Daming pirates

At this time, the two servants brought by Gu Youcai had also been captured by the soldiers. They were thrown to the ground, their swords were taken away, and they were pushed to the ground. Someone stepped on their necks and made them

He couldn't even utter a single sentence, and he couldn't even make a sound begging for mercy.

The Jiaozhou magistrate and other officials also stepped forward at this time, gathered around, and began to listen to the confession of Gu Zhong, who was lying on the ground. After listening, everyone in the group showed a look of fear on their faces.

It turns out that this Gu Youcai is really not a toy. Not only does he control the sale of private salt in a large area, but he also has many private servants and slaves. He has a team dedicated to selling private salt for him, and the number is as many as

There are more than 200 people who usually hide in the surrounding areas, and their identities are all thieves.

Moreover, Gu Youcai also works part-time as a human trafficker. Over the years, young women or girls have often disappeared in the Jiaozhou City area. In fact, they were secretly kidnapped by this group of people, and then sold to the Nanzhili area, making a lot of money, and

He himself also ruined the innocence of many innocent women.

This guy’s family property was too big and he had too much money. Seeing that the rebels were about to attack Jiaozhou, he was afraid that the rebels would be interested in his property. In desperation, he actually thought of simply defecting to the rebels secretly and sending someone to contact the rebels.

, once you rebel

If the army comes to attack Jiaozhou City, then he is willing to act as an internal agent in the city privately, but he does not want to reveal his identity and just protects his family property. The rebels can take whatever they want in the city and have nothing to do with him.

Unfortunately for him, on the way back, the men he sent were inadvertently discovered by people from the Yu Jiajun who were operating in this area, so they secretly arrested Gu Zhong and sent him back to Fushan Station.

On the way, they happened to meet Yu Xiaotian leading his troops. They tortured and interrogated Gu Zhong along the way. Gu Zhong couldn't live or die. He couldn't stand it anymore, so he had to confess Gu Youcai. Only then did Yu let him go.

Xiaotian caught the handle, and after arriving here, such a drama happened.

After hearing this, all the officials in Zhizhou and Jiaozhou broke out in cold sweat. They almost jumped over and kicked Gu Youcai to death on the spot. This Gu Youcai was such a bastard. In order to save his family wealth, he actually wanted to kill him.

The whole city of Jiaozhou

Fortunately, he was bumped into by Yu Xiaotian's men today and his plot was foiled. Otherwise, if the rebels came to attack Jiaozhou City one day, and Gu Youcai asked his men to make up and act as internal agents in the city, then

How can Jiaozhou City not be destroyed?

Thinking of this, these officials and gentry all hated Gu Youcai so much that they all felt cold behind their backs and broke into cold sweats. They felt very scared just thinking about it. If it weren't for Yu Xiaotian, they wouldn't be able to do it in the future.

The collective will really be in bad luck. Once Jiaozhou City is destroyed, they will all become fat sheep for the rebels, and they will die without knowing how.

Yu Xiaotian was absolutely right to capture Gu Youcai today. Moreover, after this incident, Lord Zhizhou became so angry that he ordered two other servants of Gu Youcai to be tortured and interrogated. When the two servants saw what had happened, they were exposed.

So they didn't bear it to the end, they all nodded and confessed, admitting the matter.

So Gu Youcai's crime was immediately confirmed. Zhizhou was so angry that he was trembling all over. He pointed at Gu Youcai and almost forgot to be polite, and cursed loudly.

Yu Xiaotian smiled and said to Zhizhou: "Sir, I accidentally saved the entire Jiaozhou City this time. So I have an unkind request. Can I hand over the Gujiazhuang to be used as a military station? Yes.

Knowing that there are many servants and salt servants surnamed Gu in the Gu family village, they may not be able to escape without mercy! It is better to leave them to the people down here to deal with them!"

At this moment, the Jiaozhou magistrate was just rejoicing secretly, and without thinking too much, he nodded and agreed, but he asked Gu Youcai to interrogate him personally and convict him. He must be cut into pieces with a thousand knives!

Yu Xiaotian immediately agreed and handed Gu Youcai over to the Jiaozhou government. With a wave of his hand, he ordered the cavalry to rush to Gujiazhuang and start taking action.

In fact, when he came this time, he had already made up his mind to capture Gujiazhuang. At this time, the cavalry had already gone over in advance and surrounded Gujiazhuang. Next, he waited for Yu Xiaotian to give the order to increase the number of troops.

Send personnel to capture Gujiazhuang.

With the Jiaozhou Zhizhou's personal consent, it can be said that Yu Xiaotian's capture of Gujiazhuang is reasonable and legal. That afternoon, the Gu family members in Gujiazhuang were forced to open the door of the village in a daze, and were dressed as soldiers by Yu Jiajun.

They were tied up and sent to Jiaozhou City, but they secretly detained some of the younger women and sent them to the Fushan camp, and then transferred them back to Taiwan Island. Women! They are in short supply now.

It would be a pity to hand it over to the government and then turn it into an official prostitute! Haha! It’s better for them to keep it for themselves!

It was only then that Jiaozhou Zhizhou remembered that there must be a large amount of money and food hidden in Gujiazhuang. He did not check for a while and actually forgot this. Now that Gujiazhuang was captured by Yu Xiaotian, everything was gained.

After hearing Yu Xiaotian, I don't know how much money Yu Xiaotian will make this time. In short, it seems that they have not taken any advantage in this business, but it is probably difficult to get Yu Xiaotian to spit out these wealth again.

Although the Jiaozhou Zhizhou was a little unwilling, he did not dare to offend Yu Xiaotian at this time. After all, Yu Xiaotian had saved a whole city of Jiaozhou City, and getting a little discount was considered as his reward. Thinking of this

After a while, he didn't mention the matter again, and he concluded the case within two days, took Gu Youcai out directly, and sentenced him to death, which was also the punishment of Lingchi, and chopped him up in the street.

When the soldiers and civilians in Jiaozhou City heard about this, they went crazy with anger. When they learned that Gu Youcai was going to be chopped up, they all ran to spend money to buy a piece of Gu Youcai's meat and immediately swallowed it alive.

This Gu Youcai has followed in the footsteps of Yuan Chonghuan. However, Yuan Chonghuan's death is still a bit of a loss, but this guy can be said to have died in true honor and deserved it. He was such a big fat man, and was cut into pieces the size of a fingertip by the executioner.

The minced meat was sold and eaten alive by the excited people in the city, which made the executioner actually make a small fortune.

As for some of the people involved in this matter, they were also executed and immediately beheaded and abandoned. Some of those who were not guilty enough to die were sent to prison or sent to prison. In short, the Gu family in Gujiazhuang was completely destroyed.

The gentry and squires outside the city felt relieved when they saw the fate of the Gu family, but some of them felt shuddering at the same time. After all, although they did not collude with the rebels, they also contacted the rebels privately, especially those in the north of the city.

Several large households felt that the general named Yu, who came from Fujian, was not easy to mess with.

Next, the person named Yu will go to Pingdu to quell the rebellion. If they catch something against them, will they be the next ones to be exterminated?

When they thought of this matter, these big families couldn't sit still, and they also discovered from this matter that this man named Yu was not a reckless rough man. Scouts had already been sent out before the soldiers and horses were moved. God knows if he was.

He is also keeping an eye on people like them. If they are caught by him, they will be very unlucky.

Yu Xiaotian also saw the psychology of these people, and asked his subordinates to get a list of local wealthy households, and go door-to-door to ask them for help. For those wealthy gentry who had no evil intentions, they could naturally ignore them.

He was a little put off, but for those who had evil thoughts in their hearts, the Yu Jiajun who came to ask for help was like a ghost to them.

These people with evil intentions naturally did not dare to neglect them, for fear that the other party would also catch them. They did not dare to take any chances and refuse to give them, so they had to pinch their noses and take out a large amount of money and food, like a grandson.

They took the people with them, pulled them up on a cart, and sent them to Gujiazhuang, which was now used as a military station by Yu Xiaotian.

Knocking down Gujiazhuang this time, for Xiaotian, the harvest was huge, which made Yu Xiaotian and his men a little stunned. The various hidden coins they found in Gujiazhuang, if converted into cash,

There are more than 60,000 taels, which shows how much wealth the Gu family has accumulated over the past hundred years. In addition, they have also extracted thousands of kilo of sea salt from Gujiazhuang.

Even if these private salts are resold at wholesale prices, they will be worth at least several thousand taels of silver. As for other silks, gold and silver jewelry, not to mention other silks and satins, gold and silver jewelry, in total, the real estate in Gujiazhuang is not included.

, worth at least nearly one hundred thousand taels. This amount of silver is enough to pay his subordinates for several months.

So doing this kind of thing is Yu Xiaotian's favorite thing. Killing such a guy has no psychological burden at all, and he can still make money, so why not do it?

In fact, the biggest gain from taking away the Gu family this time was not the goods, but that this time they took away a huge private salt smuggling operation in the entire Jiaodong area.

The sale of private salt is a business with huge profits. Which of the salt lords in South Zhili is not as rich as the country? But if Yu Xiaotian rashly wants to get involved here and also engage in private salt business,

, it will definitely lead to counterattack from the local Gu family, including those who are unfamiliar with the place. It will be very difficult to open the market.

But he didn't expect that as soon as he arrived here this time, the Gu family would come to the door and put a huge handle into his hands. He didn't know whether it was because he was very lucky or the Gu family was very unlucky, but he did something good that he had never dreamed of.

, just hit him on the head.

While killing the Gu family, Yu Xiaotian did not kill all the people in the Gu family. Instead, he selected a few key figures who understood the entire illegal salt trafficking route to stay. As long as he controlled this group of people, he would be in control.

The network of private salt sellers living in this area can almost effortlessly take over this network, and soon they can continue to use this network to make a fortune, and at the same time, they can also use this network, in this

Build up an intelligence.

This was something that the advance personnel he sent could not do before, but this time he solved it easily. Yu Xiaotian was sitting on an imperial chair in Gujiazhuang, happily seeing his teeth but not his eyes.

Why did he encounter all the cheap things in the world? Now he was happy.

(Today, I would like to express my special thanks to Brother Eagle Eye for the reward! Haha! Let the monthly tickets and rewards come more intensely! It will be more exciting later!)
