Chapter 604 Assassination

Wang Lin had spent some time in Sanya and naturally knew what a rare opportunity it was for a prominent Haihan executive committee member to recommend him to study abroad. He quickly bowed deeply and expressed his gratitude to Ning Qi.

This is not just because of the opportunity to study abroad in Sanya again. Under the command of Fujian Xu Xinsu, all young people who have studied abroad in Haihan have basically received varying degrees of importance after returning from their studies. Like Wang Lin himself in

Before going to Sanya to study, I just helped my father, who was a steward in the Xu Mansion, write account books and copy documents. But after I came back from studying business and finance in Sanya for a year, I was immediately promoted to work with Haihan and Xu Xinsu locally.

The senior manager of the company "Fujian Haixing" is responsible for checking and settling trade accounts with Haihan Fang.

This is not because Wang Lin's professional ability in this area is really strong, but mainly because there are some differences between Haihan style accounting and Daming's practice. When the two parties check the accounts, they often have differences due to different calculation methods.

.But Wang Lin, who has received training from Haihan, can just make up for this shortcoming, so that both parties can truly achieve "seamless connection" in this link. Later, Haihan Bank opened an office in Zhangzhou to simplify the transaction settlement process between the two parties.

Wang Lin was appointed as the supervisory representative of Xu Xinsu's party, and he was also the youngest among the five representatives of the Zhangzhou Chamber of Commerce.

Although he was reused, Wang Lin knew very well that what he learned from Sanya was actually very limited. In the words of the lecturer, this knowledge was just "the most superficial introductory knowledge." If he wants to continue to climb up,

He knew that he still had a lot to learn, and most importantly, he knew that his interest was not in business and finance, but in those strange machines he saw in Sanya. But if he wanted to learn these things, the world

There is no other one besides Sanya, and when he was in Sanya, he asked someone about it, and the answer he received was that the relevant majors did not recruit students from outside, and even apprentices were recruited within the naturalized people, so he had no choice but to

gave up on this dream.

But now with Ning Qi's endorsement, this problem can be easily solved. As long as Ning Qi helps to say hello to both sides, then this matter will indeed not be too difficult.

The two of them were chatting and shopping, and while they were talking, they came to a relatively prosperous street in the city. Zhangzhou has been a port for nearly a thousand years, and the city's prosperity is comparable to that of Guangzhou. There are rows of shops selling all kinds of goods, and the streets are lined with shops.

You can hear various accents from different regions in the north and south, and from time to time you can even see Persians and blond-haired Westerners wearing white robes.

Although Sanya is now a prosperous port city, the market is not as lively as Zhangzhou City. Ning Qi rarely has the opportunity to travel after traveling, but this time he experienced the authentic flavor of this era up close.

Large port city.

Ning Qi noticed that many of the shops here sell various daily necessities produced in Sanya. Of course, these goods are transported from the sea, and the freight cost is quite high. Therefore, the local prices are not easily accessible to ordinary people.

Consumption. Even for fast-moving consumer goods such as matches, the price is twice as high as in Guangzhou. Although merchants' profits are still considerable, the high prices will also affect their sales volume to a certain extent.

However, this is not without a solution, as long as the quantity of goods placed in the Zhangzhou market is increased. Of course, there is also a prerequisite for this, that is, the maritime transport capacity between Fujian and Sanya must be increased, and this is precisely

Ning Qi came here to negotiate an important issue regarding business cooperation between the two parties.

Due to the long voyage between Fujian and Sanya, the trade volume between the two sides has been tepid in the past few years. However, with the expansion of the area controlled by Haihan on Qiongzhou Island and the increase in the population under his rule, various

The output of export commodities is also growing steadily. The demand for market and raw materials makes the executive committee no longer satisfied with the status quo. Increasing the trade volume between Fujian and Qiong has become one of the key development directions for the fifth year.

This is mainly achieved through maritime trade.

The Haihan Ministry of Commerce and Fujian Xu Xinsu established the cooperative firm "Fujian Haixing" two years ago. However, the function of this firm is still relatively simple. It is only responsible for trade contacts and settlements between the two parties. The executive committee now hopes to "

The functions of the "Fujian Sea Tour" are gradually improving, especially the maritime transportation industry between the two places. The Executive Committee has instructed the Ministry of Shipping to build a dedicated cargo fleet for the "Fujian Sea Tour" to maintain commerce between the two places.

contacts.

Regarding this matter, Ning Qi has briefly mentioned it to Xu Xinsu in previous contacts. This is something that is beneficial to both parties. Xu Xinsu naturally has no reason to object, but there are some detailed issues, such as shipbuilding.

Costs, freight calculations, shipping schedules, route formulation, etc. need to be further discussed at a special venue.

After walking around for a few streets, Ning Qi felt a little tired, so he asked Wang Lin to find a place to stop and rest.

Wang Lin said: "There is a teahouse at the intersection ahead. The various refreshments are quite good. Mr. Ning, would you like to take a rest there?"

Ning Qi nodded and asked Wang Lin to lead the way. Wang Lin was very careful in his work. After entering the teahouse, he asked the waiter to find the boss, asked the plainclothes officer accompanying him to show his waistband, and then directly occupied the second floor.

When we came down, a group of plainclothes soldiers stood guard downstairs, preventing anyone else from going upstairs.

Ning Qi also knew that this was one of the security measures arranged by Xu Xinsu, so he didn't have any objections. Travelers chose to come to this time and space to be a privileged class. Although it was a bit exaggerated to have a cup of tea and clear the place, it was not considered exaggerated.

What a big deal.

Ning Qi felt a little hungry after walking for a long time, so he asked the store to serve a few bowls of braised noodles that were said to be more distinctive in the store, and asked Wang Lin and his four guards to sit down and eat together. After the final check, the boss

Wang Lin stammered and didn't dare to collect the money. He probably had seen this kind of situation too many times, so he threw five taels of silver on the table, which was as much as there was.

The boss gratefully accepted the money and left. Ning Qi asked with a smile: "It seems that as long as you show Master Xu's sign, you can eat and drink for free in Zhangzhou City, right?"

Wang Lin said: "Mr. Ning is joking, Mr. Xu is actually quite strict with his subordinates. If a person like Xiaoren, who is a domestic servant, dares to use Mr. Xu's name to cheat food and drink outside, he will definitely be punished.

Expelled from the Xu Mansion. Mr. Xu often said that those who are greedy for petty gains will never achieve great things, and villains should keep this in mind and always reflect on themselves."

"Master Xu is quite right in what he said." Ning Qi couldn't help but nodded in approval. As a businessman who spends every penny, it is really not easy for Xu Xinsu to have such a mentality. It's no wonder that he can go from being a businessman to a province.

If the position of commander-in-chief were replaced by a person with a bad mentality, it would be difficult to take care of these details of life after becoming rich.

The two went downstairs while chatting. Wang Lin made a gesture, and several plainclothes guards led the way out of the store. As soon as they arrived and stepped out of the store, they heard someone shouting on the street, and then they saw

Seven or eight passers-by from different directions pulled out sharp blades more than a foot long from their clothes and rushed towards him.

This was the first time for Ning Qi to encounter such a scene. Although he had sensed the dangerous atmosphere and realized that these people might be coming towards him, his body was unable to react. On the other hand, Wang Lin next to him immediately

Shouted: "Protect the noble man!"

The guards of the Xu Mansion were all dressed in plain clothes and did not carry any handy weapons. They were swarmed by seven or eight people. After the two guards at the head kicked them over, they were stabbed by the assassins who came up from behind.

The others protected Ning Qi and Wang Lin and chose to retreat into the store. Ning Qi didn't come to his senses for a moment, but two guards grabbed his arms and dragged him backwards into the store.

The guards of Xu Mansion, who acted quickly, had already taken a few benches from the store and rushed out again. Wang Lin's face turned pale at this time and he kept mumbling: "It's the other way around... It's really the other way around... In broad daylight, it's the other way around.

How dare you stab someone in the street..."

Ning Qi calmed down at this time, waved his hand and said: "Don't panic, just a few people can't make a difference."

However, Ning Qi raised the flag a little early. As soon as he finished speaking, several customers sitting in the store also drew their sharp blades and rushed towards them. However, these people obviously did not expect that Ning Qi's personal bodyguard also had a murder weapon.

In hand, several of the guards who had already pressed their hands on their guns pulled out their pistols and fired a series of "bang bang bang" blasts at the people who rushed over. Suddenly, the smell of gunpowder smoke and blood mixed with each other in the store.

group.

It wasn't until the gunshots stopped that Ning Qi remembered that he also had a gun on him. He quickly pulled out the gun from the holster under his arm and turned on the safety. However, at this time, no assassins came out to fight anymore, and people fell everywhere in the store.

Several people got off the platform and kept making moaning sounds.

"It's okay, it's okay, it's safe!" Ning Qi's hand holding the gun couldn't help but tremble slightly. He originally thought he could keep his composure when facing dangerous situations, but now it seems that it is still too high.

He estimated his own adaptability. If he hadn't been resisted by these guards just now, he might have been stabbed with seven or eight holes in his body by the assassins who suddenly appeared.

"Hurry up and ask people to block the nearby streets. Maybe these people have accomplices lurking nearby..." Ning Qi said as he looked around for Wang Lin, but saw him sitting down on the ground with his hands on his waist and his face was pale, and he couldn't even speak.

Not coming out.

Ning Qi smiled and said: "I saw you were a little calm just now, why are you so scared now?"

Wang Lin tremblingly stretched out the hand that was supporting his waist, and it was actually covered with blood: "Mr. Ning, the villain... is injured..."

Ning Qi was shocked and thought that these assassins did not rush in front of Wang Lin, so how could they hurt him? He quickly squatted down and took a look, and saw a small flying knife with a red ribbon tied at the end stuck in Wang Lin's ribs.

The area around the wound was already bleeding profusely.

Ning Qi didn't care about anything else and shouted quickly: "Here comes someone! Find a board quickly and carry Wang Lin back to Mr. Xu's house for treatment! Find someone with fast legs to report back and let Morgan prepare for surgery!"

There was no board available in this tea house, so he immediately requisitioned the door panel and lifted Wang Lin up to level it. Ning Qi could not help but comfort him: "Don't panic, we have a way to save you! We will send you back now, we will

The mission has the best surgeon!”

Wang Lin's voice was much softer at this time: "Mr. Ning, don't leave in a hurry... There may be assassins outside... The guards will arrive here shortly..."

"Send him away quickly!" Ning Qi didn't want the wounded to stay here any longer, so he immediately issued a transfer order. Seeing the plainclothes guards looking at each other, Ning Qi urged again: "Send out four of you and carry him out quickly.

Go back to Mr. Xu's house. If you delay any longer, it will be too late to treat him! I'll be waiting for reinforcements here, don't worry, I still have them!" After saying that, he pointed to his four personal guards.

The four guards said nothing from beginning to end. After confirming that the situation in the store was under control, they were reloading their bullets and then checking the status of the defeated assassins in the store.

The incident just happened suddenly. In desperation, several of the guards fired all the bullets in their guns in one breath, with a few misfires in between. However, they were quite lucky. The three assassins who suddenly appeared were all shot.

He fell to the ground. But there were also some unlucky people. Two innocent passers-by were hit by stray bullets in the shooting just now. One of them was hit in the head and died on the spot.

When Ning Qi followed them to review the results of the battle, he suddenly discovered that there were two flying knives nailed to the table next to where he was just now. It seemed that some of the assassins just now were unprepared.

He took advantage of the chaos and launched a long-range attack, but his accuracy and luck were a bit off. The flying knife hit the table and Wang Lin, the unlucky guy. Judging from the position of the flying knife, Wang Lin probably happened to be in the way of the flying knife at that time.

He and Ning Qi accidentally became a human shield.

"What a risk!" After confirming the scene, Ning Qi had to sigh again about how lucky he was. If Xu Xinsu hadn't arranged for plainclothes guards, if he hadn't brought four personal guards, and if Wang Lin had been standing in a slightly off-center position just now, he wouldn't have been able to do it.

Everything has to go wrong. And the hyperspace weapons brought from the 21st century actually did not play a protective role in this chaotic situation - of course this also has a great relationship with Ningqi's own reaction speed and method.

, if the people who had just encountered this incident were Morgan or Steven Shi, people at the scene would probably have had the opportunity to enjoy a professional CQS (Close Quarter Shoot) battle.

It has to be said that the government's response was quite fast. The injured Wang Lin was just carried away by the front foot. The government's police officers and the military's city defense force had already rushed to the scene of the accident. I heard that the person who was assassinated had just arrived yesterday.

Zhangzhou's Haihan special envoy, the head catcher and the military officer led by the team almost crawled into the store to plead guilty to Ning Qi.
