Chapter 380 Mao Wenlong is ready to risk his life

The water surface of the Taiye Pool is still rippling in the microwave, and the fishing rod in Yang Reform's hand finally moved, and the float sank into the water from time to time, Yang Reform was delighted to see it, and said: "Finally, a fish has been hooked." ”

After speaking, he pulled the fishing rod, felt that the end of the silk thread was a little heavy, and knew that the fish was biting, and as soon as he pulled the silk thread, a silver fish burst out of the water, Yang Gengai stretched out his hand, caught the silk thread, and lifted it up to see, a fish two or three inches long.

Yang Gengai took the fish off the hook and said with a smile: "Yiguan, I have good luck today, I have only been fishing for a while, and some fish have been hooked, which is much better than the luck of the previous days, hehe, it may still be stained with your bare......"

The emperor seemed to say something casually, but Zheng Zhilong was doing countless interpretations, could it be that the emperor was talking about me? A metaphor for me? Didn't you say you caught a fish, didn't you say you caught me? If I were that fish, I would be too small, how could I be two or three inches long? You have to be more than a foot.

Zheng Zhilong was thinking nonsense, and Yang Reform said again: "When you go to Jingshi, what places have you visited?" What other places haven't you visited? ”

"Back to Your Majesty, the grass people followed Lord Lin, went to Liuli Street, went to see the Ouchi Zuo, went to the quilt field, and went to see the new army, as for where else to go, the grass people don't know......" As soon as Zheng Zhilong arrived in Beijing, he was led by Lin Zhu to visit these places.

"Oh, that's the case, then you can go on to visit, I'll talk to you after the tour......" Yang Gengai said as he threw the fish into the fish basket.

"The grass people obeyed." Zheng Zhilong replied.

"Oh, by the way, Yiguan, since you have done Dutch fever and know the Dutch well, then write down everything you know about the Dutch, including the Nanyang, including the Dutch organizational structure, language, customs, habits, warships, artillery, how to fight, how to sail, how to act, etc., anyway, record everything you know, I am most interested in overseas customs, hehe, remember, must be informative, some are some, no, I am not sure, I must explain ......" Yang Gai smiled and said to Zheng Zhilong.

Zheng Zhilong was dumbfounded, he was a big man, it was a great thing to be literate, the emperor actually asked him to write a book, Zheng Zhilong's eyes widened, and he was stunned for a long time before he defended: "Your Majesty, the grass people are a rough person, they can't write books at all, the grass people are really powerless...... Zheng Zhilong felt that he could finally refuse the emperor openly, and the emperor would not embarrass him for this matter."

Yang Reform smiled: "It's okay, you can't write, as long as you can speak, you ask Lin Zhu to find you a bookstore, you dictate, let the bookstore write for you, write as fast as possible, I am in a hurry to read it......, remember, what you have seen, what you know, you must not miss it, I am waiting to see the exotic customs" Yang Reform looked eager to contact the outside world.

"This, the grass people obey the order......" Zheng Zhilong has no choice, since the emperor said that this is on it, he can only follow the emperor.

Yang Gai smiled and said to Wang Chengen: "Companion, send a message to Lin Zhu, let him find a book office, and help Zheng Zhilong write a book about the Dutch and Nanyang, remember, don't write too advanced and profound books, all written in the vernacular, just treat it as if you are writing a novel, don't let me have a headache when I see it, just say that I am very interested in exotic customs, and I want to see the customs and customs of Nanyang, this book is done, and I can also use it for recreation when I have nothing to do......

"Yes, Your Majesty, the slave will do it." Wang Chengen readily agreed, this is nothing, the emperor is stuffy in the palace all year round, and he has not been out of the capital at the farthest, so it is not too much to understand the outside world.

"Okay, Yiguan, take a good rest after you go back, and prepare for the next visit, hehe, don't forget to write a book for me, the sooner the better, go, go......" Yang Gengai waved his hand, urging this Zheng Zhilong to leave.

Zheng Zhilong smiled bitterly and didn't cry, I don't know whether this emperor is scheming or immature, in short, the contrast given by the emperor is too great, and he still feels like an unfathomable emperor a while ago, and now, he is a young man who is very interested in new affairs.

……

Zheng Zhilong is gone, and Yang Reform is continuing to fish.

Wang Chengen walked up to him and said, "Your Majesty, Niangniang's younger brother, Wen Yao has come to ask for stocks, Your Majesty, do you give it or not?" ”,

Yang Reform was engrossed in fishing, when Wang Chengen spoke, the fishing rod moved again, the float sank down, Yang Reform smiled, took the fish out of the water, held it steadily, it was a small fish less than two inches, Yang Reform sighed: "This fish is really small" said, Yang Reform took down the fish again, and threw it into the basket.

Wang Chengen waited for the emperor's instructions, but he heard a small sentence and was about to ask again. The Emperor spoke.

"Big companion, I know about this, I have already promised Wan'er, you see how much silver Wen Yao has taken, just give him as many shares as ......" Yang Gai said casually.

"Your Majesty, how much does that cost?" Wang Chengen asked again.

"Oh, how much is it for Zhang Guoji now?" Yang Gai said casually.

"Back to Your Majesty, what I gave to Zhang Guoji is one thousand two hundred and twenty-one." Wang Chengen agreed.

"Oh, one thousand two hundred taels? That also gave Wen Yao this price. ”

The matter of stocks has slowly entered the **, and while selling stocks, they let people collect stocks, and the price difference has made many people red-eyed. Chinese people have always had the tradition of chasing up, the more things that rise, the more people who follow the trend, more and more people feel that it is more cost-effective to exchange money for stocks, anyway, with stocks, you can receive a lot of dividends from Liulizhai every year, which is much stronger than silver piled up at home mold, if someone buys at a high price, you can also sell it, at the beginning is not only a thousand taels of silver? Now it is sold for 1,300 taels, and it has risen by 30% in the blink of an eye, and a net profit of 300 taels is made.

"The slave obeys, and this will be done." Wang Chengen saw that the emperor agreed to come down, and immediately went to do it.

……

Zhou Wenyao is the younger brother of Empress Zhou, his brother and father were sent by the emperor to buy land in Guangxi, and he was left alone here in the capital, because the queen was favored and had children, and it was very likely that a prince would be born, so he lived a comfortable life.

Liulizhai stocks, he also knows some, in his hand, there are so many stocks, his sister is afraid that he has no money to spend, specially given to him, however, the stocks in his hands have already been bought out, these days, there are even more people to pick him up, since Empress Yi'an's father Zhang Guoji can ask Empress Yi'an to get stocks, your sister is also the queen, and won the emperor's favor, why don't you ask the emperor for some stocks? It's just a matter of getting it, and as soon as it changes hands, you can make a lot of money.

Zhou Wenyao couldn't help his group of fox friends and dog friends, so he found an opportunity and also went into the palace to mention this matter to his sister, so Zhou Wan'er mentioned this matter to Yang Reform again, Yang Reform thought about it, anyway, one person is also selling, and two people are also selling, so it doesn't matter, so Zhou Wenyao also came to sell stocks.

Zhou Mansion.

As soon as Zhou Wenyao entered the door, a group of fox friends surrounded him.

"Brother Yao'er, are you here?"

"Brother Yao, how is it? Have you got the stock? ”

A group of people immediately gathered around and asked about the stock.

Zhou Wenyao smiled quite "imposingly": "Haha......, how can I miss Zhou Wenyao's shot?" Brand new 100 stock ,...... It's in hand......" As soon as Zhou Wenyao entered the room, he immediately pulled out the stock in his sleeve to show his ability.

Everyone took the stock and inspected it, and when they saw that it was indeed a real stock, they praised Zhou Wenyao for his ability and ability.

After arguing for a while, Zhou Wenyao remembered that he should divide the stocks into one point, and said: "Since this money is everyone's share, then, according to the shares, I, Zhou Wenyao, take 12,500 taels, and I will take ten ,...... Brother Chun, this is your ......, Brother Cheng, this is your share of ......"

Zhou Wenyao was proud while dividing the stocks, he bought stocks from the emperor, only 1,200 taels, and gave it to his friends 1,250 taels, he bought a total of 100 from the emperor, only 10 were his own money, and the rest were all from his friends, and he earned 5,000 taels of hard work from his friends, but he took the stocks home from the palace, and it was so easy to make money, and his friends, and then sold those stocks on the market, they could be sold for 1,300 taels, They can earn fifty taels from this, if they sell twenty stocks, then start with one thousand taels, it is so easy to make money, in the capital, where there is a little way, where there is a little energy, where there is a little relationship, all began to drill camps, looking for people with stocks, and some people drilled out of the harem, since this stock is flowing out of the harem, then, and then take the road of the harem, it must work, so, the queen's younger brother, Zhou Wenyao became a fragrant dumpling, so Zhou Wenyao entered the palace to resell stocks. ,

……

Liaodong, Zhenjiang Fort.

Mao Wenlong convened his generals again and prepared to make the final deployment.

"I have summoned you here this time because I want to tell you something." Mao Wenlong said very seriously.

"Please command, Marshal." The crowd shouted together.

"This time, 20,000 people have come from the Tartars, and the commander is ready to drag the Tartars in this Liaodong according to His Majesty's instructions, and not let the Tartars go west......" Mao Wenlong said here, looking at his generals, children and grandchildren.

Seeing that everyone was listening to him, he continued: "......, Ben Shuai thought, if this Zhenjiang Fort wants to attract the Tartars, there must be an attractive target, otherwise, when the Tartars arrive in Phoenix, they will see that there is no one around, and they will go back, or go to other places, I am afraid that they will not come to Zhenjiang Fort, if they do not come to Zhenjiang Fort, 20,000 Tartars, you will not be able to compete with any of them, and it is likely to be broken by each one, so Zhenjiang Fort needs to have a target that can attract Tartars, so Ben Shuai decided to stay here and not leave, and wait for the Tartars to attack...... ”

Before Mao Wenlong's words were finished, the people below made a fuss.

"Dashuai, the children will never agree to Dashuai's danger, how can Dashuai stay in Zhenjiang Fort? Once the Tartars besiege the city, how can the children have the heart to fight outside? will definitely come to the rescue, isn't the arrangement of the handsome completely disrupted? A general of Mao Wenlong said loudly. A large part of Mao Wenlong's generals are his "sons and grandchildren", which can also be regarded as the characteristics of Dongjiang Town.

"Don't make any noise, listen to Ben Shuai." Mao Wenlong was dizzy by the quarrel between his subordinates and children.

The crowd fell silent.

"Do you think that Ben Shuai stayed in this Zhenjiang Fort to wait for death? No, on the contrary, everyone has seen the power of grenades, defending the city with grenades, that power, everyone knows his power, there are only 20,000 Tartars, I took four or five thousand foot soldiers in Zhenjiang Fort, relying on the city wall, relying on grenades, do you think that the Tartars are so easy to attack? Hehe, to put it mildly, the Tartars are afraid that they are dreaming, this time His Majesty has prepared a lot of good things for us, just the grenades, there are tens of thousands, relying on these grenades, Ben Shuai can defend Zhenjiang Fort, then the Tartars are only 20,000 people, not as many as Ben Shuai's grenades, I am a grenade to hurt him alone, Tartars are not enough for my grenades to blow up, want to capture the city, dream? Do you think so? Mao Wenlong told everyone what he thought.

Mao Wenlong is also an "expert" in warfare, especially in the use of firearms in combat, very experienced, since the emperor sent grenades, and demonstrated how to fight grenades, he took it seriously, began to figure out how to "play" grenades. Since this grenade defending the city has such power, he Mao Wenlong will be the first to try it to see if this grenade will work after the large-scale siege of the city by the Tartars.

However, his subordinates obviously disagreed.

"Dashuai, this must not be, this Dongjiang Town still relies on you, you still have to command all kinds of soldiers and horses, and fight with the Tartars, really stay in Zhenjiang Fort, give the Tartars a surrounding, then the brothers outside can't receive the orders of the Dashuai, how should they act? Dashuai, this entire Dongjiang Town, from Tieshan to Jinning, but there are more than a dozen offensive directions, Dashuai is not there, so who do we listen to? Isn't this a mess? ”

"Yes, Dashuai, who will command us without you? Your Majesty is asking us to drag down the Tartars, your old man has arranged for the brothers to attack in ten ways, you don't sit in command, how can this work, Dashuai, don't stay in Zhenjiang Fort, or you come out and find a reliable person to replace you......"

……

These generals of Mao Wenlong, the children and grandchildren resolutely disagree with Mao Wenlong's stay in Zhenjiang Fort to be in danger, the Tartar is already close at hand, once it is known that Mao Wenlong is in Zhenjiang Fort, Zhenjiang Fort will definitely be surrounded by water, then the news inside and outside the city will be broken, in case the city is broken, it will be dangerous. Tartar's hatred for Mao Wenlong is like the people in Dongjiang Town hate Tartar.

Mao Wenlong didn't care, and said: "Okay, everyone's intentions, I know it, I understand it, I know what you said, I also know, but I also have all the considerations, so I plan to do so, not to mention anything else, if I am in Zhenjiang Fort, then the Tartars will come to attack, he is only 20,000 people, I have four or five thousand people in Dongjiang Town, he wants to attack, naturally it is impossible to divide the troops, in this way, your other things, it is easy to do, I will attract the main force of the Tartars to you in this Zhenjiang Fort, and you will take the opportunity to be outside, Wantonly burn their cattle and sheep, kill their old and weak, rob their cattle and sheep, I want to see, no cattle and sheep, no cattle and sheep, how can the Tartars live, hum, this year is dry again, the harvest is not good, the cattle and sheep also die a lot, I will attract the Tartars to you in Zhenjiang Fort, you burn hard outside, hum, or it won't be long, the Tartars will naturally retreat, so, my safety is pinned on whether you are working hard to burn the Tartars, the harder you burn, the safer I am, understand? Mao Wenlong made up his mind and decided to take a risk, using himself as a bait to attract the main force of the Tartars, and let the other parties go to burn the Tartars' fence and rob their cattle and sheep. ,

"Father, this is really not good, your old man is the backbone of Dongjiang Town, without you, aren't you going to mess up?"

"Dashuai, it's better not to take risks like this, in case we mess up outside, wouldn't it be dangerous for Dashuai? Besides, Your Majesty will not agree to your old man's stay in Zhenjiang Fort......"

Anyway, a group of people did not approve of Mao Wenlong's stay in Zhenjiang Fort to attract the main force of the Tartars.

"Alas......, what you have decided will not change, you can rest assured, the Tartars have no cannons, they want to rely on people to climb the city wall, I am not afraid, this time, Your Majesty gave me tens of thousands of grenades, I take forty or fifty thousand to guard Zhenjiang Fort, I don't believe there will be problems,...... Don't say it so badly, even if you don't please outside, I prepared food for four months in Zhenjiang Fort, I don't believe it, the Tartars dare not leave when the snow closes the mountain, if so, I will obey them......" Mao Wenlong and his subordinates began to reason, to convince people, anyway, he decided to use himself as a bait, try to try the grenade to defend the city in the end.

"Dashuai, please, don't embarrass the children, your old man is going to have an accident, we can't afford it, the brothers outside, will pick our skins......" Mao Wenlong's children began to beg Mao Wenlong.

……

"You group of unproductive people, without me Mao Wenlong, you won't be able to walk? I, Mao Wenlong, am not a clay man, and I haven't seen blood, I stubbornly guarded Congyun Island last year, didn't I come over too? Back then, how was it like now? The Tartars didn't be able to do anything to us, and now, our group of hard-working people have grenades given by His Majesty, big internal manufacturing, and even Franc cannons, what are you afraid of? Mao Wenlong said and spoke, tears fell without anger, there is no other reason, fighting to the death with the Tartars, there are no dead people in that family? He Mao Wenlong is no exception.

As soon as Mao Wenlong burst into tears, everyone present also wept, and some even cried "woo". Mao Wenlong's opening of the Dongjiang River is completely a history of blood and tears against the Qing Dynasty, and there is no family in the Dongjiang River who does not have a blood feud with the Tartars.

It was supposed to be a discussion of things, but it turned out to be a meeting of tears, a meeting of weeping.

Mao Wenlong was sad, wiped his tears, and said: "Okay, all of them are not allowed to cry, this time, I, Mao Wenlong, just want to defend Zhenjiang Fort and drag the Tartars, you give me more burning, killing, and robbing more Tartars outside, I Mao Wenlong will be happy, it's worth it, do you hear?" Mao Wenlong was already yelling as he spoke.

"Da Shuai, the last general is willing to take his headquarters to deal with Da Shuai around Zhenjiang Fort, and not let the Tartars concentrate on attacking the city...... " Ma Teng also cried, but seeing that Da Shuai and everyone were very stiff, he made an idea.

"Dashuai, I am also willing to take the people of the headquarters to respond to Dashuai......" As soon as everyone heard this, they all shouted to respond around Zhenjiang Fort.

Mao Wenlong thought for a while, and said: "Okay, everyone don't quarrel, arrange who is around to respond, I naturally know it, Ma Teng, you just take your people and horses around Zhenjiang Fort to specialize, others and others, still do their own things, who dares not to care, don't do their best, I will uncover his ......skin" Mao Wenlong's true colors exploded, and he shouted a few times, which can be regarded as a given matter.
