"Even if you don't say it, I know that you were sent by Colonel Akagi," said Scarface with an unhappy face.

After hearing this, Masayoshi felt a little puzzled. Why did the other party always think that he was the subordinate of Colonel Akagi? The name of Colonel Akagi should be a person himself? Could it be that? Thinking of this, the word "Japanese pirates" suddenly popped up in Masayoshi's mind.

Hum, no matter what, the person who can come here to join the Ming officials is not a simple product, either Japanese pirates or local tyrants. Since that's the case, I'd just go with the flow and blame the other party. Thinking of this, Zhengliang pretended to be dissatisfied and said: "Since you already know your identity, please exchange it quickly."

"This time I brought you all the things you need, and now they are loaded in the ship behind. You can see if this is the case. You and our sides will send one person to the other side's ship to check it, so that both of us can rest assured." Hearing that Zhengliang affirmed his judgment, Scarfaced heart finally let go, at least his son should be unhindered. Of course, to be on the safe side, he immediately made this suggestion.

"In addition, in order to show sincerity and apologize for the last misunderstanding, we will leave a hostage to you. This hostage is the culprit that caused the last goods to be unable to be delivered in time. You can deal with it at will." Before Zhengliang could respond to his proposal just now, Scarface immediately lowered his voice. Anyway, the master has decided to get rid of this fat man who knows too much insider information. Instead of having to deal with him after the exchange is completed, it is better to do a favor now. On the one hand, it can reduce the other party's resentment and make the son still in the other party's hands treat him slightly better. On the other hand, it is also to use these people's hands to get rid of this waste. Why not do it? With my long-standing understanding of these Japanese pirates, as long as I get to the other party's hands, I will definitely die.

Hum? Zhengliang was stunned. If there is a problem, there is definitely a problem. Judging from the Scarface meaning, it seems to be a hint that he can get rid of it. There must be a hidden story here. Since that is the case, why not just agree to the other party for a moment and then interrogate it after getting out of danger. Besides, the other party now proposes that one person be sent to the ships of both sides to check. Zhengliang also doesn't care at all. Even if the other party is a martial arts master, it is impossible for him to be a rival to Wang Hai and other sailors who have passed by the water on the water, so Zhengliang is not worried at all that the other party will make fraud.

So Zhengliang thought about it briefly and agreed to the other party's request.

The next thing was simple. Both sides sent one person to the ship to confirm the hostages and cargo, and then under the surveillance of both sides, the exchange of supplies and hostages was completed. The poor fat man was knocked fainted from the back of his head by his scarfaced subordinates and gloriously became a hostage to Zhengliang.

After the exchange was completed, the two sides immediately left separately. Zhengliang was worried about small actions in secret, and Scarface was also worried about Zhengliang's temporary change of mind. After all, in terms of number of people, he was much smaller. Once the change occurred, they would definitely be the party that suffered losses. So, under the condition of mutual suspicion, the two fleets quickly left the exchange location.

Zhengliang took three newly obtained boxes of goods to the shore./Then the two ships were sunk (these ships were temporarily bought from the poor fishermen, and Zhengliang gave them enough money to buy a new ship or start a new life), covering up the traces of landing, and unconsciously drilled into the dense forest where people had already surveyed the path and left calmly.

"Your Highness, counted it, a total of 500 taels of gold, and there are 10 fire systems, and there are also a lot of gunpowder." An hour later, in a mountain temple where people had been stationed, Liu Le, who was responsible for counting goods, reported, "In addition, there is a letter inside."

"Yes" Masara took the letter and read it. He knew the existence of the letter. Before leaving, Scarface mentioned the letter to him and asked Masara to pass it on his behalf to Colonel Akagi, and stated that if Colonel Akagi could not follow the conditions in the letter, there would be no need to continue to cooperate in the future.

Masara looked at the letter carefully. The letter was anonymous, which was inevitable, and the other party would definitely not want to leave any handle. There are three main information in the letter. The first is to ask Colonel Akagi to increase the price in the future transaction, otherwise he would not be able to obtain any benefits from Zhang Tuiguan; the second is to briefly analyze the last time that he could not fulfill his transaction promise in time; the third is information about the fat man.

After reading the letter, Zhengliang turned his head to look at You Jianxia who had been drinking on the side, bowed and said, "Fortunately with Brother You's help this time, it would be so smooth." This time, You Jianxia's men made a lot of efforts in buying a ship and taking wind along the way.

"Hahaha, Brother Luo doesn't have to be too polite. It's just a slight effort," You Jianxia bowed and replied.

"According to the agreement, the 100 taels of gold in the wooden box belongs to Brother You," Zhengliang said with a smile.

"I'll be disrespectful, then I'll give it up," said You Jianxia. After all, there are still people in the family who want to eat, and 100 taels of gold is enough for him to support him for a long time.

"Does Brother Luo have something important? If so, it would be inconvenient to disturb me here." Since Zheng Liang has proposed to allocate goods now, there must be something important to do next, and it is likely to be related to the letter. You Jianxia is also very sensible and takes the initiative to avoid it first.

"No, Brother You doesn't need to do this, or you will be interested in listening to what's next." Zhengliang said mysteriously, "Wake that person up here."

Upon hearing this, Kinoshita Masaru and others immediately woke up the fat man who was caught with Shimizu and brought him to Masarara.

Pang Mian had just been awakened, and there was still a slight pain in the back of her head. She had just adapted to it. When he calmed down, he immediately exclaimed because he found that the guy who had just exchanged hostages with Scarface was looking at him. At the same time, what scared him even more was that he found that his hands were tied.

Obviously, he entered the wolf's den.

"No need to read it. I have good news and bad news to tell you now," Zhengliang said with a smile. "The good news is that you are still alive now. The bad news is that you have been sold to me by your Shangguan, and you will die soon."

"Ah?" The fat man was shocked when he heard this. He was usually pampered and thought that he would encounter such a thing, and immediately scared his soul and seven souls.

It took a long time to come back to his senses before the fat man quickly climbed to Zhengliang's feet and begged: "Sir, please spare the villain's life."

"No, I can't spare your life," Zhengliang shook his head and said.

"Ah? Big... sir." When Zhengliang said, the fat man was a little desperate. He thought Zhengliang was going to kill him.

"Let him see this letter." Masarara waved his hand and asked Kinoshita Masaru, who was standing next to the fat man, to spread the letter in front of the fat man.

Then the torch light came, and the fat man looked at the letter in confusion. Soon, the fat man trembled.

"How? Now I know that I can't spare your life?" Zhengliang said. Zhengliang originally planned to bring the fat man back, interrogate him and then put him back. Scarface planned to use a knife to kill people. If Zhengliang is really a Japanese pirate, it would make Scarface come true. The problem is Zhengliang. So Zhengliang originally planned to let the fat man know who sold him. Then let him go back and let him stumble on Zhang Tuan.

Unfortunately, the other party is not a good-looking lamp. How could he let a person who knows their background go back alive? So the letter already stated that the fat man had already been poisoned before coming to exchange hostages with Masayoshi. At the fastest time, the Mingri would completely attack, showing that he could not speak, and then his mind was blurred. In the end, he would die of poison. It was obvious that this was a slow nerve poison used in the world.

"No... impossible?" the fat man murmured to himself.

"If it is really as stated in the letter, then you can feel it yourself. I believe you should be able to feel it now," said Zhengliang.

When the fat man heard this, he really tried to calm down, and then closed his eyes and felt it.

"Ah? I don't want to die. Woo woo..." Soon the fat man cried a little with a breakdown. Obviously, he also noticed the changes in his body.

"If I let you go back now, I believe you can still find an antidote," Zhengliang said suddenly.

The fat man's crying stopped completely.

"Sir, please let the villain go back, the villain will definitely report it thickly." The fat man tried to climb to Zhengliang's feet again, but was pressed by the two people behind him.

"Haha, I can let you go, but I want to know some things. If you can talk about them in detail, I might let you go," said Zhengliang.

"It's okay to ask, if the villain knows it, he will definitely inform him in detail." Now it is related to his life, so the fat man is of course trying his best to cooperate.

"Okay, now I'll ask, you answer. If there is something false, I will cut you off without waiting for you to get poisonous," Zhengliang threatened.

"Yes, the villain will definitely cooperate," said the fat man hurriedly.

"The letter mentioned that this time your goods were robbed during the delivery. What is going on?" Zhengliang asked.

"Sir, this is what it is..." Hearing Zhengliang's question, the fat man immediately cooperated to describe it.

Immediately afterwards, Zhengliang asked a few more questions, and the fat man knew everything.

"So that's how it is!" When the fat man answered all Zhengliang's questions, Zhengliang sighed.

"Hmph, these dog officials collude with Japanese pirates and fish and meat people, should be cut into pieces!" You Jianxia, ​​who was next to him, was also very angry after hearing this. As a military family, he naturally had no good impression of corrupt officials.

"Come on, drag down." Since I got the news I wanted to know, there was naturally no need for this fat man to survive. Even if he was about to be poisoned, Zhengliang did not plan to let him live for a few more hours. First, Zhengliang and others would leave here soon after the task was completed. After all, they kidnapped the son of a high-ranking official in the local area, and even if they returned the person back now. But who knows whether the other party would go out of the city to search for it immediately? Second, a little smarter person would guess from Zhengliang's question just now that Zhengliang was not the Colonel Akagi. Although the fat man looked so angry with Zhang Tuiguan, he might go back to provide this information to Zhang Tuiguan in order to get the antidote. Zhengliang and others would be in trouble at that time.

"Ah? Sir? No, please don't kill villains!" What a smart person. He knew that he was about to be in trouble in his tone. He immediately exclaimed.

Masara waved his hand and signaled Kinoshita Masaru and others to pull him down.

"Stone! Stone! I am my second uncle! Beg for me!" At this moment, the fat man suddenly shouted to Shi Tou, who had been lowering his head not far behind Zhengliang.

"Second Uncle?" Zhengliang looked at the stone that was already trembling slightly when he heard this.
