Just as Zhang Jingxu said, the four of them didn't catch a single fish in the next two hours.
After making sure that there were no ears or eyes around, Yin En said with a wry smile: "So Kitano Masaichi has discovered that we have reached a cooperation with Shimazu Hiromichi, or does he simply want to beat us?"
"I think it should be the latter, because if Kitano Masaichi had discovered that we had reached a cooperation with Shimadzu Hiromichi, then he would not have played such a trick, because with his current strength, he wanted to solve us and Shimadzu.
"Hongdao, isn't that easy?" Ding Kun shook his head and said, "So I think Kitano Masaichi simply wants to give us a slap in the face and make us be more honest and not have any strange ideas."
"But if it's like what you said, Brother Ding, Kitano Masaichi doesn't need to beat us like this. Anyway, we are already a turtle in the urn to him, so... Kitano Masaichi may not be as bad as we imagined.
So powerful." Zhang Jingxu's eyes lit up and he said.
Yin En couldn't help but glance at Kitano Masaichi and found that Kitano Masaichi was still chatting and laughing with Shimazu Hiromichi.
"In this case, Kitano Masaichi's entire wealth should be on this ship, and there are no deep divers like Kitano Masaichi mentioned on the land now." Zhang Wenbing looked towards the land and said.
Ding Kun on the side thought for a while and said: "Isn't the Kitano family now divided into two? And judging from the current situation, the Kitano family should focus most of their energy on Hokkaido, so the Kitano family in the island country
It should be regarded as a branch, so the Kitano family of the island nation as a branch should elect a new head of the family, and Kitano Masaichi should have ideas about the position of the head of the family, so he is likely to compete for the Kitano family of the island nation.
As the head of the family, he led his subordinates to southern Kyushu alone, hoping to use the achievements of the puppet Shimazu family as a bargaining chip for his rise to power."
"This is indeed a possibility, and it also explains why Kitano Masaichi has not taken action for a long time. It seems that he is not sure that he can use this ship of men to capture the Shimadzu Mansion, so he must wait for a suitable opportunity.
But if this is the case, I don’t know how long it will take for the right time to arrive.”
At this moment, a cell phone ring suddenly rang on the deck.
Zhang Jingxu and others followed the sound and found that Shimazu Hiromichi's cell phone rang.
After making this call, Zhang Jingxu and others saw Shimazu Hiromichi with a solemn face.
It seems that this phone call does not bring good news.
After Shimazu Hiromichi said a few words to Kitano Masaichi, he walked towards Zhang Jingxu and others.
"The situation is not good now. People from the Ii family have come to Kagoshima City."
Shimazu Hiromichi went straight to the topic and said, "I don't know what my uncle and the others thought, but they allowed people from the Ii family to enter Kagoshima City to search for the whereabouts of Naoraku Ii. Don't they know that the Ii family is a member of the public faction?
Moreover, the Ii family and our Shimazu family have a feud."
Then Shimazu Hiromichi told Zhang Jingxu and others the relevant information about the drugs and equipment.
"I see, but I think the reason why Mr. Shimazu agreed to the Ii family's entry into Kagoshima City was out of necessity. After all, the Ii family has a reputation as a master, and Ii Naoraku is now the common enemy of the public and samurai factions.
So from various perspectives, Mr. Shimadzu has no way to refuse the Ii family's request, and the Ii family should have mentioned that all their actions in Kagoshima City will be monitored by your Shimazu family, right?" Zhang Wenbing said.
asked.
Shimazu Hiromichi nodded and said helplessly: "Yes, the members of the Ii family arrived in Osaka first, and then underwent a comprehensive inspection at a community next to the Osaka Airport, and then were led by the responsible persons from each place.
We went to various areas to track down Ii Naoraku, so it is reasonable for the Ii family to do this, so that we can't find any fault; however, our Shimazu family is in a special situation now."
"The members of the Ii family all came by plane this time, so Shimazu Takeshi would definitely be able to know their arrival as soon as possible and guess their purpose of coming. After all, the Ii Naoraku incident has caused a lot of uproar in the city.
Everyone knows it, so I'm worried that Shimazu Takeshi will do some tricks at this time, such as monitoring those members of the Ii family on behalf of our Shimazu family. If this is the case, then we will suffer a dumb loss.
Because Takeshi Shimazu is trying to enhance his sense of existence."
"This is indeed not good news, because Shimazu Takeshi can take this opportunity to announce that he has become the heir to the Shimadzu family. Unless you break up with him and admit that Shimazu Takeshi has controlled Kagoshima City.
, otherwise you will suffer this hidden loss; but this hidden loss is not so easy to swallow, because Takeshi Shimazu will definitely push it further and start to instill in public that he is Shimazu in front of ordinary people and employees of family companies.
The next head of the Jin family will have an invisible protective shield when the time comes." Zhang Jingxu said with a frown.
Shimazu Hiromichi said helplessly: "This is coercing public opinion. If we allow Shimazu Takeshi to instill the message that he is the next head of the Shimadzu family to ordinary people, then the only way we can liquidate him in the future is through
There is no assassination method, and there is only one chance, because if the assassination fails, Shimazu Takeshi will use this assassination to make a fuss..."
"So Brother Hongdao, are you going to meet the members of the Ii family one step ahead of Takeshi Shimazu?" Yin En said suddenly, "Isn't this a bit too risky?"
Shimazu Hiromichi looked at Yin En in surprise, nodded and said, "How did you guess that I had such a plan?"
Yin En sighed, spread his hands and said: "Judging from the current situation, if you want to stop Shimazu Takeshi's next plan, then this is the only thing you can do - become a member of the Shimazu family one step ahead of time
monitor, and this should be the reason why Mr. Shimazu called you just now, right? He hopes you can come forward at this time."
Shimazu Hiromichi also sighed and said seriously: "Yes, my uncle just called me just for this reason, because if he wants to prevent Shimazu Takeshi from standing up to increase his presence, then I have to stand up.
In other words, I am the only one who can stand up now... But this also means that I will expose my position. When the time comes, Shimazu Takeshi will definitely send people to keep an eye on me. Even if he wants to take a gamble,
If so, then it is not impossible to send someone to kill me."
Hearing what Shimazu Hiromichi said, Zhang Jingxu and others couldn't help but fall into silence.
Because this is indeed a dilemma.
If Hiromichi Shimazu does not choose to come forward, then Takeshi Shimazu will step forward to increase his presence, making the major families mistakenly think that he has officially become the next heir to the head of the Shimadzu family; but if Hiromichi Shimazu comes forward, then
Even if Takeko Shimazu has his sights on Hiromichi Shimazu, it will not be easy for Hiromichi Shimazu to disappear from Takeshi Shimazu's eyes, because the current Kagoshima City has become Shimadzu.
Wu's territory.
Therefore, Hiromichi Shimazu's life will either be in danger, or he will be openly targeted to death by Takeshi Shimazu. In short, it will be difficult for Hiromichi Shimazu to do anything anymore.
That's why Shimazu Hiromichi seemed so confused at this time, because he didn't know what choice he should make. After all, neither choice seemed to be good for him.
One may cause him to completely withdraw from the fight for the position of head of the Shimadzu family, while the other may cause him to die inexplicably...
And Zhang Jingxu and others didn't know what to say, because this was a proposition, so Zhang Jingxu and others felt that it was better not to participate in this decision, so as not to take the blame later.
Of course, Zhang Jingxu and others reached a consensus after some eye contact, that is, Hiromichi Shimazu had better go to the members of the Ii family before Takeshi Shimazu, but Hiromichi Shimazu must not take him and his party with him.
People go to die.
Therefore, Zhang Jingxu and others have already made plans, that is, if Shimazu Hiromichi really wants to go, then he and his party must firmly state that they must stick to the rear and "protect" his safety in secret.
Just kidding, who would follow him to die?
However, Shimazu Hiromichi should have thought of this, so after pondering for a moment, he shook his head and left.
It seems that Shimazu Hiromichi still doesn’t know what to choose.
Yin En shook his head and said: "It seems that Shimazu Hiromichi has a headache for a while today, because he can't be described as being in a dilemma now."
"Yes, now Shimazu Hiromichi has fallen into a dead situation. His position as the head of the family is basically unsafe, so I am quite curious about what choice Shimazu Hiromichi will make. Is he going to let Shimazu go?
Tsutake becomes the new head of the Shimazu family, and then becomes a rich man with nothing to do, or does he choose to drag Shimazu into the water so that no one wants to be the head of the Shimazu family?" Zhang Wenbing touched his chin.
Said: "I think it should be the former. After all, Shimazu Hiromichi is not the kind of person who is not afraid of death."
"Unless Shimazu Takeshi forced Shimazu Hiromichi into a desperate situation, it is impossible for Shimazu Hiromichi to choose to die together with Shimazu Takeshi. After all, it is better to die than to live, and it is still a good life." Ding Kun said with a smile, "I
If it were Shimazu Hiromichi, he would now choose to find an opportunity to chat with Shimazu Takeshi, telling him that he is willing to help him become the next patriarch of the Shimazu family, and only asks Shimazu Takeshi to let him leave the island country.
Taking charge of the Shimadzu Group's business in other countries is equivalent to dividing the family property, and I believe Shimadzu Takeshi will agree."
"But does Kitano Masaichi agree with Shimazu Hiromichi doing this?"
Yin En's words seemed to hit the point, and everyone shook their heads in unison.
"As I said before, it's easier to invite gods than to send them away. Now Hiromichi Shimazu has no way to refuse Kitano Masaichi's 'suggestion', so we still have to see what Kitano Masaichi chooses." Zhang Jingxu pulled up the fishing line and said.
, "I think Kitano Masaichi will most likely send Shimazu Hiromichi to Kagoshima City, because once Shimazu Hiromichi's whereabouts are exposed, then Shimazu Hiromichi will inevitably seek the protection of Kitano Masaichi, and then Kitano Masaichi will
We can take this opportunity to extort another favor from Hiromichi Shimazu."
"The most important thing is that Kitano Masaichi can also use Shimazu Hiromichi as bait, forcing Shimazu Takeshi to arrange his right-hand men to attack Shimazu Hiromichi. In this way, the defense of Shimazu Mansion will become somewhat empty. Kitano Masaichi
You can take this opportunity to lead your men to attack the Shimazu Mansion, and then while Shimazu Hiromichi is still in Kagoshima City, you can get another benefit from the Shimazu Mansion. Anyway, the blame can be placed on Shimazu Takeshi.
On the head, Shimazu Hiromichi can only suffer the loss of being dumb."
Zhang Jingxu paused and continued: "Now Shimazu Hiromichi is really done. He has no chance to break the game."
Yin and En nodded, indicating that they agreed with Zhang Jingxu's statement.
"So we have to find a way to escape now, otherwise we will be buried with Shimazu Hiromichi." Yin En stretched and said: "So why don't we go to Kagoshima City with Shimazu Hiromichi, and then find a chance to escape?
Where is the road?"
As soon as Yin En finished speaking, he heard Shimazu Hiromichi arguing with Kitano Masaichi again.
However, Shimazu Hiromichi still remembered that he was living under someone else's roof, so even if he was a little angry, he did not dare to yell in front of Kitano Masaichi. Therefore, even if Zhang Jingxu and others pricked up their ears, they could not hear Shimadzu Hiromichi clearly.
What are you arguing with Kitano Masaichi?
Of course, Zhang Jingxu and others knew very well what Shimazu Hiromichi was arguing with Kitano Masaichi.
Unexpectedly, Kitano Masaichi spoke so quickly.
After a while, Zhang Jingxu and others saw Shimazu Hiromichi slumped on a chair with a decadent look on his face, staring at the sky in a daze.
It seems that Hiromichi Shimazu was "persuaded" by Kitano Masaichi.
At this time, Kitano Masaichi, who was smiling, waved towards Zhang Jingxu and others, and called Zhang Jingxu and others to come over.
After Zhang Jingxu and others came over, Kitano Masaichi said with a smile: "I just had a good chat with Brother Hiromichi and decided that you and several of my deep divers will escort Brother Hiromichi to Kagoshima City.
Those who monitored the Ii family were actually looking for opportunities to assassinate Takeshi Shimazu."
Sure enough.
Zhang Jingxu and others knew that the deal was done, so they directly nodded and agreed to Kitano Masaichi's plan.
Looking at Zhang Jingxu and others on the road, the smile on Kitano Masaichi's face became even brighter.
As a result, Zhang Jingxu and others finally landed on land again the next day.
Yin En stamped his feet and said with a smile: "Sure enough, the feeling of being down to earth is reassuring."
