Xiaohe Village, cemetery scene.

The disciples of the Fishing Gang formed a formation to surround Nan Batian, Qin Ying and Tang Ziyue to provide protection.

The Mulan people formed a circle and attacked Nan Batian and the others with foul language, making the scene very funny at one point.

The Mulan people knew that the people from the Fishing Gang were not easy to deal with, so they did not dare to take action, for fear that the other party would become desperate.

Nan Batian and his companions were also afraid to take action against the Mulan people, for they were also afraid that this would anger the Mulan people and lead to disputes, which would be bad.

Both sides restrained each other. Mu Lanren focused on talking instead of taking action, while Nan Batian focused on not listening and just trying to please the lord.

Let the younger brothers of the fishing gang surround him so that these Mulan people cannot speak foul language to him face to face.

Just when this funny scene was at its most intense, Yelu arrived on horseback.

He glanced around and saw everything that was already there: the surrounded Nan Batian, coffins that had been pried open all over the floor, and the entire place was in a mess.

Qimuge saw the chaotic scene and immediately summoned his inner strength to shout, "Stop, Lord Yelu is here!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone at the scene really stopped. When the Mulan people saw Yelu coming, they rushed over directly under the leadership of old Alutai and said, "Master Yelu, you are here. You must help us Mulan people. These Han people, they, they are shitting on our heads!"

"Look, sir. They dug up all our graves. They don't take us Mulan people seriously at all. They, they want us Mulan people to die!"

"Sir, you are the representative of our Mulan people. You can't not help us this time. Last time, you said that Chen Jiusi didn't have enough evidence and didn't make the decision for us. We accepted it, but this time, Sir Yelu, look, these coffins all over the floor, can't they be used as evidence?"

"Master Yelu, please make a decision for us. If you don't make a decision for us, the Han people will bully us to death in the future, Master... wuwu..."

When old Aluta said this, he was so sad that he cried out loud. Yelu also frowned when he heard it.

As a Darughaci, although he did not like the local herders, he could not ignore them, because protecting them was one of the Darughaci's jobs.

Thinking of this, Yelu said: "Uncle Alutai, and everyone else, don't worry, we Mulan people are the descendants of Changshengtian, we will not be bullied, I will give you justice."

"Nan Batian!"

Yelu shouted angrily, and the disciples of the Fisherman's Gang immediately stepped aside, leaving a way for Nan Batian.

Tang Ziyue and Qin Ying came over with the gang leader. When they got to the front, the three of them bowed and said, "Greetings, Lord Yelu."

Yelu frowned and said, "Can you explain it?"

Nan Batian smiled bitterly and said, "My lord, it's like this. No weapons were found in Chen Jiusi's coffin today, and I was confused and took away all the guards in East City, which led to Sun Tiechui and his gang escaping from East City. I had no choice, so after our analysis, we felt that if the weapons wanted to be transported out of the city, the best way was to use the thirty-six coffins of the Mulan nobles..."

"We were looking for weapons, so we had no choice but to dig up the coffin of the Mulan noble!"

"Fuck you!"

After hearing what Nan Batian said, the Mulan nobles were completely furious. How shameless are these people? You come to dig up the graves of us Mulan people, but instead falsely accuse us of helping the Zoroastrians transport military equipment.

Do you have any shame? We are mortal enemies of Zoroastrianism. They are the ones who want to overthrow us. Can we help the enemy transport weapons to attack ourselves?
It's simply unreasonable.

I think they are just crazy because of poverty. They think we, the Mulan nobles, are rich, so they come to pry open our coffins and want to steal some gold and silver. These gangs are a bunch of despicable people.

After hearing Nan Batian's words, the group of Mulan people went crazy and insulted Nan Batian, calling him a scoundrel, a tomb robber, and that tomb robbers would kill their entire family, and that tomb robbers would not give birth to Xiao Jiji...

All the curses were spoken out, it was so ugly.

Nan Batian was quite thick-skinned. Apart from glaring at the one who said that Xiao Jiji couldn't grow up, he didn't have any other reaction.

Yelu also listened to the insults from the crowd. When they finished their insults and the tempo began to slow down, Yelu raised his hand and said, "Everyone, please be patient and let me finish my question!"

After hearing this, the people of Mulan fell silent and asked Yelu to continue asking. After so much trouble, they gradually recognized the difference between the big king and the small king. Yelu had the army, so he was the king.

Therefore, his attitude was quite positive and he obeyed Yelu's command.

Yelu looked at Nan Batian and said, "You said that the Zoroastrians used the coffins of my Mulan people to transport the weapons out of the city?"

Nan Batian said: "Yes, that's right."

Yelu frowned slightly and said, "This is just your one-sided statement. Do you have any evidence? If not, I cannot believe you."

"Sir, look, this is something I just discovered by accident."

As Nan Batian spoke, he handed Yelu an arrow that he had prepared long ago.

Yelu took the arrow and looked at it and said, "The arrowhead of a bow and arrow, how can it be used as evidence?"

"Sir, this is the weapon transported by the Zoroastrians. This one should have been left at the scene. I found it in Tara's coffin."

After hearing this, Yelu frowned slightly.

Old Aluta, who was standing by, was also stunned when he saw it. How could there be such a thing in the coffin? However, even if they really were the ones who transported the weapons out of the city, they could not admit it at this time.

Why are they targeting Nan Batian?

Is it to avenge Tara's family?
No, no, except for an old lady, Tara's family has been wiped out. There is no value in their family anymore. These Mulan people will not give too much for a worthless person.

For example, this funeral was all paid for by Tara's family.

Moreover, through this funeral, old Aluta has transferred Tara's three stores to his own name, and the others have also made money.

It can be said that the death of Tara benefited all the people of Mulan, and they didn't care how Tara's family was treated.

But it’s different because the person who pried open the coffin is Nan Batian.

Because he is rich, and with money he can extort money, so he wants justice for the Tara family.

To put it bluntly: Tara's family are our beloved relatives and friends. If you dig their graves - you have to pay extra!

Seeing Nan Batian actually took out an arrow and tried to refuse, Old Alutai was not happy at that time. We haven't squeezed out the oil yet. Thinking of this, Old Alutai said: "Master Yelu, this is pure frame-up, and there is no fuss about an arrow in Tara's coffin."

"Tara's ancestors were sharpshooters under the Khan. Tara also liked to practice archery. After he died, would it be a problem if we threw an arrow in? What can one arrow prove?"

Old Aluta spoke directly and gave a very reasonable explanation. Yes, the Mulan people like archery. Does it violate the law if they throw an arrowhead in as a burial object?

This sentence made Nan Batian dumbfounded. Yes, even if the Mulan people threw an arrow into the coffin, it wouldn't mean anything!

When Old Alutai said this, he looked at Yelu and said, "Master Yelu, these Han people are just trying to find excuses to blaspheme the souls of our Mulan. Master, we are all the people of Changshengtian, descendants of the Canglang and Bailu. You can't just watch them bully us!"

"Please make the decision for us, the Mulan people."

"Please, sir, make the decision for us Mulan people!"

Old Aluta knew how to incite the masses. He shouted at this time, and then all the Mulan people saluted Yelu and put Yelu there.

Yelu couldn't say anything at this time. Their demands were reasonable and he had no choice but to agree to them.

Thinking of Yelu, he said, "Nan Batian, do you have anything else to say?"

Nan Batian was stunned for a moment and then said, "No, no more."

Yelu said: "You think you can get away with it just by shooting an arrow? You are really ridiculous. You have nothing to say!"

“Ah, this~”

Nan Batian wanted to say something, but Tang Ziyue beside him tugged at his clothes. Nan Batian swallowed the words he wanted to explain himself and glanced at Tang Ziyue in surprise.

Tang Ziyue shook his head.

It is now obvious that the situation is very unfavorable to him, and Lord Yelu wants to settle the matter peacefully.

In this case, no matter how much you quibble, it will only leave a bad impression on Lord Yelu, so it is best to say nothing and wait for Lord Yelu's judgment. Moreover, Lord Yelu will not press too hard just based on the fact that he dug up the grave.

Nan Batian saw this and said, "I have nothing to say. I will leave it to you, my Lord."

Yelu thought for a moment and said, "In that case, you pay 20,000 taels of silver, half of which is used to repair these tombs, and the other half is used to compensate the old and young. How about that?"

After hearing this, Nan Batian said, "Okay."

Nan Batian was still willing to pay for things that could be solved with money, but at this time, the old Alutai on the other side said, "Lord Yelu, just paying money is not enough. I just heard them say that Nan Batian pried open Chen Jiusi's coffin today, and then kowtowed three times before leaving."

"He can kowtow to the Han people, so why can't he kowtow to us Mulan people? We Mulan people will never let the Han people suppress us. He has to kowtow three times to our Mulan people's coffins today, and then it will be over. Otherwise, this matter will not be over. We will not agree."

"If you don't agree, kowtow!"

"Yes, you must kowtow!"

Shouts were heard one after another, and the crowd was really excited!

Seeing this scene, Yelu frowned slightly, while Nan Batian's face turned pale. He kowtowed, and he kowtowed to the Mulan people. I didn't do anything else today, so I kowtowed?

Nan Batian had a dark face and said nothing. Qin Ying also got angry and pointed at Mu Lanren and said, "Don't go too far. We came here to dig graves to help the court find weapons. Now we have paid 20,000 taels of silver as compensation. How can it not be enough? Why do you still make us kowtow?"

After hearing this, some people from Mulan said, "Why don't you kowtow? You kowtowed when you pried open Chen Jiusi's coffin, so why don't you kowtow when you come to us? No, no!"

"Yes, no, you must kowtow."

"Then Chen Jiusi didn't ask us to pay any money!"

Qin Ying shouted: "Or we won't pay the money, we'll just kowtow!"

Ok?
Nan Batian turned and looked at Qin Ying.

But the other side refused to give in, and shouted, "No, you have to pay the money and kowtow. If you don't kowtow, do you look down on us Mulan people? Or do you think we Mulan people are no match for Chen Jiusi? You kowtowed to him, so why shouldn't you kowtow to me? Do you think we are inferior to Chen Jiusi?"

"Yeah, are we inferior to Chen Jiusi? We must kowtow!"

As the voices rang out, Nan Batian's face turned pale. Qin Ying wanted to curse him, but unexpectedly Yelu spoke up: "Well, Gang Leader Nan, they are right. I think you should kowtow to these undead spirits. After all, you disturbed their meditation."

"Master Yelu, is this..."

Nan Batian wanted to struggle, but Yelu frowned and said, "Why is it that Gang Leader Nan has two minds, or do you really think that we Mulan people are lowly and inferior to the Han people? You can kowtow to the Han people, but you can't kowtow to the Mulan people, right?"

"No, no adults."

Nan Batian said with a bitter face at this time that Yelu's words were simply murderous and heart-breaking. He looked down on the Mulan people. What a big hat! How dare he look down on the Mulan people?
Everyone in this world belongs to the Mulan people. Why does he look down on the Mulan people?

But if I don't kowtow, it means I look down on the people of Mulan. Lord Yelu has spoken, and I am forced to kowtow.

Kowtow again?
Did I not check the almanac before going out today? First I kowtowed to Chen Jiusi, and now I have to kowtow to Mulanren.

I have six heads when I go out. Don’t I, Nan Batian, have any face to save?
Don't kowtow?
Nan Batian looked towards Yelu, only to see Yelu looking at him with a smile on his face, but his eyes were icy cold, so cold that it pierced his bones. How could he not kowtow?

Try it without knocking.

Yelu himself is a Mulan people, and his position is also biased towards the Mulan people, especially since the Mulan people are right this time.

Moreover, what Mulan people said just now irritated him: "Chen Jiusi can kowtow, but we Mulan people can't. Do you think we Mulan people are inferior to Han people?"

Yes, we Mulan people are not as good as you Han people?
Nan Batian looked at Yelu's unquestionable eyes, and finally lowered his proud head: "I kowtow!"

……

Nan Batian made the decision in great humiliation. Qin Ying looked at him in disbelief, as he saw that the leader of the gang who used to be so powerful and domineering and suppressed the Mian River had already kowtowed twice today.

Of course, Nan Batian had no intention of letting Qin Ying go, and he said directly: "Let's knock together!"

My goodness, Qin Ying and other younger brothers cursed Nan Batian's ancestors in their hearts. Don't be so shameless. You are forcing us to kowtow, right? We have followed you for nothing else today, but we have been sticking our butts out and kowtowed all day.

Nan Batian also figured it out. If one person kowtows, it is a shame, but if a group of people kowtow, it is performance art. As long as I am not the only one who is embarrassed, there is no problem.

He has gained some experience from this.

There is a saying: If you are a wanderer, you are a person with a miserable fate. You have no control over anything, not even a little bit over others.

Although Nan Batian was the leader of a gang and ranked first among the Han people in Mianshui County, he had no way out under the high pressure of the powerful Mulan people. He could only lower his noble head, bend his knees, stick out his butt, rub his head against the ground, and kowtow to apologize.

Nan Batian knelt down. When the people of Mulan around him saw this scene, they immediately became excited. Nan Batian actually knelt down in front of them.

Haha... Nan Batian, he is the leader of Chen Jiusi’s gang. He has even knelt down to him. Can Chen Jiusi still suppress him?
Thinking of this, Mu Lanren smiled happily.

Nan Batian knelt on the ground, and Qin Ying and others knelt down unwillingly as well, facing the coffin, sticking their buttocks out and kowtowing their heads.

One, two, three!
Since he had made up his mind to kowtow, he should not hesitate. Nan Batian kowtowed three times to the coffin. Seeing this, some people from Mulan were acting badly and shouted, "Get up, good grandson!"

Humiliation, naked humiliation.

Nan Batian gritted his teeth and muttered in his heart that a lack of patience will ruin a great plan. If Han Xin could endure the humiliation under his crotch, then so can I!

Nan Batian endured it and looked at Yelu and said, "My lord, do you have any other instructions?"

Yelu looked at him calmly and said, "Alright, this matter ends here today. From now on, neither of you is allowed to have any disputes over this."

After saying this, Nan Batian and Mu Lanren remained silent, indicating that they were satisfied with the matter.

After waiting for Nan Batian's promise to deliver 20,000 taels of silver to them within two days, the Mulan people left satisfied. You said that the Tara family's coffins have not been put back yet?
Lao Aluta and others said that it didn't matter. It just so happened that the traditional funeral method of their Mulan tribe was sky burial. Now that they had been eaten by wild beasts, the funeral was considered complete. As for putting it back in the grave and filling it with soil again.

Old Aluta said that it was totally unnecessary and it was a pure waste of money and a shameful behavior.

In the end, Yelu couldn't bear it anymore and asked Nan Batian and others to close the coffin and bury it back in the pit.

Nan Batian had no choice but to take his men to bury Tara's family. Just after the burial was completed, Yelu was about to leave when someone stopped him.

"Master Yelu, please stay."

When Yelu turned around, he saw a man dressed like a scholar, wearing a Confucian robe and holding a folding fan in his hand.

Seeing this person, Yelu asked, "Who are you?"

"Student Tang Ziyue, nice to meet you, sir."

Seeing Tang Ziyue being very respectful, Yelu asked, "Have you ever been to school?"

Tang Ziyue said: "I'm ashamed to say that I have only read some classics."

"The doctrine of the mean values ​​harmony..."

Yelu was also a fan of Han culture, so he casually said a classic sentence. After hearing this, Tang Ziyue continued directly: "The way of a gentleman is to keep to the middle." "The way of the mean is to go with the flow?"

"It is in accordance with the will of heaven and earth and in harmony with the people's hearts."

Tang Ziyue answered fluently, and Yelu nodded slightly and said, "Yes, you have read books and are a scholar. What do you want from me?"

Yelu admired Han culture, so he had a good impression of scholars. He looked at Tang Ziyue and asked.

Tang Ziyue heard this and said, "Master Yelu, I have heard that you are proficient in Chinese studies. I wonder if you have studied the Zhouyi and Fengshui in Chinese studies?"

"Feng Shui?"

Yelu frowned slightly and said, "The Book of Changes is profound and extensive. I can only see a small part of it and I am afraid that I may not be able to understand it. Do you want to talk to me about Feng Shui?"

Tang Ziyue said: "Yes, and no. Sir, please take a look at the Feng Shui of this place."

Yelu looked around and saw woods in front and a river behind. He couldn't help but frown. This place didn't look very good!
Tang Ziyue said: "Your Excellency must have seen the problem. That's right. This is a Feng Shui treasure land since ancient times. Most of them are mountain ranges. Burying near the mountain will bring blessings to future generations, while burying near the water will bring great misfortune."

"Especially here!"

Tang Ziyue pointed around and said, "Please look, sir. This place is so close to the river. As long as it is the flood season, the flood will definitely wash this place down. By then, these coffins will be soaked in water. If the treasure cave is flooded, it will be extremely dangerous."

Upon hearing this, Yelu looked around, at the river, at the coffins, and frowned, "What do you want to say?"

"Sir, don't you think it's weird? Who wouldn't want to have descendants when they are buried here? But this place is made into an evil grave. Are they afraid that Tara's descendants will be prosperous? This doesn't make sense!"

Qimuge heard this and said, "The Tara family was wiped out, and there are no descendants."

Tang Ziyue: (⊙o⊙)…

"That's too weird. How could a Feng Shui master choose such a dangerous place when choosing a cemetery for someone? Isn't that very strange?"

Yelu said: "Go on."

"But, sir, I just checked it carefully. If you don't follow Feng Shui, this place is really well chosen. This place is simply a Feng Shui treasure land for transportation."

"As long as we have some boats parked on the Mian River, when the coffins arrive, we can just dump the weapons onto the boats and pull them away, floating them downstream. In less than an hour, they will merge into the main stream of the Mian River, and then head north, with no traffic, and become weapons for the Zoroastrians in the north."

"And sir, you should have seen this arrowhead just now. They said it was Tara's thing when he was alive. But if you look closely, you will find that this arrowhead was tempered with new fire and the finished product is no more than five days old. It is such a new arrowhead, and the back groove is not worn. This means that the arrowhead has not been pressed. Sir, do the Mulan people need to press the arrowhead themselves when making bows and arrows?"

"So I have reason to suspect that this arrowhead was probably dropped on the scene when they made a mistake while working."

Yelu was silent for a moment and said, "These are just your one-sided words. How can I believe you and believe that you are not colluding with Zoroastrianism?"

Tang Ziyue said, "Sir, you are right to doubt. At this moment, no one can say that they are innocent. But Sir, we have been caught by you and we have accepted the punishment. We have no reason to bring up the past and attract your attention again."

"If I were a Zoroastrian, I would hide quietly and not show my face, instead of showing it in front of adults like I did. Because according to adults' wisdom, the more we show, the more loopholes we will have, and the easier it will be for adults to find flaws. So I am also daring to say this!"

Upon hearing this, Yelu looked at Tang Ziyue. He was indeed convinced by Tang Ziyue, because the idea proposed by Tang Ziyue was indeed very novel and highly feasible. If he were a Zoroastrian demon, he would probably use this trick.

The military equipment was transported to the river bank in the coffins of the Mulan people, and then directly loaded onto the boat and floated downstream. From this tributary of the Mian River, the boat directly merged into the mainstream, and then went up along the Mian River to be transported to the north.

But when they reach the north, these weapons will become weapons in the hands of the Zoroastrian demons and be used to kill their own Mulan warriors, and all this will be their own fault.

Thinking of this, Yelu frowned and asked, "Tang Ziyue, do you mean that this batch of military equipment has been transported out of the city, or even along the river out of the Mianshui River?"

Tang Ziyue said: "Sir, I think the batch of military equipment has been transported out of the city, but I think it has not been transported out of the Mian River yet."

"Oh, tell me."

Yelu looked at Tang Ziyue, who said, "If we want to transport it to the north, ordinary boats can't do it. We need a slightly larger merchant ship, and there are only three forces in Mianshui County that have merchant ships."

Yelu narrowed his eyes and asked, "Cao Gang, Yu Gang, Baihu Tang?"

Tang Ziyue said: "That's right, these three companies almost monopolize the entire Mianshui freight business. The largest one with the most ships is the Cao Gang, followed by our Fishing Gang and the White Tiger Hall."

"Oh, you mean, if we want to transport this batch of military equipment out of the city, we have to use the cargo ships of these three companies. So if we stop the cargo ships, it will be difficult for them to transport it out of the Mian River. In this way, we are catching a turtle in a jar?"

Tang Ziyue laughed and said, "Hahaha, that's right."

Yelu nodded slightly and said: "Well, you are very smart!"

Tang Ziyue said: "Thank you for the compliment, Lord Yelu. This is what I should do."

Yelu said: "If it is really as you said, I will give you the credit."

"Sir, I don't care whether I get the first prize or not. I just hope you can give my boss a chance. This time, my boss was indeed plotted against. Please understand."

Tang Ziyue clasped his fists. Yelu frowned and looked at Tang Ziyue and said, "Do you want to use your suggestion to exchange for your leader's future?"

Tang Ziyue said: "No, I hope you can give our leader a chance. After all, whether it is checking cargo ships or searching for suspicious ships on the water, these are all things our leader is good at. Please give our leader a way to atone for his sins!"

"A water search?"

Yelu looked at Tang Ziyue in confusion. Tang Ziyue said, "That's right, it's a water search. Sir, there are only two boats on the Mianshui River, one is the fishing gang and the other is the shipping gang. The disciples of my fishing gang are all over the Mianshui River."

"If the enemy uses a ship to transport the weapons away, they will definitely be seen."

"See? Even if they see it, how can they confirm it is a weapon?"

Qimuge was wondering, Tang Ziyue smiled and said, "Commander, iron is different from other things. It is heavy. The boat is pulling weapons, so its draft depth is the same. These experienced fishermen can see it at a glance. So as long as these people walk on the Mianshui River, they will have nowhere to hide!"

Yelu heard this and said, "Oh, your fishing gang also has this method?"

After hearing this, Nan Batian finally came to his senses and said, "Master Yelu, don't worry. As long as this batch of weapons traveled by water, there must be clues left behind. I will go back and mobilize the troops immediately to search the entire Mianshui River for possible boats. They can't escape!"

Tang Ziyue said: "In addition, Lord Yelu needs to write a letter to the river patrol envoys of the major prefectures along the way. In addition, we will also let our gang leader communicate with the major fishing gangs and the brother gangs of the shipping gangs along the way to jointly intercept this batch of weapons and never let it be delivered to the north."

After hearing this, Nan Batian said, "Yes, yes, I will contact my friends on the river and will definitely get this batch of weapons back for you!"

After hearing what Nan Batian said, Yelu's mouth curled up slightly, and a smile appeared on his face: "Hahaha, good, good, Gang Leader Nan is indeed loyal. In this case, then the inspection will be handed over to you. If you can find this batch of weapons, Gang Leader Nan will still be the number one gang leader of our Mianshui!"

"Thank you for your kindness, sir."

Nan Batian quickly clasped his fists in thanks, he had been in quite a close call, almost having all his rights taken away from him, but now things had turned around and he seemed to be standing up again.

Thinking of Nan Batian, he said, "Sir, there is also Liu Laoguai's Cao Gang on the water, and he has the most cargo ships. I'm afraid he won't cooperate!"

After hearing this, Yelu said, "This matter is simple. I will let Old Monster Liu cooperate with you."

Upon hearing this, Nan Batian clasped his fists and said, "This way, there will be no risk of error. Don't worry, sir. As long as they dare to walk on the water, I will definitely make it difficult for them to escape. I will mobilize all my brothers along the river, and by then, I will ensure that not even a sparrow can fly over the Mianshui River. They will definitely not be able to escape even if they have wings."

After hearing this, Yelu laughed and said, "Hahaha, good, good, good, that's very good."

"I feel relieved with what Gang Leader Nan said. I will leave this matter to you. As long as you can find this batch of weapons for me, I will forgive the past."

"Yes!"

Nan Batian immediately clasped his fists and a smile appeared on his face. His power was back, even greater than before!
Seeing this, Yelu said, "Okay, I'll leave the rest to you."

After saying this, Yelu reached out, and Qimuge pulled a waist badge from his waist and handed it to Nan Batian, saying: "This is the waist badge of the lord Daruhachi. Holding this badge is like the lord himself is here!"

As soon as these words were spoken, Nan Batian's eyes suddenly lit up, and he took the badge directly. With this badge, he would become very powerful.

This is the imperial sword of Mianshui County.

Yelu gave the badge and left. Nan Batian's face was full of joy holding the badge. He turned to look at Tang Ziyue with a smile on his face. He thought that Tang Ziyue was his most respected strategist who could pull him out of the sea of ​​suffering when he was in the most difficult time.

You see, with just a few words, he got Lord Darughachi to assign the important task of searching for military equipment to him again, and as long as the military equipment was found, he would forgive the past and he would still be the number one man in Mianshui.

The most important thing is that now that I have this power in my hands, I must do something to mess with Chen Jiusi and the others.

All this was thanks to Tang Ziyue. Nan Batian couldn't help but sigh: "I have Ziyue, just like Liu Bang has Zhang Liang!"

With such emotion, Tang Ziyue clasped his fists and said, "Boss, now is not the time to be sentimental. We still have important things to do."

"Oh, Ziyue, tell me quickly."

Nan Batian looked at Tang Ziyue, and Tang Ziyue said: "Seal off the docks of Chen Jiusi and Liu Laoguai, and then count their ships, especially Chen Jiusi. As long as one ship is missing, he will not be involved in this matter. At that time, hehe..."

"Wonderful, wonderful!"

After hearing what Tang Ziyue said, Nan Batian couldn't help but applaud. Yes, seal off Chen Jiusi's wharf and count his ships. As long as there is something missing and he says he won't clear it out, then he's finished.

Thinking of this, Nan Batian said excitedly: "Okay, okay, let's go to Xiantao Ferry first and seal off Chen Jiusi's lair today."

Nan Batian thought with a smile on his face, haha, Chen Jiusi, what’s the point of asking me to kowtow a few times, what’s the point of asking me to lose a few people, this time I will directly steal your home, seal your dock and ships, let’s see how you can fight me.

If you dare to play tricks on me, just wait, I will make sure you know how powerful I, Nan Batian, am.

Thinking of this, Nan Batian waved his hand and said, "Come on, follow me to the ferry crossing of Xiantao Village."

As they spoke, the group headed straight for the ferry crossing at Xiantao Village.

Xiantao Village Ferry is one of the newly developed docks by Chen Jie. Most of the cargo ships are located there, making it Chen Jie’s main transportation channel.

The person in charge is Uncle Zhong.

This is also one of the ways Chen Jie wants to support Uncle Zhong.

At this time, with an order, Nan Batian led 700 people and rushed directly to Xiantao Ferry.

During this process, Nan Batian ordered the issuance of two fishing gang orders:
[1. From now on, cargo ships are not allowed to go down the Mianshui River. Those who violate the order will be severely punished] Signed: Nan Batian by order of the Darughachi Mansion!

[2. Reward order, reward, all overloaded and suspicious boats found on the Mianshui River recently can be reported to the fishing gang. After the report is successful, if there is real evidence, the reporter will be rewarded with ten taels of silver.]

Don't underestimate these ten taels of silver. We have also been through the days of poverty and we know the purchasing power of ten taels of silver. That represents the food money for a family for two or three years!

Therefore, when these two messages were sent out at the same time, Nan Batian felt that he would definitely gain something.

Soon the group could no longer reach Xiantao Ferry. Wu Zhong, who had heard the news, rushed over in a hurry. When he saw Nan Batian, he clasped his fists and said, "Boss, hello!"

"What kind of wind brings you here?"

After hearing this, Nan Batian looked at Wu Zhong and said, "Wu Zhong, are you in charge of the White Tiger Hall's ship dispatch now?"

Wu Zhong said: "Yes."

Nan Batian said, "Well, that's great. Let your people drive all the ships back and don't move the cargo on the ships. Let us check. Oh, and bring out all the sailing records. If there's a discrepancy, Wu Zhong, you're in big trouble."

"Well, what do you mean, boss? Are you going to seal off our dock?"

Nan Batian said: "Yes, is there a problem?"

Wu Zhong said, "Boss, I'm afraid that won't work. Our White Tiger Hall's shipping business is separate from the headquarters. Even you can't force us not to sail, let alone seal our dock. This is against the rules."

Nan Batian looked at Wu Zhong and said, "It's against the rules. Let me tell you, from now on, my rules are the rules here!"

"Hey, why are you so unconvinced, Wu Zhong?"

"I dare not, I dare not, you are the leader of the gang, how dare I not accept it!"

Wu Zhong said with a smile. Nan Batian heard this, looked at Wu Zhong and said, "Okay, you still don't accept it and think that I am using my status as the gang leader to pressure you. Don't worry, I, Nan Batian, have never been the kind of person who uses my status to pressure others. Look at what this is."

Nan Batian then took out Yelu's badge and waved it in front of Wu Zhong.

Wu Zhong took a look and saw only the words "Daruhachi" written on it.

Darughachi, is it Lord Yelu who wants to close our wharf?
Wu Zhong didn't think that Nan Batian would lie to him. After all, there was no need for that. Even if Nan Batian used violence, he would have to submit to him because of his status as the leader of the gang. So there was no need for him to make up a Darughachi.

Nan Batian looked at Wu Zhong and said, "Are you convinced now? Hurry up and get the sailing records and all the cargo ships. Otherwise, if one ship is missing, you will have to think about how to explain to Lord Yelu."

Wu Zhong was not panicked after hearing this, but made a gesture of invitation.

Soon they entered the dock, and Wu Zhong said, "I have a total of eight cargo ships here, all of which are docked here today."

"There are also 52 fishing boats, you see they are all here too. We are resting today, so no boats will go out to sea."

The accounts are clear at a glance, not a single ship has been launched, rest?
What about the liar?
Nan Batian glanced at Tang Ziyue, only to see that Tang Ziyue also had an ugly expression on his face. It seemed that the other party was well prepared. Chen Jiusi, didn’t Chen Jiusi already expect that he would come to seal off their wharf?
There was almost no place for Nan Batian to cause trouble here, and in the end he could only leave with a lot of anger.

Nan Batian said angrily: "This is weird. Chen Jiusi's ship did not set sail today."

Tang Ziyue asked, "What about Old Monster Liu?"

Soon, the two of them brought their people to Liu Laoguai's place. Although they sealed off Liu Laoguai's dock, they still did not find any suspicious ships. The two of them were completely dumbfounded. What was going on? Could it be that they guessed wrong, and the other party did not walk through the river at all?

But this, how is this possible!
The two were puzzled, and Tang Ziyue was almost scratching his head. He looked at Nan Batian and said, "Boss, I didn't make a mistake again."

Nan Batian was also stunned for a long time, and then said with a ferocious face: "There will be no mistakes this time, and there must be no mistakes. We only have this one chance!"

As Nan Batian spoke, his eyes turned red, just like a gambler.

The group really gained nothing and were tired, so they decided to go back to the Fishing Gang's headquarters to rest. In addition, Nan Batian sent two groups of people to guard the Xiantao Village ferry and the Fishing Gang's dock. Regardless of whether they had any connection with Zoroastrianism, it would be good to guard the two docks first.

At the very least, if their boats cannot be launched, their income will be reduced. Without income, their gang will definitely be in trouble.

Thinking of this, Nan Batian and his party returned to the city.

After a day of running around, feeling tired and humiliated, Nan Batian changed his clothes, touched his stomach and decided to have a meal. However, it was boring to eat alone, so he got up and went to the courtyard where his wife was.

I haven't seen my wife for several days. It's a good opportunity to have a meal with her today.

Thinking of this, he went straight to the west courtyard. When he arrived at the gate of the west courtyard, the guard stood straight, looked at Nan Batian and said, "Hello, boss."

Nan Batian said: "Well, Madam, are you okay today?"

The guards said, "It's okay. Just stay quietly in the yard!"

Nan Batian said: "Well, go ask the kitchen to prepare something that Madam likes to eat. I will eat at Madam's place tonight."

"Yes."

The guard responded, and Nan Batian pushed the door open. A moment later, he suddenly heard Nan Batian's roar: "Where's my wife? Where's my wife!!"
