Chapter 64: Inquiry

After half a stick of incense.

The big shipowner suddenly stood up from the official hat chair, and a trace of fierceness appeared on his face: "The owner, according to the current situation. ”

"We can only do two things and kill that Western merchant first."

After thinking about it, the only way to solve the current crisis is to become a Western businessman first.

It's not difficult to kill a Western merchant, but this Western merchant Shenlong can't see the head and the end, and no one knows where he is now.

When the shipowner heard this, he pulled his legs and walked out: "The owner is waiting here, and Lao Tzu will go and call the brothers over." ”

"Don't wait until the evening, let's go to Yanchi Village now and kill Wang Changmu's entire family."

Before the three shipowners could go out, they were stopped by the big shipowner who made this suggestion, and said with a frown: "It's such an impulse again." ”

"You have to change your temperament, and there have been many bad things over the years because of your impulsiveness."

"Kill Wang Changmu's whole family? There's a fart. ”

The three shipowners are usually not very convinced by the big shipowners, and they have always wanted to sit in the position of the big shipowners.

I wanted to perform well today, but I didn't say a word yet, and I was reprimanded by the big shipowner like a grandson.

The faces of the three shipowners were a little unbearable, and they glared back at the big shipowners, ready to return the reprimand.

Cao Kou waved his hand, signaling the two of them to stop intriguing at this time: "The big shipowner is right. ”

"There is no use in killing the Wang family, the Wang family is just a puppet of that Western merchant."

"Let's kill Wang Changmu's family today, and tomorrow there will be the Li family and the Zhang family."

"There aren't many others in Yu'er Town, it's just that these poor ancestral halls grab a lot of them."

"The only way to solve this matter is to find a Western merchant."

Western merchants are not ancestral halls in the countryside, there are ancestral graves buried in the fields, even if the family is ruined, they will not leave their own one-third of an acre.

Western merchants originally came to Daming from the far west, and they didn't even have a root, and where did they go to find traces of Western merchants.

Caokou understood this, and after Zheng Chuandong said the low price of two dollars and five cents of silver, he felt that the trickiness of this matter made him a little helpless.

No matter how tricky it is, you have to come up with a solution quickly, otherwise the Caokou family will be killed by the Black Island Pirates.

The second shipowner, who had not spoken, suddenly said: "The owner, or ......"

The second shipowner was halfway through his words, glanced at the other three people who were watching him, gritted his teeth and continued: "Otherwise, we will get out of here for a while." ”

"After a few months, the Western merchant will not be able to support the cotton cloth trade that is pressed on the cost line, as long as he adjusts the price of silver back, we will be able to come back."

The three shipowners nodded, he was still shouting about killing people just now, and he didn't feel embarrassed at all.

On the contrary, he felt that this act of escaping was very reasonable, and kept nodding: "This is also a good way." ”

Who knows, just when the second shipowner said this sentence and the third shipowner agreed, Caokou's face gradually lost any expression.

The big shipowner's afterglow just swept the expressionless face on Caokou's face, and his heart trembled, knowing that Caokou was moving with murderous intentions.

This murderous intent was not aimed at Western merchants, but at the second and third shipowners.

The big shipowner usually deliberately made a lot of discord with the second shipowner and the third shipowner, and even some enemies were very angry when they saw each other, the purpose was to make Caokou feel at ease with him.

Only the shipowner under his hand fights all day long, Caokou, the owner, can rest assured that the people under his hand will not collude to deal with him together.

Although the big shipowner felt ridiculous about the ideas of the second shipowner and the third shipowner, and there have been many contradictions over the years, he was the one who did not want the second shipowner and the third shipowner to have an accident.

The big shipowner hurriedly scolded: "Our ancestral graves are here, want to run?" ”

"What if those Black Island pirates, who can do anything, dig up our ancestral graves and force us to come back?"

The second shipowner and the third shipowner are not usually the same thing, and they all stopped talking when they heard that the ancestral grave was dug up.

The two of them could die at the hands of the Black Island Pirates, but the ancestral grave of the family could not be dug up.

Discussion came and went, but it became more and more bad, and there was no way to come up with a useful solution.

has already moved the murderous mouth, and now he really wants to slaughter the two shipowners who can only intrigue with the second shipowner and the third shipowner.

However, now is the time to employ people, and they have to be kept to deal with Western merchants and Black Island pirates.

Even if you want to slaughter the two of them, you have to wait until this matter is over.

Since he couldn't think of any other way, Caokou could only use the most clumsy method: "Big shipowner, you should immediately send someone to the workshop in Yanchi Village to inquire about the situation." ”

"First of all, I want to inquire if the Western businessman is in Yanchi Village, and if he is not in Yanchi Village, he will go to Yanchi Village on the day of every month."

"If this news can't be found, then let people go to the workshop in Yanchi Village to take a look around and see how much the workshop occupies."

When the big shipowner heard Caokou's words, he roughly understood what he meant.

The quickest way to solve this problem now is to kill the Western merchant outright.

If you can't find a Western merchant in a short time, Caokou can only smash silver.

Throw out a large amount of cotton cloth with a silver price lower than two and a half cents of silver, and settle the matter first.

Silver is very important, no matter how important it is, it is not as important as life.

The big shipowner nodded solemnly: "It just so happens that one of our slender men is the brother of a woman in Yanchi Village. ”

"This arranged for the slender man to inquire about the situation, and the woman didn't know that we sent the slender man over, let alone that we had our calculations here."

"I must be able to easily inquire about the news I want, and Caokou should not worry too much about this matter in the past two days."

Cao Kou heard that the slender man under his hand had a kinship relationship with Yanchi Village, and it was really a lot easier.

Caokou hurriedly waved his hand, signaling the big shipowner to hurry up and arrange the slender man over as quickly as possible.

After the big shipowner said this, he had already stood up.

Seeing Caokou's movement of waving his hand, he arched his hand and immediately walked out of the door.

When I came to the outside of the house, I found a slender man who was working on a spinning woman in a cotton workshop.

If this had been done before, the big shipowner would have whipped it with a stick.

Today, he doesn't care about this matter, as long as he can get this done, he can reward the spinning woman to him.

When the slender man heard the big shipowner's arrangement, he slapped his chest loudly: "The big shipowner, please okay, the villain must have done this." ”
