The seventh day of the seventh month of the twenty-third year of Zhaohua.

Begging Festival!

This should have been the time when the girls who had not yet left the pavilion would gather under the moon and thread needles to the moon, or when the women would place tributes and pray to the heavens, tell their wishes, and ask for their sons and begging for love.

But on this evening, a heavy rain fell in Guangling City.

The rain was a huge disappointment to the long-awaited ladies and unmarried men who were also looking forward to it.

The girls, who were ready to show off some needlework in front of the unmarried men, could only look out the window at the rain, and could only think melancholy in their hearts about a certain young man they had once taken a fancy to.

The men had already prepared the poems, and they wanted to get the purse embroidered by some girl, but this guy also came to naught.

But this rain made Yang Sixian and Li Chenan feel that it was the right time.

The two of them set off for Linfeng in this rain, and it was still Wu Xichen who set up the car.

"Have you been to that place?"

In the carriage, Yang Sixian asked Li Chen'an this question.

Li Chenan shook his head and said, with a wry smile: "Speaking of which, Old Yang, you don't believe it, I haven't understood Guangling City yet, let alone the Linfeng Crossing." ”

Yang Sixian glanced at Li Chen'an and confirmed that the information he had collected about Li Chen'an was true.

It's just that he's a little confused.

Because from getting along with Li Chen'an in the past few days, this kid is a good person, and he is extremely skilled in dealing with human feelings, where is there half a rumored fool!

This kid has changed too much, could it be that his past is really pretending?

If this is the case, it can show that this kid is extremely enduring, and the city government is more than ordinary teenagers, I don't know how much.

But it's also a good thing.

The Ichthyosaurus will need such people.

Prime Minister Ji also prefers such people.

"Linfeng crosses that place, the old man has been there three times this time. ”

"It's a mixed place, but there's no denying it's a good place!"

"Chaos, that's actually a good thing. Many people are afraid of chaos, so they will avoid it. But in the old man's opinion, there are many things to be gained in chaos. ”

"For example, silver, for example, for power, for example, to establish a new order in the chaos, and so on. ”

"Your predecessor, also Song Yuanping, before he died, the headquarters gave him a task to collect the forces of Linfengdu, so as to master the Cao Yun from Guangling. ”

"Caoyun is very important!"

"From Rinkado to the north, you can reach Tamaki City in Kyoto through the Tamahiro Canal. ”

"To the south, you can go to the waterfront city at the mouth of the Yangtze River. ”

"From Linshui City to the west, you can enter Shuzhou and ...... to the east There are many counties along the way until you reach the East China Sea. ”

Yang Sixian shut up when he said this, but Li Chenan understood the meaning of his words.

"Old Yang, this kid will handle this matter properly!"

Yang Sixian grinned, "But the Fish Dragon Society can't provide you with much silver!"

"Silver, this kind of thing, the kid will find a way...... It's just that this matter has to wait for the kid to come back from Kyoto. ”

Yang Sixian nodded, "If you really do this, the old man will definitely ask for credit for you at the headquarters!"

"Thank you Yang Lao for your cultivation!"

In the carriage, listening to the crackling rain beating on the roof of the carriage, the old man and the young talked happily.

But at this moment, in the backyard of Guangling Mansion, Cai Yutang was full of sadness.

"It's a long way to Shuzhou, and the lower officials heard that the people in Shuzhou are fierce and lack education...... It's a lot of work!"

Liu Chu smiled slightly, slapped open the mud seal of a painting screen spring, poured two cups, and handed one to Cai Yutang.

"Nor can we look at this issue unilaterally. ”

"Shuzhou is chaotic, and there are also benefits of chaos. There is chaos to be ruled, and there is governance to achieve political achievements, but I think it is much better than staying in Guangling City. ”

"It's you...... Huo Chuanming doesn't know if he can tolerate you, after all, everyone in this yamen knows that you are my person. ”

Cai Yutang took a sip of the wine glass, and then said cautiously: "So the adults should take the upper and lower officials!"

"But you are different from me, your family is in Guangling City, what about me...... His wife died early, his son died at an early age, and he was alone and had no worries wherever he went. ”

"Xia Guan can take his wife and children with him!"

Liu Chu looked at Cai Yutang, "That place in Shuzhou is really not as prosperous as Guangling!"

"Xia Guan doesn't care about the prosperity here. ”

"Got it figured?"

"You've figured it out!"

"Then you go back and pack up, early tomorrow morning, let's go to Linfengdu together!"

Cai Yutang was overjoyed and hugged his fists and saluted: "Thank you, sir!"

"Don't thank me, maybe...... You'll be a big surprise when you go out!"

Cai Yutang was stunned, but Liu Chu did not explain.

......

......

This rain is getting heavier and heavier.

When Li Chenan and Yang Sixian arrived at Linfengdu, it was already late.

It's actually a town.

The town is very prosperous because of the dock here, but that prosperity is on days when there is no wind and rain, and there are few pedestrians in the streets of this town today.

But the teahouses and restaurants in the streets and alleys are still open, and the air lights in front of the door are still on.

Those teahouses were clean at this time, but the business of those wine shops was very good.

"Although there are very few boats from Linfeng Ferry to Yujing City because of the bandits in Shuangjiao Lake, there are still many boats going down. ”

The carriage was still moving forward in the rain on the bluestone road of the street, Yang Sixian lifted the curtain and looked out, and said:

"Most of the people in the liquor shops are boatmen or porters on the docks. ”

"They're actually from certain gangs, like the two most famous gangs in Linfengdu...... One is called the Four Seas Gang, and the other is called Huanxitang. ”

"The entrance of the Four Seas Gang is in the alley of Xiaodong Street, and the entrance of the hall of Huanxi Hall is in the alley of Xiaobei Street. ”

"The Four Seas Gang has the most ships in their hands, with seventy-six large and small. ”

"Huanxitang has the most porters, and the loading and unloading of goods at the wharf is basically controlled by Huanxitang. ”

The two are now evenly matched, and the peace that seems to be peaceful has been achieved. ”

Yang Sixian lowered the curtain and looked at Li Chenan, "There are a few good players in these two gangs, if you want to rein in these forces...... You'll have to recruit more useful people!"

Li Chen'an nodded, and there was a fierce color in his eyes, "Elder Yang, don't worry, these people under these gangs are all asking for a bite to eat, I think, who becomes their master is probably not too important to them." ”

"Another day, the boy will come here to see it in person, and he will definitely give you a satisfactory result when the time comes. ”

Yang Sixian smiled slightly, Li Chenan didn't say that he was dead, but his attitude showed his determination.

This is good.

The carriage came to a halt outside an inn.

Li Chenan got out of the carriage and came to Yang Sixian's side with an oil-paper umbrella.

opened the door, helped Yang Sixian get out of the carriage, and the two walked into the inn with an umbrella.

They did not notice a woman wearing a cloak and a hat on the roof opposite the inn.

She is Murong He.

She was watching their backs disappear into the inn.

She frowned slightly, and after a moment, she suddenly drew her sword and stabbed a sword behind her backhand.

A hand reached out in the night, just in time for the tip of her sword.

"Shh......h

"Why don't you accompany Su Muxin, what are you doing here?"
