The night was dark, and Vladivostok finally fell asleep after a busy day. There were still ships waiting to be unloaded at the dock, but at this moment, no stevedores were willing to work overtime. They dragged their tired bodies back to their temporary residence, leaving behind them The captain didn't look back even if he added money.

There are too many factors that restrict the economic development of the Far East, and sparse population is the most serious problem. This is basically a common problem in cold zone areas. The climate determines the human fertility rate, and the population density directly determines the degree of development of the region. .
There are plenty of jobs in Vladivostok, and the income is not low, but there are too few people working out, so all walks of life are in a state of hunger for manpower. In addition, men outside the customs love to drink and spend the money they have. This may be related to their former hunting and gathering life. Only those Han survivors who like to grow crops have the awareness to save.
There are plenty of jobs, the money is easy to make, and there is no natural sense of crisis... This gives all the employees a headache. These people go out to play immediately after earning enough food and drink for the day. Not many people are willing to work overtime.
In addition, the post-war economy was in dire straits and was waiting to be revitalized. The first thing promoted by the colonial economy was infrastructure development. Building roads, building houses, logging, mining, and expanding docks all required manpower to be completed by hand.
The huge market demand directly caused the shortage of manpower. The labor cost in Vladivostok has reached twice that of Naha, but it is still not enough.
The captains on the pier who were anxiously waiting to unload their cargo finally lined up and waited until their ship was close to the pier. However, at this moment, the pocket watch pointer had already pointed to ten o'clock in the middle of the night. At this time, none of the tired stevedores were willing to work overtime, even if the loading and unloading charges increased again. Sancheng also shook his head.
A few workers joined each other to have midnight snacks and then went back to sleep, regardless of the captain's pleading behind them.
"Let's go to Sanniangzi's house to eat pickled cabbage stew... Today's harvest is good, can you drink half a catty?"
"Half a pound is not enough. At least one pound is enough. Come on, hurry up... There are so many people at Sanniangzi's house for late-night snacks, and there will be no seats left. The pair of big, swaying ones are really greedy... Bah, She made all the money, hahaha..."
The man was smiling lewdly all the way, carrying shiny Ryukyu dragon-patterned silver coins and banknotes in his arms, not to mention too many ironed stickers. In order to grab a spot, the group turned a corner and passed through a row of warehouses on the east coast.
This person must be virtuous, especially in the middle of the night, and say less cynical or immoral words, otherwise it is really easy to bump into something.
Perhaps their obscene noises had angered some ghost or god. As soon as they entered the darkest section of the warehouse area, which is more than 100 meters away, a penetrating cold air suddenly came over them. The four loaders suddenly felt that the hairs on their bodies were exploding. This feeling lasted forever. Rushed to the top of the head.
Boom... Boom... Boom... A dull and monotonous sound suddenly came over. It was a bit like beating a gong, and a bit like the rhythm of a giant walking. But it was no surprise that this sound came from underground. The four people present Very sure.
No one can describe the terrifying atmosphere at that time. You couldn't see your fingers around, and you could only vaguely distinguish the surrounding buildings with a little starlight. Such a terrifying sound suddenly appeared in the silent night, and the four people were frightened. All soft.
"What... something! Is there a ghost..."
"You're so stupid, spit out your mouth! You can't say this word at night..." Someone next to him directly blocked the big tongue's mouth.
"Hand in hand, hand in hand... there is a house not far ahead. We will never walk this way again!"
At that moment, the four of them all thought of the bizarre legends in Vladivostok these days. Ancient people believed very strongly in gods, and everyone believed in gods and ghosts.
There was a great battle in Vladivostok, and corpses were everywhere, especially during the street fighting in the city. Lao Maozi died in batches. After the war, the corpses were pulled in carts, and there were several mass graves outside the city where the corpses were buried.
If there are too many dead people, it must be haunted. During this period, there are always rumors among the people in Vladivostok about ghosts beating the wall in the middle of the night, ghosts crying in the middle of the night, and strange noises. Some people even swore that they had seen Yin soldiers taking advantage of the passage.
As rumors spread more often, ghosts appeared in people's hearts. In many uninhabited areas, people only dared to live during the day and hid at night. For example, in this warehouse area near the seaside in the east of the city, there are a lot of hoarded houses. There are no residents around the volunteer army's ammunition, and it is most desolate at night. If the four brothers hadn't been rushing to grab a position, they wouldn't have taken this shortcut even if they were killed.
Now I have no regrets about taking the medicine. I walked around two turns a hundred meters ahead. It would be a waste of time to turn back. The four big men held hands and ran forward with a strange scream.
At this moment, suddenly several green lights appeared on the roadside, like fireflies emitting green light. They were so frightened that they shouted "O will-o'-the-wisp! Run quickly..."
This really took all their energy. They had no idea how they got here for more than a hundred meters. It seemed like an illusion, but also like they witnessed it with their own eyes. They saw countless ghosts and wild ghosts with green lanterns surrounding them. He ran with them, his blood-red tongue dragging out long.
There were even screams for help all around, as if someone had been caught by these wild ghosts again and was going through something tragic. What was even more terrifying was the monotonous banging sound underground, which kept ringing endlessly.
Maybe it was because the four men had strong firepower, or maybe it was because they ran fast. When they arrived at Sanniangzi's shack snack bar, the four of them were surprised to find that they had broken out of the darkness.
Familiar faces in the shack looked at them with lanterns, "Hey, did you collide with something?"
"Yes, yes... there's a ghost! We really saw it..." The four of them were so frightened that they rushed into the shack, causing people around them to avoid it.
Just when people were asking what happened, the coquettish Third Lady also ran in in horror, "I was scared to death. I went out to pour some water and heard a ghost screaming. But I was scared to death and wet my pants... …”
People looked down and saw that the corners of Sanniang's cotton trousers were soaked through. Then they looked at Sanniang's belt, which was not fastened, revealing a white waist.
But it’s really strange. Why did I go out to let out water? The buttons on my jacket and jacket were all unbuttoned. What kind of urine was this? Do you still have to take off your clothes and expose yourself?
"Sister-in-law! Didn't you let a pervert get you?" Everyone burst into laughter.
"Bah, bah, bah... What bad luck! Your mother has been possessed by a ghost! Hurry up and drink your yellow soup to kill the dead body... I really can't go to the warehouse area in the middle of the night. It's really scary. It's all banging and banging. Ghost noise…”
Ghost stories are scary, but for people of that era, this ghost story was a very good leisure and entertainment. They don’t have movies and TV to watch, let alone modern people who have computers and mobile phones to play with.
The boring time is actually passed by various bizarre stories. What happened tonight will become one of the series of Vladivostok ghost stories as long as it ferments for a few more days.
But no one expected that soldiers from the patrol team would come to the door early the next morning and drag up all the hungover drunkards.
"Everyone stand still, Shuaihu was killed in the warehouse area last night! If any of you have any clues, please provide them immediately!"
"Oh, are we? There is really a ghost!"
With a clang, the copper basin in Sanniang's hand hit the ground, and the four loaders turned pale with fright, their feet softened and they rushed over.
