Chapter 281 Blackmail Letter
Si Tian opened the car door from the inside: "Is everything cleaned up?"
"Everything has been dealt with. The governor asked me to tell you to go directly to the governor's office." The soldier saluted after saying this.
"Thank you for your hard work in cleaning up the mess." Si Tian said as he took out a handful of silver coins and stuffed them into their hands: "Share these with the brothers!"
"Thank you, Second Master." The soldiers smiled happily.
Si Tian looked at the driver in the front seat and said, "Let's go back to the Governor's Office."
"Okay." The driver restarted the car and turned back to the city.
Siming stood in front of the office window and saw a pigeon flying towards him and landing on the windowsill.
He reached out and took the piece of letter tied to its leg. There was only one sentence on it: Mission accomplished.
Adjutant Min stood aside with a carrier pigeon in his hand, but he didn't dare to release it until Sima Ming gave the order.
Jing Xiuxiu paced back and forth in the hotel room. She was waiting for news from outside the city, but it had been so long and there was still no news at all.
These idiots can’t even catch a disabled person!
She paced back and forth anxiously, lowering her head and biting the nail on her thumb.
Feeling that she was getting a fever again, she grabbed her purse, took out the medicine prescribed yesterday, poured a glass of water and swallowed it.
There are still five days left. If she doesn't get the money within five days, she will be really finished.
She gripped the edge of the table with both hands, her fingers turning white from the exertion: she could definitely do it, definitely.
"Puff, puff, puff." A little pigeon flapped its wings and landed on the windowsill of the hotel.
When Jing Xiuxiu saw the pigeon, she hurried over and grabbed it, took the note from under its feet and threw it away.
The little pigeon cooed and flew up, dropping a drop of bird droppings on the paper she had just opened.
"I'm going to make soup out of you." Jing Xiuxiu yelled at the pigeons outside the window.
This sound attracted the attention of many people around her, and they all looked in her direction.
She quickly closed the window, suppressed her nausea, and wiped the bird droppings off the note with paper, revealing some blurry handwriting.
The person has been caught!
When she saw these words, she immediately burst into laughter: "Hahahaha!"
"Are you fucking sick? You're screaming and laughing all the time. If you go crazy again, I'll kill you."
The people in the next room were so angry at her noise that they started yelling towards her room.
Jing Xiuxiu was in a good mood now. She hummed a little tune, picked out a suitable set of clothes, and put on some beautiful makeup.
But now one of her feet was so swollen that she couldn't wear high heels and could only wear flat shoes. Even so, she still endured the pain and put on the shoes.
He limped out of the hotel and hailed a rickshaw: "Let's go to the Governor's Office."
Siming was feeding the two little pigeons by the window with some delicious food. If Jing Xiuxiu saw them, she would definitely recognize them. These were the pigeons that had just delivered the message to her.
After the two little pigeons had eaten and drunk their fill, they flapped their wings and flew away.
He looked at the little pigeon flying away with a smile on his face. Now every movement in Beiyang City was under his control, all thanks to Juanjuan.
No one knew when these carrier pigeons in Beiyang City started to find him first whenever they wanted to deliver a message.
I let him read the letter on his feet first, and then he let me go. Then he flapped his wings and flew away to continue delivering the letter.
Adjutant Min and the others didn't react at first, but gradually got used to it, but they didn't have the habit of talking too much.
"Qi Siming, how long will your leave last?" Siming asked Adjutant Min without turning around.
"No." Adjutant Min answered honestly.
He thought for a moment and added, "Do we need to call him back?"
"No need, let him take care of his own business first." Siming turned to look at Adjutant Min and said, "Go and inform the soldiers at the door. If Jing Xiuxiu comes, don't stop her."
"Yes." Adjutant Min immediately went to do what he was asked to do.
Siming sat down at his desk and looked through the latest messages.
Wen Ce has identified a location where a hydroelectric power station can be built. The people who have been sent there in recent times have settled down, and a lot of house construction and farming have been completed.
Now we have freed up manpower to participate in the construction of hydropower stations. Most of them have no foundation, so the efficiency will be much lower.
Fortunately, Wen Ce was patient. He would gather everyone together when he returned to the valley at night and explain some knowledge to them.
This will greatly improve work efficiency the next day and save a lot of time.
Lei Ming was really afraid that he would collapse from exhaustion, and then he wouldn't be able to explain himself.
However, after observing for a while, I found that Wen Ce was really working hard. He kept modifying the design drawings and adjusting them to be the most suitable hydroelectric power station here.
A list of the insufficient materials was also made. Si Ming copied a copy of the list and burned the information in his hand.
"Commander-in-Chief, Miss Jing is here." Adjutant Min knocked on the door to report.
"Let her in!" Siming said without raising his head.
Jing Xiuxiu acted anxious and flustered before going in, and tears were already falling before she even entered.
"Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, something bad has happened. Something has happened to A Tian." She pushed Adjutant Min away with an anxious look on her face and limped into the office.
"What could happen to A Tian?" Siming smelled the pungent scent of perfume on her and leaned back unconsciously.
Jing Xiuxiu didn't notice his strangeness. She took out a letter from her handbag and handed it to him: "Someone just delivered this to the hotel where I'm staying."
Sima Ming was disgusted and didn't want to reach out to take it.
Adjutant Min reached out and took the letter from her hand, opened it and started to read it.
He was shocked when he saw the content: "General, the Second Master has been kidnapped."
"What?" Siming reached out, snatched the letter, and read it quickly.
He couldn't help laughing when he saw the final amount: "One million dollars, what a big appetite."
"Brother-in-law, what should we do? We can't just ignore A Tian!" Jing Xiuxiu looked anxious now, with tears welling up in the corners of her eyes.
She took out a handkerchief and carefully wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, with a pitiful expression.
"Adjutant Min, go check and see who is so bold as to touch my brother. If I catch him, I won't keep him alive. I'll kill him right away."
When Siming said the last two words, he spoke them very heavily.
"No." Jing Xiuxiu immediately shouted anxiously.
"No?" Siming narrowed his eyes and looked at her.
Jing Xiuxiu immediately put on that weak expression again: "Brother-in-law, what if we anger them and they kill A Tian?"
"So what do you mean?" Siming looked at her with interest.
"The ransom is not that much. Why don't we pay the ransom and at least A Tian will come back safely." Jing Xiuxiu spoke cautiously.
