Chapter 139: Five Pillars

Since Zheng Zhilong took office, this is the first time that the two have met. After entering the city wall gate, the carriage pulled over, and everyone dismounted and walked to the direction of the palace, which was where Li Dan usually lived.

Yin Mo said to Li Jian: "I want to go and say a few words to Zheng Zhilong, what do you think?" ”

Li Jian said respectfully: "Seniors, please take care of yourself, why do you need to inform such a trivial matter." ”

Yin Mole stood in place, and only when Zheng Zhilong stepped forward did he regain his pace, and when everyone walked forward, Yin Mole whispered: "I saw Bai Sha and Qiu Tian before entering the city just now. ”

Zheng Zhilong nodded expressionlessly, and then replied, "I know." ”

On the surface, he was not alarmed, but in fact, Zheng Zhilong's heart had already set off huge waves, he didn't expect that Bai Sha had run to the boundary of Luzon, he was now thinking the same as Bai Sha in his heart, he wanted to talk to each other, otherwise they were obviously very close, but they didn't understand each other, and it would be bad to cause unnecessary misunderstandings when the time came.

Zheng Zhilong was afraid that others would overhear the two of them, so he didn't continue to talk about Baisha, but said: "I don't know what we called here this time, how do I feel that I have to be summoned once every three days." ”

Yin Mo sneered and said: "This is called a pie, just like the Ming Dynasty has an early dynasty every day, Li Dan is the emperor of the soil, and he is imitating all the time, but it's a pity that the tiger is not an anti-dog, and Dong Shi is just following suit." ”

Zheng Zhilong just smiled, didn't say anything, and kept up with the ranks of the big army.

Today's palace is different, the chairs on both sides are finally not empty, according to the requirements, everyone is sitting in their own position, and the position of everyone today has changed, Li Dan sits high on the steps, wearing a python suit, and the momentum is compelling. On the two rows of chairs below, Li Jian on the left sat at the beginning, followed by Zheng Zhilong, and Li Xin, the "Minister of Finance" who had met Zheng Zhilong before, sat behind Zheng Zhilong, but the other party didn't seem to be a little dissatisfied, and he was smiling. Sitting opposite, that is, the person on the right, Zheng Zhilong, doesn't know him, but the person sitting in the first place opposite is not a good character at first glance, and his face is full of murderous aura, it should be Li Yan who is in charge of the army.

Everyone sat down one after another, and their eyes were inadvertently looking at Zheng Zhilong and Yin Mole, wondering why the two of them were able to achieve this position?

The palace was quiet, Li Dan didn't smile today, and said slowly: "Li Yan rushed back today, take this opportunity to gather everyone together and exchange ideas about the problems that exist in the near future, Li Yan, you talk first." ”

Li Yan stood up from his position, bowed to Li Dan and hugged his fists, and said slowly: "Manila's side has been moving frequently during this time, and our people have been secretly killed by the other party, but we don't suffer losses, we have also killed a lot of devils, but now we are in a state of restraint, just need an order from the adult, I promise to let the devils go around without eating." ”

Li Dan looked at Li Yan below and said: "You are still the same as before, you have a hot temper, you have dealt with the Spaniards the most, and you are the person who knows them best, you should know that the power of the Spaniards is not the same as before." Okay, you stand down first, remember, you must refrain from acting rashly without my orders. ”

Li Yan clenched his fists and retreated, returning to his place and sitting down.

Li Dan pointed at Zheng Zhilong, and then said: "There is one more thing to announce today, that is, Li Yao, who was in charge of the intelligence network before, will deal with other things, and now Li Yao's position will be taken over by Zheng Zhilong, and you will have to communicate more with each other in the future." ”

Immediately, everyone began to whisper, and Li Dan also gave them this time to discuss, and after everyone quieted down, Li Dan continued: "There is another one, that is, the one next to Jian'er, his name is Yin Mole. Everyone should have heard about the dock some time ago, that's right, he was the fierce man who killed more than a dozen people with smooth meridians all over his body with the power of one blow. ”

Li Yan couldn't help but stand up and said with interest: "It turns out that you are Yin Mole, have a chance to fight?" ”

"Stand down, don't be rude." Li Dan scolded.

Li Yan licked his lips and retreated to his position, but his eyes were hot when he looked at Yin Mole, and even the previous Zheng Zhilong was temporarily put aside by him, although he was shocked that Zheng Zhilong suddenly took Li Yao's position, but this actually didn't have much impact on him, but he was very interested in Yin Mole, Li Yan was originally an aggressive person.

Li Jian stood up and said, "Brother Li Yan, now that Senior Yin Mo is teaching me to cultivate, don't keep an eye on your seniors." ”

Li Yan smiled and nodded, not knowing if he really stopped there.

Li Dan has five pillars of gold, wood, water, fire and earth, and Li Yan is the only one who can make Li Jian call his eldest brother, the two grew up together since childhood, Li Yan is actually not a few years older than him, but his talent is terrifying, Li Dan also trusts him very much, otherwise he would not hand over the army to him.

"Li Miao, tell me about the situation over there." Li Dan said.

Li Miao stood up, just like Li Yan, and said after the salute: "My lord, we are now actively negotiating with the Spaniards, and there is still some effect, but the other party's purpose is already obvious, they want to set foot in the chassis of Luzon to find gold mines. As for the Ming court, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, and Japan, everything is normal, and we are also communicating privately. ”

Li Miao is equivalent to a foreign minister, responsible for dealing with external forces, and he is clever and eloquent.

Li Dan nodded and said, "Just follow the original plan, and you must not be in a hurry when dealing with the Spaniards." Li Xin's silver turnover is not in a hurry, which everyone can feel, so I won't say more. But I know that none of you have any private money on weekdays, so don't pretend to be poor in front of me, especially Li Sen, you are responsible for ships going to sea and shipbuilding, and you are the most powerful in filling your private pockets on weekdays, so step up shipbuilding, don't continue to chase Li Xin for money! ”

Speaking of which, Li Sen said with interest: "My lord, isn't it just for this moment that I enrich my private pockets on weekdays, and now I will definitely take out all my family resources and go all out to build ships!" ”

Li Dan snorted coldly, she didn't believe it at all, she knew very well about the character and temper of each of these subordinates, and no one's small actions could hide from his eyes, so Li Dan named him slightly, and Li Sen immediately admitted it.

Li Dan asked everyone to take out their savings first, so that they could turn over the silver in a short time, but it was always impossible in the long run, so it was urgent to quickly recall the robbed silver.

Bai Sha originally thought that the wanton looting of the strongholds under Li Dan's forces should be a drizzle and painless action for Li Dan, but he didn't expect that his approach would almost cut off Li Dan's silver turnover, which he didn't expect in advance.

Bai Sha only grabbed the silver, and never cared about the amount of silver. Li Dan's side also miscalculated, originally thinking that the period of handing over the silver for half a year was coming soon, so he used the other silver elsewhere, but he didn't expect an accident to suddenly happen at this time.

It's just that now Zheng Zhilong has blamed this matter on the man in black, which makes Li Dan feel a little tricky.

Li Dan sighed and said: "There has been a change in the place we are in charge of, the Spaniards in the south are restless, but at this time, a group of black-clothed people appeared out of nowhere to rob the stronghold below us. I have already arranged for Zheng Zhilong to investigate this matter with all his might, once there is an eyebrow, Li Yan here hurriedly dispatched manpower to prepare for the battle, the things involved are not closely cooperated by the five of you, now this batch of silver is very important to us, of course, we can't let the people in black act recklessly, this kind of sudden strength, see one to destroy the other, we must not let them become bigger. ”

"And one last thing, it's about White Sands." Li Dan said.

Speaking of Baisha, many people are not familiar with it, but the three people sitting next to Li Jian are very familiar, and several of them cheered up.

Li Dan looked in the direction of several people and said: "This matter is in charge of Jian'er, assisted by Zheng Zhilong, as soon as there is any news, arrest him and bring him to me." In particular, Jian'er must remember that you can't be rash, you must bring it in front of me! ”

Li Jian hugged his fists in response, and then the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise slightly, bring it back? Don't even think about it. In his opinion, Bai Sha must die, even if it is cut first and then played, and he will not hesitate to receive a severe punishment when the time comes, and now this matter is once again in charge of him, for him, it is enough.

Yin Mole was silent, Zheng Zhilong was a little worried, but he didn't show it, he and Bai Sha had long been brothers, but now he had to assist Li Jian to capture Bai Sha, before entering the palace, Yin Mole told him that Bai Sha had appeared in Luzon.

Zheng Zhilong will definitely investigate Bai Sha, because he has to do this if he wants to talk to Bai Sha, but now that he is in charge of the intelligence network, he has limited time, and he doesn't know if there is a dish placed by Li Jian here, and it will not be good to let the other party find Bai Sha from his front when the time comes.

Zheng Zhilong didn't want Li Jian to find Bai Sha, nor did he want Bai Sha to be brought to Li Dan, because Zheng Zhilong knew that Bai Sha would not give in, and when the time came, there would be only one way to resist and die. Zheng Zhilong secretly thought in his heart that he must meet with Baisha first, and it is best to let the other party evacuate Luzon first......

Li Dan spoke again, interrupting Zheng Zhilong's thoughts.

"It's rare for everyone to get together, and let's eat together today." Li Dan said.

After Li Dan finished speaking, he took the lead to leave, and the people who are here now are all old acquaintances, and they will not feel angry. If you want to avoid everyone, Zheng Zhilong and Yin Mole, who are newcomers, are responsible for being led by Li Jian.

Yin Mo walked side by side with Li Jian, and couldn't help but say, "I'm glad that you are also a little restrained, don't laugh too rampantly." ”

Li Jian smiled: "Senior, didn't you say that I and Baisha will have a battle sooner or later, I believe that I will come back soon." ”

Zheng Zhilong was confused when he heard it, why did Yin Mole's predecessor say that there would be a fight between Bai Sha and Li Jian?

Zheng Zhilong began to find that there were more and more things he couldn't understand.
