"Beep toot!"
The steamer from Xiangjiang Star Ferry Pier to Guangzhou had just set sail.
In a certain room in the cabin, Wang Feng was sitting in front of a mirror, allowing the servants to shave his head.
Originally, this head could not be shaved, but according to the old man, Yang Cheng was still under the rule of Da Da.
Although the rise of the western powers in recent times had led to many people studying in the west, and there were also many people who did not shave their heads, those people were either the children of military officers or the descendants of high officials in the imperial court.
Compared to them, the Li family was just an insignificant business family. If some people with ulterior motives made a fuss about this, it would not be good.
Looking at his shiny bald head in the mirror, Wang Feng touched it narcissistically and said to himself,"I didn't expect Li Chongguang to be so handsome! You're still so handsome even after shaving your head!"
"Young Master, what did you say?"
The servant who was tidying up at the side heard the commotion and thought that his master had something to do and ordered him to do it. He immediately put down his work and went forward to ask.
"Oh, it's nothing. Where's Master going?”
Wang Feng secretly rejoiced in his heart. Fortunately, this servant boy did not hear him clearly. Otherwise, he would have to spend a lot of effort to explain.
"Master? He's having tea in the restaurant now!" the servant replied.
Wang Feng adjusted his black tie in front of the mirror." Help me get my wig. I'm going to find my father."”
Wearing the braids handed over by the servant, he casually picked up the sunglasses on the table and walked out of the door.
At the same time, on the same ship.
Compared to Wang Feng, Tie Shan was much more depressed.
As the top scholar of the imperial court and the imperial envoy, he had traveled thousands of miles from the capital to Xiangjiang City to catch Sun Dapao, the leader of the Rebel Alliance.
Besides spending a lot of money to bribe the governor of Xiangjiang Harbor, they also spent a lot of manpower and material resources to set up an inescapable net in Xiangjiang.
Unexpectedly, Sun Dapao, that old fox, still managed to escape.
Fortunately, three days ago, he had disguised himself as the rebellious Zhang Ziyou, Sun Dapao's right-hand man, and killed him with an arrow.
At that time, Zhang Ziyou was wrapped up tightly and hid in the rickshaw, so he didn't see him die with his own eyes.
However, he was still very confident in his riding and archery skills. In addition, he had personally seen this kid's heart being pierced by an arrow.
Therefore, he was 100% sure that Zhang Ziyou would definitely die. Otherwise, he would really suffer a double loss.
Just two days ago, on the night that Zhang Ziyou was killed, he received a secret report from a spy that Zhang Ziyou had another identity. He was the only son of Li Yutang, a merchant from Yang Cheng.
Today, he immediately bought a ticket to Guangzhou.
Tie Shan had just finished his meal in the dining room and was about to leave. Suddenly, he saw a figure outside the dining room, which looked very similar to Li Yutang in the photo.
After tidying up his appearance, he went forward with a friendly smile and asked,""Excuse me, is this Li Yutang, Boss Li?”
Li Yutang glanced at him and asked,""You are…"
"My surname is Jin," said Tie Shan with a smile. He had met Boss Li once at the Chinese Business Conference.”
"Boss Li is a big shot! I know Boss Li, but it's normal that Boss Li doesn't know me.”
Li Yutang chuckled and said,"I'm old and can't remember Boss Jin."”
Tie Shan slightly cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Boss Li, you're too polite! A hundred years of cultivation and crossing in the same boat! It's fate that we met today."
At this time, Li Yutang was already on guard. This person was probably not just here to strike up a conversation. He immediately stood up and said,""Boss Jin, the wind is strong here. I'm afraid of the wind.”
Tie Shan immediately stops him and asks amiably: "Boss Li, you're going back to your cabin. Which cabin are you in?”
Li Yutang smiled politely and said,"No need, no need to trouble yourself."”
Tie Shan quickly steps forward, stretching out his right hand to block Li Yutang's way.
"What trouble! Besides the breeze, we're always chatting on this ship. I love chatting the most. Boss Li, if you don't mind, I'd like to go to the cabin with you and continue chatting!”
He made an inviting gesture and continued,"Thank you for not abandoning me. I would like to invite you over for a cup of tea to express my respect.”
"Boss Li, please!"
Li Yutang saw that the other party was very enthusiastic and couldn't refuse. He smiled and cupped his hands."Sorry to bother you, Boss Jin."
At the same time, Li Yutang was sure that this was a very difficult person to deal with. He had to be careful when talking to him in the future.
Not long after, the two of them arrived outside the open-air restaurant.
"Boss Li, please!"
Tie Shan walked to a table with a huge parasol on top of it. He pulled out a chair and motioned for Li Yutang to sit down. Then, he walked to the seat opposite him and sat down.
Tie Shan looked at the absent-minded Li Yutang and asked,"Boss Li, what kind of tea do you like?”
Li Yutang had been trying to figure out the other party's identity since the beginning. He was a little lost in thought.
He didn't come back to his senses until Tie Shan asked him what tea he wanted.
"Oh, there's no need. Perhaps this old man hasn't been sleeping well recently. I've been absent-minded and just lost my mind! Boss Jin, please don't take offense! Just give me a cup of coffee! It's just nice to refresh my mind."
Tie Shan smiled,"It must be that Boss Li is usually busy with business and forgot to rest!" Boss Li, you should take care of your health!”
After saying that, he casually called over the waiter standing not far away and said to him,"Help us prepare two cups of coffee."
After the waiter left, Tie Shan asked again,"Mr. Li, did you just come back from Xiangjiang City?”
"Yes!" Li Yutang said. I just made a deal in Xiangjiang."
"Haha!"
Tie Shan smiled and said,"Boss Li's business is really big!"”
Li Yutang smiled and asked back," No, it's all for a living. I wonder where Boss Jin is working?"”
Tie Shan looks very modest and says: "I can't compare to Boss Li. I'm running a small business outside. He just came back from Xiangjiang City.”
At this moment, the waiter served the coffee they ordered. After putting it down gently, he said,"Please enjoy your meal!"
He took the tray and left.
Tie Shan took the spoon and stirred it in the coffee cup. He asked naturally,"A few days ago, there was a murder case in Xiangjiang City. Someone from the gang was assassinated.”
"Here comes the main topic!" Li Yutang felt a knot in his heart.
But his face did not change as he said,"Maybe I'm not well-informed enough!" This old man has never heard of such a big thing happening.”
Tie Shan picked up the crutch in his hand and gestured with an exaggerated expression,"I was there at that time. Such a long and thick arrow." Pu!" He was in the car. I saw it with my own eyes. I'm not lying to you."
Looking at the calm Li Yutang, Tie Shan continued,"I heard later! The person sitting in the car was not Mr. Sun at all. It was a substitute. Mr. Sun was the destined one. How could he die so easily?”
He still didn't show any expression.
Tie Shan slightly tilted his body towards Li Yutang and pretended to be mysterious,"I also heard that! That substitute was a rich young master, this rich young master! He was very young and handsome. He had just returned from studying in England and was a talented student.
"This young genius had such a bright future, but it was destroyed just like that. What a pity! What a pity! What do you think, Brother Li?" As she spoke, she pretended to be very sad.
Those who didn't know would really think that he was feeling sorry for the world for losing an outstanding young man!
Li Yutang felt a little sad when he thought of his son who had woken up a year ago and couldn't remember anything. However, he still agreed without changing his expression."Ah! Boss Jin was right! That's right, it's a pity that this young man died just like that!”
At this moment, Li Yutang suddenly remembered what Qin Shaobai had said to him before he left.
The imperial envoy appointed by the imperial court will definitely not let this matter rest. He will definitely look for you to talk. During this period of time, no matter who you are speaking to, you must think twice before you act!
Tie Shan carefully observed Li Yutang's eyes, trying to find some useful information.
Unfortunately, there were no clues at all!
