The two people outside walked in, both dressed normally, but Wu Tiju noticed that their waists were straight and their eyes were steady. They did not look like people who had been living at sea all year round.

"Are you two from Lingxu City?" Wu Titi stood up to greet you, his face pleasant. He was always polite to Bejia's visitors, "Why can I help you?"

At the same time, he said to Zhao Qianshi: "Come and watch the tea!"

"Yes." Zhao Qianshi went out to get tea.

"No need." The two men smiled, one took out a roll of yellow paper from his arms and opened it, and the other took out his official badge, which shimmered to prove his identity.

"We belong to the Black Tiger Army of Lingxu City, and we hunted down Bega's fugitives all the way to Blade Port. Does Wu Tiju have any impression of this demon criminal?"

When Wu Tiju took a look, he found that the yellow scroll was actually a wanted warrant. The fugitive's profile picture looked like a ferocious spider. The row of eyes made him suffer from trypophobia.

"Causing trouble in the Heavenly Palace, snatching secret treasures, and escaping to this day..." There are several eye-catching red official seals on the wanted order, "Fugitive Zhu... Erniang?"

Wu Tiju thought for a while and shook his head: "I haven't seen it before."

"Have you heard?" the two asked, "There seem to be a lot of new people coming to Blade Port recently, causing a lot of trouble?"

Wu Tiju was about to deny it when he suddenly remembered something:

The fugitive on the wanted poster is a spider demon? Don't the pirates of the Yangshan Islands brag all day long that there is a big demon next to the island owner who is particularly good at fighting and fishing for ghosts is like catching fish?

That monster seems to be a giant spider?

Hey, could it be...?

But is there really such a coincidence in the world? The monster next to Lord He is the fugitive that Bega is chasing? There are many spider monsters in the world.

As soon as he hesitated, the two people opposite him asked, "What did Wu Tiju think of?"

"Well, it's nothing, it's nothing." Wu Tiju calmed down, "What do you call them?"

"His surname is Wang." One person pointed to his companion and then to himself, "My surname is Ye, Ye Qing."

"This fugitive Zhu Erniang is ranked second on the most wanted list. He is a heinous criminal and is a serious criminal that we must arrest and bring to justice!" Ye Qing said sternly, "I hope the Shipping Department of Blade Port City will cooperate in the arrest!"

"Do you two know the specific whereabouts of this fugitive?"

Ye Qing paid attention to his expression: "Does Wu Tiju know?"

Wu Tiju asked: "How big is this spider?"

"Comparable to a cabin."

"So big?" Wu Tiju frowned, "If it was showing off in Blade Port, I should have heard about it."

"Should" never equates to "is."

Wu Tiju came up with another "but": "The Blade Port is busy with passenger traffic, and countless humans and monsters come in and out every day. The local residents have long been accustomed to it. If this big guy takes a boat off at the dock, there will be no place to chase him. .”

Ye Qing and the two of them were also a little helpless. The boss of this city ship company was really an old man. He couldn't fault every word he said, but every word he said was nonsense.

Be careful and leak-proof.

They could only make it clear: "We have verified that this spider demon is now hiding in the Yangshan Islands, under the protection of the island owner named He!"

"Yangshan Islands?" Wu Tiju said in a long voice, "No wonder, that sea area is very wide. Even if a spider monster several times larger is hidden in it, others can't find it."

Seeing him doing Tai Chi again, Ye Qing said bluntly: "Master He is unwilling to hand over the spider demon. We hope that Wu Tiju can put pressure on the Yangshan Islands."

At this time, Zhao Qianshi returned and personally served tea to the two of them.

Wu Tiju groaned: "You two are from Bejia and don't know much about our place. Although the Yangshan Islands are across the sea from Dao Feng Port, they are not on the territory of Qingguo and are not under the jurisdiction of Dao Feng Port. This He Island The main reason is that we are unwilling to hand over the fugitives, and we have no power to coerce..."

Seeing his excuse, Ye Qing frowned: "He has property in Blade Port, and you are promoting him. You can use an excuse to get him ashore. I don't need to worry about the rest."

Is this a tough move? Wu Tiju was startled and waved his hands in panic: "I can't do it, I can't do it."

He is a lift, he is not a robber or a kidnapper!

The reason why Blade Port can prosper is because it occupies the status of a free port, and because the business environment here is relatively fair? If an official like him personally turns out to be a kidnapper, how is that different from other places?

Do merchants still dare to trade and buy property in Blade Port?

Wu Tiju deeply understood that the foundation for his family's prosperity was Blade Port. Even if you want to help the Bega people, you can't touch your roots.

Without rules and regulations, who will do business with you in the future?

Seeing that Ye Qing was about to follow him, Wu Tiju hurriedly said: "But, I can give you two suggestions."

"any solution?"

"The Yangshan Islands are not under the jurisdiction of the Qing State, but in the final analysis they are still Bailie's territory. If a private person buys the entire archipelago from the Lu family, it does not mean that this archipelago is independent. It is still under Bailie's jurisdiction. ." Wu Tiju said with a smile, "It's like a businessman going to Qucheng, the capital of Bailie, to buy land and buy a house. The money is paid, the land is bought, and the house is built, but when living in that house, he still has to abide by the rules. There are so many laws and regulations, how can they be lawless?"

Ye Qing and the two looked at each other: "You mean, Bailie can get him?"

"Strictly speaking, that's true."

Ye Qing hesitated for a moment and then said: "I heard that the owner of He Island had frequent business contacts with Bailie after he bought the island. The relationship between them should be good, right?"

Qingguo has been flirting with Bejia in the past few years, and Blade Port is a free port. Anyone can come, and they can reveal their identity at will; but in Bailie... I'm afraid it will be counterproductive.

Therefore, Yu Zecheng asked them to come and inquire about Shibo Division first.

Wu Tiju laughed loudly: "Those are all appearances. The Lu family is feeling useless! You two don't know anything. The Yangshan Islands have been shrouded in evil spirits for many years and have always been a forbidden area. Even the ancient immortals were not allowed to do so. He was willing to get closer. Bailie regarded it as useless and sold it to the current owner of He Island for 80,000 taels. However, he did not expect that the islands would lose their evil spirit in the hands of the owner of He Island, and they would be able to attract people and farm. The deserted island suddenly turned into a treasure land. The Lu family suffered such a big loss and regretted it until their intestines turned green."

He kept in touch with Lu Zhensheng, and of course he knew the mentality of the Lu family father and son very well.

"Besides, the Yangshan Islands are recruiting people hard and the wages are high, which has absorbed a lot of labor in Bailie. As far as I know, in many places, entire villages have moved south and moved directly to the islands. Bailie had to The ban on relocation has been issued, but unfortunately it has had little effect. The population is still losing and has not improved." He sighed, "Yangshan is poaching Bailie, do you think Bailie can have a good impression of them?"

Ye Qing asked: "Bailie wants to take this archipelago back?"

"Think about it, why don't you think about it?" Wu Tiju walked back to the table, spread out the paper, and began to write quickly.
