After the fairy disappeared

This is considered to be a hornet's nest, and no one on both sides will do anything. You will swear at each other, and you will fight vigorously with your fists.

As of the announcement, they have not yet decided the winner.

Tao Lin could only sigh: "Idiot!" Such a commotion would only make the people of the Ball Flower Gang more unstable.

No matter how the matter is resolved in the end, the reputation of Tao Lin and Xu Zeshou will inevitably decline significantly.

Anyone with a discerning eye will know what's going on when they look at the published list. The two gang leaders are too ugly to eat.

But now that they tear up the agreement and go back to their old business, the brothers may not be willing.

Again, it is so comfortable to sit and collect money.After tasting the sweetness, who is willing to give up such a big piece of cake and go back to work hard?

It's troublesome now, Tao Lin pressed his painful forehead.It's a trivial matter to suffer a dark loss and bleed a little, but in the future I'm afraid I will be manipulated to death.

He was already vigilant enough about the "conspiracy" in Yuheng City.

But be on guard against everything, it won't be possible for the surname He to keep a hand here to bully him.

"We've arrived at Blade Port, it's time to disembark!"

Without the need for the crew to yell a second time, the moldy guests who were already trapped in the ship rushed to land.

Dong Rui jumped onto the trestle, and took a deep breath regardless of the salty and fishy sea breeze: "My God, I finally landed! This leg is almost bent into a ring!"

Then the two monkeys who came out looked at him together: what's wrong with bow legs?
Dong Rui thumped his lower back: "It's not about you."

After living in the boat for two months, I couldn't straighten my waist and legs, and if I didn't pay attention when I got up, I would hit my head.

suffocated.

But when I feel bored, I have nowhere to go, because there is only so much space on the boat, surrounded by vast sea water.

He became darker and thinner.As a frequent visitor on the most wanted list in Lingxu City, he has flown through the sky and escaped from the earth, except that he has never been in the ocean before. The boat started to bump from Baisha Bay to the sea, and his intestines almost vomited out of the bump.

After three or four days of sleeping and throwing up, Dong Rui felt that he had finally adapted to life on the boat, but he didn't know that the hurricane was coming in a blink of an eye.

If it wasn't for the cleverness of the ship's boss, who seized the opportunity to hide on the island to avoid the wind, the people and monsters on this ship would be gone.

The sea was so windy and turbulent that even Zhu Auntie, a prehistoric monster, was unable to fight against it.

Fortunately, the ship finally arrived at its destination, Blade Port, and Dong Rui's heart fell back into his stomach.

In this life, never sail away again!
Two people appeared on the deck of the ship, smiling and waving to He Lingchuan and the others: "Brother He, we will meet later!"

This is a guest who boarded the ship en route to Brochure.One of them was obsessed with sea fishing, but the fish he caught were extremely poisonous, and the fish soup he made almost turned into Mengpo soup.

In the critical moment, it was Yao Yuan Lingguang who took the shot and saved the lives of the two.

After this incident, the two and He Lingchuan became good friends, or drinking friends.

After all, sailing at sea is boring, it is better to be drunk and dream.Drink and brag and time will pass.

Aunt Zhu occasionally joins the drinking party, but usually she doesn't say a word, just sips silently.

He Lingchuan's boldness and eloquence made the two of them quite heartbroken.

However, separation and reunion in a sea of ​​people are just like the separation of two people, and they will eventually part ways even if they accompany you thousands of miles away.He Lingchuan and others disembarked at Blade Port, and the two of them had to continue their sea journey.

He Lingchuan smiled and said, "Leave my business to you two!"

"Brother He's words must be brought!"

The parties bid farewell.

Blade's Edge Harbor is very special. The bay is shaped like a long knife, piercing hard into the sea.Everyone saw at a glance that there were small boats in the bay and large ships outside the bay. The berths were basically full and there were many masts.

There are people coming and going on the pier, and it is very lively.

Everyone passed by the fishing port area, and several fishing boats were unloading.

The dark-skinned coolies were bent over by the heavy cargo, and there were skuas poking around in every corner, trying to steal some small fish from the baskets to eat, and the broken shells thrown by the fishermen could not frighten them away.

The sea is sparkling, ships in the harbor are chasing waves, and there are gulls and herons gliding on the trestle bridge. This picture looks beautiful from a distance, but it cannot be approached.

Once you get closer, the horrible stench hits your face, leaving you with nowhere to hide.

Seafood Seafood, the seafood that comes ashore from here has been accumulated over the years, and even the sea breeze can't blow away the fishy smell.

When Dong Rui came here, he just frowned slightly.He had smelled all kinds of strange smells in the laboratory, and this was not the scariest.

Not to mention Aunt Zhu, she even thought it tasted good.

He Lingchuan often throws incense dumplings and is no stranger to this stench.

Only Ding Zuodong and his wife, Qiu Hu and a group of people from Rongshan almost lost their breath, and immediately covered their mouths and noses, showing pain on their faces.

A group of people gathered their strength and fled the fishing pier like flying.

Blade's Edge Harbor is a busy big port with mixed people of all colors.As soon as he set foot on land, a kid bumped into Ding Zuodong's arms.When Qiu Hu pulled him away, he almost touched Ding Zuodong's broken silver bag.

There were several people around, looking at him eagerly.

Qiu Hu didn't want to cause trouble, so he threw the kid aside. When those guys saw that they knew each other, they walked back to the crowd and stopped showing their heads.

"Let's find an inn, I want to sleep on a bed that won't shake." Dong Rui sniffed his clothes, it smelled of everything.

Immediately, everyone found an inn with the brightest facade and the brightest signboard at the back of the port, and booked a courtyard.

There are a lot of business groups coming in and out of Blade's Edge Port, and they often rent the courtyard of the inn. The single-door detached courtyard has a large space, can sleep 30 people, and has a special warehouse, which belongs to the mixed living of people and goods.

Everyone lived in the cramped cabin for two months, and He Lingchuan thoughtfully ordered them to disband, those who wanted to eat went to eat, those who wanted to sleep went to sleep, those who wanted to play went to play, and had a good rest.

He took a shower by himself, changed into clean clothes, and dragged Qiu Hu to the port for a stroll.

This bay is larger than the Baisha Bay they started from, and the climate is warmer, but the sanitation is far inferior, and there is salty moisture floating everywhere.He Lingchuan and the two avoided the restaurants with shiny signs on the main street, and walked all the way back.

The further back, the smaller and older the house.So many people can only put the tables and chairs at the door.

When He Lingchuan saw them, he remembered his residence in Panlong City, and they crowded together like this.

Following the scent of oil from the old fire, they found a small restaurant in the old street.The wooden sign here is half rotten, and the words on it are blurred. He Lingchuan can barely make out the words "Old Yaoxian... file".

There are only four small tables in the store, all of them are full.The rest of the guests sat on the threshold, or simply ate from bowls.

There is no seat left, but Qiu Hu has a solution.

He held an ingot of broken silver in his hand, and shook it around: "Which table is finished, can I make a seat?"

The two diners immediately stood up to pick up the money, chewing on the rice and holding thick bowls in their hands: "Sit down!"

He Lingchuan looked at the surrounding customers, most of them were concentrating on cooking fried rice, so he said to the shop owner, "Two bowls of this."

The proprietress, who was dark and fat, smiled: "The cold dishes here are also delicious, why don't we?"

"Just come."

The proprietress turned around and brought a few small dishes, besides a plate of pickled melon, black vinegar stinging head and raw marinated shrimp.

The stings were cleaned very well without any sand, and they were crunchy and crisp when chewed; the marinated drum shrimp was not made with good wine, but luckily the shrimp were fresh and sweet enough, and He Lingchuan could easily finish off two plates.

Soon, two big bowls of fried rice were served.

This is really served in a sea bowl, enough for He Lingchuan to bury his face in it.

Seeing Qiu Hu sitting still, he pointed into Qiu Hu's bowl: "Eat quickly."

Only then did Qiu Hu grab his chopsticks, whirling away.

This taste, no wonder everyone ordered fried rice.Stir-fried, dry, fragrant and salty, and mustard greens provide a little bit of bitterness to finish. It is very comfortable to eat on a hot day.

He Lingchuan picked up a small piece of diced meat: "What is this?" It should be seafood, which is also the source of the umami of the whole bowl of rice.

"Salted fish."

He Lingchuan was stunned.It turns out that the faded signboard at the entrance of this small shop is called "Salted Fish Stall". The store cuts the marinated salted fish into cubes and fry until fragrant, and then stir-fries them with rice.

This salted fish smells bad when marinated, but it tastes delicious.

But there are people making salted fish rice everywhere in Blade's Edge Port, and Lao Yao's family can be turned into a neighborhood canteen, which is his own ability.

He Lingchuan ordered another dry fried peeled fish, and another fried crab with ginger and spring onion.

The store is very busy, but the proprietress likes to chat with people.He Lingchuan then asked her: "Eldest sister, we are newcomers, is this Blade's Edge Harbor under the jurisdiction of the Kingdom of Qing?"

"Of course, Qingguo has set up a special ship department here to manage ships, people and affairs. You have to pay money to go in and out of ships. If you commit crimes, they will arrest you and go to jail."

The guest on the side added: "We also charge money when goods enter the country, it depends on what kind of goods it is!"

"I seem to have heard that this port originally belonged to the people of Bailie?"

"Then you heard it was quite a long time ago." The proprietress took away the dishes from the next table, "It was like this decades ago, and then the people of Bailie handed over the port to the Qing Kingdom."

"How can a golden rooster lay eggs without giving it to others?"

Blade's Edge Port is the largest deep-water port within [-] miles to the east of Mou Country. There are countless cargo ships coming in and out every day, and they are soft on the tariffs alone. The most important thing is that the money is very stable.

And according to the expired agreement in He Lingchuan's hand, Qingguo leased Blade Edge Port from the Bailie people, and only paid 3000 taels of rent per year.

3000 taels, which is just a fraction of Blade Port’s income, right?

How could the Bailie people be willing to give up such a good property?

"Then who is willing to give up?" the landlady said quickly, "It seems that the Bailie people defeated the prince of Qing Dynasty and used this port to make amends."

A diner nearby said: "I heard that the Qing Kingdom directly sent troops to give this place to—" stretched out his hand and drew a circle, which means to occupy it by force.

Anyway, Blade Port is now Qingguo’s territory.

The landlady looked at He Lingchuan and the two with curiosity in her eyes: "Where are you two from?"

"West."

"Mou Guo? No, your clothes don't belong to Mou Guo." The proprietress rubbed her chin, "Beja?"

"Further to the west." He Lingchuan said with a smile, "I heard that commerce and trade are free here, and we want to find opportunities to do business nearby. I don't know how the Bailie people's territory is?"

The diners nearby said, "It's better to go to Qingguo."
