Chapter 146 Small Town(1/2)
There are nearly 100 large and small lakes in Pingzhou, the most famous of which is Danci Lake. Although the area is far less than Zhuangyu Lake in Chuanming County, Ganzhou, it is still more beautiful than it is.
Danci Lake is located more than ten miles north of Pingzhou City. It has a canal that runs through the east and west, and various ships travel endlessly.
There is a town by the lake, and its name is Danci Town. There are various brothels, casinos, restaurants, martial arts halls, shops, and houses in the town. It is more prosperous and lively than in the city, and it is a rare place for entertainment and leisure.
This town is directly under the jurisdiction of Pingzhou City. It has a lot of taxes every year and the government is willing to invest in it. All kinds of public facilities are top-notch, and there are also special guards responsible for maintaining order.
A few years ago, the government decided to plan several islands in the lake and two forests near the lake shore. Without introducing specific policies, it made a big profit by buying land, allowing the buyer to make trouble on his own.
As a result, the islands in the lake were turned into famous tourist places, the mountains and forests were turned into summer resorts, and the houses were built incredibly beautiful.
Danci Town is getting bigger and bigger.
It is the hot season now, and people in Pingzhou City often go to Danci Town. The distance is not far. The official road is stable and spacious, and it is very convenient to go back and forth.
Black markets like to open here, usually on islands or summer resorts.
Of course, sellers will not call themselves black markets, but art exchange meetings or collection exchange meetings.
Every item can be expressed in the source, such as being passed down from home, being bought from the countryside, or being bought from friends. These statements are to deal with the government.
Of course, it is okay for the government to be serious, but it is not as much as it is. It will turn a blind eye to such communication, as long as it does not cause any major trouble.
In the evening, Du Yong and others rode out of the city and headed straight for the northern suburbs.
After discussion at the inn, I decided to first find out the black market to get familiar with it. Of course, it would be best if I could find out the news about Weishan.
This time when I came to Pingzhou, in addition to the ten members of the first team of the Fire Group, there were nearly ten private guards. So many people were too conspicuous, so I had to act in groups.
When they were grouped, Pei Song didn't ask Mo Xing and Hu Hefeng, and directly pulled Du Yong and Zhao Dezhu.
Of course, Mo Xing and Hu Hefeng did not dare to have any objections to Pei Song, so they each brought their own small circles.
This is good to divide three groups, and it is more harmonious.
Du Yong's group set out last.
"God of Gambling, you said before that the young people in Pingzhou wore sexy bags, aren't you the same now?"
Pei Song rode on the horse and looked at Zhao Deju who had changed into a brand new samurai suit, and couldn't help but complain.
Zhao Dezhu laughed and said, "I want to pretend to be from Pingzhou, confusing people... Lao Du, do you think I look like a talented man in Pingzhou?"
"Um?"
Du Yong raised his head and looked at Zhao Dezhu, a little confused.
"What are you thinking, absent-minded?"
Zhao Dezhu was a little strange. Du Yong was very active when he was on the road. He either told jokes or commented on the scenery on the road. Now he looked like he had changed his personality.
Pei Song asked with concern: "Do you feel very tired? You have been on the road for so many days and have encountered several waves of killers on the road. You should have had a good rest."
Du Yong shook his head and grinned, "Thank you, Mr. Song, care, it's not fatigue. I'm thinking about the group of people in Weishan."
Actually, he was thinking about the task.
[Trigger the mission, defeat the Weishan gang, sort out its evil deeds, and hand them over to the government to inform the world!]
This task seems a bit difficult.
Wei Shan is in his forties, has a burly figure, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and has scars on his face. He climbs the fifth level of climbing the tower. He often operates in the black market in Pingzhou, and has runs children's business. He has a few helpers who climb the tower.
Just a little information, I don’t know if it’s accurate or not.
Zhao Dezhu said carelessly: "What do you have to think about? Let's talk about it after going to the black market."
Du Yong nodded slightly and asked, "What did you ask me just now?"
Zhao Dezhuo put on a pose and asked again: "Do you think I look like a talented man in Pingzhou?"
Du Yong laughed: "You look quite like you deserve a beating."
Zhao Dezhu rolled his eyes, and Pei Song smiled.
"Does go, do whatever you want, don't block the way!"
A very arrogant voice suddenly came from behind.
Du Yong looked back.
A very luxurious carriage galloped behind. The people who drove the car were arrogant. They waved their whip to drive the horse and shouted loudly. The carriages and pedestrians on the road did not dare to complain, and they avoided them for fear of being out of reach.
Yang Jin and the three guards frowned. After all, there was nothing to do and avoided the right side of the road.
This time when he came to Pingzhou, Zhao Dezhu only brought one guard, and Pei Song was the same, but they were all very steady.
Seeing that the carriage was about to rush over, Du Yong came to his senses and subconsciously rode his horse to avoid it.
Although Zhao Dezhu and Pei Song are not good at dealing with each other, they think that this is of great importance and are not troublesome.
After avoiding it, Zhao Dezhu looked at the dust brought by the carriage and cursed: "Who is this? He is so arrogant. If it weren't for something, I'll have to fight him."
Du Yong chuckled and said, "The carriage should be a young man from a wealthy family. It's understandable that he is arrogant. Don't you often rush around when you are in the capital? Do you care about the people on the road?"
Zhao Dezhu snorted coldly: "Can he compete with me? I am at least on the job now."
Du Yong smiled and complained casually: "You are only allowed to set fires by the state officials, and you are not allowed to light the lights!"
"What does it mean?"
Zhao Dezhu and Bae Song were both curious.
Du Yong had no choice but to tell roughly the allusion.
After listening to it, Pei Song was very interesting: "This story is great, Lao Du, where did you hear it?"
Du Yong said lightly: "I heard it on the street, the story made up by the old man. The officials did something wrong, and the people dare not scold them in person, but they always talked about it in private."
Pei Song smiled bitterly a few times, but didn't say anything, and seemed to feel a little emotional.
Zhao Dezhu smiled and said, "I can be a state official, but that person just now is not a commoner. I am equally hateful to him, haha!"
Du Yong gave a thumbs up: "Although you are good at making a fortune, you still have some advantages... Since he is so hateful, should you chase him and beat him?"
Zhao Dezhu was eager to try: "Is that okay? Isn't we okay?"
Du Yong shrugged: "Aren't we pretending to be a playboy from other places now? It's unreasonable to not do anything."
Pei Song rubbed his palms: "I think it's pretty good, that kid needs a beat."
Speed up.
The carriage in front was faster, and it lost its trace after turning a corner.
Du Yong and others did not force it and did not continue to accelerate.
I soon entered Danci Town, and my first feeling was lively.
It was already night, but the streets were brightly lit, like daylight.
People come and go, but there is no congestion, because the road is very spacious, luxurious inns can be seen everywhere, and there are large parking lots next to the inn.
There are many small car stalls on the street, mainly selling various snacks and rice wine, which are very popular.
The brothels are built more grand than those in the capital. The girls are standing on the balcony, laughing in their mouths, waving handkerchiefs to attract tourists from the world.
Not to mention the restaurant, the welcome guest was very busy, so the old man invited him in and kept calling.
The gambling hall is also very interesting, with all kinds of cursing, roaring, and crazy laughter.
Everyone turned over and dismounted.
Yang Jin and several guards led the horse to settle down.
Du Yong and the other two were walking around casually.
"Oh my goodness!"
Zhao Dezhu only felt that his eyes were not enough and said to himself: "Is this place really just a small town?"
Du Yong said curiously: "You haven't been here?"
Zhao Dezhu shook his head: "Duan Zixiao and the others have been here, and Mr. Song and I have been in the city."
Pei Song sighed: "This place is indeed prosperous, no wonder the Pingzhou government attaches so much importance to it."
After walking for a while, I arrived near the dock.
Du Yong walked over and stood on a high ground, looking at the brightly lit island in Danci Lake: "It is said that the black market is open on the island, so we have to take a boat to go there!"
Zhao Dezhu learned to look into Du Yong's distance and found that the island was a bit far away. He suggested: "Don't hurry to take a boat, let's go to the so-called summer resort first."
Speaking of this, he suddenly patted his head: "No, aren't we going to hit someone?"
Du Yong spread his hands: "I lost my follower, how can I fight?"
At this time, Yang Jin and others had already caught up.
Pei Song's guard raised his hand to report: "Several young men, when I settled the horse, I saw the carriage in the parking lot next to the inn."
Zhao Dezhu was overjoyed: "You can see so many carriages. Is it so good to have a good eye, are you sure you are reading it wrong?"
Pei Song's guard said with certainty: "I'm sure you read it right!"
