"Xiao Dingma, why are you doing this?" Zhuang Haoren looked at the servant girl held hostage between the two strong men with a look of compassion. Her hair had fallen apart, her face was swollen, and there were blood stains on the corners of her mouth. [No pop-up novel website]
"After all, you have been a 'girl', covered in silk and satin, and enjoyed a lot of food and drink. Now you have been reduced to being an aunt and eating scraps. Why should you be so loyal?" Zhuang Haoren raised her chin, " I'd better talk about morality now, otherwise, how about asking someone to strip you naked and hang you from a roof beam to serve you? You probably feel that you have been a girl in the yard before, and being whipped with salt water and kneeling with iron chains is a common occurrence. You may not be able to bear it, but I, Brother Chen, used to eat in the courtyard and specialize in punishing disobedient girls. No matter how hard you are, you will become a slut in his hands!"
The maid gritted her teeth and refused to speak. Zhuang Haoren squinted his eyes, and a skinny, wretched man came over with a smile. He held a box in his hand and placed it on the table in front of the maid. He said solemnly Unlock the thing and lift the lid. The dark things inside are all kinds of torture instruments. Although they are not large in size, each one has a ferocious face and shines with a dark evil light.
"How's it going? Little Ding, your body is still very delicate, why do you have to go through such hardship?" Zhuang Haoren whispered, stroking the back of her neck with one hand, lightly touching the base of her ear, letting her Her body trembled, "It's still too late to regret now." He signaled, and someone brought another white ingot of silver, a total of fifty taels.
"How's it going? Don't worry too much." Zhuang Haoren's mouth went to the back of her neck,
"Recognize it?" Qian Shuixie asked.
"Yes, it has been confirmed that it is Hao Yuan!" Zhao Tong couldn't restrain his excitement, "The maid on the ship identified him from sketches and photos!"
"Great! Act now!"
As soon as Zhuang Haoren left, the special reconnaissance team and the personnel from Sticking Office immediately entered combat deployment╠╠There is a time limit for kidnapping people on the ship. Once the servant woman does not return to the ship on time, Hao Yuan will inevitably escape immediately. Therefore, Qian Shui Association has issued an order in advance: everyone is ready to attack as soon as they get accurate information.
"No one on board is allowed to escape." Qian Shuixie put on his whole body. "Anyone who tries to escape will be shot without mercy, but we should try our best to capture him alive. If he can't be caught, his body will be left behind!"
The latest order from the Executive Committee has been sent from Lingao. Even if Hao Yuan cannot be caught and can only be killed in a closet, he must try to keep the body and send it to Lingao for medical examination.
Under the glass lampshade are the words "Zicheng" embossed in relief. The candle burns high. Candles are also located in Guangzhou Zichengji, and the price is three times that of the best candles on the market. However, it burned brightly and had no odor, so it became a household item that dignitaries flocked to. "Fangfei Drizzle Boat" is a business of wealthy people, so naturally they spend a lot of money to buy such novel and useful objects.
Under the candlestick, Hao Yuan was writing quickly. It was still bright at this time, but the cabin was small. In order to hide the eyes of the outside world, the windows of his cabin were covered with bamboo curtains, so the cabin was very dark. Even in broad daylight. To read and write, candles must be lit.
He has been lurking on this ship for more than ten days. The boat was rented by his subordinate Dong San who paid a lot of money. He ordered everyone on board to just serve him well and not to bother with anything else.
For more than ten days, Hao Yuan has been feeling a little depressed. Xihua's rebellion and the failure of the operation gave him a big blow.
This was the first time he encountered such an obvious failure since arriving in Hangzhou. In particular, Xihua's rebellion caused his well-prepared sneak attack on Wanbi Bookstore to cause a fire in Hangzhou, blaming Zhao Yingong, and forcing the Kun thieves to withdraw from Hangzhou.
However, this was not the biggest shock to him╠╠Although he did not participate in the attack on the villa, he soon learned everything that happened outside the villa. The operation that had been carefully planned for several months was easily resolved by a few shots. These thieves indeed have the most powerful power as the master said.
So he didn't dare to slack off at all. Following the method his master taught him back then, he immediately lurked in the city and used messengers and traffic stations to keep in touch with other people.
Although he has no subordinates around him, he has a clear grasp of every move in and outside Hangzhou and the situation of the organization.
Hao Yuan did not dare to run away, and his organization had only been in existence for more than two years. Although there is a group of confidants and backbones, the organization is not yet tight. Once I leave Hangzhou, I will not be able to effectively control the entire organization. Over time, it may collapse and deteriorate.
His choice to lurk in the boat on the West Lake was carefully considered. Boat cruises have always been a place that the government does not interfere with. As long as they give enough money, the prostitutes will be tight-lipped. West Lake is outside Hangzhou. It is very convenient for contacting organizations, obtaining information, and escaping in case of crisis.
However, if we continue to hide like this, how can we take the next step?
The cooperation with Shi Weng has ended, Cao Guangjiu was killed, and the three escorts from Beijing were also silenced. The relationship was cleanly severed. But Zhao Yingong's counterattack is also very strong now, and he has the intention of not stopping until he is eliminated. Could it be that the other party has smelled something?
Recently, Jia Le was arrested again╠╠This is somewhat expected and expected. Many people in the organization have been assassinated and kidnapped recently, but most of them are grassroots personnel and do not affect the overall situation. Jia Le is the first more important person.
But Jia Le's arrest poses no threat to him or the entire organization. She doesn't know many of the organization's secrets, nor does she know where Hao Yuan and other leaders are hiding.
However, he felt very sorry for Jia Le. She was very smart and was taught by him personally. In his heart, he has regarded her as his apprentice.
When the news of Jia Le's arrest came, he once thought of trying to rescue her. However, he remembered what his master once said: Once these "Australians" know his existence, they will use all means without mercy. to destroy him.
"Surviving at this time is the most important thing. Only by surviving can you have the opportunity to educate more people. Be patient."
To say the least, he didn't have the ability to rescue Jia Le at the moment. The only thing he could do was wait for the opportunity.
After he finished writing the letter to Li Da, Li Er and others, he sealed the letter and sent it out tomorrow when Xiao Ding's mother went out to buy. After writing for a long time, I felt a little tired, so I stood up and went to the outer cabin.
The outer cabin is used as a living space for distinguished guests. It is not a large space but is beautifully decorated. In the middle is a small square table, and Meiyan'er is sitting at the table, concentrating on peeling lotus seeds.
Because there was no banquet on the ship, and it was really hot in the summer, she didn't wear the complicated outfits she used to wear. She only wore a lake-colored skirt, a linen hat, and her black hair was only loosely knotted. A bun with a beaded hairpin inserted into it.
"Are you making ice bowls again?" Hao Yuan smiled and sat down on the couch by the window, "Isn't it too troublesome?"
Ice bowl. Put a few pieces of crushed cooked water ice in a small bowl, put fresh lotus root slices, fresh lotus seeds, fresh walnuts on top of the ice cubes... and pour a thin layer of sugar juice. It tastes sweet and refreshing, and is a seasonal snack on board.
The ice bowl sounds simple, but actually it takes a lot of effort to prepare the ingredients. It is a typical thing for wealthy people who spend their time and eat something interesting.
"The weather is hot, and you are bored on the boat every day. I'm afraid you will lose your appetite. This one is refreshing and appetizing. It will relieve the heat." Meiyan'er said with a smile.
Hao Yuan laughed and didn't take it seriously╠╠Although he came to Ming Dynasty not long ago, he has a lot of experience. I know how gentle and considerate prostitutes are. Naturally, you won’t be confused by this.
"I'm fine. It's only been ten days. You guys are on the boat every day and you don't feel bored?"
"The slaves just live on the water. Once they are used to it, they feel that they are free on the water." Meiyan'er said with a smile, "Not to mention it is convenient in the West Lake."
"Hangzhou is indeed the most beautiful place in the south of the Yangtze River. Your boat is even more of a paradise," Hao Yuan said with a smile, "Although the weather is so hot, there is still ice in summer."
Meiyan'er lowered her head and peeled the lotus seeds while saying, "You guys don't know the troubles here. The ice used to make ice bowls is not the river ice in the ice cellar. If you eat it, you will get upset. You need to find a place in winter. , if you have a big yard, use a special clean wooden box to fill it with cooked water, then cover it and leave it in the yard to freeze overnight. The box cannot be big, otherwise it will not freeze. After freezing, send it to the ice cellar. Keep it. Take it out in the summer. The ice is small, and you have to use large pieces of ice to keep it from melting into water. It takes a lot of work to make a small bowl." She looked up and looked outside, and then said, "Xiao Ding's mother hasn't come back yet. My mother is still waiting for her to buy the winter melons from Wang Yuanzi to make winter melon cups."
"Oh? Make a winter melon cup and go to a designated place to buy winter melon?"
"Why not? This winter melon cup requires the most work, and it needs good winter melon. It won't work if it's old, or if it's young." Meiyan'er waved her aching hand, "If she doesn't come back, it will be too late to clean up... …”
Hao Yuan was startled. Mei Yan'er said for the second time that Xiao Ding's mother "isn't back yet". Xiao Ding's mother usually went ashore to do shopping, but there was no timetable for coming and going, so she didn't care about it on weekdays. But now that Mei Yan'er has said "I won't come back yet", it means that the time Xiao Ding's mother spends going to work today has been much longer than before...
Before he could turn his thoughts around, there was a splashing sound from the bow of the boat, and the boatman exclaimed: "You are ╠╠" before his words could be finished, someone had already cut him off.
Hao Yuan instantly pulled out the dagger from his waist, and with his other hand pulled out a short-eyed blunderbuss from under the wooden couch. Without thinking about anything, he fired at the bow hatch of the ship.
