Chapter 405: Hard-hearted, ruthless, and helpless
Cai Jing can be regarded as becoming Gan Qi's registered disciple. Do you want to really accept Cai Jing to get started, Gan Qi is still ready to hang for a while, everything must have a process of struggle, and with this process, you will know how to cherish it.
If you want to really worship Ganqi, Cai Jing still has a lot of hardships to suffer.
This year is over, some people celebrate the New Year, and some people pass the customs, so there is the word New Year's Pass.
Everything in Quanzhou City has returned to calm, and it is time for Gan Qi to go to the countryside to inspect again, the area under the jurisdiction of a prefecture-level city is still very large, especially in the era of backward means of transportation, it is impossible to come and go to inspect again without more than half a month.
Project progress, project quality, project environment, labor treatment. Gan Zhizhou is extremely concerned, and no one wants to fool Gan Da Zhizhou.
Repair the road, Gan Qi is about to start to let the Cai family invest a lot of money.
In the spring, the wind direction begins to change, and the ships that have sailed away should start to anchor and go back.
Tokyo's promotion decree also reached Quanzhou.
Gan Qi finally put on the red robe of the fifth-grade official, even if he was from the fifth-grade official, it was also a red robe, and he was powerful.
Quanzhou probably hasn't seen an official in a red robe for many years, and Gan Qi can attract everyone's attention as soon as he goes out.
Because in this Great Song Dynasty, even the emperor usually only wears red official robes, and no one who has seen it knows that Gan Dazhizhou's official uniform is the official official of the big officials.
Gan Qi was promoted, and the happiest person was Pu Zhigao, for him, this time it was really about seeing the right person, imagining the future, and there was an indescribable excitement.
It's just that Gan Qi is already thinking about how to take Pu Zhigao under the knife.
Is it an excuse? Or make an excuse? Or is it an excuse?
What excuses? It's a conundrum.
Sometimes, you really shouldn't accept people's benefits, and after receiving people's benefits, you can't help but take people's hands short and eat people's mouths.
But the benefits given by the Pu family, Gan Qi had to accept it, if he didn't accept it, Pu Zhigao's vigilance would be difficult to eliminate, and the Pu family would not move to Quanzhou City so quickly. Gan Qi has no way to easily handle the Pu family.
Now in fact, the opportunity is just right, the boat of the Pu family has almost gone to sea, and even the ships that are familiar with the Pu family have been called up by Gan Qi.
Today's Pujia is a bird without wings, like a shark stranded on land in the sea.
If you don't do it now, when will you wait?
Gan Qi was a little embarrassed, if he had seized such a good opportunity before, he would have surrounded the Pu family and killed him in the dark.
But now, that's no longer the case.
Gan Qi went to Pu's house to drink a meal again, and couldn't sleep at night, looking at the little girl who was already sleeping next to him, he secretly got up, put on a coat, and paced in the small courtyard.
The little girl who was sleeping soundly in the middle of the night somehow found that Gan Qi was not by her side, and not long after, she also got up and walked to the courtyard.
"Why are you up?" Gan Qi listened to the movement and turned around and asked.
"Is there anything bothering Xianggong?" The little girl looked at Gan Qi with pitiful eyes.
Gan Qi nodded: "It's very annoying." ”
"Can the slave help you?"
"You can't help me." Ganchi shook his head.
"Oh, then the slave maid will make a cup of tea for Xianggong."
"It's fine."
Tea was brought and placed on the stone table in the courtyard, but Gan Qi did not drink it, but said, "Go to sleep first." ”
"Well, the slave will go to sleep."
The little girl went back to her room and lay down on the bed, but she couldn't sleep, she seemed to have a bad feeling, and she couldn't tell the reason, but she had a bad premonition.
There is always a solution to everything, Gan Qi thought about it for a long time, and slowly made up his mind in his heart, looked up at Mingyue, and sighed.
Hard-hearted, ruthless, there is no way.
On the second day, Gan Qi did not get up early in the morning and hurriedly return to the yamen to take duty, but was still asleep at three o'clock in the morning.
Pu Zhigao was pleased with this situation, which meant that Gan Qi was more and more fond of his daughter, so he hurriedly ordered the servants to prepare lunch, and only wait for Gan Qi to get up and eat lunch directly.
Gan Qi got up slowly, and Pu Hill helped him put on his new official uniform, fasten his white jade belt, comb his hair in a bun, and put on his crown and hat.
Ganchi glanced back at Pusil and gave her a smile like a spring breeze. The little girl smiled in response to Ganchi.
The moment he turned his head, Gan Qi's face sank, and he walked away. also bowed his head and ordered Zhou Dong to say a few words, and Zhou Tong ran away and went directly back to the yamen.
In the living room of the front yard, Pu Zhigao has been waiting for a long time.
Gan Qi sat down, Pu Zhigao poured wine for Gan Qi, and Gan Qi also drank a few glasses, so you are welcome.
Finally, Gan Qi still spoke: "Shopkeeper Pu, your family...... There are eighty-four large ships that can go to sea, twenty-five medium ships that can go to sea, and nineteen small boats. ”
"Huh?" Pu Zhigao was stunned by the cold question, and said again: "Why did Xianggong suddenly ask about this?" ”
Gan Qi didn't answer, but said, "Is there eleven of them?" ”
"Uh...... Xianggong said that it was almost the same, there were twelve of them. Pu Zhigao replied with this sentence, and his heart beat wildly, and he already knew that something was wrong.
Pu Zhigao didn't know that at this time, on the wharf, a large number of armor soldiers suddenly rushed over, and passed the order of the Zhizhou Yamen, from today onwards, the plates are not allowed to go to sea, and all ships must be registered by the Zhizhou Yamen, and they are all locked on the berths of the wharf for the time being.
This is not only that, the entire state government, whether it is the government or the tax collector, all poured out of the nest, the coastal shore of Quanzhou, all must be inspected, all the large and small ships that can be launched, even the sampan for fishing, must be locked on the shore and not allowed to go to the sea, and the state government will issue some subsidized money.
Such a big deal is obviously the result of Gan Qi's brewing last night, just for one thing, that is, there must be no news to go to sea. The ships that want the Pu family to go to sea will all come back as planned.
At the banquet of the Pu family, Gan Qi asked again: "There are twelve of them, but one is missing." With so many ships, the business is really big, and it comes and goes every year, and hundreds of thousands of dollars are entered, which is quite terrifying. ”
Pu Zhigao, who already felt that the atmosphere was not right, turned his head to look at the several iron-armored guards behind Gan Qi, and replied stubbornly: "What the minister said is that if you really want to talk about the income of money, hundreds of thousands of yuan per year is at least, and if there are some other businesses, it will not be more than that." ”
Pu Zhigao only thought in his heart that he hoped that his bad feeling was wrong, that he was suspicious and worried, that this Gan Xianggong must be a good person, not the kind of person who crosses the river and demolishes the bridge. He even hoped that his confession would make Gan Xianggong feel that he was loyal.
Gan Qi said again: "Well, the business of sea trade is really profitable, and the official wants to get a share." ”
Pu Zhigao patted his chest: "What's so difficult about this, the two ships of Xianggong last year were petty fights, and this year, the villain asked the shipyard to work day and night, build a few more big ships for Xianggong, and ensure that Xianggong makes a lot of money." ”
Gan Qi waved his hand: "I'm going to buy half of your ship, you make an offer." ”
Gan Qi's words defeated Pu Zhigao's little luck. Pu Zhigao looked at Gan Qi, his brows furrowed deeply. He turned his head again to look at the ironclad guards standing straight behind Gan Qi, and the hands of several guards were pressed against the hilt of the sword.
Pu Zhigao said slowly: "Xianggong doesn't know that the villain's boat is not a villain's master, each house has its own branch, and it is also a livelihood for many clansmen. Xiang Gong rest assured, this year to expand the shipyard, just next year, Xiang Gong will have more than a dozen big ships in hand. ”
Gan Qi still waved his hand: "I can't wait that long, at most in the second half of the year, I will enter Beijing." You make an offer. ”
Pu Zhigao fell into a dilemma, this ship is really the foundation of the Pu family's life, as long as there is a ship, in this world, the Pu family is a giant everywhere, and it is also the hard work of several generations to be able to buy so many ships. These boats are even more important to Po Chi than the money earned.
Giving half of the ships at one time is equivalent to asking for half the life of the Pu family.
Pu Zhigao didn't know how to answer for a while.
Gan Qi said again: "Cargo ship, I want half." , I'll take it all. I want all the ships of the shipyard this year. ”
There were already beads of sweat on Pu Zhigao's forehead, and he replied: "Xianggong, like this...... It's really inappropriate, and the villain can't explain it to the clansmen...... Xianggong ......"
"There is no room for negotiation in this matter, if you should go, I will ensure that your Pu family will have no worries in the Great Song Dynasty, if you don't want to, then this matter is a little difficult to say." Gan Qi's eyes had become a line, staring at Pu Zhigao without taking his eyes off it.
Pu Zhigao was already furious in his heart, how could he accept this kind of condition?
But Pu Zhigao can only endure and endure.
To say that this Pu family, even in the face of Ganqi, the governor of Quanzhou, is not without a fight, even if things develop to the point of fighting and killing, the Pu family is not false at all.
But at this point in time, Pu Zhigao is weak-hearted, because all the people in the Pu family who can fight and kill have all gone to the sea. There are more than 80 large cargo ships, and many human guards need to be taken away, and there are even more people who dare to fight and kill slaves in the South Seas.
Now, there are no more men who can carry knives in the big mansion of the Pu family.
Pu Zhigao could only ask for one more word: "I hope that Gan Xianggong is compassionate, the villain is really difficult to meet Gan Xianggong's requirements, even if Gan Xianggong asks for money, 100,000 yuan, 100,000 yuan, 100,000 yuan, 100,000 yuan, 12 million yuan, the villain's eyes don't blink." The little girl's dowry is also worth so much money. ”
Speaking of Pu Hill, Pu Zhigao hopes that Gan Qi will relent.
"I, not to miss this dowry, I just want the boat. What does the shopkeeper think? "Ganchi is hard-hearted. Gan Qi's iron heart does not stop there, although the opening is big today, this is not Gan Qi's ultimate goal, after all, Gan Qi also left half of the ship for the Pu family.
Gan Qi wants all the ships of the Pu family, but Gan Qi is ready to do it step by step, and he doesn't have to force the Pu family into a dead corner at one time, and directly force it into a dead corner, which will inevitably be a trapped beast fight. Weaken the pu little by little, boil the frog in warm water, this is the best way.
Pu Zhigao was silent, unwilling in his heart, and couldn't nod his head.
Gan Qi said again: "It's better for the shopkeeper to reply quickly." ”
Pu Zhigao's character who crisscrossed the sea, where did he suffer such anger, he couldn't bear it, and replied: "Why is Gan Xianggong so aggressive? ”
Gan Qi only replied with one word: "It's not that I want to be aggressive, but I reported this Quanzhou matter to Tokyo, and the Tokyo Sage has made a will, but also your Pu family's power is too great, and those ministers in Tokyo are a little restless." ”
"Gan Xianggong, the villain's family, has never had any disrespect to the Great Song Dynasty."
"Really?" Ganchi pitched up a bit.
"Not really!"
"You haven't transported iron tools to the Liaoguo Xijin Mansion?" Ganchi asked again. Xijin Mansion is the later Tianjin, the land of the sixteen states of Yanyun today, which is the Nanjing of the Liao State at this time.
Pu Zhigao has one eye.
Gan Qi immediately said: "If it weren't for me talking to you about the Holy Order, you would have been convicted of the crime of communicating with foreign countries at this time, and the whole family would have to be beheaded all over the house." ”
In Pu Zhigao's heart, he suddenly felt some gratitude. Transporting iron tools to Liao is just a business for him. He had never thought about the consequences of this before.
Suddenly, the family moved to Quanzhou City, which is really the crime of stealing the family and exterminating the family.
Patriotism, here at Pu Zhigao, is actually something that cannot be forced. He's not from the country either.
In fact, from this point of view, there is not much difference between Pu Zhigao at this time and Pu Shougeng of Pan Guo in the future.
Gan Qi's plan that he had been thinking about all night was still so clever.
Pu Zhigao spoke at this time: "Gan Xianggong, the villain knows that you are embarrassed, can you ...... Can you underreport the number of these ships to Bianliang? Even if it's only half of it, that's fine. In the future, the villain will not be disappointed by today's great kindness. ”
"It's late, it's a foregone conclusion. It's just that you didn't talk to me at the beginning, but you were told by someone, otherwise how could the Tokyo Holy Lord know that you had transported iron tools to Liao? After Gan Qi said this, he looked at Pu Zhigao and said: "I have tried all my strength to help you maneuver, and you can still keep half of the ship, which is already an extrajudicial grace." ”
Pu Zhigao was reluctant, silent, his heart was like a mess, he believed Gan Qi's words a little, in the past few months, Gan Qi has served him so well, even his daughter has been hooked, and he has given a lot of money, Gan Qi should not be so unrecognizable, Gan Qi before, has never had any sense of abnormality.
Suddenly, he turned his face, thinking that Gan Qi should also be under a lot of pressure.
But Po also knows that there is always something wrong, and things are not so simple.
Gan Qi said again: "For me, there is nothing more important than being promoted to a knight." ”
With this sentence, Ganchi carried a threat.
threatens Pu Zhigao not to hinder Ganda's promotion after that.
This point is too important, Gan Qi can't look down on millions of dollars, and Gan Qi only wants to be promoted. If it really blocks Ganqi's path to promotion......
Pu Zhigao looked up at Ganqi, and Ganqi's eyes were full of coldness.
To give?
Don't give?
To give?
Don't give?
Giving, reluctant to work for generations.
If you don't give it, I'm afraid you won't be able to get by today, Pu Zhigao even suspects that outside this mansion, there are already countless armor soldiers who are just waiting for an order to rush in.
Revolt? How to resist?
Pu Zhigao looked out of this living room from the door and window, and suddenly had a feeling of regret that he had not moved his family to this Quanzhou city so quickly. If you are still on Lieyu, where will you fall into such a situation?
If the family has not yet entered Quanzhou City, Pu Zhigao only needs to happily agree to come down at this time, turn around and go to sea. Even if he was taken hostage by Ganch, Po Zhigao did not want the efforts of generations to be buried in his hands.
Gan Qi suddenly got up and stepped out, several iron armor following left and right, turning their heads and glaring angrily.
Gan Qi's move made Pu Zhigao's heart tremble.
I heard Gan Qi leave a sentence again: "Don't harm me, you can do it yourself today." ”
"Willing to be a prince, the villain is willing...... To give...... Half of the ships are given. ”
Gan Qi stopped, turned back and asked, "Make a price!" ”
"Please also ask the villain to discuss the price after the family discusses."
Gankey nodded and walked out the door.
Outside of this mansion formed by the merger of a row of houses, there were actually hundreds of armor soldiers gathered.
Gan Qi went out, and Shi Honglei was already close to him.
Gan Qi spoke: "Whoever comes out of the house, send someone to follow, and take it directly to the yamen prison." ”
"Yes!"
Gan Qi walked quickly, went directly back to the ya, and sat in command. Prevent the Pu family from fleeing.
Pu Zhigao looked at Gan Qi, who was leaving, sitting motionless in the living room, not knowing what he was thinking.
At this time, Pu Shier came out with a sweet smile, looked left and right, and asked, "Daddy, where is Gan Xianggong?" Did he finish eating? ”
Pu Zhigao glanced back at his innocent daughter and let out a long sigh.
"Dad, what's wrong with you? Last night, Gan Xianggong paced in the yard in the middle of the night, sighing for a long time, and today you will also sigh for a long time. But what happened? Pusil asked.
Pu Zhigao got up slowly, touched Pu Hill's head, and said, "It's okay, you go back to the room first, and when the prince comes back, I will send someone to inform you." ”
"Well, dad can worry less and be happier, worry about aging quickly, and be happy can make the body healthy and live a long life." The little girl said with a smile.
Pu Zhigao also squeezed out a smile in response.
The little girl jumped away, and Pu Zhigao's laughter immediately couldn't be stopped.
This Quanzhou, is it the right one?
Pu Zhigao asked himself.
Half of the net worth is life, and in a few words, if you say no, there will be no more......
What about the coming days?
What if this Gan Xianggong still wants to speak?
Pu Zhigao fell into contemplation, this is not as simple as demolishing a pagoda temple, the pagoda temple can be demolished and rebuilt, if this foundation for life is gone, this Pu family will be completely gone.
Pu Zhigao suddenly shouted: "Someone! ”
A man with a high nose and deep eyes walked in, covered his heart with his hands and bowed: "The master commands." ”
Pu Zhigao slowly bowed down, kept his mouth to the man's ear, and whispered for a long time before he got up and said again: "This matter must be done, otherwise you won't come back." ”
"Don't worry, the villain is dead, and this matter will be done."
The man went out.
