Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Sword of the Big Head
He was decisive, he didn't even hesitate, and immediately replied: "Everything is up to the young master, the old slave has no disrespect, and the master must have no opinion." β
Seeing that he agreed to be refreshing, Zhong Guerrilla shot the case and laughed, "Old housekeeper, I didn't think you would talk much before, I couldn't imagine that you were so refreshing, don't worry, your Yan family, we Ningbo Bawei Baoding." β
got his words, the old housekeeper breathed a sigh in his heart, this Zhong guerrilla he is familiar with, it is Cai Taicai Governor under the hands of the hand, if it is not because the qualifications are really shallow, Zhejiang can also be the commander, what he said, Governor Cai also has to give a few thin faces, not to mention Ningbo Bawei, which is equal to one-third of Zhejiang's military guard force, since he is willing to protect the Yan family, as long as the old man is safe, then the Yan family will really be fine.
He sighed secretly in his heart, people really can't be compared! I haven't known this guerrilla Zhong for a year or two, and I usually say that I am also feeding silver, but people are cold and indifferent to our Yan family, but they are familiar with Zheng Xiaoxianggong at first sight, I really didn't expect it...... In the end, the Yan family still has to rely on the Zheng family to protect it. Thinking of this, he actually pinched a cold sweat in his heart, if the little minister refused to protect their Yan family, I am afraid that the two hundred people of the Yan family would not survive tonight...... Sure enough, the official has two mouths, no matter how rich he is, he can't resist the mouth of an official who wants to eat people!
Looking at his expression, Zhong Li knew what he was in his stomach, so he simply picked out the words clearly, and laughed twice, "Old butler, don't be reluctant to listen to what I say, you maritime merchants!" In my eyes, it's just a night pot, if it weren't for my brother Zheng desperately protecting you, hehe! To be honest, if it weren't for my brother, I wouldn't be happy to wade into this troubled water, the 200,000 cash silver you brought on your ship, plus two ships, if you count the three ships tied up and 500 Fran cannons......"
He paused, took a leisurely sip of tea, and then said slowly: "How can a clipper ship with the small Furlong cannon on it be sold for eight thousand taels even if it is depreciated!" Five ships are 40,000 yuan, and I estimate that there will be 2,340,000 yuan in silver, that is, 280,000 yuan, and the big deal of 600,000 yuan, we will have to bite it anyway, if we don't have 300,000 taels, then our Ningbo Bawei will not run away in vain......"
These words are knocking on the old housekeeper Yan, and you Yan family will be wiped out, and you don't have to worry so much about getting 580,000 taels of silver in vain, and in the future, others will do business with the governor, and they still have to spend money to buy peace, and this in and out of the house, that is, six or seven hundred thousand snowflake silver, and now I only accept you 400,000 taels, that is the face I gave to my brother Zheng.
This is said so naked, even the old housekeeper's cultivation experience, the old face is a little unbearable, but knowing that people are telling the truth, I have to lower my head to thank others, the moment I bow my head, I only feel that my throat is fishy, I gritted my teeth, and swallowed it again.
This is the official standard for thousands of years, no matter how big your family business is, when the upper and lower mouths of the officials touch, you will be unbearable.
Old Butler Yan was gloomy in his heart, and said in his heart, this is all the old man's early ...... The master he said at this time, that is Yan Dazhang's father, Yan Dazhang's father is a lifter, and Yan Dazhang is just a showman, this lifter and a showman, the difference is big, you must know that you can be an official if you raise a large person, although the proportion is very small, but Xiucai can only be an official, at most, you have talent to learn, like Mr. Qingteng, be a friend of the scene, but just like Mr. Qingteng Xu Wenchang, as soon as the backer Hu Zongxian fell, he immediately finished the game, and he became an official, even if he was demoted, he could be reinstated as an official again.
Therefore, after Yan Dazhang's father drove the crane to the west, the Yan family seemed to be full of flowers and cooking oil, but in fact, it was paving the way down, but unfortunately, none of the children of the Yan family had realized it, as for Miss Yan, not to mention, she was still intoxicated with the name of the first lady in Zhejiang, and was keen to sing poetry and exchange with some famous people, but she didn't know that the Yan family seemed to be walking on a single-plank bridge on the cliff, and if you were not careful, you would be crushed.
Thinking of this, although his old face was hot for a while, he still got up and gave Zheng Guofan a big gift, "Young master, thank you very much, old slave." The good official hurriedly stretched out his hand to drag him, he was a lot old, and he was suspected of losing his life when he received this gift.
"It's just, young master, young lady, she ......" The old housekeeper also wanted to say that Miss Yan's surname was delicate and didn't understand vulgar etiquette, and she wanted to ask the young master to take care of her, but when this came to her lips, she couldn't say it anyway.
The old man just took the Zheng family to Ningbo by boat, and half sold and half gave away a house, but Zheng Xiaoxianggong wrote poems to the family, not to mention, and the poems were not easy to argue, only that he heard that others were going to rob the Yan family's goods, so he ran to the door to report the news, and he was already worthy of the Yan family, but he hated himself for refusing to listen to others at that time, otherwise why not. As for later, the young lady came to the door to persecute her, and it was already the Yan family who owed it upside down, but when they got on the boat, they didn't say a word, and took their family name to guarantee the Yan family.
Although it is said that this Zhong guerrilla looks at him pleasing to the eye, but the word is the head, this sea is vast, who knows what these Qiu Ba will do for the silver, as long as he doesn't open his mouth, he must have gone around the sea and returned to Ningbo, but Zheng Xianggong still uses his family name to guarantee the Yan family, speaking of which, the Yan family threw hundreds of thousands of taels of silver into it, but Zheng Xiaoxianggong is protecting the Yan family with his life! If there is no Zheng Xiaoxianggong, the huge family will be reduced to nothing in an instant...... How can he, an old guy, still talk about it and let the family take care of the young lady more?
Therefore, when the words came to his mouth, he hesitated for a long time, but he still swallowed hard, and his face was full of despair.
The obedient official looked at his expression, saw that he was spitting, and knew what he wanted to say, and he didn't say anything, and smiled.
Since everyone has made everything clear and clear, it is not hidden, the little Furong who is favored by Zhong Guerrilla over there smiled and cooked a cup of tea for the old butler Yan, and the three of them discussed for a while, and decided to go to the sea area thirty miles away from the Ryukyus, and let the Yan family's fast ship go to the Ryukyus alone, and the fleet of Ningbo Bawei was at sea, acting according to the signal.
The guerrilla summoned another man dressed in a hundred military attachΓ©s, looking in his twenties, with a knife face, lean and slightly darkened, and people liked to raise an eyebrow, one high and one low, which made it look like he was smiling strangely.
"This is my old brother, and now he is leading the title of Zhenhaiwei to test a hundred households, he is clever and skilled, so let him bring twenty heroes in the army to wear the clothes of your Yan family." Zhongli pointed to the man and introduced.
"Zhong Guerrilla, the previous one was also followed by fifty military guards...... Are these twenty a little less? The old butler expressed doubts about the power of the young man and the twenty so-called good men of the army.
The knife-faced trial hundred households were not happy, snorted, and said, "Old man, if it weren't for your age...... The soldiers under my Hu Litao, even if they are put on the nine sides, they are still first-class elite soldiers. β
Zhongli grinned and said, "Don't underestimate him, the people under him are all from the rivers and lakes, all of them make a good knife, and then use military law to suppress the rebellious surname in the army, that is really a first-class hero, and it is easy to deal with hundreds of them." β
Since Zhong Guerrilla said so, it must be the elite of the elite, Yan Lao Butler hurriedly apologized, and then tried Baihu snorted, but there was no squeak, but Zhong Guerrilla pointed out and told him, when it comes to the critical time, it doesn't matter to others, you must protect my brother's thoughtfulness, come back safely, just credit you, if there is anything wrong, don't come back.
As soon as he said this, the old housekeeper Yan and the good official were a little embarrassed, this was too obvious, and it was clearly told to everyone that if there was any force majeure, just don't care about the life or death of the head of the Yan family, just protect my brother.
He Zhongli is indeed qualified to say this, although he is only a guerrilla general, but Ningbo Bawei has no generals, let alone a general army, in fact, he is the biggest, even those thousand households, they have to listen to the orders of him, the deputy thousand households with the title of guerrilla general, this is also what Governor Cai Taicai specially did in order to let him go.
What's more, this Hu Litao is also his former old brother, and he is also from the green forest, a Ditang knife makes him superb, and when he rolls to the ground, he is really dusty and black smoke is billowing out, but this guy has been a hundred households since he tried a hundred households, and he is proud of his identity, but he refuses to practice the Ditang knife anymore, and he transferred to a set of Xinyou knife techniques, which is the so-called Japanese knife technique, and the full moon cut that Shan Chixia taught to the obedient official, are all the circulation of this Yin Stream.
In order to hide the embarrassment on his face, the obedient official coughed low and arched his hand, "Xiaosheng Zheng Guofan, Hu Baihu, please do a lot." β
The knife-faced Bai Hu glanced at him with one side of his eyebrows, snorted, seemed to agree, and seemed to be disdainful, so he annoyed the big head next to the obedient official, and the Yanling knife even sheathed at him, and said crisply: "You guy, so rude, what a big name our young master is, the people who come and go are all Sanwu celebrities, and even Yayuan of the Nanzhili Township Test has to salute each other with my young master, and I don't understand the rules at all." β
As soon as he said this, the other party had a strange expression on his face, and he didn't know whether he wanted to cry or laugh, after all, he tried a hundred households, and he could take the Zhongxiang test Yayuan, basically it was almost stable for the Zhongjin Shi to be a third- or fourth-grade officer, but how could he be willing to show weakness to a child! He pursed his lips and whispered, hairless on his mouth.
"You ......" the big head glared, the two eyes that were a little open suddenly widened, a soft sound, and pulled out the Yanling knife in the hand, this knife out of the knife is very fast, using the technique of drawing the knife, only to see the knife flash, and then the big head pressed the scabbard to take the knife back to the sheath, at this time Zhong Guerrilla pampered little Hibiscus screamed softly, everyone looked, but the tea ou on the coffee table next to it was cut in half, and the tea in it flowed all over the ground.
Zhongli and this Hu Litao are both good at using knives, especially Zhongli, who has been fighting in the green forest, and he is the most peak age among men, and his self-confidence knife skills are second to none, he looked at the knife drawing technique of the big head, but he couldn't help but feel a chill, and said that he had already looked up at this kid, but he didn't think of it, but he still looked down on him, if I didn't pay attention to this knife, I was afraid that I would also be injured.
That Hu Litao also raised his eyebrows, and the hairs on the back of his ears stood up, and he said in his heart that this child with long hands and feet and a little big head looked like he was twelve or thirteen years old! actually made such a powerful fast knife, if I was not careful, wouldn't I be given by him with a knife...... Thinking about it, I couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
"Big head, it's so rude." The good official had to scold him, but this person! has a little bit of cheap bones, that try to hundreds of households Hu Litao was threatened by the big head, but he thought that he was qualified to be on an equal footing with himself, but he turned to smile and shook his hand and said Okay, this little brother's fast knife must be from a family history.
There is no child who is not vain, with a big head and a high chin, and a proud face, "My father was the first in Zhejiang swordsmanship twenty years ago, and now he is the first in swordsmanship in the entire Ming Dynasty." β
The good official's face was full of embarrassment, and he was so ashamed that he couldn't find a crack to get into, and said in his heart that you stinky boy would talk nonsense, where could there be such a reason to boast about yourself, so he had to laugh and say: "My scholar is only eleven years old, and everyone laughs at it." β
As a result, Hu Litao's eyes lit up, "But the old man of Shan Chixia, who was known as the No. 1 swordsman in Zhejiang? β
When the big head hears it, he's crooked! You know my father's name! He was even more proud, and nodded vigorously, "That's my father." β
Ah!
Zhongli and Hu Litao smacked their lips at the same time, and this Zhong guerrilla said, "Brother, I didn't expect that there are still masters hidden in your family!" Hu Litao looked embarrassed, "It turned out to be the son of a single senior, no wonder he made a good knife, the set of Xinyou knife techniques I am practicing now is said to have been created by Shan seniors back then, this little brother, is this true or false?" β
The big head shook his head, and Hu Litao was suddenly a little disappointed, but the big head answered, "My father said that the set of sword techniques was detailed in the secret book of Fusang Island, and Qi Shaobao asked to teach it to all the soldiers within two months, so the compilation is not very imperfect, I have been carefully changed by my father since elementary school, and that is where my father's hard work lies!" β
The good official almost vomited blood next to him, this ...... It's simply a typical way to slap your face and step on people in a novel!
Sure enough, Hu Litao's face suddenly became more and more embarrassed, and he chuckled twice, but he didn't know what to say, and he wanted to ask other children to play two knives to take a look! I was embarrassed to open that mouth again, Zhongli kept smacking his lips, "Who on the ground in Zhejiang doesn't know that Shan Chixia Shan is an old man, who was also a famous man in the green forest back then, and later followed Grandpa Qi to suppress the widows, which is really majestic!" Little brother, your knife skills are good, it's really good. β
"My father said that the swordsmanship practiced by the young master is the real secret meaning, and it is more powerful than my swordsmanship." The big head opened his mouth, and poked a hole in the obedient official, "A sword can cut Feiyan." β
