Chapter 171: The Mi Family's Fleet

As he spoke, the man took out a bag or two from his bosom, and the bag was bulging as if it were full of things.

Without thinking about it, Liu Zheng could guess that what was contained here should be some broken gold.

Looking at the size, the added value is probably less than 10 taels.

Compared with the whole ship's cargo, the money in the two bags he took out was not worth mentioning.

And Liu Zheng already knew that he would say this, and he also knew that the other party would pay some money to make points, these people have been in this water area for so long, so they naturally know some etiquette.

After all, at the very beginning, Liu Zheng had already figured out that these fleets were covered by Zu Lang.

And what Liu Zheng wanted to grab was the fleet under Zu Lang's command.

Liu Zheng interrupted the man before he finished speaking.

"Hmph, what is Zu Lang, what we robbed is Zu Lang, let alone Zu Lang, even if it is Yan Baihu, sooner or later it will be swallowed up by our two brothers!"

Liu Zheng deliberately put the words two brothers in a heavy tone, wanting to make the other party understand. They are two brothers, and the two naturally refer to Jiang Er's thief.

Liu Zheng's words immediately made the man dare not continue to speak, just stood aside and trembled, although they often sail in this water, but the water thieves they encounter are more or less just ordinary water thieves, after reporting the name of Zulang, they will also give a little face, and they will leave with some benefits.

And Liu Zheng didn't take the bag from him at all, which let this person know that these people didn't come to ask him for a little favor at all, but really wanted to rob them of their entire ship.

When encountering this kind of thing, the leader was also witty, and did not make any fights and justifications with Liu Zheng and the others, but just stretched out his hand to signal the boatmen behind him, asking them not to act rashly.

Then let Liu Zheng lead people to start unloading the things on the ship.

Watching Liu Zheng's men and horses constantly moving the goods on this ship, the expression on the face of the leader was not good-looking. For the time being, he didn't say a word from beginning to end.

And Liu Zheng watched Gan Ning lead people to start moving and unloading goods here, and suddenly remembered that this person just now said that they seemed to be from the Mi family in Xuzhou.

Speaking of the Mi family, Liu Zheng naturally immediately thought of Mi Zhu, who followed Liu Bei to fight in the south and the north and gave Liu Bei great help.

After all, in Liu Zheng's impression, in the entire Three Kingdoms, only the Mi Zhu family is the surname Mi.

There may be other people with this surname, but those who have a head and a face and can leave a lot of fame in history should only be the Mi family brothers and sisters.

In Liu Zheng's impression, the Mi family is indeed a merchant family.

Coincidentally, it is possible that the fleet he robbed is the fleet of the Mi family in Xuzhou.

"What's your name?"

Liu Zheng suddenly looked at the leader coldly and asked him.

The man looked stunned, frowned, and looked at Liu Zheng, although he didn't know what Liu Zheng meant by asking his name at this time, he still answered immediately.

"Villain Mi Fang."

Mi Fang?!

When Liu Zheng heard this person say that his name was Mi Fang, he immediately looked stunned.

Sure enough, as he thought in his heart, this Mi family fleet was the Mi family, a wealthy businessman in Xuzhou who followed Liu Bei in history and gave Liu Bei great support.

And Mi Fang, this guy, is still a little famous in history, it seems to be Mi Zhu's younger brother, it can be said that Guan Yu also died because of him.

When Liu Bei was called the king of Hanzhong, Mi Fang was the Taishou of Nanjun, but was despised by Guan Yu. Later, he was scolded by Guan Yu for failing to complete the task of supplying military funds, and his heart was uneasy. After seeing the general Fu Shiren surrender to Sun Quan, Elfang also chose to surrender to Sun Quan, resulting in Guan Yu's defeat and death.

No wonder, after Liu Zheng brought people on the boat, this Mi Fang showed a greedy appearance of life and fear of death, her legs trembled in fright, and Liu Zheng still carried and unloaded the goods, not saying a word, I was afraid that Liu Zheng and others would kill people.

However, even though Liu Zheng knew that the identities of these people belonged to the Mi family, he would not let go of their cargo because of this, and Liu Zheng did not think about changing his plan. He just asked casually, and didn't continue to say more to this Mi Fang.

When the goods were about to be moved, Liu Zheng hinted at the previously negotiated let a few sailors talk to the side in a whisper.

What they said was nothing more than that this time they ransacked the fleet under Zu Lang's command and made a windfall, and after they returned, the two leaders of Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai would definitely be rewarded.

Because Liu Zheng had already explained before, let them not speak too loudly, and they could not show that they deliberately revealed the news to these boatmen.

After making sure that these people heard these plans of Liu Zheng's subordinates, Liu Zheng and his people also moved almost the goods on the ship.

immediately asked Gan Ning and the others to evacuate from here with their own men and horses.

The whole process went smoothly, and there were no waves, so the Mi family's boat was detained and the goods on it were all moved.

Liu Zhengming, Gan Ning and others returned to Mingyue Cottage with these goods. At the same time, it will stop for a few days and wait for this matter to ferment.

After Liu Zheng and Gan Ning led people to stop in Mingyue Mountain for four or five days, they didn't hear any big waves, but they didn't give up, but continued to send people around to find out the news.

Maybe a merchant ship was robbed and couldn't attract Zu Lang's attention, so rob a few more, Gan Ning's men and horses continued to wander in the waters of Poyang, and once they found that Zu Lang's ships passed by here, they continued to take it.

In the next half a month, Liu Zheng and Gan Ning cooperated to snatch four waves of fleets in a row.

The goods looted by these four waves of fleets together were much more than the goods that Yuan Zhou had lost at the beginning. If it weren't for Liu Zheng, he didn't plan to make a living by plundering merchant ships in the first place, he really wanted to be a water thief in the waters of Poyang.

This kind of speed of directly relying on looting to obtain resources is too fast and addictive.

It is precisely because Liu Zheng has his own bottom line that he doesn't want to make a living by plundering these fleets, so he didn't move the goods in the four waves of ships that have been looted in the past half a month, but temporarily stored all these goods in Mingyue Cottage. When Jiang Er's thief is solved in the future, Liu Zheng will return the goods to those merchants.

After all, every time he robbed, he would ask where these merchant ships were and which family's belonged to.

Liu Zheng is very clear about these goods, and he only needs to send someone to return these goods when the time comes.

Half a month passed quickly, and the water thieves who were wandering in the waters of Poyang Lake often committed crimes, and they singled out the fleet under Zu Lang's command, which naturally attracted Zu Lang's attention.
