Why there are always tears in my eyes is because I love this land deeply...
There are few people whom Song Che admires, and Gao Chen is one of them.
He, a high-ranking official in the imperial court, could be so humble to a businessman. If such a person dies, who will protect his family and country?
"Then Li Youtian should die," Song Che pointed out three fingers again: "There are three reasons -
First, the death of the capital of Yangzhou can divert domestic conflicts and unite the military and civilians to deal with the outside world;
Second, now that Master Jia has been expelled from the capital, even if the traitors are still there and the power in the DPRK has been greatly weakened, you can take the opportunity to support a close confidant and take office as the capital of Yangzhou. In this way, it can also bring great benefits to Huainan's anti-Japanese war. great convenience;
Third, you can use the Japanese pirate's sword to eliminate dissidents, and you can hide behind the scenes, and no one will suspect you. This is called treating others in their own way. "
Fourth, it is Song Che's own selfishness and the reason why he appears here. If the new capital of Yangzhou is a close confidant of Gao Chen, he can also rely on his relationship with Gao Chen to find ways to sharpen his sword against Yang's business firm.
The Yang family and his son are not only full of evil, but also a stumbling block on his way to becoming the richest man in Jiangnan. Whether it is from soil or business, the Yang family must disappear from this world.
Gao Chen's sorrow suddenly disappeared and he said decisively: "Everything will be arranged by Sir."
Song Che said again:
"Ten miles further ahead is the Yangzhou Pier. As soon as you set foot on land, someone will be watching you. You must not be too obvious, lest you alert the enemy;
Our conversation must not be known to outsiders, including setting up an ambush in the Eight Immortals Tower tonight, which must be arranged secretly. Use virtual and real cover as the main method, and only then can you kill the Japanese by taking them by surprise;
Tonight's main theme is 'killing with a borrowed knife', so the person must be killed in the melee. If successful, a fire will be set on the Eight Immortals Tower, with the intention of destroying the corpse and eliminating traces;
I personally suggest that Mr. Gao can let himself suffer some non-fatal injuries and perform a "bitter flesh trick", which can better get rid of suspicion and shut up those who want to take the opportunity to create public opinion. "
At this point, he pointed to Jiang Yun at the stern of the boat:
"This good friend of mine has a man who is invincible and brave. With him here, not only thirty Japanese pirates, but also three hundred will die. Tonight, he will personally protect Gao Da Rao's safety."
The morning light breaks here, diluting the heavy fog, and it is about to light up.
The plan was abandoned, and Jiang Yun rowed Gao Chen back to the warship.
Before Gao Chen boarded the ship, Song Che suddenly stopped him and asked the question that had been buried in his heart for a long time:
"Ning Yehong, are you okay?"
Gao Chen smiled and said: "She is in Chuzhou and everything is fine. If Mr. Song wants her, I can summon her."
Just fine. Song Che smiled and shook his head: "The tall man is slow to learn."
Jiang Yun boarded the official ship with Gao Chen.
The official ship soon surpassed the light boat and disappeared into the mist.
Song Che was the only one left on the river. He stood on the bow of the boat with his hands folded, calmly looking up at the morning sun. His long hair and wide sleeves fluttered in the wind, as if he was alone in the world.
One person and one boat, one quiet and one moving.
One journey, one lifetime.
Even if the fog and clouds fill the air, you can finally see the world through a ray of light and see it clearly.
…
After returning to Fuman Inn, Song Che packed his luggage and planned to say goodbye to Yangzhou.
"Brother, this book contains a plan to improve the drinking. You must read it carefully when you go down."
Now that distillation technology has been popularized, let's create innovations in categories. In addition to daily sorghum and wheat, glutinous rice, sweet potatoes, grapes and various fruits can be fermented. As long as you study carefully, you will definitely gain something.
Before leaving, Song Che had already compiled a plan and handed it over to Shen Fang.
"Farewell, brother-in-law, how long can we stay here? Your second uncle and I were discussing yesterday to pick a good day to marry your sister-in-law, and you can stay here until we finish the wedding banquet before leaving."
"I haven't been back for more than three months since I left Suzhou. I really miss home. Anyway, Suzhou is not far from Yangzhou. As soon as my uncle's wedding invitation arrives, we will definitely come."
If the Japanese pirates make such a fuss tonight, Yangzhou City will most likely be sealed off and severely punished. If they can't leave tonight, they will probably be delayed for a long time.
For Song Che, as long as the Yang family and his son survive, Yangzhou is a dangerous place, and there is absolutely no harm in escaping early.
Shen Fang couldn't persuade him to stay, so he wrapped ten gold coins as a farewell gift.
After Song Che left Fuman Inn, he went to the pier to rent a passenger ship on his own, and agreed to take it on the eve of Haishi. Then he went to Dongcheng and rented a street-facing guest room on the second floor of an inconspicuous inn across Baihua Street.
Standing in front of the guest room window, you can have a great view of the Eight Immortals Tower.
Only if tonight's plan succeeds, can he leave Yangzhou with peace of mind.
gradually.
Night is coming.
As expected, the Eight Immortals Tower declined all guests, but the lights were brightly lit and a carpet was laid out to welcome any distinguished guests.
When night fell completely, a team of carriages and horses slowly drove into Baihua Street. The team consisted of three carriages. Only the first carriage had an accompanying escort. Jiang Yun was in the middle of it.
The motorcade stopped in front of the Eight Immortals Tower.
Gao Chen got off the carriage first with a bloated middle-aged man. This man should be Li Youtian, the capital of Yangzhou.
There were seven or eight people coming out of the other carriages, all of whom were well-dressed and wealthy in appearance. Yang Wanfu, the president of the Yangzhou Chamber of Commerce and the big owner of Yang's Trading Company, was also among them.
"We are really lucky to be able to drink at the same table with Mr. Gao."
"Hey, most of Yangzhou's finances are in the hands of your bosses, and you still have to contribute a little to the frontline military resources."
"It's all in the wine, it's all in the wine, Mr. Gao please."
"please."
Accompanied by Jiang Yun and several guards, Gao Chen and several local dignitaries entered the Eight Immortals Tower. Whether intentionally or not, the door of the restaurant was wide open.
Looking at the elegant room on the second floor of the Eight Immortals Building, the figures in the window are coming and going, and people are drinking and drinking.
About half an hour later.
The courtyard opposite the Eight Immortals Tower finally opened its door, and Ma Hu led the Japanese pirates disguised as a caravan and approached the Eight Immortals Tower with several carts of dried seafood.
The caravan stopped at the entrance of the Eight Immortals Tower and saw a man running out of the inn. After a few words with Ma Hu, the Japanese pirates carried boxes filled with seafood and entered the Eight Immortals Tower one after another.
Only incoming, not out.
Ma Hu finally entered the building and closed the door.
There are still people on the street, and murderous intent is everywhere in the restaurant!
Sudden!
A stream of hot blood spilled onto the window, the window shadows became chaotic, and fighting and shouting suddenly broke out.
The captured cicada transformed into a oriole and bit the mantis!
A satisfied smile appeared on Song Che's lips, then he closed the window and walked out of the guest room.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he stepped across the threshold, he heard a "bang" sound, and the door of the guest room next door was pushed open, and a man in green robe walked out with a proud look on his face.
Song Che and the man in green robe looked at each other for a moment, then stopped in their tracks, and the smiles on their faces turned into confusion.
The man in green robe is none other than Yang Song, the young owner of Yang's Trading Company.
