Huo Xi glanced at the hiding place where Huo Erhuai and others were hiding, and saw that they were all stretching their necks to look towards her in the darkness.
He trotted back.
"How's it going, Xi'er?"
"Dad, there doesn't seem to be anyone inside."
"No one? How could there be no one? Such a big warehouse." When Qian Sanduo and others heard that there was no one, they all came out of the darkness.
Looking at the warehouse in front of me, I couldn't believe it. "Such a big warehouse doesn't need to be guarded at night?"
"There is no one to guard, which is convenient for us to attack. If they dare to swallow our goods, we will also dare to empty theirs!" Damn it, are they only allowed to bully these poor people?
Huo Xi pursed her lips.
"Xi'er, what's wrong? Something is wrong?"
"Dad, I'm worried it's empty."
"Ah? How is this possible?" Maggie and others didn't believe it.
"Let's go take a look."
The group of people walked towards the warehouse.
"Master, they are indeed here." As soon as it got dark, the young master couldn't sit still and pulled him out, saying that there was a lot of fun.
The cat had been sleeping all night, the mosquitoes were all fattened up, and he didn't see any excitement. Li Neng even thought that he had offended the young master, who came here specifically to entertain him.
Unexpectedly, I was impatient and saw a group of fishermen who had been tricked during the day and came to destroy the place.
It was fun to watch.
"It's a waste of time." Gong Ziyi clicked his tongue.
"Ah, you came here for nothing? No fun?"
Gong Ziyi rolled his eyes at him, wondering if Li Neng could see it.
"I mean, they came here for nothing. There was such a big movement and no one came out. There is only one possibility, that there is no one inside and there is no goods."
"It's impossible. The young master asked me to check. I checked and found that this warehouse has been rented for almost a year. It goes back and forth to store goods. It's impossible for no one to keep an eye on it." Li Neng didn't believe it.
Gong Ziyi sneered twice, "Either the warehouse has changed owners, or the opponent's chessboard is big and their chess routines are deep."
"Ah, the young master is saying that the owner of the warehouse started playing chess a year ago?" Li Neng opened his mouth wide. How many people would this fool?
Gong Ziyi stared closely at the movements of Huo Xi and others beside the warehouse, and said casually: "There are people coming and going at the dock, and the relationship is complicated. If I have been playing chess for a year and no one has reported it, it can only mean that there is something wrong with it."
The people have a deep background. This time they used to just hit the stone with an egg.”
Li Neng frowned: "Is it possible?" So powerful? You have been working as a condom at Huai'an Pier for a year? You haven't been picked up yet?
"Won't."
"Ah?" What does the young master mean? Li Neng turned to look at him.
"It's impossible to run a trap for a year without being discovered. The warehouse must have changed owners not long ago. It is specially set up to defraud individual tourists who are new to business and are not familiar with the world."
"Then aren't they pitiful?" They might as well dig a hole, a few holes, and move the ground.
The group of people in front of me might have emptied their wealth and came to Huai'an to make a fortune. Who would have thought that they might have to go back with nothing. Tsk tsk, miserable.
"Master, do we want to help them?"
"How to help? Can you help just by saying help?"
"No, haven't we seen those two gatekeepers? Coming out of the inn next door to us, maybe the owner behind them also lives there?"
Gong Ziyi's eyes flashed. He looked towards the warehouse and saw that the group of people had climbed into the warehouse using a human wall.
"Master, they are in!"
"If you turn it over, it will be in vain."
Sure enough, just after tea time, the people inside climbed over the wall and came out again.
"Xi'er, it's really empty inside."
"Damn it!" Qian Xiaoxia and others were furious and kicked the warehouse wall several times.
Huo Erhuai leaned against the wall and fell to the ground. He pulled his hair with both hands and murmured: "What can we do? What can we do? How can our family afford to compensate?"
Qian Sanduo, Yu Jiang and others were silent, not knowing how to comfort him.
Yang Fu was very angry and glanced at Huo Xi, "Xi'er, let's throw a fire in and burn this warehouse! I don't believe they won't come out!"
It is not possible to let the other party go so easily.
"Yes, burn it! Lure the snake out of its hole."
Qian Xiaoxia and others made noises.
"Burn the warehouse, and if the other party is fine, you may have to go to the Yamen jail and stay for a while."
Just as Huo Xi was about to speak, he was interrupted and turned to look.
"Who is it?" Everyone turned to look.
Huo Xi then saw a young man slowly walking towards them under the moonlight, with the light behind his back, but he couldn't see his appearance clearly.
Yang Fu rushed forward: "Are you the owner of the warehouse?"
"Yes, you are going to burn down my warehouse, can I still come out?" The young man said with a leisurely look.
"Okay, you are finally willing to come out, please pay us for the cloth!" Yang Fu rushed forward and suddenly grabbed the other party's shirt.
Gong Ziyi turned around and hid. He was a head taller than Yang Fu and glanced down at Yang Fu leisurely.
"You pay for our cloth!" Yang Fu wanted to pounce on him again.
"Uncle!" Huo Xi called him.
"Xi'er, ask him to pay for our cloth!"
"He is not the owner, he is just here to watch the fun."
"Oh? How did you know I was here to watch the fun?" Gong Ziyi looked at Huo Xi.
"Aren't you just here to watch the excitement? Why don't you come to give us money?" Huo Xi felt unhappy and had a bad tone.
Li Neng pulled Gong Ziyi from behind and said, "Master, please take it easy. Don't get so close to watch the fun, otherwise you may be accidentally injured."
Seeing the group of people staring at him with wary expressions on their faces, Gong Ziyi smiled and said, "You are making such a big fuss and no one comes out. It is obviously empty inside, otherwise there would be no one to guard it?"
Huo Xi gritted his teeth.
She also felt that turning it in just now was unnecessary, but if she didn't turn it in, she would not be able to overcome the hurdle in her heart.
Gong Ziyi looked at Huo Xi, who was much shorter than him with his head hanging down, and felt that if the blow continued, the kid in front of him would almost burst into tears.
He cleared his throat and said, "Are you here transporting grain from the canal?"
"What do you want to do?" Qian Xiaoxia and others stopped in front of Huo Xi and Yang Fu.
Tsk. Gong Ziyi tutted. If you have to be so vigilant, how can you be tricked?
"I'm curious. You brought grain all the way here, but you didn't allow them to get off the boat. The food, drink, and accommodation were all on the boat?"
"if not?"
Li Neng looked at Gong Ziyi in confusion, "Master, what do you want to do?"
Then I heard Gong Ziyi say: "I have never eaten, drank or lived on a ship. I am just curious to see people who are different from me."
Li Neng opened his mouth wide, Master, are you serious?
Our fleet followed you all the way to Huai'an. Everyone ate, lived and slept on the boat. Could it be possible, Master? Did you sleep in the sky or in the water?
Gong Ziyi glanced at him sideways and said to Huo Xi and others: "I stayed at an inn before and met the janitor of this warehouse."
Huo Xi's eyes lit up, "Where is it?"
Gong Ziyi clasped his hands behind his back and said nothing.
"What are your conditions?"
Gong Ziyi was a little surprised and looked down at her, "I can take you to find the two gatekeepers. But as I said just now, I'm curious and want to get on your boat to have a look."
"We are not a tanker, but a grain-carrying vessel temporarily recruited by fishermen."
"It doesn't matter, I just haven't been on a ship and want to see it."
Yang Fu patted his chest and said, "It's not difficult. As long as you take us to find those people, you can board my boat and stay there as long as you want."
"Then it's settled! Let's go, I'll take you to find him."
