Chapter 573 -178 Nan Batian: Where is my wife? Where is my wife? (10,000 characters asking for subscription)_6

This was also one of the methods Chen Jie wanted to use to support Uncle Zhong.

At this moment, with a command, Nan Batian led seven hundred men straight toward the Xiantao Ferry.

During this process, Nan Batian issued two Fishing Guild Orders:

[1. Starting today, no cargo ships are allowed on the Mianshui River, violators will be severely punished] Signed: Nan Batian on behalf of Darugachi Mansion!

[2. Reward Order, for any overloaded or suspicious ships recently sighted on the Mianshui River, one can report to the Fishing Guild. For reports verified with concrete evidence, the reporter will be rewarded with ten taels of patterned silver.]

Don’t underestimate these ten taels of patterned silver. We also came from days of utter poverty and understand the purchasing power of ten taels of patterned silver, that’s the equivalent to two or three years of food money for a family!

Therefore, once these messages were issued, Nan Batian felt he would undoubtedly reap rewards.

Soon, the group hurriedly reached Xiantao Ferry. Wu Zhong, having received the news, rushed over and upon seeing Nan Batian, immediately clasped his fist and said, “Gang Leader, greetings to the Gang Leader!”

“What wind has blown you here?”

Upon hearing this, Nan Batian looked at Wu Zhong and said, “Wu Zhong, are you now in charge of managing the ships for White Tiger Hall?”

Wu Zhong responded, “Yes.”

Nan Batian said, “Hmm, that’s good. Have your men bring the ships back; don’t touch the cargo yet. Let us inspect it. Also, hand over the sailing records. If there are any discrepancies, Wu Zhong, you’ll be in big trouble.”

“Hmm, Gang Leader, what is this about? Are you intending to block our port?”

Nan Batian replied, “Yes, is there a problem?”

Wu Zhong said, “Gang Leader, this might not be possible. Our ship operations at White Tiger Hall are separate from the Headquarters, even you can’t just prevent us from sailing or block our ports, it’s against the rules.”

Nan Batian, upon hearing this, looked at Wu Zhong and said, “Against the rules, so let me tell you, from now on, my rule is the rule!”

“Yo, what’s this? Wu Zhong, not convinced?”

“Not daring, not daring. You are the Gang Leader, how can I dare to be disobedient!”

Wu Zhong said this laughingly; Nan Batian, hearing this, looked at Wu Zhong and said, “Alright, still not convinced, you think I am pressing you with my status as Gang Leader. Don’t worry, I, Nan Batian, am not someone who uses his status to oppress others. Look, what is this?”

At this point, Nan Batian took out Yelu’s Waist Token and waved it in front of Wu Zhong.

Wu Zhong took a glance and saw the words [Darugachi].

Darugachi, does Lord Yelu intend to block our port?

Wu Zhong did not think that Nan Batian would deceive him; after all, it wasn’t necessary. Even if Nan Batian was rough, using his status as Gang Leader to oppress others, he still had to comply obediently, so there was no need to fabricate something about Darugachi.

Nan Batian, watching Wu Zhong, said, “See, convinced now? Hurry and bring the sailing records and all the cargo ships; otherwise, you’ll have to consider how to explain to Lord Yelu.”

Wu Zhong, upon hearing this, wasn’t flustered but made a gesture of invitation.

Soon they entered the port, where Wu Zhong said, “Here I have a total of eight cargo ships, all docked here today.”

“Additionally, there are fifty-two fishing boats, as you can see, also here. Today we rest, and no ships are sailing.”

The account was clear, not a single ship went into water; a rest?

Deceiving who?

Nan Batian looked at Tang Ziyue, only to see that Tang Ziyue also had a grim expression. It seemed like the other party was also prepared. Chen Jiusi, Chen Jiusi not already anticipated that he would have come to block their port?

Here, Nan Batian hardly found any grounds to cause trouble, and in the end, he had to leave, stomach full of anger.

Nan Batian angrily said, “This is absurd, today Chen Jiusi’s ships didn’t sail.”

Tang Ziyue said, “What about at Elder Liu’s place?”

Soon the two, along with their men, arrived at Elder Liu’s place. Though they blocked Elder Liu’s port, they still did not discover any suspicious ships; this completely baffled them. What was going on? Could it be that they guessed wrong, and the opponent wasn’t using the river at all?

But this, this can’t be possible!

The two were utterly baffled; Tang Ziyue almost scratched her scalp raw, looking at Nan Batian in confusion, “Gang Leader, I couldn’t have gotten it wrong again, could I?”

Nan Batian also stayed stunned for a while, then said fiercely, “This time there can’t be any mistake, there absolutely can’t be any mistake; we only have this one chance!”

Saying this, Nan Batian’s eyes turned blood red, like a desperate gambler.

The group really achieved nothing, and they all grew tired, deciding to first return to the Fishing Guild Headquarters to rest. Additionally, Nan Batian sent two groups to keep watch at Xiantao Village Ferry and the Fishing Guild’s port. Regardless of whether they had any links with the Zoroastrian Sect, it was better to keep these two ports under control.

At least by preventing their ships from going into the water, they could reduce their income. Without income, their guild would inevitably encounter problems.

Thinking this, Nan Batian and his group returned to the city.

Having run around for a day, also tired for a day and humiliated for a day, Nan Batian changed his clothes, patted his stomach, and decided to have a meal. However, eating alone seemed dull, so he got up and headed toward his wife’s courtyard.

He hadn’t seen his wife for several days, it was just right to have a meal with her today.

Thinking this, he directly headed to the western courtyard. Upon arriving at the courtyard gate, the guards stood erect and greeted, “Good day, Gang Leader.”

Nan Batian responded, “Hmm, my wife didn’t have any trouble today, did she?”

The guards responded, “No, she’s been quietly staying in the courtyard!”

Nan Batian said, “Hmm, go tell the kitchen to prepare something my wife loves to eat; I’ll dine with her tonight.”

“Yes.”

The guard complied, and Nan Batian pushed the door open, only to suddenly hear Nan Batian’s furious roar, “Where is my wife? My wife, where is she!!”
