Chapter Eight: Subduing the Goods Guild Market
The next day, Lou Xifeng, officially taking office, arrived at the former territory of the Fire Cloud Gang,
the Goods Guild Market in the southern section of Chuyun River. It was called the Goods Guild Market because it was a place where poor laborers who ran freight transport lived.
Unlike the prosperity of the southern city docks, it was stinking and rats scurried around even in broad daylight. Hundreds of freight transport
families were crammed into a street only a little over a mile long.
Two Tianqi Gang members who had accompanied Lou Xifeng there were named Mountain Rat and Tree Eagle;
they had almost forgotten their original names.
"Brother Feng, there are about two thousand people here, but unfortunately, they're all so poor they can't even afford pants
. There's nothing to gain." Mountain Rat was short and stout, but his small head was pointed at the top and wide at the bottom, resembling a
pangolin.
"Yes. But following Brother Feng is definitely the right choice. I heard Brother Feng is highly regarded by the gang leader, and is
the only candidate appointed by the gang leader to replace that deadbeat Hei Qi." Tree Eagle was of average build, but his arms were
longer than average.
The Tianqi Gang's branch in the cargo market was originally the headquarters of the Fire Cloud Gang. Calling it the headquarters was a bit of a stretch;
it was really just a large teahouse where the cargo dealers gathered in the southern border region. The teahouse was located on the banks of the canal, with about a dozen dilapidated tables
and dozens of benches. Hei Qi, who had been in charge for a few days, hadn't changed anything. In fact, Hei Qi had only been
there once.
Several regular gang members were waiting there. Seeing the new manager arrive, they all came over to pay their respects.
These were all official members of the Tianqi Gang, though far from the actual core of the gang,
they did many of the mundane tasks. The former nobody's dream was to become one of those arrogant and powerful figures;
now, this body was lording it over those people.
Lou Xifeng asked some questions about the goods distribution center, and a young man who looked young but was very composed answered them one by one
.
"What's your name?"
"Boss, my name is Chang Rui."
"Oh, Chang Rui, how's the situation here?"
"Boss, I think the Southern Border Kingdom here is inherently hostile to us. Although they don't openly
resist, they're secretly colluding and will ambush us at any opportunity. A couple of days ago, two of our
brothers were knocked unconscious and thrown into the Chuyun River. Luckily, someone found them and rescued them."
"So what are your plans?"
"It's all up to you, Boss. I'm sure you've brought the latest instructions from the gang leader."
"To tell you the truth, no. Tell me, if we really want to control this place, what should we do?"
"I think we need to prepare two methods. One is hard, the other is soft. Hard, we need to make an example of
a few to suppress the arrogance of the stubborn ones; soft, we need to divide and bribe those who aren't so determined. These
poor Southern Border Kingdom people are naturally only concerned with making a living. Giving them some small favors will divide many of
them.
" "Not bad. Your idea is very good, you'll be in charge of it."
Chang Rui stared blankly at Lou Xifeng. He didn't understand why this new leader of the freight gang
would so easily delegate power to him. He knew that the first rule for all gang leaders was to hold all the power
in their own hands, see who was loyal, and then give them any benefits.
"Chang Rui, where are the two wounded brothers who were thrown into the river?"
"They're in our quarters."
"Take me there."
The Tianqi Gang's freight branch had over 50 members, most of whom had returned to their homes in the south of the city. The two wounded men,
unable to move easily, were placed in a temporary requisitioned quarters.
They were two Tianqi Gang members with shifty, weasel-like faces. Both were wrapped in
bandages, not only on their heads but also on their bodies, clearly seriously injured. Upon hearing that it was the new leader, the two began cursing the freight gang members
from the south, claiming they had attacked them from behind, causing their injuries and near-death experiences in the Chuyun River.
"Did you two see who hit you?"
"No. They hit us from behind. Hitting someone in the gut is always one of these Southern Kingdoms' specialties."
"Why did they hit you?"
"What other reason could there be? They hate us, of course."
Lou Xifeng nodded, stood up, and carefully examined their injuries. In addition to the wounds and bruises caused by the clubs
, scratch marks were found on both of their necks or chests.
"Are you two badly injured? Why are you bandaged up there?"
"Master, you don't know how fierce those women are. We only teased her a few times, and she kicked us
twice. If we hadn't been kicked in vital areas, we wouldn't have been so easily ambushed from behind."
"Hmm, don't worry, I'll definitely give you a fair chance."
"Thank you, Master."
"Chang Rui, Shan Shu, Shu Ying, how about you three come with me to the market?"
"Boss, isn't that a bad idea? If someone ambushes us, we'll be at a disadvantage." Shan Shu said worriedly.
"Isn't that a perfect excuse to clean up this place?"
Because hundreds of households were crammed into this street, making it extremely narrow, many
people looked at us with hostility and suspicion, but everyone we met automatically moved aside, even the
children were pulled away by the adults next to them.
Although there are over two thousand people here, the majority are women and children; there are very few able-bodied men.
At this time of year, they're probably all out at the docks carrying goods. In my previous world, slums like this also
existed, with similarly poor sanitation; many children ran around naked without pants .i=68> They went. Several girls who had already developed still curiously stared at the 　　well-dressed outsiders, their still-developing breasts exposed. 　　 Wherever people gather, there will be a leader, just like animals in a herd will always 　　have a king. Originally, there was a "king" here, named Black Tiger, but after being defeated, Black Tiger disappeared.

It must have been Qi Dashan who did it. However, that was just a figurehead king; the real king should be the most respected
person here, not the most powerful one. "Little brother, who is your favorite old man?" Lou Xifeng 　　asked kindly
, pulling aside a naked little boy . 　　 "Is it Grandpa Wang Chun? He likes us children the most," the little boy answered timidly. 　　 "Where does he live?" 　　 "He's over there enjoying the cool air." 　　 Following the little boy's finger, Lou Xifeng saw a group of old men and immediately recognized 　　Wang Chun. The reason was simple: an old man who had long guided a region naturally made those around him pay attention to 　　their words and actions and their distance from him. 　　 Lou Xifeng, with a sincere smile, led three subordinates to the old man with the snow-white beard 　　. "Excuse me, sir, are you Elder Wang Chun?" 　　 "Yes, young man, are you the new head of the outer hall?" 　　 "Lou Xifeng. I hope you will give me your guidance in the future." 　　 The elderly men and two burly men around them unconsciously moved closer, but Wang Chun waved his hand to indicate that it was no problem 　　. 　　 "What brings you here, Master?" 　　 "Two brothers were knocked unconscious and thrown into the Chuyun River a couple of days ago. Surely you know about this, sir?" Lou 　　Xifeng paused, glancing around at the truck drivers. "I'm not here to interrogate you, but I just want you to tell 　　me what evil deeds those two men committed against the residents here." 　　 "What are you saying, Master? I don't understand. Nothing happened here, and 　　we know nothing about your two gang members either." 　　 "I see. I have another purpose in coming. I hope you can visit our branch after dinner tonight 　　and observe how I handle those two gang members." 　　 "I will certainly be there." 　　 Wang Chun waved to stop the commotion, watching Lou Xifeng and the other three leave. He thought for a moment, " After 　　dinner tonight, have everyone take their weapons to the Big Bowl Teahouse. Also, invite the fourth daughter of the Yu family." 　　 "Brother Wang Chun, what do they mean? Is this a show of force? 　　 " "Hmph, do you think I'm afraid of a show of force? Do you think we, who make our living by the water year-round, are 　　so easily dealt with?" 　　 The day passed quickly. After dinner, the lamps were lit, and a large group of freightmen had gathered outside the Big Bowl Teahouse 　　. Each carried a carrying pole, their eyes fixed unfriendly on the outsiders inside. 　　 Compared to the hundreds of people outside, the Tianqi Gang members were far fewer, numbering 　　only a dozen or so including Lou Xifeng, Chang Rui, Shu Ying, and Shan Shu. Each gripped their short swords tightly, staring at the white-bearded 　　old man, Wang Chun, except for Lou Xifeng. 　　 "Old man, you keep your word. But such a grand display seems unnecessary, doesn't it?" 　　 "We heard the leader was in trouble, and these spirited men all wanted to see if they could help." 　　 "Oh, I see. Enough with the small talk, let's get down to business. Someone, bring those two wounded gang members here 　　." 　　 Someone went out and quickly brought over two wounded men covered in bandages. Upon seeing the scene before them, the two 　　men were startled and stumbled over. "Leader, be careful! These poor southern barbarians are going to cause trouble..." 　　 Suddenly, someone kicked them both from behind, right in the back of their knees. The two men fell to their knees with a thud 　　. "Chang Rui, what are you doing?" someone exclaimed. 　　 But then Lou Xifeng spoke slowly, his voice stern: "You two have raped a woman, causing 　　a terrible impact on our gang. Why don't you confess the truth?" 　　 "Master, we're innocent! We didn't! It was those poor southern barbarians who attacked us!" 　　 "Then how do you explain the scratches on your bodies? Why are the club wounds on your heads from before? 　　Why are your genitals so badly injured? If you hadn't incurred public wrath, would anyone want to harm you? 　　Do you think you can escape punishment by lying? All the freightmen gathered here are witnesses." Lou Xifeng 　　turned to Wang Chun, "Isn't that right, old man?" 　　 The situation before him caught Wang Chun off guard, surprising all the freightmen present. Wang Chun 　　nodded subconsciously. 　　 "Then, I'd like the victim to come forward and identify them, is that alright?" 　　 "The fourth daughter of the Yu family is the victim." 　　 A young woman with a long braid, pale but undeniably beautiful, walked in from the crowd 　　. Her almond-shaped eyes widened, her willow-leaf eyebrows furrowed, and she pointed at the two gang members kneeling on the ground 　　, shouting, "These two hooligans broke into my house, injured my mother, and forcibly..." She then burst into tears 　　. 　　 "What happened next, I'd like to ask Old Man Wang Chun to tell you, what do you say?" 　　 "Alright. These two men rushed in and forcibly assaulted the fourth daughter of the Yu family. The eldest daughter of the Yu family, seeing the situation was bad, ran out to 　　ask for help. At that time, most of the able-bodied men were busy at the dock, and the remaining few, led by me, rushed 　　over. But by then, the fourth daughter of the Yu family had already been raped. Those two bastards, while fastening their pants, were 　　hurling insults, saying things like, 'You stinking freight women, I can have as many as I want, and I'll come back tomorrow 　　,' etc. I wasn't calm enough at the time, so I hit them." 　　 "But the injuries on these two don't seem to have been caused by one person, do they?" Lou Xifeng stared intently at the old 　　man. 　　 "The others were helping out; I was the main perpetrator."The crowd outside was in an uproar, shouting, "I did it! It has nothing to do with Old Master Wang!" 　　 Lou Xifeng waved his hand and shouted loudly to the two injured men, "We have witnesses, we have bystander witnesses, and your 　　injuries are physical evidence. I think some of our brothers know about these shameful things you've done. I 　　don't want them to come forward and testify against you. Now, I ask you one question: do you plead guilty or not?" 　　 "Master, you can't just listen to their side of the story!"

"Oh, really? You're questioning my judgment? Very well then. Chang Rui, Mountain Rat, Tree Eagle,
the rest of you brothers, the moonlight is lovely tonight. How about I treat you all to a drink at Qingfu Restaurant? These two brothers are
still seriously injured, so we've entrusted the care of the local landlord, Old Mr. Wang Chun, to look after them."
The two injured men, their faces ashen, lunged forward and grabbed Lou Xifeng's pants. "Master, you can't! We're all
from the Tianqi Gang! You can't abandon us and help them!"
"So, do you admit it or not?"
"Yes. We were indeed a bit too much with that girl, but she seduced us..."
"Good, good that you admit it. Chang Rui, what is the tenth rule of the gang?"
"Brothers in the gang must not wantonly harm people within the protected area, must not wantonly rape women, and must not steal
property without permission. Violators will be punished with thirty strokes of the cane for minor offenses and fifty strokes for serious offenses, and will be expelled from the gang."
"Then tell me, didn't these two violate the tenth rule of the gang? How should they be punished?
" "They did indeed violate the tenth rule of the gang, but they have already been punished and are quite seriously injured. I think
we should let it go?"
"Hmph, their audacity has caused a terrible impact on our Tianqi Gang. If they are not severely punished,
our corpses might be floating on the Chuyun River tomorrow. Considering their injuries, we will waive the fifty strokes of the cane and
expel them from the Tianqi Gang. From today onwards, if I hear either of you dare to call yourselves members of the Tianqi Gang, don't blame me for being ruthless
."
Upon hearing this, the two injured men collapsed to the ground. The others, including Chang Rui and others, were all astonished
. It's true that every gang member has bullied ordinary people, and rape is a common occurrence, but
at most, they would only receive a few light blows as a warning when things got out of hand. Such a strong
punishment as Lou Xifeng's was extremely rare.
"As I said before, I invited you all to go for a drink. Let's go." As he passed the dazed Wang Chun
, Lou Xifeng said softly, "It's best not to
cause a disturbance at the city government offices if someone unrelated to the Tianqi Gang gets drunk and drowns."
As Lou Xifeng walked past the outer crowd, everyone automatically made way for him, looking at
him as if he were a monster, full of incomprehension.
To be fair, while Lou Xifeng's move won over some of the freightmen, especially their
leader Wang Chun, there were still some stubborn elements secretly plotting against the Tianqi Gang's covert control
. However, Chang Rui quickly dealt with them through a scheme. As a result, Wang Chun not only didn't defend his
men but also demanded that Lou Xifeng handle the matter officially. On the other hand, the softer tactics also yielded unexpected
results. Since the direct threat from these thugs was gone,
the lives of these ordinary people were already quite satisfactory.
In just a few days, Lou Xifeng transformed a once-hostile goods trading group into an annex of the Tianqi Gang.
When the news reached Qi Dashan's ears, he blinked his small eyes. "Send more people to monitor Lou Xifeng, make sure they're skilled
. Also, send someone to dig into his background."
