An eight-year-old kid emptied his scumbag father's warehouse and followed his grandparents into

The old captain had finished his cigarette. He raised his head and looked at Jing Chunxi with a hint of surprise in his eyes. Perhaps he didn't expect that the person who came down to discuss things with him was a little girl.

He originally thought that the lady that Ah Qi was talking about would be one of the other four girls. After all, this kind of thing is usually not something women should worry about, not to mention that this is a little girl of eight or nine years old.

But seeing Jing Chunxi's serious expression, the old captain didn't say much, but just frowned slightly.

Jing Chunxi didn't care about all this. She looked at the old captain and asked directly, "Uncle, what kind of pass do you need? Can we see it?" Her voice was crisp and firm, causing the old captain to frown slightly.

The old captain replied in his rich dialect, "Every time we go out on the ship and pass through several checkpoints, we need several passes. Before we leave the ship, someone puts the passes in a drawer, and they are used up after each trip. We don't have any left."

He only glanced at Jing Chunxi when he spoke, and then turned to Ah Qi, obviously looking down on her as a little girl. In his opinion, how could a little girl solve such a difficult problem?

"Drawers, what kind of drawers?" Jing Chunxi asked curiously. She didn't remember finding any drawers on the ship! She had walked around every room.

The old captain gestured as he spoke: "It's in the top cabin where we steer the ship. There is a small cabinet there, and the small drawer is on the cabinet." He gestured with his hands to indicate the position and size of the small drawer.

Jing Chunxi nodded in understanding and said "Oh", then asked, "It's usually there before the ship leaves, right?"

The old captain nodded honestly: "Yeah! But I just checked, and there's nothing in the drawer." There was a hint of helplessness in his tone, and it was obvious that he also realized the seriousness of the problem.

Jing Chunxi's heart was beating like a frog, and he thought to himself: What were you doing before? Why did you open the drawer now?

She couldn't help but blame the old captain for his negligence in her heart, but she didn't show it on the surface.

Seeing that the two men were silent, the old captain knew that they were also in trouble and must not have the thing in their hands.

He continued to turn around and asked Ah Qi's opinion: "Should we go back and get it?"

The old captain's idea was simple: since they could charter a government-issued ship, it was impossible for them to not have a permit. At most, they simply forgot to get it, or simply didn't know about it. In his opinion, returning to get the permit was probably the only viable solution.

Jing Chunxi was also uncomfortable with the old captain's neglect and just wanted to resolve the matter quickly. After thinking for a while, she replied to Ah Qi: "No need, I'll find a solution, you just go to sleep!" Her tone was very firm, as if she could do it if she said it.

She turned and walked away. Even standing in the doorway, the smell of cigarette smoke was still overwhelming. If she continued to smell it, Jing Chunxi felt like she was going to vomit. The smell of cigarette smoke was poisoning her mind, making her feel extremely uncomfortable.

Only the old boatman and Ah Qi were left behind, disheveled in the wind.

The old boatman thought to himself: This girl is really arrogant, can she really change? I want to see what she can do.

Ah Qi was wondering in her heart: "Miss, are you really capable? Is this because you smelled the stinky cigarettes and you're holding a grudge against me? At least we should finish discussing this before we leave."

He looked at Jing Chunxi's back, his heart full of doubts and worries. If they had gone by land, perhaps he could have notified Young Master Tao's people to send him over, but this waterway was far away and there was no village or shop nearby. Where could he find anyone to notify?

But he also had a vague hope, hoping that there was nothing the young lady could not do.

"Miss, do you have a solution?" Xiao Man had just listened carefully in the cubicle and was now extremely curious. He couldn't wait any longer and followed Jing Chunxi up the stairs, finally putting on his shoes.

There were suddenly two fewer people in Uncle Seven's compartment. He had originally wanted to sleep there, but now seeing how disgusted the young lady was, he didn't want to do it anymore.

What if the young lady also finds him smelly and suddenly doesn't want him to follow her? What then? Is he just a bodyguard? He was in a state of turmoil, but he couldn't help but follow her.

"Xiao Man forgot, Miss, do I have the seal in my hand?" Jing Chunxi stared at him with disgust and asked his soul.

Xiao Man had an expression as if he wanted to get to the bottom of the matter: "But what does the pass look like? We don't know either!" His words were to the point and directly pointed out the crux of the matter.

Jing Chunxi was a little annoyed by his question. How could she not know this? Wasn't she trying to figure it out? She said in a bad mood, "Don't think too much, little kid. You won't grow tall. Just go to bed." After that, she walked into her room.

Jing Chunxi put down the mosquito net, which didn't need to be lowered in winter, and tied it tightly around the edges.

She took off her clothes and lay down on the bed angrily. Chuntao and Tangshuang didn't dare to ask anything. They only knew that the young lady went downstairs and came back unhappy.

Actually, Jing Chunxi wasn't unhappy at all. She was just a little anxious! She wouldn't leave the seal of the County Magistrate's Office to the next County Magistrate. She had already stored it in her space, but the pass had to have a template, otherwise the people at the checkpoint might not recognize it.

Besides, who knows if the pass was stamped with the military seal or the county magistrate's seal? Or maybe even the Xunyang County government seal? It's not something you can guess at.

Jing Chunxi's mind was in a turmoil, and she couldn't sleep at all. She also felt a little dizzy from breathing in the stale air.

I decided to go into the space to get some fresh air and think of a solution. Unexpectedly, as soon as I looked up, I saw seven other large ships lying quietly in the stream.

Do you put the pass in the drawer before leaving the ship?

Suddenly thinking of the old captain's words, Jing Chunxi looked at the five large ships that had already been loaded with cargo, and suddenly felt a little lucky: Maybe the drawers of these five ships already have passes! As long as one of them has it, it will be easy.

At worst, she could figure out a way to get a return pass once she got to Jian'an County. Maybe Brother Xiaokang had already prepared one for her! If that didn't work, she would just sneak into the county magistrate's office and become a thief.
