Two days after Wu Bu left, Zhang Yang's boat had been sailing smoothly. Finally, they were about to arrive at Mingde Prefecture, which was not far from the shore.

"Stop."

At this moment, a fast boat suddenly appeared on the river and stopped their boat.

"What do you do? Transport goods or people?"

Some fierce young men jumped onto Zhang Yang's boat from the fast boat.

"Aiyo, guards, we're transporting people.”

The old boatman quickly went up to him.

"Five taels of silver for the ship transporting people!" The few fierce men opened the curtains of the cabin, glanced around, and turned to the ship.

"Five taels? It rose again? It's only been a few days." The old boatman muttered in a low voice.

However, he still obediently handed over the silver.

Zhang Yang slightly frowned as he thought," Is the tax of Great Jin so heavy?

"Young Master Zhang, this is not the tax of the Great Jin Imperial Court, but collected by the demons in the river.”

Yan Shiyi explained in a low voice when he saw his confusion.

"Oh?" Zhang Yang almost burst out laughing.

Demons in the river? It must be that evil flood dragon.

He actually openly collected silver from the Azure Water River, and the amount was so large.

It was Zhang Yang's first time to hear such a thing.

It was simply refreshing!

"Humph!" Zhang Yang sneered as he returned to the cabin.

After the ship had used up all the silver, the ship could continue moving forward.

Not long after, they arrived at a ferry, and this trip was considered over.

Before leaving, Zhang Yang took out 5 taels of silver and gave it to the boatman.

"Young Master Zhang, thank you!"

The boatman and his son bent down and thanked him repeatedly.

"Go back. Be careful on the way."

After Zhang Yang and the others walked far away, the boatman and his son were still watching Zhang Yang's back.

" He's a good man," the old boatman muttered.

Nobody noticed that a rope suddenly appeared on the river surface soon after Zhang Yang left.

Zhang Yang left Tao Sanniang and Tong Jiuniang on the bank and asked them to investigate the whereabouts of the evil flood dragon secretly.

He had to get rid of this flood dragon no matter what.

The capital city of Mingde Prefecture was much more prosperous than Anping County where Zhang family was located. It was Zhang Yang's first time to see such a boisterous place since he transmigrated.

The bustling crowd almost made him think that he had returned to the Blue Planet. The small vendors that could be seen everywhere on the roadside were doing their best to sell their wares. The air was emitting a faint fragrance of wine, mixed with the fragrance of ink, meat, and cosmetics.

Wu Ming acted as the host very well. As he walked, he introduced some of the local customs of Ming De Prefecture.

"Young Master Zhang, this street is the most prosperous place in Ming De City.”

"At the end of the street is the Chief Secretary's office.”

Unknowingly, the carriage was about to reach the Chief Secretary of Ming De Prefecture.

"Yes." Zhang Yang nodded silently.

In fact, his trip here was not just to meet the governor. The main reason was to understand some secrets of this world from him.

There were some things that ordinary people might not know so clearly, but a governor was equivalent to a provincial and municipal cadre in the future, so he would probably know a little.

"Young Master Zhang, we're here."

Zhang Yang's train of thought was interrupted by Wu Ming.

He raised his head and looked ahead, only to see a simple and unadorned large courtyard appear in front of him.

This must be the residence of the governor.

"Young Master Zhang, please."

Wu Ming eagerly led the way.

Zhang Yang didn't think too much as he followed Zhang Tie into the courtyard.

Shen Liang followed closely beside him.

After Yan Shiyi went ashore, he left alone. He didn't come to the governor's home with Zhang Yang.

"Young Master Zhang, please wait a moment."

Wu Ming took Zhang Yang into the parlor before looking for his mistress.

The governor was currently in the yamen and had not returned home.

Not long after, a beautiful woman in her forties walked in.

"Greetings, Madam."

Zhang Yang knew that she must be the wife of the administrative commissioner as he hurriedly stood up and bowed to her.

"Mr. Zhang, you're welcome. Please take a seat.”

"Thank you, Madam."

After the host and guest sat down, a young maid quickly brought over a cup of tea.

"Mister Zhang, my daughter was in danger. Fortunately, Mister Zhang appeared in time and saved my daughter. He really had no way to repay his great kindness.”

The Chief Secretary's wife said gratefully.

"Madam is too polite."

"My husband and I only have this daughter. If anything happens to her, my husband and I really can't live on.”

The Chief Secretary's wife sighed.

"The world is very chaotic. It's better for a young woman to go out less.”

Zhang Yang sighed slightly.

"Mr. Zhang is right. It's just that my daughter is stubborn and never listens to us. Speaking of which, it's my fault for spoiling him too much. Sigh.”

Zhang Yang didn't know why he felt that the wife of the administrative commissioner was looking at him.

He couldn't help but feel a little strange.

What he didn't know was that there were two young women peeking at him through the curtain.

Of course, the two women were the young lady and her maid Xiao Yuan whom Zhang Yang saved in Tiger-Subduing Mountain.

"Miss, I was anxious that day, so I couldn't see very clearly. Now that I look carefully, this Young Master Zhang is really good-looking.”the round-faced maid, Xiao Yuan, whispered.

"It's passable." The young lady nodded.

"Miss, your taste is really high. I have never seen a man who is more beautiful than Young Master Zhang.”

Little Yuan was the Miss's personal maid and had always spoken without restraint.

"You talk too much!" Miss gently tapped Little Yuan's forehead.

"Miss, Master is back." Little Yuan looked back and said anxiously.

"Hurry up and leave." The two young women fled in a hurry.

Not long after, a square-faced man in his fifties walked into the living room.

It was the administrative commissioner of Ming De Prefecture.
