The big bandit in the Red Mansion robbed Lin Daiyu at the beginning

The commander swallowed his saliva, smiled and bowed,

"I know! It's fair and just, and no one is cheated!"

"Yes, Not Bad!"

Chocolate nodded in satisfaction.

"Isn't that it?"

"According to the rules of our Qingfeng Village, if one person resists, the entire team will be implicated!"

"Since you've obeyed the rules of our village, I won't implicate you all together. I'll only charge a starting price. Isn't that fair and just?"

"Isn't the heir of the Rongguo Mansion worth this starting price?"

Commander Lai was slightly startled, then nodded.

"This... is worth it! Fair, fair!"

Chocolate snorted coldly and slowly stood up.

At this time, a man walked up to him, bowed and clasped his fists, and said,

"We've searched the ship inside and out! Nothing of value was found, but we did find this letter!"

As he spoke, he handed over an envelope.

Jia Lian turned his head and saw that it was the letter he had brought with him, written by his mother Jia to the Yangzhou Salt Inspector, his uncle the Lin family.

Suddenly a plan came to mind, and he hurriedly said,

"So that the king can know that my uncle is the fourth-rank salt inspector of Yangzhou. I hope you can..."

Chocolate took the letter and put it in his arms without even reading it.

He interrupted Jia Lian directly.

"You're right! If that's the case, then let your uncle pay for it!"

Then he waved his hand.

"Come on! Take this kid back!"

Jia Lian said anxiously,

"King Pig, no, no! That's not what I meant!"

What he meant was that he wanted this group of pirates to let him go for the sake of his uncle Lin Ruhai.

But unexpectedly, this guy actually wanted his uncle to pay the money.

Several servants brought from Rongguo Mansion have been killed or injured, and I don’t know how to explain it when I return.

If this matter were reported back to Rongguo Mansion, let alone whether he could be reused by the mansion,

I don’t know what punishment I will get!

But why would Chocolate care what he thinks?

Several men immediately stepped forward and tied Jia Lian up tightly.

Jia Lian cried out in grief and anger.

"How dare you! I belong to the Rongguo Mansion..."

Zhuguli directly tore off the loincloth hanging on the spear and stuffed it into Jia Lian's mouth.

Jia Lian's eyes suddenly widened, his eyes were bloodshot, and he struggled desperately.

But it was useless, and he was carried off the boat by two men.

All the soldiers on the ship, including the commander, stayed where they were quietly and didn't dare to move.

The descendants of Rongguo Mansion are valuable, and the people of Qingfeng Village will exchange them for silver and will not do anything to them easily.

However, if these soldiers dare to act rashly, they will only end up dead.

As for the servants brought by Jia Lian, they all wanted to bury their heads in their crotches.

Except for Zhao'er who just stood up and screamed, he was kicked unconscious by someone.

Chocolate looked at everyone on the boat and said coldly,

"Within three days, the starting silver will be delivered to Qingfeng Village!"

"Otherwise, you can just wait to collect the body of your heir to the Rongguo Mansion!"

After saying that, Chocolate ignored everyone's reactions.

He waved to both sides.

All the pirates retreated back to the speedboat in an orderly manner, and some of them even removed the spears that were stuck in the hull.

Then he took Jia Lian and slowly rowed the boat away from there.

These pirates came and went quickly.

In just a moment, there was no trace of him.

The water on the calm lake rippled and slowly returned to its flowing state.

If it weren't for the several servants lying on the deck of the ship covered in blood, Jia Lian would have disappeared.

No one would have thought that just before this, pirates would actually rob the ship.

After a while, someone on the boat made a "splash" sound.

His tense spirit relaxed and he fell directly onto the boat.

Then came the sound of "thump thump" one after another.

Zhao'er, the servant beside Jia Lian, was also awakened at this time.

Zhao'er, with a sad face, ran up to the commander and asked anxiously,

"Commander, where is my Second Master?"

Commander Lai glanced at the river and remained silent.

Zhao'er fell to the ground instantly.

"Oh, Second Master! How did you get captured by pirates? How am I going to explain this to Second Madam when I get back?"

"These damn bandits! Turn back..."

The commander rolled his eyes helplessly and said,

"Shut up! If you want to die, don't drag us down with you!"

"I had already told your Second Master to surrender and pay the toll, but he refused to listen."

"Otherwise, how could we end up like this?"

Zhao'er was suddenly in a panic.

The commander didn't want to pay any attention to it, but his general was a member of the Jia family and was now captured by Qingfeng Village. If something really happened, he would not be able to escape responsibility.

After thinking for a while, he said to Zhao'er,

"Well, I will take my men back to report to my general and hear his opinion."

Then he looked at Zhao'er and said,

"Take the rest of your people to Yangzhou and see Lord Lin to see how he arranges it!"

"But I suggest you pay the starting price as soon as possible and redeem your Second Master first!"

After saying that, the commander ignored Zhao'er and the others' anger.

He directly ordered people to dock the ship, and then took everyone off the ship and left.

Only this large ship was left, drifting empty on the river.

……

On a fast boat heading to Yangzhou,

Chocolate had a happy look on his face and was humming an inexplicably cheerful tune, clearly in a good mood.

At this time, one of the subordinates asked in confusion,

"Master, why are you so happy today?"

Yes, this Chocolate is none other than the head of Zhengshun Hall, one of the nine halls outside Qingfeng Village, who is in charge of waterway shipping, Chocolate!

Chocolate laughed and patted his shoulder.

"Xiao Wang! We're going back this time to participate in the monthly evaluation of the various halls on the mountain. Our Zhengshun Hall is definitely going to win the floating red flag!"

"Hahaha, this hall master is very kind!"

"Really?"

The subordinate looked extremely excited.

Chocolate said disdainfully,

"Would this hall master deceive a mere captain like you?"

The team leader known as Xiao Wang also looked extremely excited.

"That's great! Our Zhengshun Hall can finally get a red flag!"

"Hehe! That's right! Xiao Wang, work hard!"

Chocolate hummed smugly.

"Hey! It's a must!"

Xiao Wang chuckled and said in a slightly speechless tone,

"However, Hall Master, my subordinate's name is Wang Xiaoji. This Xiao Wang is a little less domineering!"

"How about you just call me Xiaoji?"
