"Don't, the escort boat is stable. My fishing boat is not bad. I just don't have a machine gun. Tell me, I won't fish anymore." The people on the boat were curious and thought it was more important to get news than fish.
After talking to the person who fell from the hot air balloon, he shouted to others: "Disperse all, go fishing, catch more in each boat, take my share out, and I will tell you the news."
He was greeted with laughter and cursing, and the boats dispersed.
One of the escort ships approached, and the other still followed the group of fishing boats.
The people on the boat approaching were not in a hurry. There were a total of four people on the hot air balloon.
"Brother, drink some water. I have fresh water. You can wash your face again. My name is Chen and Chen Xihong. Everyone calls me Ahong." The owner of the small fishing boat who claimed to be Chen Xihong said while holding the water bag.
"Don't, keep it for you to drink, we're not so delicate, I... can't tell you your name, I am'Kongxun No. 576'." No. 576 hurriedly prevented the other party from taking water, pointing to the embroidery on his chest Numbers, said.
Chen Xihong still brought the water: "Drink some, the water is enough, you help us point out the fish schools, we save time, and the water will come out. Brother, you just said, who to look for?"
"There are many cannibal ships, the exact number is unknown." No. 576 took two sips of water and handed the water sac to the next person.
"What are we doing here with more cannibals? Aren't they beaten?" Chen Xihong was even more curious.
"Yes, I was beaten, so I wanted to come to the ship to arrest the Tang Dynasty people and threaten us."
Chen Xihong suddenly said: "No wonder the Datang escort ships have increased, and you have also appeared. Damn many cannibals. If you can't beat them, you will know to play conspiracies, bah!"
Chen Xihong, who showed disdain, said angrily: "They should be killed. Those who can't beat our soldiers will only count us fishermen. Five or seventy-six. You said they went to the Liuqiu area? Will they go? Daozi, more local tribal cooperation?"
"Absolutely not." Five-seven-six said confidently.
After speaking, he began to take off his clothes, soaked in the sea, the wind blew, the sun dried, and a layer of salt was on the top.
Soon he took off naked, took the underwear handed from the escort ship and put on it, shirtless watching the floating position of the hot air balloon.
Chen Xihong originally thought that the people flying in the sky were all thin skins and tender flesh. When he saw four people wearing only one underwear, he realized that the skin of the four people was red with a hint of black, and pink and turned white when pressed. The way.
The color of the skin must be often blown by the wind and sun. As for the pink and the white way when pressed, it is the trace left after the injury.
"You..." Chen Xihong looked at the scars on the four of them distressed, and said, "You have worked hard."
"It doesn't matter. You get it in training. Now when you get hurt, you get less and less. You can catch your fish with confidence. We have the ability and confidence to ensure that you are not hurt. But don't run too far on a single boat. It’s not cost-effective for a ship to follow it."
Five-seven-six comforted Chen Xihong.
Chen Xihong smiled: "I believe it, we all believe it. Years ago, we occasionally encountered Japanese boats, which were bigger than our small fishing boats. They went to various islands to grab things and fight with local tribesmen. They looked very good, and when we met our boat, we wouldn't let them, they had to go around.
Otherwise, unless he can kill all of our ships, our Datang gunboat will smash them, and we are not afraid, and sometimes deliberately block their way. "
Hearing it in May 7 and 61, he couldn't laugh or cry, and persuaded: "Don't always bully people. In fact, it won't work. We will follow up. If people are gone, of course we have to ask. As long as some people say that they have seen their boats appear, we will I will chase down to Japan and tortured all the crew members who went to sea within a few months to prove that they are not the murderer. Those who fail to prove it will be counted as the murderer."
"Is that so?" Chen Xihong really didn't know that his Datang would be so unreasonable. He recalled for a while and said, "No wonder they were afraid of us. It is estimated that we overturned the boat when our boat was close to them. More scared than us, right?"
"Yes, because we don't believe in this coincidence, it looks like a bully, but we can guarantee that you will not be bullied. The little son and the little lady only care about their own people." Wu Qiliu smiled.
Chen Xihong straightened his chest for a while and felt very proud. Unlike when he went to sea with his father when he was a child, he was always afraid of encountering a Japanese or Silla ship, and worried that he would lose out in the fight.
After being happy for a while, Chen Xihong suddenly reacted, looking at Wuqilu, and asked uncertainly: "You... Are you from the Zhang family? Little son, little lady, we are called Xiaobao and Juanjuan."
He patted his forehead five-seven-six-six, which was regarded as a tacit consent, and accidentally said that he left.
Chen Xihong was even more affectionate. He looked at the hot air balloon floating on the sea and said, "Should we help you drag the balloon back?"
"No more, you see where it can be used, cut it down and use it yourself. Weapons and equipment are all thrown into the sea. We will go back and get a new one. You must not go down and fish. It is not worth paying for your life."
Five or seventy-six worried that they would dive to help catch it. I reminded them that it’s tens of meters deep, and people have to go down hard. Besides, they have to float up with heavy weapons. One really died. Don’t say you will be punished if you go back. I can't make it through my own conscience.
Chen Xihong really had this plan before. If the things of the national army fell, he should help to catch them. After hearing the words of 576, he gave up, but he was still very interested in the things that the hot air balloon did not sink.
Padd the boat over there and said, "Okay, we divided it. You should replace it with a new one. If you use the old one, it will be dangerous. If you fall and die today, I don’t want to fish here in the future. I urge you to go to the island, discuss with the local tribe, and tell them not to collude with each other if you cannibalize."
576 nodded first, and then explained to Chen Xihong: "We have already negotiated the business with the people on Liuqiu Island. If many cannibals really come to the island, they will grab one, and we are willing to change with them. Glassware, glass plates, glass bowls, glass plates, a set of sixteen pieces."
Chen Xihong opened his mouth, held back his laugh, swallowed, and sighed: "Many cannibals and pray with their lord. Don't let them go to the island, let alone meet the locals in Liuqiu. Listen to the exchanges. , I am tempted."
Chen Xihong is no longer worried this time. The tribes of the original residents on Liuqiu Island are indeed much weaker than Datang in terms of force. Therefore, after Datang showed the power of gunboats, the chiefs in the tribe put away all kinds of Think carefully about taking advantage, and exchange with Datang normally.
However, the weapons of many cannibals seem to be the same as those of the tribe. If they meet, many cannibals will be beaten to death. A life is a set of glassware, which is valuable.
Thinking about it again, Chen Xihong laughed out loud himself, and said to Wuqiliu who was looking at the blankly: "Will many cannibals use the language of the Tang Dynasty to contact the chiefs of the tribe? Then they said they were willing to exchange things and cooperate between the two sides. In the end, they thought The stupid locals first agreed, tricked them back to the stockade, arrested them all, and said to them:'You are so stupid, come here and give us benefits in person. Haha, laughed at me."
People on the two boats all laughed, or if many cannibals actually got on the island, such a situation would happen, and most people thought that the people on the island were stupid.
They were really stupid before, and they always suffered a lot when exchanging goods, especially in the previous dynasties. In the past, the exchange wanted to take advantage of others, but when they didn't agree, they turned around and arrested many people and brought them back.
But this is not the case now. The original residents on Liuqiu Island have been taught to be smart. Yes, they are taught patiently by Datang merchants and personnel dispatched by the court.
"I couldn't figure it out before." Chen Xihong pointed to Liuqiu Island's direction: "Why didn't I take advantage of the strong force to directly occupy it. Later I learned that the terrain is complicated, the water and soil are not suitable, and the local residents did not come to kill us. It’s not cost-effective to consume too many resources to seize, right?"
"Yes, there is also the question of who is going to occupy even if it is defeated, the population of my Datang is not enough, otherwise the little son will not encourage everyone to have children." Wu Qili agreed.
"I don't understand why we need to teach them more knowledge." Chen Xihong asked.
"Because the other party bullies the other party without knowledge and takes advantage of the commodity exchange. When they know about it in the future, they will feel resentment. Since they don't want to destroy him, then we will integrate into him. This island is good, and we are still planning to build a new one. port.
In the past, people said that we had close friendship and attack, but Xiao Gongzi and Xiao Niangzi divided the areas around my Datang, part of it was fusion, part of economic attack, and it was absolute military aggression against distant places, oh, it was support. "
Wu Qilu told Chen Xihong about Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan's plans in detail.
Chen Xihong listened and laughed: "Haha, aggression is aggression, and we are not opposed to it. My family is still arguing. Just hit him against other countries. People in the bullied country will hate Xiaobao and the cuckoo, but I Longevity tablets have been standing for them all the time.
Sometimes when I go to the grave, I even tell my ancestors that if someone killed by Xiaobao and the cuckoo turns into a ghost to come over, let the ancestors help to kill, I have more people and more ghosts. Not afraid of foreign ghosts. "
Several other people on the fishing boat also nodded sharply, and one of them agreed: "I have nothing to do with the death of people from other countries. I know that Xiaobao and the cuckoo make my life more comfortable. Whoever dares to add obstacles to them, I will let them. pain."
"It's okay, now people eat more food, and I didn't see you help in the past. It was nice." Chen Xihong despised the speaker.
"I... How can I help? I didn't let anyone beat me in the past. Don't tell me, what did you do for me?" This person was originally blushed by the sea breeze, and looked even more red.
"You're a helper, dare to shout to me? Who said I didn't help? I donated half of the fish that I went to sea last time with Dae. What have you done?" Chen Xihong asked confidently.
This person was speechless for a while.
On the 5th, 7th and 6th, he asked, "Who did you donate to? The little son and the little lady didn’t mention the donation. Our money is enough. And the two of them also said that it’s not a life-and-death battle, and the people don’t need money. It’s true. If one day calls on everyone in the entire Datang to contribute money and effort, it would be a battle for national destiny. If you lose, you will perish the country.
If you want to donate, you can donate to other areas, and it is not mandatory. You should consider your life first, and then you will be given a certain tax exemption. "
"Ah? No? I, I donated it to the government in Fuzhou, and the fish I sent directly." Chen Xihong began to worry about his own things.
Five-seven-seven glanced at the people on the escort boat, and someone immediately started sending a report asking where the fish donated by Chen Xihong had gone.
The people on the two boats calmed down for a while. Chen Xihong approached the hot air balloon and began to cut the tarpaulin on it with a knife. The hanging basket was also lifted up and placed on the boat. It was really empty inside, and things fell into the sea.
I have been waiting for almost half an hour before I get a call back.
Received the translated content on No. 576, he said to Chen Xihong, “They admitted to accepting your fish. The grandson of Wang Hao, the governor of Fuzhou Prefecture, had eaten forty-three pieces, one piece per table, and it was braised. The rest, made into dried fish, has been sent to the Baby Candy House, and the Baby Candy House has confirmed that the quantity is correct. Now Wang Haozhi has sent a telegram to Beijing, what do you say?"
Chen Xihong was stunned. It sounded complicated. The fish he donated was used for war, but he didn't expect to be eaten a little bit, and then given to another place, feeling very sad.
"Brother Chen, the Baby Candy House belongs to Beckham." The boatman who had spoken before touched Chen Xihong and reminded him.
"Yeah, it's under the care of Xiaoyuan and Xiaoyuan. What else do you say? Just send it. If the little ancestors can eat the fish I sent, I will be even more happy."
Chen Xihong just remembered why the Baby Candy House was so familiar.
"Are there forty-three more to be eaten?" asked five or seven.
"Forty-three were eaten? Just eat it, what else can I do?" Chen Xihong thought that there were not many forty-three, and didn't think so.
"As testimony, if you tell who the fish is for, we will deal with it."
"How to deal with it?"
"First let someone else take charge of Fuzhou, and Wang Haozhi will enter Beijing to be tried by the Ministry of Justice, Dali Temple, and Yushitai."
"Three court trials? Forty-three fish? Forget it, if this is over, Wang Cishi will have to peel off even if he doesn't die. It's very serious, isn't it?"
"Yes, if our Xiaobei and them just follow a copy, Wang Haozhi will go to prison directly, and his sin..."
"Immediately add five grades, right? Don't, don't be like this. Wang Haozhi's custody is really good. He specially built a large pool in the place where he lived behind the yamen, which was filled with sea water. We transported the fish back, there was no luck. If he died, he would put people in the pool and sell them at a better price.
He used the money earned from the price difference to hire local artisans, and every time our fishing boat went back, he would repair it for us. If there is more, he will contact the local workshop to buy twine to weave the net, and then send it to us according to the number of live fish we provide.
Take him away, the next governor will learn from him? Isn’t it just forty-three fish? I knew that his grandson was over one year old, so what if I gave him a hundred? "
Chen Xihong began to intercede, and the other crew members on the ship became nervous. They did not expect that in a fish donation incident, only forty-three of them were eaten, and a custody would be easily cleaned up. No wonder the officials of Datang were so afraid of King Zhang's family that they would be injured next to each other and would die if they encountered them.
"Bei Bei's lethality is really too great!" A crew member said with emotion.
There is nothing to comment on on the 576th. It is certainly dangerous to be targeted by the little ancestors. It is specially used to deal with the kind of officials who have facts but no evidence. Because the evidence can be destroyed, but the facts are clear to everyone. It is a petty crime to judge officials based on the evidence, and the people will be dissatisfied if they are sentenced. The little ancestors can make up for this with a shot. Even the smallest crime plus the fifth class is enough. .
As for privileges, some people use privileges for themselves, while others use privileges for the people. Privileges for the benefit of the people are not privileges, but are above the law. This overridden "law" refers to the real A fair and reasonable law refers to a law that can be enforced by people who enforce it without making any mistakes. It is not a law that people who gain benefits in the name of the law say.
Since someone can use the law for personal gain, why can't someone override the law for public gain
On the 576th, he knew that some old scholars disliked Beckham’s privileges, but he felt that it was right. Of course, he did not arrest anyone who opposed them. That small group of people was just a small group of people who just slandered privately. If they were If you feel you are right, you can stand on the street and shout to see what the consequences are.
As he thought about it, No. 576 showed a smile and told the people on the escort ship: "To generate electricity, Wang Hao’s crime is small, but his merits are great. In this year’s assessment, he will be given one grade for his sins and two grades for his merits. , The best plus is the top."
The people on the fishing boat were happy, but the reporter from the escort boat leaned on him without making any movements.
No. 5, 7 and 6 was stunned for a moment. Then, as if remembering something, she found a small piece of cloth from her clothes, and lifted a corner for the other person to see.
The two people on the boat looked at it together. There was only one pattern on it. It was a cute cartoon. It was a rice seedling with long legs and a big head. The rice seedling pointed a pistol at his head with one hand and held it with the other. A pigeon with the word "secret" written on its body.
Chen Xihong's eyes widened instantly: "Three... the spies from the Zhangwang Family of Sanshui County? They are really chasing shadows, everywhere, okay, with you here, we will feel more at ease, and see who dares to cheat. Down."
One of Chen Xihong’s crew also happily said, “But no, I heard people say that people like this in the previous dynasties were bad guys. Why didn’t I find that the spy personnel of Tang’s Xiaobao and Juan Juan’s family were broken? This picture is too sad for people to look at, why do you want to point the gun at yourself?"
"As far as you are concerned, there is nothing to keep secret, let him see what you have." No. 5-7 said to the person next to the telegraph machine.
The man took out a pistol and a grenade, and said: "The pistol is used to commit suicide, and the grenade is used to blow up the radio. If I am surrounded by enemies, I can't run away after blowing up the radio, so I will commit suicide."
After speaking, he generated electricity in accordance with the requirements of No. 576.
The people on the fishing boat heard the ticking sound, and their hearts were surging for a while. It turned out that their stable life was protected by someone in secret.
When the telegram ceased, Chen Xihong said: "I have an idea to let Datang get more things from the sea, and it can also provide direct assistance to the guards."
