Chapter 8: Salt Conflict

For several days, Miao Xian didn't see Fang De, so he asked his daughter during dinner: "Why haven't you seen Young Master Fang these days, what is he busy with?"

Miao Cuihua said: "He has been really busy these days, and he doesn't come back until late every day!"

"And what is he doing?"

"In the past few days, he has been busy signing contracts with foreigners, and what Wen Tailai has to accompany when he comes back every day, how can he have time to pay attention to us?" Miao Cuihua said extremely dissatisfied: "Maybe he won't think of us until he is free." ”

Miao Xian said: "You mean he is accompanying Heaven and Earth to run the thunder hand Wen Tailai?"

"Yes, I heard that they are sworn brothers," Lei Cuihua said, "and the man surnamed Wen was very generous, and gave me a pair of bracelets as soon as we met." She took the bracelet out of her bosom, and the jade bracelets were delicate and clear, obviously worth a lot of money.

Miao Xian picked it up and watched: "This seems to be very expensive!"

Miao Cuihua said: "But he gave Li Xiaohuan a string of pearl necklaces. ”

"The gift you have is already good, in their minds, Li Xiaohuan is their sister-in-law. ”

Miao Cuihua said very uncomfortably: "But what else will that Li Xiaohuan do besides causing trouble, I really don't know what Fang De likes about her." ”

Miao Xian smiled: "Are you angry about this?"

Miao Cuihua said: "I just can't get used to her delicate appearance." ”

Miao Xian sighed: "You better take care of yourself." ”

Miao Cuihua smiled: "Daddy, have you heard of the leg method all the way, what does it seem to be called...... What a thread. ”

"Is it a thread to the moon?"

"Yes!"

Miao Cuihua's eyes became bright: "It's a thread of Huaiyue, can you teach me this leg method?"

Miao Xian smiled bitterly: "Don't think that you know all martial arts?"

Miao Cuihua was a little surprised: "Dad doesn't know how to do this?"

Miao Xian said: "Huaiyue line was originally created by Ouyang, the old gang leader of the Salt Gang, unintentionally, he swept both sides of the Jianghuai River with this leg method, and subdued the thirty-four rudder of the Salt Gang, and became the chief leader of the Salt Gang, however, this road leg method is only so famous because of his daughter Ouyang Sihai, she originally only had a seven-way leg method of Huaiyue Line Lead, evolved into a seventeen road, more blue, especially when she faced the Peng family Seven Tigers on behalf of her father, so that the name of this road leg method moved the rivers and lakes, and established her status in the rivers and lakes. ”

"But I've never seen her practice martial arts?"

"People who are beginners in martial arts must continue to practice hard in order to continue to improve, but when you reach a certain level, that is, you can practice in line, sit and practice, lie down and practice, every move is practiced, they have integrated martial arts into every move in ordinary times, there is no need to practice hard like ordinary people, especially Mrs. Fang's inner boxing, it pays attention to a word, the higher the understanding, the faster the progress. ”

"You mean I'm dumber than her?"

Miao Cuihua was very dissatisfied with her father's praise of Ouyang Sihai.

"At least she's better informed than you are. Miao Xian said: "If you don't want to lose to her, you have to change the rules, so that you won't be annoying." ”

"Then who said that about his daughter?" Miao Cuihua stood up unhappily and walked out, but she had just taken two steps, but she stopped again: "Fang De asked me to tell you, let you go to Zishui Street tomorrow morning." ”

Miao Xian's eyebrows locked slightly: "Why did you let me go to Zishui Street?"

"I can't tell you this in advance, he said he was going to surprise you. Miao Cuihua said: "Anyway, my words have already arrived, and it's up to you whether to go or not." Miao Cuihua said stupidly: "You must know that if you belittle me like this, I won't agree to Fang De to send you a message!"

Miao Xian smiled: "Then the daughter and the father are arguing?"

Fangjia is located in the center of Hangzhou City, surrounded by four streets, these four streets are Zishui Street, Jinshui Street, Sweet Water Street, Qingshui Street, I don't know when there is such a legend in the rivers and lakes, no matter who you are, no matter what you have committed elsewhere, even if it is murder and arson, but as long as you walk into the four streets, it is absolutely safe, even the government can not go in to arrest people. However, no one is allowed to leave the four streets, nor is he allowed to cause trouble here, although this is only a legend, but no one has ever doubted it, and those who come here have always followed this unwritten rule, and have lived and worked here in peace, no one has ever left, and no one has ever come here to find trouble.

As soon as he walked here, Miao Xian knew that this street was the land of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and there were many masters. For example, the pork Rong who sells meat, his knife skills are sharp, so that Ah San, who is quick in one hand and carries water, walks steadily, although the shopkeeper of the restaurant is a standard businessman, but his hand in finding the abacus is very fast, the fat aunt who sells eggs is a master of Taipingmen, and even the little girl who sells art on the street is also the knife of Wufeng Chaoyangmen...... , and what makes Miao Xian strange is that her daughter is very familiar with these people, and she can accurately call out everyone's name and greet them affectionately.

"You know these people well?"

"I've just been here a few times with Mrs. Fang and Brother Fang. ”

"What the hell are you guys doing?"

"You'll know when you get there. Miao Cuihua pulled her father and walked quickly.

She walked so fast that even Miao Xian couldn't keep up.

Miao Xian smiled bitterly, she really couldn't think of what tricks her daughter and Fang De were playing.

Soon, he met Fang De, who was standing in front of a shop on the street, watching a guy hanging a plaque, struggling, while next to Fang De there were many greeting customers. An old man standing beside Fang De was directing: "On the first day of junior high school, have you eaten, you can't even hang a plaque, a little to the left, a little higher." ”

The guy who was called the first year of junior high was very aggrieved: "Uncle Cai, I only have one pair of hands, can you come up and help?"

"Useless things," Uncle Cai jumped up, took the door plaque from Chu Yi's hand, hung it up, and landed steadily.

When he fell, the audience had already burst into warm applause.

When the applause rang out, Chu Yi fell from the ladder, and at this moment everyone's faces changed, no one thought that this kind of thing would happen, but just when Chu Yi was about to land, a strong hand supported his waist and put him down gently, and when everyone saw that Chu Yi was safe and sound, they breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank you, Uncle Cai!" After Chu Yi stood firm, he hurriedly thanked him, but when his words came out, he found that it was a strange middle-aged man who was holding him, and he was stunned for a while.

"First year of junior high school, you have no conscience, it was my father who saved you, how can you thank Uncle Cai. ”

It was Miao Cuihua who said this.

"It turns out that you are Uncle Miao," Chu Yi hurriedly said, "Thank you, Uncle Miao." ”

Fang De said to everyone at this time: "Master Miao is the new owner of this fish shop, from now on, everyone is a neighbor, since they are all neighbors, I hope you don't see each other in the future, and you will be more popular in the future." ”

After listening to Fang De's words, everyone responded with warm applause.

Miao Xian was very surprised: "Young Master Fang, you said that I am the owner of this fish shop, what is going on?"

Fang De said: "I heard Miss Miao say that you want to open a fish shop, so I found this fish shop for you, why didn't Miss Miao tell you." ”

Miao Xian immediately turned her gaze to her daughter.

Miao Cuihua was laughing: "I just want to surprise my father." ”

Miao Xian said to Fang De at this time: "I always bother you, I'm really sorry." ”

"Master Miao is really too polite," Fang De smiled: "If you really don't want to go, just let me borrow from you, and return it to me when I make money later, but now there are a lot of customers, please open the market, now I have to go to the store, if the shop is short of anything, you can go to the nearby store to get it, and everything will be recorded in my account." ”

"Thank you for your kindness, Miao Xian thank you a lot," Miao Xian said: "I know that your noble family is busy, so I won't keep you more." ”

"We'll see you in the afternoon. ”

Then Fang De went to the Fang Long.

On this day, the business of the fish shop was surprisingly good, and before noon, all the fish were sold.

Miao Cuihua was very happy: "I didn't expect the business of the fish shop to be so good, and it will be difficult to make a fortune in the future." ”

"You think this is your father's ability, that's the face that everyone gave Young Master Fang. ”

"So you're convinced of him. ”

"It's really not easy for him to hold up the Fang Long at such a young age. Miao Xian said.

Miao Cuihua smiled and said, "I don't think he has anything remarkable." ”

"Don't be ashamed!" Miao Xian said, "If you can learn one-tenth of his ability, Dad won't have to worry about you." ”

"I'm not that inferior!"

"Anyway, you can settle down in the future, don't let me go out and cause trouble. ”

"Yes, got it. ”

From this day on, Miao Xian's father and daughter began to officially settle in the four streets and became a part of the four streets.

Their father and daughter have a place to stay, but the Salt Gang and the Cao Gang have quarreled again.

The reason is that a batch of goods escorted by the Cao Gang was robbed in Baicaotan, and none of the people on the boat survived, but Baicaotan was the territory of the Salt Gang, so the people of the Cao Gang thought that the Salt Gang had taken away their goods, and asked the Salt Gang about the guilt, and the leader of the Salt Gang at that time was Ouyang Sihai's senior brother Nalan Jianchu.

Since these two families have a deep friendship with the Fang family, Fang De can only come forward to make peace for them in person, and the place to make peace is in Deshun Building.

Fang De personally poured wine for Nalan Jianchu and Li Bashan: "I hope you two can calm down in this matter, don't fight on impulse, there will always be a day when the merits will be revealed, if you find out that this is just a misunderstanding, then the dead person is too worthless, and everyone has been living together peacefully for so many years, there is no major holiday, isn't it?" His words were very tactful.

Before Li Bashan could speak, he heard a voice like thunder: "Master Fang, it is very unfair for us to do this, the Yan Gang is your wife's maiden family, if something happens, you will definitely protect it." ”

It was the voice of Lei Laohu, who had come straight up from downstairs.

"It's you again!"

Fang De's gaze locked on Thunder Tiger.

"At this time, of course Master Fang doesn't want to see me," Lei Laohu said, "Because I said what you wanted." ”

"I don't have anyone to protect," Fang De said, "but things have to be clarified, and the merits have to be clear......

"This is simply redundant," Lei Laohu said vigorously: "We are all people in the rivers and lakes, fists and feet are the truth, whoever has good fists and feet will be justified, as long as the Li gang leader wins the Nalan gang leader in his fists and feet, even if the salt gang does not grab this batch of goods, they have to spit it out, otherwise even if the salt gang robs this batch of goods, it is not a big deal." ”

Fang De looked at Lei Laohu: "I know that there is this unwritten rule in the rivers and lakes, but I don't like this rule, because martial arts can't solve everything, it will only increase the hatred of each other, so that the fight will continue from generation to generation, and it will not solve the fundamental problem, and I believe that the two gang leaders don't want to solve the problem like this, after all, both sides have lived a stable life for a few years, and they have re-embarked on the road of fire and merger back then, which is not good for anyone, but the dead are all bitter brothers." ”

Lei Laohu asked, "Then what do you want to do?"

"This matter must be resolved in a peaceful way," Fang De said word by word: "After all, the two gangs of Yan and Cao have had a few years of stable life, and this day is not easy to come by, we must cherish it, and I suspect that someone is doing something wrong with this matter." ”

Lei Laohu asked, "What evidence do you have?"

Fang De was saying: "I'm just saying one thing, think about it carefully, if you want to rob other people's goods, will you do it on your own land? Others just want to cause infighting between the two of you in Baicaotan, so that they can take advantage of the situation, and besides, the Cao Gang's boat was in distress in the Huai River last year, or the Yan Gang brothers, it was 500,000 taels of silver, since they didn't even have the heart to move the 500,000 taels of goods, how could they care about the 50,000 taels of goods?"

"What Young Master Fang said is," Li Bashan nodded again and again, and then he said to Nalan Jianchu: "Brother Nalan, it's the old man who blames you." ”

"Senior Li is serious," Nalan said at the beginning: "Although we didn't touch this batch of goods, since it happened on the territory of the Salt Gang, our Salt Gang can't stay out of the matter, and we must join forces with your gang to find out this group of robbers." ”

Li Bashan said: "Then thank you, brother." ”

Nalan said when he saw the beginning: "Salt, Caoben is a family, and it is too foreign to say these words." ”

Lei Laohu sneered: "The bones of the brothers who died in the Cao Gang are not cold, how long do you plan to delay?"

"Three days," Fang De replied forcefully, "If there is no news in three days, Fang De will withdraw from the business world from now on." ”

"Okay!" Lei Laohu laughed: "I'll give you three days, and after three days, I'll wait for your news." ”

Thunder Tiger turned away in laughter.

After Lei Laohu left, Li Bashan was already asking Fang De: "Could it be that you already have clues?"

"I'll leave this matter to me," Fang De said, "What you have to do is to restrain your own helpers so that they don't be used by others." ”

"Are you suspicious of Thunder Tiger?"

Fang De said: "Thunder Tiger is by no means simple, you better be careful. ”
