Chapter 92 Chapter 91: The Spring Breeze Turns Green on the South Bank of the River

Balipu Pier. A small ferry crossing by the river is a small dot on the map that can only be seen by looking carefully. In terms of size, it is not as big as Shilipu, and it is even worse in terms of prosperity. At present, it can only be regarded as a backup terminal; in terms of size, it is not too small, and it can dock larger ships.This used to be a coal terminal. Since the coal mines dozens of miles away have basically been mined, there is not much coal to transport, and this once prosperous terminal has gradually declined. Especially after the First World War on New Year's Eve, this place is even more deserted, with only a few crows pecking at carrion animals.

There is also an elephant.An elephant is not a real elephant, but a human being, as strong as an elephant. Elephant, male, thirty-seven years old.He broke a man's neck as easily as he trampled an ant. When the elephant dived ashore from the river, it still felt a little cold.Although it is early spring, the river water that has just melted from the ice and snow is still very bitter.He drank a few sips of Laojiao wine before he felt warmer.However, his heart was still so cold that it could freeze. What he saw in the water made him feel chills. Elephants are not only good at martial arts, but also very good at water. They can dive underwater for several hours at a stretch, and even sleep in the water.

What did a man who kills like hemp and has a heart like a stone see at the bottom of the water that chills him so much? When Zou Xifeng personally gave him the task, the elephant still didn't take it seriously. If he was asked to kill people, he would be very happy and would rush to go. The situation of the five huge ships that were burned in Qinglong Town during the battle. Although the elephant doesn't care about killing people, he has always respected the dead who died in battle. He thinks that those who are shrouded in horse leather and desperate to die on the battlefield are bloody men. It is best not to disturb their noble and lonely souls after death. It is best for the dead to let them rest in peace. respect.

But the owner's order must be carried out, and it must be carried out in secret: keeping your mouth shut is half the battle. What he saw at the bottom surprised the elephant, and he couldn't help admiring the master's insight.He dived into the water, spent several hours before and after, and searched every corner of the ship, only to find five dead bodies, only one on each ship!These five bodies were all found in front of the pilothouse, that is to say, only one person was driving each boat. What's even more strange is that no weapons such as knives or swords were found!Where did so many people go?Qinglong Town will not only send five people to travel, will it?The fire will kill people, but not the weapons!

The elephant felt that this matter was becoming less and less fun, more and more unpredictable, and more and more incomprehensible.Standing on the cold shore, he couldn't help shivering. The headquarters of Jardine Bank is located in the most prosperous area in the center of the city, and it is a magnificent complex of buildings. There is a courtyard behind the bank, where Zou Xifeng lives. The courtyard where he lived was the most secret and core place in the whole bank, and its defense was even more strict than that of the treasury.He often gives orders in this place, thinks about the next strategy, and receives some of the most valuable guests.Sometimes I also read books, grow grass, eat with the children, and enjoy family happiness.

There is a big pond in the house, and Zou Xifeng is feeding the goldfish by the pond.Goldfish were regarded as divine creatures by the ancients, and the goldfish raised in this pond are even more top-quality, including plump, lively and lovely chrysanthemum heads, and handsome-eyed, red-capped crane crests; The color of the panda goldfish is exactly like that of a giant panda, and it has graceful and luxurious pearl scales. Zou Xifeng's waist is still very straight, and his mind is still very sharp, but recently he has used his brain too much and worried too much, and his head has become more and more bald.Time ruthlessly urges people to grow old, no matter how old you are, you can't resist the time flies by like running water.

Fish farming is also a form of cultivation and self-cultivation.By the pond, Zou Xifeng temporarily forgot about the struggle for hegemony and worldly chores, and was intoxicated in the pure and elegant environment.That mentality didn't last long, though, because the elephants came. He has been waiting for the elephant. After passing through the many mansions, through the long corridors, and after three careful and thorough searches, the elephant was led to the pond.Jin met the owner of the villa, and he reported to Zou Xifeng what he saw in the water. Zou Xifeng listened while feeding the fish, as if he was absent-minded, he already knew the result.

Elephant finished his speech very quickly, he was a man with few words. finished?Zou Xifeng said: That's all?Yes.The elephant murmured. Zou Xifeng didn't blame him, but instead said: You did a good job.And put down the feed in his hand, and patted the shoulder of the elephant with his dirty hands to show encouragement. For a person like an elephant, the more casual you are with him, the more you can move him.A dirty handprint was left on the shoulder, but the elephant grinned happily as if it had received a reward, and all the hard work disappeared: "Master, if there is anything else, please just order."

Well, I know, I always think of you first.Zou Xifeng said. The elephant was so excited that tears filled his eyes.Zou Xifeng asked again: When you were diving, did anyone else see it? Absolutely not!I can promise.The elephant swore: Balipu was very desolate. I searched all the places within a mile radius before entering the water.As for the living creatures, the subordinates only found a few crows and a few fish, that's all. good!Outsiders only know that you are powerful and powerful, but few people know that you are as careful as a hair.He explained: The key to the next step is to keep the other party in the dark that we are aware of something.

The subordinates understand. What should come will always come.Zou Xifeng said: Soon we will have a lot of things to do, and some of them will be killed for you! The elephant said proudly: Don't worry, the owner, we will kill as many as you come!Kill him without leaving a piece of armor. The key is where did the elite of Qinglong Town go?Will it disappear out of thin air?All we have to do now is find these people.He yelled: Come on, bring the map! Immediately, someone placed the map at his feet and unfolded it.Zou Xifeng lowered his head, stared at the map for a while, and asked the elephant: Where do you think these people will go?

The subordinates dare not speculate.Speaking boldly, it’s okay, and it’s okay to be wrong.Zou Xifeng said encouragingly. According to the analysis of the subordinates, it is very likely that the people in Qinglong Town went ashore in advance.The elephant said: A person who is good at swimming can swim a long distance with a heavy load. Makes sense.These people are elite teachers, as long as they have been properly trained in advance, they can do it.Elephant said: Qinglong Town must have made careful planning beforehand.Well, go ahead. Elephant looks like a person with well-developed limbs and a simple mind, but he analyzes the problem clearly and logically: five ships can carry an army, so there must be a large hiding place for so many people.Pointing to a place name on the map, he said: The subordinate believes that Songzhuang is the most likely place to live!They need supplies and rest, and there is no better place nearby than Songzhuang.Moreover, using this as a base, you can go out of the pine forest at any time, pass through the back mountain, and surprise the bank's base camp!Like a sharp sword inserted into our heart at any time! well said!Zou Xifeng said: Heroes see the same thing! However, some subordinates still don't quite understand.said the elephant. oh?tell me the story. Since the owner of the villa has long been alerted, why is the house arrest of Songzhuang lifted at this juncture?Why not immediately send troops into Songzhuang?This is not like what the owner of the village usually does. Good question.Zou Xifeng said: Do you know that there is a fish called sardine?I don't know, I am ashamed. You don’t know, and it’s not your fault, because this kind of fish doesn’t exist in the Central Plains. An eminent monk brought me some from the sea. The sea is vast and the mountains are thousands of miles away. They were still alive when they were given to me.Zou Xifeng explained: According to the eminent monk, sardines are very delicate and extremely unsuitable for the environment after leaving the sea.After fishermen put the sardines that had just been caught into the fish tanks and shipped them back to the pier, the sardines would die before long, and the dead sardines tasted bad and the sales volume was also poor.If the sardines are still alive when they arrive in Hong Kong, the selling price of the fish will be several times higher than that of dead fish. In order to prolong the lifespan of sardines, fishermen try every means to let the fish reach the port alive.Later, the fishermen came up with a way to put several catfish, the natural enemy of sardines, in the transport container.Because catfish are carnivorous fish, after being put into the fish tank, catfish will swim around looking for small fish to eat.In order to avoid being devoured by natural enemies, sardines naturally speed up their swimming, thus maintaining their vigorous vitality.In this way, the sardines returned to the fishing port one by one alive and kicking.This is the catfish effect. Zou Xifeng smiled: When I received the sardines, I also received two catfish.Qinglong Town is our catfish, our pressure, and our driving force for continuous improvement and survival.You have to remember, many times, enemies are more useful to you than friends! The elephant nodded solemnly. I have read countless people in my life, but I have never been able to figure out what Boss Hu is thinking.Zou Xifeng said: Now, even you can think of Songzhuang, but Boss Hu can't think of it?Would you be so careless and ostentatious? He sighed and said with a wry smile: I didn't think of this level until a few days after the New Year's Eve battle. It's already too late to send troops into Songzhuang, and I'm afraid people will go to the building.Now I am like a sardine, looking at the scenery and jumping around alive and well, because there are catfish behind me. Elephant suddenly realized: the subordinates understood that the reason the owner lifted the house arrest of Songzhuang was to confuse the opponent, lure the snake out of the hole, and finally invite the king into the urn! Zou Xifeng didn't say anything more, and started feeding the goldfish in the pond again.If he doesn't speak, it means that today's meeting is over. The elephant retreated quietly, walked out of the bank, looked up suddenly, only to find that the sky was already full of sunset!
