"Don't move!"
As soon as Ruan Meng took a step, Xiao Kai became extremely nervous. "Miss Meng, didn't we agree that we would wait for the people A Yuan arranged to arrive before we made any moves?"
Ruan Meng chuckled and took another step forward. It seemed that Xiao Kai was really worried to death.
He wasn't confident he could catch up with Ruan Meng if she started running.
"We can't waste time, can we?"
Ruan Meng chuckled, "Let's wait and observe from the sidelines."
The two were standing not far from the ship docking point, where pedestrians came and went, and fishmongers had spread out their freshly caught fish and shrimp along the way.
Ruan Meng walked over, looked around, and asked about the prices.
Although few people are interested in fish and shrimp, Ruan Meng is a new face. Although her clothes are not shabby, it turns out that there is a hierarchy of contempt in the South Island.
The fishermen in Dongxian County seem to have a much better life than those in Nanxian County.
The fishermen, dressed in coarse linen clothes, stood in stark contrast to the vendors in Nanxian County who set up stalls at the temple entrance, their clothes patched and their straw sandals tattered.
Since Ruan Meng had no intention of buying anything, and the fishmongers weren't very enthusiastic, she didn't mind.
After browsing through a fish stall, Xiao Kai saw from afar that A Yuan was leading a group of people, anxiously watching from the shore.
Xiao Kai led Ruan Meng over, and the two groups met up and hurriedly headed towards the direction where Song Shiwen and Fan Zili had been kidnapped.
The last mark left by the people they sent was found at the headquarters of the Jiaolong Gang.
Xiao Kai booked out the teahouse diagonally opposite and settled Ruan Meng and the fifty people who had come to visit.
Xiao Kai arranged for a few people to find those who had followed them, and also arranged for more than ten people to guard the various directions of the Jiaolong Gang from hidden places to prevent them from secretly moving away.
The main gate of the Jiaolong Gang was open, and people were coming and going. If Ruan Meng hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she would have mistaken these people for those from inland gangs.
The building of the hall was magnificent, even more so than the He Family Restaurant.
On this remote, dilapidated, and isolated island in the South Island, it seems somewhat out of place.
The staff entering and leaving wore uniform hemp shirts with front openings, and their clothes were newer and brighter than those of the waiters at He Family Restaurant.
Ruan Meng's gaze darkened slightly as she pondered their possible methods of making money.
Taking advantage of the free time, Ruan Meng asked Xiao Kai to help introduce the rise of the four major gangs in the South Island, their grudges, and the forces that supported them.
Through Xiao Kai, Ruan Meng learned that there was also a Money Gang in Xi County, ranking third in power in the Southern Island, and backed by...
Although the situation is unclear, there is a very ambiguous relationship between him and the island officials who manage the mines.
The reason why the Green Dragon Gang dared to act so arrogantly in Nan County was because the prefect had the leniency to them.
Just as I heard about the feud between the Jiaolong Gang and the Hai Nu Gang, I heard a commotion at the door.
A group of constables in official uniforms entered directly through the main gate, leaving the gang members at the entrance looking somewhat bewildered.
Ruan Meng and Xiao Kai stood up, while the others stood sideways at the window to observe the movements on the other side.
Before long, Ruan Meng saw Song Shiwen and Fan Zili being ushered out by a group of people.
Gang members followed behind, explaining, their faces showing anxiety.
The constables ignored them and continued walking, escorting Song and Fan away.
Ruan Meng and Xiao Kai turned around at the same time, and A Yuan notified the helpers going up and down the stairs, "Let's go!"
As I left the teahouse, I saw several members of the Jiaolong Gang still standing in the middle of the road, looking somewhat disheveled.
"Second Chief, what should we do? I heard that the county magistrate was also summoned to the prefectural government office and has been taken away. Have we offended the prefect?"
"Yes, Second Brother! What should we do now? The Big Boss hasn't returned yet."
......
When Ruan Meng and her group left, they attracted the attention of this group, who had already taken notice of the venue they had booked.
Seeing that Ruan Meng and the others were in a hurry, the man known as the "Second Gang Leader" did not lower his voice when he reprimanded the gang members beside him, and everyone who passed by could hear it.
"What's the panic, Your Excellency? We'll see!"
