The seventh day of July in the twenty-third year of Zhaohua.

Qi Qiao Festival!

This is supposed to be the time when the girls who have not left the palace gather together under the moon and thread needles into the moon, or when the women lay out their tributes and pray to the sky, express their wishes, and ask for children and love.

But just this evening, it rained heavily in Guangling City.

This rain greatly disappointed the long-awaited women and the unmarried men who were also looking forward to it.

The girls who were ready to show off their sewing skills in front of the unmarried men could only look at the rain outside the window and melancholy think about a certain boy they had fallen in love with.

The men had prepared poems and originally wanted to get a purse embroidered by a girl, but this guy also failed.

But this rain made Yang Sixian and Li Chenan feel that it came at the right time.

The two of them set out for Linfengdu in the rain, and it was still Wu Xichen who was driving the car.

"Have you ever been to that place?"

In the carriage, Yang Sixian asked Li Chenan this question.

Li Chenan shook his head and said with a wry smile: "You don't believe it, Mr. Yang, I haven't fully explored Guangling City yet, let alone Linfengdu."

Yang Sixian glanced at Li Chenan and confirmed that the information collected about Li Chenan was true.

But he was also a little confused.

Because from the past few days of getting along with Li Chenan, this guy is a very good person, and he is extremely skilled in dealing with the world of people. He doesn't look half like the fool he is rumored to be!

This kid has changed too much. Could it be that his past is just an act?

If this is the case, it means that this boy has great endurance, and his city is much larger than that of an ordinary boy.

But this is also a good thing.

The Ichthyosaur Society needs such people.

Prime Minister Ji also prefers such people.

"I've been to that place at Linfengdu three times including this time."

"Although it is a mixed place, it is undeniable that it is a good place!"

"Chaos, this is actually a good thing. Many people are afraid of chaos, so they avoid it. But here, you can get a lot of things from the chaos."

"For example, money, power, establishing a new order in the chaos, etc."

"Your predecessor, namely Song Yuanping, before his death, the headquarters gave him a task to gather the forces in Linfengdu in order to control the water transportation from Guangling."

“Water transportation is very important!”

"Going north from Linfengdu, you can reach Yujing City in Kyoto through the Yuguangdao Canal."

"Going south, you can reach Linshui City at the mouth of the Yangtze River."

"From Linshui City, you can go west to Shuzhou, and to the east... there are many counties and counties along the way until you reach the East China Sea."

Yang Sixian shut up when he said this, but Li Chenan understood the meaning of his words.

"Mr. Yang, I will handle this matter properly!"

Yang Sixian grinned, "But the Fish and Dragon Society can't provide you with much money!"

"I will find a solution for things like silver...but this matter will have to wait until I come back from Kyoto."

Yang Sixian nodded, "If you really succeed in this matter, I will definitely ask for credit at the headquarters for you!"

"Thank you, Mr. Yang, for your cultivation!"

In the carriage, listening to the patter of rain hitting the roof, an old man and a young man were chatting happily.

But at this moment, in the backyard of the Guangling government office, Cai Yutang had a sad face.

"It's a long way to Shuzhou. I've heard that the people in Shuzhou are fierce and lack education... Your Majesty, you have a heavy task here!"

Liu Zuo smiled slightly, patted open the clay seal of a pot painting Pingchun, poured two cups, and handed one cup to Cai Yutang.

"This issue cannot be unilateral."

"Chaos in Shuzhou also has its benefits. Only with chaos can there be governance, and with governance can there be political achievements. I think it is much better than staying in Guangling City as a coward."

"It's you... I don't know if Huo Chuanming can accommodate you when he takes office. After all, everyone in the government knows that you are mine."

Cai Yutang picked up the wine glass and took a sip, and then said cautiously: "So you should bring your superiors with you!"

"But you are different from me. Your family members are in Guangling City. As for me... my wife died early and my son died in infancy. I am alone and have nothing to worry about."

"You can take your wife and children with you!"

Liu Zuo turned to Cai Yutang, "That place in Shuzhou is really not as prosperous as Guangling!"

"I don't care about the prosperity here."

"Have you thought about it?"

"Think about it!"

"Then you go back and pack up now. Early tomorrow morning, we will go to Linfengdu together!"

Cai Yutang was overjoyed, cupping his fists and saluting: "Thank you, sir!"

"Don't thank me, I can't tell... I'll give you a big surprise when I go out!"

Cai Yutang was stunned, but Liu Zuo had no explanation.

…

…

This rain is getting heavier and heavier.

It was already dark when Li Chenan and Yang Sixian arrived at Linfengdu.

This is actually a town.

This town has become very prosperous because of the pier here, but such prosperity is only on days without wind and rain. Today, there are few pedestrians on the streets of this town.

But the teahouses and restaurants on the streets are still open, and the lanterns in front of the doors are still on.

The teahouses were now quiet, but the business of the wine shops was very good.

"Although there are very few boats sailing from Linfengdu to Yujing City due to the gang of water bandits in Shuangjiao Lake, there are still many boats going down."

The carriage was still moving forward in the rain on the bluestone pavement of the street. Yang Sixian opened the curtain and went out, and said again:

"Most of the people in the wine shops are boatmen or porters on the dock."

"They are actually members of certain gangs, such as the two most famous gangs in Linfengdu... one is called the Sihai Gang and the other is called Huanxi Tang."

"The entrance of the Sihai Clan is in the alley of Xiaodong Street, and the entrance of the Huanxi Clan is in the alley of Xiaobei Street."

"The Sihai Gang has the largest number of ships, seventy-six large and small."

"Huanxi Tang has the most porters, and the loading and unloading of goods at the dock is basically under the sole control of Huanxi Tang."

"The two are now gradually becoming evenly matched, so there is now a seemingly peaceful peace."

Yang Sixian lowered the car curtain and turned to Li Chenan, "There are several good people in these two gangs. If you want to win over these forces... you have to recruit more useful talents!"

Li Chenan nodded, with a stern look in his eyes, "Don't worry, Mr. Yang, these people in these gangs are just asking for a bite to eat. I think it's not too big for them who becomes their master."

important."

"I will come here in person some other day, and I will definitely give you a satisfactory result by then."

Yang Sixian smiled slightly. Li Chenan didn't mean death by his words, but his attitude showed his determination.

This is good.

The carriage came to a stop outside an inn.

Li Chenan got off the carriage and came to Yang Sixian's side holding an oil-paper umbrella.

Opening the door, he helped Yang Sixian get out of the carriage, and the two of them walked into the inn holding an umbrella.

They did not notice a woman wearing a raincoat and a bamboo hat on the roof opposite the inn.

She is Murong He.

She disappeared into the inn with the two of them behind.

She frowned slightly, and after a moment, she suddenly drew her sword and thrust the sword behind her with her backhand.

A hand stretched out from the night and happened to grasp the tip of her sword.

"Shh...!"

"If you don't stay with Su Muxin, why are you here?"
