Pi Yang rowed a small boat from east to west all the way to observe along the coast, only to see that the embankment is two feet high, there is a danger of a two-story small building, it is a natural barrier in the south of the county, and there is a post on the shore of 100 meters, ordinary people want to enter the city from the river bank, it is extremely difficult, the only port that can enter the city effortlessly, there are also regimental training battalion soldiers guarded, but in Pi Yang's eyes, these are small meanings.

The port is located on the west side of the city, the area is not wide, only a ferry about 100 meters long, the two sides of the ferry are full of official ships and flower boats for people to amuse, the small fishing boats can only be moored at the small wharf of the east and west gates, Pi Yang observed for a while in the distance of the ferry, and then rowed the boat away.

I came to the bank of the river at the west gate, and I didn't find any other place to enter the city, and I was going back to the rowing room, only to hear a dusk drum sounding, and someone in the city gate tower sang loudly: "At the beginning of the year, the city gate is closed!" With the heavy closing of the city gate, in addition to the lights of the flower tower on the north bank and the fishing fire on the river, most of the county has been shrouded in darkness.

Pi Yang didn't dare to delay, blew out the fish lamp, rowed the boat back, stopped at the backlight on the shore, entered the cabin and quickly changed into a Jiaopi water backing, wearing a black cloth shirt outside, out of the hatch, told the little girl a few words, kicked the eaves of the boat, climbed the raised stones on the embankment and climbed up.

He put his hand on the shore edge, poked out half of his head and looked left and right, soon after the city gate was closed, the soldiers guarding the shore also withdrew, a post of 100 meters became a post of 200 meters, the east and west ends of the north bank are not more prosperous than the middle section, the light reflected in the attic is very weak, no one can see anyone from 50 meters away, seeing that no one passes here, Pi Yang used his hands and feet together, and jumped ashore with a rub.

The little girl on the boat saw that the husband had disappeared into the night, so she did as he instructed, lit a fishing lantern and hung it on the bow of the boat, tied a white cloth on the small pole, and then put on a black robe and a hat, and rowed the boat to a water area directly in front of the ferry.

After the fishermen go out to sea, the boat must keep a distance between the boats, which is not only the tacit understanding between the boatmen, but also the rules that the fishermen must abide by, the reason is also very simple, you can't go to other boats to cast nets, cut off people's money, and you can't go to the fishermen's boat, scared away the fish. At night, the fishing lantern is hung on the bow of the boat, which indicates that the owner of the boat is working, and other boats will not approach, but Pi Yang still let the little girl hide her body and cover her face.

Wu Zixin shook the fishing rod boringly, puffed out her small mouth and blew saliva bubbles, throwing the fish hook here for a while, and then throwing it there, she didn't understand why she came to the river to inquire about the news of Qi Yunzhai, and she didn't know what Xiang Gong was doing now, like this kind of big thing, Pi Yang didn't say it, she wouldn't ask, as long as she believed in Xiang Gong unconditionally.

Pi Yang went ashore, walked through the alley to the street, and did not have to carry people, he walked swaggering all the way, looking left and right, one side was brightly lit, the wine shop was like a market, and the warblers were singing and dancing in the green building; On the other side, there are few stars, shops are closed, pedestrians are hanging from each other, with the main street as the boundary, the north and south districts, and two worlds.

After the county office, I arrived at Xiao's breakfast shop after a while, only to see that the door of the store was closed, and when I looked up, there were no lights on the second and third floors, and I didn't know if Yuan Zhutou had come.

Pi Yang glanced left and right, saw that no one was passing, took advantage of the night from the alley to the back of the shop, according to the morning method, and quietly jumped up to the third floor, the balcony door had long been closed, he tiptoed close, his ear was close to the door to listen carefully, and he didn't hear a single movement for a long time.

Damn, is Lao Tzu late? Pi Yang scolded secretly in his heart, the end of the unitary time can only be regarded as the evening, and the evening is only after the end of the hour, the two of you have made an appointment to meet at night, and now you are either leaving early or being late, it's really untrustworthy!

Secretly indignant for a while, and was about to jump down, when he suddenly heard a slight noise from downstairs, Pi Yang paused, clinging to the wall and not daring to move. Then there was a sound of small, chaotic footsteps, as if someone was going upstairs, and he recognized the footsteps, and concluded that there were four of them.

The four of them went up to the third floor, and immediately extinguished the fire, and after a period of greetings, a young voice sounded: "Yuan Tou, that's the case, my father and the people of Qiyunzhai have already negotiated, and Miss Li Er also knows that the wind has been tight recently, considering the current risk, she is willing to add three thousand taels of silver." ”

"That's great!" A surprised voice sounded: "Thanks to the outside staff, Young Master Xiao, don't worry, it's still as originally said, the silver will be in hand, and the account will be divided fifty-fifty." This voice is very familiar to Pi Yang, it is that Yuan Zhutou.

The young man coughed twice, and his tone was a little embarrassed: "Yuan Tou Shenyan, I forgot to introduce you, this is the Pang Commander of Qiyun Village." ”

In the dark, no one can see the expression on anyone's face, but thinking about it, Yuan Zhutou must be embarrassed at the moment, how can he discuss with his partners how to divide the spoils in front of the customer? The atmosphere cooled down for a while.
