Chapter 1078 1073 [End of the road](2/2)

In the north of Fuzhou City, there is Beishen Town.

In parallel time and space, when Zhao Li defended Chuzhou, Jin soldiers camped in Beishen Town.

The commerce of this town is extremely developed, and the tax revenue of a small town is equivalent to that of several counties in remote areas.

The headquarters of the Shahe Society has long been moved to the town.

Jiang Kuan, the second leader of the association, also built mansions outside the town and used various illegal means to annex hundreds of acres of land in two years.

Some of the land was even sold to him on his own initiative, and the original landowners were frightened.

What is Jiang Kuan doing now?

He is sending people to inquire and confirm the information about the unruly people who are leading the trouble. When the matter calms down, he will carry out crazy retaliation. He will never allow anyone in Chuzhou to be disobedient.

What, the censor showed up?

When the Qin Hui gang members were being investigated, a censor came to Chuzhou. Mr. Li Ge was protecting him, so the censor was nothing!

Two hours ago, Li Xiaojian sent someone to tell Jiang Kuan to stay out of the limelight and that all members of the Shahe Club were not allowed to cause trouble.

Jiang Kuan also knew that this was an extraordinary period, so he strictly ordered the people to abide by the law.

But he himself did not choose to run away. He thought it was not necessary and running away would make him feel guilty.

"Mr. Sir, it's not good, the provincial capital is mobilizing troops!" the housekeeper panicked and ran to the inner courtyard shouting.

Jiang Kuan stood up quickly: "But are you sending troops to catch the unruly people?"

"I don't know, I'm afraid... I'm afraid..." The housekeeper didn't dare to say the rest.

Jiang Kuan finally panicked, remembered Li Xiaojian's warning, and hurried to the entrance of his cellar.

There is no gold, silver, or copper coins.

Nowadays, people who fish for odd things, both officials and citizens, like the Ming Dynasty treasure banknotes. Wrap them in layers of oil paper and put some charcoal around them. The Ming Dynasty treasure banknotes can be well preserved and can be easily taken away if something happens.

The yellow-faced woman at home is no longer wanted. She is the sister of the former leader. She has always suspected that he poisoned his brother, and the couple was very unhappy.

Moreover, that yellow-faced woman can only give birth to daughters, not even a single one.

Jiang Kuan had more than ten concubines, half of whom were snatched.

It was not an outright robbery, but mainly intimidation, forcing the other party to marry his daughter as a concubine.

He put the Ming Dynasty treasure money into a bag, took two concubines who had given birth to sons, and took a concubine who had not given birth to a son but was very favored. He didn't want the rest, not even his daughter, and ran away with only his son.

The steward has prepared the boat and brought his wife and children.

They asked the boatman to paddle quickly, and they sailed far away in a blink of an eye.

But soon, the boat slowed down.

The housekeeper exclaimed in a low voice: "Mokou Chaoguan seems to have been closed. There are a lot of merchant ships there!"

"Hurry to the shore!"

Jiang Kuan urged anxiously.

Before the boat could stop, he jumped ashore and urged his three concubines to move faster.

Two of the concubines were holding their sons, both of whom were born this year.

When the former leader was still alive, the yellow-faced woman in the family was very arrogant. She couldn't give birth to a son, and she was not allowed to have sex or take concubines.

After poisoning his uncle to death, Jiang Kuan became the leader himself, and immediately let himself go, taking more than ten concubines in two years.

"Hurry up, don't wait any longer!" Jiang Kuan became increasingly anxious.

Two concubines holding a baby, how can they dare to get off the boat unless it stops safely?

Just when they were being careful, the most favored concubine, who had not yet given birth to her child, suddenly picked up a bamboo pen and pushed it hard on the shore.

The boat that had already docked took another step back.

One concubine fell into the water while holding a baby, and the other almost fell down while holding a baby.

Before anyone could react, the "troublesome" concubine jumped into the river and swam for several meters before resurfacing.

"Thief woman!"

Jiang Kuan was furious and shouted to the boatman: "Save your mistress and husband quickly!"

Those boatmen were also members of the Shahe Gang. They looked at the blocked banknotes in the north and then at the leader who was eager to escape, but they were stunned and did not immediately obey the order.

Jiang Kuan shouted: "You also have a share in killing people and stealing goods. Do you still want to arrest me and take me to the government to collect the reward?"

The boatmen really wanted to make atonement for their sins, but after being reminded by Jiang Kuanyi, they all gave up the idea.

However, no one went to save the concubine and the baby who fell into the water. They jumped into the river and swam to the other side.

As the leader of the guild, the target is too big. It is easy to get caught if you escape with him!

The boatmen are certainly not stupid.

Seeing this, Jiang Kuan did not go down to the river to fish for his son. Instead, he abandoned the housekeeper's family, his concubine and his son, and fled with the Ming Dynasty treasure money in his bag.

The housekeeper was angry and anxious. Like the boatmen, he was not a good person, and he had even killed someone with his own hands.

The housekeeper didn't bother to take care of the drowned woman and child, so he picked up the pennants and pushed the boat to the shore. The bottom of the boat slammed into the head of the concubine who was struggling in the water.

"Let's go!"

The steward jumped ashore and shouted, quickly took his wife and children off the boat and ran away.

On the small boat, there was only one concubine left holding her child in a daze. She quickly put the child down, used a bamboo pole to prop open the boat, and looked for the sisters and the baby who had fallen into the water.

But the woman who fell into the water was knocked unconscious, and her body could be faintly seen rising and falling underwater, while the baby had disappeared.

"Woooooooooo..."

The concubine finally sat on the bow of the boat and cried, and the children next to her also cried.
