Chapter 10 Luck
Before nightfall, hundreds of people wearing coarse cloth clothes came to the Changling Fish Market silently.
These people in the martial arts world carry various weapons of different lengths. They don’t even hide their faces. They seem to be very arrogant, but after they arrive outside the fish market, these people in the martial arts world are very low-key and do not enter the fish market. They just gather at various exits of the fish market, sitting on the ground, not asking for trouble, not talking to others, and even not talking much to each other.
The most popular fish market in Changling is of course fish.
In addition to fresh fish, there are also a large number of salted fish from Jiaodong County.
Compared with the fresh fish produced in the Wei River, Jiaodong County’s salted fish is not only cheaper, but also stored for a long time. For ordinary people, buying one can be used for a long time.
Even if it is the most common vegetable soup, cut some chopped salted fish into it and it will taste more out of thin air.
Of course these are open businesses.
There are naturally many shameful businesses in the fish market in Changling.
Some horse thieves in remote places will sell stolen goods through the fish market, and some other things in this dynasty are not suitable for taking action in this dynasty, so they will also look for buyers in such miscellaneous markets.
Some businesses are very trivial, especially border trade. For many families in Guanzhong and Changling, they usually do official businesses.
Through some powerful people, they can obtain many formal approvals and monopolize many such border trade businesses in their own hands, which are businesses that ordinary merchants cannot rob.
As for those trivial and troublesome businesses, almost all are done by some other clans in the country.
The most common fish market are merchants from Jiaodong County.
In fact, the origin of these gangsters in Changling has a slightly more powerful person in charge. They should be all under Ye Xiao's subordinates. Since Jiaodong County has challenged Ye Xiao's authority, Ye Xiao will naturally make Jiaodong County pay the price.
But from the appearance of these men in the martial arts world to the real night, even when the people from the fish market come in and out and walk past them, they still say nothing and do nothing.
Even the generals of the military admired this ability to restrain their subordinates, especially the ability to restrain these outlaws.
Dozens of elite city guards were standing silently outside a pavilion not far from the fish market, wearing black soft armor.
There were two men sitting in this pavilion, one was a middle-aged general with a cold-eyed look, and the other was wearing a blue shirt and looked very much like a scholar.
This middle-aged general with a cold-eyed look was Zhou Xun, who retired from the border army of Yangshan County in the early years.
The official of the Bingmasi was Gan Long, who was also a military officer. However, even if the rest of the corps mobilized the city guards or garrisons outside Changling, whether it was assisting in arrests or security guards, military officials like him should not be present.
But today is different. Ye Xiao is the leader of the Changling River and Lake gang, and Jiaodong County is probably the most powerful family in the other counties besides the Changling clan.
Ye Xiao and Jiaodong County fought each other, and today's casualties may exceed the casualties of any gang fight in Changling history.
The decay of these people in the martial arts world and clan minions is naturally not important to them, but too many people will naturally have a great impact. If you can't control it and hurt more innocent people, it will be difficult to explain.
Just looking at Ye Xiao and his subordinates who arrived first, both Zhou Xun and Gan Long felt much more relaxed.
"Ye Xiao is Ye Xiao. You know how to be sensible in your work and don't make people embarrassed, so that everyone will be happy."
Looking at the figures in the martial arts world who did nothing and seemed to be just sitting there, Gan Long even exclaimed from the bottom of his heart.
He was born to dislike Jiaodong County.
Even for Changling, Ye Xiao is also a foreigner, but behind Ye Xiao is the Nangong family.
Although the Nangong family acts ruthlessly and outstandingly, many of the rules in Changling are actually set by the Nangong family and the other families. Naturally, they will not break them themselves and will not obey the rules.
But these people in Jiaodong County are different.
For most officials in Changling who represent the interests of the family, these people are like omnipresent mice. Even if they fall to the ground and know that it is useful, they are lazy to pick up the meat. These mice will quickly pick it up. In addition, they can even find a large amount of oil and water from the dark corners where they can't see the oil and water.
He hoped that Ye Xiao could teach these people in Jiaodong County enough lessons tonight.
When the night really comes, more men from the world will arrive.
The hundreds of people in the world before were just subordinates used by Ye Xiao to attack the outposts.
At least two thousand such men from the world appeared in the short time when the sun sets and the night really falls, gathering at several major exits in the fish market.
Following these men from the world, there were many city guards wearing black armor.
There are at least thousands of these city guards, but they are not too close to the fish market.
Unless those ignorant officials are stupid enough to try to stop the fight before the fight between these gangsters begins. Any experienced official will only end up cleaning up the mess.
"Where are people from Jiaodong County, and even people from Shendujian, who don't show up?"
Such a scene is not uncommon for Gan Long and Zhou Xun, but the situation tonight is a bit special. Looking at the fish market where there is still silent and calm, but no one is entering and leaving the fish market again, Gan Long frowned deeply.
There are many industries in Jiaodong County here. Even if Ye Xiao couldn't guess that Ye Xiao was going to attack here before, since Ye Xiao's previous group of subordinates had already appeared, how could Jiaodong County not mobilize people to come here yet?
Could it be that Jiaodong County has already prepared and has hidden all its hands in it?
There is also the battle between the gangs and practitioners of the martial arts world tonight, which is the jurisdiction of the Shendu Supervisor. Tonight they are only assisting the Shendu Supervisor, but seeing that the battle is about to begin, the Shendu Supervisor is not present, which is too unreasonable.
"Go and tell the people of the Shendujian that if they don't come, we will evacuate directly. Why? What happened here? Do you want our city guard to help the Shendujian take charge?"
Zhou Xun sneered and ordered a soldier outside the pavilion to say.
The soldier turned over the horse, his hooves flew, and soon disappeared into the night.
"What! Why didn't that boy named Chen go?"
Several officials from the Shendu Supervisor drank in a restaurant not far from the fish market. There were still many fish and shrimps on the table. When Liang Qinggong, who was also among them, suddenly looked ashen.
Hearing his anger, someone outside the restaurant soon responded: "Sir, unfortunately, he encountered a suspicious practitioner on his way. When he went up to interrogate, he was sneaked into a sword in his abdomen and was sent to the clinic..."
Liang Qinggong opened his mouth, paused for a moment, and then shouted and cursed fiercely, "What's the luck of this guy!"
"Walk!"
He slapped the table with an extremely ugly expression and ran out quickly.
If the city guards really retreat, he would have taken the blame today.
