This change was completely beyond Chen Baoxiang's expectation.
He originally thought that it was just a coincidence that Ruan Shiba's ship stopped here. Unexpectedly, everything was Bi Jing's trick arrangement.
"What's wrong, sir? What law have I broken?"
"Are you pretending to be confused? A few days ago, six Japanese experts were killed in the water area next to Lixia Pavilion. Have you forgotten it now?"
Chen Baoxiang stood behind Bi Jing and did not dare to act rashly.
"You've got the wrong person. I'm just a boatman, but I don't dare to kill someone!"
"The surname is Ruan, right? The descendant of the three heroes of the Ruan family in Liangshan, right? The purpose of rowing in Daming Lake is to assassinate the Japanese devils, right?"
Bi Jing understood everything, and Ruan Shiba could not defend himself at all.
No matter what he does, he can't escape the clutches of the devil.
"Uncle, you really recognized the wrong person."
"Catch him!"
Bi Jing shouted, and a dozen of his men immediately surrounded him.
Ruan Shiba suddenly bent down and exerted force. The wooden boat swayed from side to side, and some people lost their balance and fell into the water.
With a bang, Bi Jing fired, but Ruan Shiba followed the sound of the gun and jumped over into Daming Lake.
With a splash, a huge bubble appeared on the lake, and the person was gone.
"What the hell, are you letting him run away like this?"
Bi Jing was unwilling to give in. After losing so many times, he had to find a way to win once.
Chen Baoxiang could see clearly that Ruan Shiba was shot in the chest. Even if he escaped with water escape, water would still enter the wound, which would be more serious than bad.
Only now did he realize how cunning and cunning Bi Jing was. It was impossible for others to figure out what he wanted to do.
When the fangs are finally exposed, the prey has nowhere to escape.
"Boss Chen, are you scared just now? There are hidden dragons and crouching tigers in Jinan City. A small boatman is actually a descendant of Liangshan heroes. It seems that it is still early for the Japanese to completely take over this city!"
Chen Baoxiang had nothing to say and could only smile.
Bi Jing's men took a big boat and searched half of the lake, but in the end they did not find Ruan Shiba.
"If you want to see him alive, you want to see his corpse... damn, if I had known that this guy was so stubborn, I might as well have just shot him!"
In front of Chen Baoxiang, Bi Jing lost face and could not keep his face.
The two of them took a boat and went to Lixia Pavilion on the island in the middle of the lake.
There is a gentle breeze all around, and the weeping willows on the shore are turning green.
Jinan’s early spring has arrived as promised.
"Ms. Li comes from a well-known family. When she was studying in Tokyo, she stayed in Sendai and Tokyo for a long time. She has a very sophisticated understanding of Japanese medicine and culture. Boss Chen, it's amazing that you can establish a relationship with her.
It’s so simple!”
Chen Baoxiang described in detail the process of Bi Gong introducing him to Li Xiaoxue. At that time, he could not have imagined that Bi Gong would end up so tragically.
"A feast to welcome the spring in Jinan, very good, very good."
Bi Jing was very emotional and took Chen Baoxiang around the island.
A group of wild geese that had returned early flew across the sky, forming a huge herringbone formation.
Bi Jing quickly took out his gun and fired two shots into the air. The two wild geese fell down with a mournful cry and fell into the Daming Lake.
"Boss Chen, the Japanese occupied Jinan. All Jinan people are like these stupid wild geese. Whenever the Japanese want to eat wild geese meat, who in Jinan dares to resist?"
Chen Baoxiang was trembling inside and did not dare to speak.
Bi Jing's metaphor is very appropriate and extremely terrifying.
For humans, they can easily influence the life and death of wild geese.
For Jinan, the Japanese can easily determine the prosperity or decline of this city.
"After the banquet, Boss Chen, you are now a friend of the Japanese. Who dares to stop you from opening a restaurant in Grand View Garden and establishing a brand name? Congratulations, congratulations!"
Chen Baoxiang didn't think that far ahead. He cooperated with Tian Dongliu and just wanted to honor his ancestors and bring glory to the Chen family's ancestors.
As for whether we can cooperate with the Japanese, that is secondary.
"Master Bi, I'd better have less contact with the Japanese. The last time you had a banquet at the Rice Shop, the neighbors thought I was a Japanese bastard and a traitor..."
Bi Jing laughed: "Okay, under the iron heel, is there a perfect egg? In fact, let me tell you, many people in Jinan want to be scoundrels and traitors, but they suffer from the fact that there is no way to heaven and no way to earth. For example, Gao Gao
The two young masters of the Huang family in Dusi Lane——"
Chen Baoxiang smiled bitterly. He knew that the first and second young masters Huang used all their abilities to be appreciated by the Japanese and to protect the safety of the Huang family.
In troubled times, who can stay safe alone?
Everything they do is for the entire family, men, women, and children, not themselves.
The eldest grandma and second grandma of the Huang family scolded and scolded them, showing deep love and deep rebuke.
The two took the boat, returned to the shore, and walked side by side towards Gaudus Alley.
"Boss Chen, last time Mr. Huang swore in front of me that the two ancient bookshelves at home are full of calligraphy and painting by famous people from all dynasties. Please invite me to come over and choose at will. Now, let's go and take a look."
Before entering Gaudus Alley, Bi Jing took out his pistol and checked the bullets.
Chen Baoxiang couldn't help but say: "Second Master Bi, the Huang family are good people. They have put a lot of thought into the banquet. If you have done anything wrong, please show your kindness and spare their lives..."
Bi Jing laughed: "Don't worry too much, Boss Chen. This is my habit for many years. Being careful can make a boat sail for thousands of years. If you are not careful, a small ditch can capsize the boat, hehehehe..."
After entering Huang's house, the two went directly to the kitchen in the side yard.
The housekeeper wanted to report it, but was dragged aside by Bi Jing's people.
The second young master Huang was chopping vegetables, while the first young master Huang stood at the door of the kitchen, studying the recipes in the sunshine.
When the four people met, Bi Jing laughed loudly: "You two, please assist Boss Chen to complete this feast first. Later, when we get to the Grand View Garden, Boss Chen will have to borrow your cooking skills!"
Huang Ershao said with a smile on his face: "Yes, yes, we are all waiting for Boss Chen to plant the flag in the Grand View Garden. Under his leadership, we will carry forward the glory of Shandong cuisine and receive guests from all over the world."
At this moment, the cage on the stove was already steaming.
"Boy, I'm making 'A Piece of Ice in a Jade Pot'. In the stew pot, there are tenderloin slices, bamboo shoot slices, pork skin slices, chicken skin slices, beef tongue slices, and duck tongue slices. They are then boiled with rock sugar and finally become crystal jelly.
”
Bi Jing smiled: "The cold rain comes to Wu at night, and Chu Shangu is sent off in the morning. Relatives and friends in Luoyang are like asking each other, and a heart of ice is in a jade pot. Okay, okay, the meaning is meaningful and the taste is unique, then we are waiting to taste it
alright."
They chatted in the kitchen for a while and then returned to the yard.
Someone pulled the housekeeper over and pushed him to the ground.
"Butler Ruan, right? We just killed your brother Ruan Shiba in Daming Lake. We want to avenge him, so you can come to me now."
Only now did Chen Baoxiang realize that Bi Jing was targeting the housekeeper, not the two young masters of the Huang family.
"Uncle, I don't know what you are talking about. My surname is not Ruan, my surname is Yuan, and I am Yuanhao. I want to ask descendants..."
The housekeeper struggled, Bi Jing took out his pistol, loaded the bullet, and pressed it against the housekeeper's temple.
"Yes, it doesn't matter what your last name is. Many Japanese people took boats on the lake, and it was you who revealed the news to Ruan Shiba. He killed people in the water. If someone is good at water and is lucky enough to get ashore, he will die under your knife. Don't think so.
The Japanese spies are just decorations. They didn't touch you, they just didn't want to kill anyone. Now, you only have one chance. Where is one of the other three heroes of the Ruan family?"
Chen Baoxiang seemed to be in a fog, wondering how many secrets Bi Jing knew.
Previously, he had always thought that Bi Gong and Bi Jing came from Peiping and left after finishing their work, so they would not become enemies with the heroes of Jinan.
Looking at it now, Bi Jing is not afraid of making enemies at all.
He wanted to kill people without any scruples and never gave others a chance to escape.
The housekeeper laughed: "Okay, the Northeastern Army commander's 'Er Bi' is really powerful. Our brothers have been hiding for so long, and you captured them as soon as we met. You can kill or behead us. You don't have to wait for me to betray you."
brother."
"It's ridiculous for you little guys to use your arms like a chariot -"
With a bang, Bi Jing fired, and the housekeeper's temple was pierced, and he fell to the ground dead.
"Okay, we have eliminated another traitor. Boss Chen, your feast can begin."
Bi Jing sneered, blew on the muzzle, and loaded the pistol.
The two young masters of the Huang family were paralyzed with fear, squatting on one side and unable to stand up.
"Hey, two young masters, the housekeeper's affairs have nothing to do with you. Cooperate well with Boss Chen, and you will always be friends of the Japanese. Do you understand?"
Chen Baoxiang followed Bi Jing out of Gaodusi Lane and onto Ximen Street.
"Boss Chen, good deeds will be rewarded with good deeds, and deeds will be rewarded with evil deeds. It's not that you won't be rewarded. The time has not yet come. Open the restaurant well and I will remove the obstacles for you and make the business prosperous. Even Mr. Feng knows that your future will be bright in the future."
It's so precious that I can't wait to go there every day to fawn over you."
The two parted at the entrance of Luoyuan Mansion. Bi Jing led people in. When the sentries saw him, they all stood at attention and saluted.
Chen Baoxiang returned to the rice shop, his heart was pounding and he still didn't calm down.
Liu Yue'e came over with a teapot and poured him tea.
Chen Baoxiang went to hold the tea bowl with both hands, only to find that his arms were paralyzed with fear and he could not bend any of his ten fingers.
"What's wrong, boss?"
"Bi Jing kills people. He shoots and kills people on the spot. He is like a devil. We must not mess with him. We must not mess with him."
Chen Baoxiang was helpless. With his current strength, fighting against Bi Jing was tantamount to seeking death.
Only by accompanying you with a smiling face, and with Bi Jingxu and Yan Snake, can you live a good life.
"Master, we will definitely not provoke him."
Liu Yue'e is an honest person and thinks that as long as she doesn't cause trouble, she will always be safe.
Only Chen Baoxiang knew that with Bi Jing's personality, if he was offended by something as trivial as sesame seeds and mung beans, he would be killed.
"Master, someone brought snacks and a letter."
Liu Yue'e brought the letter and Chen Baoxiang opened it and saw that it was from the Eighth Front Army.
"Boss Chen, you know what you say. Our important member You Canghai was arrested by the Japanese invaders. It happened at Chen's rice shop. You have an unshirkable responsibility. I hereby order you to find a way to fish out You Canghai as soon as possible. Otherwise, delay
The longer it goes on, the harder it will be to guarantee the lives of your family of five."
