Daming pirates
Chapter 160: Wily and calculating 1
In the past few days after the New Year, Mr. Chu Cai spent several days on Dongshan Island discussing with his men how to deal with Yu Hailang.
Mr. Chu Cai is about fifty years old now. He is thin and has gray hair, but he is neatly combed. He is dressed luxuriously, with a belt with a mutton-fat jade buckle around his waist, and his clothes are inlaid with gold and silver.
, always holding a Hetian jade Pixiu handle in his hand, and wearing a pair of python boots on his feet, but these clothes can't hide the gangsterism on his body, and he doesn't look like a serious rich man.
The whole body is filled with a sense of nouveau riche.
In addition to Mr. Chu Cai, who was sitting at the top, there were also a dozen shopkeepers and two master-like people sitting in his tent. These people in the tent were noisy and lively.
"Big shopkeeper, I see you, what can you say about this matter? Since the man named Yu did this, he simply called the brothers together to take over that guy's Nanyue Island in one fell swoop!" A shopkeeper said
The person below said in a loud voice to Mr. Chu Cai, who was lying lazily on the soft couch.
There were obviously many people in the tent who agreed with his opinion, and some immediately joined in to express their support. These people were basically radicals who were very angry, preferred to use force, and had a bad temper.
But some people shook their heads and said that it was inappropriate to do so.
"It's not right, it's not right! Although the behavior of this person named Yu is indeed not honest enough! He should be punished properly, but we don't know much about his situation now. How many ships and manpower does Sea Wolf have? We
Not even sure!
If you act rashly, you may suffer losses, and if everyone is gathered together at once, thousands of people will consume a lot of food every day.
The New Year has just ended, and we don’t have much food. If we fail to attack Nanyue Island, we are most afraid of delaying it. Once we delay and we don’t have enough food, I’m afraid there will be trouble!
So based on what I see, it’s better to send someone to find the person named Yu first and ask him to give us an explanation. In addition, send someone to inquire about the strength of the Sea Wolf and find out their background. Then we can decide what to do.
Not too late!"
A shopkeeper shook his head and said to the side. His words also received support from some people, and this group of people were more stable and would consider things more or less carefully.
Chu Cailao squinted his eyes and wrapped his hands around the Hetian jade Pixiu handle. He never said a word and listened to his subordinates arguing below.
It's not that he, the big shopkeeper, has no opinions, it's just Chu Cai Lao's shrewdness. As a big boss who has been running rampant on the sea for so many years and controls dozens of shopkeepers, big and small, it's natural that he can't do it without some means.
Over the years, Mr. Chu Cai has discovered that the head of the family should not be in a hurry to reveal what he is thinking. Most of the time, he has to act inscrutable so that his subordinates cannot guess what he is thinking. In this way,
It became more obvious that he had a palace, and his subordinates respected him even more.
In fact, the people below have said everything that needs to be said in the past two days. Mr. Chu Cai has never expressed his position. He just made silent calculations in his heart and allowed the people below to worry.
After hearing the quarrel among his men, Chu Cai Lao opened his eyes, waved his hands and said: "Okay, stop arguing, let's stop talking about it today, you can go down!"
Seeing that Mr. Chu Cai had not made a formal statement, his subordinates and other shopkeepers could not guess what his intentions were, so they could only stand up in frustration and clasp their fists to leave.
When all the shopkeepers came out of the tent and returned to their respective stations, Mr. Chu Cai sat up straight, his eyes flashed with cold light, revealing his shrewdness.
"Humph! What a bunch of idiots! Do they think I can't think of these things?" Mr. Chu Cai picked up a glass of wine from an exquisite mahogany table nearby, drank it with his neck raised, stretched hard, and put it down.
The wine glass stood up.
At this time, a slightly fat middle-aged man said from the side: "I guess the boss must have been determined for a long time!"
Mr. Chu Cai slowly paced back and forth in the tent, nodded and said: "Of course! In fact, some of them said it right. Although this Yu Hailang should be taken care of, but he left in such a hasty manner, obviously
Not a good idea!
I have heard of Yu Hailang, but I didn’t pay much attention to him before. Before that, I only knew that this person rose up very quickly. In the past, Fuzhou was Zhang Hu’s territory. Zhang Hu had no ambitions.
It should have been bad luck!
Originally, Zhang Hu was quite respectful to me, and I didn't take a fancy to his territory, so I haven't had many interactions with him over the years!
I just heard last year that this tiger was suddenly killed, and a man named Yu appeared and took over Nanyue Island, becoming the new boss of Fuzhou!
Later, you may still remember that I sent someone to inquire about this matter, and I found out that it was several old brothers under Zhang Hu who betrayed Zhang Hu and cooperated with the man named Yu, which led to Zhang Hu's death.
But I have never figured out why these old brothers of Zhang Hu chose such a little-known figure to work for them, and they did not hesitate to hand over Zhang Hu's huge family fortune to this man named Yu.
Later, because the matter had nothing to do with me, I didn't ask any more, but half a year ago I heard that this man named Yu was actually linked to Zhang Hu's old enemy, the Hun Jianglong Chen who was hanging out in the Funing area.
Jiuye won it in one fell swoop, and he couldn't help but become a little curious!
So I sent someone to inquire again, and found out that this person named Yu was really a powerful character. He had not been in the sea for a long time. He was just a small team with more than 20 men, occupying an inconspicuous island.
However, in just over half a year, it emerged in the Fuzhou area and became the largest group besides Zhang Hu.
Zhang Hu and his brothers turned against each other, forcing his brothers to find another way out, so they hooked up with this man named Yu. Yu joined other small groups in the Fuzhou area to first lure Zhang Hu out, and he personally led
They fought a deadly battle at sea, but secretly sent a brother who betrayed Zhang Hu to steal Zhang Hu's retreat!
When Zhang Hu was defeated and returned to Dazhai, he learned that his lair had been raided. He was so angry that he vomited blood on the spot, and all his men were captured by this man named Yu.
Chen Jiu has always coveted the territory in Fuzhou. He had had many conflicts with Zhang Hu before. After the man named Yu became the head of the family, he began to have Chen Jiu's ideas.
Half a year ago, he lured Chen Jiu south and used the old method again. He first lured Chen Jiu into fighting, then personally led his men to raid Chen Jiu's old camp, and then used his troops to block Chen Jiu, who was running back in a hurry, and killed Chen Jiu in one fell swoop.
Jiu's fleet was beaten to pieces, and later he forced several small groups who helped Chen Jiu to turn against Chen Jiu, helped them capture Chen Jiu, and forced Chen Jiu to death.
It took less than two years for Yu to acquire the entire Fuzhou and Funing area, so this person is by no means as simple as you think.
If we want to deal with this person named Yu, we need to be more careful. Don't be careless for a moment and fall into his trap, which will make people laugh! I'm afraid I, Mr. Chu Cai, will have no place to put his face.
!”
After hearing what Mr. Chu Cai said, the fat middle-aged man nodded and said: "The boss is really thoughtful! I admire you!
I have heard about this person named Yu. It is said that this person is not very old. He is only in his twenties. He is so scheming and scheming. In just two years, he actually bought such a large family property. It is really surprising.
surprise!
Moreover, according to rumors from merchants and fishermen in Fuzhou, this person's behavior is very different from ours. After this person became the leader, he changed his past practices and restrained his subordinates very strictly. He rarely raided coastal areas and vigorously
He wiped out the small gangs in his territory and was also kind to the people around his territory.
In doing so, he still looks a little bit like he is in our profession, but he is quite chivalrous! He is indeed an anomaly. Many fishermen along the coast in Fuzhou call him Yu Dashanren! Haha! It's funny!
Moreover, it is said that this man was very good at doing business and prevented his men from plundering passing ships on his territory. Instead, he blocked the waterway and started a business of collecting passing money. It is said that all merchant ships passing through his territory were sold out every year.
He had to pay a large toll to him, and as long as he paid the toll to him, he would ensure that their ships could move freely in his territory, and even provide protection to these merchant ships.
This forced some colleagues to find another way out, and some simply took their men and joined him.
Moreover, this person is also actively recruiting business on his Nanyue Island, attracting many merchants to build business houses on Nanyue Island. He is responsible for providing protection to the merchants, and the merchants can safely do business on his Nanyue Island.
Buying and selling, and he collected the so-called business tax from the profits, and he made a lot of money.
In addition, this person is said to have a lot of ships. He has a fleet dedicated to him, traveling to Guangzhou, Macau, Manila and Southeast Asia, doing business with local merchants, and even doing business with the Franji people.
What happened this time was actually because some of our shopkeepers were unruly, robbed his merchant ship, and killed some of his men, so this guy came up with this dirty trick to deal with us!
It can be seen that this person is not easy to get along with, and you will be punished if something like this happens!"
"Oh? It seems that Ma Xiang has done a lot of research on this guy named Yu! You actually got so much information! That's right, but this guy is very good at running a business and making money! I like this
I really admire him! He actually came up with the idea of collecting tolls! Humph!
This saves trouble. You don’t have to risk your lives, but you can also make a lot of money. I really don’t know what this guy thinks! If this method works, we might as well learn from him and control the coastal waterways.
Wouldn't it be nice to reap the benefits of being a fisherman?" Mr. Chu Cai became interested now, turned around and said to the fat man.
This Ma Xiang is a close confidant of Mr. Chu Cai. Because he is good at managing affairs, proficient in writing, and has some financial management skills, he was appointed by Mr. Chu Cai as the general manager of his old camp. In fact, he is equivalent to his logistics minister and half-strategist.
.
After listening to Mr. Chu Cai's words, Ma Xiang smiled bitterly and shook his head and said: "Although this Yu's method of collecting money to buy the road is good, I'm afraid it's not suitable for us!"
(The second update is here! Please give me monthly tickets and rewards! If you don’t have any, just give me a few red tickets! Haha!)
