"Where did you come from my friend?"

The temporary pavilion only has the function of covering up the scorching sun. The man sitting in the middle looked different from the person next to him. It was indeed not a gorgeous dress, but it was not something that ordinary boatmen could have the ability to wear.

There were four people around him, all dressed in uniform, their eyes were shining everywhere, and there was a single knife hanging behind him, dispersing around the pavilion, staring at every passing boatman and merchant.

As soon as Chen Long arrived, his strange dress immediately made the four guards highly alert. At that moment, someone stepped forward to block Chen Long's path first.

"I'll look for your Wang Caokou."

The position of "Caokou" is equivalent to the hall of the seal in the "Caochuan Gang". Taking the "Daxing Caochuan Gang" as an example, as Chen Long knows, there should be sixteen "Caokou" and four "Chi Cao" on it, and then the deputy gang leader and gang leader.

The "Cao" is only responsible for supervising the transportation of the canal, gangs' internal family laws and external force. In fact, it is the position of guardian of the sect and gangs. It has force, but regardless of money and grain, it cannot be compared with the sixteen "Caokou" in terms of real power.

Those who can take the position of "Caokou" are all out of thousands of ship workers. Some are "Caokou" as scholars, and some are "Caokou" with extraordinary force and the strength of overwhelming many ship workers. Unlike the four "Caokou" appointed by the Gang Director, as long as they can become "Caokou", it means that this person must have been recognized by everyone in the gang.

"Oh, who are you?"

When he heard Chen Long's words, he probably felt that this person might know his own Caokou. The "friend" mentioned by the guard turned into "Your Excellency" without realizing it.

Chen Long did not speak and slowly took out the waist card of the Investigation Department from his sleeve.

"Qing, Qinglong Guard..."

There are not many people who know the name of the Census Department among the people and in the world, but if you want to say that the Census Department is alias "Qinglong Guard", it is really well known to everyone. But people who are in a major area of ​​the capital and have certain knowledge cannot not know that the Census Department is the Qinglong Guard.

The guard's expression suddenly changed drastically. He saw a lot of knowledge, so he naturally recognized at first glance that this was not an ordinary guard's waist card, but at least a lieutenant or above. If Chen Long took out the official card with his official post, the guard would be shocked.

But just that, he looked at Chenlong with lingering fear and said respectfully: "Sir, please wait for a moment, and the villain will report immediately."

After saying that, he quickly ran to the pavilion. The owner there seemed to have noticed it. After hearing the guard's report, he did not dare to sit in his seat anymore. He stood up and turned around and rushed over.

"Yes, it turns out that the Grand Commander Chen Du came..."

"Node" has become the slightest position of the "Daxing Caochuan Gang". Of course, Wang Caokou cannot recognize the twelve zodiac signs, but he recognizes the four commanders in charge of investigation clearly and dare not forget even if they die.

The position of the Investigation Commander, the military officer has reached the fifth rank. Even in the capital, it is still a good official rank, and it can dominate the party even more in the local area. Moreover, this is the Investigation Commander, which is even more difficult.

Wang Caokou knew very well that not only him, even the leader of his gang would bow his head and shout respectfully when facing this Duwei Chen.

"Wang Caokou is fine, you are living a leisurely life."

Chen Long took back his waist card and said slowly.

"Where can you dare to be, and wherever you dare to be, you will be supported by the care of the Chief Chen and the people in the Investigation Department, so that you can have a villain today."

Wang Caokou walked towards the pavilion facing Chen Long on the left, "I wonder what kind of thing is there to do when Captain Chen is here?"

"Are your gang leader here?"

"Gangmaster? Is Captain Chen looking for our gangmaster?"

Wang Cao was shocked and couldn't figure out what Chen Long said, and said carefully: "Our gang leader..."

"Don't be suspicious, it has nothing to do with your gang leader."

Chen Long stood by the pavilion, looked at the busy merchant ship at the port, and said slowly: "I'm looking for your gang leader to ask him for help."

"help?"

Wang Caokou hesitated for a while before he explained the whole story: "Emperor Chen, it's a bit unfortunate. Our gang leader left Daxing City three days ago and went to Zizhou for something. I'm afraid that the gang leader might not be able to find the gang leader, but our deputy gang leader is on the ship."

"Okay, then please ask Wang Caokou to introduce your deputy gang leader to me."

"No trouble, no trouble, this is the honor of the villain."

Wang Caokou showed his eyes, and the guard next to him immediately stepped back respectfully and ran towards a large sand boat in the distance.

Wang Caokou led Chen Long to walk slowly while carefully striking indirectly, trying to find out Chen Long's true intention. Chen Long didn't take it seriously. This "Cao Chuan Gang" is different from many other gangs. He basically relies on the court for his salary. He is very awe of officials from the court, afraid that he will come to find trouble. Especially the Investigation Department, let alone the "Cao Chuan Gang", even the other departments of the court are afraid of death. Once the Investigation Department comes to him, his first thought is to commit a crime.

There are many sand ships parked on the shore. These ships that can sit on the beach without fear of stranding, are less affected by the tide, and can sail against the wind and water. They are also the type of ship that transports the most grain. Sand ships with a load of 4,000 to 6,000 stones can sail on the Chu River without obstacles, while sand ships on the heavier 9,000 stones can be more resistant to waves and voyages. There are many sea sand ships that can sail thousands of miles as merchant ships, reaching the distant Haizhou, Qiyu and other places, and transporting precious spices, Qiyu and commodities, Qiyu and livestock for high profits.

The load capacity of the big sand ship in front of him is estimated to be about 9,000 stones, and it is undoubtedly a very large ship. However, for Chen Long, who has seen the more majestic tower ship of the Great Chu Navy, the sea sand ship in front of him is nothing.

The guard ran onto the sand boat, and soon a middle-aged man with a complexion in a simple plainclothes quickly met him.

The contact with the "Caochuan Gang" was not in Chen Long's hands before, and he just had some friendship with this Wang Caokou. This was the first time that the deputy leader of the "Caochuan Gang" had seen him. However, even though he was more than ten feet away, he also noticed that the other party's eyes were full of light, his temples were slightly raised, and he was very steady when walking, and he had the momentum of a superior. He was obviously a martial arts master.
