Even if there is a Peach Blossom Spring, it is definitely not a scenic spot.

Otherwise they will definitely have heard of it.

"If Mr. Xia wants to find that peach blossom garden, he might as well ask the boat gang." The shopkeeper smiled after serving tea to Xia Yanzhen.

"What is the boat gang?" Xia Yanzhen asked.

"The Chuan Gang is the largest local gang in Yuhang." The shopkeeper said with a smile, "I happen to know the leader of the Chuan Gang, Hall Master Li, and I can introduce him to him."

"A gang?" Xia Yanzhen asked curiously, "Is it very powerful?"

"Mr. Xia came from another place and didn't know anything. The boat gang has the ability to collect money and food from my Yuhang territory." said the shopkeeper.

"oh?"

Xia Yanzhen was still confused and didn't quite understand.

It's just a gang, why does it sound so loud?

Seeing that Xia Yanzhen still didn't understand, the shopkeeper confirmed that this gentleman was indeed an unworldly noble man and definitely came from a wealthy family. He just didn't know why he came to Yuhang alone.

runaway?

The shopkeeper explained to Xia Yanzhen.

It turns out that the boat gang he was talking about was completely different from the sewer and sunset industrial gangs that Xia Yanzhen understood.

Boat gangs are legal.

It collects taxes from the people on behalf of the government.

Ordinary people don't want to be repeatedly exploited by officials, so they find a capable person to help them pay taxes.

In ancient times, productivity was underdeveloped, imperial power did not go to the countryside, Yuhang was a prosperous place, and the task of collecting taxes was heavy.

The government also needs someone to collect money for them - especially those in rural areas.

Otherwise, there simply won’t be enough manpower.

Over time, gangs with similar functions were formed.

Gangs like the Boat Gang are an extension of the government's power and can be put on the table as reasonable and legal.

Naturally, the boat gang not only collects taxes, but other gang businesses are also developing.

Protection fees are also required.

In addition, Yuhang's water system is developed, and many people rely on rivers and lakes for their meals, and they are also "managed" by boat gangs.

In short, the Boat Gang is the local snake in Yudi territory.

The members are numerous and well-informed.

It is easier to go to the boat gang to get information than to go to the Yamen.

Because even if you go to the Yamen, the Yamen will get information through the boat gang.

It's better to go directly to the Chuan Gang. The threshold of the government office is high and you can't get in. It's much easier to get in with the Chuan Gang.

"I see."

Xia Yanzhen nodded, "Then please ask the shopkeeper to recommend it to me."

"Of course there is no problem with the introduction, but I want the ship's help to do something..." The shopkeeper laughed, showing an expression that everyone understood.

"How much?"

Xia Yanzhen asked.

"This depends on how far Mr. Xia wants the boat gang to go," the shopkeeper said.

Different prices have different service methods.

"do the best."

Xia Yanzhen directly put all the banknotes he just took on the table.

Rich and wealthy.

"It's easy to say! Mr. Xia is really grand!" The shopkeeper extended his thumb to praise and put away the banknotes smoothly, "I'll go over to Hall Master Li right away. Quick, please invite Mr. Xia to sit in a private room!"

This money is enough for Hall Master Li to make a trip.

As for services, that's another price.

Xia Yanzhen stayed in the elegant room for a while.

There was a noise from downstairs.

Soon, the shopkeeper pushed open the door and came in with a few people.

The leader is a thick-set man with a sinister face, a very classic gang member image.

"Mr. Xia, this is the leader of the Boat Gang, Li Heihu." The shopkeeper introduced.

This name is even more gangster, and it's also very one-of-a-kind.

Xia Yanzhen nodded.

Li Heihu glanced at Xia Yanzhen with squinted eyes, strode to him and sat down in front of him: "Shopkeeper Lin told me, do you want to find a place?"

"Yes. Have you ever heard of Peach Blossom Spring?" Xia Yanzhen asked.

"In my territory of Yuhang?"

"Um."

The mission information clearly states that it is Yuhang Peach Blossom Land, so there is no problem.

You can't put it in a certain corner of the mission world and call it Yuhang Peach Blossom Land. That would be too confusing.

God's Dream will not leave the Dream Situ in a place that is thousands of miles away from the mission location and completely unrelated.

"Yes, as long as you can find it in my Yuhang territory. If my boat gang can't find it, no one can find it." Li Heihu said, "I wonder how much Mr. Xia is willing to pay to hire my boat gang to do things."

Woolen cloth?"

"How long will it take to find it?"

"How long do you want, Mr. Xia?"

"Getting better and better."

Li Heihu laughed, but two teeth were missing: "Then the price is not cheap."

Xia Yanzhen reached out and pushed the teacup in front of Li Heihu.

Li Heihu opened the teacup with a smile, his smile froze for a moment due to surprise.

The teacup is not full of tea, but full of golden beans.

Golden beans with irregular shapes.

"enough?"

Xia Yanzhen asked.

While he was waiting just now, he crushed a lot of gold and kneaded it into small beans.

Gold is something that can be used in most worlds, and it is easy to shape into small balls.

The smile on Li Heihu's face became even brighter. He took out one of them, weighed it, and pinched it again.

He took out the second one.

Check it out one by one.

Xia Yanzhen was not in a hurry and drank another cup of tea prepared by shopkeeper Lin himself.

To be honest, Shopkeeper Lin can't understand Mr. Xia in front of him now.

I originally thought that he was a young man who had left home and was inexperienced in the world, but now he is not at all inferior when facing a vicious person like Li Heihu, and he is able to handle it with ease.

It seems that he is not just a descendant of an official.

I am definitely not an ordinary person, and I am not just an official disciple from a noble family.

Not a dandy, let alone a fat sheep.

"The sooner the better." Li Heihu put the golden beans back into the tea cup one by one and pushed them back, his tone became solemn, "That would require our entire boat gang to move, and this is not something that I, the little hall leader, can make the decision.

"I need to ask our gang leader for instructions."

"Okay, go ahead."

"Okay, then how are we going to find you, Mr. Xia?"

"What's the name of the best inn in the city?"

"Beside Qinghu Lake, Qingyue Tower." Li Heihu smiled, his smile a little different from the first.

"Then go over there." Xia Yanzhen stood up.

"Mr. Xia, do you need me to help you prepare the carriage? It just rained and the road is difficult." Shopkeeper Lin asked immediately.
