In the east side hall of the Sea God Temple, the delicacies enjoyed by the master and disciple, I cried to the death of Prince Qian next door.

"Master, try this cucumber croaker." Jin Xuezeng presented a plate of steamed yellow croaker to Zhao Hao like a treasure.

"In our Chongming, there would be no seat without yellow croaker."

"Yes, Master, this big yellow croaker is not only delicious, but also can strengthen the spleen and stomach, nourish qi and fill essence." Yu Shensi also smiled from the side and said, "Master is growing, so you have to eat more."

Mr. Zhao picked up a piece of white and tender fish and put it into his mouth. It turned out that the meat was tender and the taste was sweet.

He nodded in praise and asked slowly: "What's the situation in this Sand Boat Gang now?"

"When I go back to Master, the child has no mother, so I have a long story. Chongming Island is at the estuary of the Yangtze River. Some people have been relying on sailing for their business in the early years." Jin Xuezeng, obviously, was not a waste of time, so he told the story.

"But it was the time when the eunuch Sanbao went to the West during the Yongle period. After the fleet returned, it was because it carried too much cargo and was too deep to enter Liujiagang, so it had to dock on this Chongming Island first." Jin Xuezeng said again: "Then hire a local ship to transport the goods to Nanjing."

Yu Shensi took down the fish bones in front of Zhao Hao, and presented him with a plate of garlic lobsters, laughed in a low voice: "This lobster nourishes yin and stomach, nourishes kidneys and strengthens yang, and tastes great..."

Mr. Zhao showed a happy smile like an old father, and while enjoying the food, he listened to Jin Xuezeng's continued introduction:

"Now the sand boats on Chongming Island have become a climate. At most, there were tens of thousands of sand boats in Chongming, and eighty or ninety thousand sailors."

Zhao Hao tsked his mouth and said, not knowing whether it was because the lobster was so delicious or the grand scene of Chongming Island in the past.

"But later, when the voyage to the West stopped, the shipping business plummeted. The ships went bankrupt one after another, and the sailors lost their livelihood. At this time, Shen Yilu, the ancestor of the Shen family, formed a sand boat gang, united all ships, unified the price, and operated them in a unified manner."

"Their own people have lost vicious competition and have improved their ability to pay for the main price of goods. The sailors have regained their food and regarded the Shen family as a savior, and the Sand Boat Gang became bigger and bigger until the Chongming Shipping was unified. The position of the gang leader was also passed down in the Shen family for seven generations."

Zhao Hao asked lightly: "So, has this Shachuan Gang always been surnamed Shen?"

"It turned out to be true, but by last year, things changed." Yu Shensi said in a deep voice: "Shen Shuo, the new leader of the Sha Chuan Gang, suddenly died of illness at a young age and did not leave any descendants. His only younger brother is only eight years old, how can he afford such a large family business?"

"Yes." Jin Xuezeng couldn't help but smile: "Don't look like a gang that runs around the world, it's the same as the inheritance of the throne in ancient times."

Yu Shensi Bai glanced at Jin Xuezeng and thought he interrupted him. Then he continued: "So the two elders of the Shachuan Gang, the thirteen hall masters, elected the position of temporary leader Guo Donglin."

After Zhao Hao had dealt with the lobster meat, he felt that he had eaten it well, so he took the hot towel offered by Yu Shensi, wiped his hands and asked lightly: "Where did this Guo's surname come from?"

"Then Guo Donglin was originally a Songjiang old boy. He had not won a scholar for more than ten years. He couldn't stand the blow and jumped into the river. He happened to be rescued by the old leader of the Shachuan Gang, that is, Mrs. Shen's father-in-law."

"He recognized the old gang leader as his foster father. He made a living in the Shachuan Gang because he had studied for a few years and had some brains. He was quite relied on by the old gang leader, and later he became a military advisor."

"Before his death, the old gang leader praised him as the deputy gang leader of the Shachuan Gang, and asked him to assist Chen Shuo to make the Shachuan Gang bigger and stronger, and create more glory." Yu Shensi sighed when he said this. His delicate and sensitive heart was always prone to crying for others' sadness.

"Who knew that Chen Shuo was dead in two years. His younger brother Chen Teng was too young, and the old people in the Shachuan Gang were worried that it would be inappropriate for others to join him. It was still him, a rootless and unfounded foreign household, who would be more at ease to see the position of the leader of the Shen family."

"It is said that at the ceremony of receiving positions, he was forced to make a poisonous oath, saying that when Chen Teng grows up and can take important tasks, he will return the position of leader to the Shen family and will never be enamored." Yu Shensi sneered again:

"But looking at his mighty and prosperous appearance over the past year, I'm afraid that Liu Bei will borrow Jingzhou again."

"Isn't that nonsense?" Jin Xuezeng also sneered: "Otherwise, how did the Desert Incident come about? Looking through the twenty-one history, how many Zhou Gongs can there be?"

"Why are you talking about the Shachuan Gang? Why are you going so far?" Zhao Hao glared at the two disciples who were getting more and more desperate.

However, he finally had a rough understanding of the current situation of the Shachuan Gang.

He asked leisurely again, "Where is that Mrs. Chen? It doesn't look very simple."

"That's a flower in our Chongming County!" When talking about Chen Chen's family, Jin Xuezeng immediately became energetic. "No big girl and little wife in the county can catch up with her."

"Hate, Master is still young, why are you talking about this?" Yu Shensi took a photo of his junior brother, and then reported it seriously:

"The disciple has collected all her information, please check it out."

As he said that, he took out the booklet from his sleeve and presented it with both hands.

Zhao Hao took it and saw that the cover was written with "Records of the Sand Boat Gang" and opened it and collected the information from more than a dozen of the leaders of the gang, Guo Donglin, clearly.

He was about to praise the fifth disciple for saying "I'm very careful" but when he turned to Mrs. Chen's page, he was speechless and choked.

I saw that Yu Shensi actually collected all kinds of information about Mrs. Chen's name, her mother's home, height, weight, preferences, personality, favorite colors, foods, people she cares about....

On the next page, I drew a colorful picture of Mrs. Chen's whole body. I saw her white dress and plain skirt, with a slightly frown of eyebrows, which was pity and a hint of perseverance. It was really vivid, and it was obviously put in a lot of effort.

The small characters on the upper right line read "Chen Huaixiu's Little Picture", and a small corner stamp is also used at the lower right.

Mr. Zhao took a closer look and saw that the chapter was written with the word "Jianhua".

"You are sick and need to be cured." Mr. Zhao glanced at the fifth disciple and sighed with pain. How empty and boring this is, you can't see more beauties...

Yu Shensi lowered his head in shame. Fortunately, he didn't tell his master that he had also compiled a collection of celebrities for the eldest girl and daughter-in-law of Chongming.

In any case, Zhao Hao finally confirmed that Chen Huaixiu, the Shen Chen family, was very prestigious in the Sha Chuan Gang, as he expected.

She is not only the daughter-in-law of the Shen family, but also the widow of the leader of the gang, but also the guardian of Chen Teng, the only descendant of the Shen family.

Moreover, she is kind, generous, fair and polite. In the hearts of the gang members, especially the young gang members, she is a person like Mazu's reincarnation.

Mr. Zhao couldn't help but like him, this wave of operation will definitely not be able to lose money...
