Part 4 Maritime Silk Road 9, Turning the Tide
The Western soldiers opened the way with arquebuses, and rushed out with the merchants behind them, and the conflict with the strong men in black was about to break out......
Just as Zhu Hui was about to step forward, suddenly, there was a sound of a gong opening not far away, and Li Dan, who was already half frightened to death, hurriedly grabbed him and said tremblingly: "The master of the official mansion is here, let's leave quickly." γFengyun Reading Network. γβ
Zhu Hui also breathed a sigh of relief, just about to leave this place of right and wrong, he found that the sound of the gong was getting farther and farther away, obviously not coming here, and the conflict in front of him was inevitable, so he lay in Li Dan's ear and whispered a few words, which scared Li Dan so much that his legs became weak and he collapsed to the ground.
At this time, the man in black was about to kill in front of the battle, the Westerners did not dare to use force easily, and retreated backwards with their arquebuses, at this critical moment, and they didn't know the courage from there, Zhu Hui shouted "Stop!" In the blink of an eye, they were in the middle of the two......
As soon as the Westerners saw that there was someone helping, they all retreated to the Red Hair Pavilion.
"Who dares to be so bold?" A man in black asked.
Zhu Hui smiled at them and replied without fear: "Liu Daguan knows me, let him come and speak." β
"How can Liu Daguan have the kung fu to take care of you, quickly get out of the way of grandpa, don't block the way of your wealth!"
"No matter who you are, the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, on the ground of Yuegang, give us some face!"
β¦β¦
After hearing their bastard words, Zhu Hui was angry from his heart, facing the shameless people who got into the eyes of money, there was really nothing to say, his hands clenched into his fists, his eyes were slightly closed, and there were words in his mouth:
Standing in the sky and silent, there is no great way to return......
Several strong men rushed to Zhu Hui's approach, only to see him gently shake his body, one shook Wujijing, two shook Taiji, three shook mixed qi, water and fire, and stored dantian......
After several fights in a row, the gangsters all showed their steel knives and surrounded Zhu Hui.
At the beginning of Chaochao, Sanqing was opened, and Hongjun Immortal Ancestor was passed down in one line......
Zhu Hui meditated and breathed, standing still, his body was full of Haoran's energy, and he said calmly: "Everyone, for the sake of the old and the young, if you don't want to hurt people again, quickly find Liu Qian to talk." β
"What kind of thing are you, you dare to call our God of Wealth by name!" As soon as the words fell, the group of people danced their steel knives and slashed towards Zhu Hui together.
The waist shakes the arms and shakes the mixed Yuansheng, and Feihong spreads his wings to set the Qianyuan......
I saw Zhu Hui shaking his waist, rising into the air, standing on their blades, as if the Roc spread his wings, with lightning speed, he swept his palms around, and a large piece of Qi Brush fell.
Some gangsters who refused to admit defeat got up from the ground, re-opened the formation and besieged again, Zhu Hui angrily discharged the dantian, shook his head lightly at them, and read: Who understands the mysteries of life, Taishang Laojun leaves a mantra!
The gangsters who got up from the ground did not dare to attack easily, and surrounded Zhu Hui, looking for an opportunity to attack, so Zhu Hui shouted loudly, stretched out his arms, and was quite angry, scaring them into taking a few steps back.
At this time, someone was about to use a hidden weapon, but the flying knife had not yet been taken off, and suddenly someone shouted in the sky: "Who is so bold!" It is a crime to dare to besiege the general banner of the Fusi of Jinyi Weibei Town and block the Jinyi Wei errand! β
When this group of guys who usually bully the soft and are afraid of the hard heard it, it was still the accent of the locals, and they were all so frightened that they hugged their heads and ran away, and after a while, they all ran away.
After a long time, Li Dan climbed down from a big tree, pulled Zhu Hui into the Red Hair Pavilion, and introduced him to Felipe.
Zhu Hui couldn't even understand a word of the conversation between Li Dan and the Westerners, but he found that everyone was giving him a thumbs up, and after a while, they came to shake hands with him......
Back in the guest room, Felipe carefully checked the contract brought back by Li Dan, and found that the price given by the other party was not much different from his expectations, and he was about to thank Zhu Hui, when he suddenly remembered the gunshot just now, and was very worried about the safety of the goods, he decided to go to the dock to have a look.
Under the protection of a team of musketeers, Zhu Hui and Li Dan accompanied Felipe out of the door, without any trouble, they trotted all the way to Hailong Wharf, and found that the Manila galleon was safe and sound, but it was controlled by the officers of Haicheng County, and no matter how Li Dan pleaded, they were not allowed to enter.
For the situation that happened on the dock just now, a husband explained the details to them, that night, suddenly a group of gangsters came, trying to storm the Manila galleon, and clashed with the Western soldiers guarding the goods, many people came to see the excitement, but more people stood up and prepared to fish in troubled waters, for some reason, they fought with each other, and the scene was extremely chaotic......
The Westerners fired a few shots into the sky, scaring away a few cowardly, the Haicheng County Commander heard the gunshots, and came to maintain law and order with the messengers, everyone heard the sound of the gong opening the way, and scared away again, leaving only those gangsters who attacked the galleon.
Before the county magistrate arrived, the gangsters entered the dock, but the Westerners didn't dare to shoot anymore......
Don't look at the number of gangsters, they are not the opponents of these two people at all, and when the county master arrived at the dock, they had already beaten the gangsters back.
Hearing this, Zhu Hui was secretly surprised, and hurriedly asked, "What happened later?" β
"These two people were taken away by the county magistrate." The husband replied.
After asking in detail about the physical characteristics of this man and woman, Zhu Hui was sure that they were Song He and Wanxi.
Leaving the dock, Li Dan followed Felipe and others back to the Hongmao Pavilion, Zhu Hui returned to the warehouse, and found that Shen Qi had not slept yet, he asked about Song He and Wanxi, Shen Qi said that they heard the gunshots, because they were worried that Zhu Hui and Li Dan would have an accident, they immediately ran out to help, I don't know why they didn't come back?
Zhu Hui was worried about scaring Shen Qi, so he didn't dare to speak more, handed over Felipe's revised contract to him, and urged him to rest quickly. How can Shen Qi sleep at this moment? He was also worried that something would happen to Song He and Wanxi, so he looked outside the door from time to time, hoping that they would come back soon.
Zhu Hui guessed that the two of them were most likely arrested by the government, and found that Shen Qi was very anxious, so he told him what happened on the dock, Shen Qi suddenly couldn't sit still, and had to go to the county government to bail them out, the two argued, and left Shen Qi to watch the house, and Zhu Hui went to save people.
In the first year of Longqing, Haicheng County was established, which means "Haijiang clarification", expanded on the basis of the original ancient castle, and the county government set up the position in the middle of the stone city, Zhu Hui went to the yamen to inquire, and the official on duty told him that the county order was inviting guests in Yanhai Tower, and no one was arrested tonight.
In the middle of the night, which guest is invited by the county order? Could it be that they invited Song He and Wanxi? Zhu Hui felt that this was quite strange, and when he left the yamen, he ran towards the Jiulong River again......
There is a brightly lit watchtower in front, only to see the big red lantern outside the three-story pavilion, written "Yan Hailou" three big characters, Zhu Hui arrived in front of the door, immediately stopped, only to listen to the sound of people inside, as if many people drink together, then stop and listen......
The voice upstairs was too noisy to tell who was talking, because he was too concentrated, Zhu Hui suddenly felt a cold swish on his neck, and when he looked down, he saw that a bright steel knife was already on his shoulder......
"Who are you?" Someone asked in a loud voice.
"This official, I am a merchant from other places, looking for my younger brother and sister-in-law, I am not familiar with life, and I got lost in the middle of the night." Zhu Hui replied calmly.
The officer put away the steel knife and continued to ask, "What are the names of your brother and sister-in-law?" β
"My younger brother is from the capital and his surname is Song Minghe, and his sister-in-law Lan Wanxi is from Jinling."
After hearing this, the messenger hurriedly grabbed Zhu Hui's hands and said very excitedly: "Come, come, come, our county lord has set up a celebration wine and is entertaining these two heroes. β
"May I ask Brother Guancha, what happened?" Zhu Hui asked as he walked.
"Tonight at Hailong Wharf, there are a lot of scoundrels who are picking up trouble and trying to attack Western galleons, and beating the merchants on the wharf for no reason.
"So, is Master Zhai here for a treat?"
"Yes, our Lord Zhai is kind-hearted, and hates J merchants, bullies and Yanei the most, if there are no these two heroes tonight, once the scoundrels occupy the Western galleon, it will be a great disaster, the Westerners will definitely sue the imperial court, Lord Zhai will be unlucky, if this causes the Western devils to invade the sea frontier, my God, it is really unimaginable, maybe even I will have to cut ...... with a thousand knives."
In fact, will there be such serious consequences? Zhu Hui never thought about it, needless to say, tonight he organized people to besiege Shen Qi's warehouse, block the Western merchants of the Hongmao Pavilion, and even tried to occupy the Manila galleon, all of which were secretly commanded by Liu Qian.
It seems that this old man Zhai is quite upright as an official, Zhu Hui really can't understand what relationship Liu Shufang, who used to be cautious, has anything to do with Governor Pang Shangpeng? Dare to reckless of all the consequences and do anything wrong in the middle of the bright world!
When Zhu Hui boarded Yan Hailou, he didn't bother everyone easily, but also picked up a wine glass and stood aside to watch.
Song He drank a lot of alcohol, lost a few games in a row, drank several glasses in one go, and then came again, he found that Zhai County Ling was biased towards his subordinates, and began to argue with him, * Zhai County Ling had to toast with him......
Due to the large number of people involved in drinking, no one noticed Zhu Hui's arrival, at this time, Song He pestered Zhai County Ling to draw punches, Wanxi came to be the referee, and sentenced Zhai County Ling to lose several games in a row......
"Zhai Yin, don't cheat!" No big or small, he called the county master by his name, chased him to drink, turned around twice in a row, and suddenly stopped behind Zhu Hui, making everyone laugh.
Wanxi found out that Zhu Hui was coming, the wine glass in his hand fell to the ground, and Song He, who was drunk, swayed to Zhu Hui's approach, and complained: "You, early, why did you go, go, you, look, the two of us, being bullied ......" Before he finished speaking, he collapsed to the ground.
After a graceful introduction, Zhai Yin knew who Zhu Hui was and invited him to sit at the top.
Zhu Hui hurriedly bowed down and bowed, bowed his head and said, "Zhu Hui, who is in the grass, meet Lord Zhai." β
"Zhu Gongzi doesn't have to be polite, we've been talking about you for a long time just now." Zhai Yin motioned for him to sit down and speak.
found that this county master was a person with a temperament, no official style at all, and no hypocrisy, Zhu Hui was no longer polite, and raised his wine glass to salute Zhai Yin.
Zhai Yin smiled slightly, and asked him to punish himself for three cups first, Zhu Hui didn't say a word, and drank three glasses in a row, so the county officials, masters, catchers, squad leaders and officials present all came to relieve Zhai Yin's siege, and came to toast one after another.
Zhu Hui drank more than ten glasses in a row, feeling overwhelmed, but he couldn't say that he didn't drink, so he asked loudly: "Lord Zhai, do you know how many places have happened tonight?" β
"I know your warehouse is under siege." Zhai Yin replied.
"Lord Zhai, the Red Hair Pavilion almost had an accident." Zhu Hui said, and drank another glass of himself.
Zhai Yin asked in surprise: "Could it be that someone still can't attack the Red Hair Pavilion?" β
"There are three places that have an accident at the same time tonight, may I ask Lord Zhai and everyone, do you know the reason?" Zhu Hui asked again with his wine glass.
"Needless to say, this is all a good thing done by Liu Qian."
"I heard that Liu Qianqiang bought and sold, and the business negotiations with Westerners collapsed......"
"Although we blocked the dock tonight, maybe as soon as it dawns, we will have to drive our people out, and Liu Qian has such ability."
Listening to the gossip of the officials, Zhai Yin was afraid of the table, and said angrily: "It's his mother's Liu Hezi again, since the official took up the post of Haicheng, he has all sued him, this guy bullies men and women on weekdays, buys and sells by force, seizes people's land, and is a prostitute, it's just fucking evil, I don't believe that the king can't rule him!" β
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Zhu Hui really couldn't believe that the cautious bookkeeper in Xingji Qianzhuang back then couldn't get in touch with this big bully of Zhangzhou Mansion anyway, what was the reason why this Liu Qian was like two sides of a copper coin, one was a demon with teeth and claws, and the other was a pug wagging his tail and begging for mercy.
Suddenly, Wanxi asked, "Brother, you also went to the Red Hair Pavilion to fight?" β
"Zhu Gongzi, about Liu Qian's situation in Nanjing, Song Xia Shi has already talked about it just now, I now have the bottom in my heart, and I am more confident in dealing with a bastard like Liu Qian, I need all kinds of evidence now, may I ask what happened to the Hongmao Pavilion?" Zhai Yin also asked.
Zhu Hui looked at his indignant look, as a guilty himself, he didn't want to do more, before resigning from the position of Jinyi Guard, he tried to show his head as little as possible, so he replied with a smile: "I did go to a large group of scoundrels, but I stood in front of the Hongmao Pavilion and stomped my feet, only to hear the sound of duang, and the gang all ran away." β
As he spoke, he got up and made an exaggerated gesture that made everyone present laugh......
