Chapter 367: Don’t let them know (please vote)
Tang Shijiang controlled the screws and threw a carload of grain off the railway track, and unloaded the remaining grain, coal, clothing, medicine, groceries... all off the train.
After the things were unloaded, Brother Tang waved his hand, and two rivets flew over from the locomotive and got into Brother Tang's arms.
These two rivets were the source of the train's loss of control. After the rivets were pulled out, the train began to slow down, and Tang Shijiang and Li Banfeng got off the train together.
Walking on the road, Li Banfeng took a closer look at this senior. From his words and deeds, it was obvious that he was the local god of Heishipo.
But unlike other earth gods, even if Li Banfeng used his Golden Eyes Skill to the maximum, there was no trace of will-o'-the-wisps on his body.
This proves that he is not an undead spirit and his physical body is still there.
Walking to an abandoned factory, Tang Shijiang took a package from the side of the machine tool.
Opening the package, there were two lunch boxes inside, one with rice and the other with vegetables.
Tang Shijiang mixed the rice and vegetables evenly and gave Li Banfeng a lunch box: "Don't dislike it, let's have a meal together."
Li Banfeng worked on a construction site and had an inexplicable affinity for lunch boxes.
There was only one pair of chopsticks, so Tang Shijiang gave it to Li Banfeng and found two branches to use as chopsticks.
"Little brother, these bird people from other states are probably going to fight us for a while, so we can't give in."
Li Banfeng nodded and said: "As long as Brother Tang refuses to give in, I will fight them to the end!"
Tang Shijiang smiled and said, "Don't worry about that, I haven't known how to write the word "coward" since I was born!"
According to Mr. Yao's story, Black Rock Slope was originally the territory of Mr. Train, but was later given to his disciples by Mr. Train.
This Brother Tang should be Mr. Train’s disciple, right?
The two of them had a happy meal, and Tang Shijiang gave Li Banfeng a box of screws: "Brother, take this. Although you are not from my sect, these nails are easy to use, and they can be used as hidden weapons." Easy to use.”
Li Banfeng actually has no shortage of hidden weapons, but since Brother Tang gave them to him, he naturally had to accept them.
Brother Tang gave another instruction: "The eyes of those birdmen from other states are about to turn green because of hunger. They will definitely rob them, and they will probably be tricked.
Don’t be afraid of robbery. Heishipo is a place where you can grow crops. You don’t need to worry about something like this, and you must not worry about it.
What I'm worried about is that the gang of birdmen are here to cause trouble. It's easy to dodge open guns and hidden arrows, so you must be careful. "
……
Tang Shijiang was right. The eyes in the Customs and Defense Department were turning green from hunger.
After eating all the cans and biscuits, they were waiting for this load of grain. However, something happened to the train and not a single grain of grain came back.
The next day, Cheng Mingke just held an important meeting at the Customs and Defense Department. He gave a speech at the meeting. In his speech, he mentioned the word "awe" nine times.
He wanted Puluozhou to be in awe of the Customs and Defense Department and the Customs and Defense Envoy. The key point was to be in awe of him, the official Customs and Defense Envoy.
During the speech, several people fainted due to hypoglycemia, which made Cheng Mingke very dissatisfied.
"We only had a five-hour meeting, and these people couldn't sit still. This is a typical problem of willpower and quality."
Secretary Tong Lingzhu said: "Mr. Cheng, many of them haven't eaten much all day. It's because of their health that they can't hold on..."
"Don't stress to me any objective reasons! Look for more subjective reasons! Look at the deputy defense envoys. Did any of them faint?"
Tong Lingzhu was silent for a moment and raised her head and said to Cheng Mingke: "That's because the limited food in the Customs and Defense Department has been given to several Customs and Defense Envoys. Of course they will not faint when they are full."
Cheng Mingke looked at Tong Lingzhu in surprise. This beautiful and capable secretary was originally admired by Cheng Mingke, but he didn't expect that she would dare to contradict him today.
Tong Lingzhu had endured it for a long time. This new customs envoy had no idea about the situation on Heishipo.
She just found out the details about Cheng Mingke today. Not only did this man not know much about Heishipo, he didn't even know much about Puozhou.
This was his first time serving in Prostate, and he applied the practices from other states to Black Rock Slope.
Cheng Mingke wanted to get angry. If this was out of state, he would scold this ignorant secretary until he doubted his life.
But today he didn't scold him because Tong Lingzhu kept looking at him.
When being looked directly at by subordinates, it is best to control one's emotions. This is his years of experience.
He turned around, picked up the tea cup, and looked out the window as calmly as usual.
He asked Tong Lingzhu to go out. This person would no longer be useful. He would find an opportunity to transfer her away.
Worried about having nothing to eat? Worried that Black Rock Slope will get out of control?
With her little vision and means, she is not qualified for this job.
She refuses to obey orders. No matter how powerful or beautiful such a person is, she cannot be reused.
Cheng Mingke immediately ordered Du Chaohui, the customs officer in charge of logistics, to take people to buy food.
The request this time was very clear. No matter what the means, the food must be bought back, and he also asked two fifth-level cultivators to go with Du Chaohui.
This attitude was already obvious. Du Chaohui could only choose to forcefully buy it, otherwise he would not be able to complete the task.
But in Heishipo, forceful purchase is not that easy.
The boss of Mihang called all the guys, took the guy, and faced Du Chaohui at the entrance of the rice store.
Regardless of their cultivation or equipment, there was a huge gap between the two sides. People like Mi Xing really didn't look good in front of the guards.
But the boss of Mihang showed no fear, and none of his employees flinched.
The onlookers came up, and all their eyes turned to the boss of Mihang.
The owner of Mihang shouted to everyone: "The shop has been open here for decades, and I thank you for taking care of it.
There was no rice in the store today, and someone had to come to buy rice, forcing me to risk my life today.
Having lived to this age, it is enough for me to just stay here today. I just ask all of you, young and old, to bear witness. If someone asks me in the future, please give me some justice! "
There were more and more people watching, and Du Chaohui became more and more nervous.
The people under his command came forward to drive them away, but it was no use. No one listened to their shouts.
Seeing that things were about to get serious, there was a cultivator next to Du Chaohui, named Chen Yusheng, a fifth-level martial arts cultivator.
This man is a smart man and can see the situation clearly.
It is unrealistic to expel everyone at the moment. The most effective way is to immediately bring down the core figure in the incident, which is Mi Xing's boss.
The action must be concealed, and the other party must not be aware of it at all.
You need to be decisive in taking action and avoid a stalemate, otherwise it will lead to a melee and the matter will be serious.
The attack must be ruthless. After knocking him down, he must beat the boss of Mihang half to death on the spot, so that he can't even scream, and directly shock other people.
Chen Yusheng came quietly behind the boss of Mihang and his eyes darkened.
Li Banfeng reached out from his side, grabbed Chen Yusheng's hair, and pushed him to the ground.
The action must be concealed, Chen Yusheng did not notice it. He had to be decisive in his actions. After he was knocked down, Li Banfeng kicked him directly.
Li Banfeng's idea of being ruthless was different from Chen Yusheng's. What he struck was the foot.
As soon as Li Banfeng made a move, the boss of Mihang followed suit, and everyone around watched the excitement.
They've endured this for a long time.
He kicked Chen Yusheng first. Chen Yusheng tried to struggle to get up, but Tang Shijiang kicked him to the ground again.
"Brother," Tang Shijiang lowered his voice, "Don't you want to take care of this matter?"
Li Banfeng kicked him again: "I don't care much, I'm just here to watch the fun."
Tang Shijiang kicked him again: "Don't worry, they can handle this matter themselves."
The kicks of these two people were too heavy, and Chen Yusheng was almost out of breath after receiving a few kicks.
At the same time, Du Chaohui was under siege and the situation was very critical.
There was also a physical cultivator beside Du Chaohui, who easily protected Du Chaohui behind him: "Let me see which one of you dares to come!"
Brother Tang stepped forward and pushed the physical cultivator to the ground, and said to Li Banfeng, "Come here."
The two of them were kicking the body while chatting.
"Brother, let's go first, leave this to me."
"Listen to big brother."
Li Banfeng made up his mind and left Mihang.
……
At dusk, Du Chaohui reported to Cheng Mingke with a bruised nose and swollen face, but the food still hadn't been bought.
Cheng Mingke put the tea cup in his hand on the table and said to Du Chaohui, "Where are the guards I sent to you?"
"They are all seriously injured and are being treated in the infirmary."
"Both the fifth-level cultivators are injured. There is something going on here, and there are special people involved in this matter!
Fu Botai's disappearance is related to these people. We have to dig deep to find these people!
Gather all the dark energy users in the Customs and Defense Department, and the deputy customs and defense envoys who are not out in the field will lead the team. First, go to Mihang, bring Mi back, and bring back the people from Mihang.
This group of people must be so arrogant. They must be under instigation. They will be interrogated strictly tonight and the results must be determined.
If any unrelated persons are involved in this matter, they will be punished with the same crime and will be escorted to the Customs and Defense Department. "
Cheng Mingke gave the order, and Du Chaohui looked on with a look of astonishment.
Cheng Mingke frowned and said, "What are you waiting for? Let's go quickly!"
Du Chaohui asked: "Mr. Cheng, aren't you going?"
Cheng Mingke glared at Du Chaohui, and Du Chaohui quickly left the office.
The sun was about to set. Cheng Mingke stood by the window, looking at the scenery outside the window, remaining calm and calm as always.
He picked up the tea cup and took a sip. Tong Lingzhu opened the door and walked in.
Cheng Mingke frowned slightly. He did not look back, but through the reflection of the glass, he saw Tong Lingzhu.
She didn't even knock on the door. Who could have gotten her into this habit?
Cheng Mingke turned around and put down his teacup, preparing to take this opportunity to teach Tong Lingzhu a lesson.
Tong Lingzhu said: "The general envoy of Guanfang is here."
The tea cup was not placed firmly and fell to the ground. Cheng Mingke did not bother to pick up the tea cup and hurried out to greet the ambassador.
That's strange. When did the chief minister come? Why haven't you received any news before?
As soon as they arrived at the door, Liao Zihui, the chubby customs commander, walked in directly with a friendly smile.
Cheng Mingke quickly asked Tong Lingzhu to make tea. Liao Zihui waved his hand and said, "Don't bother me. I'll leave in a while. Little Tong, you go and do your business first. I have a few words to speak to Mingke alone."
Tong Lingzhu left the office. Liao Zihui sat on the sofa and said to Cheng Mingke: "Mingke, you just came to work in Puzhou. There are a lot of things you don't get used to, right?"
There was something in these words. How could Cheng Mingke not hear it after so many years of stumble? He quickly explained: "General Ambassador Liao, there is something going on in Heishipo right now. I have dealt with it in time..."
Liao Zihui nodded. He already knew Cheng Mingke's handling process, but did not make any comments.
"Mingke, you can't be too hasty when doing things in Puozhou. I don't know if you have read the newspapers recently. There are a lot of news that have linked us with the Jiang Xiang Gang. Some people have even linked us with Ren Yazi, which affects very bad."
"These are all false rumors. We have always maintained a clear boundary with Jiang Xiang's gang," Cheng Mingke had already prepared for this. "I have blocked newspapers spreading such false rumors."
Liao Zihui was silent for a moment and asked: "Mingke, if you can block the newspaper in Heishipo, is it possible that you can block the newspaper in the entire Puo Prefecture?"
Cheng Mingke considered his tone and said to Liao Zihui: "General Ambassador Liao, I think some severe measures should be taken against these unscrupulous newspapers."
Liao Zihui sighed: "You are still too impatient to do things. Let's do this. Pack your things and go to Green Water City with me. I need your help with some work."
Cheng Mingke was stunned for a moment and said: "I'm afraid it's not appropriate for me to leave Heishipo at this time, right?"
"Mingke, here in Black Rock City, we have arranged for another person to take over your job."
Cheng Mingke shook his head and said: "General Ambassador, I don't understand this matter. What is wrong with my work?"
Liao Zihui smiled and said: "This decision is also for your personal safety. Your resume says that you are a second-level dark energy user, but as far as I know, you are only on the first level, right?"
Cheng Mingke's expression remained unchanged. Among the customs guards, it was not uncommon for people to falsely report their level. He neither admitted nor denied it. He said calmly: "I don't think there is any inevitable connection between a person's combat power and ability. I feel……"
"What do you think?" Liao Zihui stopped smiling and his tone became less gentle.
Cheng Mingke realized that he had said something wrong, and there were some words he should pay attention to in front of the ambassador.
Liao Zihui asked: "Do you know how powerful Puozhou is?"
Cheng Mingke thought for a moment and changed his words: "I think what they call tough is just superficial. In essence..."
"Stop talking!" Liao Zihui interrupted Cheng Mingke, "You don't know how strong they are, it doesn't matter, the key is not to let them know.
If you continue to act like this, they will soon find out. "
PS: Liao Zihui appeared in the battle between Lu Chunying and Lu Maoxian, and he ended the fierce battle.
