Chapter 152: Apology
Jiang Han looked at Lord Shen nervously.
"This officer, the order prohibiting buying and selling at the docks has been passed down."
"Your Excellency, think twice! This is ruining the livelihood of the people! Cutting off one's livelihood is a desperate way to live! Your Excellency, you are the parent here, you want to take care of your people, please take back your life! Jiang Han did not shy away from pulling his sleeve and begged with a sloppy face.
"Speak well! Don't make strange noises!" Lord Shen reprimanded, and pulled back the sleeve of his shirt from her hand in disgust, his serious appearance was terrifying, "This matter has been decided, this official is not a child's play!" ”
Jiang Han palpitated, withdrew his hands stupidly, and scratched his ears and cheeks a little anxiously.
How can it be so fast!
It's only been an hour!
Could it be that he just set this up on the docks?
I knew she was looking for him at the docks!
What is the best of now?
When Jiang Han was flustered and anxious, Lord Shen was also quietly observing her.
Don't have anything to say?
Hmph, I still want to jump in front of him with such a little ability!
He only needs to pinch her lifeblood with a light pinch!
Be sure to let her know it hurts this time!
Knowing that he is not something she can do at will!
Jiang Han, who was torturing his fingers while thinking quickly, inadvertently caught a glimpse of the smugness that flashed at the corner of Lord Shen's mouth.
She was stunned.
Proud? Proud of what?
This ban is not just an impulsive word to anger oneself, but has been planned for a long time?
So is there any benefit to him?
In fact, in addition to inspecting foreign people, ships and goods, the inspection department will only come forward to maintain order after some things are big, and secretly the good and bad things on this wharf are managed by the three major gangs according to their respective territories.
It is said that before Shen Heimian came, the so-called inspections were just going through the motions, and the people in the inspection department were more or less connected with the three major gangs, and they received a lot of benefits from others.
Could it be that Shen Heimian wanted to take advantage of this matter to force the three major gangs to give him benefits?
It's just that selling things on this dock, how much benefit can it be? Now the Huang Gang has dropped to 200 wen per person, even if another 100 people are released to sell things next month, it will only be 20 taels of silver......
Yes!
Twenty taels of silver, Lord Shen must not be able to look at it, but the three major gangs, especially the Yellow Gang, have very attractive fat on their bodies......
If this is the case, how can a poor bastard scheming Xiaobai like himself be able to dissuade Lord Shen, who has great plans!
Can you only get such a result by trying to please yourself?
Jiang Han thought about it while secretly looking at Lord Shen.
Lord Shen, who had been watching her, happened to catch her small movements, looked back calmly with a bleak face, and then opened his mouth lightly, and gave the order to evict the guest: "You go!" Don't delay the official office! ”
Jiang Han was embarrassed and unwilling, and he couldn't think of a countermeasure for a while, so he could only stand in place and hesitate whether he wanted to leave.
Lord Shen looked at her for a long time, and when she peeked over, he gestured with his chin in the direction of the door again.
Jiang Han was annoyed but didn't have the face to stay, turned around and walked towards the door in small steps.
I can't imagine that this Shen Heimian's previous actions against the Yellow Gang have such intentions!
So what's the meaning of the three knives I just suffered?
When they turn into grasshoppers on a rope, they're a joke!
A dull sigh rose in his chest.
Such a life-saving benefactor really makes her who has just regretted and introspected herself as indescribable as swallowing a fly!
Thinking of this, she stopped her steps and turned back to look at Lord Shen, just as she crashed into Lord Shen's dark eyes.
Her heart froze, as if she was sucked by his black eyes, and stared at him blankly, but the intersection between this person and herself repeatedly appeared in her mind.
Lord Shen rested his elbows on the table, clasped his hands against the tip of his nose, and his deep eyes stared at her sarcastically: "What? So reluctant? Then stay and pour tea and water for the official! ”
Jiang Han frowned when he heard this, and said in his heart: "How can I forget that this Shen Hei face is the most grudgeful and tough, the Yellow Gang has a conflict with him, how could he let the Yellow Gang go?" If you want to blackmail interests, people like him should only directly defeat people and seize benefits! If so, then if his ban is not improvised, then it should be to rectify the docks! ”
Thinking of this, Jiang Han's spirit was shocked, he rushed to the desk, and asked very quickly: "My lord, you want to straighten out the docks, right?" ”
Lord Shen said indifferently: "Lord Ben, let you stay and pour tea and water!" ”
Jiang Han was anxious: "That's not what I'm talking about, did you want to take the opportunity to take back control of the dock when you ordered the ban on trading?" ”
Master Shen put down his hand and tapped his index finger rhythmically on the tabletop: "Yes and no, not how?" ”
Her face relaxed, revealing an unfathomable look, and persuaded: "If so, the villain thinks that it is better to take back your order, and this is not conducive to your management!" ”
"If the 'request' is invalid, then you want to exaggerate and scare the official? This official doesn't eat this! Lord Shen leaned back on the chair, put his folded hands on his abdomen, squinted at her, and said in his heart: "There is still a little bit of urgency, then let me listen, how can you speak of lotus flowers!" ”
"How dare the villain scare you! Listen to the villain first! She cleared her throat and said seriously, "Who is most opposed to selling things at the docks?" It's the Yellow Gang! They used the method of demanding high protection fees to force the people not to dare to sell things at the dock, but I accidentally opened a gap, and even caused the Yellow Gang's territory on the dock to be robbed and the sphere of influence shrank. So your official ban on buying and selling just happened to their liking, and it helped them breathe a sigh of relief! ”
Let the Yellow Gang carry this pot! Who let them have a grudge against Shen Heimian!
Jiang Han, who had finished throwing the pot, thought blackheartedly.
It's a pity, how can Lord Shen be fooled?
He half-lowered his eyes, and said the key in one sentence: "Wrong, they don't prohibit people from going, but the protection fee is too high, and no one goes!" ”
"Perhaps, it's just that if you forbid it, the dock will be calm, just giving the Yellow Gang a chance to recuperate."
"Recharge? Hmph......"
Jiang Han's brain had been running at a high speed, and he finally thought of another reason.
She raised her voice, overshadowing Lord Shen's sarcastic laughter, and said, "Okay, the Huang Gang is secondary, the important thing is that the dock is occupied by three gangs, and it is difficult for the Inspection Department to interfere in other aspects except for inspecting ships and passengers on the dock, right?" It's actually the world of bullies right away!"
Lord Shen raised his eyes and glanced at her, but did not say a word.
"The wharf has a large territory, complex personnel, many affairs, and of course complex entanglements of interests. Now that you haven't completely eliminated the Huang Gang, if you want to target the Ma Chen and Chen gangs, then the three factions will definitely unite to fight against you, whether you can win or not is secondary, but it will definitely bring you a lot of trouble! ”
"Suppose you win in the end and clean up all three gangs, then the innocent ruffians in these three factions have no place to go, and can only flow from the docks to all parts of Luoxia Town, which brings hidden dangers to the security of Luoxia Town! Do you think I'm right? ”
Jiang Han paused, but she still didn't see Lord Shen react, she swallowed her saliva and had to continue.
"So, I don't think we can get rid of all these gangs on the docks."
Lord Shen raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh? Do you have a plan? ”
