Chongzhen Chat Group

Since He Qiaoyuan had already made a promise to Sun Chuanting, he would naturally not break his promise. As for Kang Chengzu, he was not his son, but just one of his thousands of students. Since I agreed with that suggestion, there is no problem with practicing it personally.

Therefore, Kang Chengzu finally returned disappointed.

On an island off the coast of Fujian, there are boats of many sizes parked in a sheltered harbor. On the pier, there were groups of men with weapons on patrol. However, these people obviously didn't have much thought about patrolling. They seemed more like taking a walk, and some even simply found a place sheltered from the wind to chat.

"I heard that the government is coming to recruit us. We should be able to spend the New Year on the shore!" A short man in his thirties, the sea breeze made his thin clothes rustle. But he said with a hint of longing on his face.

"Yes, Zheng Yiguan's people are doing well on the shore, and they are very impressive back home!" The scar-faced man next to him nodded in agreement, and then said to the short man just now, "Ma Sange, You haven’t seen your mother-in-law and son for almost a year, right?"

Ma San nodded and replied: "Yes, I just went back secretly once more than half a year ago. It would be best if I don't have to be so sneaky again in the future!"

"Don't be too happy, our boss hasn't agreed yet!" A young man who seemed to be less than twenty years old heard their conversation, interrupted, and poured cold water on them.

"Needless to say, he will definitely agree. Yesterday, the people the government sent to contact were all shouting. This time, the government is sincerely recruiting people. They haven't even negotiated the conditions. It is said that they will send a few The high officials have come over. Our Fujian Dao political officers and generals are all high officials! Think about it, if they were not sincere, how could these high officials come over? Aren’t we afraid that the boss would be angry and put them to death? Kill it!" Scarface patted the young man on the shoulder with some disdain and gave him some advice.

Ma San also nodded in agreement: "Unless our leader is determined to spend his whole life at sea, being recruited by the imperial court is the best way out!"

Having said this, he paused, looked at the brothers around him, and then lowered his voice and said, "Even if you don't want to recruit people, you still have to consider these brothers, right? Since the government After showing such a sincere gesture, if the boss directly refuses, then the future of the brothers below will be at stake. It is impossible for everyone to be willing to live like this for the rest of their lives at sea, right?"

The young man stopped talking after hearing this because he could not refute. Although he is young, he still knows at least one thing. If he is not forced to do anything, no one would want to be a pirate who lives on a knife's edge. Everyone wants to go to the shore, whether they have a wife and children, a farmland or a fishing boat. Those days are serious days! If you are a lifelong pirate, sooner or later you will have to throw yourself into the sea to feed the fishes.

Thinking so, his heart became hot. In the past six months, the big boss has become more and more powerful, and has snatched more and more things. At least everyone has accumulated a little bit, and should be able to go to the shore to marry a wife, right?

In fact, they were not the only ones. The news shouted by the government messenger yesterday was really surprising. It was as if the news had grown wings and flew all over the island in one go. The other pirates also heard the news and had the same idea as them. Now every corner of the island, as long as there are idle pirates, are discussing this great event.

However, Xu Xiang had completely different ideas from them on this matter. When he heard the situation reported by his confidants, he couldn't help but roar loudly: "A bunch of short-sighted people can't live as comfortably on the shore as on the sea. This is a huge way to make money! I am now more than twice as strong as before. Today's sea , I am the best in the world! Even if Zheng Yiguan comes back, I dare to tell his ship not to dare to go out to sea! "

In fact, Xu Xiang fell in love with this business without capital from the very beginning when he became a pirate and grabbed the first bow ship. What are the benefits of being an official? Not only do you have to give your boss a smile, but you also have to show all kinds of filial piety, unlike now where you can have as much gold, silver, jewelry and women as you want! Among the daughters of wealthy families on the shore, I don't know how many of them I have replaced, those who usually would not even look at me. Just do whatever you want her to do, she's just so good! There is no other reason than that he is the lawless overlord of the sea!

If the subordinate who worked for him hadn't been caught by Sun Chuanting, he wouldn't have bothered to pay attention to the government. According to his own temper, he would have just robbed his mother. When the imperial court imposes a sea ban, there will be more ships on the sea, and there will be more gold, silver, jewelry and women. How could such a good thing be given up? Let's just give it a try first, and then we can teach the government a lesson once we rescue those men so that they don't lose their heart in working for themselves!

While he was thinking about it, suddenly one of his subordinates walked in quickly and reported with a slightly mysterious look: "Master, someone is coming ashore!"

This refers specifically to people who came ashore. Liu Xiang naturally knew who sent him, so he immediately asked someone to secretly bring him over to meet him. After a while, I heard his roar: "You are such a dog official, how dare you lie to me! Are you really not afraid of death?"

After finishing his rant, Xu Xiang seemed to have vented his anger and calmed down his temper a little, but his face was still a bit ferocious. He said to the person who came on the shore: "Go back and report to your master, so that he can rest assured, even if the government really wants to I won’t agree to the recruitment and give up this way of making money in vain!”

At this point, he said with a bit of hatred: "If he could fish out those confidants of me, I wouldn't even bother to negotiate with them, and this matter wouldn't have happened at all! In the end, he still didn't care, and he had to ask me personally Go into battle!”

"Master, please calm down!" The man who came up from the bank, covered with robes, replied in a low voice, "It's not because my master didn't try his best. It's actually because those few people are locked up in the governor's office, and the guards are all brought by Sun Chuanting from the north. Come here. That Liu Daneng is his henchman and he has nowhere to start!"

Xu Xiang was a little impatient, so she finally waited for him to finish, then waved her hand and said: "Okay, okay, I know, you can go, I will not give up his commission. If you need anything, remember to report it as soon as possible!"

The man agreed and left quietly again. In the house, Xu Xiang was heard throwing something with a "pop" sound, and then said viciously: "You dare to lie to me, you are so damn tired of living!"

He seemed to have nowhere to vent his anger, so he asked his men to bring him a woman.

But before he could finish his fun, one of his men broke in and reported: "Master, the government officials are here!"

The condition is not good, I may not have it tonight.
