Chapter 54: One Night

"Old Sun, what happened last night? The gunfire scared people to death, and I hid under the bed all night. ”

"I heard my nephew, who was on an errand in the port, say that the sky has changed in the city of Malacca. ”

"No wonder, I don't know who is in charge of Malacca this time, but don't be like the black-hearted Mai Dangsi, who knows how to oppress our people. ”

"Old Li Tou, we are lucky, someone in charge of us is here, I heard my nephew say, it was the Ming Dynasty's Marquis Shen who used a plan to occupy Malacca, like a divine soldier descending from the sky. ”

"The person who spoke for us came, and it was a real change. ”

Two Chinese people dressed up in the alley discussed, the high point is Lao Li, the short and fat is Lao Sun, is the first generation of Chinese to Malacca, teenagers from the southern coast, wanted to make a career, but never thought, the political situation here is unstable, first the Malacca royal family internal struggle for power, resulting in chaos, has not stabilized, and was colonized by Portugal, a lifetime of business has been looted, it can be said that these two old Chinese are a large number of symbols of the South Seas, lucky to make a fortune, can not protect their wealth.

"Go to the Governor's Mansion and ask for an explanation, so that McDangsi can return our belongings. The stout old grandson proposed.

"Okay, I agree with your opinion, the current Malacca is the final word of the Marquis of Daming. Lao Li's very bent back suddenly straightened up a little.

"Then we'll gather some more old fellows and get justice for ourselves. Lao Sun suddenly had the momentum of his youth, and took the lead to greet those suffering old guys, those old neighbors heard that they could get their belongings back, how could there be no response, one passed two, two passed four, and gathered more than two hundred people at once, and the crowd marched towards the Governor's Palace, some indigenous Malayans also heard the news today, and also joined the queue, they hoped that the Marquis of the Ming Dynasty could make decisions for them, in the early years, the land king of Malacca had to be canonized by the Ming Emperor, and it has always been the territory of the Ming Dynasty.

In the large square in front of the Governor's Palace, more than 10,000 people gathered in the morning, so to speak, 10,000 empty alleys, all gathered in the square.

When the guards of the governor's palace saw this momentum, they thought that the local people were going to rebel, and more than a dozen guards pointed their anger at the people who came to ask for an explanation. One of them hurried to tell Governor Long Erniu.

Long Erniu was the governor for the first time, where had he seen this kind of formation, he was a little panicked in his heart, he was neatly dressed, and put the governor uniform of Mai Dangsi on his body, and he was very majestic at once, and his heart was also full of confidence, and under the escort of the two brothers, he walked out of the governor's palace.

The square was crowded with people, black and oppressive, men, women and children, and even people of different colors, "Lord Governor, make decisions for us!" "Lord Governor, I am so wronged. "Sir, help us, we can't live anymore." Everyone was telling of their suffering, but none of them could hear clearly.

Long Erniu was a little panicked, such a formation, the fierce appearance of the people of Malacca, as if they were going to eat people, of course, they were unleashing their anger at the former governor.

On the first day of being a governor, he encountered this situation, it seems that a good governor is not so easy to be, Long Erniu had a headache, frowned tightly, thinking about how to deal with it, he was so anxious that his head was sweating, and suddenly slapped his head, it is better to take out the culprit of Mai Dangsi, and let him give an explanation to the residents of Malacca.

"Quiet, fathers and fellow villagers, I am the new governor Long Erniu, and I will definitely give you an explanation today, you should be calm and restless. Long Erniu stretched out his hands to stop the surging crowd, and then instructed the two guards to escort Mai Dangsi over.

Soon, McDangsi was escorted out and tied to a stone pillar in front of the Governor's Palace, with a number of crosses beside it, which he had used to execute the rebels and the inhabitants who did not pay their taxes until today, and it was a great irony to think that he would be tied here today.

With his gray head down and his legs trembling, he knew that the people were eager to eat his flesh.

"Kill him, this dog offal!" "Mai Dangsi, you also have today?" "Return my land!" "Return my shop." "Mai Dangsi, you brute, you ruined me as an adult girl, I want to castrate you!"

The appearance of Mai Dangsi made the emotions of these residents even more out of control, constantly smashing eggs, vegetables, and stones on Mai Dangsi's body, venting the long-pent-up anger, if it wasn't for the guards to stop them, they would have rushed up to bite Mai Dangsi.

"Spare my life! I am willing to pay it back. "Mai Dangsi was tossed enough.

Shen Lang slept all night, very steady, early in the morning, he heard the noise in the square, he couldn't sleep anymore, as soon as he sat up, Luo Lina called him face wash and served him to wash.

Ignoring breakfast, Shen Lang walked out of the Governor's Palace, and as soon as he appeared, that extraordinary momentum calmed the people in the square, and the square became quiet.

The residents of Malacca were taken by Shen Lang's momentum and did not dare to speak anymore, because such a person is in charge of life and death to seize power, and killing a person is like pinching an ant to death.

Shen Lang was very satisfied with their performance, and also admired his superiority, standing out from the crowd, looking around, and said loudly.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I am Shen Lang, the marquis of the Ming Dynasty, I have long known the situation of the fathers and elders in Malacca, everyone has been oppressed and bullied by Mai Dangsi, I am the marquis of the Ming Dynasty, sent by the emperor to stabilize the situation in Malaya, so I launched a surprise attack last night to capture Malacca in one fell swoop, I fathers and elders, the future Malacca is all of us, not anyone's, as for the losses you have suffered, once verified, you can come to the treasury of the Governor's Mansion to withdraw, you were occupied by Mai Dangsi, the grange, shops, wives and daughters, I order all to be returned. As soon as Shen Lang's words fell, the people in the square jumped up excitedly, this is really the Marquis of Daming, the Marquis of Daming, the Marquis of the people, he will be in charge in the future, and he will never be bullied again.

"Hou Ye is the Lord of the Blue Sky!" "We are blessed!" "Thank you Hou Ye!" The passion of the crowd is ignited, and their losses will be made up, and they can live a worry-free life from now on.

Shen Lang waved his hand to make the square quiet, and then said, "Everyone, in the next month, your embezzled assets can be recovered, you can set up a commission meeting, recommend a few respected seniors to preside, take them as the main thing, inform the committee of all your situations first, and then the commission will contact the governor's mansion to help you deal with the problem, otherwise thousands of people will come to the governor's mansion, and our governor Long Erniu will be exhausted to death by you, so how can he protect you!"

"It's still the Hou Ye who has a way, how can it be done if there is a mess like us!" those people nodded one after another.

"Very good, if the promotion committee you recommended is established, discuss the handling of the matter with Governor Long, everyone, the current Malacca is everyone's, we must protect her together, and the young and middle-aged of you can join the defense team, not only to protect Malacca, but also to pay three taels of silver every month. ”

"Wow, so much?" "It's much better than Dangmai's doglegs!"

"We not only want to protect Malacca, but also let everyone live a good life, I will tell you in advance, I will build a tin foil factory here, some of you who have nothing to do can join my tin foil factory, become an employee, a monthly salary of two taels of silver, when the time comes, you and your family will not be hungry." Shen Lang continued.

"Hou Ye is really thinking about us Malacca, how can it be like Mai Dangsi, who will only exploit and harm us, Hou Ye is the master for us, execute Mai Dangsi and his lackeys!" Lao Li and Lao Sun finally squeezed to the front and looked at Shen Lang excitedly.

"As for what to do with Mai Dangsi and his men, I will hand it over to Governor Long and you. After Shen Lang finished speaking, he walked into the Governor's Mansion with a relaxed face, Chun Xiang and Xia He were ready to be early, and after saying it for so long, they had to go and eat something to get their stomachs right.

"Thank you, Hou Ye!

These people received a satisfactory reply and recommended the establishment of a promotion committee, Lao Li and Lao Sun were very honored and were elected as committee members, and soon they went back to work and liquidated their embezzled assets.

Long Erniu saw Shen Lang settle things in a few words, and he also won the hearts of the people in Malacca all of a sudden, he couldn't help but admire, this brother-in-law is too capable and has to study hard.
