Every member of the Tiger Gang has a token to verify their identity.
The gang leader has a gold-plated token. After Wang Meng became the gang leader, Chen Sheng handed this thing to him as proof of Wang Meng's ascension to the position of the new gang leader.
Qin Yuesheng touched the token in his hand, which was larger than his palm, and said to himself, "Tiger Gang, you guys are really endless. It seems that Qingyang City can't keep you here."
After putting down the token, Qin Yuesheng picked up the small jar, which contained two longan-sized pills. They smelled quite fragrant, but Qin Yuesheng didn't dare to take them rashly because he didn't know their efficacy.
After all, he didn't know whether he would gain the almighty essence or die directly after eating the poisonous pill with the help of the super assistant.
You can't gamble on this kind of thing.
As for the pure gold insole, Qin Yuesheng asked Chunfeng to wash it and melt it down later so that he could use it as funds to buy pills.
At present, Qingyang City has not been purchasing large quantities of pills, so Qin Yuesheng plans to choose a day when he has some free time to go to Yangzhou Prefecture to do some shopping. Of course, the prerequisite is that the funds must be in place, as good pills are not cheap.
"Young Master."
At this time, Cao Zhengchun walked in from outside. Something like that had just happened in the mansion, so Qin Yuesheng asked Cao Zhengchun to go and see Qin Feng's reaction.
Although he didn't know the reason for this, Qin Yuesheng could guess that Wang Meng broke into the Qin Mansion because of him. After all, while he was killing people, the guy kept shouting for the Qin family's children to come out and see him.
"Young Master, the master is not at home, and the second wife is not here either." Cao Zhengchun said.
"Oh? Where did it go then?"
"I heard from Ah Fu, who serves the master, and Ah Xiang, who serves the second lady, that a cargo ship belonging to the Qin family that was previously transporting goods to Chang'an will arrive at the Gusu dock this morning. The master and the second lady are both going to pick it up."
"Oh." Qin Yuesheng breathed a sigh of relief: "So they're not in the house. I was wondering why they weren't there after all the commotion just now."
Handing the small jar to Cao Zhengchun, Qin Yuesheng said, "Go and do me one more thing. Take this to Doctor Hua to check if it's poisonous or harmful to the human body. If not, take it back."
"yes."
…
Gusu Wharf.
Qingyang City is close to the Gusu River and has merchants traveling back and forth from the south to the north, so water transportation is very developed.
This time, the cargo ship that Qin Feng specially sent people to Chang'an to purchase goods arrived, so he naturally had to go to the dock to check it in person.
As the head of the Qin family, Qin Feng certainly didn't need to personally handle ordinary goods, but this time the cargo ship coming in from Chang'an was carrying expensive jade and wood, with a total value of more than four thousand taels of gold.
This amount of money is not a small sum for the Qin family, so Qin Feng is particularly concerned about it.
Duan Hongjin and I were standing at the dock. A two-story cargo ship was approaching from the upper reaches of the Gusu River. Three large flags were planted on the bow, each with the word "Qin" written on it.
The boat relies on the sails, and the sails rely on the wind, but it flies all the way forward.
"Master, the boat is here." Duan Hongjin said softly.
"Yeah." Qin Feng nodded, and his tense body finally relaxed a lot.
The merchant ship approached the dock, and the entire scene was in the eyes of everyone on the shore, but strangely, there was not a single crew member on the deck at this moment, and the entire ship was quite quiet.
This situation is extremely abnormal. Generally speaking, after docking, it is necessary to drop anchor, hang ropes, and lower sails, otherwise the ship will hit the dock or continue to drift downstream without restriction.
"Master and Madam, be careful!"
Guards immediately pulled Qin Feng and Duan Hongjin apart. Within a few blinks of an eye, the cargo ship slammed into the edge of the dock, creating numerous cracks in the bluestone of the dock.
If Qin Feng had not moved away for a distance, it would have been dangerous.
"What's going on? Why isn't there even a single person dropping anchor?" The Qin family boatmen guarding the dock raised questions one after another.
Several people with quick reactions immediately took out the emergency rope hook on the shore and threw it towards the ship. After securing the cargo ship's fence, they quickly climbed onto the deck and prepared to drop anchor on board.
However, the moment they stepped onto the deck, the sailors were stunned.
What appeared before their eyes were human skins scattered all over the ground.
The tingling scalp and cold back are the best description of their current situation.
"What are you doing there? Hurry up and secure the boat." A supervisor from the Qin family standing on the dock shouted loudly.
"Dead, dead people, there are dead people everywhere."
"Hmm?" Qin Feng and Duan Hongjin looked at each other.
Even though they hadn't seen the situation on the deck, they already felt that something was wrong.
"Secure the boat and lower the wooden ladder so we can go up and take a look." Qin Feng said.
Those boatmen were eating the Qin family's food, so naturally they had to do their job. Even if they were scared, they still did it obediently. Soon, as several heavy anchors were thrown from the deck into the water, the cargo ship immediately stabilized, and hemp ropes as thick as an adult's wrist were thrown onto the dock.
The boatmen who stayed at the dock hurriedly tied the hemp ropes to the iron rods embedded in the dock ground, and in this way, the ship was completely controlled.
Watching a wooden ladder made of square boards being slowly lowered, Qin Feng said to Duan Hongjin, "Don't go up. Just stay here and wait for me."
"Yes, sir."
When he walked onto the deck, Qin Feng finally understood why those sailors were so panic-stricken.
The scene before him was truly beyond the endurance of an ordinary person. Even though Qin Feng was the patriarch of the Qin family, he couldn't help but feel cold all over and speechless when he saw the human skins scattered on the ground.
