I've been reborn, who still wants to be a cowardly little white flower?

Xie Yunxiao was wearing a coarse cloth suit with his sleeves rolled up to his wrists. He had practiced martial arts for many years and had calluses on his hands, so he deliberately made himself look a little dirty, and he really looked like one.

Especially that muscular body, he really looks like the man carrying bags at the dock, except that Xie Yunxiao is a little paler.

The young yamen runner was called Liuzi. He also changed into the clothes he used to wear when running around the streets, and followed Xie Yunxiao with a flattering smile.

When we walked to the dock, there was a tea stall right opposite the dock, where people working nearby ate and drank tea.

As soon as Liuzi sat down, he waved to the tea stall owner generously, "Give me a pot of tea and four steamed buns. Boss, bring all your precious delicacies to me."

The tea stall owner was still wondering who this person was who was so arrogant. He looked up from the stall and saw Liuzi grinning at him.

The boss also laughed and threw the towel in his hand over his shoulder, "Hey, who did I think I was? It turned out to be you, a bastard. What's wrong? Did you get rich?"

Liuzi stood up and pointed at Xie Yunxiao who was sitting on a small stool, "What are you talking about? This is my eldest brother. He is very capable. If you follow him, it will be easy to make a fortune.

Hey, hurry up, don't let my brother starve."

The tea stall owner didn't take it seriously and agreed with a smile. Soon, a pot of hot tea was brought over, along with two large tea bowls.

Liu Zi, a lackey, poured tea for Xie Yunxiao. His attentiveness did not seem fake at all. "Brother, have some tea."

The boss brought steamed buns, a dish of braised beef in soy sauce, and a dish of pickled radish.

Liu Zi looked at it and his smile fell, "Boss, what are you serving me? Are you looking down on my eldest brother?"

The boss held the towel in his hand and shouted at Liuzi, "You bastard, stop acting like a superior to me. My pickles are famous far and wide.

When you come to eat, you can only eat the cheapest dried radish. These radish strips are pickled with salt, sugar and vinegar.

If you come here by yourself, I won't give you that to eat."

Xie Yunxiao smiled kindly and thanked the tea stall owner, "Thank you, boss. I heard from my brothers here that your pickled vegetable strips are good stuff."

The tea stall owner was quite proud and said, "This big brother's words are very pleasing to the ear, you little bastard should learn from him.

"Brother, where are you working?"

Xie Yunxiao had already inquired about it and had arranged everything. He said, "I'm a porter at Mr. He's grain store in the east of the city. It's not a high job, just carrying goods and working hard to earn a few bucks."

The tea stall owner sat down in a familiar manner and said, "Oh, this is Mr. He's family. I heard that they pay their employees very well. You are great, brother. You have a bright future.

If you work hard and save up for a few years, you can marry a wife and live a peaceful life."

Xie Yunxiao laughed innocently, lowered his head and touched his neck as if he was a little shy, "Boss, that's right, that's right."

"Don't be shy, young man. We men make money for this. What are you doing here?"

Xie Yunxiao pointed at the dock and said, "The master asked me to come here and keep an eye on it. His ship will arrive in the next two days.

The last time, the goods were knocked and bumped, and a set of high-quality rosewood tables and chairs were broken.

I was worried, so I came to keep an eye on it and take a look at where my little brother used to work."

The tea stall owner nodded in understanding, "Yes, we need to keep an eye on it. The people who carry the goods here are tired after a day, and there are always some people who are careful about their movements. Mr. He is very careful.

This bastard, he fishes for three days and rests for two days, he stays here for a few days and then runs away, this time he ran away for several days, I don’t know where he went.”

Liuzi bit a steamed bun in one hand and held the braised beef in the other, mumbling, "Stop talking about me in front of my brother. Go away and take care of your stall."

The tea stall owner chuckled and returned to his stall.

When he was talking just now, many people who were resting nearby and the garrison soldiers on guard heard it all, but no one paid much attention.

Xie Yunxiao now had a legitimate reason to sit here and look at the dock.

He was also hungry and didn't care at all. He grabbed a steamed bun, split it in the middle, put some beef and pickled vegetables in it, took a bite, and nodded involuntarily.

Looking at the steamed bun in his hand, he thought of Jiang Yuan. He learned how to eat like this from Jiang Yuan.

Thinking of her, I couldn't help but smile.

Seeing him eat like this, Liuzi also learned to pick up the food, and while eating, he raised his chin towards the dock and said, "Brother, I basically know all the people who carry goods here.

If you think there is a problem, tell me directly. If you don’t know, I will go and find out right away.”

Watching the guys carrying goods going in and out of a big ship, Xie Yunxiao was thoughtful and observing those people.

After a while, he shook his head. It shouldn't be these people. These people have dark skin, tanned by the sun all year round. Their muscles are the result of physical training. They wear coarse clothes and their shoes have been patched over and over again.

One shoulder is high, while the other is low. There is a deep red mark on the shoulder, which is caused by carrying goods for many years.

These people must have been carrying goods at the dock for a long time, and the pirate incident happened not long ago. If they had been at the dock a long time ago and had been exposed to these things, the pirate incident should have happened a long time ago.

At one point, those porters all lowered their heads and worked hard. It was estimated that even they themselves did not know what was in the large sacks they were carrying. When they passed by the dock registration office, no one even glanced over.

"Are there any of them who can read?"

Liuzi was stunned and shook his head, "Brother, who would want to do hard labor if they can read? If you can write a few words, you can work as a waiter in a shop, which is easier than working here.

If you know a few more words or can write, you don't have to work as a waiter and there are more comfortable jobs waiting for you.

These people, the older ones, have been carrying goods all their lives and it is impossible for them to be literate.

Some of the young people have fathers who carry the goods here and ask their sons to do it when they can’t carry it anymore. Some are orphans like me who have to look for food everywhere and can even get a meal and a steamed bun if they come here.

Where is the money and time to learn to read? "

Liuzi's words made sense, and Xie Yunxiao reduced his suspicion of the porters even more.

The most suspicious people are actually the people in the garrison or the government office.

He asked for the personnel list of the yamen and the time they were supposed to work at the dock. There were many soldiers stationed there, and a new batch had just been replaced not long ago, so they were the most suspicious.

We sat there until the afternoon, and all the cargo on the ship was loaded. After we ascended the throne, the ship left. Half an hour later, a medium-sized merchant ship slowly came and stopped at the dock.

Four or five people came down from the boat, holding a list in their hands, and handed it respectfully to the registration place.

There were two people sitting at the registration desk. After looking at the list separately, they copied it and then handed the copied list to a team of soldiers.

A dozen soldiers took the list and boarded the ship.

Liuzi explained, “This ship will not be unloaded here, we need to board the ship to inspect the cargo and search the entire ship.

On a larger ship, more than 20 people are needed to inspect it. On a smaller ship, only a dozen people are needed, and there are even smaller boats.

However, most smaller ships stop to unload cargo, and most of the ships that pass by for registration are large ships, and there are not many medium-sized ships like this.”

Xie Yunxiao stared at the dozen or so soldiers boarding the ship and nodded slowly.

"Garrison, are you familiar with it?"
