I remember that in my previous life, Zhou Xingxing said such a sentence: "If a person has no ideals, what is the difference between him and salted fish!" ”

As a time-traveler with the memories of two lives, Ren Siqi certainly does not want to live so humbly.

This year is the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, Li Zicheng led his peasant army is galloping in the Central Plains, and the important town of Kaifeng in Henan Province is submerged in the water of the Yellow River. This year, the Qing troops conquered Tashan, and the governor of Jiliao, Hong Chengchou, and the chief soldier Zu Dashou were captured and surrendered to the Qing. The Ming Dynasty was in turmoil with internal and external troubles.

In more than two years, Li Zicheng will lead the peasant army to break through the Beijing Division, and the Qing troops will enter the customs, and there will be no more peaceful place in the land of China.

As a traverser, Ren Siqi naturally knew the pain brought to China by the rule of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and as a Han Chinese, Ren Siqi was even more reluctant to live under the rule of a foreign race with an ugly pig's tail.

But whether it is resistance or going to sea to escape, everything must have its own strength, and if you don't have strength, you can only be slaughtered by others.

Now there is such an opportunity in front of Ren Siqi, with a big boat and dozens of subordinates, as the foundation to continue to grow and develop, and when the world changes greatly, it may not be impossible to make a career!

"I promised!" Ren Siqi said to Cao Changjiang, "But this matter can't be rushed, after all, this ship was captured by everyone from the Dutch, and it belongs to all the people, so we can't just take it." But you can talk to my brother who came back from Luzon and see if they want to do it with me. ”

Cao Changjiang nodded and agreed. Cao Changjiang also thought about becoming the leader himself at first, but he just thought about it, because he knew that his prestige could not convince the public. And everyone was brought back from Luzon by the Fuchun, and the Fuchun was kind to everyone, and not many people were willing to take the ship with their own ungrateful reputation.

But Ren Siqi is different, Ren Siqi is a person from the Fuchun, and he has the right to say what to do with this ship, and he has a great chance of getting this ship with the support of his own people.

Looking at Cao Changjiang's back, Ren Siqi pondered. Maybe he can get this "Shark" with these people who came back from Luzon as he wishes, but Ren Siqi is a little jealous of Cao Changjiang, because Cao Changjiang's prestige among these people is too high. Ren Siqi was unwilling to work hard to take the ship, but he was set aside. But if you want to have your own strength, who else can you rely on besides these Han people in Luzon?

Xiong Erzheng was lying on his back in the stern of the boat sleeping, and the sound of snoring almost overwhelmed the sound of the waves. The bear had become accustomed to life on a boat these days, and had grown much bolder, and when he attacked the Dutch on the beach, he swung a thick bamboo pole and smashed a Dutchman's head.

"Xiong Er, get up!" Ren Siqi kicked him in the thigh.

"I didn't steal the bun!" Xiong Er shouted inexplicable words in his mouth and sat up suddenly.

"What didn't you steal?" Ren Siqi asked funny.

Xiong Er wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth and smiled embarrassedly.

"Xiong Er, we will return to Daming soon, and you have earned a lot of silver, have you ever thought of going back to your hometown?" Ren Siqi asked.

Xiong Er rubbed his eyes and shook his head: "Kaifeng's hometown fights every day, and I can't go back." ”

"I'm going to leave the Fuchun after I go back, Xiong Er, do you stay on the ship, or are you going to follow me?" It's still straightforward to talk to this simple-minded bear.

"Of course I'm following Xiucai, I'll go wherever you go!" Xiong Er said as a matter of course.

Since Ren Siqi gave him his own food in prison, Xiong Er has identified Ren Siqi.

Looking at Xiong Er's honest face, Ren Siqi was a little moved, Xiong Er may be the most loyal person to himself.

"Go and get that Anthony and Tony the Javanese to call me." Ren Siqi commanded.

Xiong Er agreed, and after a while, Anthony and the two walked after him.

"Master Xiucai, are you looking for me?" After knowing Ren Siqi's identity from other people's mouths, Anthony was in awe of Ren Siqi.

"Don't call me a master, I'm not that old, just call me Xiucai like others," Ren Siqi joked, "Have you ever thought about what to do when the ship arrives in Daming?" ”

Anthony was stunned for a moment, as a prisoner, he had only cared about how to save his life for the past two days, and he had not had time to think about things so far.

"Master Xiucai, I didn't, I didn't think about it." Anthony stammered, wondering if this showman was testing something?

"A lot of people died on the Fuchun this time, even the owner was seriously injured, and the crew hated the Dutch, and may not have a very good attitude towards you. But you don't have to worry, after all, you are a Ming man, and you have made meritorious contributions in battle, so everyone will not do anything to you. Ren Siqi said slowly.

Anthony lowered his head, his eyes rolling rapidly, guessing Ren Siqi's intentions.

"But these captives are different, there will definitely be a crew member who proposes to execute the captives to avenge the death of their brother!" Ren Siqi said in an aggravated tone.

Anthony was shocked in his heart, shocked by the murderous aura in Ren Siqi's words, and his head hung even lower.

"You also know my identity, I am a showman, although I escaped to the ship because I was wronged, but after I go back this time, I will definitely try to wash away the charges on my body, as long as I have money, there is nothing I can't do these days. After regaining my fame, I will definitely take the examination to become an official. Ren Siqi's words were full of strong confidence and temptation, "If you want to be an official, you naturally have to have close subordinates, Anthony, are you willing to follow me in the future?" ”

As if he was hit in the head by a huge pie, Anthony was shocked all of a sudden, this show is he, is he soliciting me?

"Will you follow me?" Ren Siqi asked in an accentuated tone.

"I do, I do." Anthony exclaimed in surprise, he was worried about the future prospects, now that such a big olive branch was thrown, why didn't he hurry up. With Xiucai, I will no longer be a rootless duckweed, and I don't have to worry about my life all the time, maybe I will have a good future in the future!

At this moment, Anthony's heart was hot, and a great sense of happiness filled his heart.

With a "poof", Anthony knelt on the ground: "In the future, I will follow you, Master Xiucai, I will do whatever you ask me to do, if there is a violation of the sky, there will be five thunders!" ”

"Get up, don't call me Master Xiucai in the future, just call me Childe." Ren Siqi pulled Anthony up and commanded. With the master-slave division, Anthony can't of course call himself a talent anymore.

"Yes, Childe!" Anthony stood up beaming and stood beside Ren Siqi.

Tony, a Javanese man, stood there inexplicably, not knowing what was going on because he couldn't understand Chinese.

"You told him that if he wanted to live, he had to listen to me, and I told him to do whatever he wanted." Ren Siqi instructed Anthony, "Also, you teach him Da Ming, let him follow you first during this time." ”

"Yes, Childe." Anthony promised, "I'll make him obedient." ”
