Chapter 1890: Local Tyrant (1st Update)
Yang Yongjin walked in front with a brisk walk, Chen Jinhong trotted behind, and the two of them ran towards the direction of the dock together.
The shops on both sides of the street are lit up, and when the weather warms up, there are more people who come out to shop at night.
The two men made their way through the bustling streets and headed east, gradually leaving behind the noise.
Out of the city, came to the eastern suburbs.
The big river flows from the east of Wanghai County, like a semicircular embrace that encircles Wanghai County.
The port is located in the eastern suburbs, which is an important port connecting the north and south and running through the east and west.
Many ships from the south to the north transit and supply here, which led to the economic prosperity of Wanghai County.
"Oops!"
Behind him, Chen Jinhong suddenly exclaimed.
Yang Yongjin turned his head to see that she had fallen.
"Third brother and sister, are you okay?"
He quickly ran back, grabbed her up, and then let go of his hand and stepped aside.
Chen Jinhong leaned over and patted the dust on his knees, shaking his head embarrassedly.
"I'm fine, it's just that my knee is a little broken, let's go, second brother, let's hurry up and find Yongzhi." She said.
"Hmm."
Yang Yongjin nodded, turned around and walked quickly to the front again, followed by Chen Jinhong.
When the two of them came to the vicinity of the pier out of breath, they saw a windproof wind lamp hanging on a bamboo pole above the pier.
The lemon yellow light shone in, shining on the empty dock, and half of the figures were wooden.
"This looks like it's a job off, why didn't Yongzhi go home?"
Chen Jinhong said anxiously, her voice trembling slightly, as if she was about to fall down with worry.
Yang Yongjin didn't say a word, his eyes swept around inch by inch, the wharf, the big river, several ships docked in the port, and a row of low houses similar to warehouses on the left.
"There is still light in that room, presumably the person guarding the warehouse has not slept yet, you wait for me here, I will go and inquire."
He gave an explanation to Chen Jinhong and walked over quickly.
In a few moments, he returned.
"What's going on, second brother? Did you hear anything? Chen Jinhong hurried up and asked.
Yang Yongjin shook his head: "I said that I would leave work when it was dark." ”
"But, Yongzhi didn't go home...... Chen Jinhong raised his hand to cover his chest and said, "Oh my God, what's going on?" I'm so worried......"
Yang Yongjin frowned and stood by the dock for a moment, "Let's go, go back to the restaurant first, and I'll find a few guys to help find it together." ”
The two men turned and walked back, and before they had gone a little way, three or five men suddenly appeared in the middle of the road ahead.
On the road that was not very spacious, they lined up, blocking Yang Yongjin and Chen Jinhong's way.
Yang Yongjin stopped his steps abruptly and looked at the men in front of him.
These are all very old, in their early twenties.
Dressed sloppily, a ruffian, and still holding a guy in his hand.
Some had short clubs, some had whips, and one was playing with a short knife in his hand.
These people, presumably the ruffians of the mixed docks?
Yang Yongjin secretly thought, the dock is a mixture of dragons and snakes.
"Brothers, dare to ask you what do you mean by blocking the way?" Yang Yongjin asked vigilantly.
He took a step back silently.
Chen Jinhong also saw a few men blocking the road in front of him, and he screamed in fright, and hurriedly hid behind Yang Yongjin, so frightened that he didn't dare to come up again.
Both hands grabbed Yang Yongjin's arm tightly, and his body also leaned over, and he couldn't help but tremble.
Yang Yongjin was not used to this kind of physical closeness, his brows furrowed, and he subconsciously wanted to push Chen Jinhong away.
On the other side, a man at the head opened his mouth.
"What do you mean? What the don't you have eyes? ”
"Leave the woman and the silver, you fuck off!" That's humane.
"Huh? Don't, don't, second brother save me......"
Chen Jinhong exclaimed, hugged Yang Yongjin's arm tighter, and most of his body was attached to it.
I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, the pair of balls on his chest rubbed against Yang Yongjin's arm.
This made Yang Yongjin upset, and directly pushed Chen Jinhong away.
"The third brother and sister are calm and don't be impatient." He whispered.
Then, he took a few steps forward, came to the front of those people, took a deep breath, forced down the panic, raised his hands and clenched his fists.
"A few brothers, everyone came out to beg for a living, and it was not easy."
"Otherwise, I would like to keep all my money and belongings, please raise your hands and don't embarrass us!"
Yang Yongjin said, took out three taels of silver from his body, and a few hundred coins, and offered them with both hands.
"Hiss......"
The men on the other side gasped, and the air stirred.
"This is all my belongings, don't be too few brothers, take it and buy some wine to drink, count me as a treat, I just ask you to let us go." Yang Yongjin said again.
The people exchanged glances, and then, the man in the lead, snatched Yang Yongjin's bag containing money and put it into his waist.
Yang Yongjin watched the man's actions nervously, and he didn't dare to come out.
I saw that after the man put away the money bag, he spat at Yang Yongjin's feet.
"***, you think a few stinky money is great? Just like this? ”
The man's eyes widened, and he angrily scolded Yang Yongjin.
"I ......"
As soon as Yang Yongjin spoke, he was truncated.
"What are you?" The man questioned.
Raised his hand and pointed at Yang Yongjin's nose: "Obviously there are three taels of silver, and you still say that it is less?" Are you modest or proud to show off your wealth in disguise? ”
"I ......"
"What am I?"
"You look good, you have some money at home, right? Showing off your wealth with your grandfather, right? ”
"No, there really isn't a ......," Yang Yongjin hurriedly explained.
But the other party didn't give him a chance to explain.
"Ye sue you, even if you are a landlord and an old man, how can you do it?"
"Can silver be exchanged for a brother? Can silver be exchanged for a girl? Can silver be exchanged for face? Can silver be exchanged for happiness? ”
"Brothers, tell him out loud whether you can or can't!"
"Yes!"
Behind him, the uniform loud answer startled the man at the head.
He turned and jumped up and slapped one of his henchmen on the head.
"You talk nonsense, think about it and then answer!"
The little brother covered his head and said with an aggrieved face: "Big brother, let's follow you, isn't it just to eat fragrant and drink spicy food!" ”
"Huh?" The man's gaze swept to the others.
Several others nodded.
The man at the head raised his hand and touched his bald head, as if he was also pondering this profound question, and he was also very engrossed.
Here, Yang Yongjin's eyes flashed when he saw them like this, and suddenly, he knocked away a nearby person and knocked the road open.
