Zheng Xian looked at this Wu Ruotang, and he really moved his heart to love talents, and he did what they did, of course he knew what a capable assistant meant to him, and he could save his life at a critical moment.

Regarding Zheng Xian's invitation to join the house, Wu Ruotang smiled awkwardly, and then said in a low voice: "To be honest, if you had told me this ten days and half a month earlier, maybe I would have really messed up with you!" Eat meat in large pieces, drink wine in large bowls, so happy! ”

"It's still too late to join in!" Zheng Xian laughed.

"Not now, the elite sailors of the imperial court are about to be pulled!" Wu Ruotang pretended to be panicked and said.

"What?" Hearing this, all the pirates looked incredulous.

Wu Ruotang sighed and said, "Everyone heard it right, the sailors of the imperial court will be in the South China Sea in a few days!" ”

After a short silence, Mao Changfeng shook his head and questioned: "Impossible, impossible, the sailors of the imperial court are coming, such a big news, why is there no rumor at all?" ”

Wu Ruotang immediately defended: "The documents issued by the Ministry of War, this can still be fake!" The Senhe Office also received the military order only three days ago, and if it was fast, maybe the vanguard of the Navy Division would have been deployed! ”

Zheng Xian has been observing Wu Ruotang's expression, and if Wu Ruotang behaves in a trace of unnaturalness, he will inevitably cut off his head. But he underestimated Wu Ruotang too much, because from beginning to end, this guy was too calm. makes people have to believe what he said, even Wu Ruotang himself is already deeply involved in the play at this moment.

"Since the army of the imperial court is here, why does Cao Qianhu have to go to great lengths to recruit An, and directly let the sailor exterminate us!" Zheng Xian said with a gloomy face.

Wu Ruotang had already thought of his words: Ship Master Zheng, you don't know anything about this officialdom. The imperial army came to encircle and suppress, if you were to be wiped out, the credit would be the sailor's, and it would have nothing to do with my family's thousands of households. But if the merit of the sailor is too great, the enemy will be destroyed too much. The generals of the Navy's division would report to the emperor that there were many bandits in the South China Sea, and the local garrison did nothing. Let the bandit power grow! When the time comes, the unlucky ones will be my thousands of households!

Wu Ruotang's words sound quite reasonable, and Zheng Xian should be true. Among them, the most important thing is that Wu Ruotang grasps it accurately, he just wants to show this kind of indecisive attitude, so that Zheng Xian feels that the reason why the official army is willing to recruit him is also a last resort. Otherwise, with the suspicious character of the pirate, he will definitely not be fooled.

Sure enough, after all the words were finished, the pirates had nothing to say. At least for now, there are no flaws.

"In this way, this matter of recruiting security is also Cao Qianhu's delaying tactic, after this limelight, presumably Cao Qianhu will take our brother to it?" Zheng Xian said with a smile.

Wu Ruotang immediately patted his chest and promised: "Ship Master Zheng, please rest assured, my family has said it." As long as you are willing to submit, he will give you a hundred households! ”

Zheng Xian, who was originally careless, immediately became short of breath when he heard this. 100 households, this is the official of the sixth grade. As long as it is a Han Chinese, who doesn't want to add officials to the knighthood and glorify their ancestors? Although Zheng Xian has been adrift at sea for ten years, he still yearns for the mainland in his heart, and his roots are also in the mainland. He who dies will be buried on the land. In these years, people pay attention to the fallen leaves and return to their roots, and they are buried at sea from time to time.

"Does Lord Cao have such great power?" Zheng Xian's heart was moved, so he spoke more respectfully.

Wu Ruotang nodded with a smile and said, "Please rest assured, Master Zheng, this is what my family said to me personally!" ”

Zheng Xian nodded with satisfaction, but the faces of many of his subordinates immediately became difficult to see, obviously, they were all unwilling to be recruited.

"Ship owner, I'm afraid of deception! The officer and soldier have never believed their word. I'm afraid that they will recruit you with the front foot, and the back foot will break you and your brothers apart, and when the time comes, one by one, the shipowner, we have to guard against it! "Mao Changfeng spared no effort to stop Zhao'an.

The words of his subordinates attracted Zheng Xian's attention. Indeed, although many famous pirates have been recruited over the years. There are those who have been poisoned, those who have been knighted, and those who have lived their lives in a chic way. It depends on the pirates' personal tactics. Zheng Xian actually doesn't have a big heart, he just wants to wash his name. He is conceited, and he feels that with his own means, it is not a problem to mix with hundreds of households.

Without waiting for Zheng Xian to speak, Wu Ruotang immediately relieved him and said: "My family has already stated that if the Zheng ship owner is sincere and obedient, your subordinates will still be led by you!" But ugly words ahead! If you become an official soldier, you can't be as unscrupulous as a pirate. Everything has to have a scale! ”

Wu Ruotang said with a nose and eyes, Zheng Xian nodded again and again on the side: "This is nature, this is nature!" ”

Zheng Xian's respectful attitude has truly reflected his inner thoughts, and he wants to recruit An!

The Mingfeng Empire has always been mainly attacking the city, supplemented by attacking the heart! As long as you have enough strength, enough means! can make the court feel jealous, and feel that it is not cost-effective to attack you. Then they will naturally find a way to recruit you, because it is the best choice of both worlds.

Of course, there are also prerequisites for being recruited. You can have some criminal records, but you must not commit too many things, such as killing officials! If there are court officials who have been killed by you, it is generally difficult to be recruited, and even if you are recruited, someone will try to get rid of you, which is inevitable.

Although Zheng Xian has been killing people for so many years, he is very cautious and has never attacked the official family! So he's not worried. But the No. 2 person, Mao Changfeng, can't. The reason why he fell into the grass was that he once killed the county commander in a fit of anger. The imperial court went down to the sea to catch documents. It's hard to turn back on such a person.

"Mr. Wu, let's go inside and talk in detail!" At this time, Zheng Xianfang Buddha had already seen himself wearing official uniforms and riding horses around the streets.

Mao Changfeng on the side had a dark face, but there was no way, Zheng Xian was the owner of the ship, and he had the final say.

Wu Ruotang and Zheng Xian entered the cabin one after another, I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, Mao Changfeng did not follow up.

"Wu Zongqi is so calm and calm at a young age, he will be the lord of the king and the prime minister one day!" After Zheng Xian poured a glass of water for Wu Ruotang, he praised it.

The words of the robbers naturally can't be taken to heart, Wu Ruotang just snorted and dealt with it.

After another rambling, the two got to the point. At this time, Wu Ruotang realized that he seemed to have told a big lie, and people will do anything to survive, this sentence is really true. But poor Zheng Xian didn't know that he had been tricked.
