Daming pirates

When they returned to Treasure Island, the people on the island immediately cheered and ran to the beach to welcome them back. This time they went out to sea to make a fortune. Yu Xiaotian left a few young people to look after the house on the island, which saved a lot of money.

Accidentally, the old home was raided again, so only about twenty people left.

After they returned, they found that Zhao Mazi, who had gone to Lianjiang, had returned to Treasure Island with his boat, standing on the shore from a distance and waving to them.

Yu Xiaotian jumped off the boat before the boat was stable, and strode to Zhao Mazi. Before Zhao Mazi could tell him the result of his trip to Lianjiang, he knelt down on one knee with a look of shame on his face.

Said: "Uncle Zhao! Yu is incompetent and failed to bring Zhao Tong back safely this time! Please express my condolences to Uncle Zhao and forgive me!"

Zhao Mazi was originally waiting for them to come back with joy, but he did not expect to receive such bad news. Dang even was dumbfounded and did not recover for a long time. He just looked at Yu Xiaotian kneeling in front of him for a while.

He asked in a trembling voice: "You...you...Zhao Tong? Is he dead?"

Yu Xiaotian looked ashamed, nodded and said: "Uncle Zhao, please express your condolences! This time we went out and robbed a boat, but the other party refused to surrender honestly, so the two sides started fighting! Brother Zhao Tong was so brave that he killed the enemy.

On the boat, he was injured by the opponent. Yu couldn't rescue him in time, and he couldn't save the lives of Brother Zhao Tong. As a result, Brother Zhao Tong...

This is all Yu's fault! Please give Uncle Zhao a few scoldings! I feel better now!"

Zhao Mazi burst into tears immediately, and his lips trembled for a long time without speaking. Zhao Tong is his nephew. He went to Lianjiang to do business. He didn't expect that when he came back, his nephew would be in a different way from others. This is true.

He couldn't accept it.

At this time, Ma Lian, Madman Meng, Liu Laoliu and others also hurriedly got off the boat and ran over. First, they pulled Yu Xiaotian up with all their hands and feet, and then hurriedly supported Zhao Mazi, who was in tears, so that they could explain Zhao Tong's story.

matter.

Zhao Mazi sat on the stone, wiped his tears, and finally recovered after a while. He patted Yu Xiaotian and said, "Helmsman, don't apologize! This is Zhao Tong's child's bad fate. I can't blame you.

What! Since we are in this business, we know that anyone may end up like this. It’s good that Zhao Tong leaves! He won’t be punished if he leaves! What a pity! Zhao Tong doesn’t have a wife yet, nor does he have a wife.

Leave a child! I'm sorry for my cousin!" Zhao Mazi sighed deeply and stood up.

After a while, everyone carried Zhao Tong's body down. This time, Yu Xiaotian did not let Zhao Tong be buried at sea. Instead, he brought Zhao Tong's body back to Treasure Island and let Zhao Mazi see it.

Zhao Tong.

The joy on the island suddenly disappeared, and everyone who knew Zhao Tong suddenly looked gloomy. For a long time, no one could show a smile.

It was not until everyone buried Zhao Tong on the south side of the island that the island recovered to some extent. Several old guys followed Yu Xiaotian back to the big stone house again and sat down in order.

After Yu Xiaotian apologized to Zhao Mazi again, Zhao Mazi shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Crazy Meng and the others have already explained the matter clearly, so what's wrong with the master? It's okay not to mention it, but bring it up.

Let everyone be sad! No matter who dies in this world, it is not worth making everyone sad for too long. This is life!

Now that Zhao Tong can be brought back and buried by the big boss, I, Zhao Mazi, will be satisfied! Don’t say more about anything else! It’s a good thing that you can succeed on this trip. There is no way to fish for nothing at sea, and people will always die.

Yes! There is nothing to say if it falls on anyone!

Let’s talk about my trip to Lianjiang this time!”

After Zhao Mazi talked to this point, everyone had nothing more to say, so their attention immediately focused on Zhao Mazi's trip to Lianjiang, and all their eyes were focused on Zhao Mazi.

Yu Xiaotian stood up and poured a bowl of water for Zhao Mazi and brought it to Zhao Mazi. Zhao Mazi even said that he didn't dare to take it. After taking a drink of water, he calmed down and forced himself not to think about Zhao Tong's death.

They began to talk to Xiaotian about their trip to Lianjiang.

"This time we went to Lianjiang and after a lot of effort we finally found the Li family, but shopkeeper Li was not at home. We waited for three days before we saw shopkeeper Li.

Shopkeeper Li had already heard about our little Huangdao incident, and was shocked when he saw me. He didn't want to see me at first, but it was only after I spent some money and asked someone to intercede that he finally agreed to see me.

Originally, when he heard that we wanted to ship the goods, he flatly refused on the spot and immediately asked someone to drive me out. He also said that if I didn't leave, he would report to the officials and have me arrested.

Later, I presented him with the Xuan furnace that I had brought from the Jiang family. I had seen the Xuan furnace at the Li family in the early years, and it was in the Li family's ancestral hall, but I found it at the Jiang family.

When shopkeeper Li saw the xuanluo, he was shocked on the spot and asked me where I got it. So I told shopkeeper Li how the Jiang family colluded with Xiao Dazui's group to sneak attack on Li's family fort.

He told the story from beginning to end, and told shopkeeper Li that the furnace was found from the Jiang family.

Only then did shopkeeper Li know that it turned out that his family was destroyed by pirates, and it was Jiang Baihu who was behind the scenes to steal the Li family's wealth. He was so angry that he threw the tea bowl on the spot! He nearly fainted from anger!

Later, when Shopkeeper Li heard that you had killed Jiang Baihu at the tiller, he immediately agreed to eat our food and asked me to send a message to the tiller, hoping to thank him in person for helping them with the Li family's murder.

The favor of the enemy!

Moreover, I also told Shopkeeper Li about why we attacked the Jiang family compound. Shopkeeper Li knew that we were forced to go to sea to become pirates, so he agreed to be our master on land from now on, as long as it is ours.

If he eats all the goods, he will not let us suffer!

If we hadn't accidentally learned that Jiang Baihu was the real culprit behind the attack on the Li family this time, this matter would have been really difficult to handle!"

Zhao Mazi told everyone roughly about going to Lianjiang County to find Shopkeeper Li, and finally sighed with emotion.

After everyone heard this, they all breathed a long sigh of relief. Their path was very narrow right now. Being a pirate was easy, but finding a safe place to ship the goods was not easy. Now Zhao Mazi can

Through relationships, they can contact the relatively powerful Li family as their next family and help them ship goods. Then their business will be much easier in the future!

After Zhao Mazi took a sip of water, he continued: "In addition, this time after shopkeeper Li heard that we were forced to leave the Funing coast, he immediately had people prepare ten stones of good rice, two pigs, four sheep and ten chickens as gifts for us.

When I left, I personally sent people to deliver these things to the ship, and I brought them back this time too! At least these days, we don’t have to worry about eating and drinking!"

Hearing this, everyone became even more happy. The haze caused by Zhao Tong's death suddenly subsided a lot. Everyone smiled, and Yu Xiaotian even thanked Zhao Mazi for his hard work.

"In this way, if the Li family is willing to be our next family, things will be much easier to handle in the future! In addition to speeding up the brothers to practice their kung fu on the ship, our top priority now is to get the goods on hand as soon as possible! But

I wonder if Uncle Zhao has made an agreement with the Li family this time, how will we deliver the goods to them?" Yu Xiaotian was in a good mood now, and hurriedly asked Zhao Mazi while the iron was hot.

Zhao Mazi nodded and replied: "At any rate, I have done this business for a few days before. Of course I know that I need to make an appointment with the delivery location first! I have already discussed it with shopkeeper Li. If we ship goods in the future, we will go directly to the store.

If we go to Lian Island, the Li family will pick up the goods at Dalian Island, otherwise, it would be more risky for us to go to Lianjiang!"

"So, the Li family is actually engaged in maritime business?" Liu Laoliu asked immediately after hearing Zhao Mazi say that the delivery location was Dalian Island.

"Shopkeeper Li didn't say it clearly, but according to what he said, the Li family must be involved in overseas business! At least they also have a ship, otherwise if they take our goods, they will have to find another ship to sell them. That way

The risk is great!" Zhao Mazi didn't hide anything and answered directly.

Yu Xiaotian had heard of Dalian Island and Xiaolian Island. These two islands should be two islands under the jurisdiction of Pingtan County in later generations. They are not far to the west of Haitan Island and are located on the south side of the Minjiang River estuary.

He heard Liu Laoliu say it earlier.

This Haitan Island has actually been inhabited for a long time, but the sea was banned during the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty. In order to prevent the islanders from getting involved with the Japanese pirates, all the islanders on the island were moved inward, leaving the huge Haitan Island abandoned.

In the early years, Haitan Island was once occupied by Japanese pirates, but later the imperial court sent troops to annihilate it. Haitan Island once again became an ownerless desert island. Pirates often appeared here. However, because Haitan Island is so big, it is also the largest island along the coast of Fujian.

Island, so there are no pirates who have the strength to completely control Haitan Island. However, some maritime merchants will use Haitan Island and some surrounding islands as a transit place for their goods.

According to what Zhao Mazi said, the Li family's business must be quite big, and it must also be engaged in maritime trade. Otherwise, they would not have a warehouse on Dalian Island and let them trade on Dalian Island.

.

In this way, Yu Xiaotian felt even more reassured. If the Li family had this sea line, it would be more convenient to eat their goods, and then they could resell these goods and obtain greater profits.

The reason why Shopkeeper Li rejected Zhao Mazi in the first place was actually not because he didn't want to eat their goods, but because the case they committed in Fu'an County was too big and they didn't want to be implicated.

Now, after learning that it was Jiang Baihu who caused harm to the Li family, he made up his mind to be their nest master from now on. Otherwise, he would not have agreed so readily.

(The second chapter is here! By the way, I’m asking for some red tickets for my brothers, haha!)
