Chapter 175: Persuasion
"Xie Bao, hurry up, go back to Wenfu immediately, and call all our armed men." Xu Shiyang instructed: "If someone from the Wen family is willing to come with him, he can also bring it with him, and tell them that I will open a good hall here." ”
"Why don't we go back together." Xie Bao suggested: "As soon as I leave, there is only one selector left by the commander's side, and I can't afford to wait for something to happen." ”
"We're going to have to watch the ball here." Xu Shiyang said as a matter of course.
"It's better to take him back with you." Xie Bao is quite insistent on this.
Xu Shiyang thought about it and felt that it was right, if this ball did not die, the ball's subordinates should not rob his property.
Well, it's just that he won't snatch too much, after all, according to the ball, he is doing things for Captain Gao, and most of those properties should belong to Gao Yu, right?
"Alright, let's go back first."
However, as soon as Xu Shiyang agreed, the second wave of thugs in the human market surrounded him first.
There are only a dozen people in this group, both men and women, although the leader is an old man with gray hair, but this person is very well-proportioned, walks with a tigerish style, and has a pair of iron-clad short crutches inserted in his waist, obviously a practitioner.
"This group is not easy to deal with." Xie Bao muttered in a low voice with a cold face.
"You can see it." Xu Shiyang agreed, and at the same time pulled out the flintlock pistol on his waist.
"Ma Daxia! Ma Daxia help! ”
Seeing the arrival of reinforcements, the fat man took advantage of Xu Shiyang's inattention, and fled towards the white-bearded old man.
However, he was so fat, how could he move quickly, and another selector stepped forward and kicked the ball again, and then stepped on his back, holding the waist knife against the back of the fat man's head.
"Did my lord let you go?" Xuan Feng Bing said coldly.
The fat man screamed loudly: "Help! Help me! ”
Xu Shiyang was surprised to find that the people on the other side did not step forward, and even a few young men and women couldn't help but show a smile on their faces when they heard the fat man's call for help.
"In the dismount." The white-bearded old man in the lead bowed his hand and saluted Xu Shiyang: "I don't know who this little brother's surname is?" What is the grudge against our hosts? ”
"They're here to steal the deal! Save me! ”
The fat man was still calling for help, but the young Feng Selector was impatient to listen, he directly slapped the fat man on the back of the head with a knife, and said coldly: "If you dare to speak again, you will let your head fall to the ground!" ”
The fat man immediately closed his mouth tightly.
By this time, most of the onlookers had dispersed.
Most of these people were stewards of large families who came to buy slaves, and it was nothing to watch when they were fighting, but now that so many people have died, it is a bit risky to continue to stay here.
There are only some warriors who are a little confident in their own strength and need to know who the boss of the human city is in the future, and the homeless people who have nowhere to go are still in place.
Moreover, when those warriors saw the white-bearded old man, they also retreated back into a space to express their awe, which made Xu Shiyang feel that he could use the musket more unscrupulously.
Of course, it is not strange that many people are polite, the white-bearded old man has been thoughtful for several years, and he has no intention of stepping forward to save the ball, and Xu Shiyang is also happy to delay the time to load ammunition a little.
He nodded to Whitebeard in return, and poured gunpowder into the barrel of the gun with both hands, and said:
"I'm Xu Shiyang of Juzhou, I don't have any grudges against this ball, but I have a grudge against all the bastards who take Han people and are not people."
"Wow!"
There were bursts of exclamations from the onlookers:
"He is Xu Shiyang!!"
"Who is Xu Shiyang?" Someone who has never heard this name asked curiously.
"You don't even know about him? Last year killed the Tartars a fierce An! A hero who kills a tartar like a dog! ”
The white-bearded old man had obviously heard of this name, he looked Xu Shiyang up and down carefully, then turned his head to look at the corpses of the thugs on the ground, and said slowly: "No wonder it's so powerful!" ”
"However, little brother, you are wrong about one thing, although many people die every day in this human city, many people are also saved."
"You also want to say that even if you sell people and have a way to live, it's better than staying in Jiangbei and eating people?" Xu Shiyang asked in a strange tone.
"Yes." The white-bearded old man replied: "Old man, I am also from Jiangbei, it is because this human city is finally a way to live, so I give them a guard, you ruined this human city, look relieved, but so many homeless people, how can they still survive in the future?" ”
"Old man, I will not only give them a way to live, but also let them live like a person!" Xu Shiyang replied unceremoniously: "Not only the people who are here now, even if there are homeless people coming over in the future, I will give them a much better life than now!" It doesn't matter if he's from Jiangbei or Jiangnan! ”
"There are thousands of people every day, and if all the displaced people come, it will be tens of thousands, tens of thousands, how can you do it......
"Can I do it, you just look at it honestly!" Xu Shiyang said angrily: "You are blocking my way!" Now make a choice, if you want to continue to be a dog for this dog thief, then make it clear that I will kill you before I do anything. ”
"If you also want to give the homeless people a real chance, then listen to me, come and help me, within 10 days, Lao Tzu will make this city completely change!"
The old man stared at Xu Shiyang with a pair of bull's eyes, and reminded in that unhurried tone:
"This city spends a lot of money every year to deal with the former commander of the Forbidden Army Palace, if he annoys you......"
"Fight or not help and don't help, what do you want to do?" Xu Shiyang said angrily: "If you don't dare to do anything, get out of the way, don't get in the way of those who do practical things!" ”
The white-bearded old man was still hesitating, but a girl in a power suit next to him jumped out first to support Xu Shiyang:
"Grandpa, I think he's right! This city of people is like a place for a person! What a prospect! ”
Another high-spirited young man immediately stood up and said: "Master, the little junior sister is right, it is only ten days, if this person can save so many people in the city, we should help him!" Even if Captain Gao blames him, he will bear it alone! ”
"What did Senior Brother say?" The girl cried out dissatisfiedly, "I'll bear it with you!" ”
Young people are always more enthusiastic than others, not to mention that there is an obviously very favored girl taking the lead, so the young people around Whitebeard are croaking together.
As soon as Xu Shiyang saw that there was a door, he immediately added a fire:
"Old man, you don't have to be afraid of that Gao Yu, if you want to help, send someone to the mansion of the Duke of Wen, and tell the old Duke Wen, the little bachelor of arts, Xu Shiyang of Juzhou is in the market here, and then call my guards, if you are timid, don't get involved!"
"What? Moon Xianggong!? The white-bearded old man was shocked.
