Chapter 1112: Another Giant Deer Harbor
"From here to the national capital, it's only a few dozen miles." He Lingchuan patted him on the back, "You go back." After asking about the situation, he came to the capital to look for me. β
Ah Hao answered, walked forward for more than ten steps and couldn't help but turn back, but there was no one behind him.
Are these two strangers human beings or ghosts? But they were generous.
Ah Hao looked at the silver ingot in his hand, rolled his eyes a few times, and strode towards the alley where he had been beaten before.
His companion was still unconscious in the alley, covered with baskets.
As He Lingchuan said, this person can't wake up before tomorrow morning.
Ah Hao checked carefully, and there was no trace of the basket moving, and obviously no one noticed that the tall man was unconscious here.
It was only thirty or fifty steps away from the sea, and Ah Hao went to the mouth of the alley to look, quietly, no one passed by at all.
What a chance. He turned back into the alley, pulled a short knife out of his boot, and stabbed the tall man in the heart!
The tall man didn't move, and he lost his life in a daze.
Ah Hao was afraid that he would not die, so he stabbed him twice more in the heart, stabbing and scolding: "Feed your turtle grandson to fish, this is the end of offending your grandfather!" β
I can't beat you normally, but I'm afraid I won't be able to kill you today?
He wiped the blood from the knife on the tall man's clothes, and then casually opened a broken table leg and stabbed the wound, stirring it vigorously a few times. Then he dragged dozens of steps and threw his body into the sea.
The domestic sewage of nearby residents is all poured into this seaway, which smells bad and is rarely approached by people in normal times.
In order to prevent the body from floating, he also tied a large rock.
With a plop, the companion disappeared.
"You just sink here, and watch Lao Tzu rise in the future." Ah Hao clapped his hands, only to feel refreshed.
In the past six months, the tall man has played tricks on him and blackmailed him for money. Today, he finally spoke for himself.
As soon as the morning dawned, Ah Hao went to ask for two pot stall pancakes, which not only contained leeks, but also fragrant plum vegetables and fatty meat, which were so fat that they were oily in one bite.
The stall owner gave enough material but didn't dare to collect the money, Ah Hao stuffed him with three copper plates very arrogantly: "Take it!" No need to look for it. β
After eating and drinking, he went to the back of the abandoned house to pick up bricks and smashed his forehead.
I didn't dare to use my strength the first time, it didn't hurt me, and the second time I smashed the blood, and I could cover my head and go back to the gang.
When he saw the helper, he cried, saying that today he finally caught two fat sheep and made thirty taels of silver, but the tall man saw the huge amount of money, smashed him unconscious, and ran away with the money.
What kind of virtue is that tall man, the helper couldn't be clearer, and he believed seventy percent when he heard it, and while sending someone to ask for a tall man, he comforted Ah Hao a few words, and then gave him half a wound medicine to send him away.

"It's dawn, get up!" Someone above shouted while knocking on the bang, and squeaked the deck, "It's docked, Julu Harbor has arrived, hurry up and get off the ship!" β
Why did you dock at Julu Harbor again? He Lingchuan sat up when he heard the sound, and was stunned for a few breaths before remembering his task.
He was assigned by Zhong Shengguang to bring back the bright lantern from the Shining Gold Plain.
That thing was extremely important to the Red General.
So, here he is again.
"Boss, get off the boat!" Hu Min on the side happily picked up his bags.
Anyone who has been floating in the ocean for months will be so eager to set foot on land.
The ocean-going ship is a big cage that floats uncertainly.
The seafarers on the ship rushed down in a hurry, and only He Lingchuan followed slowly.
What's the hurry? He had just stepped on the docks here the other day.
They all disembarked at Julu Harbor, and they all had to look for the bright lanterns.
The world of coiling dragons and reality are almost superimposed.
When he yawned a second time, the door panel and the others joined him.
On this trip, he brought Hu Min, Door Panel, A Luo, and the elite team he had trained in Yuheng City, totaling ten people.
The door panel turned his neck as he walked, and made a gurgling sound: "After seventy or eighty days of drifting, mushrooms have grown on my mattress!" If Arlo hadn't said it was poisonous, he would have chewed it at night when he went to bed. β
The cabin was dark and damp, and there was a lingering stench of rotten feet, and it was not surprising that termites, rats, insects, and mushrooms grew.
At this time, there was another seafarer in his forties, with a little white hair, tall and thin.
"Mr. He!" He raised his hand to greet He Lingchuan, and there were wrinkles in the corners of his eyes when he smiled, "Let's say okay, get off the boat and stay at my house for two days!" β
This person's name is Wang Wei, he got on the boat in Daofeng Harbor and walked with the ship for more than ten days, but he was drinking with He Lingchuan for three or four days.
He is a private school teacher, and his home is in Julugang, and he has a holiday when the school is busy with farming, because the students have to go home to help collect grain.
There was no income during this time, so Wang Wei had to go out to run a single gang to subsidize the family.
His personality is enthusiastic, and he can talk to He Lingchuan and others very well.
"How can you take the nonsense you talk about when you drink?" He Lingchuan waved his hand, "There are so many of us who won't trouble you, just stay at the guest house." β
"How can that work?" Wang Wei's head shook like a wave drum, "Julugang has less than anything, but there are the most pickpockets." When you stay in a hotel at night, and when you wake up at dawn, you will be stripped of everything except what you are wearing! β
Hu Min smiled: "Isn't Master Wang also opening an inn during this time?" β
Wang Wei was serious: "That's different, it's different." My house is usually closed to outsiders. β
About to get off the boat in a blink of an eye, He Lingchuan looked at the trestle and said, "This pier has just been renovated?" β
The wood of the trestle seems to have just been painted, and the smell of tung oil has not yet dissipated, and there are not many barnacles attached to the rocky reef.
Also in Julugang, this pier is different from the one he saw a few days ago, it is very new.
The sailors who tied the ropes on the trestle heard it and replied: "It's not a renovation, it's just been built!" The city department paid for it, and it was only completed and put into use three months ago. β
got off the boat, although the sea breeze on his face also carried a strong fishy smell, He Lingchuan subconsciously stopped.
Is this Julu Harbor?
The berths on the side of the pier are almost full, and all kinds of merchant and fishing boats sway with the waves.
Lifu carries goods to and fro, like hard-working worker ants; The guests went up and down and bargained with the captain.
The buildings on the shore are old and new, but most of them have been renovated, and even if they have been patched, the faΓ§ade is clean.
The road is not as wide as the island of Sodin in Helingchuan, but it is relatively smooth.
In later generations, the most people on the docks were beggars and refugees.
But here, there are many donkey carts and ox carts parked by the wharf, and the coachmen are working hard to collect the work.
All in all, this port is about as busy as Baisha Port, and people come and go and know what they have to do.
In later generations, the Julu Port, both in terms of ships and passengers, was less than 30% of the number here.
Oh, did Julu Harbor ever be so prosperous?
Wang Wei asked He Lingchuan: "What's wrong?" β
"It's thriving here." He Lingchuan said truthfully, "Unexpected. β
