., Jiapingguan Chronicle! ,! Shen Cha looked at the expressions of Mr. Jiang and Uncle Yan, and then exchanged glances with Shen Haolin and Xue Ruitian. Could it be that it was really the work of the old money geek and that they had really found a treasure?
Jin Jing coughed lightly, reached out and tugged on Xue Ruitian's sleeve, and raised her chin towards Jiang Erye and Yan Bo, who were almost getting into the box.
Xue Ruitian shook his head gently, which meant that it was not convenient to disturb the elders. The elders would naturally tell us after they have finished their research.
This study lasted as long as a cup of tea. Both of them put themselves into the box. When they got out of the box, they looked at each other and saw the surprise on each other's faces.
"Second Grandpa?" Shen Cha looked at Second Master Jiang and then at Uncle Yan.
"Uncle Yan? Is there anything wrong with this thing?"
"Of course not." Second Master Jiang waved his hand and asked Merlin to close the lid of the box again.
"Don't put it here, put it in the warehouse at the back and keep it properly. If I'm not mistaken, what's hidden here is the most important thing."
"Is there something hidden in it?"
"We'll talk more slowly after we get back to the warming room." Second Master Jiang asked about the smell of his body, with a look of disgust on his face.
"That old guy Qian Gui is good at everything, but the things he likes to use have a special smell, and I don't like the smell." He waved his hands towards a few children.
"You all go back and wash up. After washing, change your clothes and then go to the conservatory. The two of us will also go and wash up. If I have to spend an entire night with this smell, then I really can't stand it."
"Well, see you in the warm hall in half an hour. Merlin, go and tell my master. If we don't go back, master won't know what we are doing, and he might be anxious."
"Okay!" Merlin nodded, saluted everyone, and ran towards the conservatory. The other people dispersed in the front yard. Mr. Jiang followed Uncle Yan to his yard. The other children went directly to the study room in the front yard. There is a small row of houses here, and everyone has a separate room. Small bathroom, the room is not big, but it is enough.
There are still clean clothes in the bathroom closet. These are just in case something happens one day. There will be places to treat wounds, wash up, and change clothes.
Of course, sometimes, they would spend the whole night having meetings in the study, and they would also wash up and change clothes here the next morning.
Although they didn't know what Jiang Erye and Yan Bo were talking about, the children still cleaned themselves up and washed up very quickly. In a short time, they all finished washing and changed into clean clothes. The clothes were gathered in the study room.
"It's still early, let's take a break and drink some tea." Jin Miaomiao yawned, looked at Shen Cha's half-dried hair, and threw a big handkerchief to her.
"Typhoid fever is more popular recently. Dry your hair to avoid catching a cold."
"Okay!" Shen Cha slowly wiped his hair, looked at Shen Haolin, Xue Ruitian, and then at Jin Jing.
"Actually, I have always had a question. Ever since I listened to Mrs. Ning's words, I have had a question."
"what is the problem?"
"Mrs. Ning said that one of the main reasons why the Chaozhou Ning family wanted to marry the Wang family was that the Wang family owned ships and shipyards, which the Qinglian Sect needed. Because the Qinglian Sect did not have these things, it was very inconvenient to transport goods. After the Chaozhou Ning family became in-laws with the Wang family, the Qinglian sect had a dock and a ship. It was very convenient for them to carry goods from the sea. They didn't have to borrow the owner's ship today and the Xi family's ship tomorrow. Bar?"
"Yeah!" Xue Ruitian nodded,
"So? What do you think is wrong?"
"No, I just have a very bold guess." Shen Cha took a sip of tea and continued,
"We have always believed that the Qinglian Sect originated from Daxia, and its current home base must be in Daxia or this land. But is there such a possibility? Because of the many sieges and suppressions by the Qinglian Sect, no matter it is Daxia After many years of encirclement and suppression, they can no longer survive on this land, so they have to move to an unknown island in the sea? Otherwise, why do they do business and transport goods by sea instead of by land?”
"Hey, Xiaocha, your idea is very unique!" Xue Ruitian touched his chin,
"I have never thought about it in this direction before. Yes, if we are on land, no matter in Xia, Liao, Jin, or even any country in the Western Regions, it is impossible to ship goods by sea, and we have to go to the wharf in Chaozhou. Really? If you want to take the Chaozhou pier, then..."
"There are two possibilities. One is that they established a base camp on the island in the sea around Daxia, the other is..."
"Colluded with the Japanese pirates." Shen Haolin picked up the teacup and rubbed the pattern on the teacup with his fingers.
"If they are colluding with Japanese pirates, it can explain why Japanese people appear around Aunt Wanyanping. They are one body. In other words, the Japanese have been subdued by the Qinglian Sect and have become the thugs of the Qinglian Sect."
"Yeah!" Jin Jing nodded,
"But what if it's the first one?"
"Then I don't know!" Shen Haolin shook his head gently and read a book
"Sea areas are not our specialty, but you all know that the Ministry of War will update the charts every year. After all, we have to fight pirates and Japanese, and we need the latest charts. Every chart is clearly marked, and there is nothing strange about it. Islands appear.”
"Yes!" Xue Ruitian also nodded and added,
"The charts updated every year by the Ministry of War are all submitted by the Liu Family Army. The warships and navy affiliated to the Liu Family Army will go to sea almost once every two or three months to sweep all the islands in the sea area around Daxia. If Qing Qing The Lotus Sect exists on nearby islands. Marshal Liu will not fail to know about it and will not fail to report it. Also, if any strange islands appear, they will also mark them. I have seen the last two or three Basically, it can be said that there are no new islands appearing on the nautical charts.”
"So, this is a question. Since there is no suspicious island, where did the Qinglian Sect's goods for so many years come from? Where did they come from, and how long did they travel on the sea before they arrived at the Chaozhou pier? Then they started from Chaozhou Where can we go to Zhou Wan to load the next batch of goods?" Shen Cha spread his hands and said,
"I have asked Mrs. Ning before. They only want the ship, not the crew. They use their own people. Therefore, neither the Ning family nor the Wang family knows where the ship is loaded."
"I wrote a letter to Liu Shuai and sent it to his old man as soon as possible, asking them to carefully explore those islands next time they go to sea, including the islands where the Japanese are located." Shen Haolin patted Shen Cha on the shoulder.
"Your bold guess may come true!"
