Lingwu City relies on the Wujiang River system, with convenient transportation and convenient connections, and is a key hub in the north.

Although it is just a Pier No. 9 in Xigang, there are still about twenty large and small ships shut down, and the pier is also built very broadly. These ships are mainly passenger ships, so they are crowded with people and flowing endlessly.

Relying on the wharf, a small restaurant near the river was formed nearby. It has no stop all year round. Most of them operate restaurants, inns, wine shops, pharmacies, clothing shops, silk shops, satin shops, etc., which rely on food, clothing, housing and transportation to make wealth. Naturally, the entry of the rivers and lakes is inevitable.

As mentioned earlier, the Meng family also has some industries in Lingwu City, including a small gang with a size of 400 people. The leader of the gang is a slave from the Meng family named Meng Xiang. He has mediocre ability and martial arts skills are only acquired. However, the victory lies in loyalty and stability. It is difficult to expand its power, but it can also rely on the signature of Nan'anbo Mansion to maintain the status quo.

Previously, Meng Xiang's small gang relied on this No. 9 Pier. In addition to regularly collecting protection fees, he also operated gray work such as gambling halls and brothels. He also distributed part of the manpower to work hard to load and unload goods and maintain order in the pier, which was also considered to be everywhere.

When Meng Zhao took a large number of people off the ship, about one-third of the dock had been cleared in advance. On the ground made of trident-shaped, cement-shaped irrigation, there were men wearing black clothes, green scarf wrapped in their heads, and short sticks on their waists, holding their chests and undresses, and waiting solemnly.

The person who was disembarking next to him was secretly surprised when he saw this scene. He asked curiously,

"Which family has arrived? In such a big situation, just clear half of the dock, the loss will be quite large."

The pier is equivalent to a treasure pot. Every moment, a boat comes and goes. This is all white money. Some people clear the store in advance, and the price they pay will not be small. In fact, what they get is just face.

There was a knowledgeable and knowledgeable person next to him. When he saw a conspicuous red flag on the roof of the giant ship, he shouted in a burst of shouts with the gust of wind.

"It seems that it is from Nan'anbo Mansion in Jizhou. The red flag is the symbol of the Meng family. According to legend, the red flag order of the Meng family is a great domineering skill in China. With such a formation, it should be the direct troops coming."

The Meng family is most famous in Lingwu City, which is not actually a small gang, nor a coveted industry such as shops, manors, and minerals, but a fleet of twelve large keel-bone Limu ships that roam the river.

Among them, the three passenger ships, and the remaining nine are all merchant ships, and the carrying capacity is also on the second line. What is even more enviable is that the ships are equipped with special military-made magic crossbows, hidden on the hull. They are clever and magical. They can be used to attack water bandits and ships, and can also hunt down evil objects in the river. They are both military and commercial and are trusted by merchants.

This is the truly jealous precious wealth. It is equivalent to holding a hen that lays a golden egg or the one who is a thorn in the elder. It is also quite famous in Lingwu City and has cooperated with many forces.

When it comes to the people of the Meng family in Nan'an, Jizhou, many people immediately know which force it is. After all, the Meng family is not an unknown person in the north, especially in Jizhou, which is a top wealthy family.

Although I feel that the Meng family is only in the third-rate level in Lingwu City and has made some big fuss, I don’t think it’s so complicated and doing some face-saving projects. What’s wrong with it?

After all, many well-known people who come from court and wealthy families are best for show off, they can be without their inner ranks, but they cannot be denied face.

Especially when Meng Zhao showed up, the business travelers next to him were even more talking, thinking that this kid was so young, wasn’t it the uncle’s son? He also guessed Meng Zhao’s identity.

Meng Zhao didn't know that when he just came to Lingwu City, many people thought that the children of aristocratic families who were good-looking and re-spoken, they calmed down and smiled and took the lead in arriving with a group of innate and close-knit people. Later, Lu Le and Cao Zhan organized personnel to go arriving in an orderly manner, and at the same time sorted out the huge supplies and household items brought on the trip.

This is a meticulous job, and you can't be careless at all.

He saw a group of people coming up to salute him. There were only a few acquaintances, and the leaders were Hanxue Daobai Shicheng under his command, and the fourth and fifth couples of the Seven Monsters.

Second only to them are three middle-aged people with different appearances. Through the information they learned in advance, Meng Zhao knew who they were all.

The middle-aged man, wearing a blue short shirt, tight legs, strong body, and an elderly pair of peach-blossom eyes, is the leader of the Daqi Gang, and Meng Xiang, who is also a slave from the Meng family, is 37 years old this year, and is of the same generation as Liu Qiankun. However, in terms of cultivation, ability, and achievement, the two are the difference between heaven and earth.

The rich man wearing a round hat and a deep suit, and looks slightly round, is the person in charge of the Meng family who stayed in the city in charge of shops, manors, mines and other industries, named Wang Shi'an.

He was similar to Meng Xiang, but he was well maintained and had a tender skin. He was a distant relative of the Meng family. His family was dilapidated in his early years and was taken in by the Meng family. Because he was quite capable and good at managing, he got him here to do a businessman.

This person is not as loyal as Meng Xiang, and is accustomed to being cheating and cheating. Naturally, he is greedy for many gold and silver. Meng Jizu and Meng Hongdao know this very well, but there is no fish when the water is clear. Over the years, the industries under Wang Shi'an have been thriving and have gained a lot, so he has agreed to some of his actions.

Meng Zhao also did not intend to pursue this point. Of course, he would not let this person continue to lie on his property and drink blood. At most, he would give him a free time and provide him with a free agent, so he would not say that he would eliminate dissidents as soon as he came to power.

The last person was the head of the Meng family fleet. Han Peng, who was average in shape, had a innocent appearance, and dark skin. When he threw it into the crowd, he was definitely the rough and rough boatmen who worked hard.

However, a person cannot behave like a person, but he is very capable.

Han Peng can be said to have been discovered and cultivated by Meng Hongdao. He is quite talented. Now he is a congenital warrior. He is proficient in navigation. He sails on a boat and is like walking on a flat ground. There are no accidents for many years.

The reason why the Meng family fleet was able to take root in the Wujiang River system, traversing north and south, connecting east and west is that this person has made great contributions.

Therefore, this person is no better than Wang Shi'an. Even if Meng Zhao comes to Lingwu City, he still has to rely on it and of course he has to find ways to win his heart.

What Meng Zhao liked was not his force, but his ability in water navigation.

When they saw Meng Zhao, these people had different thoughts, but they all showed great respect.

Long before Meng Zhao came, they had already received a message from Meng Mansion and knew that everything about Lingwu City had been under Meng Zhao's command. They were naturally no exception. They hoped that this man would be an easy-to-serve.

When both sides came closer, Meng Zhao first greeted the three people in Lingwu City one by one, and seemed to be very particular.

Then, I focused on the people in Baishicheng.

Seeing that their faces were heavy and without any joy, they also made a sudden sudden heart and asked,

"Where is Han Pu? Why didn't he come to greet him?"
