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

Jing Chunxi excitedly ran to the ship, her steps brisk and eager. She trotted along the narrow cabin corridor, heading straight for the second floor. The stairs were a bit steep, but she didn't care, climbing up two steps at a time.

When she reached the second floor, she paused for a moment, gathered herself, and then continued to move towards the top warehouse, which was the only place she had not entered last time.

The top cabin was small, but very well-lit. She carefully entered and, following the captain's instructions for the helm, found the wooden cabinet on the right. The cabinet's surface was a bit rough, but Jing Chunxi didn't care; she simply reached for the handle.

The cabinet contained some sundries and a set of clothes, but there was indeed a drawer in the middle of the cabinet. With a strong pull, the drawer was pulled open by her.

However, my hope was dashed in an instant! The drawer was completely empty, not even a needle in it, it was spotless.

Jing Chunxi's heart sank, but she remained undeterred. She told herself that with so many ships, it was impossible for any of them to not have a pass. She couldn't give up; she had to keep searching.

She searched for it one ship at a time, shuttling between the still ships in the space. The air in the space was very good, fresh and cool. After running a few ships, she didn't feel tired at all, and the dizziness she had felt before gradually disappeared.

However, repeated disappointment weighed heavily on her heart. The ship was supposed to leave at dawn, and the hold was already packed with cargo, so why couldn't they bear to put a few pieces of paper in there early? Jing Chunxi felt helpless and anxious.

As she searched, she kept cursing in her heart: dog officials, dog emperor, dog prince, dog tutor... She cursed everyone she could think of, even her scumbag father.

Obviously, God did not help her. After four ships came down, she found nothing, but she still did not dare to give up the last ship.

She told herself that the time to witness a miracle was coming! Maybe the next ship would yield something.

When Jing Chunxi entered the top warehouse again, she was already feeling a bit complicated. She touched the drawer handle, closed her eyes, and kept chanting in her heart: "Buddha, please bless me, mountain gods, water gods, land gods, please bless me."

She even mentioned the name of the fairy aunt, hoping that the gods could hear her voice and bring her good luck.

The drawer opened a crack, and Jing Chunxi opened her eyes. At first glance, she saw only the yellow wood grain, not a single piece of white paper in sight. Her heart instantly sank to the bottom of the valley.

She tilted her head back, continued to close her eyes, and suddenly pulled the entire drawer forward. The drawer suddenly lost its support and fell to the ground with a "bang". Jing Chunxi withdrew her foot in time to avoid being hit. Her heart was beating wildly, and she was so nervous that she almost suffocated.

However, when she mustered her courage and slowly lowered her head, the corners of her mouth lifted unconsciously, revealing a smile. The floor was littered with two palm-sized pieces of paper, each covered in bright red stamps.

Jing Chunxi couldn't help laughing in her heart: Haha, there must be a great god who heard her thoughts and responded from all directions.

There really were passes, and not just a few, but a thick stack. Perhaps all five boats had set out together, and the passes for both trips had been put together.

Jing Chunxi squatted down and carefully picked up one of them, examining it closely. The pass was made of fine, thick paper, and the text was clearly visible. It was stamped with three large seals. The first was from the Jiujiang Prefecture Office, the second from the Jian'an Prefecture Office, and there was another round stamp. She couldn't make out the characters, but she assumed it was military-related. This pass with three seals was clearly more authoritative than she had imagined.

Jing Chunxi couldn't help but curse in his heart: "Dog prince, dog tutor."

Jing Chunxi secretly felt relieved. If she couldn't find this thing, and if she only relied on the big seal in her hand, the boat might not be able to pass and the people would be detained.

She carefully put the pass away, then stood up and breathed a long sigh of relief. Her heart finally relaxed, and a relaxed smile appeared on her face.

It was just dawn, and the morning light shone through the mist onto the river.

There was a gentle knock on Ah Qi's door. The sound was not loud, but it seemed particularly urgent. Ah Qi jumped up from the bed, dragged his heavy steps to the door, and opened it.

Jing Chunxi saw that the person in front of him had a pair of panda eyes and a decadent expression, which looked extremely funny.

Jing Chunxi looked at Ah Qi with great energy, and said with a hint of teasing, "The smell of cigarettes is too strong, can't you sleep?"

Ah Qi was speechless. His mouth moved slightly, and a trace of guilt appeared on his face. He lowered his head and said in a low voice, "Ah Qi was incompetent and thus lacked the pass. Please punish me, Miss."

He couldn't sleep all night, his mind full of the pass. He thought that because of his negligence, he would definitely be forced to return home, and might even have to take the land route to Jian'an County, which would waste a lot of time.

Thinking about how he had let down the boat that the young lady had worked so hard to get, he felt full of remorse. Last night, he was so angry that he almost went to find a hookah to smoke in order to calm himself down and find a better solution.

Jing Chunxi looked at Ah Qi and couldn't help asking, "Will you get a pass when you go back?"

Ah Qi was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect the lady to ask such a question. He stammered, "Well..."

Ah Qi felt that no matter what he said, he would be wrong, so he could only ask quietly: "What should we do then? Should we take the land route?"

If they change to the land route now, they will have to take another three days. Ah Qi felt uncomfortable no matter how he thought about it. He frowned and looked helpless.

Jing Chunxi looked at Ah Qi's sad face and didn't want to keep him in suspense any longer.

The corners of her mouth curled up slightly, and she pulled out a stack of papers from her bosom and handed them to him. "Here you go! The pass. Remember to tell the old captain that we'll dock in Jianning County this afternoon. Before entering someone else's territory, we'll first replenish our supplies."

Ah Qi was stunned. He looked at the paper the lady handed him, his heart filled with surprise and astonishment. He quickly grabbed the paper tightly and read it carefully. The paper looked very thick, at least ten sheets, each one smooth and new.

Ah Qi looked at the young lady suspiciously, wondering: Where did this pass come from? Could it be that the young lady forged it herself?

But he still looked at the first one carefully with a look of suspicion, until he saw the three large seals on the back, and he was completely speechless. Knowing that this was not something the young lady could have done on her own, without the old captain's personal confirmation, Ah Qi knew that this was the real pass.

He secretly marveled at the fact that the pass was stamped with the seals of the Jiujiang and Jian'an prefectural governments, as well as the military. Even if someone turned around and broke into the government office to rob, it would be difficult to steal such a pass.

Ah Qi was so excited that his teeth were showing and his eyes were not visible. He opened his mouth and grinned like some kind of animal. He said excitedly: "Master Tao's people are really elusive. They can even find us wherever we land."

He suddenly remembered that Young Master Tao's men could move freely under the noses of himself and his thirty guards, but they didn't notice at all. He couldn't help feeling a little scared.

Then he looked at Jing Chunxi with a guilty conscience, thinking that when he returned to Daqingshan, he would have to train these guards like dogs.

Jing Chunxi sighed and thought to herself: Okay, okay, I deserved it for all my hard work. In the end, it was all someone else's fault.

Finally, she looked at Ah Qi's two dark circles under his eyes and said unhappily, "Look at you, you look like an evil ghost crawling out of the ground. Hurry up and finish your arrangements and have a good sleep." After that, she turned around and left.

But he didn't look angry at all.

How could she not be happy thinking that she could take a walk in the mountain town of Jianning County in the afternoon?

They hadn't left the ship for three days, and they had to keep their heads down to get in and out of the cramped compartments. The space on deck was also limited, leaving them with very little free time.

She returned to her room and sat on the bed, her heart full of anticipation. She could go for a walk on the shore in the afternoon, and the thought of it made her happy.

Chuntao and Tangshuang finally calmed down after seeing the sudden change in the young lady's facial expression. If the young lady had continued to be the same as last night, even the thought of eating meat would have been unappetizing.
