Jiang Liang has become accustomed to paying heavy taxes of 80 to 90%, but when he said that he and others did not need to pay so much, his face showed a proud expression.
"The Vajra Martial Arts School accepts both black and white. As martial arts disciples, when we salvage in the area of the Giant Jiao Gang, we only need to hand in two or three scores. There are also exemptions from the government."
"Besides, boss, you are the disciple of the master, so they may not dare to accept money."
"..."
This situation was something Zhong Chao had never thought about. After thinking for a while, he nodded towards Jiang Liang: "Go and ask and see what the specific situation is."
"Okay, boss, please wait here for a moment. I'll be back as soon as I go."
After receiving the order, Jiang Liang ran out quickly, while Zhong Chao browsed around the riverside of Jujiang City.
After seeing it, Zhong Chao found that the riverside pier was very lively, even more lively than the inner city.
On the vast Nu River, large ships are constantly coming and going, and at the docks, tens of thousands of poor workers are busy loading, unloading, and tugging ships.
At the same time, various fishing boats continue to ply and fro the Nu River to salvage fish.
However, after observing for a while, he also discovered one thing. Almost all the people working near the dock, whether they were coolie porters or fishermen, were in gangs.
Among them, the four gangs are the largest, and the Jujiao Gang is one of the four major gangs.
"This environment and atmosphere are almost the same as those in Shanghai during the Republic of China."
"Besides, there are so many gangs, this court will be destroyed."
While Zhong Chao was sighing speechlessly, Jiang Liang, who was full of joy, returned, and behind him were a group of gangsters dressed as gangs.
"Boss, I met Lord Heiyu, the cadre who manages this place. He said that we don't have to pay anything for fishing here. And this team was entrusted to you by Lord Heiyu."
"Lord Zhong Chao, if you have any orders at the dock, you can leave them to us."
Hearing this, Zhong Chao raised his eyebrows.
'No money is required, and someone is sent to take care of it. The identity of the master's registered disciple is so useful.'
In fact, the identity of the registered disciple of the master is higher than Zhong Chao imagined. In a luxurious room next to the dock, Heiyu's counselor asked his boss with some worry: "Brother, the disciple of the master is here, we won't see him."
One side? Isn’t it a bit disrespectful to send only a few of them?”
"It's okay. The other registered disciples really need to meet when they come here. But Zhong Chao, he was not accepted as a disciple by the master because of his talent, nor was he recruited as a registered disciple because of his background. He was just lucky and made the master happy, so he was accepted
The owner of the hall is recruiting his disciples. Such people will not go far."
"So, there is no need to go out of your way to win over you. Of course, don't offend me either."
He has no talent, no background, and just good luck, so he was accepted as a disciple by the owner of the gym. This is what most people think of Zhong Chao. For such a person, no one is optimistic about his future, and naturally not many people will respect him.
However, Heiyu is different from Qi Weiye. First of all, as a gang cadre and a cadre who has lived for a long time, Heiyu is much more stable and will not easily make enemies.
Secondly, and most importantly, there is no conflict of interest between the two.
Therefore, although he looked down on Zhong Chao, he would not target him like Qi Weiye. In fact, because of his stable personality, he assigned a few gangsters to Zhong Chao.
…
Zhong Chao didn't know these things. With more subordinates and subordinates who were very familiar with this place, what he wanted to do was accelerated a lot.
Soon, with the help of gang leader Yan Xiang, Zhong Chao and his group rented a small boat and boarded a fleet of boats, sailing towards the river controlled by the Giant Jiao Gang.
While driving towards the fishing area, a bored Zhong Chao looked around. After a while, Zhong Chao was surprised to see an acquaintance on the dock.
"That's it, Oriole, why did she come here... It should be for the precious fish and pearls."
The two of them were not very familiar with each other, so he had no intention of saying hello. He just glanced at them and then looked away.
At the same time, on the shore, Oriole, who had been wandering around the dock area for a long time, also called his subordinates over.
"How's the inquiry going? Is there a team willing to supply our Lishang with catches?"
"No."
"The Fish Flag Group said not to contact them again, as the items they sell have already been covered."
"The same is true here..."
Every word made Oriole feel depressed. The inner city was prosperous, but money was not that easy to make.
In the inner city, every shop must have something special, and the same is true for rouge shops. If there are no particularly good things, there will be no customers at all.
But products with strange effects require special materials to make, and these things are not easy to capture.
In the past, the old owner of Lishang Rouge Shop was still there, and he was kind and could obtain resources from some powerful fishing teams. But now that Oriole has taken over, that relationship is no longer available, which makes her inventory almost sold out.
.
"Keep looking."
"yes."
…
Zhong Chao was unaware of the oriole's troubles on the shore and had no interest in taking care of it. At this moment, he followed Yan Xiang to a special river surface.
The river here is beautiful and calm. Fishermen have cast nets to catch fish, and some people have jumped into the water and used their body skills to catch fish in the water.
Arriving here, Yan Xiang also stopped the boat and said respectfully to Zhong Chao: "Sir, there are no undercurrents on this river and there are few forbidden places. This is where we fish."
"There's no danger at all."
It was Jiang Liang who spoke, and he was even more careful than Zhong Chao.
Faced with his inquiry, Yan Xiang thought for a moment and then said: "That's not true. There is a gray area a hundred meters underwater. It is extremely cold there. If you stay there for a long time, evil spirits will invade your body. There have been people in the water.
After swimming for five minutes, I caught a special wind chill and died. However, you can tell there is something wrong with the sea water there, so as long as you don't touch it, you will be fine."
As he said, he was afraid that Zhong Chao would be displeased, so Yan Xiang explained it again.
"This area is already the best fishing ground. It is simply impossible to enter the Nu River without encountering any danger."
This sentence made Jiang Liang feel even more bitter, but Zhong Chao, on the other hand, was mentally prepared.
"I see."
After saying this, Zhong Chao, like the others, took off most of his clothes and jumped into the water.
"Wow!"
With his excellent swimming ability, Zhong Chao only made a splash when he entered the water.
After learning to swim like a dragon, water is no longer an obstacle to Zhong Chao. Instead, it is as warm and comfortable as home.
Like a dragon returning to the sea, Zhong Chao swam around in the river, then opened his eyes and looked for his target in the water.
Unfortunately, the visibility in the water was extremely low. After Zhong Chao looked around, he only saw a few small fish. None of the special fish he had longed for.
"Not urgent!"
After calming his mind for a moment, Zhong Chao put his hands together at his side, kicked off his feet, exerted force on his back, and with a "swish" sound, he made countless splashes of water and began to swim forward at high speed.
