Chapter 62

Mo Zi stood on the ship's lookout, looking up at the shape of the waves in the distance.

The windmill she made above her head can display the wind direction and estimate the wind speed. Don't think it is easy. Although she can design the best warship, that is only when all the software is already available. If she wants to design it part by part by herself

Made by hand, having the theory does not mean having everything. Just like the pencil she made, the windmill also suffered failure after failure, especially the function of calculating wind speed, which cost her so many brain cells.

Therefore, with the supreme theory of the engine in mind, Mo Zi knew that he would build one in the long run. Without the ninety-nine floors that have been built, the height of one hundred floors cannot appear out of thin air.

"The tide has begun to ebb, southeast wind, wind speed 2." She turned to Laoguan and shouted.

"Okay." Lao Guan began to direct the three brothers to loose sail and shouted "One mast."

Mo Zi looked down at their homework and thought, if this person doesn't come again, don't blame her for not waiting. Turning his eyes, six people and six horses suddenly came into view. The leader, with a white robe and brocade belt, had a smooth face.

Jade has star-like eyes, a high crown, and a majestic air. If it’s not the Erlang of that family, then which family is it?

She found that he was also looking at her, so she raised her eyebrows, curled her lips, smiled in a strange way, and muttered, "Tch, it's a good time."

The six people drove their horses over. Cen Er, who was about to collect the sampan, saw it and was shocked. He raised his head and asked Mo Zi, "Brother Mo, why are they here again? Are they coming for us?"

Mo Zi knew that she had toasted and ate it herself, but she couldn't admit it in front of Cen Er, so she could only say, "Maybe I got the news from elsewhere. Don't panic, I will handle it."

While he was talking, both men and horses had already arrived in front of the Yongfu.

Shi Lei muttered in a low voice, "Why is this guy here?"

Zhong An chuckled and said, "Okay, you are indeed with us." Glancing at the side, he saw that his expression remained unchanged, as if he had expected the person to be there, "It seems that you were right again."

Erlang said in a deep voice and told the two people, one on the left and one on the right, "Follow what we discussed before."

Once he gave his instructions seriously, Zhong An and Shi Lei also straightened their expressions and said yes.

"What a coincidence." Mo Zi grabbed the thick rope from the observation deck and slid down. He stepped on the wooden ladder in a few steps and reached the deck from the cabin roof. He tied his hands behind his back and greeted people with a smile. "It seems that some of them are looking for people."

The door is right."

"It's easy to talk." The "official spokesperson" is always Brother Zhong An, "Brother, I didn't expect to see you again. Please take care of me along the way."

Cen Er hurriedly said, "Who is in the same boat with you?"

Mo Zi still smiled, "He is right, who is on the same boat with you? We are going to Yunzhou in a different direction than you."

"Huh? No? Some people say that the Yongfu is going to where we are going. Brother, if you know the owner of the ship, please introduce him to us." Zhong An also smiled on the horse.

"This ship is going to Yunzhou, and you are going to..." Cen Er was afraid of the crowds at the pier, so he hid half of his sentence, "What are you introducing! You are mistaken, leave quickly, don't delay our sailing."

"What's wrong?" Lao Guan heard the excitement and came over.

"Is this old man the captain of the ship?" Erlang said.

"Well - if you want to say it, it is." The boat was bought in his name, but he didn't pay for it.

"We want to take a boat across the river, please make it convenient for the elderly." Erlang's eyes lightly swept over Mo Zi and looked at Laoguan.

"I just heard that some of them seem to be on a different path than us." The boat is so big, so if you speak louder, you can hear them clearly.

"No. We will go wherever the ship goes." Shi Lei was tall and strong, and his voice was as loud as ringing a bell.

Mo Zi's scalp went numb, and he secretly scolded him for being stupid. People go wherever the boat goes. Why don't you just say that you smuggled goods along with us? Isn't it weird for people to hear this?

"Where are you guys going?" Laoguan Chu was still shocked and stroked his gray beard, "My ship has arrived in Yunzhou, so are you?"

"Exactly." Zhong An simply said, "I see the old man's ship is very big, so I'll take a few more and we'll pay more for the ship."

"My boat is not the only one going to Yunzhou. How many of you are going to inquire elsewhere?" He couldn't take it with him anywhere. Lao Guan thought of a reason, "I let these two charter this boat and won't carry other passengers. I'm really embarrassed.

.”

Zhong An secretly laughed inwardly. Sure enough, it was as his colleague said, and the decision-making power went back to Brother Mo.

"This little brother, this is not the first time we have met, why should we be so unreasonable? When traveling on the river, wouldn't it be more lively if there are more people?" He began to negotiate with Mo Zi.

"Although what you say makes sense, sir, I am also acting under the orders of my master. It is really not easy for me to make my own decisions." Mo Zi narrowed his eyes and raised his hands vigorously.

"You will be away, and your life will be compromised. The cost of chartering the ship is quite high. We are willing to bear half of it, so you can spend half less. We don't care what you do with the extra money." Zhong An used their expertise -

- To induce profit.

"Who cares about that little money?" Cen Er snorted.

"You kid!" Shi Lei roared in a low voice at this time, "You don't care about money or your life?"

"You...what do you mean?" Cen Er saw that the other party suddenly lowered his voice, and he felt weak.

"You know what I mean. I'm telling you, if you don't let me get on the ship, I'll make a lot of noise here about what you did. If you attract officers and soldiers, don't blame me for being unreasonable." Shi Lei shouted in an angry tone.

, with a face full of evil shapes.

"You!" Cen Er felt bad, as all the private goods were on board. So, he leaned into Mo Zi's ear and said, "Brother Mo, what should I do?"

"It seems that we can only take them with us." Mo Zi was happy to go with the flow, "If they really go to extreme lengths and let the officers and soldiers come to inspect the ship, we will be doomed."

"But how do we explain it to my boss? This is our last business trip. It would be very serious if the secret is leaked." Cen Er was either left or right.

"Let them board the ship first and discuss it in the cabin. If they stand here for a long time, they will become suspicious." Mo Zi suggested.

Can Cen Er disagree? Although it seems that it is easier to treat guests than to send them off, it is better than causing official trouble.

"You three come on board first, we can discuss everything." Mo Zi made a gesture of invitation.

The three and two people entered the cabin and saw that the cabin was pitch black. It was spacious but shabby and old. Apart from a lame low table, there was no other furniture.

"There's not even a chair." Shi Lei looked down on it, "Will it leak?"

"If we put a chair, where will people lie down to sleep?" Cen Er snorted. "Don't worry, it looks shabby, and it will definitely not leak from wind or rain. Besides, you want to go home and enjoy your happiness."

"You're right, little brother." Zhong An smiled and said to Shi Lei, "The stone, just because it doesn't leak wind or rain, is better than your canopy."

"Since you have a boat, why don't you take ours?" Cen Er heard him talking about the canopy and thought it was a boat canopy.

"Little brother, I'm talking about the shed where he usually lives." Zhong An explained.

Seeing that they didn't look like poor people, Cen Er thought they were teasing him. He snorted coldly and turned away, refusing to pay attention to them.
