Chapter 100: Where there is progress, there is regress
Linhai Town.
On the pier, a young porter held a recruiting sign and walked boldly to meet the local porters. As he walked, he stretched his head and shouted at the porters: "One trip counts!
Don’t be deceived! One trip counts as one trip! If you don’t cheat and don’t cheat, one trip counts as one trip!”
Dozens of steps away, stood a dozen strong men in fine clothes and trousers.
"Damn it! I can't bear it anymore!" A strong man like an iron tower violently threw off his coat and was about to rush forward and beat the young porter.
The man next to him hurriedly took a few steps forward, grabbed him hard, and said sternly: "Come back! What are you doing! The boss hasn't spoken yet!"
"Boss! Say something!" The tower-like man glared at the middle-aged man standing in the middle.
"You don't even want to look at it. This is where the action starts?" The middle-aged man raised his chin towards Gu Yan's shed and glared at the man.
"What's wrong with the Crown Prince? The Crown Prince needs to be reasonable! They are obviously pretending to be the leader! Damn it, they are pretending to be the Crown Prince and don't care about it. They are poking holes in our faces. The Crown Prince doesn't care either. Let's beat them back. Prince
I'm going to take care of it? How can there be such a reason!" The iron tower man's face was so angry that he was deformed.
"Fourth, please calm down." An old man next to the middle-aged man patted the iron-tower-like Fourth, "Think about it, why did the Crown Prince stationed himself at this pier? When this shed was erected, the Crown Prince said
Clearly, this is to prevent anyone from fighting on our pier. If you rush forward like this, you are going to hit a knife edge."
"Master Sui is right." The man who held the fourth child put his coat on his shoulders, "Look at that boy's behavior. He just deliberately teases you. You can't help but rush up and beat him.
, it’s you who are causing trouble, just hold on tight, don’t worry, the boss will definitely have an idea.”
"Everything you say is reasonable, but here at the pier, if you are unreasonable and talk about fists, and if you don't fight to the death, this matter will not be settled!" The fourth child put on his outer coat and said angrily.
"You're right what I said. On this pier, it's all about fists and unreason." The middle-aged man snorted coldly.
"It's said that the defense will be changed the day after tomorrow." The old man next to the middle-aged man said in a low voice.
"Well, that's exactly what I'm planning to do, I'll take advantage of the change of defense." The middle-aged man narrowed his eyes slightly.
"It would be better to break one of the ten fingers." Lao Sui said in a very low voice.
"Well, there are quite a lot of them. Our family can't do it. You can make arrangements for everyone to get together. This is not our family's business. Those families are not stupid people. We should work together on this matter. It's best to change defenses the day after tomorrow.
Once and for all, we will eradicate them!" The middle-aged man squeezed out the words "cut the grass and eradicate them" from between his teeth.
Lao Sui hummed.
"Let's go, don't look any further." The middle-aged man turned around and walked back.

Gu Yan was wearing black-soled python pattern arrow sleeves and thin-soled fast boots. Facing the sea breeze, he watched a group of dozens of warships rushing towards him. When the sound of the bow breaking the waves came, huge white sails fell down.
, the command flag on the ship in the middle was swaying. Gu Yan looked at the rapidly changing command flag and smiled.
One by one, the warships approached the dock and dropped huge anchors.
Before the ship had stopped, the long gangplank was stretched out. Yang Qifan, the youngest son of the Prince of Changsha, dressed in military uniform, rushed down from the gangplank, rushed to Gu Yan, knelt down on one knee and said, "Your Majesty!"
"It's you who's here!" Gu Yan laughed, stretched out his hand to pick up Yang Qifan, and looked him up and down, "How many years have we not seen each other? It's been many years."
Gu Yan's throat cleared slightly.
Indeed, he has not seen him for many years.
That time before, before they strangled him and the emperor, the emperor and his wings who were killed first were Yang Qifan, who commanded the Jiangnan Navy. That time, they parted with hatred.
"How many years are there, Your Majesty!" Yang Qifan was choked up by Gu Yan's voice, and even shed tears, "Too much sentimentality! How many years are there! There are still three or four months left in three years."
Gu Yan stretched out an arm, put his arm around Yang Qifan, and hugged him hard.
"Your Majesty, that's true!" Yang Qifan also put his arm on Gu Yan's shoulders and hugged him hard.
"Now that you're here, I'm so hopeful." Gu Yan pushed Yang Qifan's shoulders with both hands and looked at him again.
"The order I received from my eldest brother was to protect the Crown Prince. I picked the people and the best of the Imperial Navy are all here. But the Crown Prince wrote me a letter saying that the important thing is your side and you want to do it."
What? Bloodbath the Customs and Excise Department?" Yang Qifan stood next to Gu Yan and his voice was very low.
"Clean!" Gu Yan corrected.
"That's pretty much it." Yang Qifan's voice rose, "These gangsters are becoming more and more greedy and ruthless. Whenever the elder brother mentions it, his teeth itch with hatred. According to the law, he will be killed. The blood will definitely be enough to kill that
The Customs and Excise Department scrubbed it inside and out!"
"Tomorrow night, the first battle." Gu Yan and Yang Qifan were whispering shoulder to shoulder.
Yang Qifan kept nodding his head, and after hearing the end, he raised his eyebrows and looked at Gu Yan, "No kill? No kill? Yes! Okay, I understand, I understand!"
"Go back to the ship and don't show your face for now. After tomorrow, speaking of it, you are just going south to protect the crown prince and don't care about anything else." Gu Yan explained with a smile.
"Don't worry!" Yang Qifan responded solemnly and looked at Gu Yan, "Have all the important matters been explained?"
Gu Yan nodded.
Yang Qifan laughed, "Let's talk about other things. I heard that you made a little confidant in Pingjiang City?"
Gu Yan raised his eyebrows, "Where did you hear that? Who told you nonsense?"
"Your aunt and my cousin said it in a letter to my eldest brother." Yang Qifan smiled.
Gu Yan snorted, "I knew it was her. She's so old and so out of shape all day long. How can she write a letter to your elder brother and get involved in this? She's so boring!"
"Well, I wrote several pages, saying that your little confidant is very cunning and not very good-looking. I also praised you, saying that at least you are not obsessed with beauty." Yang Qifan looked very interested.
Gu Yan looked at the sky speechlessly.
"Are you really obsessed?" Yang Qifan looked at Gu Yan's expression carefully.
"You just said it, and it doesn't look good. What am I obsessed with?" Gu Yan took out the folding fan and shook it open.
"I just want to ask you this, what are you obsessed with? Are you really obsessed?" Yang Qifan turned from right to left.
"It's not that I'm obsessed, what is it? I'm just a friend. You'll know it when you see him." Gu Yan reached out and pushed Yang Qifan back.
Yang Qifan was surprised, "Have I met? Can I meet? My friend? Then I really want to meet you."
"There are important things tomorrow night. You should go back quickly. Take a rest when you need to. Make arrangements quickly when you need to. Go back." Gu Yan waved his hand and rushed back to catch up with Yang Qifan.
"Don't worry, I'll go back then. See you tomorrow." Yang Qifan took a few steps and looked back once, waving twice.
Gu Yan waved a folding fan to signal him to go back quickly.
After watching Yang Qifan get on the boat, Gu Yan turned around and went back.
