Chapter 1509 The Sandpiper and the Fisherman(1/2)
Chenglingji, Chenglingji, the Yangtze River and Dongting Lake meet here, and merchants from all directions gather.
Standing on the boat, looking over, the market was everywhere, and the pedestrians were endless, and they could not be seen at first sight.
He Zixu stood on the deck, with a calm look, slowly looking at the noisy and prosperous pier, and said softly: "Sure enough, the world is bustling, all for profit. The world is bustling, all for profit."
Cheng Zipei covered his lips and smiled: "You are just used to losing your book bag."
She is the daughter of Cheng Fei, the head of Yingu Taiyi Academy, and is also a junior sister of the "Zi" generation, and is loved by everyone.
It speaks naturally and casually.
"The ships are anchored in Chenglingji, and they all rely on gang forces."
Sima Zheng introduced to He Zixu: "In order to compete for berths, the wind of fighting for docks is prevalent. Sometimes it only takes force for a ship to fight for the land, and even dares to fight for life. Therefore, under the prosperity, the filth is everywhere, all because of the word "profit".
He Zixu was responsible for heavy responsibilities. As the head of Yingu Jiangling, he was ordered to serve and support.
Jiangling is the location of Changle Gong’s South House, an important intelligence hub connecting the north and south of Yin Valley.
Yin Gu ordered him to coordinate with the various places and help him with all his strength.
However, he also received a secret order from a higher level.
There is no need to tell He Zixu this secret order.
He Zixu sighed. In fact, there is something in his words. There is a proverb in the biography of the Grand Historian: A son of a thousand gold will not die in the market. Therefore, it is said: The world is bustling, all come for profit. The world is bustling, all for profit.
Fengsha is the immortal son of a daughter, and now he is in the city.
This is his worries.
Unfortunately, it cannot be said.
Yin Gu's hostility to wind and sand did not disappear because of wind and sand marrying Fairy Qing'e, but instead became more and more intense.
He didn't need Sima Zi to escort him in person when he came to Yuezhou, but he was so concerned that he probably had a purpose.
Sima Zheng laughed and said, "Everyone is living in a flock of people. In the end, they are only flying to the rotten land of size, like entering a stool of abalone. After a long time, they will be transformed with it. There are many enjoyments in it, and they are even overwhelmed!"
He Zixu looked at him and said without any politely: "If the granaries are full, you know etiquette, and if you have enough food and clothing, you know honor and disgrace. You just eat too much, dress too well, stand too high, and look down at the crowd without being ashamed, but rather proud."
Sima Zheng's face changed slightly, and he forced a smile and said, "Senior Brother taught me a very good lesson. Junior Brother, I will be taught."
He Zixu didn't say anything.
Anyone can hear that this is perfunctory.
"The snipe and clam fight, and the fisherman gains profit."
Sima Zheng said in a pun: "It is because the snipe pecks at the flesh of the clam and the belly of the clam and clams clamps their beak to save their lives. Both are involuntary. If they do not transcend, they are snipe and clam. The gentleman who releases the fisherman and does not forgive him. After all, the fisherman also needs to eat, right?"
He was dissatisfied in his heart, and even more unhappy, and he couldn't help but refute it.
He Zixu heard the implicit meaning in his words, looked at him, and asked lightly: "It seems that junior brother Zizheng is comparing to the fisherman, so who is the snipe now and who is the clam?"
Sima Zheng didn't expect him to be so keen, so he smiled dryly and covered up, "I just said it casually, senior brother doesn't have to take it seriously."
He Zixu sighed secretly. Sima Zi was upright and arrogant, and he was very impatient. He still wanted to be a fisherman?
Don't stop the fisherman from finally getting his hands broken by a clam and was blinded by a snipe.
...
Now it is the peak of shipping, and there are many ships passing through Chenglingji.
Ships entering Dongting upstream and downstream of the Yangtze River, ships entering Dongting.
The three waterways are densely packed, and they are so long that they can't see at first sight.
The climate in Yuezhou is very hot, with the south wind swaying, and it is still a single dress in October.
What's more, it's only late July.
Although the beginning of autumn is just over the last lunar month and the heat is not yet reached.
It's the hottest time of the year.
Waiting to queue up really makes people feel crazy.
Whether on the boat or on the dock, it seems that everyone is holding their anger.
Suddenly, the anger exploded.
At Chenglingji Pier, people began to chase and fight in groups.
Mars exploded and swept quickly.
The entire dock quickly fell into chaos.
There are people fighting everywhere.
From the dock to the street, and from the street to the alley.
There were as many as three or five people, and as many as hundreds.
The shouts of killing sounded like a battlefield.
It was so messy that no one was responsible for guiding the ship into the berth.
The already crowded waterway is immediately blocked.
It has become a custom to mix up Chenglingji, gangs and docks.
Small-scale fights are just daily, and they will last one at a time.
Even large-scale armed fights will occur once or twice a year.
After each time, the ownership of the dock land will change.
People who often run this waterway have long been accustomed to it.
The people at Chenglingji Market were even more calm and did not even close the stalls.
Although the market is close to the pier, no matter how powerful the pier is, it will not affect the market.
Because the docks are controlled by gangs, the rules are strict!
Even if you are crazy, no one dares to break the rules.
However, this time seems to be different from before.
It was chaotic until the evening, and the government did not respond at all.
Not to mention the army, even the yamen runners didn't come.
Several fires emerged in the market.
Under the moonlight, thick smoke rolled and fires soared into the sky.
Even Yuezhou saw it, this was unprecedented.
The public panic was inexplicably surprised by the senior officials from all sides.
Although those gangs are usually powerful, they are usually just major forces that can raise dogs.
If you grab the wharf, you will burn the goods when the fire breaks out. If the goods are burned, it will burn the owner's pot.
It must be stewed into a pot of dog meat soup by the owner.
What is the situation now?
Mr. Jue held his hands behind his back and watched quietly.
Suddenly, a follower said in close proximity: "After investigation, it was burned to the warehouses of the Yuezhou Branch of the Sanhe Gang, which must be man-made. The goods suffered heavy losses. It is roughly estimated that it is worth tens of thousands of yuan. The people who set fire are very meticulous and do not affect other reasons. The reasons are to be investigated."
A common man is one thousand coins, a ten thousand coins is one hundred million coins, and a hundred thousand coins is one hundred million coins.
Tens of thousands of coins are more than 100 million.
The most important thing is that these are not goods from the Yuezhou Branch, but are stored in the Yuezhou Branch warehouse.
Of course, you have to pay.
The follower paused slightly and asked, "Do you intervene?"
Mr. Jue was silent for a little, shook his head and said, "It's a good thing. At least Shunfeng can't get in for a while."
He turned around and asked, "Is there any news about the Fengjun?"
The follower became nervous and replied carefully: "I guess he should go back to Shunfeng, otherwise he would not leave."
"I guess? It should?" Mr. Jue said coldly: "I guess you should be dying."
The follower shivered and shouted: "I'll go check it myself and check it carefully."
Mr. Jue called him and said, "What's going on over the Junshan fleet? Is Hai Dongqing still carrying it?"
"Huang Yanbao has already threatened her enough, but she still refuses to submit the order."
The entourage was sweating coldly on his forehead and whispered: "After all, she is the leader of the Junshan fleet, and she is highly respected. Not long ago, she was promoted to law enforcement. There are many diehard people. Now she is hiding on the Diaoying and will never get off the ship. It is really impossible to deal with her..."
Huang Yanbao was the former deputy envoy of the Wuping Army, and the navy commander of the navy's capital, also known as the navy's capital.
However, his head is much larger than that of Li Hanzhang, and he is in charge of the entire Wuping Navy.
