Daming pirates

Zhang Hu was killed and the news about the change of ownership of Nanri Island spread quickly throughout Fuzhou. When many people first heard the news, they couldn't believe it was true.

In the eyes of many people, the former Shark Gang was almost an unshakable behemoth. They couldn't understand why the Shark Gang suddenly collapsed overnight and was replaced by a little-known newcomer and incorporated.

Taken over most of the Shark Gang's power.

The name "Sea Wolf" resounded throughout the entire coastal area of ​​Fujian almost overnight, attracting the attention of all those who depended on the sea for a living. This incident was undoubtedly equivalent to an invisible tsunami in the Fujian area.

Suddenly, the balance along the coast of Fuzhou was broken, which had a great impact on all parties. After a few days of calm, Nanri Island began to become lively again.

Almost every day, ships of all kinds sail to Nanri Island, and people of all kinds begin to come in an endless stream to pay homage to Yu Xiaotian, the new overlord of the sea off Fuzhou.

Some merchants who had never heard of Yu Xiaotian before, after hearing the news, began to rack their brains to find connections, trying to establish a relationship with Hailang, because they knew very well that they had established a relationship with Zhang Hu in the past.

That cooperative relationship was gone after the Shark Gang was overthrown.

If they still want to run boats and do business at sea in the future, then Sea Wolf will become a threshold that they cannot cross. Otherwise, if the newly emerged Sea Wolf gets stuck in the Nanri Waterway, they will never be able to live in peace.

Made a deal.

So for the sake of wealth, these people have to bow to Xiaotian.

If all these merchants were in panic, then only one of them felt unusually happy. This person was none other than the Li family who had established a cooperative relationship with Hailang.

On the seventh day after Yu Xiaotian took over Nanri Island, before Qian Song's funeral was completed, Li Yi personally took a boat from Fuzhou to Nanri Island. The purpose was very simple, just to come here specially.

Congratulations to Yu Xiaotian.

Yu Xiaotian also gave Li Yi, his collaborator, great honor. When he learned that Li Yi had come to congratulate him in person, he also personally led his important men out of the stronghold to greet him, and ceremoniously let Li Yi into the stronghold.

After meeting Yu Xiaotian this time, Li Yi's attitude was much more affectionate and respectful than before. He no longer greeted Yu Xiaotian as an equal, but lowered his posture and bowed to him.

Meet Yu Xiaotian.

Yu Xiaotian took Li Yi's arm and said with a smile: "Shopkeeper Li! You must never be so polite to me! I think I can be where I am today because of your great contributions, Shopkeeper Li! Please come in!"

When Li Yi followed Yu Xiaotian into the village and sat down at the wine table, Li Yi immediately took out a gift list from his arms, presented it to Yu Xiaotian, and said with a smile: "I was surprised to hear about Yu two days ago.

The master has taken over Nanri Island. To be honest, I couldn’t believe it at first. Later, someone told me that this matter cannot be false. I am really happy for the master!

So I didn’t dare to neglect, and quickly prepared a small gift, and came to congratulate you, the master. A mere small gift is not respectful, but I hope that the master will accept it happily!"

After Yu Xiaotian was polite, he didn't make any excuses because he knew very well that from now on he would no longer be controlled by the Li family. Li Yi, a businessman, also knew this very well and tried to take advantage of their previous relationship.

, to consolidate the cooperation between them, so giving him a gift is an inevitable result. If he refuses, it will make Li Yi feel uneasy.

So he reached out and took the gift list. After a brief glance, he immediately laughed because the gifts Li Yi gave him this time were really not light. Basically, they were all things he wanted before but couldn't get it smoothly.

Among the things he got, there were refined iron produced in Guangdong, as well as saltpeter and sulfur that are difficult to obtain nowadays. Even more rare was the eucommia gum that Yu Xiaotian asked him to find a way to get before. This time, Li Yi also helped him get it.

Some arrived, and this time they were sent with the ship.

In addition, Li Yi was very generous this time and gave Yu Xiaotian two small Buddha guns and ten muskets. If it had been a few months ago, Yu Xiaotian would not have known what to do.

How can I be grateful to him, but now these things are nothing in his eyes.

After this reshuffle, Yu Xiaotian's Sea Wolf is no longer what it used to be. Now he has dozens of ships of various types in his hands, including bird ships and ships that can be used as warships.

There are as many as fourteen, and the rest are small fishing boats taken over from the Shark Gang. Looking at his peers in Fujian, his strength is already pretty good.

After taking inventory a few days ago, Yu Xiaotian knew that in addition to various types of ships, he also had many artillery pieces in his hands. There were dozens of them in total, among which there were nearly ten Dafolang machine cannons alone.

There are so many doors, which makes Yu Xiaotian taller

What's interesting is that on Zhang Hu's ship, I actually found a cannon that can be regarded as a Hongyi cannon. In addition, the rest are some small Fo Lang machines, bowl-mouth blunderbuss, Baizi blunderbuss, and tassel cannons.

, many of which include five-door tiger squatting guns.

Needless to say, there are more than a hundred types of fire guns, including single-eyed guns, three-eyed guns, kidnapper guns, bird guns, and Japanese iron cannons. Among them, there are four bird guns and Japanese iron cannons that can be regarded as matchlock guns.

There are more than ten shots. If these firepowers are concentrated and used, they will be quite powerful.

So this time when Li Yi sent these ten muskets and two small guns, Yu Xiaotian was just happy, but he didn't have the same sense of surprise as before.

After Yu Xiaotian read the gift list, he thanked Li Yi and handed the gift list to Liu Wang behind him. Now his identity is different, and his subordinates are also mixed. First, considering his personal safety

The second problem is that the necessary staging should be taken into consideration.

So with the instigation of his subordinates, Yu Xiaotian selected ten people from his subordinates to be his personal soldiers. They usually followed him and were responsible for maintaining his safety. They also served as his messengers.

Liu Wang, his uncle, naturally became the captain of his personal soldiers, and Zhao Si also became one of his personal followers. Now these soldiers are all trembling. It can be said that they are almost sideways on Nanri Island.

Let's go, anyone who sees them will be polite to them.

Fortunately, Yu Xiaotian is self-aware and knows that if his privileges are ignored, they will become a cancer sooner or later, so he has very strict requirements for his soldiers. Otherwise, these strong boys really don't know what to do first.

Which leg to take?

"Master Yu, I am coming here this time to tell you some news!" Li Yi saw that Yu Xiaotian was no longer as excited as before about the gift that Yu Xiaotian sent him, so he hurriedly continued.

"Oh? What's the news? Shopkeeper Li wants to hear it!" Yu Xiaotian asked.

"Master Yu, do you still remember what you told me? Some time ago, there was a lot of fuss about the change of governor of Fujian. I once talked about this with Master Yu! I wonder if Master Yu still remembers it?" Li Yi

Asked about Xiaotian.

After hearing this, Yu Xiaotian remembered this matter again. He was also paying attention to this matter some time ago, but later because of Zhang Hu's incident, he put aside the matter of power changes in Fujian on land. Now

Li Yi suddenly mentioned this matter, and he was sure that the matter had come to an end, so he immediately nodded: "Yes! Yu still remembers it! But now it has been determined?"

"That's right! Mr. Yu is really a god! He actually predicted the result in advance! The imperial edict from the imperial court finally came down last month. Sure enough, as Mr. Yu said, the former governor of Fujian, Shang Zhou Zuo, was unable to pacify the people of Lan Hongmao and Jing Jing.

On the grounds of harassing the local area, Nan Juyi, the right deputy governor of the capital, was sent to replace him and came to Fujian to take up the post of governor!

Now Mr. Shang has left his post and entered Beijing, and the new Governor of Fujian, Mr. Nan, has taken up his post at the Fuzhou Governor's Yamen!

There is nothing wrong with what Yu Dangjia expected. I really don’t know how Yu Dangjia, who lives in the sea, can predict so accurately! Nowadays, Fujian officials are also very busy, so although Yu Dangjia replaced Zhang Hu at this time,

It is estimated that the government will not pay too much attention to this matter! Please rest assured, Master Yu!" Li Yi said to Xiaotian with respect on his face.

Yu Xiaotian was secretly amused. How could he predict the unknown? On land, he could be said to be a shadow. He basically had no one he knew. How could he guess who would succeed Zhou Zuo as governor of Shang Dynasty?

It was Nan Juyi who worked there, or it was his previous understanding of the history of this era that allowed him to foresee this incident in advance.

Now Li Yi must have admired him even more because of this incident, and wanted to get some information about this from him.

So he laughed and said: "How could Yu have any predictions? It's just a friend who mentioned some things before! I just wasn't sure at the beginning, but I didn't expect it to be so! Haha!

So in that case, I wonder if Shopkeeper Li has some connections with Mr. Nan?"

Li Yi saw that Yu Xiaotian refused to explain the source of the news and was unable to inquire further, so he smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I'm just a commoner! Although I was reminded by Master Yu at the beginning, I didn't have any way to get to Nan.

This is your line, so I can only sit back and watch!

Fortunately, although Mr. Shang resigned this time and Mr. Nan took over the post of governor of Fujian, Mr. Nan did not bring many followers with him during this trip. Some old people in the governor's yamen continued to be retained, but I went through them and made arrangements in advance.

Nowadays, I can still understand some official things! This is all thanks to the boss’s reminder. If there is any news from the boss in the future, I hope you can continue to remind me. I will be very grateful! "

After hearing this, Yu Xiaotian nodded and said: "Easy to say, if I hear any news again in the future, I will naturally inform Shopkeeper Li of you first!

By the way, since Shopkeeper Li is here this time, I happen to have something to discuss with Shopkeeper Li!"
