Immediately afterwards, there was a rough and impatient voice: "Old lady, stop pretending to be pitiful! Zhang Yanwang said that before noon today, there will be three hundred penny 'berth tax', not a penny less! You Shen family's shabby boat is occupying the seat and you still want to eat and drink for free?"
It's Wang Ergou. The number one gangster under Zhang Yanwang, the dock tax collector.
Shen Zhou stood up, his head still buzzing.
He opened the oilcloth curtain full of holes and saw Zhao Sanniang huddled beside the stove in the cramped cabin outside, her face sallow, and the handkerchief covering her mouth was faintly bleeding.
Standing in front of her was a lean man with his clothes open and his black-haired chest exposed. It was Wang Ergou. He had a sinister face and his eyes were full of the excited and cruel light that was unique to the weak when he was bullying.
