In summer, Liaohai Mangrove Bay is sunny and the sea breeze is blowing. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Pan Cheng stood on the deck of the big ship, looking curiously at the group of Liaodong fugitives on the coast.

There were twenty rows on the shore, most of them young and strong, and there were some women, old people, and children. The men stood still, in good order, without the panic of the refugees they usually saw.

This Pan Cheng, who is known as Xuezhong, is the Pan Gongzi of the Maritime Merchant Ship Gang that Ma Ju found yesterday.

This Pan family was originally a gentry family in Jinhua, Zhejiang, and in recent generations, it has produced many talents. Not only did some people get into the jinshi, but the official went to the prefect of Ningbo. There is also a person who relied on the power of the Ningbo prefect and gradually developed into a huge maritime merchant in the coastal area of Zhejiang. This maritime merchant is the grandfather of this Pan Xuezhong.

This Pan Xuezhong's father has a wife and concubines in five rooms, and he is the son of the wife of these four rooms. Because he was born handsome since he was a child, he looked cute, and he was even liked by his father. originally wanted to train him to enter the imperial examination, but he was exposed to it since he was a child, and he liked to run the sea since he was a child. Although he was a talent, he also worked part-time as a maritime businessman.

It's just that he is an unusual maritime businessman, practical and discerning. Compared with the ordinary maritime merchants of this era, there is more adventure and pioneering spirit.

Pan Xuezhong let the boat go, picked up the horse and lifted it up, and after looking at the boarding plan he brought, the two discussed again and finalized the boarding of the ship.

Holding the boarding plan brought by Ma Ju in his hand, Pan Xuezhong finally shouted: "It's not simple, it's not simple!" The person who set this strategy is really talented! ”

"Yes, Mr. Pan! My second brother is indeed very talented! Look, here we go! Ma Ju pointed to the shore.

As the boat put down by Pan Xuezhong arrived at the shore, I saw strong men begin to board the boat with a team of people.

I saw that each team of people was lined up in a neat row, silently stepping forward in order. Before everyone got on board, they went to the place where the supplies were stacked and got a cloth bag. Pan Xuezhong saw that there was a big symbol on each cloth bag, and he knew this symbol and knew that it was the so-called Arabic numerals.

After seeing this, he couldn't help but wonder a little: Could it be that some of this group of people also ran across the sea?

In this era, only people who have run across the sea have had contact with the Hongyi ghost and know that it is an Arabic numeral. I didn't think about it, but I saw it in the team of this group of Liaodong refugees.

When Pan Xuezhong first came over, he saw the crowd of people in the dark, and thought that he would have to toss for a long time just to get on the boat. Unexpectedly, this group of refugees was so orderly, and in less than half an hour, except for more than 20 strong men and more than 100 horses who were still on the shore, the rest of the people and materials were all quickly on the boat.

"Brother Degao, why hasn't your second brother come up yet? Hurry up and meet the students! Pan Xuezhong was very curious about this person who had organized so many refugees in such an orderly manner, and his heart was full of anticipation to meet him.

"When the horses come up, he is the last one to come up! The second brother of the student said that as long as he is still there, the people on the shore will keep their hearts at ease! Ma Ju explained with a smile.

"Horses?" When Pan Xuezhong heard this, he was a little anxious: "Brother Degao, there are so many horses, you can't fit them!" ”

Ma Ju and Wang Rui had estimated the capacity of these three ships, and they had long known that these war horses could not be brought together, and finally decided to pick some sturdy horses to take to Denglai. So, he asked, "Then look at the son, how many can you bring in the end?" ”

"Thirty horses. No more! Pan Xuezhong said decisively.

When Ma Ju heard him say this, he nodded in agreement, and then took a simple red cloth tied to a wooden strip and waved it three times at the shore.

Pan Xuezhong knew that Ma Ju was using the flag language to report the situation to the shore.

After answering the flag on the shore, Pan Xuezhong ordered someone to drive a big boat to a sea cliff, stretched out a huge wooden plank on the boat, and slowly set it up on the shore.

Wang Rui commanded the strong men to bring all the horses they picked out here, and the two young men pacified the war horses one after the other, and after two quarters of an hour, they were finally all loaded onto the boat.

"Please get your second brother on our boat!" Pan Xuezhong arranged.

"Good! He's got good stuff to bring. Childe must take a good look at it then! Ma Ju smiled mysteriously at Pan Xuezhong and several strong men behind him.

"Good stuff? What's the good stuff? Everyone was very curious, and one of the middle-aged attendants hurriedly and quietly pulled the sleeve of Lapan Xuezhong's shirt. When Pan Xuezhong stepped aside, he whispered: "Childe! The villain looks at these people quite unkindly, do you want to tell the brothers to take precautions too? ”

"Prevention? Now, it's too late. However, it doesn't hurt. Although this Liaohai is not far from Denglai, there is no one to operate the ship, and it is not easy to pass. Don't worry, Uncle Cai! Pan Xuezhong said with a confident smile.

A quarter of an hour later, Pan Xuezhong's long-inquisitive Wang Rui was finally the last to get on the boat. Along with him, there were more than a dozen bloodstained cloth bags. The blood and stench emitted by these cloth bags startled everyone on board, and they couldn't help but hide their mouths and noses and retreat.

"This is what Brother Degao said was a good thing?" Pan Xuezhong said with a frown.

"Exactly! Brother Xuezhong dare to see it? Ma Ju asked with a smug smile.

"Oh! In this way, this son must take a look! Pan Xuezhong no longer covered his nose, strode up, and opened a cloth bag by himself. He heard Ma Ju say yesterday that he knew that these people had won the head of Jiannu, so he was not surprised.

However, the rest of the Pan family turned pale with fright. Some were so frightened that they retreated, and some were panicked and touched their knives.

"Don't be afraid! It's the head of Jiannu! Pan Xuezhong said as he picked up a Jiannu's head and looked at it carefully.

After a while, he stood up and said to Ma Ju: "I can't think of it, I can't think of it!" It's really a slave head! ”

"There are more than ten bags, Brother Xuezhong will also take a look?" Ma Ju said with a smile, although he is also a scholar, he pays attention to stability and cultivation in everything. However, at this time, I am still quite proud.

"Haha, don't look at it! Brother Degao speaks, and the younger brother can still be trusted. It's just that this Jiannu's head is really stinky, and it really dirties the students' hands! Sea dogs, quickly fetch me two basins of water for the young master! Master, I have to wash it three times! Pan Xuezhong said with a proud smile.

When Pan Xuezhong washed his hands, the refugee Qingzhuang also packed up these packages containing the heads of Jiannu. Pan Xuezhong cleaned up neatly, and then came over to meet Ma Ju and Wang Rui officially.

As soon as he put away his previous charms, Zhengse arched his hand to the two and said: "The two brothers are both heroes who killed Jiannu!" The little brother is hereby salute! Since you have killed so many slaves to go to sea, I will not accept any more of my carrying silver. It can be regarded as a little bit of my Pan family's dedication to the refugees in Liaodong! ”

"Pan Gongzi is righteous! However, the carrying silver still has to be given. Otherwise, how can you do business with your son in the future? A tall and handsome young man beside Ma Ju said loudly.

This person was the last to come up, dressed as a scholar. However, looking at his appearance on the boat, he was very quick and vigorous, and his eyebrows and eyes were full of heroism.

Pan Xuezhong guessed that this person must be the second brother Wang Rui in Ma Ju's mouth.

When Ma Ju saw Pan Xuezhong coming, he introduced the two of them one by one, and the two officially greeted each other. After seeing the ceremony, Pan Xuezhong ordered the Pan family boatmen to sail, and the more than 200 fugitives from Liaodong led by Wang Ruimaju were finally able to cross the Liaohai Sea.

As the boatmen shouted and raised the sails, the huge sails were puffed into the wind, and the three large ships sailed off the shore one after another......

Pan Xuezhong had already talked with Ma Ju about falling in love, otherwise he would not have come today, and today he saw Wang Rui's excellent organizational skills, especially this pile of real Jiannu heads, which made Pan Xuezhong even more impressed by Wang Rui Ma Ju and others. When even smiled and invited: "Yesterday, I was fortunate to have Brother Ma give wine, and today the students will prepare a small banquet, and dare to invite the two brothers to drink and talk!" How many of you brothers, how about a boiled wine Liaohai? ”

Ma Ju and Wang Rui did not squirm, they responded very happily, and after giving the order to the other two ships to settle down, they followed Pan Xuezhong into the cabin.

The three of them had just sat down for a while, and before the pot of tea was finished, the Pan family began to serve the food.

It is said to be a small banquet, but for Wang Rui, who has eaten a large pot of horse meat for several days, it is a proper luxury feast. Two plates of braised vegetables, a steamed sea fish, and a fried meat with beans, plus a green vegetable, made Wang Rui have an appetite.

Ma Ju and Pan Xuezhong have both been selected for showmanship, and they have to say a lot of poetry and songs. Wang Rui didn't say anything, just buried himself in eating. However, he has been the boss for a long time ago, and he rarely has to socialize in restaurants. Therefore, although he eats a lot, his appearance is not ugly.

Just as he was eating elegantly, Pan Xuezhong suddenly asked, "What does Brother Wang think of the current situation in Liaodong?" ”

Wang Rui was stunned: The situation in Liaodong? For him, a person who has traveled back in the future, it couldn't be clearer.

However, he didn't want to say more, just said: "The younger brother has just come from Kunlun, and he doesn't know much about the situation in Liaohai. Please also ask Brother Pan for advice! ”

"Oh!" , Pan Xuezhong is not polite, he has been running the northern sea trade route of Guanning Dongjiang and North Korea for a long time, and he has dealings with all forces, and his knowledge is different from ordinary people. Immediately said: "In this land of Liaodong, the power of Jiannu is the strongest, but my Ming Dynasty and the opposition don't care about it, and always think it is a disease of ringworm and scabies." I'm afraid that this ringworm scabies disease, he will become a big trouble for me day by day! When the Barbarian Yuan Dynasty was in its early prominence, how could the Great Song Dynasty take it seriously? However, I never thought that after Yashan, the Han Society would fall, and it would be bloody everywhere! What a sorrow! ”

After finishing speaking, Pan Xuezhong shook his head and sighed.

"Brother Pan is too worried? This Jiannu lives in a land of suffering, with Guanning in the west and the Dongjiang River in the south. Besides, that barbarian yuan, wasn't he also beaten away by Emperor Taizu Gao and his successor Emperor Chengzu? Wang Rui asked in disbelief.

However, he was secretly surprised in his heart, this person had this opinion at this time, it was not simple!

"Guan Ningjun? Brother Wang is not, now the Guanning army has almost become the private soldiers of each general, and it is okay to defend the city, but it is not possible to return to the land. Besides, this Dongjiang River is narrow and has few people, and there is little support from the government and the opposition. Hey, who knows how long it will last? Pan Xuezhong sighed while raising his wine glass and said with a smile: "Drink, drink!" Eliminate eternal sorrow with you! ”

"Brother Pan is high-minded, and the younger brother agrees very much. I don't know if Brother Tai has ever known the people of Denglai Mansion, so I can ask Brother Pan to introduce me! Wang Rui also raised his wine glass and said very bluntly.

"Well said, well said! These hundreds of real slave heads, even if you are a general, it is not too much to be a guerrilla. However, who to find to operate and how to repay the merits, we also need to think a lot! Pan Xuezhong thought for a while before replying.

"So, it's quite difficult? The general guerrilla, a certain dare not think, can find a place to guard, be a hundred households, and settle these villagers, and it has been wished! Wang Rui said a little disappointed, and quickly lowered his expectations.

"Brother Wang is a great talent, and there are so many real slave heads in hand, but it is simple to be a thousand households. A certain Shi Dagongzi, who happened to know the Tongzhi family in Dengzhou, thought that he could ask the Tongzhi to introduce him on his behalf! Pan Xuezhong comforted the two.

Oh, there are people in this court who are good officials! Unexpectedly, this Pan Gongzi still knows the second generation of officials in Dengzhou Mansion. Wang Ruima was happy in the hearts of the two, and immediately borrowed flowers to offer Buddha, and toasted Pan Xuezhong again.

Pan Xuezhong drank it happily, thought for a while and said, "It's just that there are too many beheaded heads!" ”

Too much? Doesn't it mean that the more heads you get, the greater the credit? Ma Ju and Wang Rui both widened their eyes in confusion.
