There are many waterways in Jiangzhou, and there are naturally many boatmen who are born near the water, and in addition to fishing on weekdays, they rely on private ferries to earn some silver taels and pay more taxes, but their lives are better than those of many farmers who work on the land.

The man who was holding the penny was not for a while, and the bamboo raft was naturally not fast enough to be pushed by the water flow, but this man was not willing to show more strength. This guest is also too picky, the most broken bamboo raft in the whole ferry is not high, but five taels of silver, forced by this person to grind hard bubbles cut off half of the price, two taels of broken silver will be won, and even this kid also proposed that he drove the bamboo raft by himself, can he subtract a few more dollars of silver, was this unbearable man decisively refused.

This man didn't want to go to this boat in Mali County, but he recently added another one to his family without a handle, and he had to save up some dowry, so he would rather ask for less money.

However, the guest's place has not been peaceful recently, and I heard the news that has gone viral recently, saying that the two Jiangzhou sects in Jiangzhou are full of food and have nothing to do, and they are fighting for territory there, and many people have died, and the livelihood of the nearby boats is not good, so they either change careers or go to other places to avoid the limelight.

The rattan tied to the raft had been smoothed, and the young guest was squatting at the head of the raft, not knowing what to think.

Wei Changpan put his hand into the flowing water, and he could feel the slightest coolness spreading up his arm, and he retracted it. He left in a hurry, and except for some clothes and scattered silver taels, he only took the old Xiucai's piece of jade.

When he went out alone, he realized that the money he had saved before was really a little stretched thin, and only this ferry, the broken silver of the coarse cloth cloth bag was slender and small, and it could be easily held in the heart of his fist.

Xu is that the man felt a little bored, so he hummed the ballad of Zhouzi, the content is roughly once a handsome Zhouzi, once rescued the rich daughter of a famous fallen into the water, the charming girl also fell in love with the young Zhouzi at first sight, and then escaped with the elders of the family, and the boat worshipped heaven and earth, became married, and since then both have been in love.

However, this is probably just the fantasy of these boaters, and the opposite of the content of this ballad is that it is much more difficult for these boats born by the water to get a daughter-in-law than that of the farmer, and the boatwoman has to do the work of weaving and mending fishing nets on weekdays, and when the boat is out on the boat, the family often has to take care of all the rough work and tiring work in the family.

After the man finished singing, he missed sleeping on his daughter-in-law's belly, and he was even more reluctant to exert more effort to prop up the penny, and the bamboo raft naturally became slower and slower, like a turtle crawling.

Seeing that the unhurried pedestrians on the shore had the momentum to catch up with the bamboo raft, Wei Changpan was actually a little anxious in his heart, but at the same time, he also understood that he was really a little ruthless in bargaining, and the boatman was a little stingy.

He got up and walked towards the end of the bamboo raft, and when the man saw the guest coming, he thought that he was going to ask how to spend the night on this raft, so he said: "If the guest wants to stay better, he will rest at the inn on the shore, if he is in a hurry, he can only rest on this raft for a night, and he has not yet covered it, and the guest is careful at night, and remember to put on more clothes." ”

This man is a little weak-hearted, this bamboo raft is actually covered, but there is only one set, if this guest sleeps, he can only lie on the slippery bamboo floor for the night.

I never thought that although this guest was holding on to the money bag tightly, it was strange that he didn't pay attention to other big and small things, and he even took the penny from his hand, saying that he wanted to support him in the first half of the night. At first, the man who was a little worried about the guest stared at the side for a while, and when he saw that the young guest did not look like a swollen face and a fat man, he praised him from the bottom of his heart:

"The guest's support is not worse than our boats that come and go in the river for half a lifetime. ”

It's just that the young guest's answer made the man smile bitterly: "In that case, can the silver be less than two dollars?"

The man who clutched the money bag on his waist hurriedly waved his hand, "The guest officer is good to discuss, this silver has been reduced by half before, no matter how little, let my family drink the northwest wind?"

"It's just a joke, don't take it seriously. Wei Changpan inserted the penny into the water, and with another force, the bamboo raft went forward two or three feet down the river, which was naturally much faster than when the man held it.

The man who hesitated for a moment spoke: "The guest is not very old, I am afraid that he will only tie his hair, so how can he come out alone." ”

Wei Changpan lifted the penny from the water, held the upper half of the penny and was not so wet, according to the cat and the tiger to learn the Zhangjia gun handle style, with the penny as a gun, out of two shots, although they are all one or two fractals, but in the eyes of this man, it is fearful.

"Bang bang. The fan-like slap shook the sky, and the man scratched his shoulders and said, "I can't see that the guest has such martial arts at such an age, and the matter of collecting money should not be said." Then he untied the money bag from his waist.

The change in the expression of the man on his face who was afraid of being unpretentious was all taken into Wei Changpan's eyes, and he hurriedly stopped his movements, and said in confusion: "Uncle, I'm just playing two tricks, and the silver should be given or given." ”

The man tentatively spoke: "Does the guest have anything to do with the Yanyu Building?"

Wei Changpan was stunned for a moment when he asked this, thinking that there should be a relationship, so he nodded in a daze.

The man finally untied the sturdy rope that tied the money bag, and directly stuffed the sewing and mending money bag into Wei Changpan's hand, and hurriedly took the pen from his hand, with a smile on his face:

"The son of Yanyulou, the little one didn't pay attention to what he said before, and this little bit of silver should be honored, no wonder. ”

....

It took a long time to explain that Wei Changpan, who had made this man nervous and took back the money bag, did it on the bamboo raft and said with a wry smile:

"Uncle, I have something to do with Yanyulou, but how can the money earned by Uncle be handed over to me for no reason. ”

Those gluttons in Yanyulou have recently changed their sexuality, and there is such a good talkative master? The man muttered in his heart, but he didn't dare to talk to Wei Changpan anymore, and he also exerted twelve points of strength.

The boss of the boat, who was born and raised in Li County, was almost all miserable by the filial piety silver collected by Yanyulou, and the filial piety of the ferry was two out of ten of the silver money, and how many families were willing to bear it? Those who could go went to other counties, and those who couldn't go didn't have much interest in earning silver, and there was just a day without a day.

Wei Changpan, who listened to this man's words, was a little sad.

The boat here added with great emotion.

It is not easy to live in the woods.

The bamboo raft carried the heavy load of the two of them to the county of Mai Li.
