The bearded guest still agreed in the end, which seems to be a reasonable thing, and in the face of such a condition offered by Zhao Chen, it seems that no one can really refuse.

What's more, there is no way for the bearded guest to refuse, once the consequence of refusal, that is, at sea, there is no place for him to be a bearded guest, Zhao Chen said that if he wants to block him, then he will really be blocked.

The bearded guest has known Zhao Chen for so many years, and of course he also knows a little bit about Zhao Chen, this is a person who can persist for a long time until the goal is achieved.

Therefore, Zhao Chen said that he would ban him, then he would definitely do it, because Zhao Chen has the power to do this!

In this case, what reason does the bearded guest have to refuse, with a ship, a weapon, not to mention, and the nautical chart provided by Zhao Chen, the bearded guest suddenly felt that such a pirate was actually quite good.

It's just that the bearded guest can't be realized right away if he agrees here, because Zhao Chen has to return to Chang'an and communicate with Li Er in person before it can be truly implemented.

The matter of piracy is not a casual matter, to put it mildly, it is outside the empire, an army has been rearmed, and this team is not directly under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of War.

Zhao Chen believed that Li Er would agree, but the premise was that after he returned to Chang'an, in front of Li Er, he would explain the future role of pirates to Li Er in detail.

"In that case, then a certain family is waiting for your reply in Lingnan!" Hearing Zhao Chen's reply, the bearded guest suddenly stood up, and when he spoke to Zhao Chen, he was already ready to walk towards the door.

"What, you're leaving?" Seeing the appearance of the bearded guest simply turning around, the expression on Zhao Chen's face couldn't help but be stunned, and he looked at the bearded guest in surprise and asked.

"A certain family is still a pirate!" Hearing Zhao Chen's doubtful words, the bearded guest who had already stepped out of the hatch with one foot suddenly stopped, turned around and smiled at Zhao Chen, and said: "Since ancient times, officials and bandits, therefore, it is always a little uncomfortable for a certain family to stay on your treasure ship!" ”

"Okay!" Listening to the half-joking words of the bearded guest, Zhao Chen suddenly smiled helplessly, looked at the bearded guest and said: "Then I won't keep you, when there is news in Chang'an, Benhou will notify you as soon as possible!" ”

"Done!" Hearing Zhao Chen's words, the bearded guest immediately grinned heartily, turned around and stepped out of the hatch, and under the leadership of a wingman, he returned to his cargo ship.

An hour later, on the side of the treasure ship, Cheng Chumo looked bored, his arms were lying on the side of the ship, his eyes were looking down, and the Nanyang people who kept going back and forth between the treasure ship and the cargo ship carried all the fresh water and food on the treasure ship to the cargo ship.

"Brother Chen, are you really going to give him ships and weapons?" After a long time like this, Cheng Chumo stood up, turned his head to look at the side, and also looked at Zhao Chen below, and asked tentatively.

Between Zhao Chen and the bearded guest, the matter just discussed, Cheng Chumo had already gossiped from Zhao Chen's mouth as soon as the bearded guest left.

It's just that Cheng Chumo expressed great doubts about Zhao Chen's turning the bearded guest into a pirate group like a giant on the sea!

"I've already said it!" Hearing Cheng Chumo ask such words again, Zhao Chen was already immune, and after hearing this, his eyes continued to look down, and he said to Cheng Chumo without looking back.

"But I still think something is wrong!" Hearing Zhao Chen's perfunctory words, Cheng Chumo's eyes flashed a slight hesitation, and after a long time, he looked at Zhao Chen again, and said hesitantly: "Moreover, I also think that Your Majesty will not agree!" ”

"Silence!" Hearing Cheng Chumo's worried words, Zhao Chen originally looked at the people below, but suddenly sighed, turned around, leaned his back against the side of the boat, looked at Cheng Chumo and said, "Do you remember that when we left Qinling, I told you that on the other side of the sea, there are many gold mountains?" ”

“… Remember! Hearing Zhao Chen's words, Cheng Chumo couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, thinking about what Zhao Chen had said at the beginning, he looked at Zhao Chen with a little puzzled eyes, and asked puzzledly: "What do you mean, you don't want the bearded guest to go there, right?" ”

"Why not?" Zhao Chen leaned his back against the side of the ship, chuckled at Cheng Chumo, his eyes suddenly looked at the sea, and said with a little emotion: "Actually, that has always been a dream of mine, one day, our Datang fleet can arrive there and make it our Datang place!" ”

"Imagine!" When he said this, Zhao Chen suddenly retracted his gaze, looked at Cheng Chumo with a little excitement in his eyes, and grinned: "One day, on this vast sea, there is a fleet of Tang people, vertical and horizontal, but there are people who are not convinced along the way, and they will be directly crushed in the past, so that people will be frightened when they hear it, how cool should it be?" ”

This is a very strange idea, maybe only people like Zhao Chen, from later generations, will have strange thoughts in their hearts, perhaps, only because of the history that has passed, will understand this strange idea!

"There's no need for that, you have to build pirates, right?" Cheng Chumo didn't understand Zhao Chen's idea, but since it was his brother's dream, Cheng Chumo had no intention of objecting, but what he didn't understand was why he had to use pirates.

"That's understandable!" When Zhao Chen heard Cheng Chumo's words, he immediately smiled at Cheng Chumo and said: "In this world, there are always some people who will be particularly cheap, if you reason with him, he may have a hundred reasons to persuade you, but if so, you will directly put the knife on him." Neck, then everything will go well! ”

"So!" When Zhao Chen said this, he suddenly looked at Cheng Chumo with a smile and said: "I want to make the bearded guest a pirate, I didn't plan to reason with those people at sea from the beginning!" ”

“… That's crazy, isn't it? After listening to Zhao Chen's words, Cheng Chumo couldn't help but imagine it in his mind for a while, and then, his face changed slightly, and when he looked at Zhao Chen, he took a slight breath, and then sighed and said.

"Isn't it a sting?" Zhao Chen listened to Cheng Chumo's words, couldn't help but open his mouth and laughed, and when he had laughed enough, he looked at Cheng Chumo and said: "To tell you the truth, Chu Mo, if the conditions didn't allow it, I would like to command these pirate ships and set foot on that treasure land!" ”

"What's so rare about that!" Cheng Chumo was a little tempted by Zhao Chen's words, and when he heard Zhao Chen's slightly regretful words, he patted his chest, looked at Zhao Chen and said: "Brother Chen, if you are willing, I will immediately resign from the governor's errand and accompany you to be a pirate!" ”

"!" Zhao Chen, who was still full of longing just now, immediately turned ugly when he heard Cheng Chumo's words, and said unceremoniously to Cheng Chumo: "This kind of, don't talk about it again in the future, you can honestly run the sea here!" ”

"What if!" was unceremoniously reprimanded by Zhao Chen, Cheng Chumo was not angry, but smiled at Zhao Chen's 'hehe' and said: "We are brothers, one day, Brother Chen, you really want to go to the sea, then how can I not accompany Cheng Chumo!" ”

"That's not going to work either!" When Zhao Chen heard this, he still said with an ugly face: "No matter what happens in the future, you can't follow the foolery anymore, unless you really don't care about Uncle Cheng and them!" ”

“… Hey! Cheng Chumo, who was indifferent just now, suddenly let out two chuckles from his mouth when he heard Zhao Chen's words, but even so, he still didn't say anything rebellious like before.

And just when Zhao Chen and Cheng Chumo were talking here, the cargo ship below was also fully equipped, fresh water, food, and ordinary medicines.

These things are all necessary for sea navigation, but unfortunately, these things can't be obtained by bearded passengers, and because of this, bearded guests obviously have power, but they can only come to Liaohai here.

"You really don't plan to see Liaodong Bay?" The goods on the cargo ship were all fully equipped, and the bearded passengers who had been staying on the cargo ship returned to the treasure ship and said goodbye to Zhao Chen.

"No!" Hearing Zhao Chen's words, the bearded guest suddenly chuckled, of course he knew that Zhao Chen was talking about Jiang Chao, because, after hearing this, he chuckled and said, "If you have a chance, we will meet anyway!" ”

"Okay!" In the final analysis, this is also a matter between their master and apprentice, and Zhao Chen doesn't want to interfere too much, so when he heard the bearded guest's words, Zhao Chen suddenly chuckled, handed over a drawn map to the bearded guest, and said, "As soon as there is news, I will inform you as soon as possible!" ”

"Good!" After taking the chart handed by Zhao Chen, the bearded guest nodded and smiled at Zhao Chen, and then reached out and took out a folded letter paper from his arms, handed it to Zhao Chen, and said, "Help a certain family transfer it to the second brother!" ”

"Aren't you afraid of me peeking?" The second brother in the mouth of the bearded guest is naturally Li Jing, but for some reason, this letter has no envelope, it seems to have been written casually and folded.

"Hey, it's not something you can't see!" Hearing Zhao Chen's ridicule, the bearded guest suddenly chuckled, and then, as he spoke, he waved his hand at Zhao Chen, and the whole person jumped directly from the sampan and jumped onto his cargo ship.

"Damn, why don't I like this guy a little?" When the bearded guest came up just now, Cheng Chumo had been staying beside him, and at this time, seeing the bearded guest leave, Cheng Chumo rubbed his nose and said.

"If you like the bearded guest, then our brother will do it!" Hearing Cheng Chumo's words, Zhao Chen suddenly learned from Cheng Chumo's appearance, rubbed his nose boredly, and said.

"What do you mean?" Cheng Chumo was silent for a while, a little unresponsive, Zhao Chen's words were strange, after hearing this, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, looked at Zhao Chen and asked strangely.

"Back to the mountain!" Hearing Cheng Chu's incomprehensible words, Zhao Chen resisted the urge to laugh, explained casually in his mouth, looked at the cargo ship that was gradually leaving, and waved his hand vigorously at the bearded passengers on the cargo ship: "Have a good trip!" ”

"Holy!" If you didn't react just now, then now when you hear Zhao Chen talking about the back mountain, Cheng Chumo still doesn't understand, and after hearing the words, he immediately raised his middle finger at Zhao Chen, which he still learned from Zhao Chen. (To be continued.) )
