Chapter Fifty-Four: It's a Pirate One Shift
PS Note: If there are more than 10,000 words in 5 tomorrow, what will happen to you, do you want to try it harder? Will everyone give Xiao An support and encouragement?!!!
said that although he happened to save Zhao Kui and Zhao Xiaoya, he also benefited a lot, at least he used their bracelets to sell a lot of money, and he could also have a direct contact point with the people in the village, which also happened to be a starting point for gaining a foothold in the Qing Dynasty.
If it weren't for Zhao Kui and them, they might have to waste a lot of effort to integrate into this strange ancient society, and it is still unclear what would have happened at that time.
And to have your own people, obviously you have to have a layer of relationship, Hu Lin can integrate in as a rescuer, and then use affection to benefit the people of Pingshan Village, naturally you can have some of your own people faster, and the role of starting the career in the Qing Dynasty is too great.
It's not about who helped whom, it's just a coincidence, so that everyone has convenience, each has the best results, and can work together, although it doesn't say that the branch loses twice, but together it is definitely more beneficial for everyone.
"Brother Hu is a cultural person, but it is different to speak, I Zhao Wei is a rough person, I can only float on the sea all year round, and I can't take care of it at home, fortunately I didn't succeed in the thief, my mother went early, and there was only my sister and father left in the house, I originally brought some silver back, and I heard Xiaoya talk about you, and I wanted to give you more silver, but later I learned that you are not short of silver, and I have nothing else to thank you."
Zhao Wei saw that the salute had been done, and he no longer procrastinated, straightened up again, and sighed that Hu Lin had saved his family, and naturally complimented him.
"Knowing is fate, don't say that again. Well? Do you work at sea? To be a boatman or a sailor, or? ”
Hu Lin is interested, it seems that Zhao Wei is eating sea rice, it just so happens that this second-hand warship is here, and he can get started quickly under training, so there will be more trustworthy people in the navy after that.
"Actually, I'm actually a pirate..."
Zhao Wei looked around and saw that there were no outsiders, so he still said it. It turned out that Zhao Wei was a pirate, robbing passing ships in the Nanyang area, Hu Lin heard this, and secretly screamed in his heart, such a cute Zhao Xiaoya's brother is actually a pirate, and he also robs passing ships, and he wants to be pulled into the navy.
Well, now it's actually a pirate, and he just wants to form a navy, can't this person be used? Hu Lin didn't continue to think about it, and continued to hear about Zhao Wei's explanation.
The robbery is basically a foreigner's ship, and their gang is forced to go to sea to find business, so naturally their conscience is still there, and they will not be embarrassed when they see that they are their own people, and they will collect some money to buy the road, so as not to starve.
Of course, they only have a few small boats of several hundred tons, and it would be good to be able to bully some lone foreigners, so the business is not very good.
The foreigner's big ship has to hide when it looks at it, how dare they rob it, and these foreigners have been sent to inspect more recently, Zhao Wei and they can only change their place every few days, otherwise it won't be long before people will be targeted, and then they will be strangled by the foreigner's warship.
Originally, there were more than 20 ships robbed, but the foreigners were robbed a lot, and they panicked, and let the warships patrol everywhere in the South China Sea.
The last few remaining ships were also beaten to the ground, and it took a few months to barely drive away, and then a few broken ships were not easy to do business, and they all knew that they might be robbed by pirates, and they followed the fleet, and there were even fewer who were left alone, and the brothers were almost unable to get along.
Although some people on their side can rob it, they can't do it, and they only collect some money to live, but they are sad for others to collect too much, and now they have found an uninhabited island to repair, and they are trying to figure out how to live.
Zhao Wei also took advantage of this time to go back to his hometown, and he has been out for many years, who is not worried about the situation at home, and there are many people who go to sea with him to live together, all of whom were harmed by unscrupulous profiteers, all kinds of deductions of wages, beating and scolding, some of them were killed, and some were wanted by the imperial court for unjust cases.
Zhao Wei has encountered all kinds of people on the ship, but no matter what these people did before, almost all of them were forced to flee to the sea without coercion, which is why Zhao Wei's pirates basically do not target their own merchant ships, and rob foreigners.
And there are still many pirates rampant in the South China Sea, Zhao Wei and they not only have to be pirates, but also have to compete with pirates.
Now that Zhao Wei's pirate power has weakened, and the territory has been compressed, he doesn't dare to fight against other pirate groups at this time, just these few broken ships, it doesn't take much effort to be annexed.
Hu Lin looked at Zhao Wei with a look of surprise and said slowly, from going out to work to being forced to run to the sea to beg for a living, and then there was the process of fighting with other pirates, robbing foreigners' ships, etc., the people present were also excited.
Zhao Xiaoya seemed to have known that Zhao Wei was a pirate, and it seemed that Zhao Wei had already told Zhao Kui and Zhao Xiaoya when he came back, so that Zhao Xiaoya was not surprised at this time, but looked at Hu Lin with a worried face.
"Brother Hu Lin, my brother was also forced, he is a good person, don't get me wrong, they only rob those foreigners."
Zhao Xiaoya was worried that Hu Lin didn't like pirates, and after Zhao Wei said this, he began to worry, Hu Lin is now the backbone of Pingshan Village, strictly speaking, he is a military commander and a general, if Hu Lin is not used to being a pirate Zhao Wei, then his brother will not have a chance to follow the people in Pingshan Village.
"Brother Hu, we are all people with sweet blood at the crossing, if you don't like people like us, we won't bother everyone, come back and go back to the sea, if you can use Zhao Wei me, this life can be taken at any time."
Zhao Wei's face was expressionless, he was a pirate, if Hu Lin couldn't accept himself, then he wouldn't stay, if Hu Lin was in trouble, he would give up his life to repay him.
"Little girl, don't worry, my brother won't care, well, you said that you didn't come back alone?" Hu Lin comforted Zhao Xiaoya first, and then wondered what Zhao Wei said that it seemed that he didn't come back alone, and there were accomplices? This made Hu Lin curious.
"Brother Hu Lin, my brother also brought back a few people who were not slightly injured, and they are still lying in the hospital, oh, by the way, there is a very seriously injured and fierce guy who heard that you are coming here and also followed."
As soon as Zhao Xiaoya saw Hu Lin like this, she knew that Hu Lin didn't take it seriously, her face turned cloudy, and she mischievously took the words. Hu Lin didn't speak, and looked at Zhao Wei to confirm, after all, Zhao Xiaoya didn't know the person Zhao Wei brought back at all, and if he wanted to ask about the situation, Zhao Wei would be clear.
"Xiaoya is talking about those brothers who were seriously injured, and they still had a life, and they were also injured when they were chased by foreigners, and many brothers did not survive. The person who came was the boss of our pirates, Ye Tianlong. ”
Seeking a living at sea is naturally dangerous, that is, you have to rely on yourself when you are sick and injured, and more on your own immunity.
There have been many brothers who have been injured recently, and the medicine for the injuries has been used up, and it is not enough, and seeing that these brothers are not getting better and their lives are in danger, they can only take the risk of coming back with Zhao Wei to find someone to treat.
