Chapter 43 Legend! Jiaolong Gang

…

Wang Shouzhe's face turned dark. This little girl was so guilty and afraid of becoming such a virtuous person. She must have not worked hard every day, but she still had the nerve and courage to say in front of him that she should study and practice every day?

"Shouzhe, don't scare the big girl. Look at this child who is scared to tears." Seeing her look, the gentle Xu Zhirou held her in her arms and said with a smile, "Big girl, don't be afraid. I'm afraid, your fourth uncle is teasing you. Think about it, if he really wanted to take the school test, why would he just ask you to come alone? "

So this is ah.

Wang Lizi patted her chest and relaxed immediately. I was really scared to death, so I quickly ate a piece of candied fruit to calm down. Immediately, she picked up a piece of candied fruit and ate it happily.

Seeing this, Wang Shouzhe's face turned even darker. Didn't this poor girl transform from surviving a disaster to a foodie too quickly? Too heartless, right?

With her like that, what else is there to take the exam for?

He had originally thought of finding two female clan members from his family to accompany him all the way to serve the Longyan Ancestor's diet and daily life. One should be older, more mature and stable, and the other should be younger and more energetic.

Wang Shouzhe was naturally quite satisfied with his fourth aunt Xu, but this big girl Wang Lizi...

Headache!

Among the younger female relatives of the tribe, they are his biological sister Wang Luoyi, fourth sister Wang Luotong, and eldest niece Wang Lizi. Because this trip will pass through Donggang, and her sister Wang Luoyi is already engaged to the young master of the Chen family in Donggang, it would not be a good idea to take her to Donggang to show off.

Luo Tong is busy with the last transportation line of grain. After she completes the task, Wang Shouzhe also wants her to follow the aunt Gongsun Hui to handle the follow-up affairs and get more exercise.

Therefore, I will not interrupt Wang Luotong's original arrangement plan.

After much thought, the only suitable candidate who had nothing to do was Wang Lizi. Looking at her innocent look, I almost want to replace her with a smart maid.

However, this thought only passed by for a moment. Since this girl is unwilling to learn her lessons well, it is better to take her with her to train her and put a tight spell on her.

Moreover, it is now a common trend for girls in the family not to study hard at their homework, and this is also the case for girls such as Luo Tong and Luo Jing. Presumably other little girls are probably not much better. Boys are somewhat better off, after all, there is more pressure from their elders.

Such a bad family tradition must be rectified when we turn around.

After thinking about this, Wang Shouzhe returned to the topic for the time being: "Fourth Aunt, I need you to go on a long trip this time. It will take about ten days. You go back and prepare first. We will set off the next day. I don't know. Is there any problem with Fourth Aunt?"

Although Xu Zhirou had some doubts, she still stood up and nodded: "No problem, it all depends on Shouzhe's arrangement."

Wang Lizi's little head was full of doubts, curiosity, and excitement. She was traveling far away. Was her fourth uncle going to take her to Changning Guard? In her mind, Changningwei was far enough away, and she had never been there twice since she was so old.

Time passed in such a hurry for two days.

In the early morning, when the sky was just getting dark.

A four- to five-foot-long awning boat sailed into Zhuwei Lake from the dock in the backyard of Wang's main house, and then headed all the way to Fenggu Farm.

This was the route arranged by Wang Shouzhe. When Patriarch Longyan traveled, he naturally had to act in secret. It would be too ostentatious to take a carriage to Dingpu Ferry to take a boat.

It is better to take a big boat through Fenggu Gate like the grain transportation route. After all, it is our own territory.

There were not many people traveling with the Longyan ancestor this time. Wang Shouzhe brought two family generals, Wang Zhong and Wang Yong, as well as his fourth aunt Xu Zhirou and the eldest girl Wang Lizi. There were six people in total including the ancestor.

Wang Zhong and Wang Yong are in charge of driving the boat outside. Although they are not professional, it is very easy to control this small and medium-sized awning boat using Xuanwu master's methods, and the speed of the pole and oar is quite fast.

Inside the awning boat.

Wang Lizi's eyes widened and she clutched the bundle tightly with both hands, not even daring to take a breath. The fourth uncle didn't tell him in advance that he was traveling with Longyan Ancestor.

That was the ancestor of the family, a more terrifying existence than the fourth uncle.

The surprise given by my fourth uncle was so great that it was hard to digest.

"Ancestor, this is the itinerary and arrangement. Fourth Aunt and Li Ci are responsible for taking care of your daily life." Wang Shouzhe respectfully introduced the various arrangements for this trip to Ancestor Longyan.

"I can rest assured that Shouzhe is doing his job." Longyan ancestor was still very satisfied with Wang Shouzhe's thoughtful arrangements, and then said to Xu Zhirou, "Zhirou, you have to work hard on this trip."

Xu Zhirou hurriedly said humbly: "It is Zhirou's duty and honor to serve the ancestor."

After that, Longyan Patriarch looked at Wang Lici again, with a rare tenderness in his eyes: "You kid, I haven't called you to see you for two years. In the blink of an eye, you are a big girl. I have been studying hard recently. How's it going?"

Towards the younger members of the family, Longyan Ancestor is usually relatively kind. In particular, Patriarch Long Yan is the third generation granddaughter of Patriarch Zhou Xuan, while Wang Lizi is already the eighth generation of the family.

"Scared?" Wang Lizi was stunned and asked about homework again?

Fortunately, she had learned from her fourth uncle's lessons in school exams, so she was already prepared.

Wang Lici rolled her eyes and said hurriedly: "I've been working very hard recently. I'll recite some articles to my ancestor..." As she said this, she couldn't wait to recite an article - "Climbing the Sky to View the Sky at Night" , was written thousands of years ago by a powerful person in the realm of heaven and human beings and a senior literary figure. This article has gorgeous and heroic words and is deeply loved by later generations.

Literature is an extremely important layer in any civilization and has the function of cultivating sentiments and increasing cultural heritage. If human beings only know how to fight and kill, do not cultivate their moral character or cultivate their nature, and only pursue power and killing throughout their lives, what is the difference between them and wild beasts?

Wang Shouzhe felt helpless and amused when he heard her reciting fluently and with some emotion. What you call "recent study" means that you have been cramming in the past two days, right? I'm afraid you can memorize this article fluently, right?

However, she didn't reveal her true identity. Anyway, the ancestor looked very pleased and praised and encouraged her a few words.

The awning boat meandered all the way to Fenggu Farm. It didn't stop after arriving at the farm. It shuttled past and reached the [Fenggu Gate]. Everyone left the awning boat and crossed the gate. There was a medium-sized river boat waiting there.

This river boat is a medium-sized sailing ship. Even if it is a carriage without a load, it can be stable. I don't know where Wang Dinghai borrowed it from.

"Shou Zhe, as you ordered." Sixth Uncle Wang Dinghai came up to greet him, "The cabin has been slightly renovated, and a temporary rest room has been set up. You are so mysterious, are you preparing... hmm?"

Wang Dinghai suddenly noticed the Longyan ancestor behind Wang Shouzhe, and his eyes almost popped out of his head. Are you kidding? The ancestor actually went on a trip...

He was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat. When he was about to salute, Wang Shouzhe stopped him: "Uncle Six, stop it. Just take the helm and drive to Donggang."

"Yes, I will definitely steer the ship well." Wang Dinghai looked pale and hurriedly asked Wang Shouzhe and others to enter the temporary rest room in the cabin, and then went out to sail the ship without saying a word.

For ancestors to travel, it must be a big deal.

But the big things are not as important as the safety of Ancestor Longyan. Therefore, under his control and command, the ship slowly sailed away from the deep water area outside Fenggu Gate and steadily reached the center of Anjiang River.

At the center of the river, the wind and waves gradually increased, and the sails were opened in an orderly manner. The dense canvas bulged to catch the wind, and the ship's speed gradually increased.

On Earth, the speed of a ship is measured in knots.

However, in the Daqian Kingdom in this world, it is still calculated in terms of miles per hour. The wind was from the southeast today, and the water flowed eastward and was very fast. The speed reached fifty or sixty miles an hour without realizing it.

It sounds very fast, but it is only equivalent to a speed of more than ten kilometers per hour, two or three times the walking speed of a normal person.

The sixth uncle, Wang Dinghai, is indeed a master who has made a living on the Anjiang River all year round. His boat is as steady as flowing clouds and flowing water. Wang Shouzhe and others felt less discomfort from the shaking in the rest room of the cabin.

However, Wang Shouzhe was young and strong, so staying in the cabin was inevitably boring. Then he confessed his crime to the ancestor and ran to the deck to enjoy the scenery. Seeing Wang Dinghai at the helm again, he immediately ran to have a look.

"Uncle Six, this boat looks good. It looks like a merchant ship. Where did you borrow it from?" Wang Shouzhe looked at the boat. The boatmen on the boat were obviously not from the Wang family's fishing fleet.

Wang Dinghai took the helm and said: "You sent someone to tell me to find a better boat, so I borrowed one from a friend from the Changning branch of Jiaolong Commercial Bank. That old boy owed me a favor. The boat he was responsible for last time The team had an accident on our property, and it was Uncle Liu who took the risk and saved him."

Jiaolong Trading Company?

Of course Wang Shouzhe had also heard of this trading house. Their way of doing business was to walk along the entire Anjiang River, from Dahuang County in the west to Longzuo County, which spanned several counties. They had branches in cities along the river.

This is a trading company whose overall strength is not inferior to that of Qian's Trading Company, but they only do business along the river and do not conflict with the local forces in the counties.

"Shou Zhe, don't even think about doing business by water." Wang Dinghai reminded solemnly, "Jiaolong Trading Company is not easy to mess with. You must know that they used to be called the Jiaolong Gang, a gang secretly supported by several powerful families. Recently. After decades of business growth, it was changed to a trading company. They signed non-infringement clauses with local families from all over the country. "

Come on! It turned out to be a trading company laundered by evil forces. No wonder they had the strength to occupy the important waterway of An Giang.

However, Wang Shouzhe didn't know whether to find it funny or tragic. When reading fantasy novels on Earth, the Dragon Gang and the Raging Dragon Society were all unfashionable forces, and they were all places where the protagonist gained experience in the early stages.

Why did he get here and suddenly turned into a behemoth that was not easy to mess with!
