"Didn't the captain check the cabin just now? Doesn't it mean that the captain thinks that our Feilong Trading Company is easy to bully? Let you have fun here?" The smile on Elder Xiao's face suddenly disappeared, replaced by a cold look.
Feeling the sudden change in the atmosphere, these escorts felt as if they had entered an ice cellar. The guard captain suddenly felt nervous, knowing that he had made the other party very unhappy.
However, even so, he still didn't give up. Previously, because the ship was full of people, it was inevitable that someone would pretend to be on the ship and pass the customs.
But now that these crew members have come out, there is nowhere to hide those people hidden on the ship, so he believes that if he searches again at this time, he will definitely be able to find these people.
Moreover, Elder Xiao's anger now may be understood to mean that he deliberately frightened him like this. So that he can retreat when faced with difficulties, but he is the one who accepts death.
Anyway, he had already informed the city lord. If he found those wanted criminals at this time, it would be a great achievement. Perhaps he can be cultivated by the city lord and advance to a higher realm.
For the sake of your own future, you have to work hard no matter what.
"Elder Xiao, please don't be angry. I don't mean anything else. I just don't want to miss any opportunity for the prisoner to escape. We all saw those people go to hell before, but now these people are on Feilong Trading Company's treasure ship. disappeared into thin air.
If we don't find a result today, it may have an impact on the reputation of Feilong Trading Company. We also hope to clear Feilong Trading Company's name. "The guard captain said through gritted teeth and withstanding the pressure.
"Okay! Well done, let me, Feilong Trading Company, be innocent. Our Feilong Trading Company has always been upright and upright. Since the captain is so insistent, there is no reason for our Feilong Trading Company not to cooperate. In this case, please ask the captain to continue the search. Come on!" Elder Xiao sneered.
Anyway, Cheng Yu and the others have already left. No matter how they investigate, there will be no results, so let them investigate.
However, just after these guards entered the cabin again to search, the City Lord Tianba of the City Lord's Mansion actually appeared with someone.
This made the guard captain excited and nervous. He had just sent someone to try. He thought it was impossible for the city lord to really come in person for such a few people.
But I didn't expect that the city lord would actually come now. But so far he has not found the whereabouts of those people, which makes him worried.
If he can't find anyone, I'm afraid he won't get any credit, but will be punished instead.
"City Lord!" The captain said respectfully, kneeling on one knee on the ground.
"Get up, I heard you found the whereabouts of those people?" City Lord Tianba looked at the guard captain and said calmly.
Although Tianba, the lord of Tianhai City, has a very heroic and domineering name, and people who don't know him think he is a very rude person, he himself looks more like a gentle and elegant scholar.
"I've met City Lord Tian!" Elder Xiao said, cupping his fists and saluting Tianba.
Although in terms of realm, his realm is one level higher than Tianba's. He can be said to be Tianba's senior. But in terms of status, as the city lord of a city, Tianba's status is indeed much higher than that of an elder of a trading company like him.
Therefore, Elder Xiao must perform this gift, and Tianba must also give him this face.
"Elder Xiao is so polite. I heard from my subordinates that some wanted criminals from our city lord's palace boarded your trading company's treasure ship. I wonder if this is true or not?" Tianba looked at Elder Xiao and said politely.
Although Feilong Trading Company is just a trading company, compared with his status as a city lord, it is still a world away. But Feilong Trading Company is very powerful, and nowadays, Haicheng is full of Feilong Trading Company's properties, and the tax paid to him by Feilong Trading Company every year is very generous.
In addition, his cultivation over the years has been thanks to Feilong Trading Company's collection of high-quality resources for him, so he can't do anything to Feilong Trading Company now. After all, he still needs to rely on them to take a further step in strength.
In the eyes of others, there is a huge power background behind their City Lords Association. No one dares to do anything to them easily? Some people even think that his current cultivation is the result of the forces behind him cultivating him.
In fact, only he himself knows the pain. In front of that powerful force, he is just a dog supported by the other party.
Although they do receive some precious resources every year, these resources are far less valuable than the resources they hand over.
Because to them, it doesn't matter who becomes the city lord of this city, as long as they can complete the resource tasks assigned to them every year.
Therefore, this city lord may seem to be prosperous, but a large part of the resources he has accumulated over the years have actually been taken away by this force.
However, his current level of cultivation was achieved through the support of major trading firms such as Feilong Trading Company that came to Tianhai City to do business. And this Feilong Trading Company is one of the strongest among the major trading firms.
Now his strength is not strong enough, so he still needs to rely on Feilong Trading Company, and does not want to offend Feilong Trading Company.
However, the person they were looking for this time was very important to him, and that was the person the forces behind him wanted to pay attention to.
As for those people who were killed by Cheng Yu, they didn't have the face to do so. Because of their deaths, Tianba was specially asked to find these murderers.
However, outsiders did not know all this and only thought that he was doing it for his men who died. This also allowed him to win the loyalty of his men. Everyone thought that he, Tianba, was a wise master!
"Speaking of which, City Lord Tian came just in time. This captain insisted that the people your City Lord's Mansion was looking for boarded our treasure ship. But we have never seen these people, and, for them, I All the crew members on the ship were called out to cooperate with him.
However, he was also sure that these people were not the people they were looking for. However, they now proposed to enter the cabin to search. Although I agreed to his request, now that City Lord Tian is here, should he seek justice for our Feilong Trading Company?
We, Feilong Trading Company, have been operating in Tianhai City for so many years. We have always abided by the rules and have never been in arrears with even half of the tax paid to the city lord's palace every year. However, the people in your city's lord's palace treat our Feilong Trading Company like this. This is really disappointing. Our Feilong Trading Company is so heartbroken! "Elder Xiao said looking at Tianba.
Hearing Elder Xiao's words, Tianba's face looked a little ugly. He originally heard someone reported that he saw the prisoners getting on the boat with his own eyes, but now he has not found them. Instead, he has been criticized by others. His good mood suddenly disappeared. there is none left.
But the guard captain who was standing by was livid and angry. The man surnamed Xiao was clearly the villain who complained first.
"Wenyang, what's going on?" Tianba asked the guard captain.
