Chapter 32: The Team
The Maritime Safety Bureau drove the Japanese slave girls off the ship because the slave girls belonged to the smuggling of 5 trading houses, and now Song Yingxing is going to get on the ship, in addition to him, the accompanying Jinyi Wei will also follow to take the treasure boat.
The cabins that once belonged to the captain and the captain can be lived by Song Yingxing and Yang Changbai, while Jinyiwei is naturally the sailor's cabin for the crew. The crew could only go aggrieved to squeeze with the people, but the warehouse for the people's husband was so big, and these supernumerary female slaves naturally stayed in the ghost town.
The cabin of the female slave girl is no better than the cabin where the husband lives, and it belongs to the lowest cabin, and there is no porthole. After closing the door, I don't say that I can't see my fingers, but if you want to see clearly, you can only rely on candles to illuminate, and the candles can't be lit too much, otherwise there will be not enough oxygen.
Naturally, no one wanted to live in such cabins, and the people preferred to huddle together rather than go down to the bottom cabin.
After sending off the slave girl yesterday, Liu Yifeng stared at the handcuffs and thought for two quarters of an hour, and finally decided to take the risk of leaving these handcuffs, so he decided to take the initiative to move in.
It is unclear what the Ming colonies in North America have developed, and it is not known whether they have clashed with the local Indians. He thought about it and finally decided to leave these handcuffs as the foundation of his life in Dongshan Prefecture.
But he alone can't take these handcuffs with him.
Each of these handcuffs is about 40 centimeters long, and the overall shape is very similar to that of later boomerangs, with the thickest part of the reed flint being nearly 10 centimeters thick. When he was the only one in the cabin, he experimented, and the limit of a person is to hide two handfuls and 8 jars on his body, and it would be unnatural to have more of them.
Either way, he couldn't take these firecrackers off the ship alone, and he needed accomplices.
The first thing that can be trusted is naturally Ao Bai and Ni Kantu, who have already recognized him as their master. Although he never declared that he was the master of the two, Liu Yifeng did not stop the two of them from taking the initiative to be slaves, and everyone acquiesced in their master-slave relationship. In the past two months on the ship, even Liu Yifeng has gradually become accustomed to having these two minions.
Then the person who can be trusted is Feng Shuo.
Feng Shuo is actually a very simple person, without too much ambition and not too many ambitions. As a Datong person, his parents both died in the early Tatar revenge of the Northern Expedition of the Ming Dynasty. He grew up eating 100 family meals, and later followed the horse dealers in Monan.
This person's biggest flaw is that he is good at gambling, but because he has no ambitions, as long as he agrees with someone, he is still very righteous. The current Minfu team Liu Yifeng can manage it well, but in fact, Feng Shuo has secretly made a lot of efforts.
Liu Yifeng also reciprocated the favor and silently cultivated him in the direction of his deputy, except for a few people who were also the leaders of the people's husbands who were dissatisfied with him, most of the people's husbands had already treated Feng Shuo as a deputy leader.
Feng Shuo is not like Liu Yifeng's instinctive disgust for the mature girl who overflows with servility, he has 12 Jianzhou slaves under his command, 7 of whom were once Yongdang firms, and 5 of whom were subdued on the ship.
These Jianzhou slaves ate well with Feng Shuo, and no one dared to bully them, they could even bully people occasionally, and they had long been loyal. And these Jianzhou slaves are very discerning, and they know very well that Feng Shuo is so prosperous, and half of the credit is with Liu Yifeng, and after seeing Liu Yifeng, he also calls him "master", not the "big boss" in other people's mouths.
For them, being able to call Liu Yifeng "master" is like a privilege that Liu Yifeng rewards them, and it's too late to be happy.
In this way, counting him Liu Yifeng himself, he has 16 people, and he can hide 32 handguns, but it is still not enough.
It's a pity that other Han people, Liu Yifeng can't believe it.
Don't look at every man on the ship now when he sees him, he is a respectful "big leader", but Liu Yifeng doesn't trust them at all.
These Han people are no better than Jianzhou slaves, they themselves are from the bottom of society, most of them are criminals, and everyone's mind is alive. Although they will not rebel against the Maritime Administration, they will definitely seize the opportunity to climb up within the rules set by the Maritime Administration.
These handcuffs are that opportunity.
As long as the other leaders of the people's husbands, or Li Laosan, these street slickers, knew that Liu Yifeng had hidden some of the contraband, it is estimated that they would immediately inform the crew of the ship, and then replace Liu Yifeng's position among the people's husbands.
Liu Yifeng didn't trust them, except for Li Hongji, the king of Chuang.
Li Hongji probably won't denounce Liu Yifeng, but Liu Yifeng feels that he may not come to wade into this troubled water. He would refuse to help Liu Yifeng hide the gun, but silently keep the secret when he didn't know.
Then among the remaining people, there are only the birth of Jurchen and Dongyi slave.
It's really hard to deal with having a girl.
Because the Han criminals would rather stay in the cells of the Ming Dynasty to grow mold than go to Dongshan Prefecture, the bitter cold land, every trading house bought some of the raw Jurchens to shave off their hair and pretend to be thieves, resulting in 78 of the more than 260 people.
When these raw girls were in the camp, they were all excluded, but they tacitly hugged together on the boat. Although Liu Yifeng can still control them, Liu Yifeng knows very well that he can manage the birth of a girl by relying on the rights of the Maritime Safety Bureau.
This kind of right to fight with people, once it is lost, these raw girls will not listen to him. And exposing Liu Yifeng's private possession of firearms can just uproot the rights he borrowed from the Maritime Safety Bureau, these raw girls are like those Han people, and they can't be trusted.
The only thing left to develop is Dongyinu.
Who is the lowest status person on the ship? It's really these slaves who have lost their country.
When the Ming Dynasty took over Goryeo, it was the most difficult time of the Northern Expedition, and the people of Goryeo were also struggling to make a living, and a large number of adult males were recruited to Monan to participate in the Northern Expedition. The first was to supplement the lack of labor, and the second was to completely exhaust the potential for resistance in Goryeo.
Most of the remaining men on the Goryeo Peninsula were cowardly, incompetent, and unrebellious people.
In the fleet of these Dongyi slaves every year, some people are bullied to death by the Han people's husbands, and the crew members of the same Han people and the people of the Maritime Safety Bureau will only punish those Han people's husbands. Unless the person who killed Dongyi Nu was a Jurchen, the crew and the people of the Maritime Safety Bureau would severely punish him, and it was normal for him to take his life for his life.
There are 64 Dongyi slaves on the ship, except for the 13 Dongyi slaves who belong to the Yongdang trading house, the rest of the Dongyi slaves basically have a daily routine of being bullied, eating, being bullied, eating, being bullied, and sleeping.
It's just that at Liu Yifeng's request, these Dongyi slaves can still guarantee that they will not be bullied to death, and they will not go hungry. It's just that the food is definitely the worst, and the bedding and everything that is distributed are also pressed into cakes with cotton.
The 13 Dongyi slaves of Yongdang Commercial Bank were much better, and their leader Jin Chengyou worked hard to gather them from the beginning of the ship, and then firmly rallied around Liu Yifeng.
Although Liu Yifeng never claimed his ownership of these 13 Dongyi slaves, and Feng Shuo often bullied them, at least people from other trading houses rarely provoked them. They never caused trouble, and silently followed behind Liu Yifeng.
So Liu Yifeng decided to live in the cabin of the former Japanese female slaves, his and Feng Shuo's Jianzhou slaves, and the 13 Dongyi slaves of Yongdang Commercial Bank.
These people are the first batch of members of Liu Yifeng's team.
