Chapter 119 Whose mask is hidden deeper?

  Cheng Ling bought the boat and spent most of the remaining silver rewarded by the original county governor, plus 12 taels of gold.

  That's it, what she bought was not a great ship, but an old ship that had been in service in the waters of Kamigawa for ten years.

   Of course, it is not small.

  The captain is fifteen feet long and thirty feet wide, and the cabins on the deck also have three floors.

  The sides of the hull are covered with oars. If the role of the sails is not considered, and if it is only driven by human power, at least 50 boatmen will be required to drive this building!

The old hall master of the Jinshui Gang was quite good at it. He rubbed his hands together and said, "The boss has strict control. Commercial boats generally only have two floors, and three-story boats like ours are all reported to be damaged. Ships are hard to come by..."

   Then, he looked at Cheng Ling with a "you understand" look.

  Cheng Ling understood, in fact, the management of Chixia City is not strict, from top to bottom, there are many loopholes.

   But she did find the right person. Although the old ship she bought has been in service for ten years, it is not unusual for this scale.

  Cheng Ling smiled at the Hallmaster Lu and said, "As expected, there is no wrong temple to worship, Hallmaster Lu has been bothered."

Hall Master Lu smiled and said: "It's easy to say, Hall Master Cheng is a hero. In our Chixia City, no matter where you go out, it's a well-known sign. My old Lu, that is to catch up, haha. !"

  Cheng Ling bowed his hands to him and said, "Old senior loves you, don't dare to be."

   Hall Master Lu laughed again, the two of them were in harmony, and when the atmosphere was just right, Hall Master Lu finally asked the question that had been brewing for a long time.

"Master Cheng is going to set up a water caravan? The route is set? The pier is also ready? Where are you going? Would you like to tell me this old man? Nian Shuilu, I can't say I can give some stupid opinions."

  Lu Hall's tone is kind and his state is casual. But his turbid old eyes seemed to have no intention of staring at Cheng Ling intentionally.

  Cheng Lingbian also said casually: "The team on the water, after all, has to cross the Shenchuan and go to the capital. The seniors laughed."

   "Oh." Hall Master Lu narrowed his eyes and asked with a smile, "Aren't you going to the east? Going directly to the capital, this route is not outstanding enough."

  Cheng Ling also smiled and said: "After all, it is the first time to dabble in water, so be cautious. You don't have to be too ambitious, this water... must also be waded little by little, the old senior said, but this is the truth?"

   Hall Master Lu suddenly laughed and said: "It's very, very, very unexpected. I can't think that Master Cheng's way of life seems to be incompetent, but in fact he can retract and release, high realm! This old man admires it!"

  Like an old man who is very concerned about his younger generation, Yin Yin urged: "Since the Master Cheng is going to take the capital route, the Tianying Gang can't ignore it. Before sailing, it is best to walk around."

   After exhorting, he said: "It's also an old man who talks too much, does Master Cheng not mind?"

  Cheng Ling said: "Thank you old senior."

   Hall Master Lu laughed again.

Cheng Ling finished dealing with Hall Master Lu and left Lu Mansion, and Zhou Huai who was beside her couldn't help complaining: "Master, talking to this Hall Master Lu is really tiring, your patience is so good, you can still talk to him. He's been around for so long."

   Zhou Huai is the most slippery and jumpy among all the disciples in the martial arts hall. He said that he couldn't stand it, which shows how annoying this Hall Master Lu is.

  Cheng Ling said: "Zhou Huai, my temper is not better than yours, so do you know why I wasn't angry just now?"

   Zhou Huai was stunned for a moment, and quickly asked, "Why isn't the master angry?"

  Unexpectedly, Cheng Ling smiled and replied, "You can guess slowly."

   Zhou Huai:…

  After Cheng Ling left the Lu Mansion, Hall Master Lu waited for a person behind the living room screen.

  I saw this man dressed in brocade and splendid, with a jade crown and hair, and a green jade pen in his hand. He looked like he was in his early twenties, and he looked very suave.

When Hall Master Lu saw this person, he immediately bowed his body, greeted him with a smile on his face, and said, "Young gang master, I have asked, it turns out that this Jade Shura also wants to take the capital route!"

   The young man who was turning the jade pen glanced sideways, snorted lightly, and then said, "Lord Lu thinks that he is telling the truth?"

   Hall Master Lu suddenly said in surprise, "Could it be that there is a fake?"

   The young gang leader sighed and shook his head: "Old Lu, look at you, your brain is not flexible enough after all. Otherwise, why would you stay in a daze for decades and just be a small hall owner in the Jinshui Gang?"

   said, the tip of his jade pen lightly tapped on Hall Master Lu's shoulder.

   Hall Master Lu maintained a bowed posture and froze there, not daring to move.

   The jade pen of the young gang leader is also of jade quality, even with the nib. Obviously, this is not a writing brush for writing, but a strange weapon in the shape of a writing brush.

The head of Lu Tang smiled and said: "Yes, this is not a small aptitude. Fortunately, I met the young gang leader, the young gang leader took pity, and the young joined the Tianying gang. I dare not say anything else, just a little bit! Where, where is the little one…”

The young gang master laughed, tapped Hall Master Lu on the shoulder again, and said, "Forget it, you don't need to explore this Cheng Ling's boating route too much. If you really want to kill him, watch him when you call the sailors. When you get to the water, you can still Let him?"

   After he finished speaking, he put away the pen and walked away.

   Hall Master Lu was right behind him, straightening his waist little by little.

   In the evening, Cheng Ling went to the south bank of Shenchuan, Chidong Pier.

  There are many ports in the north of the city, but when it comes to the most prosperous, it is the Yueerwan Wharf located in the middle of Chixia City. The Chidong Wharf is remote and relatively deserted.

  Cheng Ling's boat is parked here, and Hong Feng is currently guarding here with a dozen brothers.

   Seeing Cheng Ling coming over, Hong Feng immediately brought people up to meet him. His expression was full of excitement, and his whole person was overwhelmed with excitement.

  Have been a tracker and an anti-pack coolie for half my life, how could I ever imagine that I would be able to sit on a boat and become a sailor in this life?

   Although you can make money by joining the green jacket delivery team, you can deliver food delivery and be a sailor, which gives people a completely different feeling.

  Hong Feng doesn’t know how to describe it. If he could describe it, he would definitely say: Delivering food is the fuel of life, but going with the boat is a dream and a distant place!

  Hong Feng seemed to be in a dream, and asked Cheng Ling again with certainty: "The owner of the museum, we...will really let us be sailors in the future. Will this boat be handed over to us to row?"

  Cheng Ling said: "What? Can't you do it?"

  Hong Feng immediately raised his chest and raised his voice: "It can be done! There is nothing that can't be done! We and our brothers have been rolling in the water since childhood, no one can't row a boat, no one can't swim!"

  Cheng Ling smiled and said again: "You can be sailors, but the helmsman needs to be found elsewhere. Hong Feng, do you have a suitable person to recommend? In addition, there is one very important thing."

  Hong Feng felt Cheng Ling's seriousness and immediately looked at Cheng Ling seriously.

  Cheng Lingdao: "This ship must be overhauled. Hong Feng, in Chixia City, where is the best craftsman?"

   The best craftsman?

  Hong Feng blurted out: "Master Bian washed his hands in a golden pot ten years ago! Now Master Yao is in the shipping department of the county governor."
