Chapter 6 Volume A, Qi Lu Qing, is like falling into an ice cellar (Shouting for votes!)

 Under normal circumstances, even if these people swarmed up, Feng You would not be a problem.

At the border fortress, in the wind and rain, such a confrontation could not be considered a fight. It was easy to deal with these skinned scoundrels.

 But the problem is that the situation is getting more and more chaotic now. It is obvious that the previous idea that the people were in chaos and forcing the tax supervisor to make concessions was somewhat wrong.

There were already bandits outside the city, and the situation inside the city was even more chaotic. More importantly, the guards could not be seen, which was very strange.

If someone drags him here and is surrounded by bandits, Feng You himself can say no, but Brother Keng will be in trouble.

Before Feng You could think about it, the two thugs at the front rushed over, one holding a whistle stick as tall as one person, and the other holding a bamboo pole with an arm one foot thick.

Feng You knew that this was not the time to be merciful, so he jumped down from the shaft of the carriage, turned straight forward, and had already escaped the menacing whistle blow to the head, and sharply raised the narrow sword at his waist.

The blade of the knife passed by, and the blood on his neck suddenly splashed more than a foot high, spraying all over the white wall next to it, which was shocking.

Before the bamboo pole could sweep forward, Feng You stepped forward, strangled the man's head with his left arm, and threw it away.

With a loud bang, his big head hit the white wall, and he fell to the ground without making a single sound.

The four or five people following the two men were shocked. They immediately stopped and yelled, waving the wooden sticks and bamboo poles in their hands. The first person actually had a wooden spear with an iron spearhead, and shouted in a fierce voice: "Wuna." Man, if you don’t put down the knife quickly, I’ll leave your body intact!”

“Hmph, come up if you are not afraid of death. When I kill the Tatars in Datong Mansion, you are probably still nursing in your mother’s arms, right?”

Feng You swung the knife straight in without hesitation. The murderous intention revealed by the cold blade almost made the opponent's body almost stiff, and he subconsciously dropped the bamboo spear and turned around to run away.

The group of people dispersed in a hurry, and Feng You also knew that it was not suitable to stay here for a long time. Although this gang of rogues was not worth mentioning, the gangsters coming from outside the city were not simple.

With just a brief glance, Feng You knew that although more than a thousand people were just a mob, numbers were king, and dogs were stronger. Moreover, he could also see that the gang was powerful, and the first few might have some backgrounds. If so, Once we enter the city, I'm afraid there will be big trouble.

But so far, no guards have been seen, and the city is in chaos. The various merchant gangs should have some guard forces, but surprisingly, they have not seen many. At most, there are a few people standing in front of the shop doors. The guardian of swords and guns.

The question is, when facing the obviously organized gang of bandits outside the city, what did this piecemeal defense force do?

"Quickly, take Hengjie and go around the Chaishi Market, pass through the Cotton Market, and go to Binyang Gate." Feng You didn't have time to think too much. Once the bandits outside the city entered the city, it would be difficult to find a chance to escape. .

 “Can’t walk!”

Both Feng Ziying and Feng You were startled. They didn't know when a dark and thin boy had emerged from the wall next to him. He wore an armless short coat that was greasy and mixed with plaster. The original color could no longer be seen, and half of his legs were visible. The trouser legs that had been torn to pieces seemed to have just escaped from somewhere.

The thin black boy kicked the rogue who was already half-dead and unconscious after being thrown against the wall by Feng You. Then he groped for a while in his arms and found a silver ingot, and then he easily picked up a piece of silver next to him. The wall brick hit the opponent's head so hard that his brains were knocked out and he couldn't live.

Feng You didn't care. There were many life-and-death fights in the border village. He was used to things ten times crueler and crueler than this. He was just a little surprised that this little beggar was so fierce and vicious. But when had Feng Ziying seen such **** things? scene?

Feng You's previous knife had already made his whole body go cold. Now, in front of him, a little beggar who seemed to be one or two years younger than himself actually dared to kill someone with vicious hands. He couldn't help but suddenly realize what he saw today. All possibilities are the most real side of this world, and the leisurely feeling I felt when I stayed in Feng's house to recuperate a few days ago was just an illusion.

“Little beggar, why can’t you walk?” Feng You became more and more impatient.

 The growing sense of crisis made him eager to leave this dangerous place.

Although the gang of thugs retreated, they were not far away. Perhaps with a little support, they would come around again. It would not be difficult for them to escape by themselves, but it would be difficult for Brother Keng and Na Ruixiang.

"I'm not a beggar! The Cotton Market area has been taken over by that gang of ruthless kiln workers. You guys are just looking for death."

While the dark and thin young man stuffed the silver into his arms, he took the baggage that the ruffian had snatched from the musician's arms in his hand. He seemed to be hesitant, which made Feng You and Feng Ziying very strange.

A piece of silver is worth as much as a jade, and there are some silks and satins in this bag that are far more valuable than the mere two taels of silver. Why does this guy seem to want it?

It’s just that the two of them are not in the mood to ask now. They are just concerned about what this guy said. If they can’t go to the Chai Market to the Cotton Market on the cross street, how can they take a detour up Yongqing Street? Only by going up Yongqing Street can they find a clue to the Yongqing Gate. city ​​opportunity.

“Then do you know how to get to Yongqing Gate?” Feng You asked while looking around nervously.

At this time, there were still fires all over the city, and all the shops on the streets were closed. Groups of thugs and groups of beggars and refugees began to get together, shouting and smashing shops and stores, one by one. With red eyes, he began to indulge like a madman.

"Run along the river from here and take Gulou Street. Over there are the various families of the Liang Gang. No one in the city dares to mess with the Shanshan Liang Gang. They are very powerful. Maybe we can find someone there. Safety."

The Shanshan Grain Gang is the most powerful Shanxi merchant in Linqing Prefecture who deals in grain. Even Feng You and Feng Ziying, who are unfamiliar with the situation in Linqing, know that the two major business gangs in Linqing Prefecture are huge. .

 Taizu of this dynasty was a merchant, so his attitude towards merchants after the establishment of the dynasty was different from that in the previous Ming Dynasty.

Although the gentry's discriminatory attitude towards merchants remained the same, the imperial laws had been relaxed a lot, and many local gentry took this opportunity to participate in business and make huge profits.

  Shanxi merchants were mainly merchants from southern Shanxi and based in Shanshan Guild Hall, and Hui merchants were mainly merchants from Huizhou in southern Zhili and based at Huizhou Guild Hall.

These two business gangs basically controlled the main commercial trade in Linqing Prefecture City. Even the local business gangs in Linqing and the Dongting Business Gang and Zhejiang Shaoxing Business Gang among the merchants from South Zhili could not compete with these two business gangs.

Shanxi merchants mainly engaged in salt, grain, silk, wood, medicinal materials, coal, ironware, and banks, while Huizhou merchants mainly engaged in cotton cloth, tea, fruits, salt, southern goods, pawns, and medicinal materials, especially the cotton cloth industry and Huizhou merchants have a monopoly on tea sales.

“You mean these gangsters don’t dare to provoke people from the Shanshan Liang Gang?”

Although Feng You had been to Linqing several times, he was always delivering letters and people for his master, and he came and went quickly. He didn't have much time to stay in Linqing. At most, he just rested in the city for one night, and sometimes stayed with his companions. I went out to relax and was not familiar with the situation in Linqing City.

 But he also heard that Linqing grain trafficking was mainly controlled by Shanshan merchants, and the Shanshan Grain Gang was very powerful.

"It's hard to say, but almost every house of the Liang Gang has guards, everyone has a sword and a gun, and some of the masters have firecrackers!" The black and thin boy obviously knows the situation in Linqing City well, "If I were them, why bother? Go fight those people, there are a lot of places to grab on the streets of Zhongzhou."

"Okay, then let's go to Gulou Street, you lead the way!" Feng You looked a little reluctant as the dark and skinny boy seemed a little reluctant, and said sternly: "If you can take us to Yongqing Street, your money will be indispensable!"

"I don't care about your money. If you help me kill my enemy, I am willing to help you!" The thin black boy hesitated for a moment before saying.

"But do you want to enter the inner city through Yongqing Gate? I advise you to give up this idea as soon as possible. The guards left the city two days ago, and there are not many soldiers left in the inner city. They will definitely not be able to do so at this time. Open the door and no one can go in! Earlier I saw Mr. Xi wanted to enter the city through Guangji Gate. In the past, the military commander in the city would have welcomed him in, but today he refused to open the door..."

 The words of the dark and skinny boy made Feng You and Feng Ziying feel as if they had fallen into an ice cellar.
