Chapter 417

These four maids were all little maids called by Mr. Zhang to serve Wang Quan and Chen Xinyuan.

Wang Quan was about to go to bed and rest. Two maids helped Wang Quan take off his shirt and also brought him a bucket of bath water, allowing Wang Quan to jump into the bathtub to take a bath.

Petals were scattered into the steaming bathtub. Two maids served Wang Quan to take a bath. In addition to helping him wipe his body, they also pinched his shoulders, massaged his back and his legs. Although the two little maids were young, the massage techniques and strength were just right, and serving Wang Quan felt indescribable comfort.

However, Wang Quan was still very determined. After taking a shower, he fell asleep in bed and did not take the opportunity to eat these two little maids. In contrast, Chen Xinyuan, who was only seventeen years old, was a little full of energy. After all, he was a young man, so it was understandable that he could not withstand such temptation. Chen Xinyuan, after taking a bath, directly led the two little maids.

With the help of two little maids, Chen Xinyuan's boy body was dedicated to the two maids who were waiting for the bed.

But Chen Xinyuan was an orphan saved by Zhao Peng after all, so there is no doubt about his loyalty to Zhao Peng. Therefore, the next morning, Chen Xinyuan went to Wang Quan to confess, saying that he shouldn't have such a thing. I'm afraid that Zhang Yuanwai used a maid to bribe him. If he did this, he felt very sorry for the Marquis.

After listening to Chen Xinyuan's confession, Wang Quan laughed: "You little brother, don't have to do this. You are not wrong. You are young and energetic. You also need a place to relieve fire. I am different from you. I am a fiancée and cannot be tempted by the outside world. You are different. You are still young and it is also necessary to experience people and things. What's more, Mr. Chen may be our partner in the future."

The letter written by Wang Quan was sent to Nanjing through Feige's letter, and told Zhao Peng about the situation in Qiongzhou.

After seeing Wang Quan's letter, Zhao Peng immediately replied to Wang Quan and the others: "You are right to the gang families that hinder our port construction. They are all poor people, so we cannot use force against them. This way, you go to their boat to see. Our Jinyiwei will solve these things with money, build a house for them, and let them move into a new home, so that we will not disturb our construction of the port."

Regarding the matter that Zhang Yuanwai wants to cooperate, Zhao Peng replied: "Please pay more attention to this person. After all, this person was originally a pirate. If he can cooperate well, he will be allowed to run Annan Coal Mine in the future, and he will also be allowed to form a private armed force to harm the natives of Nanyang."

After receiving a reply from Zhao Peng, Wang Quan took Chen Xinyuan. The two of them changed into the clothes of fish dealers and merchants. Dozens of Jinyiwei changed into the clothes of small workers. Under the guidance of local fish dealers, the group rushed to the hanhu family by the beach to find out what was going on.

When we arrived at a bay on the east side of Qiongzhou Prefecture, we saw fishing boats connected to wooden rafts and bamboo rafts on the sea surface of the bay. The wooden rafts and bamboo rafts were connected together by ropes. There were small wooden houses standing on top of the wooden rafts and bamboo rafts, which were the places where the Tanhu families lived for generations.

Seeing this, Wang Quan couldn't help frowning: The ships were connected to the wooden rafts and bamboo rafts. Isn't this a bit like Cao Cao who had suffered a series of plans back then? There were so many wooden buildings on the sea that were connected together. Once a fire broke out, if the fire could not be put out in time, a large area would be killed or injured.

But it is no wonder that the sacred families firmly oppose the construction of a dock in the bay. Among them is the homes where their ancestors lived for generations.

If the wharf port is built, the treacherous families will have to move from here to the sea outside. Without the shelter of the bay, once a typhoon comes, none of these treacherous people will escape.

"Shopkeeper Liu is here." Walking on a wooden trestle paved on the sea, an old fisherman greeted Liu Shuiqiu, a fishmonger who led Wang Quan and the others.

"Yes, we're here to collect the fish." Liu Shuiqiu replied.

"Why have the old man never seen those two shopkeepers?" asked the old fisherman.

Liu Shuiniu introduced: "They are new shopkeepers. My shop is ready to sell. I will not do this business in the future. In the future, they will take over us and collect fish from you."

Of course, these words are deceived by those gangsters. Liu Shuiniu's family has done fishmongers for generations. Once they are not a fishmonger, their family can only drink the northwest wind. As for Wang Quan and Chen Xinyuan are new fishmongers, they are completely concealed in order not to expose their identity as the Jinyiwei.

When Liu Shuiniu appears in front of the gangsters again, it can be said that the price has not been negotiated, so he had to return to his old career.

Wang Quan and Chen Xinyuan walked up a wooden raft, passed through the wooden raft, and came to another wooden raft. The wooden raft was a very large raft, with wooden rafts on all sides, but the middle was hollowed out. Fresh fish and various seafood were jumping in the sea water in the middle. Wang Quan asked: "This fish is just placed in the sea like this, won't it run away?"

A fisherman replied: "There is a net below. The live fish we caught are kept here to ensure that the fish and seafoods will not die. Otherwise, it will be so hot here, and there will be only summer in the year. If the fish and shrimp die, they will soon smell."

A simple wooden house was erected on the wooden raft. The chanting family of five lived in it, and the wooden house was crowded.

Wang Quan and the gangsters talked to the gangster: "Your family lives in such a crowded place, why don't you go to the shore to build a small shed more comfortable than to live here. It's so crowded here. The typhoon is coming. Although it's in a safe haven, if the storm is too heavy, your raft will accidentally overturn the sea. It's safe to move it to the shore."

"It's just like it's on the shore?" The gentry sneered, "It's light, but there is no place for us gentry to stay on the shore? The land on the shore is all of the gentry. If we move to the shore, the gentry will make things difficult for us. The Han and Yi people on the shore look down on us and have no place to stand on the shore."

Not only the Yi people discriminate against the Dan people, but even the Han people discriminate against the Dan people. When locals see Dan people, they call them Dan thieves, Dan people, etc. When they see women, they call them Dan Po and Dan chicken.

Due to discrimination, the gangsters were unable to live on the shore at all, and could only be on the boat for generations.

Wang Quan said in his heart: Look at this, even if our Jinyiwei helped them acquire land, built a house for them, and they went ashore, they would still be discriminated against. This is not the fundamental solution to the problem.

It is not a matter of one day or two to eliminate the discrimination of local people against the ill people, but it takes several years or even decades to change the concept. However, it is not enough to wait for the construction of the port terminal.

Wang Quan soon thought of a solution: on the shore of the bay, a corner was drawn for the treasury to the treasury, and then built the residential area for the treasury there. In order to avoid discrimination from the treasury after the treasury came ashore, the narrowest part of the treasury connecting the treasury to the land was dug open, so that the treasury became a small island, separated from the land, and then a bridge was built.

Although doing this is a waste of money, there is no way to do it. There is no uninhabited island near Qiongzhou, otherwise the gangsters would be placed directly on the island.

"Wang Qianhu's move is a bit too expensive. In my opinion, it's better to just place them in our port area." Chen Xinyuan made another suggestion.
