Two days passed in the blink of an eye, and it had been ten days since the Shuaifu army entered the city of Guangzhou. By the time the city had gradually returned to its former bustle, ships laden with goods continued to enter and leave after the sea ban was lifted, and trade resumed in various ports and markets. Most of the merchants in the city felt that business was much better than in previous years, and the unscrupulous giants who had monopolized the market in the past were almost swept away, and the killing and exile made room for them to no longer have to rely on them, and they could get a piece of the prosperous overseas trade.

In addition, everyone found that the army of the Shuaifu was different from the armies of other imperial courts, not only was the military discipline strict and there was no offense, but also the business was very fair, and it was never forced to buy and sell. In addition, the strong purchasing power of the army also gave them the opportunity to make money, and they were simply like a wicked man who could not fill up, and the military supplies such as cloth, medicinal materials, copper and iron, leather, and sulfur, and war horses were as much as they wanted, so that some items were out of stock or their prices skyrocketed.

What is surprising is that the price of grain is relatively stable, and the army of Shuai Fu only buys about 10% of the grain on the market, which does not cause much fluctuation in the huge stock market, and also makes the people's livelihood basically not affected. And what made them excited was that the Shuai Mansion began to auction off the houses and shops that were confiscated, which were all good locations for every inch of land. But at first, everyone was still a little worried, worried that the Shuai Mansion was intent on collecting money, but they didn't expect to be bold, and several foreign merchants took pictures of the best shops on the dock one after another, and they all made successful deals, so everyone couldn't sit still.

A series of actions by the Shuai Mansion are like a shot in the arm for the increasingly depressed city of Guangzhou, and there are frequent transactions in the market, and there has been a rare prosperity in the past ten years. But some people can't get involved, and are still speculating about their fate with anxiety, and they are worried about whether they will see the sun tomorrow......

The prisoners captured by the Marshal Army were imprisoned on two sandbars facing each other outside the city, one for the prisoners of the captured soldiers. A used to detain captured rebels and collaborators. The prison on the sandbar is surrounded by a fence, less than 50 meters from the river, and the prison inside is nothing more than a straw hut built of local materials, which is more like a sheepfold without a forest of sentry shelters and patrolling soldiers.

The officers and soldiers captured in the past few days have been sent away one after another, and a group of them have been killed and exiled on this small island. The day before yesterday, another batch of 'donations' paid by family members was released. Now there were less than two or three hundred people left on the crowded island, which seemed much more spacious, and as long as they did not leave the fence, the soldiers did not interfere and acquiesced to their free movement.

"Leader Hu, when do you think we can leave?" It was nearly noon, and the weather was getting hotter, and more than a dozen prisoners were sitting under a big tree to cool off. A middle-aged man wearing a long shirt as a staff outfit, but his clothes were already stained after being locked up for many days. With a sour smell, he spit out the grass roots in his mouth and asked the guy next to him who was half-lying on the grass.

"Lying on the ground tiger, don't fucking scream, die!" The surnamed Hu looked around nervously, and scolded in a low voice with a hideous face.

"Okay, okay, shopkeeper Hu, Brother Hu, kill what should be killed, and let go of what should be released. What does it mean to keep the rest of us? It's not like you want more money! The guy called the Lying Tiger said with a disapproving smile.

"Don't think that if you wear a long shirt, you really become an outsider, others don't know what you are. The Sprinkle family doesn't know yet. They locked us up for the sake of money, the Shuai Mansion only copied the money, and the Sun family received more than 10 million, how can we look down on these small families! The surnamed Hu pouted and said.

Hu Sheng was originally a bandit who fell into the grass, but a few years ago, he made a fortune and settled in Guangzhou, bought a Zhuangzi and opened a wine shop, and became a trader. And that lying tiger is also a good person. His surname is Qin Mingbao, and when he was young, he was brave and ruthless, and he was killed and confiscated. Later, when the Mongols went south and the main general rebelled, he killed his own commander and took a group of people hostage, grabbed a ship, and fled to the sea, surviving by extorting passing merchant ships. In a few years, he also made a lot of money, and became a rich man after whitewashing his identity. seems to be out of the rivers and lakes, but the people who are involved in the rivers and lakes know that they have not broken off contact with their brothers in the old days.

"Could someone have missed our bottom line, and the government knows what we have done? Fang Sheng in the east of the city was taken away last night, and he hasn't come back now, won't he ...... it" Qin Bao touched his forehead and said. There had been tattoos there, and although they had been washed away with secret medicine, he would still remember the past when his heart was weak.

"No, it won't. The Shuaifu army that entered the city is headed by the king of Wei, and the guest army will not stay for long, and the people killed are all traitors and evils, where can we take care of tracking down our small fish and shrimp, but I think we still have some oil and water and want to boil slowly, as long as we grit our teeth, they can't do anything, sooner or later they have to be released! Hu Sheng said with a sneer.

"It's the best, but I always feel that it's not that steady, it doesn't seem to be that simple, otherwise a loser like the Lin family will stay here to do something!" Qin Bao looked at a young man nesting in the grass not far away and said, "If this coward wants to vote for the Mongols, everyone will want it, and there is only a shell left at home, and there is no money to ask for." And his courage just got into a fight, molested the woman from a good family, couldn't do anything big, and peed his pants before he was afraid. ”

"Damn, yes!" Hu Sheng was also alert when he thought about it, "Don't cry, kid from the Lin family, come here, I have something to ask you!" ”

"What's the matter with the two big brothers?" The man got up, patted the blades of grass on his body, and pulled the placket of his shirt and said with a bitter face.

"Damn, wipe the cat urine off your face, and the sprinkler family can't see you like a coward!" Hu Sheng scolded.

"Don't scare him, Lin Gongzi went to the hall last night, what about the two people who went with you?" Qin Bao patted the stone beside him with a pleasant face, motioning for him to sit down and say.

"Thank you, Brother Qin!" Lin Gongzi wiped the snot and tears on his face with his sleeve, sat down flattered and said, he knew that these two were both characters who had the final say on their respective territories.

"Tell me, where is so much nonsense!" Hu Sheng glanced at him in disgust and urged.

"I was really scared to death last night, Meng Yuanwai in the north of the city must have known that the two brothers must know it, it was a character who had to shake three times when he stomped on the north wall, and was beaten to death on the spot!" Lin Gongzi said with palpitations.

"Meng Batian was killed, why?" Hu Sheng turned over and sat up when he heard this, grabbed Lin Gongzi's shirt and asked.

"It's far away, I can't hear it clearly...... As if he wanted him to promise something, but he refused, the man became angry and ordered to be killed with a cane on the spot, and Meng Yuanwai was beaten to death. Lin Gongzi stammered...... (To be continued.) )
