Chapter 164: Jiangkou Pirate Banner (Second Update, Ask for Subscription)
As for whether it is or not, Zhu Guoqiang knows it in his heart, but those people don't know. They only know one thing - the prince is going to kill!
But it's too late to say anything now, what if this prince really uses an excuse to kill?
Impeachment?
If there are more lice, it doesn't worry people.
This prince's soldiers have even shouted "long live", and they have all crossed this kind of place, what else is he afraid of?
High walls in the middle capital?
At least before he goes inside the wall, he can always kill the big guy first!
No one will doubt that he will not dare to kill!
Those who dare to doubt have already fallen to the ground!
For a while, the cabin was full of pleading, but Zhu Guoqiang still looked at the woman in front of him with a smile, looking at her expression of mixed anger, and watching the change of expression on her beautiful face, his left hand had already been raised.
What will happen if the left hand falls?
Thinking of the ironclad guards beside the prince, Zheng Yuanxun's mind immediately appeared with a picture of a river of blood. Frightened, his face turned pale, and he hurriedly said to the woman in white with a knife.
"Girl, you, look ......"
Picking up the knife, the woman who originally wanted to commit suicide with a knife stared at this ridiculous prince with angry eyes, when she first saw him, she still had a lot of good feelings in her heart, and felt that this person was a big hero who stood up to the sky, but now his image has plummeted!
Is this the so-called "hero"?
"You, you, why do you deceive people so much......
With tears flashing in her eyes, she stared at the smiling man, and at the moment when the tears flowed, her right hand was released, and the knife fell to the ground, and she said in a very low voice.
"Little, the little girl is from you, also, please calm the anger of the prince!"
Seeing that she had succumbed, Zhu Guoqiang, who was pressing for the first time, was quite proud in his heart. When she walked slowly, bent her knees on the table to pour herself wine, breathing in the faint fragrance emanating from her body, Zhu Guoqiang smiled, and when he raised his head, he saw the charming woman looking at him directly, and said.
"Wang Zhi, send the two girls to my tent first."
"Yikes!"
She looked at the man with wide eyes, but as soon as she raised her head to meet the gaze of the previous prince, in an instant, she had no idea, and just responded in fear.
When they were sent off the painting boat, Zhu Guoqiang looked around at the people in the painting boat, and saw that everyone's expressions were extremely unnatural
"I don't like people to disagree with me, for the things I like, either get her, or ruin him, you say that's the truth?"
"The world, what the prince said is very ......"
Everyone nervously agreed, how did a good feast become like this?
"That's it, that's it, Chunxiao is short, I will receive the intention of Chaozong, and I will see it here today!"
Just when Zhu Guoqiang was about to leave, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, I saw him suddenly pause and look back at everyone and say.
"By the way, I seem to have heard someone say that they want to donate money? I wonder how much you are going to subsidize? ”
Everyone was stunned, the eight major salt merchants of the Salt Merchants Association, you look at me, I look at you, in fact, a few days ago, they had already taken out 100,000 taels of silver, as well as tens of thousands of stone of grain, and now this lord wants silver again. How much does he want?
"I, we are willing to give 500,000 taels of silver."
"Oh!"
Turning around, Zhu Guoqiang looked at everyone, his eyes narrowed, and he looked at everyone.
"It's only 500,000 taels!"
Suddenly, Zhu Guoqiang smiled and smiled brightly. Then he said.
"It's 500,000 taels per general merchant! Okay, so I thank you for your generous help, please rest assured, as long as I am here, Dongyu will never dare to offend me Yangzhou! Haha, Chunxiao is short, I won't accompany you, please prepare the silver, don't wait for me to come to the door to urge! ”
After that, ignoring the stunned crowd behind him, he laughed and got off the painting boat, and at the moment when he left the film park and got into the carriage, he smiled Zhu Guoqiang instructed the guards.
"Go to the river!"
……
The "tom, tom" sound from the external propeller sounded, and the boat sailed towards the mouth of the river with Zhu Guoqiang full of thoughts. Under the impetus of the plug-in, the two-masted boat sailed all night, until nearly noon the next day, did not reach the mouth of the river, when the ship arrived at the mouth of the river, Wan Shouqi came out of the cabin, saw the prince in the bow of the ship, he pointed to a sandbar covered with reeds between the sky and the sea in the distance.
"Lord Shizi, you see that is where Li Yingshui Village is located."
"Do you think Li Ying, this person, will really help me in the Northern Expedition?"
Li Ying did not leave any deeds in history, but he was Zheng Zhilong's sworn brother, when he and Yan Siqi and others were married as brothers in Japan on the 28th, and later for various reasons, he led people to Jiangkou and became pirates. And Zheng Zhilong has become the famous "Dragon King of the Fujian Sea".
"The prince doesn't know that Li Ying has long wanted to serve the court, but he has no way."
Wan Shouqi continued.
"His sworn brother Zheng Zhilong has been prosperous in the past few years, how can he not be envious, but Nan Zhili has no Xiong Wencan to recruit him, so he has been suffering from no way, as long as the prince of the world is allowed to be rich and noble, and the official body, he will definitely be willing to join the command of the prince."
Murder and arson!
Being a robber is like being an official.
Zhu Guoqiang laughed at himself in his heart.
"Did that man kill the people?"
"Lord Shizi, Li Ying is a pirate in the mouth of the government, but in fact he is a maritime merchant, he is not afraid of the jokes of the prince of the world, and the place where the ministers know him, also because of business dealings."
"Maritime?"
Zhu Guoqiang was a little puzzled.
"Didn't our Ming Dynasty open the sea ban? How can there be maritime merchants in the name of pirates? ”
"The prince doesn't know, although the imperial court has opened the sea ban, but the maritime merchants are not who want to be the ones, and the maritime merchants are also exploited by the government, so there are private merchants, private ports, Li Ying's Peacock Island is the private port of the Jiangkou, there are no less than 200 large and small sea ships here all the year round, as long as the prince allows him to be rich and noble, he can use Li Ying's ship to transport the troops to Liaodong by sea unknowingly, and go straight to the hinterland of Jiannu!"
It turned out to be a smuggler!
After understanding Li Ying's identity, Zhu Guoqiang said with a smile.
"The most important thing in this matter is secrecy, so I got up, and I was quite sorry for those two girls."
Thinking of the tricks and robberies of them when he was in the Zheng Family Cinema, Zhu Guoqiang couldn't help but sigh, it feels really good, but it is really good to bully two women so much...... There's a sense of conquest, and it's kind of interesting indeed.
But, hey!
In the future, they will always understand.
"Lord Shizi, otherwise, how can you let the outside world think that Lord Shizi is immersed in a gentle country? This is just a show for others to see, presumably the two girls will understand if they know it. ”
Just as the boat approached the sandbank, Zhu Guoqiang saw that the sandbar was full of large and small sea boats, and those boats were fluttering large and small peacock flags, this was Li Ying's Peacock Island......
