In Dongsha Town, Fu Bo was extremely enthusiastic about the arrival of the "Flying Fish", and among all the village leaders, Fu Bo could be said to be the most dedicated to the imperial court. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Three pirates from Dongsha Town were sent back to Dongsha by Ren Siqi, and Fu Bo immediately ordered the three to be beaten severely, including Sha Jie, who reported to the pirates, and the three were whipped to the flesh.

"I can't imagine that Childe can annihilate all the pirates with fewer enemies, which is really admirable!" After complimenting Ren Siqi, Fu Bo raised his worries: "Although the pirates have been annihilated, if the prince leaves Daishan, I am afraid that there will be pirates coming again, and the people of Daishan will be in dire straits again." ”

"What do you mean?" Ren Siqi knew that he must have a deep meaning when he said this, because although the pirates were fierce, they rarely harassed the people of the island, first, the rabbits did not eat the grass by the nest, and the second was that most of the fishermen were poor, and robbed the local fishermen where they had the pleasure of going to the mainland to rob.

"If only we could rebuild the Inspection Division!" Fauber sighed.

Ren Siqi's eyelids jumped, the purpose of this Fu Bo is probably not to be afraid of pirates coming back, but to use the power of the government to expand his influence in Daishan. However, Ren Siqi is not disgusted with Fu Bo's ideas, people have all kinds of desires. Hopeful, desired. Hope is good to cooperate, easy to control, no desire and no desire is the most difficult to deal with!

"The re-establishment of the inspection department requires the consent of the imperial court, and I am afraid it cannot be done in a short time. However, in the name of preventing piracy, we can first set up a village army, drill it first, and then try to get the consent of the government. Ren Siqi proposed.

"Is that okay?" Fu Bo's eyes lit up, since the inspection department was cut off, the influence of the Sha family in Daishan has been greatly reduced, and it is currently limited to a corner of Dongsha Town.

"How not? However, preventing pirates is not a matter of Dongsha Town, we can recruit village soldiers from all villages, train them first, and I will apply to the government as soon as possible, and I will definitely get the government's consent. "The more Ren Siqi said, the clearer his thinking became, if such a township soldier organization was established with the participation of strong men from all villages, he would definitely be able to control the entire Daishan Island!

"Good! If the township soldiers are established, my Dongsha Town will ask for money and money, and it just so happens that the official hall of the former Inspection Department is still there, and there is no need to spend effort to build a camp. Fauber said happily.

Put the township soldiers in Dongsha, that's not good, Ren Siqi doesn't want the township soldiers to be controlled by others, this force must be completely controlled in his own hands!

"After all, Dongsha Town is located in a remote area and the port is narrow, so I'm afraid it is not suitable as a garrison for village soldiers." Ren Siqi said. Fauber's face suddenly turned ugly.

"Another reason is that if the station is located in Dongsha, I am afraid that the enthusiasm of other villages to participate will not be great. The township soldiers must be the township soldiers of the entire Daishan, not just Dongsha. But don't worry, I'll set aside a good position in the village soldiers to thank you for your help to me! Ren Siqi reassured.

Fu Bo's face softened a little, and he also knew that only Ren Siqi could set up the so-called township soldiers, and Dongsha Town alone could not succeed.

"I'm afraid other villages won't pay for it." Fu Bo tried his best to try to save Ren Siqi's thoughts, after all, it was in his best interest to place the township soldiers in Dongsha.

"I don't need them to pay at all, as long as I am willing to pay, as for the food, I will be responsible for it alone." Ren Siqi, who exterminated the pirates and seized a large amount of silver and property, said easily.

Fauber was speechless. Ren Siqi bears all the expenses alone, what else can he say? In the Zhoushan Islands, as long as you have money, some poor fishermen work for you, which is also the reason why there are so many pirates on the islands, you may become a village soldier with food and salary, which is naturally a hundred times stronger than being a pirate!

"Let Chisato follow you, this kid is quite clever." Fauber concluded.

Ren Siqi readily agreed: "Qianli is very good, I will vigorously cultivate him." "Sha Qianli has just made great achievements as a guide in the extermination of pirates, and Ren Siqi likes this young but experienced boy very much.

After returning from Dongsha Town, Ren Siqi convened his subordinates to discuss the matter of the decision to set up a township soldier.

In the "Flying Fish", Ren Siqi has absolute prestige, and people like Jin Yufei, Anthony, Ren Xingfan and others are naturally the only ones who obey Ren Siqi's orders. Oriel Monroe and other Dutchmen belong to the guest secretary, and Ren Siqi belongs to the employment relationship, just waiting for the expiration of the five-year agreement, and then return to the Netherlands with remuneration, so he naturally does not express his opinion on Ren Siqi's resolution. The only people who will raise objections are Sima Nan and Cao Changjiang, Cao Changjiang is the leader of the people who came back from Luzon, but others are more honest, they only know how to do things on weekdays, and they don't say a word about Ren Siqi's resolution at this time. Sima Nan is very experienced, but because of his experience of betraying from the "Fuchun", he is cautious in his words and deeds on weekdays, for fear of arousing Ren Siqi's suspicion, so he does not say a word.

Song Liben, a new recruit, sat on the side with a pen and paper, he was responsible for recording some important things as a clerk, his eyes were purring, and Song Liben carefully observed the expressions of everyone present.

Looking at the silent crowd, Ren Siqi was also speechless, although he had many subordinates, there were not many available talents, and no one expressed his opinion on his proposal to recruit village soldiers!

"Owner, if you want to think that the 'Flying Fish' has few people, you can only recruit the crew, why do you want to set up any township soldiers, and what is the use of raising them on Daishan Island? We are not from Daishan, why do we spend money to do such a thing? After being silent for a while, it was Sima Nan who took the lead in speaking.

"Yes, the owner, why do we cheapen others with our hard-earned silver?" With Sima Nan's words, others spoke out one after another.

In the eyes of everyone, the silver earned by the "Flying Fish" naturally belongs to everyone, and the township soldiers who raise hundreds of people have to spend at least a few thousand taels of silver a year on food and weapons, which makes everyone feel distressed.

Song Liben's eyes rolled, he knew that the opportunity to perform had come.

"Everyone, listen to me!" Song Liben stood up, causing the eyes of everyone present to suddenly fall on him.

Wearing a Taoist robe embroidered with auspicious clouds and a Taoist crown on his head, Song Liben brushed his long beard and gave everyone a sense of fairy wind.

"Ladies and gentlemen, although I am newly recruited, it stands to reason that I am not qualified to speak here, but after listening to your words, I can't bear it, and I can use four words to evaluate your words!"

Song Liben's words made everyone angry, and they all turned their angry eyes on him.

"Tell me how we are blind, if we can't tell you why, we can't let you go." Sima Nan's compassionate way.

"Am I wrong?" Song Liben said proudly: "You only care about the advantages of the size in front of you, and you have no foresight at all. What is silver? It's just a dead thing, and if you don't have enough power, no matter how much money you have, it's only for others to earn. Just like Changshapu some time ago, just like the Daishan pirates yesterday, where did their silver go? It's not in your pockets. But do you dare to guarantee that no one will covet your possessions? If there is a greater power against you, how can you keep your money? ”

Song Liben's words poured on everyone's hearts like a basin of cold water, leaving everyone speechless to refute.

"Isn't there a court law, who dares to rob indiscriminately..."A crew member muttered to himself, but he also knew that his words were so powerless, because the facts were in front of him.

"Alright, let's decide." Ren Siqi glanced at Song Liben approvingly, and said: "I decided to recruit a hundred township soldiers, and they were stationed in Daishan Gaoting, with Jin Yufei as the commander, Monroe as the instructor in charge of training, and Ren Xingfan as the military judge in charge of law and discipline logistics. ”

"Don't set up the camp in Chongfu Temple, it's a little far from the port, just set it up in Gaoting, and after the township soldiers are recruited, the three of you will take them to train and build a camp at the same time. Training comes according to the regulations. Ren Siqi resolutely gave the order, the monsoon was getting closer and closer, he must arrange the affairs of Daishan as soon as possible, and then focus on the upcoming trade with Japan.
