Chapter 1015 Leaving Changsha Prefecture
Two days later, Sun Shan set out on his journey again.
A group of people appeared at the Changsha wharf with bags of all sizes.
The escort agency for this cooperation is a local escort agency in Changsha Prefecture, called Zhongyi Escort Agency.
The company's specific business is carried out around the areas surrounding Changsha Prefecture, and it is considered to be very strong locally.
The person in charge of this trip was Zuo Biaotou, who was about thirty-five years old and looked very strong and sturdy.
As he approached, he felt a strong pressure on his nose. Sun Shan couldn't help but take three steps back, fearing that he would say something wrong and be punched to death by Zuo Biaotou.
Of course, Zuo Biaotou was not that kind of person. He looked rough and rude, and actually spoke rudely, but his attitude was very gentle. He cupped his hands and greeted Sun Shan: "Master Sun, you are polite."
Sun Shan pretended to be calm, raised his head and chest, stood straight, and said calmly, "Left Escort Captain, polite."
The left escort leader explained to Sun Shan the places they would pass from Changsha Prefecture to Chenzhou Prefecture, the things they should pay attention to during the journey, the time it would take, and so on.
Sun Shan already knew all this, so he said, "I will follow the arrangements of Zuo Biaotou."
Sun Shan was unfamiliar with the place and didn't know how to get around. Who else could he listen to if not the escort agency?
Moreover, the escort company was introduced by Mr. Zhan. Fellow villagers should not deceive each other. It should be safe to follow Escort Captain Zuo.
Sun Shan tried his best to remind himself that the journey would be smooth and safe.
As expected, after a few more hints, I felt much calmer, and as I thought about it, I became more convinced that I would have a smooth journey.
When the left escort leader saw the man running away, and also saw that there were only two women in Sun Shan's team, and they were older women, he couldn't help but look at Sun Shan suspiciously.
It had been determined before that there were more men than women, but I didn't expect that the two women were actually older women, and it was obvious at first glance that they could not be Sun Shan's confidantes.
It is normal for an official not to bring his wife and children with him when he takes office, but it is extremely unusual for him not to bring a few young women with him.
The Sun Magistrate in front of him was all men, could it be...
The left escort leader couldn't help but let his imagination run wild, but he just thought about it and didn't dare to say anything.
He came to do business, not to gossip. He was very professional and would never pry into his clients' secrets.
What's more, it's good that Magistrate Sun brought a group of men with him. They are strong and powerful.
If something happens, no matter whether you can beat him or not, just pulling him out and taking a look at him can scare a lot of people.
After chatting with Sun Shan for a few words, Zuo Biaotou arranged for the cargo and luggage to be loaded onto the ship.
Sun Dali directed the guards to carry things. This time was better than before. After the goods were sold, what was left were the luggage and some newly purchased daily necessities. The quantity was much smaller, and the journey would be much easier.
At least you don’t have to worry about the goods all day long, nor do you have to worry about not being able to sell the goods or getting a good price.
Soon the team was ready and Sun Shan also boarded the boat.
This time was different from previous trips, as no one came to see me off.
Alas, the further you go, the fewer friends you will have. As you walk, you will be left alone walking forward.
After Sun Shan had some random thoughts, he continued to do what he was doing.
As soon as Master Zhang and Big Head Dog got on the boat, their problems started to worsen.
Before the boat had sailed far, Master Zhang excused himself: "Master, I'm going back to the cabin to rest. I'm starting to feel dizzy again."
So Master Zhang followed his wife back to the cabin and lay down on the board. The poor fellow turned pale in a short while, and it looked like he would faint all the way to Chenzhou Prefecture.
Not long after Master Zhang left, Big Head Dog also became ill. His face was pale and gray, his mouth was dry, and bubbles were coming out of the corners of his mouth.
I couldn't help it, so I said, "Master, I feel so uncomfortable. I want to go back too."
Poor big-headed dog, had to sleep on the big bunk bed alone.
Everyone looked at the miserable figure of the big-headed dog without any sympathy. Instead, they rolled their eyes in disdain.
Sun Dali suggested: "Master, don't bring the big-headed dog out next time. It makes him uncomfortable, but it also makes us uncomfortable."
I heard that Big Head Dog got the position of bodyguard through De Ge'er's back door.
Tsk tsk ~ This is the danger of "royal relatives", introducing such unreliable people.
The ancients were right. There is no good end to "foreign relatives interfering in politics."
One of the Sun family men agreed and said, "Didn't the master say that he would send someone to pick up the old master and the old lady after things were settled? I think we should let Big Head Dog go with him next time and not come back. It's not good for people with seasickness to go out. Seeing how uncomfortable Big Head Dog is, I feel sorry for him."
Another Sun family man echoed, "Alas, the village chief has no experience in selecting people. He should ask if they suffer from seasickness. Such a long journey means either climbing mountains or taking a boat. Only those who are good at these two things can be selected."
Sun Dingnan seemed to have thought of something, so he asked, "Are you afraid of heights? What if you need to climb a mountain or a tree and get dizzy?"
When asked this question, the guards immediately denied it: "Butler Sun, we are not afraid of heights. We can walk, eat and cook. We definitely don't have these problems."
Even if there is, I will deny it. What a joke. I have already gone most of the way. It will be embarrassing to be sent back.
They absolutely cannot leave and must stay by Sun Shan's side.
Seeing that everyone disliked Big Head Dog for seasickness, Cao Gen spoke up for him carefully: "Actually, actually, it would be fine if we just get to Yuanlu County. Haha, there is no need to take a big ship or walk a long way. We can just walk. Haha, it would be fine if Big Head Dog gets there. There is no need to chase him away."
Cao Gen is Big Head Dog's childhood friend. Seeing his friend being eliminated, he has to speak to him out of brotherhood.
Even if people say something light, you should still fight for it.
Sun Heitan also stammered to help Big Head Dog: "Yes, I heard from the village chief that the place where the master took office is not near the sea or the river, so it is not necessary to take a boat. Big Head Dog is here now, it would be troublesome to rush back, it is better to stay where he is."
Sun Heitan was not confident either. The situation of the big-headed dog was indeed quite bad. One more or one less would not make a difference. There would be no loss at all if he was thrown back to Sunjia Village. After all, there were many people in the village, so he could choose whatever he wanted.
Sun Shan looked at the guards of Sunjia Village with amusement. They were just talking. If they really wanted to drive the big-headed dog back, they would be the first to jump out.
Because we have already walked more than half of the way, the remaining half is not a big deal. After going through so much trouble to get here, it would be unbearable to be driven back.
Judging from their appearance, they were just making small talk to kill time.
It takes about 10 days to travel from Changsha Prefecture to Chenzhou Prefecture.
Starting from Changsha Wharf, go north along the Xiangjiang River, pass Xiangyin and Yueyang, enter Dongting Lake, then shuttle in Dongting Lake, turn into Yuanjiang River, and go upstream to Chenzhou Prefecture.
The whole journey was probably spent on the boat, and Big Head Dog and Master Zhang were dizzy!
