Chapter 230: Purchase of Flammable Materials

Seeing that Xusheng was honest, Chen Zheng opened his mouth to educate: "You have to remember that life is precious, and at all times, safety comes first." ”

"Understood, Brother Chen." Asahi agreed.

Chen Zheng didn't know if Xusheng really understood or pretended to understand, but it didn't matter.

The important thing is that Xusheng can listen to his own words, and that is enough.

In this day and age, there are people who don't care much about life.

Some people don't care much about their own lives, and some people don't care much about other people's lives.

Some people take risks and put themselves at risk in order to have a full meal tomorrow.

There are also some people, for their own sake or to achieve certain goals, and they don't care about the lives of others at all.

Just like Yu Qizheng just now, his task or purpose is just to protect the prince, even if Dongyang County is slaughtered by bandits, it doesn't seem to have anything to do with him.

And Chen Zheng is different, his experience and education do not allow him to ignore life, even if this life is very lowly in this era.

Therefore, Chen Zheng formulated a plan for the invasion of the bandits, the purpose of which was to ensure the safety of the lives of the people in Dongyang County to the greatest extent.

For example, this Xusheng's parents met pirates when they went to sea and were killed.

At that time, Xusheng was just twelve or thirteen years old, and his sister Shanshan was only five or six years old.

Chen Zheng doesn't want to see another child lose his parents; Then there is the old man who lost his son; Then there is a young daughter-in-law who loses her husband and cheapens others.

patted Xusheng on the shoulder, Chen Zheng sighed: "Don't open your mouth and close your mouth and die, die, think about your sister, what will she do if you die?" ”

Saying this, Xu Sheng understood and nodded: "Brother Chen is right, what should I do?" ”

"Your mission is important!" Chen Zheng said.

Seeing that Chen Zheng said solemnly, Xusheng didn't dare to slack off, so he quickly stood up and listened.

Chen Zheng said to Xusheng: "You are the last link here, if you want to take revenge, you have to be calm." ”

As soon as he heard that he could take revenge, Xu Sheng came to his senses and said, "Brother Chen, don't worry, I won't be impulsive anymore." ”

Chen Zheng nodded and said? "Do you have any rafts other than sea boats?" ”

"Little raft?" Xu Sheng was stunned, "I really don't have a small raft here." ”

Chen Zheng frowned and said, "I heard that many of you people from Coral Island have come to settle in Dongyang County?" ”

Xu Sheng nodded and said, "Yes, they heard that life here is very good, and they have basically moved here." ”

"That's great, let's organize them to make a small raft today, the more the better!" Chen Zhengdao, "Money is not a problem, I will buy the raft." ”

The people on Coral Island have grown up by the sea since they were children, and they have no other skills, but they have a lot of skills in raft fishing.

Xu Sheng couldn't figure it out and asked, "Brother Chen, what is the use of making a small raft?" ”

"Didn't I just tell you? I'm going to use fire to deal with the pirates. Chen Zhengdao.

Xu Sheng smiled a little embarrassedly, and said, "Brother Chen, I can only fish, but I can't march to fight, I don't understand the fire attack plan you said." ”

"According to my design, after the bandits fail to land on the beach, they will inevitably flee from the port to the sea, at this time, you lead a team of people to rush to the side of the pirates' boat with a small raft, and then ignite the flammable materials on the raft and set their boat on fire, you can burn those fleeing pirates!" Chen Zheng explained.

Xu Sheng didn't understand much, but when he heard that the pirates were burned, his spirits suddenly lifted up, and he nodded heavily, and said, "Brother Chen, don't worry, as long as I tell them that they want to kill the pirates, they will definitely be obliged." ”

"Tell them to, but don't spread the news of the bandit invasion so as not to cause panic." Chen Zheng instructed.

Xusheng nodded and said, "Don't worry, the people on our island won't talk nonsense." ”

Chen Zheng was very relieved about this, so he didn't say anything more, he also had to go to the city to purchase flammable materials, such as: velvet, cotton wool and other materials.

Seeing that Chen was about to leave, Xusheng suddenly remembered a question, so he asked, "Brother Chen, why didn't you drive the raft over and burn the bandits when they entered the port?" ”

Chen Zheng turned around, looked at Xu Sheng, and said, "We must despise the enemy strategically, but we must attach importance to the enemy tactically. Although the pirates are a rabble, their equipment is quite sophisticated, and they are also very fierce. ”

Xu Sheng nodded and said, "I see! ”

Chen Zheng took two steps forward, turned around, and said to Xu Sheng: "Actually, there is a saying that can explain why they were setting fire to them when they fled. ”

"What kind of saying, Brother Chen taught me." Xusheng said very modestly.

Chen Zheng smiled and said, "This saying is 'beat the dog behind closed doors', understand?" ”

"Oh, Brother Chen, you said that earlier, don't I understand?" Xusheng said happily.

"Let's go, don't delay." Chen Zheng urged.

Seeing Xu Sheng go to greet the people of Coral Island, Chen Zheng left the harbor.

I originally wanted to find a car to go back, but it was really hard to find here, so Chen Zheng wrote down the matter, and when he repelled the bandits, he met a car dealer here in the harbor, and there must be a lot of people who rented a car to travel back and forth between the city and the harbor.

It seems to be another lucrative business.

Temporarily pressing this money-making business plan in his heart, Chen Zheng returned to Dongyang County step by step.

As soon as he returned to the city, Chen Zheng went to the largest grocery store in the city.

This grocery store is called Baijiahui, the guy looked up, saw Chen Zheng coming in, startled, hurriedly greeted well, and then went to the back hall to call the shopkeeper out.

Chen Zheng is now also regarded as a man of the year in Dongyang County, aside from his achievements in disaster relief, his own carpentry workshop alone is famous far and wide.

Not to mention, on behalf of Dongyang County, he went to Kyoto to pay tribute to sea whalebones, which is someone who has seen the emperor.

It didn't take long for Liu Yanjun, the shopkeeper of Baijiahui, to walk out and arch his hand at Chen Zheng: "Oh, Master Chen is here, and our store is shining." ”

"Shopkeeper Liu is polite, there is a need for Baijiahui in the next place." Chen Zheng said straight to the point.

Liu Yanjun nodded and said, "It's rare for Master Chen to come in person, what do you like about the goods here, even if you open your mouth, they will all be discounted." ”

"Then thank you to Shopkeeper Liu." Chen Zheng thanked him, "What you need is flammable items such as velvet, cotton, saltpeter, etc., I don't know if Shopkeeper Liu has it here?" How many? ”

Liu Yanjun was stunned for a moment, and asked rhetorically: "I remember that Master Chen opened a carpentry workshop, you buy so many flammable materials, aren't you afraid of going to water?" ”
