Chapter 1009: The Dock
Wang Dazhang, who was in a coma, finally woke up after being rescued by a group of wives and concubines, although his people had been pinched and swollen after waking up, but this was just a minutiae, the important thing was that he woke up.
However, after waking up, Wang Dazhang would rather not wake up, because after seeing him wake up, Yang Feng pressed him and rushed to the west wharf of the city, seeing that the grain he personally collected at a low price was about to be snatched away, our Wang shopkeeper fainted with a bang.
Yang Feng's movement in Jinling City was so big that anyone who wasn't blind should be able to see it, but until now, no one had come to stop him, which also made Yang Feng, who had already prepared, feel very puzzled.
You must know that Jinling is the capital of the Ming Dynasty and the most important political and economic center in the south, and no one has come forward to stop such a big thing, which is really abnormal.
But I don't understand, but things still have to be done, as a group of cavalry whizz through the streets, the atmosphere in Jinling City became more and more tense......
"Whew...... Whew......"
Li Zheng was panting and running in an alley, at this time he looked very embarrassed, he was in a hurry, and he didn't have time to change the clothes on his body, and he was still a military general of the third grade.
It stands to reason that if Li Zhengruo walks on the street in such clothes on weekdays, he is definitely easy to dispel, full of awe-inspiring eyes, but now he is greeted with doubts and incomprehension.
There is no other reason, it is really that Li Zheng's image is too bad at this moment, the military attache uniform has been broken in several places due to a beating, plus the large pool of blood on the buttocks and the pain makes his face extremely pale and haggard, and he looks no different from a gangster who has lost a fight with someone.
No, running in the alley, he has already attracted the malicious eyes of many splashes wandering the streets.
This also made Li Zheng feel extremely angry, if it was on weekdays, this kind of splash who was gangstering on the street would not even be qualified to lick the soles of his shoes, but today these people actually dared to look at him with this kind of gaze, which also made our Lord Li feel extremely humiliated.
But as the old saying goes, a feathered phoenix is not as good as a chicken, and now he is no longer Jiang Ningwei's commander, but a wanted fugitive, he can be sure that the person who captured him at this moment must be on the way, and it is even very likely that he is not far from him, and he shuddered at the thought of the fate of being caught.
Run...... Running desperately, he didn't dare to stop even though the pain from his hips was getting stronger and stronger.
It's just that sometimes the body will not be transferred by the will of the person, slowly he feels that his legs have hurt and slowly lost consciousness, when he ran to the end of an alley, he could no longer support his knees, and he fell down with a pop, and when he struggled to get up, a pair of legs slowly appeared in front of him.
Li Zheng tried to raise his head in a daze, and after a while, he saw that several big men dressed in short clothes and sturdy bodies were standing in front of him, and a man led by him showed a hideous smile at him, "Lord Li, you are always running very fast, so that the villain is easy to find for a while, come with us now, our master is still waiting for you." ”
"Sir...... Is it Wang Dazhang, it's not good ......?"
In a daze, Li Zheng fainted, and when he fainted, he felt in a daze that he was lifted up and thrown into a big car, and then he didn't know it again.
The wharf in the west of the city is close to the Qinhuai River, here is also an important transit station in Jinling City, the ships that come and go every day are endless, these ships from the south to the north not only transport countless goods from all over the country, but also transport the things of Jinling City to all parts of the country, especially the most ships in the south of the Yangtze River.
Because there are so many goods loaded and unloaded every day, in order to meet the needs, businessmen with a keen sense of smell have built a large number of warehouses here, and in the east near the wharf, Wang Dazhang's Dongsheng firm has built more than 50 warehouses here as a place to reserve materials, which shows the strength of Dongsheng.
It was noon, but the wharf was still full of people, many ships docked on the wharf, and countless porters kept loading or unloading the ships on the wharf, which seemed to be a busy scene.
The person in charge of managing these warehouses on the Dongsheng was a young steward named Fu Hengzhuo, who today was holding a small stove in his arms as before, and patrolling along the warehouse while keeping warm.
Fu Hengzhuo knew very well that there were more than 500,000 stone of grain purchased from Jiang Ningwei by their big shopkeeper at a low price, as long as these grains were transported back to Jiangnan, the profits of hundreds of thousands of taels of silver would change hands, as long as this batch of grain could be transported back to Jiangnan smoothly, not to mention how much reward he could get from the owner, he would be able to become the youngest shopkeeper in the history of Dongsheng.
When he patrolled the warehouse twice, one of the men behind him was sneezed several times in a row by the constant cold wind, and he couldn't bear to remind him: "Steward Fu, it's noon now, you should go back to lunch." ”
"Yes, indeed."
Fu Hengzhuo looked up at the sky, it was winter now, the sun was hiding behind the clouds, and the wind was really uncomfortable blowing on his body, and he felt like bacon being dried by the air.
Because he was in a good mood, Fu Hengzhuo had the heart to reward a few guys, and waved his hand: "Let's go, let's go back and make a hot pot with mutton on the hour, and let's have a good drink later." ”
"Okay, thank you for the wine!" A few guys were very happy when they heard it, eating mutton hot pot in this season, and drinking some wine, not to mention how beautiful the taste is, even if you give it to a fairy, you won't change it.
Just as a few guys were hugging Fu Hengzhuo and walking back, a rumbling sound of horses' hooves sounded from the official road in the distance, and the dense sound of horses' hooves made everyone's eyes look over, and soon a team of cavalrymen in black uniforms appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
"Huh...... Where did these cavalrymen come from, and how come I have never seen them in such clothes? Looking at the cavalry that suddenly appeared, Fu Hengzhuo stopped and muttered.
In fact, not only Fu Hengzhuo, but even the busy porter coolies and merchants at the dock also set their eyes on the cavalry.
Most of the people didn't know about this sudden appearance of cavalry, and many people talked about it.
At this time, a businessman suddenly said: "I know, these Jiang Ningwei's cavalry! ”
"Are you stupid or not, who doesn't know that Jiang Ningwei's cavalry wears green clothes, and these people wear black clothes." Someone next to him scoffed.
"You're stupid." The merchant snorted coldly: "They are not ordinary cavalry, of course Jiang Ningwei's ordinary cavalry wear green clothes, but the family members around Jiang Ninghou wear this kind of black clothes." ”
