The captain took the flag from Yu Ren and looked at it. He saw that it was a pennant about half a foot long, with a golden phoenix embroidered on it, and then gold borders embroidered on the four sides. The captain looked at the flag and did not recognize it.

, and threw it in front of Yu Ren.

"I thought it was the Li character flag or the Chinese character flag that we often buy when we go to sea! You don't have any characters on it, just a phoenix embroidered on it, what's the use of it? Do you think the beauty of Qizixiang will be useful? It's better to hurry up

It is a serious matter to get him off the ship. Otherwise, it will delay the departure of the ship, which will be bad for everyone."

Yu Ren didn't expect that the flag that had scared the fierce pirate leader into silence would not be worth their three taels of silver in the end. He sighed and gently picked up the small flag on the deck. At this time,

Yu Ren finally felt what it meant: a hero's end.

Just when Yu Ren was at his wits' end, a man in his fifties walked out of the crowd. This man was a little fatter and wore brocade. He could tell he was a rich man at first glance. This man came to Yu Ren and gave him a gentle kiss.

Hand over.

"This little husband has invited me. I wonder if you can lend me the flag in your hand for a look?"

Seeing that this man looked kind, Yu Ren handed over the small flag.

The man looked at the flag face, and suddenly his expression changed drastically, but he quickly regained his composure. Yu Renbi was not a newbie, so he naturally knew some skills in observing faces. Seeing that this man saw the flag face

When se changed drastically, he knew it was done.

Sure enough, after seeing the flag, the man held it in both hands and carefully returned it to Yu Ren's hands, then turned around and said to the captain.

"The voyage fare of this young husband and his two friends, as well as all the expenses on the ship, will be charged to me. You will send someone to my cabin to get the money soon! Don't embarrass them any more."

The boat owner didn't expect that anyone would pay for the boat for these three strangers. However, these people were still his big customers, so he couldn't offend him. So he hurriedly said, "Since Jiang Yuanwai has spoken, it's not a problem.

.I will ask someone to arrange to sail the ship."

Jiang Yuanwai nodded and left alone without greeting anyone.

Yu Ren suddenly got help from Jiang, who solved his urgent need. Naturally, he had a good impression of him. But he also knew that Jiang was definitely not helping him for no reason. It must be because

He understood the power behind this small flag.

Yu Ren decided to visit this member of the Communist Party of China, because he also wanted to know the origin of this small flag. He wanted to use the origin of this small flag to explore the true identity of Li Yu's master and servant.

Talk about this person! Sometimes it’s so strange. When Yu Ren was with Li Yu, he never asked about Li Yu’s life experience and didn’t seem to care. However, when Li Yu left, Yu Ren was more interested in her identity.

I want to know more and more.

With the care of Jiang Yuanwai, the attitudes of the shipowner and the sailors towards Yu Ren and the others have indeed changed a lot. Yu Ren led Cao An and Cao Wenzhao back to their cabin and saw a sailor.

He walked up to them and told them that the ship owner had changed them to a single room.

After the three of them followed the sailor and changed cabins, the sailor brought two more plates of roast chicken from outside. He said that they were sent by the captain, which was considered an apology to the three of them. After all this was done, the sailor withdrew.

Yu Ren was not polite. He knew that the ship owner was just looking for Jiang's face, so naturally he wouldn't sell it to him. However, he still took all the benefits in front of him.

Seeing Cao Wenzhao's salivating look, Yu Ren placed a plate of roast chicken in front of him. Cao Wenzhao quickly waved his hand.

Yu Ren patted Cao Wenzhao on the shoulder. "We are friends of life and death! Don't be polite to me for this little thing!"

After hearing what Yu Ren said, Cao Wenzhao took action.

Yu Ren looked on with cold eyes. Judging from his experience, Cao Wenzhao had not eaten for at least three days. The way he looked at eating roast chicken was actually a few minutes faster than when he was wielding a knife in a battle. That was really a wind and a broken cloud.

Ah! In just a few seconds, a roast chicken was ready. Moreover, no waste was wasted, and every bone was eaten cleanly.

Yu Ren waited until Cao Wenzhao finished eating the whole roast chicken, then tore off another half of the chicken from his plate and handed it to Cao Wenzhao.

Cao Wenzhao looked at Yu Ren sheepishly, "Hey! No more."

Yu Ren saw that he was not full, so he forced the roast chicken into his hand. "We just had lunch for lunch, so we can't eat much. If you don't eat, it will be a waste."

Cao Wenzhao glanced at Yu Ren gratefully before taking it.

Yu Ren was not polite and ate the remaining half with Cao An.

After the three of them had finished eating the roast chicken, a young man in his twenties came and knocked on their cabin door. He said that Jiang Yuan was inviting Mr. Yu to have a drink.

Yu Ren was not surprised at all. He had already guessed that this member of the Communist Party of China would definitely take this opportunity to get closer to him. Yu Ren politely said to the young man who passed the message, "Please wait a moment. I

Come right away."

After saying that, Yu Ren found a towel and wiped off the oil on his hands caused by eating roast chicken. Then he followed the young man to the cabin outside Jiang.

The cabin where Jiang was staying was obviously much larger than the one where Yu Ren and the others lived.

There was a banquet set on a small low table in the cabin. Even though it was on a ship, the food and drinks were plentiful.

When Jiang Yuan saw Yu Ren walking in, he hurriedly greeted him and moved him to the guest's seat. Yu Ren gave in a little humbly and saw that there were no other guests here, so he sat down unceremoniously. It was said to be a seat, but in fact

That is to lay a sheepskin mat on the bottom of the bilge. Because the cabin is not high, most people will bump their heads even when standing up, so the most convenient way is to sit on the floor.

The young man who had just led the way filled the two glasses with wine, and Jiang Yuanwai raised his glass. The two drank a glass. Then Jiang Yuanwai gave Yu Ren some food.

Seeing Yu Renwai greet him diligently, Yu Ren did not refuse. Jiang Yuanwai was obviously a little reserved and spoke very few words. This gave Yu Ren an illusion, as if he was the master, this Jiang

Employees are just like guests.

After three glasses of wine, Jiang Yuanwai relaxed a little, and the smile on his face was no longer as stiff as before.

"Where is Jiang Yuan from?" Yu Ren was supposed to be asked by Jiang Yuanwai, but Jiang Yuanwai was too reserved and refused to say much. In order to ease the atmosphere, Yu Ren had no choice but to turn to the guest.

"Oh! I am a native of Fuzhou. I run several shops in Hangzhou and Fuzhou. I mainly deal in adult business. I also do some cotton cloth business. Sometimes I sell some cotton cloth to Japan with others." Officer Jiang seemed to be reciting a resume.

replied as if.

"In this way, Jiang Yuanwai should be regarded as a big businessman." Yu Ren said casually.

"Don't dare, don't dare, small business, small business." Jiang Yuanwai's face changed color after hearing Yu Ren's words.

Yu Ren didn't know why Jiang Yuanwai suddenly changed his color, but looking at the old man's appearance, he seemed to be very afraid of himself. This look was similar to that of the pirate leader Zhong Liu from Huaiwu whom Yu Ren met on the ship a few days ago.

The expression on the flag was exactly the same.

Yu Ren didn't want to scare the old man in front of him. He must have just rescued himself. No matter what his purpose was, Yu Ren still felt grateful for his love in his heart.

So, Yu Ren gently raised the cup and touched it with Jiang Yuanwai. "I really want to thank Jiang Yuanwai for his generous help for what happened today! If it weren't for Jiang Yuanwai, my friend would have been kicked off the boat by them."

"I don't dare to take it, I don't dare to take it. I don't like those snobbish people. It's just a small thing that I did with a little effort. Don't take it to heart." Jiang Yuren listened to Yu Ren talking about what he had done to help them out today.

After all, he looked a little more relaxed.

Seeing that Jiang Yuanwai had regained some normality, Yu Ren took out the little flag from his arms and put it on the table. "Jiang Yuanwai has traveled all over the world and is well-informed. He must have known about my little flag.

What’s the origin?”

When Officer Jiang saw Yu Ren taking out the small flag, he quickly stood up from his seat and stepped aside. He was probably too panicked. Yu Ren clearly heard the "bang" when the old man's head hit the cabin roof.

There was a muffled sound. But Old Man Jiang didn't notice it at all. It was as if what he hit just now was not his head at all. He just stood there with his waist bent. The old man's expression was extremely nervous, "Don't dare! I'm just lucky.

I met him once by chance. I really don’t know the origin.”

Yu Ren sneered in his heart and thought, if you didn't know its origin, would you be so scared? It seems that this flag must have an extraordinary origin. Otherwise, how could it make the pirate leader Zhong Liu and the big businessman Jiang Yuanwai

So scared.

Although Yu Ren's curiosity became stronger, seeing that Jiang Yuanwai refused to tell the story of Xiao Qi's origin, he couldn't force him.

Since he couldn't find out the reason and saw that Jiang Yuanwei was always cautious, Yu Ren felt that it was tasteless. He always likes to be at ease. So, after taking a few bites, Yu Ren found a

An excuse to go back.

In the next few days, Jiang Yuanwai still invited Yu Ren to have a drink every day. With more contact, Jiang Yuanwai was no longer as afraid of Yu Ren as he was at first. However, as for what Yu Ren mentioned about this aspect
