In the blink of an eye, two days have passed, and it has been ten days since the Shuaifu army entered Guangzhou City. At this moment, the city has gradually returned to its former bustle. After the maritime ban was lifted, ships full of cargo continued to enter or leave, and all ports and markets were restored.

Trading. Most merchants in the city feel that business is much better than in previous years. The unscrupulous giants who monopolized the market in the past were almost wiped out, killed and exiled, making room for them. They no longer have to

By relying on them, you can get a share of the prosperous overseas trade.

In addition, everyone found that the Shuaifu Army is different from the armies of other imperial courts. Not only is the military discipline strict and no violations are committed, but the business is also very fair, and they never buy or sell by force. In addition, the strong purchasing power of the Shuaifu Army also gives them the opportunity to make money.

Opportunity is like an insatiable villain. There are as many military supplies as cloth, medicinal materials, copper, iron, leather, saltpetre, war horses, etc., so that some items are out of stock or the prices soar.

What is surprising is that the price of grain is relatively stable. The Shuaifu Army only purchased about 10% of the grain on the market. This did not cause much fluctuation in the market with huge stock, and the people's lives were basically not affected.

.What made them excited was that the Shuai Mansion began to auction the houses and shops that had been inspected. These were good locations with high prices. But at first, everyone was a little worried, worried that the Shuai Mansion was trying to make money and was hesitant to take action. Unexpectedly, there were

Being daring, several foreign businessmen took pictures of some of the best shops on the pier, and all transactions were successfully completed, so everyone couldn't sit still.

The series of actions taken by the Shuai Mansion are like injecting a shot in the arm into the increasingly depressed city of Guangzhou. There are frequent transactions in the market, and there has been a rare prosperity in the past ten years. However, some people cannot participate in it and are still worried about it.

Speculating about my own fate, worrying about whether I can see the sun tomorrow...

The prisoners captured by the Shuaifu army were imprisoned on two sandbars facing each other outside the city. One was used to detain the captured soldiers, and the other was used to detain the captured rebellious and collaborators. The prison on the sandbar was surrounded by

Behind the fence, there is a river less than fifty meters outside. The prison inside is just a straw shed built with local materials. If there were not many guard posts and patrolling soldiers, it would be more like a sheep pen.

The officers and soldiers captured in the past few days have been sent away one after another. On the small island here, a group was killed, a group was exiled, and the day before yesterday, another group was released after their families paid a "donation". Now it is crowded.

There were less than two or three hundred people left on the small island, which seemed much spacious. As long as they did not leave the fence, the soldiers did not interfere and agreed that they could move freely.

"Boss Hu, when do you think we can leave?" It was almost noon, and the weather was gradually getting hotter. More than a dozen prisoners were sitting scattered under a big tree to enjoy the cool air. A middle-aged man wearing a long coat and worker uniform could be seen.

After being locked up for many days, his clothes were stained and smelled sour. He spit out the grass roots in his mouth and asked the guy lying half on the grass next to him.

"Lie down on the ground tiger, stop screaming nonsense, you are seeking death!" The man named Hu looked around nervously and cursed in a low voice with a ferocious expression on his face.

"Okay, okay, Shopkeeper Hu, Brother Hu, kill those who deserve to be killed and release those who deserve to be released. What do you mean by keeping the rest of us? It's not because we want more money, right?"

The guy lying on the ground tiger said with a nonchalant smile.

"Don't think that just because you're wearing a long gown, you're really not a member. No one else knows what you are, not even the Sa family. They don't lock us up for money. The Shuai Mansion only embezzled the money, and the Sun family's income

It’s more than tens of millions of dollars, how can it look after a small family like us!” said the man named Hu, curling his lips.

Hu Sheng was originally a bandit who turned into a bandit. A few years ago, he made a fortune and settled in Guangzhou. He bought a village and opened a wine shop and became a businessman. And the lying tiger is also a good man. His surname is Qin Mingbao. He is young.

At that time, he fought bravely and lost his life and was exiled. Later, when the Mongols went south, the general rebelled and surrendered. He also killed his own commander, took a group of people hostage, robbed a ship, and fled to the sea. He lived by extorting passing merchant ships. In a few years, he also made a lot of money.

After clearing his identity, he became a rich man and seemed to have left the world behind. But everyone in the world knew that he had not lost contact with his old brothers.

"Is it possible that someone has leaked our secrets and that the government knows what we have done? Fang Sheng from the east of the city was taken away last night and has not come back now. It is impossible..." Qin Bao touched his forehead and said

There was once a tattoo there, but although it had been washed away with secret medicine, he would still think of the past when he felt guilty.

"No. The troops from the Shuaifu who entered the city were already guarding Wang Wei. They were guest troops who would not stay for long, and the ones they killed were all traitors and evildoers. There was no time to track down us small fish and shrimps. I just thought that

We still have some oil and water that we want to slowly boil over, but as long as we grit our teeth, they will have no choice but to let him go sooner or later!" Hu Sheng said with a sneer.

"This is the best, but I always feel uneasy. It doesn't seem that simple. Otherwise, why would a loser like the Lin family stay here?" Qin Bao looked at a young man nesting in the grass not far away.

People said, "This coward wants to join the Mongols, and everyone will ask for it. He only has a shell left at home, and he has no money. And his courage is only to fight and tease a good girl, but he can't do anything big."

I peed my pants before I even came to court."

"Damn, yes!" Hu Sheng became alert after thinking about it, "Young man from the Lin family, stop crying. Come over here and I'll ask you something!"

"What's the matter, two brothers?" The man got up, patted the grass blades on his body, pulled up his clothes and said with a grimace.

"Damn it, wipe the cat urine off your face. The Sa family won't look at a coward like you!" Hu Sheng scolded.

"Don't scare him. Mr. Lin went to court last night. Where are the two people who went with you?" Qin Bao said, patting a stone beside him in a friendly manner and asking him to sit over.

"Thank you, Brother Qin!" Mr. Lin wiped the snot and tears on his face with his sleeves, sat down and said as if he was flattered. He knew that these two people were the ones who had the final say in their respective territories.

"Come on, tell me where there is so much nonsense!" Hu Sheng urged with a disgusted glance.

"It was really scary last night. I think our two brothers from the north of the city, Mr. Meng, must have known that he was a man who would make the north wall tremble when he stomped on it, but he was beaten up and killed on the spot!" Mr. Lin said with lingering fear.

"Meng Batian was beaten to death, why?" After hearing this, Hu Sheng turned over and sat up, grabbed Mr. Lin's lapel and shouted.

"It was so far away that I couldn't hear clearly... It seemed that he was being asked to agree to something. When he refused, the man became angry and ordered to kill him with a cane on the spot. Mr. Meng was beaten to death." Mr. Lin stammered.
