Qu Wu returned to Caiyun Mansion after meeting with the three beggar gang leaders of Gusu in Yuyangxian, preparing to take Ziyan and Chen Shi siblings out of Caiyun Tower.

Wu Jiang and the others didn't know when Qu Wu would come back, so they were all waiting for Qu Wu to bid them farewell.

Qu Wu was also a little sad when he saw their reluctant looks. Although I have only been with them for a few months, I have already established a deep friendship.

Qu Wu took Ziyan and Chen Shi brothers and sisters, and took a carriage to the palace of Prince Shoumeng, where they boarded the Qingyun waiting for them, Li Qianmo, Li Shan and other people on the ship greeted them on the dock, and Qu Wu introduced them to each other one by one.

After boarding the ship, Ziyan and Chen Shi, brother and sister, were busy putting their luggage into the living cabin and moving the mahjong table to the crew activity room, which is a place for the crew to rest and have dinner.

After finishing it, Qu Wu called everyone for a short meeting and announced their respective responsibilities and precautions on the ship in the future.

At the end of the meeting, Qu Wu took out a gift for everyone: an LED flashlight for one person, an electronic watch for one person, and Qu Wu told everyone about the correspondence between the twelve hours and the twenty-four hours of the electronic watch.

These two modern supplies shocked Gongsun Feng and Li Qianmo very much, and Qu Wu configured these two things for them firstly for safety, and secondly, for the convenience of recruiting everyone.

Li Qianmo also got a telescope with infrared night vision function, which made him even more surprised, he didn't expect the new gang leader to have such an artifact.

Qu Wu also equipped the cabins with rechargeable LED lights and told them how to use and charge them.

Early the next morning, Li Qianmo gathered everyone to get up and get off the boat, came to the open space of the dock, and Qu Wu taught a martial arts course, and got on the boat after practicing for about half an hour.

After breakfast, the Qingyun anchored and headed for Yingdu.

In early summer, the green waves of the Yangtze River ripple, and the long willow branches of the willows on the river bank fall on the river like a girl's hair, swaying with the wind and verdant.

Qu Wu stood on the bow of the boat, looking into the distance, the river and the sky in the distance seemed to be one with each other, and the water of the Yangtze River seemed to pour down from the sky, unstoppable.

Qu Wu returned to the crew activity room and invited everyone to come here for a group activity to enhance mutual understanding. In addition to the boat crew, everyone else came here, Qu Wu asked everyone to sit in a circle, guided everyone to play games such as drumming and passing flowers, grabbing chairs, etc., and then asked Ziyan to teach everyone to sing, everyone is young, these novel forms of games make everyone have a lot of fun.

After playing the game, Qu Wu asked Chen Shi to teach everyone to play the landlord card game. Li Qianmo and those boatmen, as well as Li Shan and others, had never seen this thing, and as soon as they learned it, they became fascinated, and they admired the gang leader Qu Wu so much.

Play is playing, Qu Wu explained to everyone that the game should not be used for gambling, nor can it affect the normal duty and other serious things.

Qu Wu not only brought fun cards to Qingyun, but also dietary changes such as stir-fried vegetables and hot pot. Chen Shi became the chef on the ship, and Chen Huan and Chen Le also learned a few good dishes.

While everyone was having fun, Qu Wu, accompanied by Li Shan, went to the special cabin of the gang leader, which was equipped with desks, bookcases and other furniture, and the historical materials of the Qingyun Gang were gathered here.

Qu Wu listened carefully to Li Shan's introduction to the origin and historical events of the Qingyun Gang, and sorted out the problems faced by the Qingyun Gang at this stage one by one.

"Li Shan, what kind of characters does the Qingyun Gang currently have, in addition to the gang leader and sub-gang leader?" Qu Wu wants to know everything about the gang.

"The helper, under the helper is the elder in charge of liaison and recruitment, and there are three levels of upper, middle and lower among the elders, and the helper sends orders and recruits people through the elders at all levels." Li Shan replied.

"Oh, why didn't I see the Elder?" Qu Wu asked.

"Li Qianmo is an elder, he is the highest-ranking elder of the Qingyun Gang, but he is young, so he doesn't let us call him elder." Li Shan said.

"There are also elders under the leaders of each gang?" Qu Wu asked.

"There are also elders under the sub-gang master, and then the helmsman and the incense master." Li Shan replied.

"What's the difference between a helmsman and an incense master?"

"The lowest level of the Qingyun Gang is the incense master, the beggars who govern one side, generally there are one hundred to five hundred beggars under the incense master, and the head above the incense master is the helmsman master, and the helmsman is in charge of the incense master in his own area."

"Oh, I see. Under the general gang leader is the sub-gang leader, and then the helmsman and the incense master. The Elder is the liaison officer under the Gang Leader. ”

"Yes, under the general gang leader is the upper elder, under the sub-gang leader is the middle elder, and under the helm master is the lower elder."

"These gang masters, helmsmen, and incense masters?"

"The dog-beating sticks held by the gang leader are all green, and the authenticity must be distinguished by the sign engraved on it, the dog-beating stick of the helmsman is red, and the dog-beating stick of the incense master is black, and the signs of distinguishing the true from the false are also engraved on it."

"Is that the elder?"

"The elders don't hold dog sticks, because the elders are only liaison officers, they act on tokens, the upper elder's token is granted by the chief gang leader, the middle elder's token is granted by the sub-gang leader, and the lower elder's token is granted by the helmsman." Li Shan said.

"Oh, I see."

"In addition to dog sticks and tokens, the pockets on their clothes are also differentiated. The clothes worn by the owner of the gang are four pockets with covered pockets, the helm owner has three covered pockets, and the incense master has two covered pockets. The upper, middle, and lower elders wore clothes without covered pockets, which were four, three, and two pockets. ”

"How did the sub-gang masters, helmsman masters, incense masters, and third-level elders come about?"

"The leaders at all levels of the Qingyun Gang are produced by competition, and only those with strong martial arts can occupy the position of gang leaders. But if ordinary people challenge the position of the gang leader, in addition to martial arts, they also need to have financial resources, and the third-level elder is also a martial arts master, to challenge the position of the gang leader, you must first compete with the elder, and only by defeating the elder can you be qualified to compete with the gang leader. Li Shan said.

"Oh, no wonder." Qu Wu said thoughtfully, he understood that the process of competing with Gongsun Feng with two hundred taels of gold and fighting with Li Qianmo first coincided with the procedure of competing for the position of the gang leader, and it was this kind of misunderstanding that allowed him to ascend to the position of the chief gang leader.

Li Shan introduced this, and Qu Wu asked her to help her read the materials carefully, because she was not familiar with many ancient characters, and she needed to explain them to her sentence by sentence.

Qingyun rode the wind and waves, all the way forward, and did not stop passing through Hanyue, because Qu Wu and Ziyan hated to arrive in Yingdu immediately at this moment, and now the most urgent thing is to find relatives for Ziyan, Ziyan seems to reflect the appearance of her younger brother Zigui and her sister Zixin, but it is still the same as when they were seven or eight years ago, and I think I must not recognize it now.
