As soon as he ate half of it, he heard Guo Sheng signal to Xu Huan, "Those boats, on the flag on the top of the mast, it seems to be a cypress character, I'm afraid that it is the Bai Shuaisi family on Jiangnan West Road who has just left office, and they have entered Beijing to report on their work, and it is almost time to go to Gaoyou." ”
Xu Huan hurriedly leaned over to look out. Li Xia stopped peeling the fish bones and looked up at several bright ships coming from the south.
In the middle of the middle is a two-story ship, with its sails down, slowly approaching the pier, followed by a slightly smaller building ship, and then three or four large cargo ships. They all approached the already crowded dock, and the dock suddenly became chaotic like a large handful of fish food sprinkled on a calm fish pond.
Xu Huan frowned, looking at the boat boss who was standing at the bow of the boat and waving at the ships around him, and said worriedly to Guo Sheng: "Do we have to go down and have a look?" It's so crowded on this dock, how can you squeeze in? Don't make sure something happens, he's a handsome priest, and he's angry again, brother-in-law......"
"This Pingjin wharf is one of the largest wharves on the canal, can these boats still be squeezed? You sit down and eat your snails, just look at it, even if you can't squeeze it, it's not appropriate to go down at this time. You sit back, don't delay Ah Xia to eat fish, let's just watch, just to see how this Bai Shuaisi's family style is. Guo Sheng pushed Xu Huan and motioned for him to sit back.
Seeing that Guo Sheng was so calm, Xu Huan felt a little more at ease, sat back, moved the table and chairs, and leaned towards the dock so that he could see more clearly.
Sure enough, as Guo Sheng said, the seemingly airtight wharf, under the shaking of several boat bosses and many boatmen, waving their arms and shouting and arguing, they really squeezed out the space to accommodate the big ships of the Bai family, and five or six boats all leaned to the edge of the wharf.
The two-story ship was in the middle, and the slightly smaller building ship was next to each other, as if it was not too stable to stop, and the ship put a springboard on the dock to come out, and the rest of the cargo ships, lined up around the building ship, also quickly lowered the anchor, put down the springboard, and the people on the boat went down to the dock, each busy.
From the appearance of several big ships of the Bai family, to the moment they stopped, it was only two quarters of an hour. The chaotic dock has regained its order and calm just now, and the big ships of the Bai family seem to have been parked there all along.
Xu Huan breathed a long sigh of relief, and smiled, "Brother Guo's eyesight is really powerful, and the dock is really good, seeing that he can't squeeze in, how can he squeeze in?" ”
"What kind of eyesight is this? You've seen it once, won't you know it next time? There is no frame on both sides of the wharf, that is, squeeze it on the side, you look at that end, and this end, the place where the boat can be parked and docked, it is still empty for two or three miles, and this wharf is not too busy at this time. Guo Sheng said with a smile as he stared at the building ship.
Li Xia sat next to his uncle Xu Huan, and also looked at the building ship intently.
On the top floor of the building boat, several chiefs followed up and set up a bamboo shed, and after a while, Bai Jingning took his son Bai Qiao to the top floor of the building boat, standing by the railing, Bai Jingning touched his son's shoulder with one hand, pointed around with the other, and said something to his son.
"This is the Bai family father and son?" Xu Huan looked at it intently and asked, Guo Sheng snorted. Xu Huan looked at it for another moment and sighed: "The momentum of the Bai family is really speechless. The father and son are like two guns, with an unstoppable momentum. At least it seems, it's a good guy. ”
"This Bai family, the family style is really good." Guo Sheng looked at Li Wenlan and explained, "If he goes to Beijing to report on his work like this, he can be regarded as an envoy, and some of them are majestic, but they are not willing to squeeze together with civilian ships like this, and most of them will use official defense, order civilian ships to avoid it, and block out a place for exclusive use, even if the entire wharf is requisitioned, it is not too rare." It is very rare for him to squeeze in like a civilian ship. ”
"If the entire dock is requisitioned, does Daddy have to come forward and requisition it for him, then Daddy has to come over? Waiting on the docks? "Li Wenlan has learned a lot of explicit and unspoken rules.
"Hmm." Guo Sheng glanced at Li Xia, who was distracted by the Bai family's father and son on the boat.
On a few boats of the Bai family, four or five stewards came down, and they went down to the dock with many elders, all of them walked quickly, and it didn't take long for the porters who carried vegetables and meat, as well as all kinds of things, to start sending things to the boats like flowing water.
After more than an hour, the steward and the captain returned, and the boatmen drew the gangplank, propped up the boat, and left the dock.
"This Bai Shuaisi really doesn't disturb the people." Xu Huan sighed.
"It's time for us to go back, too." Guo Sheng took the account, took Li Xia, Xu Huan took Li Wenlan, went downstairs, and went back to the county office.

Capital.
Mr. Qin was standing far away from the angry crowd in the middle of the Confucian Temple, and cold sweat was pouring out layer after layer on his forehead.
He just looked at the list, Yongning Bofu Uncle Li Wenshan High School second, he saw it with his own eyes, and spent money to buy a copy of the list, sat in the tea shop, drank a cup of tea in a happy mood, just met the tea money, I heard that in front of this Confucian Temple, there are scholars gathered to make trouble, shake the list out, indicating that the subject of Shangshu is a scholar according to the price, Tong Su is not bullied, and he is a sinner of the country.
When he trotted all the way over, he didn't expect that there was already such a disturbance here, and there were two or three hundred scholars gathered in front of him, and more and more scholars gathered around.
Mr. Qin moved back a few more steps, raised his hand to wipe a handful of cold sweat, and looked at the group of indignant scholars, and saw that they were ten steps away from this group of scholars, all wearing black cloth leggings, echoing each other, as if they were looking at the lively strong men, but they didn't dare to stare at it.
Mr. Qin glanced a few times, then quickly looked away, his eyes slipped around, looked a few more times, and moved his feet back step by step, all the way to the tea shop across the street, and simply retreated to the tea shop, asked for a bowl of tea, stood by the window, drank tea restlessly, and looked at the Temple of Literature that was becoming more and more angry.
In the direction of the Yamen of the Beijing Mansion, there was a sound of footsteps, and the warning sound of the water and fire sticks hitting the ground came, Mr. Qin slammed, threw the tea bowl on the table, stepped to the door of the tea workshop, and struggled to the front from the many tea guests who stretched out their necks to watch the excitement, and saw the officials of the Beijing Yamen, with knives on their waists and bright red and black water and fire sticks in their hands, rushing straight to the group of scholars in the middle of the Confucian Temple.
Mr. Qin stared at the sturdy men on the periphery of the scholars, watching them quickly gather and form a human wall, while pushing the crowd in front of him, pushing them towards the rushing officials, blocking the way of the officials, and I don't know where a sharp and bright shout came from: "Kill!" Kill someone......"
