Chapter 714 Abandoned Pier
But in this situation, life is more important.
However, compared to the past few days, people are worried that someone will come to steal food and money at any time.
Today's life is so much better.
While thinking about this, Jin Laowu asked everyone to pick up the fish from the bucket.
Before noon, Lu Qingqing and Old Man Zhuang were discussing Qin Lang's condition.
In the past few days, Old Man Zhuang discovered a new method and was explaining it to Lu Qingqing using a medical book.
Suddenly, Old Man Zhuang's nose moved.
He put the medical book in Lu Qingqing's hand, opened the door and ran out.
Outside, a young boy from the kitchen was carrying a large plate and walking towards here carefully.
Old man Zhuang stared at the braised fish on the plate, his saliva watering with greed.
The young man looked at Old Man Zhuang and said with a smile:
"This is what Boss Jin asked us to send over!
Master Li specially fried the ingredients with lard and added sauce to stew it. Please try it."
Upon hearing this, Old Man Zhuang took two steps forward and began to praise the fish.
"Oh, these are two big fish!
This braised shad is really good. Look at the color and aroma.
Xiaoliu, your chef Li’s cooking skills are really good! "
Old Man Zhuang praised as he took the plate of fish from Xiaoliu.
He was worried that the soup would spill, so he carried it carefully to the private room.
After I put the fish down in the house, I looked outside and found no one was there.
He hurriedly greeted Lu Qingqing.
"Qingqing girl, don't read that book for now.
Look at the fish on the stove. It looks really good.
Oh, I can eat five 200g steamed buns with this fish!"
Lu Qingqing also smelled the fragrance and raised her head from the book.
Old man Zhuang swiftly took out ten steamed buns from the bag.
Then, place the steamed buns on the small pot, light the fire and start heating the buns.
The two of them finished all ten steamed buns with the plate of braised fish.
After finishing the meal, Old Man Zhuang covered his bloated stomach and cried out that it was about to burst.
Lu Qingqing was slightly better off than him, but she was still holding on.
For the next few days, the passenger ship continued to fish.
The people on the boat went from eating fish excitedly at first to eating fish numbly later.
After all, not everyone has the conditions to cook braised fish.
Most people on the boat boiled or grilled fish.
Some don't even have salt added, and the taste is really not that good.
But with food available and the various forces on the ship being basically in balance, there was no further trouble.
What worried everyone on the boat the most was the fishing nets.
Because this fishing net is used non-stop from morning to night.
The fishing nets could not bear the weight and broke in many places.
Fortunately, someone on the boat was thinking about it and repaired the fishing net bit by bit.
During this period, Lu Qingqing would go to see Jin Laowu every few days.
Ask where the passenger ship is now and how many days it will take to reach Pengcheng County.
That day, Lu Qingqing went to inquire as usual.
When he heard Jin Laowu say that it would take about two days to reach Pengcheng County, he couldn't help but smile.
The speed of the passenger ship was faster than she had initially expected.
As we were almost reaching Pengcheng County, the question we had to think about was what to do next.
In fact, she had thought about this issue many times during these days on the ship.
According to what she had talked about with King Huai before, King Chuang stayed in the capital for more than 40 days after he captured the capital.
In other words, the barbarians have not yet reached the capital.
When the barbarians captured the capital, the main force went after the King of Rebellion.
Although she didn't know the exact route, she could still guess the general route.
So she has planned these days.
After getting off the boat in Pengcheng County, she asked around at the dock in Pengcheng County.
See if there is a boat going further south. It would be best if it can go directly to Jiangdu City.
If not, then take the nearest boat and go as far as the boat can.
After getting off the boat, she hurried south as fast as she could.
However, Qin Lang is still in a coma.
In addition, Old Man Zhuang can't ride a horse, so driving a horse-drawn carriage on the road became an inevitable option.
Lu Qingqing has everything planned out, but things always seem to go astray.
That evening, the passenger ship was sailing.
Suddenly it stopped abruptly as if it had hit something.
Everyone on the boat was knocked down by this sudden movement.
Old man Zhuang held his stone mortar and rolled twice on the ground.
When he got up and was about to curse, he saw Lu Qingqing walking out the door with a weapon in hand.
"Qingqing girl, what happened?"
Not only Old Man Zhuang had this doubt, but everyone on the boat also didn't know what had happened and came out to check.
On the deck, Jin Laowu grabbed the mast to steady himself and hurried to check the situation.
He has been traveling this route for more than ten years.
We shouldn't run aground at this location!
But it was obvious that it had hit something. Apart from running aground, the only thing left was someone trying to stop the boat.
But didn’t this pier close down several years ago?
He thought as he looked down.
When I saw clearly that the boat had hit the iron chain that was blocking the ship, I became nervous.
There were no chains blocking the road here before.
Who is responsible for this situation?
Just as he was thinking about it, a large group of people rushed out from the long-abandoned dock, and there seemed to be hundreds of people in total.
Jin Laowu was horrified and was about to order the boatmen to turn around and go back when he found that the chain behind him had been pulled up.
Now, the big ship was completely stopped.
But now the boat is in the middle of the river, some distance from the shore.
Just as everyone on the boat was rejoicing, people on the shore dragged out more than a dozen small boats.
Now, even Jin Laowu couldn't stand it.
He has been sailing for more than ten years and has never encountered such a situation.
It's not like he hadn't encountered difficulties before, but it was nothing more than paying money to find connections.
In this situation, even if he handed over all his wealth, he might not be able to save his life.
Looking at the chaos on the boat, he knew that he could not rely on anyone now.
He ordered his brothers to divide the food and money into several portions, giving each person one portion.
He told his brothers to take advantage of the chaos and jump into the water to escape.
Those who eat on the boat are much better at swimming than ordinary people.
If you choose the right time, you have a chance to survive.
Lu Qingqing observed the actions of everyone on the boat and knew that this time she had no choice but to escape.
She quickly returned to the single room and asked Old Man Zhuang to lock the door and pack up his things.
He led the horse back to the bottom of the cabin, put on the carriage frame, and pulled the carriage out.
When she led the carriage back to the room, the small boat on the shore was already approaching the passenger ship in the middle of the river.
She didn't care about anything else and carried Qin Lang into the carriage.
Old man Zhuang was now hurriedly moving his precious medicinal herbs and medical books into the carriage.
