After some tossing and turning in the governor's yamen, after getting Wei Zhigao, he settled in Chen Wei's mansion. solved a major event, and my heart suddenly became much easier, so I slept very soundly this night, that is, even the incident of Miss Liao Jiajia, who had been depressed, was left behind. So that it was very difficult to get up the next day, after all, in the winter, who wants to get up from the warm bed?

But although I don't want to, I still have to get up. Although Hangzhou is a good place, Duan Chong does not want to stay for a long time, after all, his family background is in the city of Nanjing, and it will soon be the end of the year, Duan Chong can count on a good year. And today it was agreed that Liao Xulin would do the right thing, so he had to get up anyway.

drove the carriage to Liao's mansion, and Liao Xulin was already waiting at the door, but he still looked at Duan Zhong coldly and didn't say a word. In this regard, Duan Zhong was also quite helpless, but it was still important to get down to business, so he couldn't take care of it so much.

Duan Zhong went to Chen Weiwei's place this time, deliberately asked for the account book, compared the merchants who suddenly reduced the tax and silver, and checked with Chen Weiwei, and then determined a few targets to conquer. Among these merchants, there are those who do tea business, those who open casinos and green houses, and those who do brocade and rouge, those who do restaurants, and those who do pawnshops.

And the effect that Duan Chong hoped for on this trip was to make a quick decision and get it done at one time, so when he came to visit, Duan Chong directly asked Liao Xulin to make his identity clear. And the first few merchants are still very knowledgeable, although this Liao Xulin is a prisoner of the imperial court, but since he dares to show up, he is not afraid of the people of the government to arrest him, but this Liao Gongzi appeared, which represents the meaning of Liao Zhangjin, although Liao Zhangjin is no longer the governor of Jiangnan, but he still has great strength and power in his hands, and it is extremely easy to make these merchants bankrupt, so it is Liao Xulin at first glance, and he responded without any hesitation. In half a day, I have already run four or five, which can be said to have gained a lot, if it is at this speed, within three days, all the things in Jiangnan can be done safely.

But in the afternoon, Duan Zhong finally met the nail household-Cai family. The so-called businessmen are naturally profit-seeking. Obviously, once the tax is not paid, there will be a lot more silver, and Liao Zhangjin is in Nanjing at the moment, and now Liao Xulin is a prisoner of the imperial court, so naturally some people are willing to take risks and not buy it. This Cai family is one of them.

Cai's family, doing the sound of the casino, came to be a tyrant in Hangzhou, with a bit of their own power, the ancestor of the head of the family Cai Zhitao is a founding member of Nanliang, although later the family road was dilapidated and began to do business, but in Hangzhou City has always been a bit of prestige, that is, Liao Zhangjin is also very polite to it. And considering that Cai Zhitao's ancestor was the founder of Southern Liang, he still had some prestige in the imperial court, so Liao Xulin advised Duan Chong to let go of the Cai family and not to care. However, Duan Zhong naturally would not agree, even if the Cai family was a tiger's butt, Duan Zhong would open the chrysanthemum and take a closer look, how many catties of goods were stuffed in it.

And when the two arrived at Cai's house, after Liao Xulin made his identity clear, Cai Zhitao actually came to a dead and refused to admit it, saying that his business was clean and clean, and he never paid a penny less in taxes. also took Liao Xulin, the identity of a prisoner in the imperial court, and said that if Duan Chong and the others did not leave, they would have to report to the official.

When Duan Zhong heard this, he immediately became angry, and directly pulled out the sword on his waist and put it on the opponent's neck. How do you know that this Cai Zhitao was originally born as a ruffian, and he was not afraid of this threat at all, and he spit out a few dirty words in his mouth from time to time. Duan Zhong has never been a patient master, so he directly chopped off one of Cai Zhitao's little fingers, and made him cry for mercy from his father, ran into the house and took out all the account books in the secret, promising to pay no less than a penny of silver in the future, and Duan Chong left satisfied. After all, although Cai Zhitao is the founder of the country, but after all, he has fallen into the middle of the family, and there is no one in the court, and he is just a local snake in Hangzhou City, so naturally he can't enter Duan Chong's eyes, and the reason why Duan Chong wants to be so ruthless is to show Liao Xulin, so that he can clearly realize that I, Duan Chong, am not a soft persimmon, nor is it the object of your petty nature. You played with me in Miss Liao Jiajia's boudoir in the house, if there is a next time, I may not have such a good temper.

So in general, out of Cai's Mansion, Duan Chong's mood was still extremely happy, because Duan Chong was counting on such a nail household, so that he could sprinkle and pretend to be horizontal, so as to disperse the resentment of being caught cheating. However, the Cai family only needs one to be enough, and if there is a second one, Duan Chong's mood will not be so good. However, in the afternoon, Duan Chong really encountered one or two nail households again, so that he had to repeat his old tricks and strike ruthlessly, which made the other party compromise and beg for mercy.

So much so that one day later, Duan Chong's mood was not happy, after all, Duan Chong was not a crazy person, and he didn't like to cut off other people's fingers if he had nothing to do. However, in this way, the efficiency of the work has been greatly improved, and this day is enough to visit the largest households, and the set task has been half completed.

So when Duan Chong walked out of the last merchant's mansion by touching his nose as it got dark, he was generally in a good mood. So much so that he invited Liao Xulin to the outer building to drink some wine and eat some food, but Liao Xulin obviously did not sell Duan Chong's face, and chose to go home, such a request Duan Chong naturally could not be stopped, so he sent Jiang Mingchen to send Liao Xulin back to his house, and by the way, he protected him in secret. I went to the outer building alone to drink and eat Dongpo meat.

In the past two days in Hangzhou, except for Zongzi who will appear as a coachman when he is in a hurry, he will not be able to see his shadow during the rest of the time, which is even more mysterious than Jiang Mingchen, the third assassin in the world. However, Duan Zhong knew that Zongzi must be watching him somewhere, and this was enough.

After drinking wine in the building outside the building, eating the vinegar fish and Dongpo meat of the West Lake, the sky was already dark. This deep winter night came very early, so Duan Zhong didn't care. A man walked out of the lobby of the restaurant and paced along the road.

In the city of Hangzhou, Duan Zhong experienced many things, such as the drunken red mansion and Xiao Beiping's poetry, suppressed all the Jiangnan talents, and also saw the first oiran in the south of the Yangtze River, Li Shishi, which led to a series of follow-up events, including those two paintings. Thinking of this, Duan Zhong couldn't help but be a little excited, and unconsciously walked to the door of the Drunken Red Mansion. However, Duan Zhong of this building will naturally not go in, because Master Li is no longer here, but in the "heaven and earth" of Nanjing City, there is no such a top-brand Oiran, although the drunken Red Mansion quickly brought out a few new Oiran, but the popularity is still a lot less than before.

Looking at the bright lights in the buildings and the endless flow of people on the street, Duan Zhong couldn't help but sigh that life without curfew was really beautiful, and Hangzhou City was really a paradise on earth. However, this beautiful life is not blessed to enjoy today, and tomorrow I will continue to do business with Liao Xulin, so I can only rush back. Tonight, Duan Zhong still has to live in Chen Wei's mansion, and today's harvest is also to be explained.

After all, the city of Hangzhou is not bright everywhere, so some of the alleys are still pitch black, Duan Zhong walked through them quickly, and suddenly felt that these alleys had a very familiar feeling, and then remembered that this alley was the alley he ran through when he first arrived in Hangzhou and met Xiao Beiping. However, Duan Zhong still had an extremely familiar feeling lingering in his heart at this moment, and that was the feeling of being hunted down.

Duan Zhong's head shook suddenly, and the cold air came from all directions, and there seemed to be countless pairs of eyes staring straight at him in the dark night. It's a bad feeling.

And at this time, a black shadow grabbed towards Duan Chong, this shadow was extremely fast, and extremely weird, and suddenly a thought rose in Duan Chong's mind - ghost hand?

The reason why Duan Zhong had this thought was because the shadow that rushed towards him was like a pair of hands, but behind these hands, there were no arms attached.

Duan Zhong suddenly fell on his stomach, his whole body almost fell to the ground, and a cold light flew over his back, and immediately scraped a big hole in his thick clothes, and the cold wind poured wildly into his clothes. However, Duan Zhong didn't have that much time to think about clothes, because the ghost hand had already flown back. It was another very embarrassed lunge, and then he dodged again, and hurriedly stood up straight against the wall, looking around with great vigilance, but there was silence in the darkness, and nothing could be seen at all.

The cold sweat on Duan Chong's forehead dripped down, and it was very clear that this so-called ghost hand was an iron claw, connected by an iron chain, and the user only needed to inject force to throw it out, and it would have great power. This weapon is extremely strange, few people practice, but the power is extremely high, I have heard of it when I practiced swords, and I know that I only see it today.

Moreover, Duan Zhong knew that the method of this master who suddenly attacked him would definitely not be under Jiang Mingchen. Duan Zhong is now a martial arts master who is firmly standing in the middle of the second stage, but the other party can completely hide his movements in the dark, so that Duan Zhong is not aware of it in the slightest, there are only two possibilities for this situation.

First, the person who raided was a master in the dark like Jiang Mingchen;

Second, the martial arts cultivation of this raider was far above Duan Zhong.

No matter which possibility it is, Duan Zhong does not want to see it. And Duan Chong's most depressed thing at the moment is, where did Zongzi die?
