Chen Wenjie was not mistaken, this General Ye and his subordinates were not Dongying people at all.

As soon as General Ye opened his mouth, it was a pure Ming official, and he directly bowed his hand and saluted: "Everyone is old, I haven't seen you for a long time, I don't know what you are doing when you come in person this time?" ”

Old?

This seems to be Dongying's title, it's the official language of the Ming Dynasty, and it's also the Ming Dynasty's bow salute, but the words carry the title of Dongying, what a mess!

Chen Wenjie was in a daze, but Chen Jiudao didn't mind and said: "It's windy here, why don't we go into the house and talk about it." ”

This meaning must be a relatively secret thing, General Ye heard this, and suddenly said: "Oops, it's rude, it's rude, it's rude, please inside, please inside." ”

With that, he made a gesture of please, and then turned and walked out into the courtyard.

Chen Jiudao was not ambiguous, he directly beckoned to Chen Wenjie, and motioned for a group of entourage guards to wait outside, and then followed General Ye to the courtyard.

The courtyard was not large, and the houses inside were built rather crudely, so it looked like a temporary resting place.

General Ye led Chen Jiudao and Chen Wenjie into the humble lobby, and politely invited them to sit down, and then spoke: "Everyone is old, I don't know who this is?" ”

Chen Jiudao hurriedly introduced: "This is my second brother's eldest son, Chen Wenjie. Wen Jie, this is the general under the owner of the Five Peaks, the Five Dragons General Ye Zongman. ”

Five Peaks Ship Owner?

It turned out to be a general under Wang Zhi, this Wang Zhi is amazing, he is the largest in the maritime merchants, it is rumored that there are tens of thousands of people under his command, and there are no less than 100 large and small ships, which are greater than the power of the maritime giants Yuyao Xie and Ningbo Chen.

This Wang Zhi Chen Wenjie has naturally heard of it, it is an existence that the maritime giants can't afford to provoke, and he naturally doesn't dare to be arrogant in front of his generals, as soon as Chen Jiudao finished introducing it, he pretended to bow his hand and said: "It turned out to be General Ye under the seat of the owner of the Wufeng ship, rude, rude." ”

Ye Zongman naturally also knew that the second elder of the Chen family was the imperial history of the Ming Imperial Court, that is to say, at this time, the Chen family was actually the second eldest Chen Jiude in charge, and his eldest son was equivalent to the successor of the next generation of the Chen family, so the second ancestor naturally could not be neglected.

He pretended to be polite, and then continued to ask: "Everyone, there are no outsiders here, if there is anything, you might as well speak up." ”

Chen Jiudao nodded slightly, and then said directly: "General Ye, I won't tell you, this time we want to ask the Dongying Ronin under the owner of the ship to help us take care of a merchant who doesn't know whether he is alive or dead. ”

When Ye Zongman heard this, his face did not show any abnormality, this kind of thing, they have not done it, these maritime giants will basically ask them for help when it is inconvenient to make a move, because they have "Dongying Ronin" under them.

The reason why these maritime giants asked their "Dongying Ronin" to take action was mainly to avoid trouble, this "Dongying Ronin" was actually the real Japanese pirates, and the pirates under the maritime giants were all fake Japanese pirates.

If the matter is revealed, it will be troublesome for their subordinates to be caught, they are likely to be implicated, and they will be fine if they are caught, anyway, these real Japanese will die if they are caught, no one will betray them, and most of the real Japanese will not know their identities, and they can't betray if they want to.

This matter is simple, and he asked with ease: "Where is this merchant from, and what is the specific situation at home?" ”

Chen Jiudao didn't answer, he directly turned his head and signaled for Chen Wenjie to introduce.

Chen Wenjie was not ambiguous, he said in detail: "That's the case, General Ye, this merchant is the famous Yang family in Hui'an, that is, the Yang family that started from the timber business. Originally, they were just ordinary merchants, but the old man of the Yang family of this generation donated a Nanjing Guanglu Temple Administration, that is, an idle job from the seventh grade. The Yang family has about 30 nursing homes, more than 50 other family members, maids, and old mothers, and there are about 20 shopkeepers and clan children at all levels living in the Yang Mansion. The main target we invite you to cook this time is Yang Cong, the eldest son of the Yang family, and there are more than 20 guards around him, and I heard that they are all Xiang Yong who have some kung fu, and this is the general situation. ”

When Ye Zongman heard this, he nodded solemnly, and then asked, "What do you want, do you want to destroy him or just kill this Yang Cong?" ”

Destroy him all over the place!

Although Chen Wenjie was born in a wealthy maritime businessman, he had never personally participated in the murder and arson, and he was a little panicked when he heard the words of destroying people.

He subconsciously shrunk his neck, and then shook his head and said: "It's not necessary to destroy him, but this Yang Cong and Yang Rong, the old lady of the Yang family, must be killed." ”

When Ye Zongman heard this, he pondered for a while, and then nodded and said: "Well, it's not difficult to kill these two people, so let's do it, the price is five thousand taels, and it is best to sell cotton cloth and porcelain, these two things are the best to sell." ”

Chen Wenjie couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, the Yang Mansion was not defenseless at all, there were more than 50 guards and guards in it alone, and they rushed in to kill the old lady and eldest son and grandson of the family and only collected 5,000 taels, this price is too cheap, right?

Also, what do you mean by cotton cloth and porcelain?

He couldn't help but look at Chen Jiudao suspiciously, and his eyes seemed to ask: "Five thousand taels, so cheap, really fake?" ”

Of course, Ye Zongman didn't mean five thousand taels of silver, he wanted cotton cloth and porcelain worth five thousand taels of silver, these two things were sold in Dongying, and the price could be at least four or five times higher!

This bit of goods is nothing to the Longxi Chen family, Chen Jiudao said cheerfully: "Okay, the goods can be sent here for you in half a month, when will your people be able to do it?" ”

Ye Zongman didn't answer this question immediately, but shouted outside: "Go, call Harada Kojiro to come over." ”

Someone outside the lobby obeyed the order, and soon, a lean man dressed in Dongying's service walked in quickly, ran to Ye Zongman, nodded and said, "Shougunka Koka." ”

When Ye Zongman heard this, he reprimanded: "Baga, don't say your bird language in front of the guests!" ”

When Harada Kojiro heard this, he quickly nodded and replied stiffly: "Yes, General." ”

Ye Zongman nodded slightly, and then asked: "Kill two people, the merchant of the Ming Dynasty, the other party has more than fifty guards, how many ronins do you need to summon?" ”

Harada Kojiro thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Twenty." ”

Ye Zongman frowned and said: "Be safe, thirty, after the matter is completed, I will give you three thousand taels, how long will it take to gather people over?" ”

Three thousand taels!

His ronins can fight hard for a few dozen taels, that is, he can earn at least a thousand taels!

When Harada Kojiro heard this, he said excitedly: "In a month, I can gather it." ”

When Ye Zongman heard this, he turned his head to Chen Wenjie and said: "Chen Gongzi, the ronins under our command rarely work here, so we need a little time to gather, today is the ninth day of the first month, and the fifteenth day of next month, you send someone here to pick them up to work, what do you think?" ”

There is no one here, what else can I do, no matter how anxious I am, I have to wait.

Chen Wenjie nodded helplessly and said, "Okay, it'll be the fifteenth of next month." ”

Ye Zongman waved his hand and asked Harada Kojiro to retreat, then nodded and said, "Then be it, remember to prepare the guide, a simple map, and the portraits of Yang Cong and Yang Rong." ”
