Chapter 145: Sitting on the ground and starting the price
"Gan Xingba" of course knew the threat of the Daming Sailors to these pirates after the sea was opened.
But they weren't really afraid!
First of all, the sailor is not built in a day, and when the sailor is built, they pirates are all old, and at that time, no matter how powerful the sailor of the imperial court is, it will be a matter of concern to them and pirates, which should be troubled by the future pirate forces.
As for the pirate power passed down from generation to generation?
Scold! This idea, including Xu Dong, will not be shared by all pirates.
They are all people who live by licking blood from the edge of a knife, and since they entered the pirate industry, they have not thought about the future.
Their attitude towards life is that they can be chic for a day, and they will be chic for a day.
Even if you think about future generations, you will not let future generations be pirates, after all, pirates are thieves after all! And he is also a thief who licks blood on the knife edge and can't see the future!
Inheritance of incense, but this is not how it is inherited.
When they think about future generations, they generally find a piece of land in Southeast Asia, or a certain place in the Ming Dynasty, so that future generations can multiply, and they are not willing to let future generations follow the thieves.
Secondly, as he himself said, the world is very big, even if the sailor can be built quickly, he doesn't believe that the Daming sailor has the ability to spread his power to the ends of the earth, and he will not give them a place for the Xu Dong pirate group.
Therefore, "Gan Xingba" is now a posture of "Lao Tzu is not Xiamen University, Lao Tzu will eat you", condescending and despising Steward Wu.
When Steward Wu saw "Gan Xingba" like this, he also had a toothache.
Before he came, he thought that these pirates were killing billets who didn't know how to use their brains and could only think by force, so "Gan Xingba" was "polite" to him, but he didn't appreciate it, and he opened his mouth to be Lao Tzu.
As a result, he is now in a passive position.
"Boss Gan, make an offer!"
In desperation, Steward Wu had no choice but to soften his tone and let "Gan Xingba" calmly take the initiative to make a bid.
"Lao Tzu doesn't want your money, Lao Tzu only needs a 2,000 sand boat full of Jingdezhen blue and white porcelain."
Sitting on the ground to start the price, of course, you have to have the attitude of sitting on the ground to start the price, "Gan Xingba" calmly quoted a price that made Steward Wu so anxious.
This Steward Wu was indeed jumping in a hurry, he almost jumped up, and then said with a short breath:
"Impossible!"
"Nothing is impossible, it's just this price, you can do it if you like, and if you don't do it, pull it down!"
"Gan Xingba" did not back down at all, clasped his hands in front of his chest, and looked down at Steward Wu.
The attitude of "Gan Xingba" naturally made Steward Wu very dissatisfied, because in Steward Wu's concept, if the Xu Dong Pirate Group did not have the support of their Wu family, it would just be a group of untouchables, how could it have today's prestige.
Therefore, Steward Wu looked down on Xu Dong's pirate group from the bottom of his heart.
Now that the untouchables he looked down on were so condescending and didn't give face at all, the courage of this Wu steward was also raised all of a sudden, and then, he threatened:
"Leader Gan, aren't you worried that we will cut off your sources and channels?"
"You can try."
"Gan Xingba" is not threatened at all, Xu Dong's pirate group is not what it used to be, now, they are the overlords of the southeast coast of the Ming Dynasty, as well as Southeast Asia, the other party has cut off their sources of goods and sales channels, and they can also make the other party's smuggling merchant ships unable to pass in this area.
Moreover, their current sources of goods and sales channels are not only Hui merchants.
"Humph! Do it for yourself! ”
Steward Wu hadn't recognized the reality clearly, and was so despised by "Gan Xingba", and suddenly, he was about to walk away.
Steward Wu walked slowly. Oh, by the way, before I came, I met Li Guangtou's fleet and destroyed five ships of the other party, and Li Guangtou fled in embarrassment, so if you go to find Li Guangtou's people now, I'm afraid you won't find it. ”
The wealthy businessmen of the Ming Dynasty are all human spirits, and they will not bet only on one side, especially for thieves like pirates, so the Xu Dong pirate group is not the only force that the wealthy merchants of the Ming Dynasty support to grow up.
At present, the pirate forces on the southeast coast of the Ming Dynasty are mainly entrenched in the Shuangyu Port off the coast of Ningbo, and there are two major forces in this Shuangyu Port, namely the Xu Dong pirate group supported by Huizhou merchants and the Li Guangtou pirate group supported by Fujian businessmen.
Among them, the Xu Dong Pirate Group and the Li Guangtou Pirate Group both know each other's existence and do not deal with each other, among them, the Xu Dong Pirate Group is much stronger than the Li Guangtou Pirate Group, but the Li Guangtou Pirate Group has many forces behind it, and for a while, the Xu Dong Pirate Group will not be able to destroy each other.
In addition, in fact, the people of Xu Dong's pirate group also know that if they really want to completely destroy the other party, I am afraid that the forces behind them should jump to their feet.
Therefore, the Li Guangtou pirate group can compete with the Xu Dong pirate group in Shuangyu Port.
This time, "Gan Xingba" roughly knew what he was going to do before he came out, so when he met the people of the Li Guangtou Pirate Group, of course, he did not hesitate to hit the other party, so as not to be robbed of business by the other party.
Now, this Steward Wu is leaving, and "Gan Xingba" naturally knows what the other party has in mind, so when Steward Wu is leaving, he slowly told Steward Wu the "bad news", so that the other party's feet that he just raised can't get out.
Steward Wu's raised foot really couldn't get out, he took it back, and then smiled at "Gan Xingba":
"Leader Gan, there is something to discuss."
This Steward Wu has to be cowardly!
Now the imperial court wants to open the sea, although Emperor Hongzhi is very firm, but this matter, now the dark tide is surging, and it may not be possible.
Moreover, the strength of the Ming Dynasty is still weak, if you don't take advantage of the other party's weak strength and are still in their infancy, and don't kill the other party, I'm afraid it will be difficult in the future.
Therefore, he didn't have much time to spend looking for the people of the bald pirate group.
Moreover, this "Gan Xingba" saw through his plan, and he was also worried that when the time came, the people of the Li Guangtou Pirate Group would be dispatched, and the people of the Xu Dong Pirate Group would be bad!
That's it!
So, this time, he could only coax.
This Wu steward was instigated, "Gan Xingba" would not look at it for his sake, and give face to this old dog, "Gan Xingba" held his hands in front of his chest again, and said proudly:
"It's good to discuss, now that Lao Tzu has raised the price, in addition to a 2,000 sand ship full of blue and white porcelain in Jingdezhen, you have to pay us 10,000 taels of military expenses, otherwise, this matter will be discussed."
"This ......"
Steward Wu was stunned, to be precise, he was about to cry urgently, just because as soon as he raised his foot, this "Gan Xingba" raised the price by 10,000 taels unreasonably, which ...... Tell him how to go back to the errand!
He is a housekeeper of Wu, he is a scenery in She County, and he can be regarded as a character, but in fact, he is just a dog fighting people, to put it bluntly, he is also a dog raised by the Wu family!
Now that he has talked about things like this, this time, Wu Shouli, the head of the Wu family, has to peel his skin!
