Chapter 361: Clearing the Pirates

Boris said: "Would you like to work in the Ministry of Commerce and Trade, or in a bank?" If you want to go, I can talk to Cui Dao, there should be no problem. ”

The guard was very excited, and he was a little incoherent: "Yes, of course I do." Thank you, Mr. Bao, I would very much like to go. ”

Boris asked: "What's your name?" How old is it? ”

"Report to the commander, my name is Chen Sanshi, and I am twenty-five years old this year."

Zhang Hong answered next to him: "I said Xiao Chen, when I return to Qishan Island, I will go to the newly established equipment department to be the minister." I think you're a talent, so you might as well follow me to the Equipment Department. When the time comes, you will be my deputy, and how about I promote you to be an officer at the level of squad leader? ”

Chen Sanshi was a little dilemma, the Ministry of Commerce and Trade and the bank were of course very good, but the Equipment Department was also a high-ranking department in the escort team. And I am reluctant to leave the brothers who get along day and night, which is really difficult to choose!

Boris smiled and said, "Xiao Chen, you don't have to make a decision in a hurry, think about it first, and wait until you return to Qishan Island to answer me." I'd still prefer you to stay in the Guards, and it's a good idea for you to go to the Equipment Department. As the saying goes: 'Fertilizer and water do not flow into outsiders' fields', hahaha! ”

Chen Sanshi breathed a sigh of relief, and he said firmly: "Mr. Bao, I have decided, since you and Minister Zhang value it so much, I can't be a white-eyed wolf and leave the escort team." Besides, I was reluctant to brothers, so I decided to follow Minister Zhang and go to the equipment department. ”

Zhang Hong was very happy, he patted Chen Sanshi on the shoulder: "Okay, good, he is a man with affection and righteousness." I'll go and talk to your captain, and you'll follow me from now on. ”

Boris said: "Xiao Chen, the people from the Ministry of Commerce and Trade will come in a while, you cooperate with them to count the treasures, and then follow Zhang Hong." ”

Chen Sanshi was very excited, he saluted the two of them and said loudly: "Promise to complete the task." ”

After a while, the three of them heard the noise outside the house, and it must have been a lot of people.

Boris pushed open the door and saw five or six men from the Ministry of Commerce standing in the courtyard, some with abacus and some with account books.

When a young man saw Boris coming out, he smiled and arched his hand: "Mr. Bao, under Cui Daoming, is the cousin of Minister Cui Daoshu. This time, on behalf of the Ministry of Commerce and Trade, I will follow you to the north to open up markets. If you have anything to do, please just ask us, and we will do our best. ”

Boris saw that this young man was tall and a little similar to Cui Daoshu, and he should be a member of the Cui family.

Boris nodded: "Excuse me, there is a cellar in the house, which stores the treasures of the pirate masters, please count them as soon as possible, and then we will transport these things to the ship and continue to clear the nearby pirates." ”

Cui Daoming said happily: "Mr. Bao doesn't have to be polite, we will start counting immediately, and it is estimated that there will be results tomorrow." ”

Boris also introduced Chen Sanshi to the personnel of the Ministry of Commerce and Trade, and asked Chen Sanshi to supervise the inventory work on behalf of the escort team.

There was no objection to the people, and they entered the house, followed the ladder into the cellar, and immediately began to take stock.

---------------- ---------------------- -------------------

The next morning, the inventory was completed. The guards packed all the contents of the cellar into wooden crates, sealed them, and began to load them on trucks and carry them to the ships.

Chen Sanshi and Cui Daoming found Boris and handed him the list.

Boris looked at it carefully for a while, and then sighed: "This Zheng Fa is a big tyrant!" He has amassed 170,000 yuan of treasure, but it is all cheaper for us. ”

Chen Sanshi continued: "Mr. Bao, these are only preliminary estimates, and they are not very accurate. Some treasures such as calligraphy and paintings, bronzes, and curiosities have been estimated at very low prices. If you take these things to cities like Jinling, Hangzhou, and Bianliang, these things will sell for a very high price. ”

Boris said: "We don't care about this, as long as you have a clear inventory, we will transport the things back to Qishan Island." As for how to deal with it, let's let Cui Daoshu have a headache. ”

Guo Jintao came over and said, "Old Bao, I have already put more than 80 captives in the cabin. When the treasure is on board, we can set off. ”

Boris said with a smile: "Lao Guo, I don't have to worry about you doing things." In a moment we will set out and sweep north. Do you know how An Dalang is now? ”

Guo Jintao said: "Da Lang is indeed a character, after he entered the small black house the day before yesterday, he fell asleep. He slept for a day and a night, and did not even eat.

The next morning, when he woke up, he ate a big meal, and then he began to do physical exercises, doing push-ups, sit-ups, squats, and handstands until he had no strength at all, and then he stopped.

Then he fell asleep until morning, and when he got up, he began to eat and drink, and sang songs and lyrics while eating, and seemed to be very happy. ”

Boris said helplessly: "Lao Guo, let him out, it seems that the little black house has no effect on him at all." ”

Guo Jintao said happily: "Okay, I'll release him in a while." ”

Everyone was busy all morning, and the money and seized supplies and food from the island were transported onto the ship.

Cui Daoming walked over and said to Boris: "Mr. Bao, this island is in a good location, we should make use of it." If a supply point is established here, it will be of great effect on our Seven Seas Company's control of the entire Bohai Bay in the future. ”

Boris nodded and said, "You're right, we'll discuss this issue when we return to Qushan Island." If the board agrees, we can set up a foothold here next year. ”

Cui Daoming said with a smile: "Mr. Bao, there is good news, don't we want to set up a shop in Suzhou, Liao State?" When we counted Zheng Fa's treasures, we found several house deeds, all of which were shops and residences in Suzhou. It is estimated that they are all properties purchased by Zheng Fa in Suzhou, and now they are all ours, haha. ”

Boris secretly thought that the Khitan people who established the Liao State were indeed uneducated, and named the Dalian region in later generations directly as Suzhou, thinking that the Khitan people admired the prosperity of the south of the Yangtze River very much, and moved Suzhou directly to the Liaodong Peninsula.

Boris said: "We first cleared all the nearby islands, and then we went to Suzhou to take over Zheng Fa's shops and residences, and then set up our Seven Seas company base there. ”

Everyone boarded the warship with a smile and laughter, and Guo Jintao gave the order to set sail.

The fleet set off in an orderly manner and headed north.

Boris was on the deck of the flagship, chatting with Zhang Hong, when suddenly someone tapped him on the shoulder.

Boris looked back and saw Andalo standing behind him with a grin.

Boris asked, "How does it feel to close a little dark room?" ”

An Dalang said very stinkyly: "Haha, Lao Tzu is well-informed, and he is a warrior who crawled out of the sea of corpses and blood." Such a low-level punishment as Guan Xiaoheiwu has no effect on Lao Tzu. ”

Boris punched An Dalang: "You just blow it, wait until you return to Qishan Island, and see how the boss cleans you up." ”

An Dalang asked, "Where are we going now?" ”

Boris said: "According to the captives, the three and four masters of the pirates were entrenched on several islands in the north with some people. We pushed them all and cleaned them up. ”

-------------- ---------------------- ------------------

Three days passed, and Boris led the fleet to clear four pirate-entrenched islands. This time Boris and the officers learned the lessons of the last landing, and asked the bombardiers to bring the tightly wrapped* ashore and throw them into the midst of the pirates, quickly crushing the pirates' formation.

In total, they killed more than 100 pirates and captured 246 prisoners. More than 60,000 pieces of money and goods were seized, as well as a lot of food and supplies.

The third and fourth masters of the pirates resisted stubbornly and were all killed by the guards. The Zhengfa pirate gang was wiped out, and there were no pirates left in the entire Bohai Bay.

On deck, An Dalang solemnly paid tribute to his brothers who had been killed by pirates last fall.

Officers of all levels of the escort attended the memorial ceremony, and everyone lit incense and candles to those who died last year, and respectfully paid respectful respects to their spiritual seats.

An Dalang said loudly: "Brothers, we have cleaned up all the enemies, and the great revenge will be avenged, you can go to reincarnation with peace of mind." ”

Boris walked up to An Dalang and said with emotion: "Da Lang, thinking of the bloody battle on the sea ship last year, it is really like a world away!" If it weren't for the brothers working together and fighting bravely, we would probably be all finished. ”

An Dalang said categorically: "Our brother Jiren has his own natural appearance, and he will live a long life." Lao Tzu is about to become a father, and in the future, I will marry a few more concubines, strive to have a large number of children, and spread the branches and leaves for us to settle down and pass on the lineage. ”

Boris smiled: "Da Lang, your ambitions are really ambitious! If you still want to marry a few concubines, aren't you afraid that Xia Rongniang will be jealous? ”

An Dalang said confidently: "It's okay, Lao Tzu wants to marry a concubine, Xia Rongniang doesn't dare to object." This is the majesty of the head of the family, and you don't understand it. ”

Boris shook his head: "I don't understand, I just don't understand, why do women in this era always go against the grain?" ”

An Dalang asked, "By the way, Xiao Liuzi, how are you doing with that girl named Zhou Xiangyun?" Did you take her down? ”

Boris frowned: "Da Lang, I have no interest in that Zhou Xiangyun, it seems that my sister-in-law is busy in vain." ”

An Dalang asked curiously: "Sixth son, that Zhou Xiangyun is good-looking, you really haven't taken a fancy to her?" ”

Boris said expressionlessly: "She looks good, and she is second only to Fu Hongyu, Qi Jiuniang, and Cui Yinger on the island." But I don't have any feelings for her, so I'm not in the mood to develop with her. ”
