130 Old Deal

Tang Ping didn't answer the man's question with a face, but turned his head to look at Shang Sixian, after all, this was his country.

Shang Sixian also shook his head in confusion, why does this person feel more awesome than himself, the king of the Ryukyus?

So he asked, "Who are you?" ”

"Hey, who am I?" The man was glad, and then said to the shopkeeper of the barry, "Tell them who I am." ”

The shopkeeper smiled bitterly and said to Tang Ping: "This is the Dong Ye of Tamsui Port." ”

Then he begged that Dong Ye: "Dong Ye, I want to sell it to you at your price, I really lost all the pants, you can do it, can you add some more?" You have to be willing to ......"

The shopkeeper gritted his teeth: "I will sell you this batch of grain today." ”

Tang Ping and the others glanced at each other, it seems that this Dong Ye is not small, even if the local grain merchant lowers the price, he must sell the money to him first.

Shang Sixian was even more confused, this time because Tang Ping's request was to be low-key, so he persuaded the minister of the DPRK and China to come to Tamsui to greet Tang Ping in person, this is also the first time he has come out of the "micro-suit" alone, I didn't expect that there are such characters in Tamsui Port under his rule.

You must know that he has also been to Chang'an, and he has learned about the grain prices in various places along the way, and it can be said that the grain price in this Tamsui Port is already the lowest price he knows.

"Dong Ye is a businessman?" Shang Sixian asked with a frown.

"Naturally, he is a businessman, but he is not an ordinary businessman!" The Dong Ye said with a smug face: "I am doing things for Lord Barab, who has passed away from Sri Buddha. ”

He chattered, Tang Ping didn't even understand it, or Qian Laosan whispered behind Tang Ping: "Sri Buddha is a country where all monks are gone, and I heard that it has a lot of power in Nanyang. ”

"But I listened to you and thought you were from the Ryukyus." Shang Sixian said.

"What's wrong with the Ryukyu people? Can't the Ryukyuan people do anything for the deceased Lord of Sri Buddha? That Dong Ye looked proud: "Don't talk nonsense, did you receive the news?" Sixty warships came to the sea in the north, and they were all our Lord Barab, if you don't give me face today, you won't give face to Lord Barab, and then Lord Barab will be angry, I'm afraid that even our Majesty won't be able to eat it! ”

Tang Ping and the others looked at each other, sixty battleships in the north, it sounded familiar, it seemed that except for them, no one could drive sixty battleships from the north, right?

Good guy, when it comes to this Dong Ye's mouth, the direct nationality has been changed for them, and they have been replaced by the person who has passed away.

Tang Ping: They won't be frightened, but the grain store shopkeeper is really frightened.

Tang Ping and their fleet stopped at sea, and the Ryukyu royal family got the news, so they naturally didn't panic, but those local fishing boats on the sea saw something, but they didn't know where they came from.

In addition, Tang Ping didn't want to reveal his identity, so in the absence of a report from the government, the people of Tamsui Port didn't know what the warship in the north was, and they were still a little worried for a while.

What is the concept of sixty battleships? That is, there were 500 soldiers on each battleship, which was 30,000 troops.

There are not 10,000 people in the entire Ryukyu Kingdom, including any government officials and the like.

So with a pop, the shopkeeper knelt down.

"Master Dong, this ...... No, you, you're also from the Ryukyus...... You can't bring outsiders to ......."

"Okay, okay, don't give me any outsiders and insiders, whoever gives me food and money, I will do things for whomever I want. This time, Lord Barab gave me so much money, hurry up and send me the grain to the dock, otherwise I will have your good fruit to eat. Also, I tell you, the money owed to me is due, and pay it back to me! ”

"Let's go, go to the next one!"

After saying that, Dong Ye threw down a money bag, and actually stopped discussing with the shopkeeper, turned around and left.

The shopkeeper looked at the money bag that had fallen on his lap, opened it, and saw that the whole person was slumped on the ground.

"Shopkeeper, this ......" As soon as Shang Sixian spoke, the shopkeeper spoke: "I see that you are all from other places, right?" I'm sorry, I really can't sell this grain to you, and you don't want to compete with that Dong Ye, you really can't afford to provoke him! Hey, I can't live this day. ”

Or it was that Tang Ping's people were willing to buy his grain without bargaining at all just now, so he was grateful, so he persuaded these two sentences.

"This Dong Ye is so powerful? The government doesn't care? Shang Sixian asked.

"This guest officer, you have also heard, he is a subordinate of Lord Barab, and our Ryukyu Kingdom can't afford to provoke the death of Sri Buddha, what do you say the government should do? This Dong Ye buys and sells at a high price in our Tamsui port, not only buying our things at a low price, but sometimes asking us to buy the goods he brought from other places at a high price. ”

"What cargo? It's all rubbish! A guy said indignantly in the back.

"Hey, anyway, that's it, I can't keep this grain, so I'll sell it to him, and I don't plan to do this business anymore."

"Shopkeeper, you don't want to run, do you?" The guy was shocked: "Last time, the shopkeeper of the Ma family just didn't do business and wanted to run, but he was caught by Dong Ye, saying that he couldn't leave until he paid off the arrears, and sold his family to Nanyang." ”

"I've saved some money over the years, and I'll give you some as severance pay, and I'll give him the rest, even if I've worked for nothing for most of my life!"

The shopkeeper stood up from the ground tremblingly, and then said to the man, "Return the money of these guests." ”

"That's not going to work!" Tang Ping shook his head: "Although I don't like to force others, I have my own rules." ”

"The first is that I came first, and the second is that I have already paid the money, and you have already received it, so I will never have any reason to take the money back."

The implication is that he still has to buy this grain.

The shopkeeper's face turned pale: "Guest, why can't you understand?" We can't afford to provoke this Dong Ye, not to mention Lord Barabu, even he has two boats under his own command and thugs of four or five hundred people. If you really want to offend him, I'm afraid that this freshwater port won't be able to get out, let alone their sixty warships to the north! ”

"Don't worry, shopkeeper, he can't snatch what I want to buy, and as for the sixty warships in the north, he can't call them."

After finishing speaking, Tang Ping looked at Shang Sixian and asked, "If I clean him up, you won't blame me, right?" ”

Shang Sixian shook his head with a little blushing and said: "Our country is small and widowed, but I really don't know that there are such scum in the country, if Brother Tang is willing to help, Xian is grateful!"

He has only taken over the throne from his father not long ago, and he has not even straightened out the relationships above the court, where can he take care of a bully in a port here in Tamsui Port.

It was only after I met it today that I realized that someone can be so bad that he not only bullies and dominates the market, but also helps foreigners bully the people of their own country.

He held the Ryukyu Kingdom and was not the opponent of Sri Buddha, but what was the reason for holding on to the thigh of the big brother in the Central Plains for so many years? Isn't it just to get their support at such a time?

What's more, this is Tang Ping's own willingness to make a move, so he has no reason to jump out and stop it.

As for why Tang Ping made a move, in addition to the reason he said and the fact that the fleet really needed supplies, it was also because he regarded the Ryukyu Kingdom as his own.

What is this called Dong Ye, what does it mean to help outsiders show off their power in their own place?

"Qian Laosan, Luo Laosi!"

"Childe, the subordinates are here!"

went ashore in order to hide their identities, everyone called Tang Ping Gongzi.

"Do you remember the old business?"

"Of course I don't remember!" Fourth Master Luo stiffened his neck, and said confidently: "Our brothers are listening...... Listening to Childe, now I am helping Childe and Childe's uncle do things seriously, and I don't remember those things in the past for a long time. ”

"Ahem!" Qian Laosan kicked this fool lightly: "Actually, Childe thinks we should remember, so naturally we remember." ”

"What do you mean?" Fourth Master Luo looked at the two: "Didn't the son say it?" Forget all about the past in the future, start from the beginning, how can you ...... the third child?"

Tang Ping's face was black, this guy was so solid-eyed, how did he become a pirate leader for so many years?

Looking at Tang Ping's appearance, Luo Laosi also felt that he had said the wrong thing, and muttered, "Then should I remember?" ”

Qian Laosan could only pull him and say to Tang Ping: "What does Childe want us to do?" ”

"Well...... Tang Ping thought for a while and said, "Let's bring people first and understand the specific situation." ”

Just now, Dong Ye ran the train with his mouth full, who knows which sentence is true and which sentence is false? After all, even Tang Ping's East China Sea Fleet he dared to say that it was their own ship.

This kind of person doesn't let him suffer a little, I'm afraid he won't be honest.

"My subordinates understand." Qian Laosan hugged his fists, and then pulled Luo Siye out, it was simple to pretend to be a pirate and take people captive, but this was the first task Tang Ping had given since the two became the commander-in-chief of the East China Sea Fleet.

"Third child, tell me, what's wrong with Childe? Didn't we start to tell us not to go back to our old ways? Why are you ...... today?"

"Fourth, are you stupid? Look at the special forces who followed Childe, Childe asked them to do things like stealing chickens and touching dogs, didn't they do the same? We're just going to do the same work now, but our identity is still the East China Sea Fleet under Childe, understand? ”

Fourth Master Luo nodded as if he didn't understand, then rubbed his hands excitedly, and whispered: "Actually, there are really many brothers who miss their previous lives, and now I will call them, can I make them happy?" ”

The nature of the country is easy to change, these people have been pirates for more than ten years, where can they be changed in a day or two?

It's just that now Tang Ping is high in force, secondly, he gives more, and thirdly, he is disciplined and strict, so they can be more restrained.

"Fourth, you have to make it clear when you go back to your side, this kind of thing, Ping Guogong can only do it, Ping Guogong doesn't let him do it, and if you do it, you will lose your head."

Luo Siye touched his neck, and he felt a chill down his spine, he didn't forget the huge waves caused by the artillery at that time.

"I understand this, but you say...... Are there many opportunities like this? ”

Qian Laosan thought for a while and said, "Hmm...... I think it's indispensable. ”

The two of them returned to their respective flagships in small boats, and as soon as they talked about it, the younger brothers below who were already Datang Navy soldiers were really all gearing up and rushing to go.

"The other party only has two boats, and I told the third child that one person will go out of ten big boats, and a total of twenty will be enough. Or ...... Let's draw lots! ”

The news spread, and the East China Sea Fleet was happily preparing to participate in the lottery, but the Taihao fleet was a little sour.

After coming out for so long, there were two naval battles, once against these guys, and once when they sank a warship from East Vietnam, they were also idle.

"Hahaha, don't be envious of the brothers of the Taihao fleet, you are powerful at sea cannons, but when you are pirates, you have to look at us!"
