There is a folk proverb in Hankou Town that Dongting is full of emblems everywhere in the sky. +. This emblem everywhere naturally means that Hui merchants are overwhelming in Hankou Town and occupy most of the country by relying on their wealth. The so-called Dongting Dongting refers to the Dongting merchant gang. The Dongting merchant gang is divided into two groups. Dongshan and Xishan. The people of Dongshan mainly run along the canal, while the people of Xishan mainly walk through carriages and boats, stepping across Jingchu and Dongting Lake, and do business in Huguang. However, whether it is Dongshan or Xishan, they cannot do without the waterway of Hankou Town.

Moreover, because the Dongting Gang is a local business gang, the people are strong, in addition to competing for wealth and background, they can also compete for strength and knife. Therefore, other business gangs in Hankou Town have to give them two points, except for Hui merchants who are foreigners who smell the business opportunities in Hankou Town earlier than them. Hui merchants set up a whole Xin'an Street and Xin'an Wharf, and they almost decided to not let outsiders take a step. Therefore, the three words "fighting for a wharf" have been deeply rooted in the hearts of every leader of the Dongting Merchant Gang over the past few decades.

This time, it was because someone secretly gave them some advice. Taking advantage of Wang Daokun's new job, the Hui Gang was excited. At this time when the enemy was at its strongest momentum, he was unprepared for attacking the enemy. So, Tan Mingfang, who was publicly recommended as the current leader, invited several merchants from Baoqing Mansion, who were known as the most domineering, secretly summoned a large number of people and suddenly made a bet on the dock against the Hui Gang. The card was only revealed on the day of the battle. Hundreds of men were all tough people holding Park Swords. As expected, the Hui people should have resisted symbolically, and then lost a lot of money and gave up their territory, but who knew that they would eventually smash it!

Because the two sides were fighting fiercely, they were suddenly disturbed by a group of officers. They also bluffed and said that officers and soldiers arrived. Therefore, a good bet turned into a derelict agreement. Several people died on their side! How could those well-known merchants in the merchant gang, including those Baoqing Mansion merchants, feel happy?

At this moment, everyone gathered together and were urgently discussing the sudden sue of the people from the Huigang. As they were talking, He Yun, a timber merchant from Baoqing Mansion, slapped the handrail hard and said, "These people from Huizhou know to use the power of the government when they encounter something. Are we still afraid that they will not succeed? If they sue the officials, we will then ask for five or ten more lawsuits. Will they even lose the lawsuit?"

"Boss He, you stay in Hankou Town every year for a limited time. If the business gang is not at ease, we will lose. What business do those merchants in Zihui do? Salt sellers are sent from Yangzhou to our Hankou Town, and the profit is three or four times the profit. Of course, they have the money to take it out to send it. The officials in the government are honest, so they will send it to the first three shifts and six rooms. If the officials are not honest, they will wear a pair of pants with them. Not to mention. Who is the current governor of Huguang? Wang Daokun! If we won the battle for the wharf before, it would be fine, but we would not lose or win!"

"Then admit defeat? They died, and we also died. The pension money was spent a lot. As a result, the dock did not expand, but it still had to lose the lawsuit?" He Yun raised his voice suddenly and looked at Tan Mingfang angrily and anxiously and said, "Big leader, if that is the case, our Baoqing man's blood will be in vain this time!"

Tan Mingfang regretted it so much that he shouldn't have listened to the instigation of others, and then rushed to the ground to the crowd of merchants around him. In an instant, Tan Mingfang suddenly changed his expression and then smiled at everyone, "Please be careful, please don't be impatient, I'll leave for a while, and come back soon."

The Dongting Merchant Group has always been domineering. The big leader selected is not because everyone is convinced, but because it is very troublesome to coordinate the top and bottom. Therefore, this big leader is specialized in various trivial matters. It is not very authoritarian, but is very busy. At this time, when Tan Mingfang left his seat, most people just complained, didn't care much, only He Yun turned his eyes and wanted to go to the official room and went out. He was only a little later than Tan Mingfang, and he could still see the other party's back. When he was hanging from behind a person's butt, he found that he was smiling and greeting a young boy, so he simply showed up.

"When the big leader is so angry, do you still have time to meet outsiders?"

Turning his head and seeing that He Yun was chasing him, Tan Mingfang immediately felt a little unnatural: "Brother He, it's just that relatives at home have someone send me a message..."

"What are you sending? They are obviously from the southeast. Can you get along with you? This guy, don't say secret words in front of the wise man. Since you are here, please understand what you want to come."

"In Songming Mountain in Xiashe County, Wang Fulin." Wang Fulin reported to his house and saw He Yun raise his eyebrows. Tan Mingfang quickly blocked him. He said straight to the point: "I'm here today, I'm a peacemaker."

Hearing such a purpose, He Yun couldn't help but pull away Tan Mingfang who was blocking him. Although he was the current leader of the Dongting Merchant Gang, if you really want to show prestige, he was not as good as the top figure who could arouse endless responses by raising his arms among the merchants of Baoqing Mansion. He looked at Wang Fulin attentively, and then sneered: "Marriage Old? Your Hui Gang has already exposed the case to the Hanyang County Government. What did you say to do with the Merchant Gang at this time? Isn't it a joke?"

"That's right, the Hui Gang people did go to complain, but they were forced. I don't know if they have heard of it. The famous Huguang Inspector Censor Lei Shiyu has arrived at the Hanyang County Government Office at this moment."

"Lei Qingtian?" This time, He Yun couldn't help but exclaim. Lei Jigu did punish countless corrupt officials during the drought in Huguang last year, but this fight was inseparable from the Dongting Merchants. If this selfless Lei Qingtian got involved, it would be really going to make a big deal!

Tan Mingfang looked even more like a mortal face. After swallowing hard, he asked in a low voice: "What does Wang Xiaoguanren mean is that Lei Shiyu has received the news?"

"Or it is, Lei Shiyu was originally in Xiangyang, and he rushed back after hearing the news." Wang Fulin looked at each other in front of him, and he sincerely fooled, "Please think about it, the fighting between the two sides caused such a big casualties, but it was a very disgraceful thing after all. It was too late to comfort the casualties. Who would want to go to the government? Lei Shiyu rushed back so quickly, which shows that when the two sides made a bet, he got the news. Otherwise, how could he be able to come back so by chance? Let me say a guess, will the Hui Gang and Dongting Merchants fight to death on both sides of the life and death? Will it be cheaper for others?"

"Who is it cheap?" He Yun asked subconsciously. Seeing Wang Fulin smiled and said nothing, he couldn't help but brows up, "What does it mean if you say halfway through your words?"

"The two good teachers learned that a family member of Mr. Bao Er of Huigang, happened to see someone coming out of Lei Shiyu, the Procuratorate, yesterday. And that person was the famous Danyang Shao Hero."

Shao Fang is very famous in the southeast area, but in Huguang, his name is not as well-known as Heyun. He is simply confused, but Tan Mingfang, who is a big leader, suddenly took a breath and exclaimed in surprise: "Is it the hero Shao of Danyang who let the chief minister regain the prime minister?"

"That's why Master Bao Er was shocked. In order not to let others find out about this case, he had to go to the county government to file a complaint. Sure enough, as soon as the complaint was sent to the present day, Lei Shiyu came."

"It turned out to be Shao Fang..." Tan Mingfang was full of entanglement and didn't see He Yun looking at him for explanation. When He Yun impatiently pulled him, he realized something when he saw the other party's inquiry expression. He quickly explained what Shao Fang was like in a whisper. Now, even He Yun's face turned dark.

Originally, it was just a matter of a fight between merchants and gangs, but it might have been involved in the court's party struggle. Isn't this a turmoil? Moreover, if this fight was to give others a handle, wouldn't those people die in vain?

As an alien monk, Wang Fulin only planned to be a gentleman, so he said half of his words and only let others think about everything himself. At this moment, he stood there patiently until Tan Mingfang finally spoke after pondering for a long time.

"Where is the hero Shao of Danyang mentioned by the little official?"

"Just watch the fun outside the Hanyang County Government. If you don't believe it, if you have seen that hero Shao, you can go to the Hanyang County Government with me to recognize him." Wang Fulin and others were just this issue, so he gave such a suggestion readily. He did not think that Shao Fang would lie to the man sent by Master Bao Er, and he had already met with others and experienced the other party's keenness.

In other words, Shao Fang, who had already boarded the big ship of Gaogong, could be said to be fearless and was not worried about the various problems caused by the exposure of his identity.

Tan Mingfang and He Yun whispered a few words, and Tan Ming said immediately: "As the little official said, it is really not good for both of us to make a big deal, and you shouldn't have lie to us. Since you are here to be a peace deal today, what are some great suggestions?"

"Of course there is." Wang Fulin breathed a sigh of relief, "I think Danyang Shao Xia would show his identity to Mr. Bao Er, and it is also accurate that the Hui Gang and the Dongting Merchants fought in Hankou Town for a long time. It is impossible for them to work together to fight the outside world because of a little external force. The battle for the wharf is indeed very difficult. Even if it was me, it would not be possible to persuade the Bao family, Huang family, and Xu family to give up the Xin'an wharf. After all, this was built by the ancestors with great effort, but I can compensate in other ways."

He stepped closer and whispered to Tan Mingfang and He Yun. Seeing that the two of them were really moved, he spoke, "No matter how, now the two of you are gathering people to go to the Hanyang County Government to respond together? First, you may also see the Shao Hero who is watching the fun, and second, you can cut the mess quickly and solve the matter quickly so that there will be more dreams. It is important to know that you are staring at by the master Qingtian like Lei Shiyu at all times, but it is like a thorn in his back, which is definitely not good."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw He Yun without thinking and said firmly: "Okay, go now!" (To be continued...)
