Chapter 610: Too Much Deception
The refreshing river breeze blows on the body, which makes people's spirits invigorated. Pineapple $
Long Muyun's family left and chose a relatively remote wharf, and the family had already boarded the boat, just waiting for Long Muyun to board the boat and set off.
"What are the plans of the old gang leader in the future?"
Ye Xun was able to send Long Muyun in person, more of a gesture for others to see, not how good the relationship between the two was.
Long Muyun obviously understood Ye Xun's intentions, if he was replaced by those brave and ruthless people in the ordinary rivers and lakes, most of his life's foundation would be destroyed, and most of his family property would be confiscated.
But Long Muyun really let it go, first, he was already past the age of happiness and revenge, and after seeing Ye Xun's terrifying strength and methods, he couldn't afford to resist anymore, not for himself, but also for his family!
sighed slightly, and said: "Father-in-law can rest assured, since Long has chosen to retire, he will definitely be willing to harvest the countryside, and will never cause any more trouble to his father-in-law."
Ye Xun shook his head with a smile and said, "Old Gang Leader Long, do you know why I have always admired your junior brother Master Fan very much?" ”
"Put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the ground, this is what people often say in Buddhism, but many people have to put down the butcher's knife in their hands in order to escape and feel guilty, and then there is no then, but Master Fan is not, who has not been young and impulsive? Often in the rivers and lakes, who has no blood on their hands? It is most admirable that the master can use practical actions and spend the rest of his life to atone for the mistakes he made when he was young."
"Amitabha! Gonggong Ye has won the award, and the poor monk is just asking for a kind of peace of mind."
Long Muyun glanced at Senior Brother Fan, nodded understandingly, and said, "Father-in-law's golden and jade good words, Long has written it down."
Speaking of this, he hugged his fists to everyone and said: "The green mountains do not change, the green water always flows, and we will have a period in the future."
"Brother Long will have a period later!"
"Senior brother, take care!"
"The old gang leader of Long has a smooth journey, if your descendants are interested in becoming officials, you can come to the capital at any time to find your father"
Listening to Ye Xun's words, Long Muyun bowed down again, then turned around and got on the boat, and under the gaze of everyone, the two boats sailed away...
"Father-in-law, can you let the dog join the new army as well?"
Long Muyun's ship shadow hadn't disappeared yet, and Cheng Xiaotian couldn't wait to say.
Ye Xun looked at Cheng Yong, who was eager, and said with a smile: "It's definitely no problem to join the army, but I don't know if Brother Cheng can endure the hardships in the army?" ”
Cheng Yong is no longer young, since he was a child, under the protection of his father, he can be regarded as a brocade of clothes and food, and he grew up freely, and it is strange that he can stand all kinds of rules and regulations in the army, so Ye Xun said this.
In addition, although the Cao Gang has agreed to join the West Factory, the influence of the Cheng family's father and son is still there, and if Cheng Yong is allowed to form a force in the new army, there will definitely be hidden dangers to the stability of Jiangnan.
Not allowing Cheng Yong to enter the new army is also a means of preventing trouble before it burns.
"Father-in-law, rest assured, the dog's skills are still passable, when he practiced martial arts in the past, he also suffered a lot, and the military camp is nothing to him"
Cheng Xiaotian knew very well that if he wanted the Cheng family to gain a foothold in Jiangnan and truly clear his identity, he had to tie the Cheng family to Ye Xun's chariot.
Ye Xun pondered for a moment and said: "This public only looks at ability, if Brother Cheng really intends to join the army, then go to Liaodong first!" There are many wars over there, and there are many opportunities, with Brother Cheng's ability, he will soon show his prominence, and when the time comes, my father will entrust Brother Cheng with a heavy responsibility, and others will not say anything."
After listening to Ye Xun's words, the two of them were silent, and it was obvious that Ye Xun would not go through the back door because of their special status.
The silence was only for a moment, and Cheng Yong hugged his fists and said: "Since my father-in-law loves him, the villain can't let my father-in-law down, and the villain is willing to go to Liaodong to join the army."
Speaking of this, Cheng Yong turned his head to his father again, and said: "Father, my son is not filial, I can't be by your side to be filial, my father-in-law is right, a good man should fight on the battlefield, my son has confidence in himself, and he will definitely fight for a good future and come back, and glorify our ancestors for the Cheng family."
Listening to Cheng Yong's words, Cheng Xiaotian was certainly very pleased, Ye Xun was also a little surprised, according to his thoughts, Cheng Yong could join the navy, since Cheng Yong could have such a mind, then this person might as well cultivate it well.
Ye Xun immediately wrote a letter of recommendation to Cao Wenzhao, asking Cheng Yong to take it to Kuandian to show his attention.
Cheng Yong thanked him and went back to prepare to say it for the time being, Ye Xun called Cheng Xiaotian, who wanted to catch up with his son.
"Old man, my father still has something to ask for, I hope the old man will not refuse"
has come to this point, Cheng Xiaotian's request for Ye Xun, can you say no? Busy nodded in agreement.
"The old man has been begging for a living on the water, and my father plans to form a navy next, but the naval soldiers and shipbuilders have not yet been settled, can the old leaf help me think of a way?"
The matter of the Liaodong Naval Division going south is still a secret, and with such a long coastline of the Ming Dynasty, it is simply unrealistic to rely on a few thousand navies and dozens of warships, so these things will start to operate before the Liaodong Naval Division arrives.
Cheng Xiaotian frowned and pondered for a moment, his eyes suddenly lit up, and said: "Father-in-law, I remember, there is a hermit surnamed Tian in Gaoyou County, no one knows the specific name, the locals call him Tian Jiugong, and the old man also knew by chance that he was originally a giant on the sea, and he should have chosen to retire when he was old, so my father-in-law might as well visit him."
Ye Xun nodded, this question is indeed a bit difficult for Cheng Xiaotian, after all, his subordinates are only rampant on the river, and how can the river and the sea be compared.
Returning to Yangzhou Mansion, before his ass was hot, Shen Changshan came to the door.
It just so happened that Ye Xun was also looking for him, although the Yangzhou prefect was taken by Ye Xun, it did not affect the normal operation of the yamen, and it was not the first time that Ye Xun had dealt with such a thing when he was in Liaodong.
After ordering someone to serve tea to Shen Changshan to give up his seat, Ye Xun said directly: "I urgently need a batch of food, can Brother Shen help me?" ”
You must know that Jiangnan was originally the least short of food, but the food was hoarded by individuals.
Originally, the West Factory also had a channel to buy grain, but it was the military rations supplied to Liaodong, and it was easy to move until it was a last resort.
Shen Changshan nodded and said, "This is not a problem, if I guess correctly, my father-in-law is planning to use food to appease the victims of Lianghuai, right?" ”
Ye Xun nodded and said, "This is something that can't be helped, if the people can't eat enough, they will become homeless, and in the end, they will even be used by people with intentions."
As if in response to Ye Xun's words, as soon as his words fell, a guard hurriedly ran in outside the door.
"Father-in-law Qi, the five Marquis of Bailian in Huai'an Mansion gathered hungry people to make trouble, and Huai'an Mansion has now been captured"
Listening to the guard's recital, Ye Xun couldn't help but be stunned, this is too coincidental! He had just transferred the officers and soldiers of Huainanwei here, and there were people who made a rebellion over there, wasn't it calculated?
In addition, this kind of thing should be traceable, is it true that the local government is deaf and blind?
Before the guard could leave, another guard walked in quickly.
"Father-in-law, Yao Yizhi, the governor of Jinling, asks to see you!" ...
