Volume 33 Chapter 21

After nearly a week of flight from Yunfeng City in the west of Yingzhou to Fuhai City, the traffic airship landed at an airship take-off and landing base west of Fuhai City at dawn on May 16.

Yunfeng City is already in the inland of Yingzhou, while Fuhai City is on the coast, the goods and products of the two places are very different, so many people who travel between Yunfeng City and Fuhai City in traffic airships are running small businesses merchants.

Large business groups and commercial companies have their own airships, so naturally they don't need to take this kind of public transportation airship.

And this public transport airship is not cheap either. The 6-day and 6-night flight from Yunfeng City to Fuhai City, plus supplies on the way, costs 2 gold coins and 20 silver coins for an ordinary soft sleeper ticket on the airship.

When the airship was about to land, a chubby flight attendant on the airship had already walked into the soft sleeper cabin of the airship with a metal horn, and shouted loudly, "The airship has arrived in Fuhai City, all passengers, please get ready to get off." Pay attention to bring your own salute, passengers who have handled the consignment business get off the airship and take their consignment documents to the cargo hatch to collect the cargo by themselves!"

After the flight attendant said it twice, the passengers in the soft sleeper cabin began to get up one by one and move.

After the soft sleeper cabin was notified once, the flight attendant went to other cabins to notify.

There are more than 30 people sleeping in this soft sleeper cabin. The upper and lower single beds are lined up on the upper and lower floors. The space is very small and crowded. Of course, the room where more than 30 old men who have not showered for a week are sleeping, the air is naturally considered. Not good, in the soft sleeper cabin, foot odor, sweat odor, and men's tobacco smell are filling it. If the airship lands, I'm afraid it will take half an hour to open the windows and blow the wind to dissipate these smells.

"The airship route from Yunfeng City to Fuhai City is becoming more and more difficult. I remember that there was a breakfast when I came here two months ago. I didn't expect the airship to speed up a little during the midway supply and flight. , arrived in Fuhai City before 8:00 in the morning, and even saved everyone’s breakfast!" A peddler in his forties got up, packed his things, and shook his head, "People's hearts are not old..."

"I heard that in order to deal with the jihad, not only airships, but also the railway network of the Taixia states will be fully speeded up, and new steam locomotives will be put in. I heard that the new steam locomotives can run at a speed of 180 kilometers per hour on the railway. It is nearly one-third faster than the current railway locomotive, if you come to Fuhai City in the future, maybe you can try to take the train, it is not slower than the airship!" On the other side of the high bed, a passenger who was climbing out of the bed said.

"Wow, this is a big business. How many billions of gold coins will be spent to complete such an upgrade and transformation of the entire Taixia railway network!" Which family in Xia produced it!"

"Such a big business, how can a family and a business group can afford it? This kind of thing can only be provided by the Taifu Mansion and Gewuyuan in Xuanyuan Hill with the technology and standards, and then the powerful families in each state Buy and win the bid with the business group, each draws a piece of cake, those who have the strength eat a few more, those with less strength eat a few less, everyone does business, everyone makes money." A seasoned voice opened his mouth, and then He said hello, "I heard that several large ships from Yinyue Subcontinent have come to Fuhai Port in the past few days to pack and transport things, and there are also many frontier residents. Who wants to go and see with me!"

"Go together, go together!" someone shouted immediately.

After staying together in a soft sleeper cabin for six days, even people who were not familiar with each other became acquainted at this time. If we communicate with each other, we may find a lot of business opportunities.

There are many vendors in the soft sleeper cabin, but not all of them are vendors.

When the people in the sleeping cabin were bustling with each other and preparing to get off the airship, a person who had been sleeping in an inconspicuous corner of the sleeping cabin also stretched and stood up, tidied his clothes, and walked off the airship with everyone.

Seeing this person approaching, several vendors who were crowded in the narrow aisle of the sleeping cabin quickly moved out of the way.

It was a stalwart man with a height of seven feet. As soon as this big man stood up, the entire soft sleeper seemed to be short. Ordinary people would at least be two heads shorter in front of this big man.

This big man has a fierce bald head, a messy beard, and strong bones. Although he only wears a coarse cloth, under the coarse cloth, he can see a body of strong muscles made of steel. It's just that the thickness of his upper arms, at first glance, is not much thinner than the thighs of those ordinary merchants, and a pair of big futon-like hands can completely cover a person's head. Standing on the fists and galloping on the arms, this sentence is really not an exaggeration for this big man.

The face of the big man is majestic and fierce, with a bald head full of murderous intent, under a pair of thick eyebrows like a big knife, the slender and divine eyes faintly reveal a red light that makes people tremble. I was about to be scared to pee my pants in front of me.

After staying in the soft sleeper cabin for six days, this big man slept on his head except for eating and shitting. Because the big man's face carried a vicious aura, the people in the soft sleeper cabin didn't dare to communicate with him much, so he kept Up to now, no one knows the name of this majestic man.

When the big man was about to step off the airship, a voice suddenly sounded behind him.

"The strong man in front, please stay!"

"What?" The big man stopped and turned around, and the captain of the airship who stopped him immediately felt a pressure on his face, and couldn't help but piled up a bunch of eager smiles on his face.

"Next is Liu Chuan, the captain of this airship. I don't know the name of this strong man Gao?"

"My surname is Cui. Hurry up and talk about something. Don't waste my time!" The big man's voice sounded from his chest, sonorous and low, like thunder. Next, the captain standing in front of him felt the strong wind blowing against his face, and the smile on his face became more cordial.

"That's right. I think you are as majestic as a mountain, and you must have extraordinary abilities. The armed guards of our merchant group are currently recruiting heroes from all walks of life. We need a hero like Cui Zhuangshi the most. I don't know Cui Zhuangshi..."

Captain Liu originally wanted to recruit people for the armed guards of the merchant group he was in. Among other things, he only looked at the majestic figure and size of the surnamed Cui, who looked like a giant spirit god. He is tall, but if he stops there casually, ordinary Xiao Xiao will be shocked, and it is more than enough to be a guard of a business group.

The big man surnamed Cui blinked his eyes and pointed to his nose, "The armed guards of your business group want to recruit me?"

"Exactly, the members of the guards of our Fengyun Merchant Group are paid well, at least 30 gold coins per year, and after entering, they may be taught combat skills by famous experts hired by the Merchant Group, so they can gain a lot of skills!"

The big man surnamed Cui laughed loudly, the laughter was like thunder, and it directly shook Captain Liu in front of him until his ears were buzzing.

The big man slapped Captain Liu Ting on the shoulder, almost making him sit on the ground, "Hahaha... I appreciate it, but you can't afford me!"

Half of Captain Liu's body was numb, but he still smiled, "30 gold coins is the minimum salary. If Cui Zhuangshi has the ability, it will naturally rise with the tide!"

"I want to be named a Marquis, can your Fengyun Merchant Group give it too?"

The smile on Captain Liu's face froze, "Cui Zhuangshi just joked, this is only given by the court!"

"Then it's over..." Amidst the loud laughter, the big man surnamed Cui shook his head, turned around and left, got off the airship, and entered the underground passage away from the airship base...

Could it be that I have misjudged him, this person surnamed Cui is still a strange person who plays games in the world...

Watching the tall figure leaving the airship, Captain Liu was stunned, and a thought came to his mind...

...

An hour later, a big man surnamed Cui stepped forward and appeared on a street full of rich and powerful families in Fuhai City.

The gate of Fan Jizheng's mansion was closed and locked, and there was no one in the house, but outside the gate, there were two white lanterns with two big characters "Dian" written on them. On the side of the ditch in the flower bed, there are still a few pieces of yellow and white paper money that have not been cleaned up, and on the doors of several high-ranking families adjacent to and opposite to the Fan Mansion, a few objects to ward off evil spirits are also quietly hung...

After the first seven days, the members of the Fan family came here to do some sacrifices, and took Fan Jizheng back to his home after recovering from his injuries. The formerly bustling Jizheng Mansion in Fuhai City was completely empty.

When passing by Fan Jizheng's mansion, the big man surnamed Cui took a look at Jizheng's mansion, and then continued to walk forward without squinting.

On the road, I met two criminal arresters patrolling the street, and the big man surnamed Cui walked up directly, "You two, where is the Zhengdao Building in Fuhai City?"

The criminal arrester who patrolled the streets turned around, feeling as if there was a tower in front of him.

The person who can find the criminal arrester to ask where the Zhengdao building is, and who wants to go to the Zhengdao building, naturally cannot be a bad person.

One of the criminal arresters pointed the way patiently.

"Thank you!" The big man surnamed Cui said, and walked away.

What a seven-foot man? The two criminal arresters of Fuhai City glanced at each other, and they couldn't help secretly applauding in their hearts.

...

The Zhengdao Building in Fuhai City is an eight-story attic. This place is equivalent to the Bounty Criminal Arresters Guild in Fuhai City. It is the gathering place for bounty criminal arresters in Fuhai City.

In the Zhengdao Building, bounty criminals can inquire about various news, communicate with each other, accept entrusted tasks, or form a team with other bounty criminals to hunt down the people on the most wanted list.

Because the shocking case happened in Fuhai City two weeks ago, the Zhengdao Building in Fuhai City was quite lively. In the Zhengdao Building, five or six of the ten people inside were discussing the case a few days ago.

The man surnamed Cui did not enter the Zhengdao Building, but sat down in a teahouse not far from Zhengdaolou, drinking tea and eating while listening to the storyteller in the teahouse...
