After going ashore, Ye Xiaozhou immediately beckoned the military police captain to come over, and did not introduce He Guangzong, but directly ordered: "Call your people to clear the way, we have an ox cart to come in here."
Find a few more porters to move the goods. ” The gendarme captain hurriedly agreed, trotted out into the crowd and called several gendarmes to separate the crowd on the dock with the butts of their rifles, and ordered one of his men to call a few slender men.
There are a lot of slender men at this wharf, because as long as it is not a motorized boat from here to Chongqing, it needs a slender man to pull the boat.
These porters are porters who carry goods when they are not working.
Ye Xiaozhou and He Guangzong also followed the gendarmerie captain to the edge of the dock, and saw that Li Yixin and Yamashita Masao were sitting on the ox cart with nothing to do, so they hurriedly beckoned: "Boss Li, Mr.
Sun, let's go, the road to the dock has been cleared, let's go to the shore to prepare to unload." ” By the time their ox cart was driven to the shore, several porters were already standing there, and the gendarmerie captain said to Ye Xiaozhou with some flattery: "Are these people enough?"
Not enough to look for it again. ” Ye Xiaozhou was afraid that this military police captain would leak his mouth in front of Li Yixin and that Mr.
Sun, so he waved his hand impatiently and said, "Okay, there's nothing to do with you here, you just go over and let your subordinates maintain the passage."
Don't block the road again. ” The gendarmerie captain hurriedly agreed, went to his men and shouted a few times, and ordered his men to maintain the passage.
And when Yamashita Masao saw that the gendarmes on the dock were obedient to Ye Xiaozhou, he couldn't help but feel relieved, and he had a new understanding of the power of Lu Ziyuan, who was willing to cooperate with the empire.
He smiled and said to Ye Xiaozhou: "It seems that Mr.
Lu is still very calm, and even the gendarmes on the dock have to be obedient." ” Before Ye Xiaozhou could answer, He Guangzong preemptively said in a proud tone at this time: "Of course, our boss Lu has a good relationship with their boss's boss, and Qiu Ba dare not disobey this little idea." ” Li Yixin didn't want to waste time here, so he said directly to Yamashita Masao: "Old Sun, let's go, let's get on the ship first to inspect the goods." ” Masao Yamashita nodded to He Guangzong at this time, jumped on the boat with Li Yixin, and casually opened one of the pile of sacks that were neatly stacked together.
Yamashita Masao carefully touched it with his hand, then opened another sack to check it, and said to Li Yixin: "The quality of this batch of bristles is good, but the quantity is a little less. ” Li Yixin pretended to be very helpless and replied: "Old Sun, there is no way, we and Ye Xiaozhou only have three people, if we get too many bristles this time, it is not easy to transport, and the distance back is not close." ” He Guangzong, who also jumped on the boat at this time, explained with a smile: "Boss Li is not wrong, our Boss Lu has been carefully considered, you have a long way to go back, and it may be very difficult if you transport too much."
But you can rest assured, this batch of bristles has been screened by me personally, and the quality is the best of the best, and there will be absolutely no inferior goods. ” Masao Yamashita didn't say anything anymore when he heard this, and shouted to Ye Xiaozhou on the shore: "The goods are fine, tell them to unload them." ” About an hour later, the bristle porters were loaded onto the bullock cart.
One of the older porters laughed at Ye Xiaozhou and said, "Boss, this foot is ...... money."
Ye Xiaozhou changed color and scolded: "I can afford you to ask a few of you to move goods, what kind of money do you need?"
You go over there and ask for those soldiers!
” Li Yixin couldn't stand it anymore, he knew that if these people with thick calluses on their shoulders went to ask for money from the soldiers, those gendarmes would definitely not give it.
He hurriedly said: "Forget it, Xiaozhou, they earn all the hard-earned money, don't embarrass them, I'll give them this money." ” After speaking, he took out a few fiat coins from his body and handed them to the porter, saying, "Take it." ” The porter bowed and bowed to Li Yixin with gratitude on his face, and took the money and left with the rest of the porters.
At this time, Li Yixin said to Ye Xiaozhou: "We are going out, and there are many difficulties and dangers along the way, so we don't have to save these few small money."
Let's go. ” Yamashita Masao arched his hand to He Guangzong and said, "Shopkeeper He, we will meet later, goodbye." ” In this way, Ye Xiaozhou drove the ox cart, and Yamashita Masao and Li Yixin left Fengdu Wharf on the sack of the ox cart.
Ye Xiaozhou and others drove the ox cart all the way, and soon got into the mountains and mountains of Daba Mountain, all the way were sheep's intestine trails, and it took several days to go around in the mountains before they got out of the Daba Mountain Range and entered Western Hubei Province.
On this day, Ye Xiaozhou suddenly stopped hurrying, which made Masao Yamashita and Li Yixin feel a little strange.
Of course, Li Yixin's strangeness was faked, and he knew that the place not far ahead should be the military demarcation line between China and Japan.
And that is also the place where he and Deputy Director Ye agreed to plan an ambush, according to the plan in advance, there should be a shootout when crossing the military demarcation line, which can make the three of them escape without the bristles being taken away.
It's just that he doesn't know the details of this operation.
And Masao Yamashita didn't know anything about it, he was really quite curious why Ye Xiaozhou suddenly stopped.
So he opened his mouth and asked Ye Xiaozhou, "Mr.
Ye, why did you suddenly stop here?"
” Ye Xiaozhou jumped out of the ox cart and replied: "Mr.
Sun, there is a small river not far ahead, which is the military demarcation line between the two sides, and it is also the last difficulty of our trip.
If we pass here, we'll be considered successful.
The inspections here are quite strict, and we must not be able to pass through such an ox cart full of goods, especially with such things as pig bristles, which are strictly forbidden to be transported.
So, according to the explanation given to me by the shopkeeper He, I was going to a place to find someone to get a boat, and then smuggled the bristles through an unobtrusive riverbank.
You wait for me here in this ox-cart and find a hidden place, and I have to go and get the boat alone.
I'll come back and pick you up when I get the boat. ” Yamashita Masao originally thought that through the military demarcation line should be Xinglong Firm bought off the Chinese army here, some time ago he and Li Yixin passed the military demarcation line was very easy, but it was also the shopkeeper He went to find someone alone, and after coming back, he found a way to find a thorny path to sneak through.
Therefore, he was convinced of Ye Xiaozhou's words, and just told Ye Xiaozhou: "Then you go and go back quickly, the target of our ox cart is too big and it is easy to be discovered." ”
