Chapter 120: Zhang Chaorong who was trapped
"Huh? Into the ground? No, no, no! Shu Wu, uncle, I'm this age, so let's get rid of it, anyway, don't worry, I will definitely listen to your opinion on the matter of Kuala Terengganu! ”
Zhang Chaorong's head shook like a rattle, and Zhang Chaorong was unwilling to ask Ye Kai to let him join the local council.
He knew why Ye Kai wanted him to join, because this time he went to Bangkok, not only Ye Fulai's title was promoted to Kun, but Zhang Chaorong also got a title of 10,000.
The rest of the Ye family made the order of a county, and Zhang Chaorong was directly sealed by Rama I, above the others, below Ye Fulai, and his palace Yin was directly under the jurisdiction of the governor of Pattanii in Songkhla, not under the jurisdiction of Ye Fulai, the deputy governor.
Zhang Chaorong knew that this arrangement was a handful of sand that King Rama I deliberately mixed between the Chinese in Pattani and the Chinese in Kuala Terengganu, in order to prevent the Ye family from becoming too strong.
Because without the 60,000 or 70,000 Chinese in Kuala Terengganu, the Ye family only has more than 120,000 people in their own house, which is equivalent to poaching one-third of the Ye family's strength.
And Zhang Chaorong is also quite happy, this guy is a shiny and slippery Pipi Eel, he has accepted the Dutch title of Kapitan, and the Portuguese eyebrows, and once secretly expressed his submission to the Sultan of Kuala Terengganu Omar.
Accepting the canonization of Siam Rama I this time, for Zhang Chaoronglai, it is just one more thigh to choose from, and it is better to be a chicken head than a phoenix tail! He didn't feel like he had made a mistake.
And Ye Kai, who has not yet had the capital to turn his face with Rama I, can only think of other ways, and letting Zhang Chaorong enter the local meeting is one way.
Didn't Rama I use the Siamese-style official system to pull Zhang Chaorong away? Ye Kai used the Chinese-style system of respect and inferiority, and then pulled Zhang Chaorong over!
The most common meeting in Guangdong and Fujian is Ye Kai's best choice.
"Uncle! I think it's better for you to join, we Nanyanghua have to work together and keep warm, Uncle Zhang doesn't join, does he want to go it alone regardless of local friendship?
I can't let my father hear this, otherwise he will definitely think about it, a few days ago, he was going to bring Chonghan, the son of the head of the Liu family, to his side to do the book! Ye Kai looked at Zhang Chaorong with a smile and said.
Vile! Zhang Chaorong's pupils shrank, the Liu family is the second largest family after the Zhang family in Kuala Terengganu, and Liu Chonghan, the son of the head of the Liu family, is the most outstanding person in the next generation of Kuala Terengganu.
Liu Chonghan has been smart since childhood, young and old, able to write and martial arts, is Zhang Chaorong's key training object, in history, Liu Chonghan is the next Kuala Terengganu Jiabidan!
Recalling the consistent style of Ye Fulai's old coin, Zhang Chaorong decided to go back and be good with the head of the Liu family, how could they Fujian people go to make a book for Ye Fatzi, a Cantonese man!
Thinking of this, the smile on Zhang Chaorong's face disappeared, and he stood up and arched his hand businesslikely, "Virtuous nephew! I still have a lot of things to do in Terengganu, and there are many troubles everywhere in Kemaman Port, so let me go back and think about it first and discuss it with the family heads, and then answer you? ”
"Good! For such a big event, my uncle needs to discuss it with everyone, and my nephew will not be far away! ”
Zhang Chaorong's face was happy, he didn't expect Ye Kai to be so coaxing, what to go back to discuss, it would be strange if he could have a result when he returned to Kuala Terengganu!
"But there's one thing, I have to give my uncle!" Zhang Chaorong was about to leave, but Ye Kai spoke again!
"Virtuous nephew, please! I have nothing to say to my uncle! ”
"Nephew, I'm going to Europa soon, and this famous big brother also wants to see it, and I've already agreed!"
Zhang Chaorong was stunned for a moment, his eldest son Zhang Shengming is one of his several unsuccessful sons, which is still of some cultivation value, and he can barely see it in a pile of crooked melons and cracked dates.
Zhang Chaorong has always put a lot of effort into his son, although he knows that his son may not be able to be the next Jiapitan, but it is still possible to cultivate and keep the country he has laid for the Zhang family.
From Pattani to Europa, what should I do if I have an accident? And if he stays by Ye Kai's side, won't he become a hostage!
"Such a big thing, why doesn't the old man know, where is this rebel? I'm going to ask him clearly, how dare he make his own decisions! ”
Zhang Chaorong looked very angry, Ye Kai nodded at Ah Shan, Ah Shan opened the curtain at the door of the tent, and Zhang Shengming walked in by himself.
"You brute, how dare you not discuss such a big matter with Lao Tzu, you, did you agree on impulse?"
Zhang Chaorong rushed to the son who walked in with a hammer, but he kept blinking his eyes while hammering!
Zhang Shengming's neck stiffened, and his eyes widened, "I've grown up, I can call the shots in this matter, I don't have any impulses, I just want to go and see!" ”
"You and him #......" Zhang Chaorong was so angry that he was dizzy for a while, and all kinds of stimulating words shot out, and at first glance it was old fragrance!
"Uncle! Why be angry, this famous brother has great ambitions, and it is a good thing that he wants to go with me to Europa to see the world! Ye Kai opened his mouth awkwardly.
Zhang Chaorong's son is actually a partial talent, he doesn't like to learn literature, he doesn't have the perseverance to learn martial arts, and he is not endowed with business, but he has a strong interest in firearms and so on, and he is a standard industrial dog.
He only messed with Ye Kai for a few times, and he was fascinated by the novel future industrial concepts in Ye Kai's mouth, such as steam engines, steam hammers, etc., it was really not Ye Kai who was fooling, it was indeed Zhang Shengming crying and shouting that he wanted to go to Europe with Ye Kai.
Zhang Chaorong glared at Ye Kai hatefully, and angrily taught his son a lesson, but no matter what he did, Zhang Shengming just didn't buy it, and he was determined to go to Europe with Ye Kai.
Ye Kai didn't care about Zhang Chaorong for the time being, but looked at He Xiwen, after sobering up, He Xiwen looked depressed, he didn't get anything this time except for the title of a righteous brother.
Not only that, but when he was drinking yesterday, he impulsively promised to send another two hundred elites to Ye Fulai, as his junior's filial piety to his elders.
Okay! The sword and shield hand that I wanted to pull back didn't take it away, but I also took two hundred people on board, which was really a loss to my grandmother's house.
Of course, Ye Kai knew how depressed this freshly baked brother was, and at this time, he should get some benefits for He Xiwen, otherwise just the name of a sworn brother would not be able to tie up this old Jianghu.
Although he can't turn his face with Ye Kai now, but people will give you a yang and yin disobedience, and the mouth will promise quickly, even if you don't act, you can't help it, right?
Clearing his throat, Ye Kai said to He Xiwen: "Big brother, you are going back to Kunlun Island soon, and there are no good things here for the third brother, but there are still some food and weapons, all of which were seized from the Malays, big brother, don't dislike it!" ”
He Xiwen finally came to zero spirit, it is better to be able to make a little money than not to be old at all, Ah Shan handed over a list in a timely manner, and He Xiwen hurriedly took it and took a look.
500 old-fashioned arquebuses, 200 flintlock pistols, 20,000 catties of high-grade gunpowder, 100,000 rounds of lead, 300,000 catties of grain, 200 pieces of silk cloth, and 3,000 various farm tools, all of which He Xiwen needed most.
The smile finally returned to the face of the local association boss who held 10,000 elite soldiers, "The third brother really has a heart, then I will be disrespectful to these things, big brother!" ”
"This is what the eldest brother deserves, we are brothers who cut off the head of the chicken and burn the yellow paper, and there are big things waiting for you and my brother to do!
And these are just given to the eldest brother this time, from this month onwards, the eldest brother can also discuss with my third uncle Ye Fulai, and in the future, a batch of materials can be transferred from the Longsheng every two months, how about we limit it to three thousand taels? ”
This is equivalent to He Xiwen's military salary, not only to make this righteous brother feel comfortable, but also to tell He Xiwen's poor soldiers in disguise that it is beneficial to mix with the Ye family.
He Xiwen was overjoyed here, but Zhang Chaorong was crying with a sad face, no matter what he did, his son Zhang Shengming was the king of the eight pounds, and he must follow Ye Kai to Europe.
There was no way, Zhang Chaorong could only come over to Ye Kai again, "Virtuous nephew, what kind of charter is your entry into the ground?"
Uncle I thought about it, I am a Nanyang Chinese, when the relics are righteous, we Chinese still have to form a group! "That fat fat face has a look of urgency and righteousness!
