Chapter 961 Robbery!
The wide river surface is cold and quiet.
From the time of departure to now, Chen Tian and others have only seen one cargo ship all the way. And the cargo ship doesn't seem to be running long distances... And if it were the past, it would have been normal to encounter more than a dozen ships in such a section of water.
From this point, we can see that the Mekong River is not peaceful recently. It can be said that no ship dares to walk on this water area now, and all of this is obviously caused by the drug lords.
The sky was getting darker, and Chen Tian and Wu Shun were still sitting on their heads. The lights hanging on the cabin shot out dim lights in the darkness. The already quiet river surface became quieter at this time. There was only the roaring sound of their boat around the radius.
"Brother Chen, do you want to find a place to rest? If you continue to move forward, someone will definitely come forward to stop us." Wu Shun said.
Chen Tian nodded, "Brother Wu, you are the most familiar with this water area. You can do whatever you say."
Wu Shun responded and arranged the two crew members to slow down and find a place to stop first.
In fact, there is nothing we can do about it. It was not peaceful here at first, and in the middle of the night, the roar of their ship was too loud and could be heard from a distance. Once a boat was heard passing by, those guys who were living on the shore and living on this ship would definitely come.
Of course, Chen Tian was not worried about this. There was another reason why he agreed to let Wu Shun stop the ship. That is, until now, Yin Zhongtu and the Taibang master have not called him. In other words, although Chen Tian has entered the Golden Triangle area now, he does not know where to go or where to trade.
Wu Shun also didn't know about this. The reason why he knew that the crew was kidnapped and then kidnapped the two crew members was asked to find Chen Tian because the crew members who came back told him that he did not have direct contact with the people who kidnapped the two crew members.
A crew member was left to pay attention to the situation at the bow. Chen Tian and Wushun entered the cabin. They took out the beef and other side dishes prepared in advance, and then Wushun took out another bottle of white wine.
"Brother Chen, take a few sips?"
"Okay. Brother Wu wants to drink, let's accompany you..." Chen Tian smiled, and then he suddenly stopped before he finished speaking.
The sound was that someone was rushing towards this side on the shore. And there should be quite a few people, and the sound of running was very noisy.
After seeing this, Chen Tian couldn't help but sneer. It was coming so fast? It seemed that these people were not far from here just now. They must have been attracted by hearing the roar of the boat.
"Brother Wu, I'm afraid I'll drink this wine later." Chen Tian said, turning his head and shook his eyes.
The assassin understood and immediately turned around and left the cabin, patted the boatman who was guarding the bow, and signaled him to enter the cabin. The boatman was unclear, so he couldn't help but look at Wushun.
Wu Shun was also stunned, but he knew that Chen Tian was not an ordinary person. Although he was not a person from the underground world in the true sense, he also had a lot of knowledge about the underground world. If he didn't even know Chen Tian's name, wouldn't that be very painful?
"Brother Chen, what's wrong?" Wu Shun's expression sank and he put the wine up. Then he waved his hand and asked the other crew member to open a secret wall at the bottom of the cabin.
The boatman was also a clever man, otherwise Wu Shun would not have been chosen by Chen Tian to come to the Golden Triangle with Chen Tian. He understood with just a look. After opening the secret wall quickly, he took out a double-tube hunting rifle from it.
It is called a hunting rifle, but it is actually a folk local gun. If you shoot it, you have to reload it. Now, it is considered an old antique when you take it out. Generally, no one uses this to play with guns.
But Wu Shun and other people in the ship gang were not underground gangsters who licked blood on the edge of the knife, but were actually doing regular business. Naturally, they would not buy pistols, rifles, etc. In fact, putting such a group on the ship was purely for self-defense.
"What are you going to be so stupid? Give me the guy." Wu Shun said to the crew member.
Who knew that the guy shook his head, "Boss Boss, you're here, I'll do it."
It turns out that there is only such a dirt gun on it. So if Wushun takes it, the crew will not have to take it. If the crew takes it, Wushun will not take it. But no matter who takes it, he will undoubtedly stand on the front line, so the danger is naturally needless to say.
Seeing that the crew was about to walk to the bow of the boat with a gun, Wu Shun stood up and grabbed him, roaring in a low voice: "Bitch, the hair is not growing, I know how to play with this guy. Stay in the cabin. If there is something wrong, jump into the river and hide it immediately."
The crew member was helpless and was snatched away by Wu Shun. Speaking of the crew member, his name was "Xiao Qi", and the one on the bow was "Xiao Wu". Both names were nicknames, and they were all called out together for the sake of convenience.
Chen Tian sat aside, smiling at the scene without saying a word. Judging from the performance of Wu Shun and Xiao Qi, the boat gang is still good under Wu Shun's management. At least the brothers in the gang are loyal and will not lose their links at critical moments, which is enough.
"Brother Wu, don't be so nervous. If you really want to talk about anything, put that guy away first, it's so eye-catching." Chen Tiandao.
"It wouldn't have been the case before, but I've been so nervous recently." Wu Shun said, putting the earth gun in his hand aside and covering it with a piece of tart cloth.
Chen Tian naturally understood that a legitimate businessman would be nervous when encountering this matter. Especially recently, it is indeed not peaceful here.
After a while, those who came from the shore had already arrived by the river. Because the lights on the boat were shining, the movements of those people could be clearly seen.
After a rough estimate, the number of people was about fourteen or fifteen. When they arrived at the shore, they immediately picked up guns at Chen Tian and others' ships. Those were real guns, including pistols and semi-automatic ones.
"Let the boat come over. Don't think about running, unless you don't plan to walk this line in the future." A guy on the shore said coldly in a stiff Chinese language.
Due to the special geographical environment here, these people survive on this river, and most of the people walking on this river are Chinese cargo ships. It is not surprising that these people can speak a few Chinese language.
It’s really a pity to say. He’s talking about foreign languages when he’s doing robbery!
Hearing the people on the shore, the boss of the ship, Wu Shun, stood at the bow of the boat and said, "Brothers, we are not here to run the boat this time, there is no goods on the boat. Please ask a few people for some wine. Don't think it's too little."
While saying that, Wu Shun asked the crew to push the boat over. In fact, if Wu Shun really drove the boat away at this time, the people on the shore might not be able to catch up, but even though he escaped this disaster, it would be equivalent to completely offending the group of people to death.
This is extremely unwise for those who run business. Because Wu Shun knows that these guys on the shore have no reason to say. If you run away this time, they will not have the patience to wait until the next time they catch you. They will take revenge on every Chinese cargo ship that has passed by without any purpose.
These revenges do not necessarily mean killers who use knives and guns. Sometimes the protection fee is doubled, assaulting crew members, etc. For example, sometimes one box of goods can be passed, but the next time two boxes or three boxes cannot be let go.
It is precisely for this reason that anyone from the Boat Gang will not leave if they encounter such a thing. In that case, it will leave trouble for their fellow workers. If they meet some people who do not belong to the Boat Gang, the Boat Gang will also stand out. Otherwise, your special lady will run away once and will never walk on this waterway again, but what should the big guy from the Boat Gang do?
Therefore, 99% of all cargo ships walking on this waterway will join the boat gang. Otherwise, if your boat wants to walk here, you must give the boat a lecture. This lecture means that you can spend money to hire a boat gang to follow, or you can directly use the boat gang to help you transport cargo.
Although this point is a bit domineering, as if the entire waterway was monopolized by the boat gang. But there is nothing to do about it. If life is at stake, wouldn’t it be a mess without some rules?
Of course, if it were ships from other countries, the ships would naturally not be able to control them. Similarly, if ships from other countries offend the group of guys on the shore, those guys would not take revenge on the Chinese ships.
As the saying goes, traveling is like a mountain. These are all the ways to travel on a boat. Chen Tian didn’t know much, but he really understood it. After all, everyone is just to make a living, and it is not easy for everyone. Just like the boss of the boat, if his son is gone, his wife has also entered a sanatorium. Is it easy?
The ship gradually landed. During this period, Chen Tian and the assassin kept paying attention to the movements on the shore, but the two did not say anything and asked the boss of the ship to negotiate everything. If it could go smoothly, give some money, and there was no need to find excitement here for such a small matter.
As soon as the ship landed, two or three guys on the shore immediately came on board. The remaining people still pointed guns at Wushun, Chen Tian and others.
"Brothers, there is really no goods on the ship. Can you give me some convenience today?" Wu Shun said, and had already taken out a red envelope from his pocket and handed it over.
This thing is indispensable before leaving the boat. If you can't meet these evil spirits in the middle, it's luck. But if you encounter them, the red envelope may work.
Wushun is an old man on this waterway, so he will naturally not forget this.
The guy took the red envelope and tore it apart on the spot and pulled out the money. Chen Tian saw it very clearly. The thick stack may be at least a few thousand yuan.
It’s a big deal for a while? If you meet four or five times along the way, then a ship of freight will be like running away in vain. A tens of thousands of yuan will be thrown to these beasts in vain!
