry about Uncle Li and Miss Mu."

Seeing Ding Guan's thoughtful thinking, Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan admired him even more, and praised him one after another.Ding Guan waved his hands again and again, not daring to take credit.The three chatted for a while, Ding Guan bid farewell to Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan, and hurriedly left the cabin.After the sound of Ding Guan's footsteps disappeared, Li Qiufeng chatted with Murong Danyan again, and then he took out a copy of Romance of the Three Kingdoms, opened it and read it carefully.Seeing that Li Qiufeng was devoting himself to his studies, Murong Danyan didn't dare to disturb him, so he bid farewell to him, went back to his cabin, sat cross-legged on the bed, meditated and practiced Qi.Just thinking of the turmoil on Songtian Rock Island in the past two days, I can't calm down no matter what.Thinking of that stubborn young man again, I thought to myself that since we can't go to sea for the time being, we might as well wait for an opportunity to rescue him, bring him to the big ship, and then bring him to Fusang without anyone noticing.In this way, no matter how powerful the Matsuda family is, it cannot be considered that we have left Matsuda Rock Island.
