Chapter Seventy-Eight: Between Brothers

"Big brother! It's meal time, don't talk nonsense! Chen Song yelled at Brother Yin. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

He is very speechless about this little friend, and he always speaks and does things very directly, or there is no one who is good. Now seeing that he actually jumped out and asked Pan Xuezhong for money in front of adults, he hurriedly spoke out to stop it.

"Oh! It's Yin Di! Right, right! Second brother, you can't count what you say! Wang Rui had a very good impression of Brother Yin, and he also laughed and joked about Pan Xuezhong!

"Haha! It turned out to be you stupid soldier! Can't you just pursue a little? That's right, that's what you adults are talking about! Don't worry, this young master has money, and your reward is indispensable! By the way, apart from you, a stupid soldier, who else has killed more than 106 pirates? Young Master Ben has rewarded it this time! Say okay, one counts as one, and none of them are pulled down! Pan Xuezhong laughed.

"My lord, Master Pan! In addition to Brother Yin, there is only one named Liu Laosan! Chen Song reported.

"Only two people exceed that?" Wang Rui was a little puzzled.

However, he quickly understood that there were only more than 3,000 Japanese soldiers on Fujiang Island, and there were nearly 600 soldiers of the Fushan Army who came ashore.

Pan Xuezhong was indeed bold, and after returning to the official room with Wang Rui, he immediately called someone to call Brother Yin and Liu Laosan, and directly asked Uncle Cai to honor the promised bounty.

Seeing the two of them go out with the silver with a smile, Chen Song also asked, "My lord, Young Master Pan, do you want to hold another commendation meeting?" ”

He has been by Wang Rui's side for a long time, and he knows that Wang Rui pays attention to reputation and propaganda in everything, so he asked this question.

"Haha, what kind of commendation meeting is there?! After this incident, Young Master Ben has long been notorious, do you want Young Master Ben to leave a name in black history again? Pan Xuezhong laughed.

However, he was not wrong. It is recorded in the history books of later generations: Pan Xuezhong, the organizer and implementer of the Fujiang Island Massacre in the former Japanese Kingdom. This was the first well-documented battle after the Han Navy went overseas, and it used the blood and tears of the Japanese people to establish the great military prestige of the Han "colonization team".

Of course, there are other studies that show that Pan Xuezhong is only a scapegoat for this incident, and the specific mastermind may be someone else.

How to record Wang Rui in later generations can't be controlled, and he is unwilling to hold a commendation meeting on this matter. After all, this army is his Wang Rui's private army!

Pan Xuezhong understands this more clearly than others, so he doesn't want to make Wang Rui unhappy because of such a trivial matter. He even regretted it a little bit, jumping out and opening the bounty randomly, is it a bit overstepping.

Therefore, Pan Xuezhong hurriedly stopped Chen Song's words and turned the topic to the situation of going to Dengzhou to do things for Wang Rui.

As Pan Xuezhong expected, with these Japanese heads and a large sum of silver taels, Wang Ruisheng's guerrilla affairs in Laizhou was quickly completed.

Sun Guozhen, who has just taken office, is worried about how to change his image in the eyes of the new emperor and take off the hat of the eunuch. Now that he has the head sent by Wang Rui, he hurriedly asked his staff to write a flowery report, and sent it to Beijing with the head of the Japanese Kou to report the good news to the new emperor.

As the saying goes, "there are three fires when a new official takes office", in fact, this is the same when he is an emperor. Whenever a new leader comes on the scene, it has to make a little noise, right? Otherwise, how can it appear that the Holy Son of Heaven is in power, and the weather is updated.

Therefore, the imperial court quickly approved: Wang Rui was promoted to Laizhou guerrilla, and there was no need to go to Beijing to report, but only needed to continue to train strong soldiers in the local area to ensure the peace of Laizhou.

"Second brother has worked hard! I will definitely toast the second brother two more glasses tonight! Wang Rui was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly stood up and arched over to thank Pan Xuezhong.

"The third brother is outside! I want to thank you, you have to thank the eldest prince of Shi! Pan Xuezhong said politely.

"Oh! Why didn't Prince Shi come with his second brother this time? Wang Rui asked curiously.

This Shi Dagongzi has a very good relationship with Pan Xuezhong, and every time Pan Xuezhong goes to Dengzhou, he must come with him like a fart. This time he didn't come, Wang Rui was quite surprised.

"He, it's autumn boudoir at this time, and he can't come this time!" Pan Xuezhong sighed.

"Oh, if you can't come, you can't come! While we are free now, we brothers will have to settle the score! In this battle on Fukue Island, the second brother contributed the most, and the credit was also the greatest! I can't afford not to give the second brother two silver taels! Wang Rui said with a smile.

"Haha! You still remember this ballast! However, when you say that, you are underestimating your brother! The third brother's great cause is just beginning, and it is for his brother to help him with all his might, a little meager work, and what to mention the silver two! The third brother must not mention this matter again in the future. If this is spread out, you and my brother will have to make outsiders laugh! Pan Xuezhong scolded with a smile.

"Second brother, are you going to trap the third brother in injustice?" Ma Ju just walked in from outside. After hearing the conversation between the two, he interjected with a smile.

"Big brother has learned a lesson! All right! Brother doesn't want money! As long as the third brother agrees: I will hand over all the goods produced here to the second brother and I will sell them. I only sell to Nanzhili, Jiangsu, and Zhejiang. For the sake of other places, I won't interfere for the time being. In the future, when business is good, the third brother will give priority to supplying my Pan family's business. Pan Xuezhong gave Ma Jushen a bow, and then said to Wang Rui with a smile.

Profiteers, profiteers! Why is a handsome and dashing person like Pan Xuezhong, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, so treacherous?

It seems that Zhejiang was able to produce Hu Xueyan and Ma Yun later, but there is a history and cultural heritage. Look at this Pan Xuezhong, he obviously doesn't want money, but he occupies the three richest places as his monopoly market.

Wang Rui's current goods can be said to be as long as they are produced, they will not worry about being unmarketable. It is the cotton cloth produced later, the quality and cost of the finished products produced by these large industries, how can Songjiang's handicraft workshop and family production be compared?

With these unique or super competitive goods, making money is not an easy task!

But Pan Xuezhong wants to make money, but he earns it openly. And fully took into account the interests of the other party, especially the one who was so angry that he even refused to give him his own money, what else can you say in the face of such conditions and bearing?

"Second brother is polite! In this way, the little brother confessed. Thank you, second brother! Although Wang Rui was slandered in his heart, he still stood up and bowed deeply to Pan Xuezhong.

"Haha, between brothers, that's how it should be!" Ma Ju praised.

Wang Rui sent someone to call Chen Ming back, and at noon, several people had a banquet together, and the whole group of brothers, friends and brothers were obedient to the scene of kindness and righteousness.

Because Pan Xuezhong has been over for a long time this time, he is in a hurry to leave immediately. After all, without his sales return funds, Wang Rui's various workshops would not be able to operate normally.

Therefore, in the afternoon of the same day, Wang Rui ordered the dispatch of 1,000 soldiers, under the organization of the juvenile working group, to go all out to load Pan Xuezhong.

This time, in addition to bringing back a larger number of glass products and more and larger mirrors, Pan Xuezhong also transported a large amount of woven cotton cloth. Jiangnan's "cotton war" is just around the corner!

Wang Rui calculated the time, it was now October of the seventh year of the Apocalypse, and the preparation time left for him was only one and a half years at most. So he also hoped that Pan Xuezhong would go back quickly, so that he would not have to worry about himself every time he returned to the voyage.

Will he be able to build a rear-loading musket in more than a year? And what mortars! Wang Rui felt that time was already very short.

Besides, after these guns are built, if they are to be installed in the troops, they still need to be trained and even tested in actual combat. Otherwise, who knows if it will work?
