Chapter 178: Interception
Li Jinbo's original name was Li Gousheng, his ancestral home was Datong, Shanxi, and his father was a bankrupt farmer.
In fact, bankruptcy may be a bit of a gold paste on the face, a total of four acres and three points of land, in order not to pay taxes to a person in the same village, the result is planted and the land is gone.
Li Gousheng was born smart and clever when he was a child, and was said by Mr. Enlightenment to be a champion embryo in the future. also gave him a new name called Li Jinbo, which means that it is as turbulent as a strong wave. Li Jinbo's father is an authentic farmer, and he doesn't know a few big characters, but he remembers Mr. Enlightenment's words. Even when it was the most difficult time at home, he did not give up supporting Li Jinbo to study, and a few acres of land at home were also built.
I don't know if Mr. Enlightenment looked away, or if Li Jinbo's eyes were not that material. I took the test twice in a row, but I didn't even get the name of a child. Li Jinbo saw that this road was impassable, so he was about to give up.
But his father, who had always been weak, was surprisingly tough and resolutely disagreed with him to give up his studies. Because in his opinion, only by becoming a master can he become the leader.
Li Jinbo quarreled with his father for this, left his hometown with his bags, and went all the way to the east, almost all the way to the capital. But he had only heard the legends of the capital, but he never thought that even a begging place in the capital was occupied by a fixed number of people.
Just when he was so hungry that he was about to despair, life ushered in the dawn. He was given the opportunity to write letters on his behalf. Write a letter to a ruffian and get paid for a steamed bun.
Downcast, he knelt on the ground with a pen and wrote on the bluestone steps, and was seen by the ruffian's boss. was dragged to a private casino to work as a bookkeeper. Eat and live, five coins and silver.
There is very little money and not good food, but at least you can survive.
The ruffian and the boss of the ruffian became the nobleman in his life, and the second nobleman was a frequent visitor to the casino, named Xu Yingyuan. Xu Yingyuan would come to the casino every once in a while to gamble money, and every time he came drunk. Li Jinbo was very impressed by him, and he went back and forth, and slowly became acquainted.
Xu Yingyuan is very generous, and if he wins, he will throw two taels of silver to him as a reward. is always bragging in front of him, saying that he is the eunuch of the palace and the best friend of the factory.
Li Jinbo naturally didn't believe it, what eunuchs from the palace would go to this small place to gamble. Sure enough, Li Jinbo didn't see him again for a long time. Slowly forgot about him, but a little lamented that he was missing some extra money.
One day later, when Li Jinbo was taking inventory, Xu Yingyuan found him.
Come with me, let you be the shopkeeper!
Li Jinbo looked at him for a long time, and the ghost said a word, okay.
Thus began a new chapter in his fantastic life journey.
It turned out that he was really King Xin's personal eunuch. Now that King Xin is the emperor, he has become the emperor's personal eunuch again.
Li Jinbo became the shopkeeper of Global Premium, and then Global Bank. In the end, he became the shopkeeper of this global trade.
Oh, in Xu Yingyuan's words, he is the general manager.
When he arrived in Nanjing, Li Jinbo knew how heavy the three words general manager were. first contacted Zheng Zhilong, and then Liu Xiang. The plate of global commerce is getting bigger and bigger, and the people who are offended are getting bigger and bigger.
Many people's big list is to mention it and make his liver tremble.
But Xu Yingyuan only has one sentence, you just need to do what I asked you to do, and this Ming doesn't need to be afraid of anyone.
He is not stupid, so he can naturally guess who he is doing things for.
He is destined to miss the title of champion in his life, but he has the title of Jinyi Wei Zhenfu.
Li Jinbo is very serious in his work, and being the general manager of Global Commerce for two years has not made him swell, but has become more and more cautious. Everywhere you go, there will always be no less than ten guards to follow, both openly and secretly.
Tonight too.
The residence in the factory has not yet been built, and it is about two or three miles from the factory to the residence of Global Commerce, and he accompanied Xu Zhan and Ji Cai, who were debugging the machine, until they were close to the child, and then they took a sedan chair to the residence.
Li Jinbo sat in a sedan chair and thought about the construction of the factory.
According to the current progress, the factory will be completely completed in half a month, and then the machine can start production. This cement is a really good thing, and it is very strong when it sets. In a few days, we will start recruiting workers. The salary should be set a little higher, otherwise I am afraid it will be difficult to recruit.
While thinking about it, the sedan chair stopped.
"Shopkeeper, there is a situation." It was his subordinate Xiaoqi Leng Zigang who spoke.
"How many?"
"At least twenty."
"Leave a living mouth."
"Yes!"
In the past two years, there have been many temptations in the open and in the dark, but this is really the first time that the blatant interception is really the first time.
Twelve brocade guards gathered in front of the sedan chair and watched the black-clothed man come out of the woods.
Twenty-one, twenty-two, twenty-three...
A total of twenty-eight black-clothed men rushed up with knives in a muffled voice, and judging from their vigorous steps, all of them were good hands.
The brocade guards on the periphery of the sedan chair remained motionless, and only waited until the person rushed more than a dozen steps away before he began to move. He pulled out a short-barreled musket from his bosom and pulled the trigger at the rushing crowd.
Then, without looking at the results of the battle, he pulled his musket away from his waist, drew his sword and rushed towards the enemy. It was too dark, and the opponent was so numerous that he couldn't afford to reload the second bullet. Just charge directly.
This group of black-clothed people who assassinated Li Jinbo didn't expect that before the fight started, the other party came up and took out a musket.
Damn it!
Firearms are prohibited! Possession of firearms is a matter of imprisonment! You guys broke the law, you know!?
Because of their proximity and defenselessness, the group of black-clothed people were killed by seven or eight as soon as they saw them, and the rest of them were a little hairy in their hearts. looked at the brocade guard who came up with a knife, and was stunned. With this stunned effort, the balance of victory that originally belonged to them was tilted, and five or six more were cut down in an instant.
They are good hands, and Jinyiwei is not a vegetable.
Jin Yiwei's preemptive operation caught them off guard.
A merchant's escort with firearms!? What a situation!
At this moment, the advantage in the number of black-clothed people was no longer obvious, and there were only three more people standing than Jinyi Wei. But he didn't retreat at all, and rushed frantically towards the sedan chair where Li Jinbo was, with obvious intentions, that is, to kill Li Jinbo in the sedan chair at all costs.
But the duty of the Jinyi Guard is to defend Li Jinbo's thoughtfulness to the death, how could they easily break into the sedan chair.
Just as the two sides were at a stalemate, a gunshot rang out from the sedan chair. A man in black answered the end.
Damn! Sneak attack!
Li Jinbo's musket sneak attack aroused the ferocity of the man in black, and the impact became even more intense.
Li Jinbo in the sedan chair put down the curtain, took out lead bullets from his arms, filled the medicine tremblingly, and loaded the bullets.
Again he lifted the curtain and stretched out the musket.
After a long time, he saw an opportunity, screamed, and squatted.
Jinyiwei, who was fighting with the man in black, squatted down when he heard this, and Li Jinbo pulled the trigger.
"Bang!"
Another man in black fell.
The rest of the black-clothed people are angry, shameless!
With two experiences, Li Jinbo's hands didn't just shake badly. After reloading again, the curtain was lifted, this time on the other side.
"Squat!"
"Bang!"
Another man in black has fallen.
I have to say that this group of people in black is very literate, and they are all angry like this and don't say a word. Just attacking with a stuffy head. Jin Yiwei also fell two under great pressure.
"Squat."
Huh?
This time, whether it was the brocade guard or the man in black, they all squatted down.
Into your mother, are we stupid?
Li Jinbo's egg hurts, what's the deal.
But these people have been with him for so long, so there is naturally some tacit understanding.
Leng Zigang, who was closest to the sedan chair, began to pretend to be invincible and retreated towards the sedan chair. The man in black naturally did not miss this opportunity to get close to the sedan chair, and did not hesitate to follow.
As soon as the man in black stepped forward, Leng Zigang immediately squatted down, and Li Jinbo, who was aiming at it with a musket, fired without hesitation, hitting the man in black in the chest.
He sneaked up on me, I was careless, and I didn't dodge.
That was the last thought of the man in black. was immediately killed by this laughing Leng Zigang.
Now the people in black didn't dare to rush to the sedan chair alone.
The people inside are just too shameless.
The man in black has lost his spirit, and the number of people is no longer superior, so he knows that he can no longer complete the task. tacitly fought and retreated, and gradually got out of the battlefield.
Jin Yiwei was worried about fraud and did not dare to chase again. I watched them escape into the woods by the side of the road and disappear without a trace.
After it was completely confirmed that the enemy had gone away, Leng Zigang led people to clean up the battlefield, and then came to the front of the sedan chair, and said softly:
"Shopkeeper, the enemy has retreated."
"Is there a living mouth?" Li Jinbo quietly took a deep breath and asked in a calm tone.
"No, the wounded are poisoned. And there is nothing identifying on the body. ”
"How's the wounded brother?"
"There is no fear for my life for the time being."
"Let's go back first."
"Yes."
I'm just a businessman, sending so many people to kill me, as for it?
