A knife in love

Chapter 1605

Li Qiufeng looked at Xiao Dong, shopkeeper Hu and others kept rubbing and playing with the silver in the wooden box, with greedy eyes and contempt in his heart.It's just that at this critical juncture, it can be delayed for a moment, so he watched coldly, but he didn't say anything to stop it.However, his thoughts changed sharply, and he had been thinking hard about how to get out.Although this big stone cave must have a waterway leading to the outside, but where can I find it in a hurry?Right now there are more than a dozen people on the boat, including Liusheng Zongyan and Duhuxue, and there are twenty or thirty assassins from the Yagyu clan brought by Shinobu Morita on the platform under the boat.With the strength of Li Qiufeng, Murong Danyan, Qi Jiu, and Xiao Dong, it is certain that they will lose against these Fusang people, not to mention Liu Shengzongyan's wise plan, they will definitely ambush more masters nearby.Even if he, Murong Danyan and Qi Jiu can escape, Wang Xiaoyu and Wang Yuanwai must be out of luck.Li Qiufeng thought of more than a dozen strategies in his mind, but none of them could guarantee that he could escape safely with Murong Danyan, Qi Jiu and Wang's father and daughter.

After a while, Xiao Dong had taken out more than a dozen ingots in rotation from the big wooden box, each ingot was played with in his hand for a while, and then reluctantly put it back into the big wooden box, and then took out another ingot to play with caress.Shopkeeper Hu and others were also like Xiao Dong, constantly taking out and putting in silver from the wooden box, but these shopkeepers were much more dexterous than Xiao Dong.In the end, even Zhang Shi couldn't bear it anymore, and when everyone didn't notice him, he quietly walked to a big wooden box, took out the silver from the wooden box, and kept playing with it, with a strange light in his eyes.

When Li Qiufeng was thinking to himself, he suddenly heard footsteps around him, and someone approached him quietly.Li Qiufeng turned his head to look, only to see Qin Laowu quietly walking beside him, with an ugly expression on his face.Li Qiufeng was taken aback, knowing that he must have something to tell him.I saw Qin Lao Wu standing beside him, lowered his voice and said: "Brother Zhu... no no, Master Li, these coins are weird, the pirates are probably teasing us."

Li Qiufeng was startled, he glanced at Qin Lao Wu, then turned his head to look at Xiao Dong, Zhang Shi, shopkeeper Hu and others who were fiddling with money, thought for a moment, and then whispered to Qin Lao Wu: " Brother Qin, if the money is weird, maybe you can hide it from Mr. Xiao. However, people like Zhang Shi, shopkeeper Hu and others are all big businessmen. .It would be unbelievable if they couldn't see the strangeness of the silver."

When Li Qiufeng said this, he paused for a while, and then continued: "Fifth Brother Qin, you didn't go to check the silver, why did you say that the silver is weird?"

Qin Lao Wu was a little flustered, and said in a trembling voice: "Master Li is right, the villain did not check the silver. Zhang Yuanwai, shopkeeper Hu, they are all well-known big businessmen, and they want to deceive them about the silver. It is harder than climbing to the sky. But please look, Lord Li, those big wooden boxes are too big. If the boxes are filled with silver, they must be placed on thirty or forty floors. Although Lord Xiao, Zhang Yuanwai, Shopkeeper Hu and others are all They are fine people, but when they check the silver, they can only check the top three or four layers of silver. They can't take out the silver below for inspection. That old Japanese pirate has thought about it for a long time to fool us. These big wooden boxes were deliberately used to hold the silver. My lord, since the silver is weird, you must not hand over the things on the boat to the old Japanese pirates."

After listening to Qin Lao Wu's words, Li Qiufeng looked at those big wooden boxes, and his heart was also full of surprises.He thought for a moment, and then said to Qin Laowu: "This old Japanese pirate is clearly deceiving us, and everyone knows it well. But what evidence does Brother Wu have to conclude that he has tampered with the money?"

Qin Laowu turned his head and glanced at the big ship, then lowered his voice and said to Li Qiufeng: "Master Li, according to the agreement between you and the Japanese pirates, they must put at least 20 taels of silver on board. The 20 taels of silver can It's not a small amount. If it really had to be loaded onto the boat, although the small man's big boat is not small, the draft would sink at least three feet. But when the big boat came just now, the small man watched it very carefully. Usually there is not much difference. Later, those black soldiers moved these big wooden boxes off the ship, and the draft of the big ship was only reduced by a few inches."

When Qin Laowu said this, his voice trembled even more.He turned his head and took a sneak peek at Liu Shengzongyan who was standing at the bow, and then said to Li Qiufeng: "Master Li, the silver in the box is definitely weird. If the villain guessed right, I'm afraid only the top three The fourth layer of silver is real, so Master Xiao, Zhang Yuanwai, shopkeeper Hu, etc., although they are fine, have not found anything wrong. The silver below is either fake, or there is no silver at all, but they made a The wooden sandwich, the bottom of the box is empty."

The more Li Qiufeng heard it, the more frightened he became. He thought to himself, he really had a specialization in art, and he didn't even pay attention to whether the draft of the big ship changed.And Qin Lao Wu is good at sailing, and loves this big ship more than his life.Just now when he saw the big ship approaching from the lone peak in the middle of the water, he was both surprised and happy, squeezed to the edge of the platform and stared at the big ship eagerly, for fear of any damage to the big ship, so he was extremely concerned about the draft of the big ship. It is meticulous.Later, the man in Tsing Yi lifted the big wooden boxes down one by one. Qin Lao Wu knew that he couldn't get the money, so he didn't pay much attention to it. The change was not big, so I was shocked to find that the silver in the wooden box was fraudulent.If it weren't for Qin Laowu, an experienced ship boss like Qin Laowu, no one else would have discovered this vision.

Li Qiufeng knew that Liu Sheng Zongyan would never let himself and the others leave. The so-called gift of 10,000+ taels of silver to himself was a lie.It's just that he has no way to get out, so he has no choice but to pretend to be a snake, bargain with Liu Sheng Zongyan, thinking that he can delay for a moment.As for whether the silver in the box was real or not, or whether there was any silver in the box, Li Qiufeng didn't care at all.Hearing Qin Laowu expose Liu Shengzongyan's tricks, although Li Qiufeng was a little surprised, he was not disappointed.Seeing Xiao Dong, Zhang Shi, shopkeeper Hu and others rummaging through the box, Li Qiufeng's heart moved, and he thought to himself, God has eyes to let Qin Lao Wu see that the silver in the wooden box is deceitful.I can use this matter to delay it for another hour and a half.If there is really no other way, simply rush into the big boat with Murong Danyan, Qi Jiu and others, first force Liu Shengzongyan, Duhuxue and others off the big boat, then drive the big boat to the middle of the water, and then try to escape.No matter how capable the Japanese pirates are, they can only stare blankly on the platform.With the help of Qin Lao Wu, a ship boss who is proficient in navigation, it is not easy for Japanese pirates to intercept and kill everyone on the water.As long as you can find a waterway leading to the outside of the cave, you will be able to escape and will not be trapped to death by Japanese pirates.
