Chapter 87 The transaction begins
Dongjiang
As night fell, Mao Wenlong was wearing an armor and holding a sword in his hand. He walked out of the house and saw the fully armed army. He nodded to the two generals beside him, got on his horse and walked towards the direction of Pi Island.
When the people on the street saw this scene, they were all whispering. Mao Wenlong was not worried about being exposed. He had already posted a notice that he was going out of the city to suppress the bandits, and used this as an excuse to take his troops out of the city.
They also set up open and hidden sentries along the way, and did not encounter any obstruction along the way. When they arrived near Pi Island, Mao Wenlong saw Yan Ning and Zhao Chengchu appearing in person, with figures in the woods behind them.
Mao Wenlong immediately greeted her and said enthusiastically: "Miss Yan, I haven't seen you for a long time."
"Master Mao, you're fine!" Yan Ning bowed and saluted.
The two of them had smiles on their faces, but Mao Wenlong secretly looked at the figures in the woods and found that all the people he left behind seemed to be missing, but he did not get angry, but said: "Let's start the transaction!"
Yan Ning nodded and said, "Master Mao, come with me!"
Mao Wenlong led everyone away, and Yan Ning didn't say anything.
Entering Pi Island, Mao Wenlong looked at the military tents set up everywhere. His eyes changed slightly. He estimated for a moment that there were thousands of people. He knew that Yan Ning was trying to beat him.
But he was not an idle person, and his expression remained as usual. When Yan Ning moved the supplies out, Mao Wenlong's eyes were full of fire.
Yan Ning looked at Mao Wenlong, who immediately ordered: "Bring it up!"
Seeing hundreds of people carrying large boxes, opening the boxes full of dazzling snowflake silver, Yan Ning picked up a piece of silver, weighed it and said, "Master Mao can take these goods away."
"etc!"
Yan Ning looked at Mao Wenlong quietly, and the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became anxious.
"Master Mao, is there anything else?" Yan Ning spoke first.
Mao Wenlong waved his hand and his subordinates carried three more large boxes. Yan Ning was a little confused: "Master Mao, what does this mean?"
"I want to borrow Miss Yan's boat. This is the cost of renting the boat." Mao Wenlong said with a smile on his face.
Yan Ning took a look at the silver in the box and said with a smile: "Master Mao is generous, I have done this business!"
Mao Wenlong immediately ordered his subordinates to start loading things onto the ship. Mao Wenlong looked at Yan Ning, who was operating in Pidao, and said: "Miss Yan is very capable, I admire you. Now it is not an exaggeration to say that Pidao belongs to Miss Yan."
".
"Master Mao, this is ridiculous." Yan Ning ordered people to collect the silver into the manor.
After watching the boat leave along the sea water, Mao Wenlong turned around to say goodbye and said: "Miss Yan, I wonder where my brothers are?"
"Master Mao, don't worry. They have all left Pidao," Yan Ning said.
"In that case, I'll take my leave!"
"Master Mao, walk slowly!"
It wasn't until Mao Wenlong left Pidao that he received the news that the people he had left to monitor around Pidao had been sent back outside the city.
"A bunch of losers!" Mao Wenlong said angrily.
Shang Kexi on the side said: "Sir, now that we have got the things, how about we?"
As he spoke, he made a gesture of wiping his neck.
Mao Wenlong pondered for a moment and said: "It's not urgent, we have more important things to do."
Geng Zhongming, who was in charge of escorting the cargo on the ship, looked worried as he walked along the seaport to the sea, and then turned the ship towards the territory of South Korea.
Geng Zhongming came to the deck and said to the sergeants: "We must be strictly vigilant. Japanese pirates are rampant now. If we are entangled by them at sea, we will be in trouble."
"yes!"
But a ship slowly appeared on the dark sea and approached the big ship like a ghost.
Geng Zhongming, who was resting, suddenly heard a commotion, stood up immediately, walked out of the cabin and asked: "What's going on?"
"General, Japanese pirates!"
After hearing the report from his subordinates, Geng Zhongming saw the fleet on the sea.
"You must not let them get close to me. Kill them!"
Suddenly there was a loud sound of gunfire, mixed with feathers and arrows, and they were thrown at the fleet on the sea. However, the Japanese pirates refused to give up and stared at the gunfire and arrows to kill the fleet.
When Geng Zhongming saw the rope flying out of the Japanese pirate ship, he felt something bad and immediately asked someone to cut it off.
But after all, he was still a step slower. With the help of the rope, the distance between the two was immediately shortened, and the Japanese pirate began to climb up from Chuanxuan.
Geng Zhongming looked in his eyes, anxious in his heart, and led everyone to resist with all their strength while retreating while fighting.
But many Japanese pirates were still allowed to board the ship. Looking at the Japanese pirates killing wantonly on the ship, Geng Zhongming's eyes were burning and he said angrily: "These sons of bitches, I will kill them sooner or later!"
"Sir, what should we do now?"
Geng Zhongming looked at the two large ships that had been occupied and said coldly: "If you don't want us to have an easy time, then don't take any of them!"
"Blast them into those two ships for me!"
"General, here!"
The sergeant hesitated a little. Geng Zhongming looked at the Ming army that had all been killed and said, "Just do this. If anything happens, I will take care of it."
Hearing this, the sergeants under his command fired flaming arrows into the cabin, and soon a fire broke out. The Japanese pirates on the boat were ignited by the sparks, and they struggled to jump into the water with their bodies covered in flames.
Geng Zhongming did not intend to let those diving people go and immediately ordered everyone to shoot them.
As the fire increased, the gunpowder buried in the bottom of the ship was ignited. After two loud noises, the charred ship slowly sank to the bottom of the water.
The action also frightened the group of Japanese pirates, so that they did not dare to pursue them recklessly.
"Let's go!" Geng Zhongming ordered.
Then everyone drove the boat and disappeared into the vast night.
Yulin
Yang Tao in the government office looked a little anxious, a little uneasy standing, and his whole face looked a little haggard.
"Madam, just take a rest. It's almost time to give birth, so you'd better practice well!"
Yang Tao turned a deaf ear and often looked outside the government office. Ever since Qin Liangyu led his army to leave, she was escorted back to Yulin by the rebel army. After receiving Liu Jiusi's letter, she often looked forward to an early reunion with her husband-in-law.
But six or seven days passed and still no sign of Liu Jiusi was seen.
At this time, a figure walked in.
"What are you doing?" Liu Jiusi looked at Yang Tao who was fidgeting and immediately helped her up.
Yang Tao saw Liu Jiusi crying and said, "You are finally back!"
Liu Jiusi helped him back into the house and said as he walked, "You have suffered a lot along the way."
"If you don't come back, this child will be born and he will ask me for his father. Where can I find him?" Yang Tao said with a hint of complaint.
"Isn't this a last resort?" Liu Jiusi said with a smile.
The two expressed their love for each other.
