Lord of the House

Vol 3 Chapter 40: East Sea Fox

"I'm here..." Qin Chengzu walked out of the gatehouse and stood under the lanterns hanging on the porch, looking at Lin Fu. Qian Xiaowu, Zhao Mengxiong and others all sent Wu Qixian to send envoys to other places. There were no outsiders in the front yard, and they accumulated in the afternoon. A thin layer of snow, nothing.

Compared to when he was in Qingjiangpu in the autumn, Qin Chengzu lived at sea for several months, his skin was a little darker, his thin face was cut with a few dry cracks by the cold wind, and his appearance looked a little old. With a bright expression and bright eyes under the lamp, he was dressed in a silk shirt and dressed as a businessman.

"It's great that Mr. Qin can come." Lin Fu was also very happy that Qin Chengzu could come in person. Zhou Pu and Wu Qi both have their own expertise, and it is definitely better for them to steal chickens, kill dogs and set fires than others, but when it comes to the layout of the situation, they are not as good as Qin Chengzu. Shanmou, Lin Fu hopes to discuss some things with Qin Chengzu, came over and asked with concern, "Have you encountered any trouble entering the city?"

"This year, the wave of refugees is earlier than in previous years. Besides, Jiangning has always been a prosperous one, so it's not a problem for us to enter the city with a denture card..." In addition to the person Wu Qi sent to contact, Qin Chengzu sneaked along with a subordinate and disguised himself after reaching the boundary of Jiangning. Cheng Merchant entered the city, he said, "The waterway from Chongzhou to Jiangning, I have to walk for a while before I can rest assured..."

"Well, I can't get away, otherwise I'll go again..." After Qiu Mu left Qingjiangpu, Lin Fu and Zhou Pu first sent Su Mei, Siniangzi, and Xiaoman back to Jiangning. They went from Jiangning to Jiangning along the waterway. After walking back and forth in Chongzhou, Lin Fu invited Qin Chengzu and others to go to the wing of the main courtyard, and said while walking, "Mr. Fu, Zi'ang, Qiao Guan, Qiao Zhong, are they okay on the island?"

"It's all good, the hard work is hard work, and the rest is safe, otherwise I wouldn't dare to leave the island easily," Qin Chengzu said of the situation on Changshan Island, "In winter, some pirates invaded Chongzhou and Hailing from the mouth of the Yangtze River. Changshan Island is not on its route, and there is no conflict. However, after we went to the island, pirate ships kept approaching and coveting the island. After discussing with Ziang and Qinghe, I felt that I could not stand up and fight. Early last month Lure a group of pirates on the island into the jungle, and drive away the two pirate ships that were approaching Changshan Island in the middle of the day, and it was much quieter after that..."

Qin Chengzu said it was easy, but Lin Fu could imagine their hardships and dangers.

Qin Chengzu's lineup had only 40 or 50 elite soldiers left, but there were 300 or 400 old, weak, women and children. To gain a foothold on Changshan Island, in addition to the hardships of surviving on the island, they also had to show their fangs to dispel others. The coveting and greed of pirate forces. In the East China Sea, where the weak eats the strong, no one will be extra polite to Changshan Island because it is friendly to Changshan Island. It is precisely because other pirate forces know that if they want to swallow Changshan Island, they will pay a **** price.

"Lin Fu is waiting in Jiangning to hear that Mr. Qin and Zi'ang will regain their prestige in the East China Sea..." Lin Fu said with a smile.

"But the name we released in the East China Sea is Donghai Fox Tan Zong..." Qin Chengzu squinted at Lin Fu.

Lin Fu was stunned for a moment, then laughed again, and said, "Mr. Qin is really good at scheming, what is true is false, and what is false is true, to establish a foothold on Changshan Island, it is necessary not only to stand up, but also to contact the East Pirates, why? Can you easily see the details for others? The pseudonym I randomly remembered will be lent to Mr. Qin for your use. In this way, I can't let the reputation of Donghaihu fall!" Lin Bie knew very well that Qin Chengzu was a gangster. It has always been an independent force with strong cohesion. It will not easily rely on others, and it is even more impossible to pin its future hopes on him, who has no power. The reason why he used his alias to establish a name on Changshan Island, maybe There is a reason why he is grateful to him for doing his best for them during this period of time. The more important reason is that Qin Chengzu confuses other East pirates in the old suspicious formation on Changshan Island, and then asks with a smile, "But why does the bandit use 'East Sea Fox'?"

Qin Chengzu laughed and said with a smile, "This is what Qinghe came up with. If you are not satisfied with anything, go to him in the future." Lin Fu's reaction satisfied him, although Lin Fu is very worthy of appreciation and worthwhile. Trust, but now is not the time to think too much.

At this moment, Liu Yue'er brought tea to the main room. She had just heard from Qian Xiaowu that there were guests from other places. When she saw Lin Fu coming back, she brought tea and watched Qin Chengzu and Lin Fu. Sitting on the case, Zhou Pu, Wu Qi, Zhao Hu, Chen Enze, Lin Jing, etc. were all standing by the side, and they knew that the guests were extraordinary, because she Feihu and Zhao Shuhan and others came to the door before, but she did not ask Zhou Pu. , Wu Qi sees such respect for people in his eyes.

Liu Yue'er never imagined that the guest who came here today turned out to be a horse thief chief, but now he has changed his career to be a pirate chief. He put the tea on the table, bowed to Qin Chengzu, asked Lin Fu and said, "When the guest came, the house had already used After dinner, I have prepared some wine and dishes..."

"Okay, Mr. Qin and I will be there in a while, thank you for your hard work." Lin Fu said, looking at Liu Yue'er's charming face under the lamp, and remembering what Gu Wuchen said before leaving Gu's house.

Men like beautiful women, and there's nothing to hide, but Lin Fu knew in his heart what was the intention of Liang Zuoren, the magistrate of Shiliang County, to give Liu Yue'er to the Gu family as a cook. He had no other idea to keep Liu Yue'er in the house. When I said a word to Gu Wuchen tonight, I felt a little strange when I looked at Liu Yueer again, and I thought to myself: The so-called heart defense is nothing more than that. When he was distracted for a while, Su Mei's charming and charming face flashed in his mind again. Lin Fu raised his head and asked Wu Qi, "Mr. Qin came over, did you tell Si Niangzi?"

"I'm not in Baiyuan, I'll see later..." Wu Qi said.

Liu Yue'er stood there holding the tray, panting slightly, a feeling gripped her tender heart tightly: Young Master Lin didn't avoid himself when he talked with the guests about secrets! She lowered her head, slightly suppressing the excitement in her heart.

Qin Chengzu nodded slightly to Liu Yueer, and then glanced at her to see her exit. After he came over, Wu Qi told him what was going on in the house, but he didn't mind Lin Fu talking about things without avoiding it at all. woman. In this era, it is precisely this kind of charming and beautiful woman who is the easiest to control, as long as she is strict with her mouth. Unlike ambitious men who would sell out their masters for rewards and silver for fame and wealth, these women can only rely on a certain man for their glory, wealth and security. Once Lin Tie falls in Jiangning, such a beautiful Liu Yueer, It will only attract other people to scramble first, how can fate be better?

When the food and drinks were ready, Lin Fu invited Qin Chengzu and the two subordinates who came with him to eat, and Zhou Pu, Wu Qi, Lin Jing and others sat down to accompany him. After the meal, Lin Fu and Qin Chengzu returned to the wing and talked about the arrangement of using the Jiyun Stack as a cover to deliver supplies to Changshan Island.

"From Jiangning to Chongzhou, the waterway twists and turns for nearly 400 miles, and is under the jurisdiction of Jiangning, Weiyang, Hailing, and Pingjiang. The water camp belongs to, except that the Dongting Lake bandits in the upper reaches and the East pirates outside the river mouth will enter from time to time, although this section of the river has not been entrenched by powerful water bandits for a long time, but occasionally local village tyrants will come in to fish in the muddy waters, the situation is quite It's complicated. To be honest, in this situation, it's better to let a family of officers and soldiers or Jiang bandits occupy this section of the river. Anyway, it is better to pay for the road, so it's better to just hand it over to one family..."

These days, the powerful Jiang bandits occupying the same place have replaced the role of the government to a certain extent. As long as the merchant ships have passed the buying route, they can generally ensure the smooth transit of the merchant ships. Even if the Eastern pirates rob merchant ships within their respective spheres of influence According to the rules, they are very aware of the disadvantages of fishing when the pond is dry. Only the water bandits who occasionally come to forage for food will kill people with extreme viciousness. Speaking of robbers, for thousands of years, hasn't the government been doing what robbers do? Just put on a veil of tenderness.

Lin Bie put a simple map of Jiangdong County on the bookcase, and explained to Qin Chengzu the situation of Jiangning to Chongzhou Yangtze River section. Barely explain the meaning.

Qin Chengzu and the others have just settled on Changshan Island and have little contact with the outside world; Lin Fu, as a disciple of the deputy envoy Gu Wuchen, is also a famous person and has the qualifications to read ordinary Tang newspapers. The situation is far more convenient and detailed than Qin Chengzu and the others.

"Fortunately, Linji Depot is also taking this waterway. What needs to be managed along the way, and which joints need to be bribed, generally there will be no mistakes," Lin Fu said, "In addition, Jiyun Club takes commercial posts from Moling County; The matter has also been settled, Jiyun Club falsely reported 20,000 taels of capital, and Xu Xiangdao hired 40 people with knives to act as military guards..."

Business posts are similar in nature to the business licenses of the millennium later. Businesses and trading companies can legally market or sell commercial products only after they have obtained the business posts. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com

The military guards hired by Xiang Escort just hang their names on the banner of the dart shop. They are actually private soldiers owned by the company and the trading company. They are semi-legalized private soldiers. It is necessary to really hire a **** from the **** company, but the rules will not always be strictly followed. Qingfenghang, headed by Du Rong, had about 200 guards with swords and martial arts. Lin Fu estimated that there were about 200 guards on Qingfenghang Jiangning's main ship. It is definitely an elite force that cannot be underestimated.

Many matters of the company are under the jurisdiction of the Xuanfu Envoy and the Fuxian Yamen, and the single **** is under the jurisdiction of the Inspector. Monitoring and restricting local military equipment is an important responsibility of the Inspector.

Lin Fu talked to Qin Chengzu about the construction of a warehouse at the mouth of Jinchuan River. Qin Chengzu took a deep breath and said, "The position of the prison officer in Jiangdao Prison is really suitable..." I thought that Lin Fu's arrangement was really appropriate, and the rest The thing is how to insert the human hand without revealing any flaws.

Lin Fu smiled. At this time, Wu Qi, who had just sneaked to Baiyuan to find the fourth lady, came back and said, "The fourth lady and the others have returned to Baiyuan, and Miss Su Mei said that she would also meet her old friend..."

Lin Fu thought for a while, and said to Zhao Hu, "Take my famous post and go directly to Baiyuan, we will go to Baiyuan tomorrow..." The servants and guardians of Baiyuan were both sent by the vassal family, and they went to the garden alone. If it is a big deal, fleeing immediately will only be regarded as a thief on the beam. It is easy to be broken when people go too many. Next, he arranged Qin Chengzu to have a good rest in the wing room, and let Zhou Pu and Wu Qi reminisce about the old times with Qin Chengzu, and he went back to the room to rest first.
