Chapter 82: The Road to the South 4

"Wait...... Wait ......" hurriedly grabbed the tent with a pair of dog eyes, Ah Zhen quickly said: "The passenger ship is too expensive, I really can't afford to take it, if you go to Suzhou, take me for a ride, I will give you all the money on my body, and I won't ...... sleeping on the deck or the warehouse."

Seeing that the migrant workers had come out of the warehouse again, he waved his arm impatiently, "Don't go to Suzhou, let's go and ......."

Smelling that he couldn't go to Suzhou, Ah Zhen immediately put away his face and scolded forward very unhappily: "If you don't go to Suzhou, you will say it earlier, isn't Luo a lot of waste of everyone's time?" ”

"You're not going to get out yet?" The tent picked up the pen and wrote as he clicked, and scolded back distractedly: "Hurry up and get out of me." ”

"Lao Tzu stands wherever he likes, is this your family? Your son's asshole little bunny. ”

"You ......"

Seeing that the tent turned his head to scold back, Ah Zhen stretched out his arm and pointed to the cargo ship to urge: "There is another cargo coming in, remember quickly." ”

"Two, four, six teas, six pieces, two, four ......"

"Two, four, eight, you counted wrong, the tea is eight, not six."

"You ......"

"Hurry up, a few more people walked in, it seems that there are three, no! It's four, eh? Is it three or four? Ah Zhen hurriedly stretched out his arm to the migrant worker again, and urged anxiously: "Hurry up, two, four, eight, ......."

"Stop ......" The beard of the tent was crooked, and he roared at the migrant workers who stopped moving, turned to Tie Qing's face and glared at Ah Zhen fiercely, and then hurried to the deck to recount the goods.

"You little bunny, to the point." Ah Zhen took a sip at the dog's eye tent, curled the corners of his mouth and stepped towards another loaded merchant ship.

"Don't go to Suzhou ......"

"Don't go, don't go......"

"We are going north, not going down to the south of the Yangtze River......"

"Fuck." Asked again and again, and was rejected again and again, Ah Zhen was very unhappy and spit a mouthful of thick phlegm on the ground, feeling that he was still very unhappy, and continued to ask forward.

"Dry ......"

"......"

"Poison your mother......"

The huge dock asked all the way, he cursed all the way, and suspected that these tents were playing tricks on him, twenty or thirty ships, none of them went down to the south of the Yangtze River, who the fuck lied to.

Don't be discouraged, persistence is victory, and I don't believe that there is no one to go to the south of the Yangtze River.

"Uncle, don't you go to Jiangnan?"

"No, no."

"Uncle, are you going to Jiangnan?"

"No, no."

……

Well, when a person is unlucky, drinking cold water may stuff his teeth, maybe he is unlucky now, and sometimes when he comes to transport, he must persevere.

"Uncle, are you going north?"

"Yes, to Suizhou, is there anything wrong with the little brother?"

"Then go to Jiangnan?"

“……”

"It's okay, you're busy."

Defeat is called defeat, this is the real defeat. Seeing that the huge wharf was about to come to an end, but there was no one going down to the south of the Yangtze River, Ah Zhen was extremely depressed and dragged the old steps of the cang, wanting to cry and drag to the tail without tears.

The last boat, you must go down to Jiangnan. With a dry mouth and a weak body, he didn't have any hope and asked an elderly tent standing by the dock: "Uncle, do you want to go down to the south of the Yangtze River?" ”

"Does the little brother want to go down to Jiangnan?" Counting the numbers, the old man glanced at the dejected young man, smiled dumbly and asked, "What?" I've asked all of them, and none of them are in the south of the Yangtze River, right? ”

"Click?" The decadent body straightened up, "How do you always know, old man?" ”

"Okay, rest for a while." Seeing that the actions of the migrant workers began to slow down, the old man put away his pen and turned around and said with a smile: "The boat going south is in the morning, and the boat going north in the afternoon is going north, you came at the wrong time." ”

"I see." Ah Zhen suddenly realized, and slapped the door of his brain, "It turns out that these tents are not playing on him." ”

The old lady saw him slap his head, and suddenly smiled even more happily, "Little brother hasn't run the boat, right?" ”

"That's right." Ah Zhen shrugged his shoulders and said, "When I was a child, I took a fishing boat and fished, but the boat really never ran. ”

"That's why you don't know." The old man pointed to the endless cargo ships and said: "The merchant ships going south will issue official defense in the morning, and the merchant ships going north will be issued at noon, and all the goods must have travel vouchers issued by the river defense, and the seals will all be issued on time and on point, and they will not be allowed to enter or leave at half a moment." ”

"I'm afraid of tax evasion." Ah Zhenming nodded, but he didn't expect that this brain-dead world was not completely crippled.

The old man encountered a noun barrier, frowned and asked, "Little brother, what is tax evasion?" ”

"It's private goods and official goods."

"What are private goods and official goods?"

"What is a private ......" Ah Zhen stammered, pointed to the goods of the entire ship, and said as a matter of course: "You want to ship to the river defense to issue seals, are these seals for you for nothing?" ”

"Of course not, these are for silver." The old man opened his eyes wide, and also compared a boat of goods and said: "When you want the goods, you have to stack the goods in the tent in advance, and then the river sends someone to inspect the goods, and the things transported have a price, and they are presented to the household department and stamped, and the money is paid to have the passage certificate of the river defense, which is nothing in vain." ”

"By the way, it's called taxes." Comparing the large pile of goods under the canopy and the goods on the ship, he said: "Rice, tea, silk, porcelain, how much you have to pay for a bag and a box are all priced, right?" ”

"Of course." The old lady nodded.

"Then what if you don't pay for these seals and meet the river defense inspection while driving on the river?" Ah Zhen seduces and guides well.

"Naturally, it's going to be detained." The old lady said in horror: "If it is light, it will be fined, and if it is serious, it may be a lawsuit." ”

"Isn't that the end of it?" Ah Zhen smiled and patted the old man in front of him, "If you have paid money and stamped it, this is called official goods, and the emperor is not afraid of coming." And those who go away without paying the money are private goods, and they have to cower. ”

"Understood." Understanding what tax evasion is, what is private goods and official goods, the old lady laughed and said: "The little brother is as smart as my eldest young master." ”

Ah Zhen was stunned for a moment when he was praised, and almost said with a smile: "Old lady, I'll teach you another trick, a trouble-saving and labor-saving way to move goods." ”

The old lady felt that he was very smart, and asked curiously, "Oh, what is the method?" ”

"Come on." Pulling him to the bottom of the canopy, he gestured to the dozen or so migrant workers sitting on the stone bars of the wharf and said: "You don't need to ask them to walk back and forth, as long as everyone stands in one position, about two or three steps away, and then passes the goods to the cargo ship." ”

"This ......" thought about it, and the old lady asked: "Will this be more effortless?" ”

"Of course, walking back and forth can be tiring." Pointing to the large pile of goods at his feet, Ah Zhen smiled and nodded, "Pass the goods like this, old lady, you can get a chair and sit next to the goods to count and keep accounts, and you can also stand outside the tent on a hot day." ”

Feeling that this method seemed to work, the old lady nodded and said, "Okay, then let's try it." When the words fell, he beckoned to the large pile of porters and shouted, "All right, everyone come here, all come here." ”

"Come, let's stand on the cargo ship two or three steps apart." Attracting everyone, the old lady hurriedly acted according to what Ah Zhen said, and drank a large number of hazy and longing people to the stationmaster Renlong, and the old lady called to the first person with great satisfaction: "Okay, you move the goods and hand them to the people behind, and the people behind them will hand them to the people behind, and everyone will deliver them to each other on the boat." ”

"Okay." Although they didn't know what they were going to do, the migrant workers took the money to do things and started immediately.

"Don't stand like a dead man, walk forward and backward to receive goods, and your hands, feet, and waist all move." Seeing that the solitaire had begun, Ah Zhen shouted to these stiff migrant workers: "Don't stop, move faster." ”

"Oh, give, give, give......" With his yo drink, the human dragon moved, although he was not used to it at first, he slowly became handy, and the speed of progress was more than twice as fast as the original.

As the goods were passed one after another, the old lady was almost too busy, and while brushing the pen to quickly keep accounts, he praised without raising his head: "Little brother, you are so smart." ”

"Old lady, you concentrate on keeping accounts." Hehe smiled at the old lady who was serious about his work, Ah Zhen glanced at the hot receiver Long, sighed secretly and turned to leave the huge dock. It seems that I have to sleep on the streets for the night tonight, so I should hurry up and find a hidden place to spend the night. According to the calculation of the hour, Cheng Ni's master and apprentice who have no horses will arrive in Xingyuan before dark, and they should buy horses and chase them south at full speed, right?

The bleak wind, the hazy moon.

Lin Azhen hugged himself and didn't dare to go too far from the dock to wander aimlessly on the street, as the night came, the business travelers on the lively street gradually became scarce, the bright Lanshan lanterns were strung in three steps, five steps and one, and the colorful glow gave the Xingyuan decoration in the dark night dazzling, reflecting the Changlong that was different from the day.

"Childe, come on......"

"Ouch boy, our Qin Yulou girls can sing and dance, come in and sit......"

Holding himself, Ah Zhen slowly walked in a fireworks alley, listening to the sounds of invitations in his ears, and glancing at the sons and uncles who were half-pushed and half-pulled into the mansion by his sister. staring at those smiling sisters, a wave of anger in his heart was skewered up for some reason.

"Ahem......" Seeing that the two of them obviously wanted to do it, but they pretended to be decent and gentleman-like shit and were half-pushed and half-pushed into the mansion by their sisters, Ah Zhen's throat couldn't suppress the thick phlegm. , what's that? I despise Lao Tzu, and when I get rich, I will smash you ** bitches with silver.

"Gong ...... Belch? Small...... The little brother ...... "Just as Ah Zhen was scolding, his arm was suddenly grabbed, and when he turned his head suspiciously, a strong smell of fat powder suddenly came into his nose.

"Something wrong with the girl?" Ah Zhen frowned lightly, looked at his little young lady suspiciously, and was stunned for a moment. No way? Come out and sell it at such a young age?

"I ...... I ......" just looked at the handsome face of this little brother and thought he was a son, and after dragging it, Xiao Cui found out that it was the little brother, and the dragging was all dragged, and the dead horse was a live horse doctor. "Gong ...... Childe came in. ”

"Huh?" Seeing that this young lady with heavy makeup was so shy, Ah Zhen's handsome eyebrows became tighter and tighter, and he looked up suspiciously and looked at the plaque in the house: "Drunken Flower Courtyard." ”

"Xiaocui, what the hell are you doing? Why haven't you ...... any guests until now?" Ah Zhen finished speaking, and there was a loud thunder in the house, and then a huge black shadow squeezed out of the house door with the speed of the autumn wind sweeping the leaves.

"Huh?" Hurriedly squeezed out of the door, the big mouth of the scolding saw Ah Zhen suddenly stopped, the old bustard sighed lightly, and then the surprise stretched out his short and fat arm, and gently dragged forward, and lifted the guest lightly to him.

It's hard to believe that there is such a big sow in this world, and Ah Zhen, who was in shock, was suddenly lifted, staggered and stood firm, and yelled at the big sow in horror: "You...... What are you going to do...... Why? ”
