In the flower hall of the Qi family's mansion, Jian Dahu stood in front of the window with his hands in hand.

Mr. Mu had already waited for a pillar of incense, and Jian Dahu had also stood for a pillar of incense, and no one in this room spoke, so there was silence.

Mr. Mu did not hide everything he saw, what Jian Dahu has done in Changpingguan over the years is enough to be called loyal and brave, in those days in Dingbian County, the Jian family was also very good to himself, Jian Qiushan was worried about government affairs all day long, almost to the point of being unable to untie his clothes, and Mr. Mu saw it in his eyes. After experiencing the initial anger, Mr. Mu still chose to trust the Jane family, and now he wanted to figure out how the mark appeared on those goods?

"Brother Li Qing," Jian Dahu is still used to calling Mr. Mu's real name, but it is just a gentleman, Jian Dahu doesn't care too much, "I have to bother you to make a trip, go to the Dragon King Gang, and help Jian figure out where these iron ores come from and how they are transported." ”

Slightly stunned, Mr. Mu thought that Jian Dahu would lead the troops to directly suppress Youtan Temple, how could a character like Jian Dahu tolerate the enemy Chen Bing's couch? Unexpectedly, Jian Dahu opened his mouth to let him go to the Dragon King Gang to investigate the goods. It seems that Jian Dahu still cares more about the reputation of the family, thinking that this is also human nature. Mr. Mu didn't say anything more, and one of the things he used to hear his father say was, "Military orders are like mountains."

Along the Cangji River from Hexia Town to Heshang Town, there are 41 large and small towns on both sides of the river, with a population of nearly one million, and almost no one does not know the existence of the Dragon King Gang. But the strange thing is that so many people know about the Dragon King Gang, there are at least hundreds or thousands of ships throughout the year, and countless caravans have to pay silver money to the Dragon King Gang, but no one knows where the Dragon King Gang is? Who is the Dragon King in the Dragon King Gang?

Mr. Mu didn't go to the Dragon King Gang, he took Mu Xiaohua directly to Shajiadian, the river management office is located there, this is not the only river management office in the entire 1,300 miles of waters, but it is the most important one, the military order is like a mountain, the military situation is like fire, Mr. Mu took Mu Xiaohua and didn't sleep all night, just dawn, the two people have come to the outside of the town.

Shajiadian is surrounded by the river and is the only town built on the island on the entire Cangji River, where the Cangji River is divided into two waterways, the left one is deeper and more rapid, and the right one is relatively gentle. Many ships have to dock at Shajia Wharf to record the type, weight and quantity of goods transported at the river management office, and then wait for the dispatch of the river management office to continue moving left and right.

Mr. Mu's siblings crossed the river on a ferry and got off at Shajia Wharf. There are many ships coming and going every day at Shajia Wharf, and the cargo and passengers handled are the largest among the 23 wharves of all sizes in the 1,300-mile waters. Therefore, many inns, taverns, cart shops, foot shops, and tooth shops are opened near the wharf, which is the most prosperous, noisy and well-informed place in the whole Shajiadian. Mr. Mu decided to find an inn nearby to stay and see if he could find some useful news.

Shajia Laopu is the largest inn near the wharf, and the location is also the best, Mr. Mu can see the freight yard of Shajia Wharf by standing in front of the window of the room on the second floor, and the view is extremely broad.

The brother and sister closed their eyes and breathed for a moment, then got up and went downstairs, they didn't have time to rest, fortunately, they were all people who had cultivated in their bodies, and they were in their youth, and they didn't sleep all night, as long as they breathed for a while, they were refreshed again.

"Little bunny, see that I don't pick your skin. Before he could go downstairs, Mr. Mu heard shouting and scolding from downstairs, and many guests looked under the railing, where a middle-aged man with a big belly was chasing a sloppy teenager all over the house. The boy was too flexible, and the man was too clumsy, and he didn't catch a piece of the boy's clothes when he saw that the man's face was sweating.

"Zhou Papi, if you want to pick the skin of the master, you are still a little worse, it is better to save your strength and go home to pick your mother-in-law's skin. The boy ran and shouted loudly. The people in the hall laughed together when they heard the young man speak, and from time to time someone was fanning the flames as if they were coaxing, and the second child who was busy in the hall was also standing aside to watch the excitement at this time, and he didn't mean to take care of it at all.

"Little bunny, don't think I can't do anything with you. The man named Zhou Papi held on to the table and gasped, "If you can't take out the ten taels of silver today, Lao Tzu will use your sister to pay off the debt." ”

Hearing Zhou Papi say this, the young man's figure suddenly froze, and there was no smile on his face, a pair of eyes were staring at the man, and his fists were already clenched tightly. UU Library

Zhou Paopi was stared at by the young man, and he was a little panicked for no reason, "What's wrong with me? How can I be scared by a child? What can he do as a poor boy who is bitter? Why should I be afraid of him? How can he pay back ten taels of silver?" Thinking about Xiao Yezi's fair and delicate skin, Zhou Papi's courage surged up at once.

"How's it going? Scared?" Zhou Papi sneered, playing with the wrench in his hand, it was the wrench of green pine jade, it cost Zhou Papi fifty taels of silver, whenever he encountered something, regardless of whether he was happy or unhappy, Zhou Papi liked to fiddle with it, as if as long as he touched this wrench that was as smooth and delicate as a girl's skin, Zhou Papi had the motivation to continue to struggle.

"The surname is Zhou, the ten taels of silver will be returned to you, but if you dare to touch the leaves, the master will fight with you, it's a big deal, we have a life for a life, anyway, the master has had enough days like this. The young man didn't run away again, staring at Zhou Papi, saying word by word. Many of the people in the hall knew this boy, in fact, there were very few people who didn't know the boy at this pier, but there were many more people who knew Zhou Papi. No one doubts what the young man said, the most important thing in the dental shop is credit, words must count, this young man is the most well-informed tooth lang in the entire dental shop. The big guys all know what kind of goods Zhou Papi is, and they inevitably sympathize with the teenager in their hearts, and there are a few men dressed as five big and three thick porters who intentionally or unintentionally leaned on Zhou Papi's side, after all, the young man is still young, and it is inevitable that he will suffer if he moves.

"Zhang Xiaodao, everyone knows that you eat in the tooth shop, what you say can't be counted, since you promised to pay back, this master is not a calculating person, so let's give you three days, three days later, you will still be here, you pay the money, let's settle the bill, if you can't pay the money, hehe!" Zhou Papi sneered a few times and turned out of the inn and disappeared into the crowd on the street.

"Little knife, how can you owe him ten taels of silver?" Seeing that Zhou Peel was gone, the porter-looking men surrounded him and asked with concern.

The boy was silent, he couldn't say that it was because he wanted to treat his sister, who was very sick and strange, and every ten years in the middle of the night it was like a different person, and his sister was gentle and quiet during the day, but at night she would become manic. At first, the performance was not so obvious, but recently it has become more and more manic, and he has become ill, and he doesn't even know the teenager, only scratching and biting. The young man had no choice but to take his sister to see the disease secretly, saying that he was secretly seeing the disease, because the young man did not want his sister's condition to be known, so he could only go to the Shuanghe Forest Farm, twenty miles away from here, to find Lang Zhong to see the disease. The people there are not familiar with the place, and the people in the forest farm are wild, and I didn't look at it a few times, and the family money accumulated by the teenager in the past few years was spent completely, and there was no way, so I borrowed money. But these teenagers don't plan to say it, as long as they talk to one person, it is possible for more people to know. This risky teenager is not willing to take it, and he does not dare to take it.

Seeing that the young man left without saying a word, several men sighed, and the people in the hall who watched the excitement were no longer lively to see, and they all paid their hearts, eating when they should eat, chatting when they should chat, Xiao Er also went to be busy, and the whole hall returned to a noisy and warm atmosphere.

Mr. Mu didn't eat at the old shop of the Sha family, he heard Zhou Papi mention that the boy was mixed in the tooth shop, and many people in this hall seemed to know the boy, needless to say, this child should be mixed well, and he wanted to inquire about the news, isn't such a person just right?

Behind the young man unhurriedly followed, turned two streets, said to be streets, in fact they were just two dirt roads, on both sides were some low houses, this was the time for breakfast, many families because of the cramped living, all took the stove outside to make a fire to cook. People come and go on the dirt road, and the smoke and dust mixed with the aroma of white porridge and noisy human voices remind people every moment that this is the most real world.

"Little knife, what are you doing in such a hurry to leave early in the morning?" an aunt beckoned to the boy while stirring in the pot with a spoon.

"Knife, bring two boiled eggs for your sister, the little girl is just when she grows up, she has to make up for it. A young woman who had just cooked breakfast, saw the young man passing by, and hurriedly picked up two eggs from the bowl, and rushed forward in three steps and two steps, and stuffed them into the young man's pocket.

The boy greeted and thanked him all the way, and walked into a courtyard at the end of the street.

"Knife, have you thought about it?" Mr. Ledger, who was sitting behind the counter, did not put down the pen immediately, this child is very sensible on weekdays, there is nothing to do, as long as he passes by, he will bring him some pastries and drinks, although it is not a good thing, and the teenager can't afford to buy any good things, but it warms people's hearts. Today, the boy wants to take on such a deal, and the bookkeeper has worked in the tooth shop all his life, and knows that this kind of trade can indeed make a lot of money, but it may also sell his own life. He knew that the young man was in trouble, hesitated for a while, stood up and walked out of the counter.

"You're waiting here, and I'm not allowed to go anywhere until I come back. Mr. Bookkeeper had never been so serious, and the young man was a little stunned, and nodded involuntarily.
