924 The rabbit didn't come
When it was dark, Zheng Zhilong walked out of the ordinary house, looked up at the last sunset in the western sky, and couldn't help but say with emotion: "With the imperial court as the backer and the emperor's support, I am still afraid of what will not be united!" ”
After saying that, his waist straightened and he walked away quickly.
In the house, Wang Chengen instructed his subordinates: "According to what Liang Xiaozhen said, start from the surrounding area of the Governor's Palace!" ”
One of the main purposes of going south this time is to investigate the person who is like a shopkeeper who has leaked the news and sow discord inside and outside. Liu Xiang himself must know, but his third master, that is, Liang Xiaozhen, is not clear, and guesses that it may have something to do with the Governor's Mansion. That's why Wang Chengen said this.
On the sea, Liu Xiang's lair, in the Juyi Hall, Liu Xiang strode in, came to the main seat, and then turned his head to look at the still empty position in the Juyi Hall, and couldn't help but smile proudly.
It's no wonder that he, in the past, although he was also a sea thief, he was either pressed by Li Kuiqi or Zheng Yiguan, and he always thought that he could one day be a sea overlord, but he could only think about it in his heart. But now it's happening!
But this time, when he was thinking about entertaining those people for a while, and enjoying the majesty of the number one boss on the sea, he saw a subordinate hurriedly appear at the door, saw him there, and hurriedly came over and said, "Great boss, just now I heard that you are going to hold a banquet?" ”
"Well, what's wrong?" When Liu Xiang heard this, he frowned and asked.
When the man heard that this was indeed the case, he couldn't help but admonish with a bitter face: "Big boss, most of the food and materials that our island has stored for many years have been consumed, and we can't waste any more!" ”
"What?" When Liu Xiang heard this, he said a little angrily: "Don't you know that Lao Tzu wants to have a long face?" ”
"The big boss, then it's okay to give them less rations for each ship!" When the subordinate heard this, he immediately added this sentence, which was the main purpose of his visit this time, "So many people are on our island, and the food and drink are all paid by us, and the daily consumption is really a bit much!" ”
Liu Xiang listened, thought about it for a while, and finally waved his hand and said: "No, it is estimated that Zheng Yiguan has been here for a few days, so he gritted his teeth and persisted, don't let people say that Lao Tzu's words are not counted!" ”
Seeing that he said it categorically, the subordinate had no choice but to push it down.
So, within half an hour, the Juyi Hall was overcrowded again, and pirate leaders from all walks of life pushed cups and changed lamps, praising Liu Xiang's boldness and laughing at Zheng Yiguan's fate, which can be described as a joy for the guests and hosts!
However, after another two days passed, there was still no trace of Zheng Yiguan's entry into the water division, which made the pirates in charge of logistics a little panicked, and had to find Liu Xiang again, put out the specific number of materials stored, the specific amount of daily consumption, etc., one by one, and clearly told Liu Xiang that if this continues, everyone will be hungry when they turn back.
When Liu Xiang saw it, he was very helpless, so he had to agree to cut the supply of each ship by one percent.
So, there was such a scene on the dock. When Liu Xiang's men pulled nine truckloads of supplies to the dock and notified the pirates to come and collect them, there was such a conflict.
"Hey, why are there nine cars, and another car will be sent later?"
"No, there's only nine cars!"
"What? There are only nine cars, what does that mean? Is there another car that has been eaten by you or is it greedy? ”
"The above orders come down, and it will be nine cars in the future!"
"Impossible, Liu Da is a bold person, the words he says, the saliva that spews out, are all nails. You must be greedy, right? ”
"You think we're a bottomless pit, we can't eat it all. Zheng Yiguan doesn't know when he will come, of course he has to save a little, this is what the big boss means, if you don't believe it, you can find someone to ask! ”
“……”
Everyone is a person with eyes and brains, and they do know that after so many days, Zheng Yiguan's sailors have not come for a long time, and the consumption of food and materials is indeed a bit much. Thinking about it, it's just one percent less, forget it.
However, a few days later, Zheng Yiguan's sailor still had no shadow. There was no way, so only eight truckloads of supplies were given. This incident immediately attracted a lot of complaints, but most of them were cursing Zheng Yiguan.
"Isn't Zheng Yiguan so majestic, how did he become a turtle with a shrunken head?"
"Shouldn't it fall on the stomach of a, softened her hands and feet, can't come, haha!"
"Come quickly, brothers, give him a good time, otherwise, when you catch him, you want him to know that you can't survive and die!"
“……”
No matter how they cursed, even if there were many pirates on the dock who were like Wangfu stones, looking at the sea and looking at the autumn water, they just couldn't look forward to Zheng Yiguan's sailors, and the supply of materials was reduced to two carts, and at this time, many people's spearheads turned around and began to complain about the landlord.
"It's only two cars, how can I live, Lao Tzu is mixed at sea, don't you just want to eat meat in a big piece, drink wine in a big bowl, and live a happy life!"
"Yes, if you want to be frugal like now, what else do you mess with, go back to the shore, and don't worry about losing your head!"
"What do you mean by Liu Da Dang, he patted his chest at the time, and his words were so good, but now, look, you see, they are all starving to death!"
"That's it, you don't have the strength to say anything! Do you want to be the boss and look like the boss? ”
“……”
These rumors and rumors made the people on Liu Xiang's side very angry, and they ate and drank for nothing, but the result was good, and they didn't appreciate it, and they even got infamy. For this reason, some of them had a hot temper and scolded back on the spot, and finally a conflict broke out. Such a thing, although it was quickly suppressed, happened more than once, and in the end, it inevitably reached Liu Xiang's ears and was put on the bright side.
Liu Xiang vaguely felt that his prestige among pirates seemed to have fallen back, even worse than before, attracting a lot of scolding, which made him very angry.
"What the hell is Liang Xiaozhen doing?" Liu Xiang scolded, "It's been so long, if something suddenly happens to Zheng Yiguan, he should send someone over to inform him!" ”
"I don't want to do it yet, when I come back, I want him to look good!"
“……”
Scolding and scolding, Zheng Yiguan can't come for a long time, I really can't wait here, otherwise the final outcome of all the pirates will be starvation to death! Therefore, Liu Xiang had to gather all the pirate leaders of the alliance and the governor of Hongyi, Putmans, and tell them that instead of waiting for the rabbit, it is better to take the initiative.
Originally, it was planned well, just waiting on this island, when Zheng Yiguan came, everyone rushed up, and he could be eliminated, but now he has to take the initiative to fight, which makes many pirates unhappy. But there was no way, because the expected rabbit was delayed.
Just when they made a decision, the three masters finally rushed back.
