An assassin? Call me the Master of Raising Prices!

Before the person arrived, the prefect waved his hand and shouted, "Mr. Zhao, you are busy with business, so I'll be late. Please forgive me, please!"

Seeing that he was polite, Zhao said politely: "Mr. Shi is really dedicated. He hasn't gone to bed yet so late."

"Yeah!" The prefect Shi helped the attendant walk onto the boat.

While walking up the stairs, he waved his hand and smiled politely: "Master Zhao is doing his duty and responsibilities, and he is not idle when he travels around the country, hahaha."

"We are both the same, for the sake of progress!" Zhao raised his eyebrows and pointed.

"Hahaha, progress, progress!"

"Ha ha."

The two looked at each other and laughed, standing side by side by side on the railing, looking at Pingjing River. After hesitating for a moment, the prefect Shi lowered his head and asked softly: "Mr. Zhao is planning to leave tonight?"

"That's the plan," Zhao said frankly.

"Okay, okay! I'll ask someone to sail the boat over." Prefect Shi looked back at the boat prepared by the lake and quickly answered.

Unexpectedly, Zhao immediately grabbed his hand, lowered his voice and said lightly, "No need to be so troublesome. Didn't Lord Shi come here by boat? I'll borrow Lord Shi's east wind."

"That's fine." Master Shi nodded.

Although the boat carrying him was not big, it was still fine to ride five or six people. It was more than enough to get Zhao and Liu Zhiyuan.

"Then... when will Lord Zhao leave?"

Zhao looked at the sky with his head and silently calculated the time in his heart, "Now is the end of the Chou Time, and we will leave in the second moment of Yin Time."

"Okay, I'll go down and ask the boatman." The prefect responded repeatedly.

But as soon as he took a few steps, Zhao was pulled by him, "No need to tell the boatman, when the time comes, we will get on the boat quietly. Besides, if you know, you may leak the secrets if you know it!"

"Okay, okay! Lord Zhao is considerate and feels worse than that!" Prefect Shi immediately spoke flatteringly.

Don’t worry about whether it’s true or not, or whether it’s heartfelt, as the saying goes: Wear everything without wearing it!

Let’s talk about it first!

"Haha." Zhao grinned.

He patted the prefect Shi on the shoulder and sighed with a little relief: "Sir Shi, you are born to be an official now!"

"Where, where? It's all thanks to Lord Zhao's guidance and promotion!" The prefect Shi still flattered Zhao.

The two flattered each other in the night wind and laughed from time to time. In the eyes of those who don’t know the inside story, they must think that the two have a deep friendship and are familiar with each other.

Time passes slowly, and it is the hour of Yin in a blink of an eye. Seeing that the time was almost over, Zhao hurriedly bowed, "Sir Shi stayed, I still have some small things to do, so I had to trouble Mr Shi for a while."

"Mr. Zhao, don't be polite, just go!" The prefect Shi replied.

Seeing that he didn't mind, Zhao nodded to apologize, and then turned around and walked towards the second floor.

When I opened the door, I saw four people who had already eaten and drunk enough, holding hot tea, siping to relieve greasiness. He glanced around and made sure there was no one outside, then he spoke: "Blow out the candle and we will run away in a quarter of an hour."

Liu Zhiyuan got closer and turned around and blew out the candle. Zhao blinked his eyes to adapt to the sudden darkness, "Qinglong, in a quarter of an hour, our ship will turn and sway vertically. There is a small boat a few steps away from the stern. You take Brother Liu out of the window on the left, first Waiting on the boat.”

"Okay." Qinglong replied softly.

Zhao continued to arrange, "Baihu and Zhuque, you two will get on the boat after the Qinglong gets on the boat. Before you both leave, blow out all the candlelight on the boat."

"Okay." The two of them spoke in unison.

After explaining Zhao, he didn't stay much, and stood up and walked to the stern. After instructing several boatmen to make the boat turn and sway vertically, he went out to wave to the boatman.

"Boatman, Lord Shi has an order to let you come up."

"Huh?" The boatman scratched his head, feeling confused. But due to the order of the prefect, he nodded, supported the boat and climbed onto the big boat.

As soon as he climbed onto the boat and had not yet stood firm, Zhao immediately took action, locked the boatman's neck, and covered his mouth and nose tightly with a handkerchief soaked in the medicine.

After just a few struggles, the boatman collapsed from limbs and fainted from powerlessness.

Drag the boatman into Zhao's room, put it on a chair and position it, then move the candlestick a distance to make it closer to the window.

After doing everything, before I could wipe off the sweat from my forehead, I felt that the big boat under my feet had begun to turn. Zhao hurried out of the cabin and shouted to the prefect Shi who was standing outside, "Sir Shi, you go up the boat first, I'll wait."

"Okay." The prefect Shi said nothing, and hurriedly walked towards the boat.

Seeing that the prefect boarded the boat, a very fast shadow flashed across. It was not until the ship was fully swayed, and two more figures flashed by. Zhao then breathed a sigh of relief, took out the fire stick and blew it on, gently opened the unclosed window with his hand, and used the fire stick to light up the candlestick specially placed by the window.

As the light lit up, Zhao changed into a straw raincoat and hat that he had taken off the boatman, turned to admire his masterpiece, and then walked towards the boat with a swagger.

Seeing the boatman dressed as a boatman boarding the boat, the prefect Shi was not polite and ordered: "Hurry, hurry! Get the boat!"

Zhao looked down at the cabin and saw that Liu Zhiyuan, Qinglong, Baihu and Zhuque were all in place. Then he responded with a "Okay" and walked towards the shore with a boat.

Hearing the familiar voice, the prefect Shi was at a loss for a moment and had to apologize: "So Lord Zhao, oh, look at my eyes!"

"Sir Shi, don't make a sound!" Zhao raised his palm and pressed it down, signaling him not to speak again.

The prefect Shi was tactful and immediately shut up, without saying a word, just standing on the boss’s head, staring at the surroundings with bright eyes.

The boat walked very fast because Zhao didn't dare to delay at all, and the bamboo pole was about to show the afterimage. When I arrived at the shore, it was only a quarter of an hour.

When the prefect got off the boat, Zhao raised the bamboo pole again and drove to the north with the boat.

In the drizzle, the lake surface was blurred, as if there was a fog in front of me. In addition, boats come and go on the lake, so a small boat will naturally not attract many people's attention.

In order to be more ordinary, Zhao deliberately slowed down and moved to the north bank little by little. It was only when the sky was dawn that the boat landed.

"Down one by one, don't worry." Zhao put down the bamboo pole and said to the four people in the cabin.

The four of them obediently and did as they did, one after another slowly drilling out of the cabin and disappeared. After the four of them left, Zhao looked back at the lake for a long time, making sure they did not cause much fluctuation, so he slowly walked off the boat and walked towards the shore.

Walk slowly along the shore, paying attention to the movements and movements in all directions as we walked, until the sparsely populated area, and then waved to let the four of them appear.

"Go and get a carriage."
