Zhang Xian was enthusiastically pulled to the hall by Li Haozi, Li Haozi bragged about the fact that the imperial court was preparing to canonize him as the "Jinghai Xingying Capital Water Envoy", and the plan to join hands with the imperial court to exterminate Shi Liang and the minions boasted, I have to say that this Li Haozi is still very agitating when he speaks, and directly drew a big cake for the little minions, what gold, silver, jewelry, and women, when the time comes, it will be inexhaustible, and those minions are about to make a fortune, and they are naturally overjoyed, drinking wine and eating meat, While patting Li Haozi and Zhang Xian's ass.

"Oh, the little one said, the magpie is chirping today, it turns out that the distinguished guest of Lord Zhang has come to the door! Come on, come on, let's all salute Lord Zhang and the big boss for a bowl of wine, in the future, the brothers will also be regarded as members of the official family! A little minion said.

"Our big boss was born with a vision, and he has been on the sea for decades, if your old man doesn't be a water official in this court, who the hell would dare to do it?"

"Yes, yes, anyway, everyone works hard with the big boss, and you don't have to worry about food, clothing, and women!"

After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food, the pirates were a little dizzy from drinking, listening to the praise of these little minions, Zhang Xian thought about Zhang Fan's injury in his heart, so he asked:

"The big boss, brother took the liberty to say a word, as the saying goes, there is a way to steal, you tied up my family and did it so ruthlessly, you are not afraid to beat him to death, brother, don't I give silver? If you collect the money and tear up the ticket, I'm afraid no one will believe you in the future, right? How is my family member's injury now? I saw that he was scarred, I'm afraid he won't live long, right? ”

"Hey, you are indeed a special official, so you care about your family? It can't be a brother, some kind of relative, right? Hehe, brother, I'm already a pirate, why do you have to abide by so many rules, if you kill a person, you will be killed, and there won't be so many things. But brother, you are an exception, come on, hurry up and ask, how is Lord Zhang's family injured? You stinky boys, you don't have a serious start, if Master Zhang's family has three long and two short, the master will split you alive. Li Haozi drank the wine, blushing and shaking the stubble on his mouth and yelled.

"Lord, grandfather, grandfather, the little one has already seen it, this Ding is not in danger of life, but he was beaten and collapsed, yesterday's group of brothers, asked that family Ding to kneel, that kid didn't kneel and scolded hard, the brothers whipped him, we didn't know at that time that this was Lord Zhang's family, so we were a little presumptuous, and I also invited the big boss and Lord Zhang Haihan!" A one-eyed minion said.

Zhang Xian said with a smile:

"It's okay if people are okay, Li Da is in charge, these are some small things, or our big things, thank you for your hospitality today, you should go back when you are full of wine and food, we will act according to the plan the day after tomorrow, and then you will be the overlord of the sea in this area, brother! Leave. ”

"There is silver for everyone to earn, we will act according to the plan the day after tomorrow, you see the fire on the shore, it means that we have succeeded, brother, you just need to let the remnants of Shi Liang go ashore, just shoot them with arrows, and ensure that none of them can escape, rest assured, after the matter is completed, brother, I will not treat you badly!"

Li Haozi said to Zhang Xian with a greasy mouth, and after finishing speaking, he turned around and roared:

"Li Dan'er, Gou Yuzi, the two of you will bring two hundred brothers, and give me 50,000 taels of silver to personally escort them to Lord Zhang's mansion."

Zhang Xian and his entourage went back with 55,000 taels of silver and Zhang Fan, a little minion with slanted eyebrows and a black face said to Li Haozi:

"Big boss, you have 50,000 taels of silver, what if the county lieutenant turns against the water? Besides, we hurt his family, if we ......."

"Hmph, do you really think Lao Tzu is a fool? Will you give him 50,000 taels of silver for nothing?? But what this kid said should be true, a county lieutenant who has just won a big victory, but instead sent someone to give gifts to the pirate Shi Liang, and there must be a demon when things go wrong, so his explanation is very reasonable. This is actually not the most important thing, the most important thing is that the county lieutenant agreed to us, which is equivalent to saying that he received two pieces of money, 90,000 taels of silver! With so much silver, even if he is a senior executive of the DPRK and China, he is afraid that he will embezzle so much money in his life, and he is a small county lieutenant, so much silver, what is there to be dissatisfied? So, I can't think of a normal person, what reason does he have to refuse so much silver to fall into his pocket? If it were you, would you refuse? Li Haozi said to the little minion.

"I see, it's still a god in charge, don't say 90,000 taels of silver, 900 taels of silver, the small one won't refuse? Who will have enmity against silver? The little minion said flatteringly.

"Okay, don't be verbose, you go and prepare first, and the day after tomorrow you will attack that Shi Liang kid and destroy this grandson, who is the real overlord of the sea! Hahaha! Li Haozi thought of the good things and laughed proudly.

Zhang Xian was walking back on the boat with Luo Santian and Zhang Fan at this time, and the next few boats were all cargo ships arranged by Li Haozi to transport silver, Zhang Fan was treated by the best doctor arranged by Li Haozi, and his spirit was much better, but his breath was still very weak, and he said to Zhang Xian intermittently:

"Your Excellency, right...... Right..... I'm sorry, my subordinates insulted the mission, didn't complete the errand you assigned, and let the adults ..... Adults come in person...... Salvation. ”

"Zhang Fan, don't say anything, I don't blame you for this, even the official didn't know that there would be such a pirate as Li Haozi, don't worry, the day after tomorrow is the death day of this group of pirates, dare to hit the official's idea, it's not impossible, but with this kind of indiscriminate tricks, and they don't even talk about their own rules of "thieves have a way", and dare to abuse you in front of the official, that is, they will kill themselves. Life in the world, there are things to do, there are things not to do, since the official said: We have a noble name, but in fact we are brothers, how can I, as a big brother, watch my brother suffer all the humiliation and be indifferent? Besides, these pirates kill people and steal goods, and they don't have a little conscience as human beings at all, and if they are not exterminated, the officials feel sorry for the people in the world and eat the people in vain. So, Zhang Fan, you have to get better quickly, the Ministry of Maritime Trade is still counting on you to pick up the burden. Zhang Xian looked at Zhang Fan with caring eyes, and said righteously, just like talking about his deep hatred.

Zhang Fan's eyes flashed with tears, his lips trembled, and he nodded heavily at Zhang Xian's majestic body.

"Today, I almost entered the underworld, and I lost my lord's wisdom, not only did I not spend a tael of silver, and I went home safely, but I also cheated Li Haozi to give us 50,000 taels of silver, and my subordinates had to obey the wisdom of adults. Since the next step for the adults is to exterminate this group of pirates, but the subordinates also said it before, the difficulty is quite large, I don't know what the adults have to do? Luo Tiantian was surprised again, and said to Zhang Xian suspiciously.

"Three days, what you said is right, this official does have a plan to completely destroy this group of pirates, but the rest of the things need to be done by you. After you get off the ship, you will immediately secretly take a boat to find Shi Liang, tell Shi Liang the truth of the matter, and ask Shi Liang to take precautions, strike a blow to Li Haozi, and then beat the drum to strengthen the momentum, after Li Haozi finds out that he has been fooled, he will definitely flee back to the cottage in a hurry, and ask Shi Liang to send a warship to pursue, and then we will strangle Li Haozi from the front, and in one go, we will encircle and strangle the pirate Li Haozi. "After you tell Shi Liang about the plan, you will immediately come back and select more than a dozen brothers who are agile and can climb rocks and walk on the wall. This time, the official also wants to make none of them run. Zhang Xian said.

"My lord, what if Shi Liang doesn't want to?" Luo Tiantian asked.

"Three days, you will be the right hand of the official in the future, you can think that if Shi Liang is unwilling, it is a good thing, at least it proves that you are working hard. But when we look at problems, you have to learn to look at things from different angles, first imagine multiple possibilities, and then empathize with what you would do if you were the other person. Just like this incident, Shi Liang has nothing more than three choices, agree to cooperate, disagree to cooperate, and remain silent and do not choose. However, Li Haozi doesn't care whether he Shi Liang will agree to cooperate with us or not, it is certain to attack him Shi Liang, empathy, if you are Shi Liang, in the face of a strong enemy, whether to choose a classmate to be a strong reinforcement, or a person to fight alone without knowing the battle situation, you will know what choice you will make. Zhang Xian said sincerely to Luo Tiantian, for his future right-hand men and henchmen, Zhang Xian is imperceptibly trying to improve their level of behavior.

"My subordinates understand, and I will live up to the trust of my lord." Luo Sansan's convincing promise, his heart felt hot, Zhang Xianken spent a huge amount of five thousand taels of silver to ransom people for a subordinate Zhang Fan, not to mention that ancient anecdotes are rare in ancient and modern times, and he sincerely teaches his own way of doing things, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is also a teacher and a friend.

When the boat arrived outside Yangzhou City, Wang Fu, Niu Dameng and others had been waiting for a long time, and when they saw that there were still a few boats behind Zhang Xian, they were startled and immediately put out a defensive formation. When everyone saw Zhang Xian get off the boat safely, they breathed a sigh of relief, and everyone clasped their fists at Zhang Xian and called "My lord". Zhang Xian nodded, called Niu Dameng, and asked Zhang Fan to be carried back to the house for treatment, and then carried back all the 50,000 taels of silver, Niu Dameng and others saw that Zhang Xian had brought so much silver, and immediately smiled, although he didn't know the origin of this silver, but he had to admire, this Zhang Dameng made a fortune too fast. After sending away Li Haozi's minions, Zhang Xian immediately asked Luo Tiantian to select a few good players by himself and immediately went to find Shi Liang.

After Zhang Xian dealt with the matter, he asked Niu Dameng why he didn't see Wang Fu, and Niu Dameng said:

"Yesterday, Wang Jiaotou brought back 200 war horses, 200 bows and arrows, 200 armor clothes, and 500 tall and strong bandits, saying that they had a secret mission to go to the field, and they have not come back until now, so their subordinates are not very clear."

"Oh, it was the official who forgot all of a sudden, the mission of the head of the Wang sect was sent by the official, but it stands to reason that he should come back now, no matter what, we still go home first, and the combat mission will be sent to you immediately." Zhang Xian said suspiciously.

Just as everyone was about to go home, a family member came running from afar and shouted:

"Master Zhang, Wang Jiaotou has just returned to the mansion, and he is still tied up and brought back a bandit to surrender to the army, but Wang Jiaotou's arm is injured, and the back of his hand is bleeding, Madame asked you to go home and have a look."

Zhang Xian was taken aback after hearing what Jiading said, who is Wang Fu? Who can hurt him? Could it be the bandit who was bound? Zhang Xian's heart was full of doubts, and he said loudly:

"Hurry up, everyone, go home right away!"
