Chapter 24: Business (I)

The continuous sound of war drums swept across the beach, and together with the sound of the waves, poured into the sleeping Jiaozhou City.

"Damn." Mengyuan Jiaozhou Daruhua, who was painting, threw the pen on the table with hatred and scolded in a low voice.

Don't ask, it must be the Privy Councillor who is in a "fierce battle" with the pirates, similar to the "fierce battle", the Jiaozhou Navy will fight four or five games every year, and they will win all the games, but every time the pirates are killed, there are very few pirates, and they have never caught any prisoners, after all, buying death row prisoners from Goryeo is also an expense, and the money that can be saved, Lord Tuhuan will never spend it indiscriminately.

However, every time the sailor returns triumphantly, the seized "thief dirt" is very rich, and the Privy Council is very good at being a person, from Shandong Road, to Yidu Road, and then to Jiaozhou City, officials at all levels can get their due share from the "thief stolen goods" according to the corresponding official rank, so the noise is noisy, and the officials in Jiaozhou are embarrassed to stand up and debunk the excerpts played by the smugglers and smugglers.

Of course, after receiving the profits, for the smuggling ships sailing in and out of Jiaozhou Bay, everyone also tacitly adopted an attitude of turning a blind eye, anyway, this kind of smuggling trade, the management is also in vain, dare to ignore the city ship controlled by the color people, directly from Jiaozhou Bay to Goryeo, the Japanese ship, which behind the stand is not a prince or above the level of the Buddha, you lead the soldiers on the front foot to detain the other people's boat, the back foot has to come to the door to apologize to others, if you don't get it right, even the official position and life have to be lost, it is better to pretend to be deaf and dumb, Anyway, you can still share a dividend from the "thief" every quarter, which is far more pleasant than scraping the ground.

Not all officials are willing to be complicit, a few years ago, there was a sailor Wanhu who was transferred from Dadu, did not listen to the dissuasion of his subordinates, and insisted on blocking the huge smuggling hole in Jiaozhou Bay for the imperial court, but when he led the team to chase and kill the smuggling boat, he actually slipped under his feet, and plunged into the sea.

Since then, the civil and military officials of Jiaozhou City have never taken the initiative to provoke people's suspicion, and even recently the existing traders have secretly trafficked grain and saltpeter from the sea to Huai'an City, and they have also let it go, anyway, the mirrors, ice cui and the hundred flowers and jade dew that can be fragrant for half a month on the body with grain and saltpeter from Huai'an City have never been left in Jiaozhou City for public sale, and almost early the next morning, there are special carriages to transport these extraordinarily high luxury items directly to Jinan for loading, and then go upstream along the Daqing River. Enter the canal and send it to Dadu, Shangdu, Jining and other places where princes and nobles like to live, and even go as far as the Ilkhanate, and send it to those nobles who spend thousands of dollars.

A glass mirror that clearly illuminates the sweat pores of a person's face; It is carved from ice and green, and can light all kinds of utensils at night; The jade dew brewed from the essence of a hundred flowers, which one is taken out, the price is not more than 1,000 guan, even if Jiaozhou Dalu Hua Chi'er from the four official body, want to buy a copy of everything to taste fresh, he has to frown and hesitate for several days, he doesn't believe that after these goods arrive in the capital, they will flow into the homes of ordinary merchants, and the prime ministers, Pingzhang, and imperial historians of the dynasty know that this thing will lead a large amount of money and grain to flow to Huai'an, and flow into the hands of Zhu Chongjiu, the giant of the red scarf, and finally become a cannon and a spear and a big knife. But still indifferent, this strange situation is a bit thought-provoking.

"Could it be that in the imperial court, there are people who don't want the Zhu thief to be exterminated." Ordering the maid to close the doors and windows to keep the sound of war drums out, Zhou Daru Hua Chi Eryou picked up the pen again and walked back and forth beside the bookcase.

Totoh and Hama are two, the same as fire and water, this point, all the officials who are a little more agitated are clear, and if Tuotuo Shun lì kills Zhu Chongjiu, Liu Futong and other thieves, with dazzling military exploits and 300,000 victorious divisions in his hands, he can definitely trample Hama under his feet, but if he loses the battle, it is impossible, absolutely impossible, and Hama will not dare to joke about the thousands of miles of the Great Yuan Dynasty no matter how bastard he is.

Stubbornly grasping the brush stained with thick ink, Jiaozhou Daru Hua Chi Eryou, was scared into a cold sweat by the thoughts that suddenly popped up in his mind, if Zhu Chongjiu defeated Toto, then the consequences would be too terrible, the Great Yuan Dynasty would definitely collapse, and even lose the country in a blink of an eye, Hama, who was also an important minister of the dynasty, would definitely not be stupid enough to collude with the Zhu thief, but if you try to find a way to let Totoku and the Zhu thief have a draw, or drag the war on for four or five months, then the situation will be clear again.

Hama can unite with Yuekuochaer and others, on the grounds of "working in vain, raising thieves and self-respect", impeachment and detachment, and then find a general to replace him, just detachment will also consume the Zhu thief to the point of exhaustion of oil, as soon as the person who replaces Detachment arrives, he can immediately fight with the red turban thief, and the entire "counterinsurgency" work fell into the hands of Hama and others, and Tuotuo and Timur do not spend brothers, and completely lose the trust of the emperor

The weather in the coastal cities has always been cool, but the back of the Daruhua in Jiaozhou was wet unconsciously, not because of the continuous sound of war drums outside the window, but because of the unpredictable political situation in the capital, thousands of miles away.

When the minister of power lost power, he took off and replaced him, and the Great Yuan Dynasty cut off many officials' heads from top to bottom, and once Hama replaced Takoff, those guys who stood on the wrong side could still have a good death.

But in case Totoku laughs to the end, in order to set an example, he will not let go of the two brothers Hama and Xuexue, at that time, where did so many mirrors and flower dew come from in the capital, I am afraid there will be an explanation, as one of the main smuggling channels, Jiaozhou must be in a catastrophe, and the civil and military officials in the city may also have endless hanging

"My lord, my lord, it's not good, it's not good." Just thinking in pain, there was a sudden annoying noise outside the door, followed by Han Qing, the Tongzhi of Jiaozhou, who rushed in, holding the door with both hands, and was angry, "My lord, my lord, hurry up and take a look, something happened, something really happened, pirates, pirates landed on the yellow sand beach outside the east gate, and wiped out the sailors, the sailors." ”

"What, what are you talking about, aren't you fooling people, how can you really fight." Jiaozhou Daluhua Red Ear You Xun ripped off the earmuffs, and accidentally, the brush in his hand smeared the ink all over his face.

"Oh my lord, when will I dare to lie to you,." Jiaozhou Tongzhi Han Qing climbed forward a few steps, holding Eryou's thighs with both hands, "Where are the traders, it's pirates, real pirates, you don't know that the sailor of our Jiaozhou Wanhu Institute has already eaten seventy percent, and the remaining two or three thousand brothers, who went up and lost a wave and came back, have been defeated all the way to the city gate, if you don't send someone to support quickly, the thieves will kill directly into the city." ”
