As for Chu Cailao's temporary abandonment of Dongshan Island and retreat to the coastal area of Chaozhou, Guangdong, it is also an agreement between Yu Xiaotian and Chu Cailao.

Although Yu Xiaotian now has Xiong Wencan's support in Fujian, and his status is temporarily stable, Yu Xiaotian also understands the truth that rabbits and dogs are cooked and birds are hidden.

If the coastal area of Fujian, only his sea wolf family is dominant, then sooner or later it will become the object of jealousy of the imperial court, and the necessity of the existence of the sea wolf will definitely be greatly reduced, the Ming Dynasty has always been worried about the military generals' self-respect, and try their best to restrict it, once they feel that Yu Xiaotian does not need to exist, it is certain that the court and the government will do everything possible to weaken and divide the sea wolf in the days to come, and even if the dagger is poor, it is not impossible to kill Xiaotian.

Therefore, raising Kou self-respect has become the most realistic choice for Yu Xiaotian at the moment, but it is a pity that he did things a little too much before, some famous giants in the coastal area of Fujian, now almost all of them have been cleaned up by him, even if they are not killed or annexed by him, they have no choice but to flee from the coastal areas of Fujian, either go north to the coastal areas of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, or run to the coastal areas of Liangguang to survive.

Even a few pirates were forced to leave the country in desperation, and ran away with their men to the South Seas, where they settled down and continued to do their business of cutting the path and robbing ships.

As a result, there are really few groups of pirates who can pose a threat to the coastal areas of Fujian.

Now Chu Cailao and Yan Siqi are probably the last two pirate forces that can cause the government to be jealous, if he rushes forward at this time, and even the two of them are annexed and killed, then it is estimated that he will soon become the object of Xiong Wencan's jealousy.

Therefore, Yu Xiaotian finally adopted Lin Yiyang's suggestion to retain Yan Siqi's independence, and at the same time preserve part of Chu Cailao's strength.

Chu Cailao ostensibly withdrew from the coastal area of Fujian, but in private he still maintained secret contact with Yu Xiaotian, once needed, Yu Xiaotian only needed to release the water, Chu Cailao would go north and return to the coastal activities of Fujian, which is probably the most realistic version of raising Kou's self-respect.

Of course, as the governor of Fujian, Xiong Wencan of course did not know Yu Xiaotian's greasy, after he ordered Yu Xiaotian to expel Chu Cailao from the coast of Zhangzhou, only a few days later, Yu Xiaotian passed on the news of his victory, Xiong Wencan felt extremely happy for this big victory, this is his first harvest after the act of appeasing Yu Xiaotian, and he can finally write a special book, so he personally wrote a chapter and reported to the court to ask for credit for Yu Xiaotian.

And this time, Yu Xiaotian's action did not invite any officials and soldiers in Fujian to participate, and at the same time, he did not ask Xiong Wencan for more food and supplies, but basically used his own people and materials, and did this matter alone.

Afterwards, in Xiaotian's department, a total of more than 300 pirates were killed, and more than 1,000 thieves under Chu Cai's old men were captured.

This kind of credit will inevitably make people blush, so the officials of Zhangzhou Mansion and Quanzhou Mansion secretly found Yu Xiaotian and wanted to share a little profit from this credit, Yu Xiaotian was not stingy, and gave each of them fifty levels of thieves, and each sent more than 100 captured thieves.

Even in the battle report he submitted, he did not forget to give Cai Shanji a share of the credit, emphasizing that Cai Shanji, the deputy envoy of Haidao, took the lead and sat down to command, so that they achieved such a great victory.

When Cai Shanji learned the news, he immediately closed his mouth happily, and mentioned to his wife and concubine many times in the inner house, although Yu Xiaotian used to be a Haikou, but he really knew how to behave, and he invisibly looked up to Xiaotian again, and also kept Xiaotian's approach in mind, and decided to win over Yu Xiaotian in the future.

So far, Yu Xiaotian has completely gained a foothold in the Fujian official and has become a recognized coastal defense general.

Of course, when Yu Xiaotian was doing these things, he naturally did not forget to operate Wai Tau Bay and open up the port of Dagou, and since he was appeased, he immediately recruited craftsmen in Wai Tau Bay and began to build various port and terminal facilities in large quantities.

He personally led people to survey the hydrological conditions and geological topography of Wai Tau Bay, and divided Wai Tau Bay into several ports according to the topography, among which a lighthouse was set up in Wai Tau Kok in the south of Fuquan So, to provide instructions for ships entering and leaving Wai Tau Bay at night and at night.

In addition, in the west of Wai Tau Kok, migrant workers were recruited to construct a seawall that was more than 100 zhang long into the sea, so that it formed a bay corner that could shelter from the wind and waves, and on the inner side of the bay corner, a wharf with a total of five trestle bridges was built, which officially became the home port of the second fleet of the sea wolf.

In addition, several wharves were built in the interior of Weitou Bay, which were specially built for merchant ships to berth and disembark goods, and a wharf was also built on Kinmen Island and Xiamen Island for warships to berth, so that Weitou Bay officially had the ability to open the sea, which could be used for a large number of merchant ships and warships to enter the berth and load and unload goods.

As for the Moon Harbor side, since it was destroyed by a fire by the sea wolf, coupled with the obscenity of Xiaotian, the previous merchant ships no longer dared to trade in the Moon Harbor, and could only enter Weitou Bay to trade, so that after the Moon Harbor suffered this catastrophe, it never recovered its previous grand state, and it was completely decayed.

Many merchants in Haicheng County, seeing that Yuegang is so depressed, no longer prosperous, and there are no more businessmen pouring into Yuegang, with the government's own financial ability, it is impossible to rebuild various facilities such as wharves and other burned down, so many businessmen who were originally entrenched in the vicinity of Yuegang can only reluctantly give up Haicheng, and instead begin to move to the area of Tong'an Weitouwan, looking for new opportunities to make money.

And Yu Xiaotian also took advantage of the situation, and after some careful investigation, he finally chose another time and space Zheng Zhilong once chose to establish the area of Anping City, carved out a large area, and built a large wharf, which was specially used by mainland merchants to gather in this area and trade with maritime merchants, so that more goods could be boarded and sailed from here.

In this way, as long as someone is guided by the situation, driven by the instinct of businessmen to pursue profits, in just one or two months, a large number of businessmen will flock to this area, and begin to sell land to build shops, so that the original depressed area, almost overnight, will suddenly become lively, every day there are a large number of laborers rushed here to find work, one by one shops rose from the ground, so that the original land price was not high, in a short period of time, it has increased dozens of times.

As the initiator, Yu Xiaotian, before this, had already used both soft and hard means to buy all the land in this area into his own hands, but he just did not use his name, but put the land in this area under the name of Zhao Mazi, but if there are businessmen who want to buy land here to establish shops, it is indispensable to buy land from the sea wolf.

In this way, just the income from the sale of land to merchants to build shops made Yu Xiaotian earn a lot of money, and he made dozens of times more silver.

In addition to this, Yu Xiaotian also surrounded the area of Weitou Bay and bought land on a large scale, because he knew very well that as long as Weitou Bay was built as a commercial port in the future, the surrounding land would definitely increase in value significantly, and multi-real estate trading could also be a windfall business, how could Yu Xiaotian let go of this opportunity.

Of course, the acquisition of land is not as simple as imagined, in addition to the business opportunities he sees here, of course, there are smart people from the current situation, see the business opportunities, and there are also people who want to buy land in this area, including some of the original local landlords, and they are not willing to sell the land easily at this time.

But when Yu Xiaotian wanted to buy these lands, things became much simpler, Yu Xiaotian was not afraid of pulling more hatred for himself, and he could be described as both soft and hard to these landlords, first buying them with money, it didn't matter if the price was high, as long as they were willing to sell, but some of them really didn't open their eyes, and they refused to give up this piece of fat when they said anything.

For some ordinary people who only own a small amount of land, Yu Xiaotian ordered the council to buy them at a price far higher than the market price, and tried not to oppress them, but for those landlords who owned a large amount of land, there were no such good conditions.

As a result, these stubborn landlords were out of luck, and they didn't even need Yu Xiaotian's secret instructions, just a bunch of guys in charge of acquiring the land, and some local ruffians would immediately flock to the door and begin to find endless trouble with these landlords.

The ruffians have all kinds of shady means, as long as they want to do one thing, it is really not too difficult to do it, these landlords and their ruffians in the past can not be provoked, these landlords are all local gentry, who has nothing to do with the government? Under normal circumstances, the ruffians do not dare to provoke them, otherwise they will move their mouths, and the government will send messengers to arrest these ruffians and arrest them into the yamen, and if the owner is not satisfied, he can spend some more money and kill them on the spot, and there will be no consequences.

But now it's different, they have General Yu behind them to support them, what else do they dare not do? Even if these landlords and gentry went to the official yamen to complain, now as long as they hear that it is the matter of Yu Xiaotian and General Yu, these officials in Quanzhou will not be able to avoid it, where can they dare to touch the mold of General Yu!

At first, some of the head-catchers in the official office did not know what was going on here, and after receiving the money from the victim, they immediately ran to arrest people, but before they could arrest people back to the yamen, they would be bailed out by the people of the General's Mansion with a letter of guarantee, and some of the guys who didn't open their eyes also tried to secretly do tricks and feet to knock and knock on those ruffians who made trouble, but within two days these blind guys disappeared inexplicably.
