Chapter 311
The boy's voice was loud, and the people sent by other ships to inquire heard it, and pointed at Xiaobao's team one after another.

Chu Yuan was so angry that he yelled at the boy: "What should I do? Your family is the only one who hides taxes!"

But those inspections were just checking in a slow manner, so the boy yelled again: "If there is nothing wrong with your house, can someone check it like that? Could it be that your ship's photo is fake?"

This remark has aroused people's discussion.

Passengers with a good attitude simply went ashore to buy things, but more people watched the excitement and it was no big deal. They were idle anyway, so they chatted along the boy's words:
"I heard that there are really fake boat photos."

"Is there anything fake? It's just a piece of paper, you can stamp it with a carrot!"

"Don't talk about fake seals, everyone has fake ones!"

"That's no nonsense, there are no dummies, how much less money does the coffin shop make!"

"You're talking about a paper man, I'm talking about a fake girl, hahaha..."

People are always like this, chatting about gossip, chatting and talking.

The head of the inspection is still holding the ship's photo to study, while others have asked to inspect every item.

This is a bit too much.

Xiaobao transported porcelain this time, and it was uniformly inlaid on a large wooden board, so you only need to lift the quilt and partitions covered above, and you can see it at a glance.

But these people actually asked to dig out the porcelain bottles and jars for inspection.

These bottles and jars are filled with soil, so as not to be bumped and shaken when they are empty, so the soil inside must be taken out before they can be taken out.

There is only such a small space on the ship, get the soil out, and then dig out the porcelain, a thousand pieces of porcelain, such inspections, it is estimated that it will not be finished by this time tomorrow.

"Then if you don't do it, we can only check it ourselves!"

The head of the patrol inspector raised his chin and told his subordinates: "You guys, dig it out yourself to see if there is any entrainment. Not only the inside of the can, but also the space between the two cans and the inside of the quilt must be checked! The partitions must also be split to see See if there is a mezzanine!"

This situation is clearly not right.

The ships in front were not checked so strictly.

This is not Guandu, there are not too many procedures, the ships, the number of people, and the goods, these three aspects can be compared with the previous records of Guandu, and then the ferry tax should be released.

The speed should be faster than Guandu.

Zhou Xiaochuan gestured to the other boats, telling the people on board to keep an eye on the inspections.

According to the previous analysis, the biggest possibility is that they will delay the time and damage the goods, so Zhou Xiaochuan asked them to watch them one-on-one.

After Chu Yuan and Xiao Sining summed up their lessons, they didn't look at anything else, and specially put Xiaobao in the middle to take care of them. What if these people violently killed people?

Li Hu saw that they took good care of Xiaobao, so he also focused on the inspection movements.

However, since people come to dawdle on the boat, they naturally have their own unique methods.

Xiaobao was very excited, and he said very cooperatively: "My lords, our goods are all porcelain, and they are very valuable. You just need to check it, as long as you don't damage it!"

Li Hu glared at him: "Haha!"

Was the kid kicked in the head by a donkey?Tell people how expensive it is, and check it casually?
"Heh, this young master is sensible!" the inspector chief praised.

Then he ordered his subordinates: "Be serious, don't let down the young master's intentions!"

Chu Yuan gave Xiaobao an elbow: "Biao, you!"

Xiao Bao squeezed his eyes: "You forgot? Just watch!"

Chu Yuan slapped his head and smirked.

Xiao Sining didn't understand, so he said, "What's going on, tell me quickly, is it fun to watch?"

Chu Yuan covered his mouth and nose: "Just a reminder, cover your nose!"

Soon, the bedding partitions and quilts on the No. [-] ship were lifted layer by layer, revealing the large bottles and jars embedded in the wooden boards below.

These jars were all sealed with oiled paper and hemp rope, and they seemed to contain something.

"Hey! Are you smuggling alcohol?" a patrol inspector said loudly.

The onlookers on the pier began to discuss: "Did you see it, there are indeed private goods!"

"It really does!"

"With so many altars, fines don't work, do they? Go to jail?"

"Fifty boards, 3000 two, three years, or the least!"

Some people have estimated the penalty standard, and it seems that they are still familiar with the law.

Even the porters slowed down the pace of carrying, kept stretching their necks to look this way, waiting for the moment when the jar would be unsealed.

People's curiosity is always abundant.

I want to open everything that is sealed, such as closed doors, locked drawers, and tightly covered jars.

Xiaobao showed a flustered expression, and immediately pretended to be calm to cover up: "No! How can it be! No way! There's nothing in there, it's just dirt, really, it's nothing!"

Chu Yuan also cooperated immediately: "My lord, it's really nothing! It's either wine or mud for shockproof clothing!"

These two people looked like they were facing a formidable enemy, which naturally made the inspectors speed up the speed of Kaifeng.

A patrol inspector took out a dagger and stabbed it down, and the oil paper "stabbed" and it leaked, and with another stroke, the oil paper seal cracked into a big hole.

The patrol inspector reached in and touched it, and it was really dirt.

Since it's really dirt, why are they so nervous?
He scratched his hand inside again, but it was still dirt.

The inspector rolled his eyes and said, "Brothers, don't just look at the soil on the surface, but see if there is anything buried underneath!"

"Okay!" All the inspectors responded one after another.

"My lord, give me something to eat!"

"Uncles, uncles, you are hungry, give me a copper coin, I haven't eaten all day!"

A few children's voices came, and everyone looked up, only to see a group of children in rags running along the gangway onto the boat, shouting one after another.

It was a group of little beggars.

Because it is necessary to make it easier for inspections to board the boat for inspection, the gangway built by the boat has not been removed, but it is convenient for these children to board the boat and beg.

"Get out! Get out!" The chief inspector raised his hand and chiseled the top of the beggar beside him.

"Ouch! My lord, please do me a favor, we don't dare to disturb you, we just have to talk to the nobles on board..." said the child who was beaten.

These children either had a piece of sack wrapped around their heads, or a pile of broken thatch was wrapped around their heads to keep warm.

Every small face is black and gray, there is no clean place, and the facial features are so dirty that you can't see clearly. From the nostrils to the lips, there are two black snot marks that dry and wet, wet and dry again.

The skin lines and nail crevices on the supposedly smooth little hands were filled with black mud, making them look dry and old.

"Brother son, can you give me something to eat?" A dirty child looked at Xiaobao across Chu Yuan.

It is estimated that it is easier to discuss food when they are of the same age.

Hearing the voice, Xiaobao thought it was a little girl, so she wanted to see clearly, but the other person's face was too dirty and her head was covered, so she couldn't tell.

"Don't be stupid! These little beggars can't afford to eat, they might be richer than us!"

shouted someone from the onlookers.

I don't know if it's a good intention.

"Exactly! Which ferry doesn't have these little beggars? They're everywhere!"

"Just do the math, how many boats pass by a ferry in a day, even if a boat only gets ten coppers, people still have to pay one or two taels of silver a day, right?"

"Really! You get one tael a day, and a headhunter is only two taels of silver, right?"

"Then those who have money will give more. These little beggars are sweet-mouthed, and they are looking for well-dressed scholars or young masters to beg for money. If you say a good word, it's just one or two two two!"

"That's right, don't you see that little beggar asked for money from the young master, that young master is also stupid, he really paid for it!"

"People's children are just begging for stuttering, and what you said is too much."

"Cut! You don't understand this, do you? You feel sorry for these beggars, but they are followed by adults, and they are all in the same group!"

"I've heard of this too. If there are adults following you, if you don't give it, they will put you in a sack when you are alone!"

Whatever they said, the kid was still looking at Xiaobao pitifully.

Really can't stand these beggars being ridiculed because of their stuttering, Xiao Bao reached into his pocket to get some coins.
