Chapter 11 Chapter Ten: Twenty-Four Bridges on a Moonlit Night

Along a path paved with cobblestones, we arrived at the house of the steward Yong Yangcai. No matter how busy he is, Yong Yangcai always finds time to feed the pigeons in the backyard. This has become his habit over the years.Living alone, always find some hobbies.Pigeon breeding is his biggest hobby. Tonight, Yong Yangcai sat alone in the backyard again.He has been sitting for a long time.After feeding the pigeons, he didn't go into the house as usual, but sat on the cool chair in the backyard, half sitting and half lying down, as if he was waiting for someone. In the gradually cold autumn night, who is he waiting for?

What he was waiting for was not a person, but a pigeon.The chief manager of Jardine Bank, who is under one person and over ten thousand people, waited for a pigeon alone in such a cold autumn night, and he waited for more than half an hour.What kind of pigeon is this? Many people keep pigeons for eating.It is said that pigeons are great tonic. Similarly, there are many people who keep pigeons as a hobby and as a pastime in their spare time.It's no different than those who like to have cats and dogs. There is another kind of people who raise pigeons to deliver news. Yong Yangcai belongs to the latter two types, which is both a hobby and a way to pass on news.All he keeps are homing pigeons.At that time, the carrier pigeon was undoubtedly the fastest information transmission tool.

At first, the purpose of raising pigeons was purely to convey news. After a long time, Yong Yangcai gradually fell in love with raising pigeons. After a tiring day, it was a very pleasant thing to be with pigeons as companions and friends. Tonight, the pigeon he was waiting for flew from the Jixiang Village at the border of Yunnan and Guizhou thousands of miles away, where Xiaoqiu's pseudonym Qin Heng's hometown was. Qianzhuang has many branches, has many customers, and has a network all over the place.The order to investigate Qin Heng's life experience was sent to the branch in Yunnan and Guizhou through the carrier pigeon a few days ago. Counting the time, the reply should arrive tonight.

Just when Yong Yangcai seemed to be sleeping but not sleeping, a carrier pigeon flew over in the dark and fell into Yong Yangcai's hands.The pigeon looked very tired, as if it had exhausted all its strength to fly back to its owner. There is a small cylinder under the pigeon's paws, which contains the news that Yong Yangcai has been waiting for.He immediately took it off, and there was a small rolled-up note in the cylinder. Unrolled, there were only four words written on it, which was indeed the person. Yong Yangcai smiled coldly, and carefully put the note into a pot of liquid that had already been mixed with special medicine. Slowly, four petite characters gradually appeared on the top of the paper.

He finally smiled knowingly.He immediately turned around and ran back to the study to find the information he needed. On the first to seventh bookshelves on the left side of the study, there are many paintings of people, all of whom are slightly famous people that can be collected in the rivers and lakes. The one who grabs the pen is Liu Shiqing, who is best at sketching characters and has an excellent photographic memory.As long as he has seen a person, he can draw the person from memory afterwards without any difference, and it will come out vividly on the paper.Even if he has never seen someone before, he can draw this person very well based on the description in other people's mouths.

On the fourth shelf, in the 272nd cell on the sixth floor, Yong Yangcai finally found the Danqing he was looking for. In the painting is a young man with high spirits and a heroic appearance, almost identical to the young man named Qin Heng. But the name of the character on the painting is: Chrysanthemum Xiaoqiu! Qinglong Town. In that huge house, next to the only gaming table.Boss Hu, who is like an old goat, keeps shuffling the cards by himself.Just wash, not hair. Every time he encounters a big event, he always likes to sit at the gambling table and shuffle the cards.Only at this time, he felt the most nervous and most awake.

Are gamblers like this before they gamble? Xiao Si stood in front of Boss Hu.In front of the boss, he can only stand.Having followed Boss Hu for many years, he already knew this habit of the boss, and knew that it was best not to speak until the boss had matured his thinking.Unless the boss asks. Boss Hu asked: Do you know why I never deal cards to you?Xiao Si shook his head. Because there will be winners and losers as soon as the cards are dealt, Boss Hu explained: If there are winners and losers, people will be excited, it will be difficult to control their emotions, and the mind will inevitably become hot.I don't deal cards to you because I hope you will always have a clear mind, especially at critical moments.

These are the experiences of Boss Hu. The evaluation of him in the arena is that he is scheming and scheming.It is no coincidence that Qinglong Town has been able to stand tall in the Central Plains where the heroes competed for the throne for decades.In the meantime, the sweat and blood he has paid is beyond anyone's imagination. The skinny Boss Hu looked even thinner at the large table. Being thin does not mean weak, as can be seen from Xiao Si's respectful expression. Boss Hu continued: "At present, it is a critical moment. Jardine Bank will definitely not be reconciled to being hit, and will definitely respond."I know Zou Xifeng very well.He will definitely deploy and prepare first, and once he has completed the deployment, he will launch a swift and violent counterattack, which may be unexpected and even fatal.Therefore, we must think about where Zou Xifeng will start.This is exactly what has been bothering me these days.

Xiao Si took the fourth position in Qinglong Town, although with his talent and contribution, he could have taken the second position long ago, but he has always been very content with his current position.This is also what Boss Hu appreciates the most.A person who has no ambition but has brains is undoubtedly the easiest person to gain trust. Xiao Si has also been thinking.It is his style to calculate first and take risks later, and what he said is also convincing: In my humble opinion, Jardine Bank will not launch a large-scale attack in the near future, and will not make any major moves.First of all, our counterattack has caused huge losses to the opponent, and it takes time for them to recover from the blow.Secondly, Zou Xifeng has always done things safely, he will not do things that are not absolutely sure, and he never fights a battle that is not sure.In the end, it was because of Xiaoqiu.

Xiaoqiu?Boss Hu's eyes lit up. Xiao Si said word by word: because there is wind behind Xiao Qiu. Feng is the organization with the most reputation, the best word of mouth, and the most yearn for young people in today's Jianghu. It is also the organization that people like Jardine Bank who want to dominate the Jianghu hate and taboo. Xiao Si continued his statement: For a famous and nosy person like Xiao Qiu, Jardine Bank will definitely find out his details, and we must not underestimate our opponent.They will focus on Xiaoqiu, but Xiaoqiu is not an easy person to deal with, nor is Feng an easy organization to deal with.

Isn't Xiaoqiu very dangerous?When he said this, Boss Hu didn't show any worried expression. The room fell silent, so quiet that one could hear a needle drop on the ground.They haven't spoken for a long time, maybe they've finished talking, maybe they don't want to mention Xiaoqiu's name again. After a long time, Boss Hu put down the cards in his hand: What do we need to do? Xiao Si smiled and said: Let's go have a drink. Good, good, good.Boss Hu couldn't help showing his face and said, "Let's go, let's go have a drink."They really should have a drink, because all the changes are under control. Where's Xiaoqiu?Should he have a drink?
