Chapter 62 Competition for Posts

It's just that what Chasing Life and Iron Hand didn't expect was that not long after they arrived at this dock, two other people they knew also appeared here, it was Ji Yaohua, the female catcher who was in the limelight at Six Doors, and the cold-blooded who hadn't met for nearly half a month.

Chasing Life and Iron Hand looked at each other suspiciously, and they both felt a little surprised, obviously because of what happened last time, the cold-blooded didn't leave a good impression on the two of them.

"What are you doing here? There is also that woman, who knows at a glance that she is in love with adultery. ”

The mouth that chased the life was as poisonous as ever, and secretly sarcastic.

"Let's see what happens." The iron hand stopped the chase who was about to get up and come out, and gestured to Zhang Yang, who was observing the surrounding situation in another corner, signaling not to disrupt the plan.

The two of them were in an alley next to the pier at the moment, while Zhang Yang was pretending to be a pedestrian, staring at the wooden boat slowly floating on the water in the distance. Before this, after everyone's disguise and tracking, An Shigeng took a small boat this morning and came to this pier, so Zhang Yang and the others paid attention.

It's just that An Shigeng seems to be just a routine inspection, and after telling the person in charge of receiving the goods at the dock a few words, he left, and there was no other suspicious behavior.

In this way, under the gaze of both sides, the wooden boat, which was not too wide, was close to the case, and a traditional character An was engraved on the hull, and the flagpole on it was bare, and if the flag was hung, it could be seen that it was also an character on it.

In this era, marking goods is a very common phenomenon. And the business of the dart game at this time is still very good, just like the signboard. The dart game itself has its own signboard, and ordinary merchants are also different because of different regions. industry, family and other backers. Different trade names are also distinguished. And the name of An Jia is undoubtedly very deterrent, even some bold mountain bandits and robbers dare not stop An Jia's goods casually.

Of course, with the current status of An Jia, it is no longer worth letting An Shigeng come forward in person, at most the shopkeeper of An Jia or the person in charge of freight can come forward. On the bright side. An Shigeng has Cai Xiang's protection, in private, An Shigeng is known as the God of Wealth, as long as there is money to be made, he is naturally the same enemy, so there are very few blind guys who come to find trouble with the An family.

The so-called protection of officials and officials, there are people above who are easy to do, and the An family is obviously deep in three of them.

And the cargo ship that settled down drove into the dock without hurrying. The guys on the dock who were still carrying the goods of other ships immediately left their work behind and ran over with a brush, which made the other business guys on the dock who were preparing to load and unload the goods angry. It's just that in the face of the power of the An family, he can only think about it in his heart when he is angry.

"The dog fights the human power, if there is no protection from Cai Xiang. Can An Jia mix so moisturizing? ”

Someone muttered a few words in a low voice, but was immediately slapped on the head by the boat boss next to him. He scolded in a low voice: "Give Lao Tzu a little quiet!" Let the people of the settled family hear, you don't want to live anymore! ”

"Yes......" The guy who was slapped was a little aggrieved. It's just that in the face of the boat boss and the An family, he can't afford to provoke either one, so he has to work with a sad face.

Zhang Yang was not far from this ship's station, so after seeing this scene, he shook his head with some emotion, and then focused on the Anjia merchant ship that had already begun to unload.

Among the guys waiting to unload the goods on the dock, there was a quick response, and as soon as the ship stopped, he took the initiative to run over, took the rope and fixed the ship on the wooden stake of the dock.

"Well done, these goods will be yours."

The eyes of the guy who took the broken silver lit up, and the action of receiving the silver with one hand was more skillful and skilled, as if he had practiced it thousands of times. The words of the captain of the boat made him more refined, and after putting away the silver, he raised his hand, and immediately four or five young men squeezed out of the crowd and ran over.

"Big brother."

"Boss, are you alive?"

This guy seemed to be the leader of these young people, and immediately took out a head-to-head momentum, and commanded: "Brothers, the shopkeeper has handed over this ship to us, this is the goods of the God of Wealth, give me a steady hand." Well done, the big shopkeeper is not bad for money! ”

"Hey, okay! Big brother, just take a look. ”

The man's words made the eyes of several other young people also light up, and the previous act of the boat boss throwing him broken silver naturally did not hide it from everyone, and everyone was also very envious of this lucky guy. Fortunately, although I didn't grab the extra reward, but I was able to take the unloading of this ship, which was not bad, and the people of the Anjia business have always been generous, as long as they are satisfied, the reward is absolutely indispensable.

"It's scattered, hurry up and get to work!"

Seeing that the business of Anjia's merchant ship was robbed, the other guys muttered a few words and then dispersed and returned to their posts.

And Zhang Yang also inquired with Tieshou afterwards to know that at this time, because there was no modern machinery and equipment, the loading and unloading of goods was manual. And this loading and unloading work, the competition on the dock is very fierce. Because of the low technical content and hard work, many men who are not working but have strength come back to the dock to do odd jobs from time to time to earn some money to subsidize their families.

However, since there are part-time workers, there are naturally professional porters, and as time goes by, there is a conflict between the two, and the competition for job opportunities is becoming more and more fierce. So much so that later, it was almost rare to see someone who was in charge of the business alone. Often, a group of people assemble into a group, and there is a special person who goes up to pull business after the ship docks at the dock, and as soon as they get the job, the rest of the people rush up, and then get their share of the salary according to the workpiece.

As for those who worked part-time jobs in the past, they could only choose to join these small groups, which was no way, and the reason that individuals couldn't do the group was valid in most cases. And this guy with good eyes is the leader of this group of porters, who took the lead in snatching the unloading work of Anjia Business just now, and the others naturally didn't have to rob it.
