Volume 2 Floating Life This is Ren Drifting 4 Miryang Harbor
Seeing the rat who was still showing his merits, Chen Muyang sneered: "You little demon knows a fart, you don't know who you are saving!
The rat scratched his ears and cheeks anxiously, standing lonely on the coffee table, thinking left and right, thinking that the master was so puzzled, was there something wrong.
On the second day, when the wind was getting lighter, the old boatman made a pot of millet porridge with some dried shrimp and wild celery in it, which tasted very delicious. Chen Muyang asked Wang An to bring two bowls to the two girls in the front cabin.
After breakfast, Chen Muyang walked out of the cabin and breathed in the cold air of the early morning, the river was shrouded in a thin layer of mist, and the withered and yellowed reeds on the river surface rose and fell with the morning breeze. He threw off his arms and moved a few times, and his limbs were a little numb from the wind and waves that night.
"Childe, the two girls I saved yesterday want to thank you in person, please come into the cabin and see you. Wang An came out of the front cabin and said excitedly, "Childe, that young lady is really like a fairy, I have never seen such a beautiful girl!"
There are beautiful women everywhere in the cultivation world, and you can have whatever you want. Chen Muyang himself is single-minded, and he is not interested in love and love, and he has no special emotions for beauties.
But he still has to see him, so he nodded: "Then go and meet!"
Wang An lifted the curtain, Chen Muyang bent down into the cabin, and saw a delicate girl with a double bun standing on the side of the couch, combing the hair of the girl sitting on the couch.
The girl was supposed to be the owner of the maid, wearing Chen Muyang's white brocade straight and deep clothes, and the green silk like a waterfall was tied up with a white silk ribbon, revealing a snow-white slender neck.
She heard the sound of someone coming in, and when she turned around, a pair of eyes like autumn water could almost reflect the figure in them. If it was a mortal, then when he saw this woman, he would think of words such as peerless and bright to describe her beauty.
But Chen Muyang felt a strong aura of agility for the first time. As if this girl was the elf favored by heaven and earth, the aura between heaven and earth automatically gathered on her body.
Sure enough, it's almost as I guessed, this woman is not simple!
Seeing Chen Muyang come in, the girl took the maid and said deeply: "The little girl Zhang Yu thanked the son for saving his life!"
Zhang Yushu raised his head, and his bright eyes saw Chen Muyang's appearance: he was slender, wearing a cyan robe, his hair was meticulously restrained by jade crowns and hostas, and his face was cold, as if he had a temperament that rejected people thousands of miles away.
Chen Muyang said lightly: "Saving people's lives is a great merit, and girls don't have to be like this." ”
Zhang Yushu straightened his waist and saluted again: "Yushu dares to ask the name of the son, my father Zichuan is waiting for Zhang Xun, and the grace of saving his life will be rewarded in the future." ”
Chen Muyang nodded and said: "Under Chen Yun, the girl is blessed, and we can save the girl by chance!"
As a clever dog-legged, Wang An stood up with great pride at this time and said: "My son-in-law is a descendant of the Yingyin Chen family!"
"It turned out to be the descendant of the Chen family of the Tianxia Sect! It's rude!" Zhang Yushu said with a smile.
Wang An's side was immediately confused, and Chen Muyang calmed down and asked, "I don't know what Miss Zhang's plans are next?"
Zhang Yushu said: "My fall this time must be a plot of the enemy, I heard that Gongzi is also going to Yuedu, I want to ask Gongzi to send my master and servant to Miryang Port." The transshipment envoy of Miryang Port is my uncle, and he can protect me when I return to Vietnam. ”
Chen Muyang was silent for a moment, nodded and said, "Yes, please have a good rest for the two girls, and tell Wang An if you need anything!"
After speaking, Chen Muyang pulled Wang An to say goodbye.
After Chen Muyang left, the maid immediately took a few breaths and said, "Miss, I have never seen such a cold person! ”
That Miss Zhang Yushu sat on the couch, holding her cheeks in her hand, her eyebrows raised, and her expression was a little puzzled: "Mo Dye, I always feel that this Chen Yun is a little familiar, as if I have heard of it somewhere." Ink dyeing, have you ever heard of it?"
The maid said with a smile: "Miss, the population of the world is hundreds of millions, and there are hundreds of millions of people in Yue Country alone, and it is common for someone to have similar names, so Miss don't worry! ”
"Childe, the boat is now entering Lake Miryang!" said Fauber, who came in from outside the cabin.
Chen Muyang nodded and said, "Inform the two girls in the front cabin later, Fu Bo, you take Wang An to send the two girls ashore, and send them to the transfer envoy Yamen and come back immediately!"
Fauber nodded and went out. Chen Muyang lifted the curtain, and the calm and boundless water surface of Miryang Lake appeared in front of him, and as far as the eye could see, the high embankment on the shore of the lake was already vaguely seen in the distance.
Lake Miryang is a large lake on the Yingchuan side, and the entrance to the Anmin Canal is on the side of the lake.
Thanks to the benefits of Anmin Canal to transfer goods from all over the world, Miryang Port has become the first customs port in the inland area. Therefore, the Yue State has set up a transshipment envoy here, specifically to manage Miryang Port and Anmin Canal, which is the world's first-class fat difference.
The old boatman carefully controlled the rudder, and said with a relaxed look on his face: "We will arrive at the port in half an hour, and Miryang Port is a good place! There is nothing that cannot be bought in the north and south of the river!"
Fu Bo also nodded and said: "It will take more than half a month to cross the river from Miryang Port to cross the Minxin Canal, and the food, medicinal herbs, and charcoal on the ship will also have to be purchased! ”
It's rare to see only a breeze on the lake, and the afternoon sun shines through the window ridges on the side of the cabin, giving you a warm atmosphere. Chen Muyang leaned on the edge of the couch, holding a copy of the Yin Fu Sutra in his hand, and studied it carefully.
After entering the port of Miryang, a small sampan rowed over, and on the sampan was a green-clothed tax collector, who saw the old ship's family and said loudly on his toes: "Is it transporting people or transporting goods? All the people transported are 300 yuan, and the value of the goods transported is three out of ten!"
When the old boatman heard this, his face fell, and he arched his hand and asked: "Dare to ask about the tax order, didn't it be a penny before, why is the price so much now?"
The green-clothed little official, a disdainful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Three hundred dollars is three hundred dollars, can you resist taxes as an old thing?"
Wang An saw the face of this little official and knew that this little official was a card for benefits, and he was angry and suddenly didn't fight anywhere, this unpopular little official dared to ask for Yingyin Chen's boat, he really didn't know that the sky was high and the earth was thick.
He sneered loudly: "Little green-clothed soap, dare to block my ship, don't you want to eat this meal of the official family?"
When the green-clothed little official heard this, he laughed angrily: "Where did the little bastard come from, he dares to say wildly, come here, take him to the tax customs and detention room for me! If you don't give them some power, you really want to underestimate the power of my Miryang Port Tax Department!"
This Miryang port communicates the north and the south, is the north and the south are rushing, the dragon and the snake are mixed, and there are often people who resist taxes, so the tax department yamen is equipped with six tax collectors for each tax collector. Two men carried shields and swords, two armed with spears, and two with bows and arrows.
As soon as the tax collector spoke, several tax collectors immediately rowed their sampans and approached the boat, pointing their swords and guns at the few men standing on the deck of the ship.
The old boatman was so frightened that he did not dare to move. Fu Bo lifted the curtain of the cabin and walked out, looked around and rebuked loudly: "My son-in-law is the descendant of the Yingyin Chen family!
As soon as the green-clothed tax collector saw Fauber appear, he knew that he had kicked the iron plate. Fu Bo was dressed in a black dark pattern satin jacket with a jade belt around his waist, and he was tall and noble. At first glance, it is not an idle person.
As soon as the tax collector heard that it was Yingyin Chen, he showed a surprised expression on his face, but he still said forcefully: "How can Yingyin Chen's family take such a small boat! You dare to use Chen's name, I have to go on the boat today to inspect it, and if anyone dares to stop me, I will be shot to death with random arrows." ”
Just when the tax collector was clamoring to get on the ship, the maid in the front cabin also came out, crossed her hands on her waist and said: "My young lady is the niece of your family's transfer envoy, and the granddaughter of Zhongshu Ling, you dare to make a mistake?"
"That's what you're waiting for!" The tax collector and the group suddenly had a mask on their faces, and in the next breath, countless thunder beads, talismans, flying swords, and steel forks flew towards the awning boat in front of them.
