On a summer afternoon in Guangzhou, it was hot and humid. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info but at first glance when he saw the person who had been dead for many days in theory, Fan Jin's spine was still chilling. Fan Tong, a man who had theoretically been dead for more than a year, appeared in front of him again, Fan Jin was surprised at first, and then felt that he might have fallen into some trap.

Fan Tong sneered: "Oh? I can't see that Jin Zai cares about his sister-in-law, it's my blessing to have a brother like you. She's fine now, you don't have to worry. I know that you all want me to die, and unfortunately let you down. The Sea Dragon King said that my life was too bad to accept me, so let me come back first and settle the old debts. ”

There were already people hiding in the wing room in advance, and with Fan Jin talking to Fan Tong, these people had already rushed out. Their movements were extremely fast, and before Fan Jin could escape, a few hard things had already resisted the back of his heart, and the slightest movement would naturally stab him.

When this courtyard was chosen, it valued its seclusion, and even if it did kill people or shout here, the surrounding neighbors might not be able to hear it. And even if you hear it, whether you are willing to meddle is another matter.

The other party did not come up and killed him, which made Fan Jin feel that there was still a possibility of communication between the two, and raised his hand to show that he was not hostile, and there was no fear on his face.

"Brother Tong, I haven't seen you for many days, and when you meet, you will send a big gift, and the younger brother is flattered. I'll hear what you're going to do. In addition, I want to tell you one thing, the third sister is no longer your mother, since she took away her fields from the village and sent her to Guangzhou, she has nothing to do with you. If there is anything we two will say, don't embarrass a woman. ”

"It doesn't matter if it's okay, it's not you who has the final say with her. Since she is my wife, she will not have nothing to do with me, she is my Fan Tong's person in life, and I am Fan Tong's ghost in death, the rules of several lifetimes are like this, and no one can change it. Of course we're going to speak, but not here, let's go, take him to a new place to make it clear. ”

A person took a rope and tied Fan Jin's arm, and someone stuffed a hemp core into Fan Jin's mouth, and then put a pocket under it and put the person inside. As soon as the person was put inside, it was pitch black all around, and he could only feel that he was being lifted up, and he didn't know where to go.

If you lose the lead in a hasty attack, it is not a wise choice to resist. Singles don't suffer immediate losses, so they have to take one step at a time. Thinking that Sa Shizhong would not let himself run around, as long as he did not return to Safu at the appointed time, he would definitely send someone to find him, hoping that by then, he would meet rescuers......

In his thoughts, the person had been thrown on something, and with the sound of the wheels turning, Fan Jin was probably sure that he was on the cart. As the car moved forward, he could faintly hear the footsteps around him being very chaotic, and it seemed that there were quite a few people. After counting and estimating the time, and after about a meal, the car stopped, and the person was lifted out of the car again.

When he was thrown to the ground again, someone finally ripped the sack off his head, and then a pungent smell rushed into his nose, choking him with a cough.

The eyes gradually adjusted to the surrounding environment, and found that the location they were in should be a makeshift stackhouse by the sea. Due to the large cargo throughput of the Pearl River Wharf, this kind of stack house is available at the wharf, and the goods in it will not be put for too long, and the management is relatively chaotic. The government regularly collects taxes, and others do not interfere too much.

This storage room is for fish goods, and the fish baskets are placed around, and the spoiled fish emits a rancid smell, mixed with the fishy smell of fresh fish, and the smoker wants to vomit. Looking sideways, I saw Liang Pandi, who was also tied up with five flowers and had his sack removed.

Because of sweating, her hair has been locked, but fortunately, she looks fine, but I don't know how she was restrained by her whole body of effort. A big man picked the hemp walnuts from the mouths of the two, and then said to a man: "Lin Fang, the person has already brought it." ”

A man's voice rang out, not loud, but majestic. "Our luck is not bad this time, a governor's staff, it takes some effort to pick him up, I didn't expect it to be so easy. Come on, hold the lamp. ”

The torches and oil lamps were lit, and Fan Jin saw clearly that opposite him, on a fish basket, a man in his forties was sitting there, looking at himself. The man was not very tall, his skin was black and red, and his appearance was not very good, but his two eyes were extremely bright.

There was a long scar on his face, which added a bit of murder. He was dressed in the same tatters as the other shackles he had seen, but a shark skin sheath and a gold-swallowing dagger under his ribs proved that this person's identity was not as simple as that of a fisherman. Beside him stood a dozen large men, all of them strong and fierce-looking, all armed with weapons at their waists.

A place like a dock is a mixed land, and fighting or killing people is unavoidable. The people who beg for a living here are often equipped with weapons to defend themselves, and as long as they don't make a big incident, the government won't care. But unlike those splashes with tattoos on their bodies and rampage, these big men are not very eye-catching, but the momentum on their bodies is not comparable to those splashes. If you want to compare it, those splashes can only be regarded as domestic dogs, and these people should be counted as wild wolves.

Fan Tong stood beside the man in charge, pointed at Fan Jin and said, "He is Fan Jin, and that slut is my wife." ”

The man shook his head, "Brother Tong, it's not right for you to say that, everyone is a family, don't say it so ugly." Go and untie the ropes of your own woman. Although it is said that if you don't tie up, you can't become a husband and wife, but if you keep tying up, you can't become a husband and wife. ”

"Lin Fang, this woman knows kung fu ......"

"I know, but so what. The third sister is a person on the scene and can't do half-tone things, now that we are a few big men, will she still mess around to the point that everyone can't get off the stage? Besides, Fan Gongzi is still here, and he is speechless when he fights, and it will not be good to hurt our Xiucai. Third sister, isn't that the truth? ”

Fan Tong seemed to be very afraid of this leader, and after listening to the order, he came behind Liang Pandi and picked her rope with a dagger. Liang Pandi sat up first, gently rubbed his arms and ankles, and looked at the man vigilantly.

The man smiled at Brother Liang Pan, "Third sister, I'm Lin Feng, and my brothers call me Lin Fang, but you see, where do I have fangs?" The fourth sister is my mother-in-law, everyone is their own person, it was a joke just now, don't care. ”

"Lin Feng? I know, the heroes of the sea call the owner of the ship a fang, you are the sea dragon king Lin Fenglin's uncle? The fourth sister is in your hands now? I know your name, and I know that you are powerful, and we ordinary people can't beat you Sea Dragon King. But I want to warn you, now it is not on the sea, but in Guangzhou, even if you are really the Dragon King of the East China Sea, you will be under the control of the Chenghuang Land here. My brother-in-law is the catcher of the government office, and we are doing business in partnership with Jinyiwei, if we are missing for too long, Jinyiwei will not be good if things get deadlocked. You take your Yangguan Road, I cross my single-plank bridge, isn't it good that everyone's well water does not interfere with the river water? I won't spoil you, and you won't mess with our lives, why should good porcelain break bricks. If it's my business, then let Jin Tsai leave, and I'll talk to you if there's anything to say. ”

The man smiled slightly, "Third sister, everyone is close to each other, you don't have to think too much, although the means of inviting you here are a little rude, but we really have no malicious intentions." ...... This is Fan Jin, Fan Gongzi, who has been famous recently, right? The silver folding method seems to be the idea you came up with, and it is precisely because of Fan Gongzi that Yin Zhengmao's money and food are guaranteed. The third sister and you are very capable, with you here, the officers and soldiers of Zhaoqing do not have to go hungry. However, when the officers and soldiers have a full stomach, they have more strength to kill, and it is me who they want to kill, so we are not the well water and the river water, you two...... It's already out of bounds. ”

Fan Tong glared at Liang Pandi, "Slut, Lin Fang is our leader and fourth brother-in-law!" The fourth sister is much more affectionate and righteous than you, when my boat capsized, it was my brother-in-law who saved me. In the past few years, I have been working with my brother-in-law, watching my fourth sister give advice to my brother-in-law, sheltering from the wind and rain. You're doing something sorry for me, stealing a man at home! also helped the government to deal with us, if it weren't for the fourth sister's face, I would have killed you now! ”

"Brother Tong, don't say such hurtful words." The man stopped Fan Tong and smiled at Fan Jin again, "I forgot to introduce myself, my surname is Lin, my name is Lin Feng, everyone calls me Lin Fang, or the big boss." Actually, I'm just a rough guy who fishes, and according to the name of the Ming Dynasty, we are Shuhu. He was not allowed to go ashore for the rest of his life, was not allowed to take the imperial examination, and was not allowed to marry with the people on the land, which was no better than a beggar's household. I am the leader of these households, I am a regimental leader on the sea, I can't compare to Fan Gongzi, you are the governor's staff, if you send it in the future, maybe you can become a big official. In the future, if you get into the jinshi, remember to take care of my relative. ”

"Lin Feng?" Fan Jin nodded, "It turned out to be the owner of Ship Lin, and he was disrespectful." What is the scenery of Nanao Island? ”

"Don't be so polite, according to the name of the government, call us to be widows, I am the chief Lin they say. Now my bonus is still hanging at the gate of the city, and if you catch me, you can exchange it for three thousand taels of silver. ”

Speaking of this, Lin Feng laughed and touched his head with his hand, "My Lin family has been poor for generations, and people say that the sea is Fujian's field, and in Fujian, many people can't grow fields." Like me, I don't have any land at home, and I rely on fishing to make a living. My father has never seen what ten taels of silver looks like in his life, but my head is worth three thousand taels of silver. ”

Fan Jin looked at Fan Tong, "Brother Tong, people say that Shibei should be impressed in three days, and this should be true to you." I only knew that you were a businessman before, but I really didn't expect you to have the courage to eat this bowl of rice. Kill officials and seize the mansion and occupy Nanao Island, if Hong Chengen knows that you are related to the owner of the Lin boat, he will not dare to bully our Xiaofanzhuang. ”

In fact, the Ming Dynasty has been in trouble since the Hongwu era, and institutions such as the Bei Wei Command Department have also been established since the beginning of the Ming Dynasty. But the real large-scale outbreak came from the Ningbo tribute competition in the second year of Jiajing. When it was the most serious, the Japanese invaders eroded Zhejiang, Zhizhi, Fujian and other provinces, and the land was full of smoke, and the price of the first level of the Japanese in the southeast was almost comparable to that of the northern captives on the nine sides for a period of time.

It was not until Hu Zongxian, the governor of Zhezhi, led by Yu Long, Qi Hu and other generals that he attacked and suppressed the army, and it was not until the opening of the Yuegang of Emperor Longqing that the trouble was alleviated. But these sea thieves have not really been wiped out, whether it is the defeated samurai of Fuso, or the bankrupt maritime merchants, or the fishermen like Lin Feng who have no livelihood, they still have to rely on plundering to maintain their livelihood.

After the death of Wang Zhi, the old shipowner who commanded the two oceans, the maritime forces were divided, and there was no particularly brilliant figure to integrate the heroes of all parties. All sides are self-reliant, not subordinate to each other, and the division of strength is weak, and it is difficult for a single force to threaten the Ming Haijiang as in the past.

The old man Tai that Lin Feng followed before was considered a relatively powerful force among the bandits. After the death of Tai Laoweng, Lin Feng took over his troops, and annexed many stragglers at sea, gradually developing strength, and gradually had a tendency to win the new generation of sea kings.

The Wufeng Banner has fallen, and a new generation of Linzi Banner is about to be provoked. Since they are pirates, most of the traditional social rules cannot be counted on, and the pirates believe in the word power in the final analysis. The reason why Lin Feng's name is remembered is that in order to declare his power, he did a very bold thing: send troops to capture South Australia.

Nan'ao Island is located at the junction of Fujian and Guangdong, outside the mouth of the Hanjiang River, where the late emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty used to be his palace, and is a very important supply base on the sea. Lin Feng drove his troops to the border of the two provinces, which was tantamount to openly shouting to the Ming army, and led the men and horses to plunder Chaoshan several times, and many villages were said to have been killed without a few alive, and the people of Guangdong government were regarded as a very famous fierce god

Some people have already said that he is a demon who is two or three heads and six arms in height, swallowing clouds and spitting mist, if you don't see it in person, it is hard to imagine that such an honest fisherman is the most famous pirate leader in the Ming Dynasty.

Of course, it is not a fortunate thing to be approached by such a fierce god, but since the other party is willing to talk, there is always hope. Fan Jin bowed to Lin Feng

"Captain Lin, since you are a person on the scene, you must be reasonable. Whoever serves the bowl and who serves is in charge, I don't need to say this truth, you also know it in your own heart. Since I am a citizen of the Ming Dynasty, it is my duty to run military rations for the imperial court or find a way. What's more, the Ming Dynasty is full of talents, so what about Xiaosheng? If it is only for the purpose of discounting silver or running military rations, it is necessary to work the shipowner to drive, is Fan's face a little too big? ”

Lin Feng said: "What Fan Gongzi said is that Lin is not an unreasonable person. You are a citizen of the Ming Dynasty, and it is natural for you to contribute to the government. But you are an officer and soldier, we are thieves, we are in the same situation, we do our own thing, shouldn't we also be? I am not here today to settle accounts with you, but to talk to you about cooperation. Although there are some problems with the way we invited you to come, I hope you understand that Lin has no ill will towards you. At that time, when our people at sea were at their peak, it was when the old ship owner Wang was a big fang, and at that time, the Yi people in the east and west oceans still had to be respectful in front of us and act according to the old shipmaster's orders. ”

"But such a majestic old shipowner still inevitably fell to the ground in the end. I think the reason for this is: he lacks the help of a scholar. If you want to do great things, you can't do it without studying, my family is poor, and I don't have the money to send me to study, read and write, this is a helpless thing. I can only hope to find a few more readers to help me, we can't use those nerds who can only read to death, what we need is really capable readers. Fan Gongzi, I don't know any big truth, I have only heard people talk about the ancients, and I know that Emperor Liu invited Zhuge Liang out of the mountain when he visited the thatched house, I will learn from Emperor Liu today, and ask Fan Gongzi to come out of the mountain to help me. ”
