Chapter 221 The Thief Jumped into the Sea

Less than half an hour.

Song Jin saw the apology sent by the Liu family, and said that the batch of goods that the Liu family had previously stolen was also compensation.

From the words of the person who brought the gift, I learned that the Liu family was worried that Song Jinzhen would go to see Governor Wang.

Song Jin asked someone to leave the apology behind.

That batch of goods was also accepted in full.

He immediately dispatched personnel to transfer the goods to his ship to avoid any further complications.

It just so happens that the goods are at the dock, so we can ask the dock's porters to take care of it.

Song Jin can be considered a generous boss.

The price offered was fair and the wages were paid on the spot.

It’s not that Song Jin doesn’t want to pay a high price.

That would break the rules of the dock.

There are many ships coming and going here, and the prices of porters are almost the same, with little fluctuation. Song Jin uses the excuse of night time to give the highest price at ordinary times, and he is not afraid of offending anyone.

"Is the hold of that ship full?"

Song Jin saw that half of the cargo had not yet been loaded into the cabin. "Then let's change the boat. Xiaocheng, you go and watch it. Don't let those people slack off. Also, keep an eye on the cargo."

After saying that, she winked at Qin Yi.

Qin Yi went over immediately.

As the fully loaded cargo ship left the dock.

Another cargo ship entered the dock, and after docking safely, it began loading cargo.

The original cargo ship dropped anchor a hundred feet away in the sea.

All of this was done under the eyes of the Liu family. The Liu family also brought officials to search the cargo ship that left the dock again and again. They also opened the cargo boxes one by one to confirm that there were no Tibetans inside. Only then did they let it go.

Song Jin looked calm.

He did not object to the Liu family's search at all.

Previously, Song Jin threw the Liu family's guard into the sea. The Liu family was somewhat dissatisfied with her, but now they couldn't say anything.

Why did Song Jin let Qin Yi leave?

Of course, as the cargo ship left, they were out of the Liu family's encirclement. The Liu family was currently searching the ships docked at the pier.

The cargo ship was far away from the dock and was not investigated.

The reason was that the cargo ships anchored at sea were more than a hundred feet away from the dock. The thieves could not hide on those ships even if they wanted to in a hurry, not to mention that the Liu family was chasing Qin Yi very closely. At that time, Qin Yi fled to the dock, and it was not yet completely dark.

When the encirclement is formed, the large ships outside are excluded.

The reason why Song Jin's cargo ship was able to leave the dock was because everything was allowed by the Liu family.

Checked it over and over again.

A living person can't hide.

At the same time, the head of the Liu family also arranged spies to secretly monitor Song Jin's every move on the boat.

Song Jin knew it a long time ago, but pretended not to know.

She glanced somewhere in the cabin and winked at Xing Lun.

Xing Lun was indeed the one who had been with Song Jin the longest, and he could guess her thoughts very well. He immediately said angrily, "Boss, the Liu family is going too far. Why are you still cooperating with them?"

"If you are upright, you have nothing to fear. The Liu family can investigate if they want. Besides, they are offering too much. I cannot refuse. I will feel bad just thinking about refusing."

Song Jin's unreliable tone made people feel angry.

You deserve a beating!

Xing Lun wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh out loud, "Yeah, I wouldn't have thought of it if the boss hadn't mentioned it. The goods from Yoshikawa are worth tens of thousands of taels. I'll make more money after I sell them."

"The generous Master Liu!"

Song Jin said this as if he had no more complaints, "This kind of thing will happen a few more times."

"Isn't the boss afraid of making trouble?"

"I can get money, so what's the big deal about this little fuss?"

Song Jin seemed to have gotten an advantage but still felt it was not enough, which made the people who heard it in the dark speechless.

Come to think of it.

He received tens of thousands of taels of silver in compensation for just this little bit of trouble. Not to mention others, even he was jealous.

Suddenly, "Who is it?"

Qin Qi came out of the cabin and suddenly shouted loudly.

Song Jin and others on the deck pretended to be very nervous. Qin Ba, Xing Lun and others immediately blocked Song Jin.

Just at this moment, the light in the corner could not reach.

There was only a faint light.

A figure passed by and climbed over the guardrail without hesitation.

With a splash, he jumped into the water.

The night is dark and the sea breeze blows towards me.

Song Jin walked a few steps to the guardrail and looked into the water.

There was no sign of the intruder on the surface of the water.

Now the tense atmosphere seemed about to explode.

Song Jin immediately shouted, "Someone come! Someone from the Liu family come quickly! The thief is here, he just jumped into the water!"

"The Liu family, someone from the Liu family, come quickly!"

Xing Lun also shouted loudly.

Other people on the boat also saw it.

A thief in night clothes jumped off the boat and into the sea.

The neighboring Liu family on the dock were attracted.

They came over to investigate, and several fishing lights illuminated the place, and some people began to chase on the water.

The Liu family's skills on the water were really amazing, and after a lot of effort, they actually caught the man.

Wearing night clothes, he wanted to explain that he was sent by the head of the Liu family, but he couldn't say the words for a moment. He could only allow the other party to catch him, tie him up, and take him away.

Song Jin looked frightened. "The Liu family is really powerful. They caught the thief so quickly. How come we searched so many times before but couldn't find the thief? It's really strange. Could there be a traitor in the Liu family?"

This was said unintentionally.

The listener is interested!

The head of the Liu family, who had already rushed here in a hurry and had not rested for a while, was now gritting his teeth.

There must be a traitor in the Liu family.

Otherwise, how could the things he hid in this villa be found so easily?

Song Jin is at the bow.

Greeted the head of the Liu family from a distance.

"Master Liu! Thanks to your people, we found the thief so quickly. If he had stayed here all the time, our safety would have been at risk." Song Jin generously complimented him.

This attitude is much better than before.

The head of the Liu family did not say much, but signaled Song Jin to lower the board.

Song Jin shouted at Xing Lun beside him, "What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and get someone to lower the planks. You have no vision."

Xing Lun also smiled and lowered his head, then went over to have someone lower the plank.

Welcome the head of the Liu family onto the boat.

Naturally, the head of the Liu family came with more than ten guards.

"Master Liu, how about we have a cup of tea together? Maybe next time we come here, we can do business with you. I have heard of Jianning's Tongxin Bailian for a long time."

Song Jin had a smile on his face, but these were not things a human would say.

As soon as the head of the Liu family heard it, he knew that the other party had set his sights on the Tongxin White Lotus and wanted to get involved.

Now is the harvest season for white lotus.

If Song Jin's fleet returned via the Jianjiang (i.e. Minjiang) waterway, it would have to pass through Jianning Prefecture.

The reason why Song Jin could greet the Liu family so calmly on the boat was largely because the real thief Qin Yi was not on this road and had already escaped from the encirclement of the Liu family.

The trouble here is just right to attract the attention of the Liu family.
