At this moment, he was looking at Chen Mu with a smile.
"Fisherman, good things are coming for you."
"We from the Bailang Gang have a big deal to discuss with you!"
Chen Mu looked at the two of them without any surprise.
When he was selling a large amount of fish for the third time, he noticed someone was watching him secretly. Now he couldn't help but jump out.
"Okay." Chen Mu said calmly.
Now it was the turn of the two Bailang Gang members to be surprised.
Isn't this fisherman too calm?
"You're smart!" The two snorted coldly, "Come with us."
"No problem." Chen Mu said calmly.
Follow the two of them and leave.
The two of them stared at him, one in front and one behind.
Chen Mu was not nervous at all and followed the two people walking on the main street of East Market.
Judging from the direction, it seems that we are going to Anlefang.
But as they were walking, the person who was staring at Chen Mu from behind had his view suddenly blocked by a middle-aged man passing by.
He didn't care much.
But when the passers-by walked by, the fisherman disappeared? !
Where is the person? Wasn't he still here just now?!
The two stood at the street corner in a daze. Apart from the people passing by, there was no trace of Chen Mu.
In a small alley.
Chen Mu carried the basket and walked briskly.
They were just two gangsters. They were usually brave and aggressive, and could only deal with ordinary people.
The Red Falcon's leaping form is best at dodging and moving.
He just adjusted his pace slightly and used passers-by as cover to easily shake off the two men.
He must be crazy to follow those two guys to the so-called Bailang Gang.
only……
"If you don't ask for protection money directly, but arrest me for an interview, then you are not interested in my little fish."
Chen Mu thought silently.
“Selling large amounts of fresh live fish at one time is still too eye-catching.”
There is only the Bailang River outside Qingshan County, and no large lakes.
Ordinary fishermen don’t have the kind of harvest that Chen Mu has.
Chen Mu sighed. Don't underestimate anyone. Especially the gangs on the street. They are very smart.
"Someone has taken a fancy to my bait."
……
He avoided pedestrians along the way and made a detour to avoid being followed.
Chen Mu returned to his home in the west of the city.
There is a grape trellis on the east side of the yard, which was planted by the previous tenant of the yard.
The vines are entangled and climb all over the wooden frame, forming a natural sunshade.
There was a stone table under the shelf, and a familiar figure was sitting beside the table.
He has silver hair and beard, drooping eyelids and an expressionless face.
It was Jie Jia who was waiting for dinner.
Since Chen Mu moved in, Jiejia has become a frequent visitor. He has three meals a day.
With this great master in charge, Chen Mu felt much more secure.
It’s just a few meals, Chen Mu doesn’t care.
At this moment, Jiejia was busy making balls, silver balls.
He held a piece of silver in his left hand, pinched it between his right index finger and thumb, and pinched and pulled it.
The hard metal was like a piece of plasticine. He easily pulled off a small piece of it, then rubbed it with his fingers, quickly kneading it into silver beads the size of soybeans.
The beads were polished by the craftsman to be round and smooth without any edges or corners, and it was obvious that he was an expert at it.
Noticing Chen Mu coming in, Jie Jia rolled his eyes and glanced at him, then picked up the silver beans on the stone table one by one and held them in the palm of his hand.
With a flip of his wrist, he put the silver beans into his sleeves and they disappeared completely.
Chen Mu was not surprised by Jiejia's strange hobby.
After taking a quick look, she went into the house to "remove her makeup".
……
half an hour later
Fried fish, boiled fish, cold vegetables, fish ball soup, white wheat rice. The stone table was filled with delicious dishes.
"I want to get some information." Chen Mu picked up a piece of boiled fish and said.
"Speak." Jiejia squinted his eyes and chewed the fish balls.
"Does the Bailang Gang know?" Chen Mu asked.
Jie Jia narrowed his eyes and thought for a moment: "Two taels."
"Okay." Chen Mu nodded in agreement.
"I'll give it to you after dinner." Jiejia took a bite of the sour seasonal vegetables and nodded with satisfaction.
"Are you in trouble?" Jie Jia tempted, "I can help you get rid of them."
"Goodbye." Chen Mu waved his hand: "I can't afford that price."
"You can get a discount." Jiejia persuaded patiently.
"10% off?" Chen Mu looked surprised.
Jie Jia: “…”
Go wherever is cool!
……
At night, in the courtyard next to the Zuo family.
Chen Mu lit the oil lamp and carefully studied the note in his hand.
The leader of the Bailang Gang is Zhang Ye, who has three hall masters under him. It is the largest gang in East City.
Including Anlefang, most of the prosperous East City area is the territory of the Bailang Gang.
It is said that there is an unclear connection between him and a big family in the city.
Xinyou Alley is the main base of the gang.
Daily task allocation, major negotiations, financial disbursements, etc. are all completed there.
"East Market, Xinyou Alley..."
Chen Mu pondered for a while and sighed helplessly.
“This world is too unfriendly to ordinary people.”
He was just selling fish, but he didn't expect to arouse envy.
Someone came to me and wanted to force me to tell him the secret recipe for fishing.
"Even if I give it to you, I won't be able to live in peace."
In order to ensure that the secret recipe is not leaked, I am afraid that my fate will not be good.
Being forced to join the Bailang Gang and work for it is the best outcome.
If you meet someone who is cruel, you might just kill him or her to silence him or her.
"Why can't you be a good person?"

Chapter 34 Confusion
Early morning, Xinyou Alley
Miao Bai, the leader of the Bailang Gang, walked into the alley with a gloomy face.
Behind him were two dark-faced men who were complaining.
"Haven't you found the fisherman yet?" Miao Bai said in an unfriendly tone.
"That guy was as slippery as a fish. He disappeared in the blink of an eye. In the past two days, my brother and I have traveled around Qingshan County at least five times, but we didn't see him."
"Waste!" Miao Bai's face was gloomy.
He had previously told the hall master that he had found a way to make a fortune.
But there is still no result.
The way the Lord of Heaven looked at him was not right these days.
"Master Bai, it's not that there is no gain."
"Shun Liu, who hangs out at the city gate, said that the fishermen live inside the city. He has seen fishermen carrying empty baskets out of the city."
Miao Bai's expression softened.
