At this time, the lake bandits were happily fishing for shrimps, but they didn't know that a big net was already lying around them.
Naturally, we choose to take action on the boat because we are afraid that some fish will slip through the net and escape. This is exactly the reason why the so-called elimination of evil is done.
Time passed bit by bit in the excitement of the lake bandits. Unfortunately, not even a small fish was seen, let alone crayfish.
The lake bandits began to become a little anxious.
The eyes looking at Qi Zhen's team began to look a bit resentful.
Mr. Liu Fang has also been a little anxious since he received the letter from Qi Zhen's team last night.
The transfer of more than one battalion of soldiers must be reported to the court. Even if each state capital only sends three official ships, will the court believe such nonsense?
Isn’t the Kujo official ship a battalion of soldiers? How can the court explain the blame?
And the two colleagues from Huzhou and Yixing, can they be on the same page as me?
Only when it came to the lake bandits causing trouble, Liu Fang believed that the two men were just as eager as himself to confiscate the lake bandits' homes and exterminate their clans.
I have never seen monsters that are causing trouble, and I have never seen lake bandits that are causing trouble. Why is there so much unrest in the Taihu Lake area!
Liu Fang knew that this matter could not be delayed. Qi Zhen's team had finally created such a good opportunity. From the perspective of protecting the land and bringing peace to the people, and from the perspective of meritorious service and receiving awards, this matter was worth doing.
He hurriedly sent a message to the other two adults in Huzhou and Yixing through Ye Xiao, whether you can get on or not, I, Liu Fang, will definitely get on!
In fact, before dawn the next day, Lord Liu Fang had already left the city, followed the official road all the way to the shore of Taihu Lake, and then personally took the boat with the soldiers to the middle of Taihu Lake. However, the hull of the boat was hidden among the reeds, which was not easy. Just discovered.
In fact, Qi Zhen really didn't want to take a trip into this troubled waters.
It’s just that he is concerned about whether all the crayfish in the lake really disappeared with the death of the big lobsters. After all, if these crayfish do not disappear, then the ecology of Taihu Lake will never get better, and the fish in Taihu Lake will also disappear. Without the ability to thrive and thrive, the villagers around Taihu Lake will not be able to return to their original normal lives.
On the other hand, Jiang Yan still hopes to come over and have a look. She hopes to see these lake bandits commit suicide with her own eyes.
Qi Zhen still had concerns in her heart. Although Lord Liu Fang had vowed in his letter that he would definitely come here to capture the lake bandits, without the help of people like himself, he was afraid that even professional sailors would not be able to do it smoothly. Catch these desperadoes.
But as the saying goes, there is no way to kill a chicken with a butcher's knife.
Everyone in the team still felt that they had fallen a bit short by doing these things.
It’s too low. It’s too low.
When the second ship saw nine neat official ships appearing in front of him and surrounding his passenger ship in just an instant, he almost peed his pants in fear.
There was no reason why the head of the family couldn't react at this time. He looked at Qi Zhen with a sinking face, as if he wanted to eat him.
"Don't look at me, I gave you a chance, but in the end you still chose this path." Qi Zhen said to him.
Indeed, if the lake bandits are no longer so greedy after eliminating the demons and no longer have such a big desire for these crayfish, Qi Zhenbaoqi will have no choice but to let them go.
Now that I know that this matter is a complete scam, just to invite you to enter the urn and catch turtles in the urn, naturally no lake bandit will go to close the net foolishly.
"You don't even think about it. It's been three years. Have you ever caught a crayfish? Do you know what it's called? This is so unpopular." Qi Zhen said.
The capture of the lake bandits went smoothly.
It is impossible to resist.
The reasons are simple. First, Team Qi Zhen is here, and second, the weapons were all chopped up yesterday when Team Qi Zhen was unloading lobsters...
Master Liu Fang and Qi Zhen's team met with each other and heard about the lake bandits and monsters causing trouble here. Naturally, they were filled with sadness.
It seemed like they hadn't seen each other for just a few days, but both Qi Zhen and Liu Fang felt like they were a lifetime apart.
The soldiers in the other two state capitals were obviously not led by the chief officer. This was also because Liu Fang's available talents had basically been exhausted in Yuemeng Mountain.
Qi Zhen still talked to the three people about the following matters related to the management of this place and the resettlement of surrounding villagers, and asked the three parties to coordinate and work together.
The prisoners were naturally taken over by Mr. Liu Fang himself and brought back to Suzhou for interrogation. Whether they would be tortured severely or lenient if they confessed, and whether they would be killed or beheaded, the rules of the law depended on their own, and there was no need to elaborate.
In short, things ended successfully like this.
Everyone continued their journey to Shushan refreshed.
After bidding farewell to Mr. Liu Fang, Qi Zhen's team followed Yixing's official ship and arrived at Yixing Mansion.
Compared with Suzhou Prefecture, Yixing Prefecture is much less prosperous, but it does not compromise on its beautiful scenery.
In line with the general principle of not rushing or wasting time, everyone took a walk around Yixing City. They did not alarm the local officials, and no other frightening plot missions occurred.
But what is a bit unbelievable is that Li San actually has such a deep understanding of purple clay pots and tea.
Everyone was walking in the busiest market on Yixing Road, where shops selling purple clay and tea were everywhere.
Stop and go along the way. If you don’t understand anything, you will stop and ask the store.
Except for Li San, everyone's interest in purple clay and tea leaves is probably only at the level of looking good and smelling good.
In the end, Li San still asked for money from Qi Zhen and bought a hand-held pot that he was very fond of.
After simply having lunch in Yixing, everyone set out on their westward journey. According to Qi Zhen's plan, if they followed the current speed and the map Sang She gave them, it would take about forty or fifty days to reach Shushan.
If there are some side tasks that suddenly pop up in the middle, I'm afraid it will take longer.
But there was one thing Qi Zhen wasn't too worried about.
No matter what the game is, the plot that requires the player's participation will always be triggered when the player rushes to the designated location.
That's why Qi Zhen didn't rush on the road too much. Otherwise, with the physical strength of everyone, even without hiring a carriage, the speed could still be doubled.
In the evening, the team arrived at the place where they would rest tonight - Liyang.
Liyang is called a county, so it is naturally smaller than Yixing and Suzhou.
Everyone came to the only inn in the county and prepared to settle down.
The name of the inn stinks on the street: Yuelai Inn.
Just like the weird hotels with foreign names now, in ancient times, it would be unreasonable if every city did not have a Yuelai Inn.
The place is small, and the inn naturally does not have any splendid or carved features.
The inn is divided into two floors, with roughly seven or eight rooms. Food can also be prepared for guests in the hall, but the price is calculated separately.
Liyang is naturally not a remote place, and the flavor of the cuisine is naturally not as good as that of a big city like Suzhou.
The same number of square tables as the rooms are placed in the hall for guests staying in the hotel to dine.
As soon as the not-so-travelled group entered the inn, they were looked up and down by the sharp-eyed waiter for eighty-eight sixty-four times.
As a waiter, what you do every day is observing people's emotions and serving tea and water, so you will naturally develop a pair of sharp eyes.
These people did not prepare carriages and horses. They looked unfamiliar and did not look like long-distance travelers. Even if they were long-distance travelers, no carriages and horses meant no money.
The waiter looked at it carefully again, but he was a little surprised in his heart.
Judging by their clothes, they didn't look like they had any money, especially the leading man, who was very impressive and looked a bit like those well-trained military masters.
Darling, I haven’t met those two beautiful girls in some years.
Who is that snarky person?
The more the waiter looked at it, the more amazed he became.
At this time, the most inconspicuous young man in the group spoke.
"Boy, do you still have a room?"
"Yes! Yes! Look at what you said, this is what you do for a living, there is no reason why you don't have a room."
The child quickly continued.
Qi Zhen nodded, this place is quite clean, and there is no need to travel at night and sleep in the wilderness, so let's stay here.
Qi Zhen asked the waiter for four rooms and asked him to help prepare dinner.
There are four rooms, at most one room can be prepared for two beautiful girls. These men are a bit wealthy and don't live in Tongbu.
Qi Zhen didn't explain anything and gave the waiter a piece of silver.
It was in Yixing City that everyone realized that even though the cloth bag given by Sang She was not big, the things inside it were really valuable in this world.
Li San is extremely knowledgeable in the field of purple clay, which can be roughly compared to Qi Zhen's achievements in games. This was only when the team was in Yixing City that they heard what Li San said personally.
According to him, there are many types of thieves, including petty thieves, elegant thieves, and notorious thieves.
As the saying goes, those who steal pearls are those who steal the country, but in fact, the profession of thief has existed throughout the entire history of China.
Thief is a method, not just a name for a specific person.
Taking something without telling you is a thief.
This has nothing to do with what you take or what method you use.
Li San, on the other hand, considers himself a very traditional or orthodox thief.
So the taste is also high.
Not comparable to those who steal bicycles and wallets.
Qi Zhen said you mean you are Kaitou Kidd.
Li San was choked and speechless for a long time.
Li San compared the workmanship of this pot with the shops on the whole street, and found out why this thing suited him, because it was really good.
I just don’t have the money, but I don’t know which master it was from.
Then he estimated the price based on modern prices, then reduced it by three-quarters, then converted it based on the gold price in another world, and took out the price he thought was appropriate from the bag.
Ten ingots of gold.
One ingot is ten taels.
As a result, the shopkeeper's eyes widened, but his expression turned bitter. "Lobbyist, it's not that I don't want the money, I'm afraid that I'll feel bad if I do."
Li San was surprised and asked him how much it cost?
The shopkeeper picked up one of the ingots of gold, shook it in front of his eyes, and said with a grimace, "Do you have any silver? I can't find it."
At that time, Li San's expression was even more surprised than the shopkeeper's.
First, the things are too cheap, and second, the money is really valuable!
After this incident, everyone in the team finally understood why the second person in the boat acted so flatteringly that he got into trouble when he told them that the lake cost one tael of silver per person but they didn't make a price. Heart.
It seems that inertial thinking is really to blame.
But there is no need to deliberately hide the fact that you are rich because of this kind of thing. This is a consensus that the team members can reach.
If you can live a better life, there is no need to make yourself suffer too much.
After all, in the game, life is precarious, so how can you care about so many external things?
The waiter's eyes brightened when he saw Yinzi, and he became a little more attentive, and hurriedly took them to the room on the second floor.
Take your pick!
