It’s hard to believe that this is Boss Chen’s real name! Xiao Han looked at his tall, thick, bear-like body, and his face that was covered with flesh and had a few scars. No matter how you looked at it, he could be named Wenjun.
It has nothing to do with it!
It is estimated that he himself knows this, so he never shows his real name to others, but calls himself Boss Chen.
Some time ago, Mr. Chen was accidentally kidnapped alive by Liu Hongji in Lingfeng County!
At that time, he was really desperate and thought that he would have to give such a confused explanation in his life!
After all, anyone in the world who dares to slap a general of the country with a brick has never been heard of, let alone seen! People often say: If you are impatient, just go and swat the fly on the tiger's head!
It's better for you to just hit Qilin on the head with a brick. If you don't die now, who will?
But what Mr. Chen never expected was that just when he was thinking about coming back again eighteen years later, the general who had his head smashed by a brick was not killed.
He just punished himself severely, and then left him by his side, saying that he wanted to work for him to compensate for his loss!
As for why he had to work and lose money, and how much he had to pay, Mr. Chen, who was lucky enough to save his life, didn't ask at all, and he didn't even dare to ask! Anyway, compared to the fate of being quartered, he was still alive and breathing.
I am extremely lucky. It is better to live than to die. If I can live for one day, count it as one day.
Since the group of people arrived in Jiangnan, the journey immediately felt much smoother. At least they didn't have to climb mountains and wading rivers, cross mountains and ridges, and sleep in the wild from time to time, which made the group often even call the flowers on the roadside.
.
Now, in this prosperous place, there is a village within three miles and a city within nine miles!
If you are thirsty, there are street teahouses and restaurants where you can enjoy it.
If you are tired, there is an inn where you can rest.
This way of traveling is what suits Xiao Han best!
If it weren't for the fact that it was already approaching the New Year, Xiao Han would definitely spend a few days with him to enjoy the beauty of Jiangnan.
What a pity, what a pity!
With pity in mind, the group passed Changzhou and arrived at Runzhou two days later.
But today's Runzhou is no longer the run-down town it was back then, but has become a cargo transit point for the entire Jiangnan region!
Because it is winter and the waterways are frozen, when you enter the city, you will see countless docks at first sight. As for the long street, the most numerous are inns and restaurants with various signs, which also reflects the people here.
The prosperity of circulation!
As the saying goes, running water does not rot and door hinges do not suffer from beetles!
It is difficult to create wealth by staying in one place. Only this kind of flow of people and goods can drive more wealth and value, and make the originally poor town rich again.
Of course, more people and more wealth are not necessarily all good things! Driven by these two things, another thing will naturally be born in the world, and that is the world!
As a long-established gang in Runzhou, the Sanshui League quietly seized the opportunity at the beginning of Runzhou's revitalization and used it to monopolize most of the cargo transportation business. It was only since then that the Sanshui League became stronger and stronger.
It has become the number one gang in the city, and everyone in the city who wants to eat on the water will look at the face of the Sanshui Alliance.
Fortunately, although the Sanshui Alliance is powerful, it does not like to use its power to bully others. It has been running its own business peacefully. Except for those emerging gangs who do not know the heights and heights of the world, they rarely take action on weekdays. Even their gang leader,
It is also a kind of divine dragon that can never be seen before it is seen. It is rare for ordinary people to catch a glimpse of it.
But just today, the people living in Runzhou City were suddenly shocked to discover that the Sanshui League, which used to be extremely low-key in the past, had its door opened uncharacteristically for some reason! After that, the Sanshui League, who was known as the number one underground person in the city,
The leader of the Water Alliance even personally led his men out of the headquarters of the Sanshui Alliance and headed straight towards a group of pedestrians on the street.
"Xiao Hou!" When the horse gang leader saw Xiao Han and the others from a distance, he immediately quickened his pace and hurriedly greeted him, as if he was afraid that if he was a little late, he would cause displeasure to the other party.
"Chief of the Horse Gang!" When he saw the man approaching, Xiao Han smiled happily, raised his hand, and greeted him.
"Xiao Hou, why do you have time to come to Runzhou? When you come this time, I must let the old man entertain you well!" The leader of the caravan who came in a hurry saw that Xiao Han was still warm to him and didn't feel the slightest bit angry.
The folds of smile on his face suddenly melted away, and he nodded and bowed in a respectful manner, which made people who recognized him on the street drop their eyeballs!
As the current general manager of waterways in Runzhou and even the entire Jiangnan, this horse gang leader treats the magistrate as equals. When has he ever been so submissive to a person or a young man?! This
Young man, what is your identity?
For a time, speculation about Xiao Han's identity immediately spread among the crowd! Some guessed that he was the nephew of a certain court official, others guessed that he was a descendant of a big family, and some even speculated that he was a relative of the emperor.
!However, because the caravan leader’s voice was too low when he called Xiao Han and they were far away, there was no way to judge Xiao Han’s identity.
"Haha, we are just passing by this time. We will return to Chang'an soon." Xiao Han also noticed that the people around him were pointing at them, and frowned slightly. He wanted to retreat first, but when he saw the horse gang leader asking for help,
He looked pitiful, but he couldn't bear it anymore! In the end, he decided to answer the caravan leader's question first.
"Oh? Are you leaving so soon?" The horse gang leader was slightly stunned when he heard Xiao Han's answer. He seemed a little disappointed. After a moment, he raised his head and continued to ask expectantly, "Oh? What about staying for a day? Let Xiao Han
I will treat you well, Mr. Marquis! You may not know that without you, Mr. Marquis, this Runzhou and my Sanshui League would not be like what we are today! No matter what, you have to let me thank you very much.
you are not."
"One day?" Xiao Han was still hesitant, but Liu Hongji on the side couldn't help it. He drove his horse forward, raised his head and laughed loudly: "Okay! It's just the right time for us to be tired from the journey, so we can rest here for a day."
OK! "You! Arrange a place for me quickly. I want a room with a bath and hot water!"
When he said the last word about taking a shower, Liu Hongji deliberately emphasized his tone, and even his tone became a bit weird.
"Okay! Okay! Okay!" As a gangster, the horse gang leader couldn't understand the implication of Liu Hongji's words. He was immediately overjoyed, and then called someone to whisper a few words to him.
Then he stepped forward and personally pulled up the reins, leading Xiao Han and the others towards the city.
