Flower Fairy's Tribulation

Yang Daiding explained: The Wuchuan River, the largest river in Wuzhen State, flows through Wujia City and runs southward through the north and south of Wuzhen State. It connects many big cities and then flows into the vast sea. It has always been the largest water transportation artery in Wuzhen State.

Chuanyuan City, south of Wujia City, is located at the intersection of the Wuchuan River and its tributary Chiwu River. The abundant Chiwu River has formed a huge inland lake near its mouth. The shores of the lake are excellent natural boat harbors. The shipbuilding and transportation industries were developed. Because many shipping companies gathered there, it became known as Chuanyuan Lake, and the city was named after it.

Yang Daiding and their grain and oil goods were sometimes sold to various places in the south via the Wuchuan River waterway through the fleet.

There are no less than a hundred shipping companies operating on the Wuchuan River, of which at least 50 are concentrated in Chuanyuan City. Among them, two larger ones, Yifan Trading Company and Shunfeng Trading Company, have conflicts due to freight competition. Recently, they have The competition for supply of goods has become fierce and the price war is too fierce and protracted, which has affected the interests of all shipping companies, including the Holy Spirit Society's shipping fleet. They are not allowed to follow suit and lower prices. This has seriously affected the economic interests of the Holy Spirit Wuchuan Shipping Company. .

Many shipping companies tried to coordinate the two rivals and asked them to stop the price war, but they kept silent. After failure, they came to the Wujia City branch to ask them to stop the price war and safeguard the interests of all ship owners.

This matter has reached a point where it must be resolved, otherwise all shipowners will be competing for supply of goods at low prices due to price wars, and will receive pitiful freight rates, which will be unprofitable.

During the competition, the president, Guan Saiyue, had to entertain the big shots from Holy Spirit City. Shahelu, who was originally in charge of the water transportation business, disappeared again, and Chuanyuan City was in a state of excitement again. Guan Saiyue entrusted Shi Mosheng, who was in charge of finance, to handle the matter. The news had already spread to both sides of the river before the Shimosheng people set out.

Hua Yueying thought for a moment and said: "Shi Mosheng went to Chuanyuan City to resolve the dispute. This is an opportunity. Let's follow him to see if we can destroy him!"

Yang Daiding said: "Shi Mosheng is the magical instrument of the dragon chanting flute. It has seven flowers gathered at the top, so it is difficult to deal with it!"

Hua Yueying said disapprovingly: "It all depends on people! Dayang, you will lead the way tomorrow, and we will get out of the city first to see if we can ambush this old guy halfway. Will he go by water or by land?"

Yang Daiding said: "This is not clear, but the road from Wujia City to Chuanyuan City is by land and water. There is an official road on land. It takes more than an hour to ride a horse, and it takes half a day to go down the river by boat."

He thought for a moment and said, "I guess they will take the land route. After all, it's faster!"

Hua Yueying said: "Okay, let's set off early and find a good place to rob and kill him along the way!"

After breakfast at dawn on the 11th, everyone rode the fast horses from Xingu Grain and Oil Store and headed straight to Chuanyuan City. They walked along the mainland and observed the terrain. At more than 40 miles, the official road passed through a forest of five or six miles. There was tea on the roadside. The flag of the winery is for passers-by to rest and point. It is a good place for robbery. Once you get it, you can immediately escape into the dense forest on the hill and escape.

A place was chosen and Yang Daiding was asked to guard the horses in the deep forest. The six of them lay in ambush on the roadside, waiting for Shi Mosheng and his party to rob and kill them.

Everyone was anxious and impatient. They waited from morning to noon, and from noon to sunset. There was an endless stream of pedestrians and merchants passing by, but Shi Mosheng and others were nowhere to be seen.

It was estimated that Shi Mo Sheng and the others had gone by land and water or had not come out at all. Waiting here was not an option, so they continued to rush to Chuanyuan City. When it was dark, they rushed to the city and went to a sailing ship shipping company and a downwind shipping company on the pretext of renting a ship for transportation. After asking about the goods, they found out that Shi Mosheng had indeed traveled by land and water. He had arrived at Chuanyuan City in the afternoon, stayed at the Shipowners Club, and was negotiating a solution with two enemies.

He miscalculated the route and missed the opportunity to ambush Shi Mosheng, so he had to stay in an inn first and then look for a good opportunity.
