Chapter 256 Literary youths are more professional than anyone else!

"What's the matter, Pleasant? Looking at you, you seem to be restless. You should drink some black tea, which can relax you." In the guest room on the second floor of an inn facing the sea at the dock of Dagougang, a red-haired middle-aged Western man was raising the white porcelain teacup in his hand to another one, enjoying the fragrance of tea.

"I just came here and felt like someone was following me, Ham." Another Westerner, Plaint, was standing at the window, admiring the busy port and the beautiful sea view in the distance. In the anchorage outside the port, a fleet of Qing Dynasty was moored there, cutting the beautiful sea view into two sections, which made him feel very uncomfortable.

The Englishman who came out of the crow-toothed cigarette house that Pleasant was just seen by Liang Pengfei has beautiful blonde hair. Although he is in his forties, he is well maintained and behaves like a Western gentlemanly manner.

"It's nothing. Those Qing people may be afraid that we will run away with the deposit. You know, even the warehouse where we store goods is 'protected' by the soldiers of the Qing navy. The red-haired man shrugged his shoulders carelessly. Ham, a red-haired man, despised Pleasant's caution, but the problem is that Pleasant is not only his partner, but also a major shareholder. In this business, Pleasant's shares accounted for two-thirds. Therefore, he can only suppress his dissatisfaction and make himself more impatient.

"No, no, no, I have a very bad feeling, Ham, it doesn't seem to be very safe. I don't know why, but I always feel that there is something missing." Pleasant picked up a cup of black tea, took a sip, and felt the sweet tea spreading in the tip of his tongue and mouth. Damn, why does such a seductive thing grow only in the East?

"We also have tempting things that can even let people enter heaven. Of course, we can also make them fall into hell." Ham picked up the teacup and motioned to Pleasant, with an evil and cunning smile on his face.

"You're right, but don't forget that you will suffer a lot of complacency. Did you forget about Sherka last year?" Pleasant raised his eyebrows unhappily, but his good cultivation made him quickly hide his emotions, but there was still a sense of stern vigilance in his tone.

--------------------

"Dear Mr. Plaint, of course I haven't forgotten, so we tried our best to avoid the waters of Guangdong and get on the line of Taiwan. You know, in order to feed these greedy Qing [***] people and officials like a group of hell three-headed dogs, we spent a lot of money. " As soon as he mentioned this, Ham felt that his teeth were itchy. It's no wonder that the damn General of the Qing Dynasty killed more than 300 of Shirka. My God, this guy is so savage and cruel.

"However, if that guy doesn't die, this business will not fall into our hands. Everything always has two sides." Pleasant took a sip of tea and walked to the window again. He enjoyed the black tea here. It was really a pleasure to look at the picturesque style different from Europe.

"Do you need me to arrange it first? "Plaente." Ham took the last sip of tea, exhaled comfortably, and began to swallow a cigarette.

"Wait first. After those merchants from Zhejiang and Fujian arrive, they will directly divide the goods. At that time, we can take the money and leave. It is also easy to release the goods for one or two merchants, which is easy to arouse the suspicion of others. Pleasant shook his head and explained.

Ham shrugged his shoulders and said, "It doesn't matter. Anyway, we are psychologically prepared. These Qing people have always been procrastinating."

The two of them were chatting together. At this time, Pleasant, who was enjoying the beautiful scenery of the harbor, became puzzled. Ham, I remember that when I left in the morning, there were not so many Qing warships there.

Hanm saw the change of Pleasant's expression, stood up and walked to the window. I know that these warships came to moor there two hours ago, but it depends on the situation, they should be ready to stay here for supplies. Huh? What are they doing? Ham's eyes suddenly fell not far away, which was the warehouse where they stored the goods. Because there were soldiers of the Qing Dynasty patrolling around, it had always been quiet there, but now, a group of people were approaching there, although they seemed to be dressed as civilians. But the gait of those people and the fierce momentum of their faces make people feel like thugs and robbers who have to pick knives at any time.

"Is it the gang here?" Pleasant rubbed his forehead and said, "What the hell, do these people dare to think about our goods?" It's not the first time that Plaint has come to the dog port, but he knows that there are a lot of ruffian hooligans collecting protection fees in this area, just like those ruffian bullies in the ports of the British Empire.

"It doesn't matter. There are soldiers of the navy guarding there. They don't dare to attack the officers and soldiers. Besides, haven't you seen the Qingguo navy warship on the sea? They are just a little bit of people. Do they dare to turn the world upside down? Ham laughed. Although he was a little worried, it was just a little bit.

"Who are you? No one here is allowed to approach." A sailor stared at his eyes and shouted loudly. Although he saw that more than 20 people on the other side looked so strong and burly, and one or two of them were ferocious. He looked at his eyes like a group of wolves, which made him feel a little numb, he still tried to do his duty.

The other party not only dispersed because of his scolding, but also getting closer and closer, which made him subconsciously tilt the long gun in his hand at these discolored guys.

"What's wrong? I can't even look at it?" Li Dashuang said loudly in the crowd. Isn't it just a warehouse? Let's pass by here and have a look.

A group of veterans coaxed aside. Before long, the lively port soon gathered a group of people because of the dispute here. Those soldiers standing aside didn't think that someone dared to make trouble here, and immediately rushed over to drive the crowd away.

At the moment when everyone's attention was attracted here, there was an obscene figure under a window of the warehouse. He easily opened the window, and then got into the window like a civet cat, and then closed the window again.

And standing on the street corner not far away, Liang Pengfei, who was talking about cigars to watch the fun, couldn't help staring. He really didn't expect that Bai Shusheng, a self-containing guy who reads poetry and books, did this kind of work so smoothly. Next to him, Wu Qianjin also shook his head: "The scholar's dog said One day later, he claimed to be a literary youth. I think his mother's thief is more professional than anyone else.

--------------------

"You are simply tarnishing the title of literary youth." Liang Pengfei muttered with a black line on his face. This group of guys often learn a lot of new nouns from themselves, but they never care if they are suitable. They make people feel uncomfortable all over as if they were stuffing cacti in the crotch.

"Yes, the scholar did tarnish this title." Monk Chen was very gloating, and the soldiers behind him suddenly let out a depressed smile. Next to him, Sun Shijie and Ni Mingqi rolled their eyes and looked helpless.

Li Xiaoshuang, Wu Qianjin and others got the signal from here and took the opportunity to scold and retreat to the side. The sailors seemed to be very loyal to their duties, and soon they retreated. In a bad way, the window that the white scholar drilled in suddenly pulled out a small crack, and stretched out two fingers inside, towards This side made a gesture that has been discussed for a long time.

After seeing Bai Shusheng's gesture clearly, Liang Pengfei spit fiercely: "The monk is called! Get ready to work."

"Yes!" Monk Chen was overjoyed and strode across the street. He ran to the edge of the dock. He took out a whistle from his arms and blew it with his cheeks. The sharp whistle echoed in the dock.

"Damn it, what's going on? What happened?" The sharp and sudden whistle shivered Pleasant, who had just been relieved and was tasting black tea. The black tea splashed on his silk shirt, and he couldn't help complaining angrily.

"Plyant, come and have a look!" At this time, Ham's rosy face, which was still standing at the window and looking at the lively place below, looked a little white, and his voice also changed, which made Plaint not care about the tea stains on his new clothes and rushed to the window to look in the direction of Ham's fingers.

I saw a lot of small boats on the battleships of the Qing Dynasty Marine Division that were originally moored in the anchorage, which seemed to be full of heavily armed soldiers coming towards the dock.

"My God, what happened here just now that we didn't notice?" Pleasant's face was also extremely pale at this moment. Did he have his own pre-sensing test?

"Dad, we have to get out of here right now." Pleasant put away the teacup and hurried to the door of the guest room.

"Why, Pleasant, they don't necessarily come to trouble us. Didn't you say that the officials here have been bribed by you? With their protection, there is no problem with our safety. Ham couldn't help shouting.

"I told you, but the origin of the Qing navy is unknown. Who knows if they are coming for us."

"But our goods are all in the warehouse."

"Idiot, if we can't even save our lives, what's the use of those goods?" As the two argued, they quickly rushed down the stairs, but when he was about to step on the lobby floor downstairs, Plaint suddenly felt something was wrong. He stopped his rushing, raised his eyes and looked at the inn lobby, which should have been crowded, but now it was now deserted and quiet.
