“Don’t, the escort boat is stable, my fishing boat is not bad, it just doesn’t have a machine gun. Tell me, I don’t fish anymore.”
After talking to the person who fell from the hot air balloon, he shouted to the others: “All spread out, go fishing, catch more per boat, bring my share out, and I will tell you the news.”
He was greeted by a piece of With laughter and scolds, all the boats dispersed.
One escort boat approached, and the other still followed the group of fishing boats.
The people on the boat who approached were not in a hurry. There were four people on the hot air balloon. It would be good if they were alive, and it would not be distressing if the things were gone.
“Brother, drink some water, I have fresh water, you can wash your face again, my surname is Chen, my name is Chen Xihong, everyone calls me Ahong.” The owner of the small fishing boat who claimed to be Chen Xihong said while holding a water bag.
“Don’t, keep it for you, we’re not that delicate, I… can’t tell you my name, I’m the ‘Air patrol No. 576’.” No.576 hurriedly stopped the other party from taking water, pointing to the embroidery on his chest numbers, said.
Chen Xihong still brought the water: “Drink some, there is enough water, you can help us point out the fish, we will save time, and the water will come out. Brother you just said, who are you looking for?
” , the exact number is unknown.” No. 576 took two sips of water and handed the water bag to the next person.
“What are we doing here with cannibals? Didn’t they get beaten?” Chen Xihong felt even more surprised.
“Yes, I was beaten, so I wanted to come to the ship to arrest the Tang people and threaten us.”
Chen Xihong suddenly said: “No wonder the number of Tang escort ships has increased, and you have appeared. Damn cannibals, you know how to play tricks and tricks if you can’t beat them, bah. !”
Chen Xihong, who showed a disdainful expression, said angrily: “They should be killed. The soldiers who can’t beat us will only count on our fishermen. Five seven six, you said they ran to Liuqiu area? Will it be? On the island, more local tribe cooperation?”
“Absolutely not.” Wu Qi Liu said firmly.
After he finished speaking, he started to undress, soaked in sea water, the wind blew, the sun dipped, and after drying, it was covered with salt.
Soon he was completely naked, took the underwear from the escort ship and put it on, shirtless to see where the hot air balloon was floating.
Chen Xihong originally thought that the people flying in the sky were all skinny and tender. When he saw the four of them wearing only one underwear, he realized that the skin on the four of them was red with a hint of black, and pink and white when pressed. the way.
The color of the skin must be often exposed to the wind and the sun. As for the pink and white ones, they are the traces left after the injury.
“You…” Chen Xihong felt distressed when he saw the scars on the four people’s bodies, and said, “You have worked hard.”
“It doesn’t matter, it was done through training, and now there are fewer and fewer injuries, and you are trained. You can rest assured to catch yours. Fish, we have the ability and confidence to ensure that you will not be hurt, but don’t run too far with a single boat, and it is not worthwhile for the escort boat to follow.”
Wu Qi Liu comforted Chen Xihong.
Chen Xihong smiled: “I believe it, we all believe it. Years ago, I occasionally encountered Japanese boats, bigger than our small fishing boats, going to various islands to snatch things, and fighting with local tribesmen. This one looks very powerful. When they encounter our small boats, we won’t let them. They have to avoid them.
Otherwise, unless he can kill all our boats,
our Tang gunboat will blast them to pieces. We are not afraid. Sometimes He also deliberately blocked their way.”
May 761 listened, dumbfounded, persuaded: “Don’t always take the initiative to bully people. In fact, silence is not enough, we will investigate, of course we have to ask if people are gone, as long as someone says they see it Once their ship appears, we will chase them to Japan and torture all the crew members who go to sea within a few months, and ask them to prove that they are not the murderer. If they cannot prove it, they will be counted as the murderer.
” I really didn’t know that my Tang Dynasty would be so unreasonable, I recalled it and said: “No wonder they are afraid of us, I guess we overturned our boat when we were close to them, they are more afraid than us, right? ?”
“Yes, because we don’t believe in this kind of 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 Qi Liu smiled.
Chen Xihong raised his chest for a while, feeling very proud. Unlike when he was a child when he went to sea with his father, he was always afraid of encountering a ship from Japan or Silla, and worried that he would suffer a loss.
After being happy for a while, Chen Xihong suddenly reacted, looked at Wu Qi Liu, and asked uncertainly, “You…you belong to the Zhang Wang family? Little son, little lady, we are Xiaobao and Cuckoo.”
Five seven six pats on the forehead, it is a default, and accidentally said it.
Chen Xihong immediately became more affectionate, looking at the hot air balloon floating on the sea, and said, “Do you want us to help you drag the balloon back?”
“No, you see the useful places, cut them off and use them yourself. The weapons and equipment are all overturned into the sea, let’s go back and replace them with new ones, you must not go fishing, it is not worth your life.”
Wu Qi Liu was worried that they would dive to help with the fishing, and reminded them that it was several tens of meters deep, and people would dive even if they were diving. It’s hard work, not to mention that he has to float up with a heavy weapon. If one really dies, not to mention that he will be punished when he goes back, even if his conscience is not good.
Chen Xihong really had this plan before. If something from the national army fell, he should help to fish it out. After listening to 5761, he gave up, but he was still very interested in what the hot air balloon did not sink.
He rowed the boat over there and said, “Okay, we have divided it, you should replace it with new balloons, the old ones will be dangerous, if you fall down and die today, I don’t want to fish here in the future. Now. I advise you to go to the island, discuss with the local tribes, and tell them to eat more people and not to collude with each other.”
Wu Qi Liu nodded first, and then explained to Chen Xihong: “We have already talked to Liu Qiu. After the people on the island have finished negotiating the business, if Duo Cannibal really comes to the island, they grab one, and we are willing to exchange them for a set of glassware, glass plates, glass bowls, and glass dishes, a set of sixteen pieces.”
Chen Xihong opened his mouth, held back his laughter, swallowed two mouthfuls, and sighed: “More cannibals, please pray to their master, don’t let them go to the island, and don’t meet the local people who are begging. Listen to the exchange. , I’m all tempted.”
Chen Xihong is no longer worried this time, the tribes of the original residents on Liuqiu Island are indeed much worse than the Tang Dynasty in terms of force, so after the Tang Dynasty showed the power of the gunboats, the chiefs in the tribe put away all kinds of weapons. Take advantage of the small mind, and exchange with Datang normally.
But the weapons of Cannibals seem to be the same as those of the tribe. If they really meet, Cannibals will be beaten to death. One life is a set of glassware, which is valuable.
Thinking about it again, Chen Xihong laughed out loud, and said to Wu Qi Liu, who looked at him blankly, “Will Cannibals use the Tang language to contact the chief of the tribe? Then he said that he was willing to exchange things and cooperate with both sides. As a result, they thought that The stupid locals agreed first, tricked them back to the stockade, arrested them all, and said to them, ‘You are so stupid, come over and give us benefits in person’. Haha, I’m dying of laughter.”
The people on the two boats They all laughed along, or many cannibals really went to the island, and this situation would occur, and most people thought that the people on Liuqiu Island were stupid.
They were really ignorant before, and they always suffered losses when exchanging goods, especially in the previous dynasties. In the past, the exchange wanted to take advantage of others, but they did not agree. They turned around and arrested many people and brought them back.
But this is not the case now. Now the original residents of Liuqiu Island have been taught to be smart, yes, to teach, the merchants of the Tang Dynasty and the personnel sent by the imperial court to teach patiently.
“I couldn’t figure it out before.” Chen Xihong pointed in the direction of Liuqiu Island: “Why don’t you take advantage of the strength of the force and directly occupy it. Later, I learned that the terrain is complicated, the soil and water are not suitable, and the local residents did not come to kill us. It’s not cost-effective to consume too many resources to forcefully occupy it, right?”
“Yes, there is also the question of who will occupy it even if it is defeated. I don’t have enough population in Datang, otherwise the young master will not encourage everyone to have children.” Five seven six agree.
“I don’t understand why I want to teach them more insight.” Chen Xihong asked.
“Because bullying the other party without the knowledge of the other party and taking advantage of the exchange of goods, when people find out later, they will feel resentment. Since they don’t want to destroy him, then they will integrate into him. This island is not bad, we are also planning to build a new one. port.
In the past, people said that they would make close attacks from afar, but the young master and the young lady divided the area around me in the Tang Dynasty. One part was merged, and the other part was economic attack. The only way to invade the far place was absolute military aggression, oh, it was support.
Wu Qi Liu told
Chen Xihong about Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan’s plans in detail.
Chen Xihong listened and laughed: “Haha, if we invade, we will invade. We don’t object. My family is still arguing and hitting him against other countries.” That’s alright, the people of the country who are bullied will hate Xiaobao and Cuckoo, but I have always set up a tablet of longevity for them.
Sometimes when I go to the grave, I even tell my ancestors that if someone killed by Xiaobao and Cuckoo turns into a ghost to come over and ask the ancestors to help kill them, there are many people in Tang Dynasty, and there are more ghosts. Not afraid of foreign ghosts.
The
other people on the fishing boat also nodded vigorously, and one of them echoed: “It doesn’t matter to me whether people from other countries die or not, I know that Xiaobao and Cuckoo make my life more comfortable, and whoever dares to block them, I will let them.” who suffers.
”
It’s alright, it’s alright, now people eat more food, and I didn’t see you helping me in the past. It sounds nice.”
“Chen Xihong despised the person who spoke.
“I…how can I help?”
I won’t let you beat others in the past, don’t tell me, what have you helped?
“This man’s face was blushed by the sea breeze, and his face turned even redder.
“You are a helper, dare to call me?”
Who said I didn’t help?
I donated half of the fish I caught last time and last time I went out to sea. What have you done?
“Chen Xihong asked righteously.
The man was speechless for a while.
On May 76th, he asked: “Who did you donate to?”
The little son and the little lady didn’t ask for donations, we have enough money.
Moreover, the two of them also said that it is not a battle of life and death that does not require money from the people. If one day everyone in the entire Tang Dynasty is called on to contribute money, it will be a battle of national fortunes. If you lose, the country will be destroyed.
If you want to donate, you can donate to other areas, and it is not compulsory. You should consider your own life first, and then you will be given a certain tax exemption.
”
“Huh?”
Need not?
I, I donated it to the government in Fuzhou, and sent the fish directly to it.
“Chen Xihong began to worry about his own things.
Wu Liuqi glanced at the people on the escort boat, and immediately someone began to send a report, asking where the fish donated by Chen Xihong went.
The two people on the boat 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 turned out to be empty, and the things fell into the sea.
It took almost half an hour to get a call back.
No. 576 took over the translated content and said to Chen Xihong, “They admitted to accepting your fish. The grandson of Wang Haozhi, the governor of Fuzhou Prefecture, went to Zhou Qing and ate forty-three pieces, one per table, braised. The rest of the dried fish has been sent to the baby candy shop, and the baby candy shop has confirmed that the number is correct. Now Wang Haozhi has sent a guilt telegram to the capital, what do you say?”
Chen Xihong was stunned, it sounded very complicated, The fish I donated was used to fight the war. I didn’t expect to be eaten by others and given to another place. I felt very sad.
“Brother Chen, the baby candy house belongs to Xiao Bei and the others.” The boatman who spoke earlier touched Chen Xihong and reminded him.
“Yes, it’s up to Xiaobei Xiaoyuan and the others, so what else is there to do? Just give it away. If the little ancestors can eat the fish that I gave them, I will be happier.”
Chen Xihong just remembered, the baby candy shop Why so familiar.
“And forty-three were eaten?” Wu Qi Liu asked.
“Forty-three were eaten? Just eat, what else can I do?” Chen Xihong thought that there were not many forty-three, so he didn’t think much of it.
“Testimony, if you say who the fish is for, we will deal with it.”
“How to deal with it?”
“Let someone else take charge of Fuzhou first, and Wang Haozhi will go to Beijing to accept the tribunal of the Ministry of Punishment, Dali Temple, and Yushitai. ”
“Three tribunals? Forty-three fish? Forget it, if this is over, Governor Wang will have to peel off his skin even if he doesn’t die, isn’t it serious?”
“Yes, if our Xiaobei and the others follow them casually .”
In the past, Wang Haozhi will be sent to prison directly, and his crime…”
“Immediately add five, don’t you? Don’t, don’t be like this, Wang Haozhi is a really good inspector. He built a large pond at the place where his family lived behind the yamen, and filled it with seawater. We transported the fish back. If
he died, he put people into the pool and sold them for a better price.
He used the money from the difference to hire local craftsmen, and every time our fishing boat went back, he repaired it for us. If there is any leftover, He will contact the local workshop, buy twine and weave nets, and then send us the number of live fish we provide. If
he is caught, the next governor will learn from him? Isn’t it forty-three fish? If I knew his grandson was one year old, what if I gave him a hundred?”
Chen Xihong began to plead for mercy, and the other crew members on the ship were also nervous. They didn’t expect a donation of fish, and only forty-three were eaten. , will easily clean up a prefect.
No wonder the officials of the Tang Dynasty were so afraid of the Zhang and Wang families that they would be injured next to each other and would die if they touched them.
“Xiao Bei’s lethality is too great!” a crew member sighed.
No. 576 has nothing to say about this. Of course, it is very dangerous to be targeted by the little ancestors. It is specially used to deal with officials who have facts but no evidence.
Because evidence can be destroyed, but the facts are clear to everyone. It is a petty crime to judge officials based on evidence, and the people will be dissatisfied when they are sentenced. The little ancestors can make up for this aspect by taking action. No matter how small the crime is plus the fifth grade, it is big enough. .
As for privileges, some people use privileges for themselves, while others are for the people. The privilege of benefiting the people is not a privilege, it is just above the law. A fair and reasonable law refers to a law that the people who enforce the law can enforce without any mistakes, not the law that people who get benefits in the name of the law say.
Since someone can use the law for personal gain, why can’t someone override this law for public gain?
No. 576 knew that some old pedants resented Xiaobei and their privileges, but he felt right. Of course, he didn’t arrest anyone who opposed them. That small group of people just slandered privately in a small circle. If they If you feel that you are right, you can stand on the street and shout, and see what the consequences are.
Thinking like this, No. 576 showed a smile and instructed the people on the escort boat: “Power generation, Wang Haozhi’s crime is very small, but his merit is great. In this year’s evaluation, his crime is down one grade, and his merit is added two grades. , the highest grade will be added to the top.”
The people on the fishing boat were happy, but the dispatcher on the escort boat slanted him and did not make any movement.
No. 576 was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered something like rummaging through the clothes he took off to find a small piece of cloth, and lifted a corner for the other party to see.
The two people on the boat looked at it together, but there was only one pattern on it, a very cute cartoon picture. It was a rice seedling with long legs and a big head. A pigeon with the word ‘secret’ written on it.
Chen Xihong’s eyes widened instantly: “Three… the spies from the Zhang and Wang families in Sanshui County? Sure enough, they are chasing the wind and chasing shadows. Hide it.”
One of Chen Xihong’s crew members also said happily: “But no, I heard that people in the previous dynasties were bad people, why didn’t I find Xiaobao of Datang and the spies of the cuckoo family? It’s broken? It’s just that this picture makes people look too sad, why should you point the gun at yourself?”
“For you, there is nothing to keep secret, let him see what you have.” said the man next to the telegraph.
The man took out a pistol and a grenade, and said
, “Pistols are used to commit suicide, and grenades are used to blow up the radio station. If I am surrounded by enemies, and I can’t escape after blowing up the radio station, I will commit suicide.”
The request of No. 6 generates electricity.
When the people on the fishing boat listened to the ticking sound, their hearts surged for a while. It turned out that their stable life was guarded by someone secretly guarding them with their lives.
When the sound of the telegram stopped, Chen Xihong said, “I have an idea that I can get more things from the sea in Great Tang, and it can also provide direct help for the guards.”
