935: Kanakuri District (Middle) [Course slip](2/2)
The tea guest continued to mock: "In the early years when the world was in chaos, there was a risk of being robbed when going out for business, but at least there were not so many ways. Alas, nowadays, there are not many bandits on the road, and everyone has changed their appearance. The government office is here..."
Shen Tang grabbed the tea cup and pursed his lips in silence.
The tea guest mistakenly thought that she did not know these things in the boudoir before, and for the sake of the broken silver, he persuaded her: "Ms., doing business is a science just like being a human being. If you want to do a good job in this business, let The elders in the clan have nothing to say. Take my advice and find a way to find a supporter. Without a supporter to look after you, you won't be able to harvest much food here. Even if you do, those unscrupulous people below will always bully other places. When people hand over food to you, they will be short of weight or put sand and gravel in it, or even urinate."
Shen Tang exhaled a breath of thick air.
"Listening to what you say is better than ten years of reading. The little girl can't say anything to let outsiders deprive her of her family, let alone let them snatch the family property. Where can I find the official debt and backer you just mentioned? I heard you speak clearly and eloquently. You must know the way."
Official debt, bribery in disguise.
Shen Tang is very strict in this area.
There are patrols and censors in various places to keep an eye on them. Over the past few years, fewer and fewer insects have been caught. She thought that these people were afraid of being killed by her, but now it seems that is not the case. These insects are obviously more covert. Hidden, haha.
The ghost steals food, and the official debt backer...
It's hard to say that there is no relationship between the two.
Jinli County really gave me a big surprise.
The tea guest came forward and showed Shen Tang a clear path.
"...You go north. There is a river a few miles away. Along the river bank, you will find the Qujianghu in Jinli County. If you see a flower boat with a red flag docking, go over and nod the sign. The leader will tell you who to look for..."
Shen Tang raised his eyebrows: "Is that okay?"
The tea guest smiled and said: "It depends on luck."
Shen Tang was a little angry: "Does this still depend on luck? Although I didn't give the top priority, I also knew that their prices were high. I spent money to find someone, but in the end I didn't even touch the threshold. Isn't this like being taken advantage of? Are you like this? Sis, are you trying to trick me?"
The tea guest explained: "It depends on your luck to meet the flower boat."
That flower boat doesn't dock often.
Shen Tang asked many more details.
The tea drinker knows everything for the sake of money.
Seeing that it was getting late, Shen Tang had to leave again.
He walked to the door of the inn, got on his motorcycle, glanced into the house, and whispered softly: "Go and send someone to check on this tea guest."
The other party knows too much.
And it happened to be able to solve her doubts.
She wanted to know who was behind the other party's back.
Shen Tang quietly took people to Zhechong Mansion again.
The chief of Zhechong Mansion was a strange-looking female general. Because of her outstanding performance in the attack on Kunzhou and her contribution in suppressing the rebels, she was promoted to the position of Captain Zhechong of Jinli County. She had never seen Shen Tang’s face, and Shen Tang did not reveal it to her. Their identity - until the matter is clear, none of these people can be trusted - they only said that they were sent to investigate the "case of grain theft by ghosts" and the "case of the disappearance of the supervisory censor".
There was nothing wrong with Captain Zhechong's reaction.
When Shen Tang showed off his token, he answered all questions.
When he mentioned his glamour, she stared angrily and scolded: "How could there be such a shameful thing? Those old madams are really disgusting!"
Qujianghu is an iconic place in Jinli County.
The scenery here is pleasant, and local literati and flirts like to hang out here. Over time, many industries have spawned, such as the red light industry, where beautiful and young flower girls entertain customers on flower boats. It is said that when this place was at its peak, there were more than a hundred people gathering on the lake. Flower boat.
Every night, music and singing continue.
However, that was all in the past.
Since Kunzhou was completely captured by Shen Tang, they have continued to crack down on related industries. The nearby government soldiers have been practicing by the lake every now and then. They will inspect the flower boats when they see them, and occasionally conduct raids. Guests who are caught will be thrown into jail for a few days. After more and more severe crackdowns, Qu's flower boat business could no longer continue. Those old madams gritted their teeth with hatred and once resisted, asking the flower girl to bribe the chief of Zhechong Mansion with women's sex in an attempt to drag him down. Unexpectedly, the chief was a woman and kicked him to the iron plate.
Captain Zhe Chong was not used to it either.
The old bustard was beaten to pieces and paraded through the streets.
Since then, it has stopped.
Qujianghu Flower House began to transform.
He no longer engages in flesh-and-blood business, and only plays piano and sings for customers.
Several surprise inspections found no problems.
The original flower girls were more conservatively dressed than the others, and the songs they sang were not frivolous, and the guests on the flower boat were all well behaved. Lieutenant Zhe Chong thought these people were honest, but he didn't expect that they were actually selling dog meat with sheep's heads. Play with her!
Shen Tang asked some more questions about the supervisory censor Zheng Yu.
The strange thing is that Captain Zhechong didn't know about this.
Zheng Yu never came to Zhechong Mansion to move reinforcements.
Shen Tang tapped his finger on the table.
"There are some things that I need to ask the captain to cooperate with." She wanted to go on the flower boat to find out what was going on. She always felt that Zheng Yu's whereabouts were unknown, and maybe it had something to do with the flower boat. There were so many problems in Jinli County, and Zheng Yu was probably What was found was silenced.
Zhe rushed to the captain and saluted: "This is my official duties."
Shen Tang quietly sneaked back to his temporary room.
Someone is waiting inside the house.
Shen Tang sat down and drank tea: "Who did the tea guest meet?"
Chapter completed!
