This Wiggins is also a money-grubber. He reaches out for money.

What kind of deposit? It sounds nice, but in fact it falls into his own pocket. If you give it out, you will definitely not get it back.

How to get it back?

By then, Sun Dingyuan had already landed in San Francisco. Wiggins was still in Hangzhou.

Could it be that the Americans in San Francisco would give Sun Dingyuan $5,000? It’s a dream.

When Sun Dingyuan and others landed, the Americans there did not extort them and asked for a landing fee.

No. It definitely will.

Landing fee must be paid.

All Chinese people who arrive on the other side of the ocean, as long as they do not have official status, will inevitably have to pay another amount of money.

Otherwise, if you are not familiar with the place where you were born, you will be blind and you will not know how you died.

At this moment, the other side of the ocean is still in a rough period like the "American West", where barbarism grows. The folk customs are "simple", everyone is equipped with a gun, and American-style settlements are used to solve problems when there is a disagreement. Most Chinese people have arrived

There are all bullied masters there.

After thinking for a while, Zhang Yong spoke, "Mr. Wiggins, where did we disembark in San Francisco? After we disembark, is our safety guaranteed?"

"Of course." Wiggins replied firmly, "We will send a telegram to San Francisco and have someone pick you up."

"After landing, don't you need to pay any more fees?"

"Of course not."

"Really?"

"How can you cooperate if you don't even believe us?"

"I'm sorry. I'm just asking. I'm worried that after arriving in San Francisco, we will need to spend a lot of money to get ashore smoothly."

"There is no such thing."

Wiggins categorically denied it, but he knew it was true.

All Chinese who arrive in San Francisco will be blackmailed by local people for money. This is inevitable.

If you don't have money, you will be beaten up. Then sent to do coolies, build railways, or mine. If anyone dares to resist, they will be killed directly. Then they will be thrown into the Pacific Ocean or thrown into a deep mine. It's basically impossible.

Nobody knows.

"Five thousand dollars is too much..."

"You don't have to give it. But I can't guarantee whether there will be any accidents on your way."

"All right……"

Zhang Yong pretended to be reluctant.

Five thousand dollars is not a small amount of money. It can buy an outdated Hawker-2 aircraft.

To be honest, the only reason why the air planning department was interested in the Curtiss Hawker-2 aircraft and the newly launched Hawker-3 aircraft was probably because they were cheap. If you buy aircraft from other companies, the same goes for

With the money, you can only buy fifty. But if you buy the Curtiss one, you can buy a hundred.

If one hundred planes are laid out, they will definitely look better than fifty!

If Chiang Kai-shek asked him how many planes the Air Force has, your answer of one hundred would definitely be more powerful than your answer of fifty.

Lao Jiang himself didn't know much about airplanes, so he couldn't always ask about his wife's affairs.

What if my wife is unhappy?

"Deposit."

Wiggins said again.

Song Fei turned to look at Zhang Yong.

All the banknotes he brought were snatched away by Zhang Yong.

If a deposit is required, Zhang Yong can only come up with it.

However, how could the banknote that fell into Zhang Yong's pocket be easily taken out?

Zhang Yong was already heartbroken that he had just lost Ding Furong's three million. At this moment, he would not be willing to part with even ten oceans. Let alone ten thousand?

"Mr. Wiggins, where is your promise?" Zhang Yong said calmly.

The other party didn't have a gun. He wasn't afraid.

There was actually a gun in the pawn shop, but it wasn't on the person's body.

Zhang Yong was confident that he was sure of victory against such a target without a gun.

No matter how fierce Wiggins is, he can't withstand the shooting of the Colt M1911 large-caliber pistol. If all seven rounds of 11.43 mm bullets are fired, a bear can be killed.

"What promise?" Wiggins' face began to look ugly.

"What you say is unfounded. We can't believe you." Zhang Yong calmly said, "At least, you should tell us when to get on the ship and what ship to get on. We can't know everything. Otherwise, you took it

If the money runs away, then we are trying to draw water from a bamboo basket but in vain."

"What do you want to know?"

"First, how do we leave Hangzhou."

"I will use the form of a caravan to hide you in the middle of the group."

"There are checks everywhere now..."

"I'm an American. You Chinese don't dare to check."

"What ship will we take when we get to the pier?"

"Our American freighter Goddess."

"However, as far as I know, there are no American merchant ships at the Qiantang River pier."

"Not yet. However, it will arrive in three days."

"In other words, we still need to wait three days."

"Three days will pass quickly."

"The place where we are currently hiding is not safe. I hope we can move to your pawn shop."

"no."

Wiggins decisively refused.

He knows what kind of person Sun Dingyuan is. He must not lead a wolf into the house.

Simply sending them out of Hangzhou is no problem. However, if they are allowed to stay in Asia Hotel, there will be endless troubles.

No one knows what will happen when that group of robbers (bandits) get here.

He has dealt with Sun Dingyuan and knows Sun Dingyuan's bottom line very well. That guy has no bottom line at all.

"It's not safe where we are hiding now." Zhang Yong frowned.

"That's your business." Wiggins still refused, "We are only responsible for sending you away."

"We can add money."

"no."

Wiggins still refused.

The tone is quite strong.

Zhang Yong then judged that this guy definitely knew Sun Dingyuan and probably knew the other person very well.

Otherwise, Wiggins would not have been so decisive.

"We have five more British people over there. You can trust them..."

"Shut up! You're talking about Greco and the others. They are all warmongers and hooligans. I don't want to deal with them."

"Mr. Wiggins, you are exaggerating..."

"I'm sorry. I will never meet Greco and the others. They are all pirates..."

"All right."

Zhang Yong pretended to be helpless.

At the same time, I wrote down the name Greg. These five British people seem to be a little evil?

Wiggins actually mentioned that they were pirates. This is interesting.

Pirates. No wonder they can disappear mysteriously.

For pirates, there is really no risk in Hangzhou Bay. They can easily escape by diving into the water.

It seems that the five British people that Kong Fansong was worried about had an accident were simply not coming from the right way. They just took a smooth sailing to Hangzhou. Then they quietly left by water to find Sun Dingyuan. Kong Fansong thought that something strange had happened.
