"Paozi, Paozi, what are you thinking?"

A round, happy old face came over and asked with concern. Zhu Hesheng realized that he was distracted by his thoughts. The wine glass he held was crooked, and the wine dripping dripping on the table, he himself didn't know. The whole house of Danan Mountain and the old people in Guiyu were half open to look at him as he looked at him stupid.

Among them is one of Dabo's aunts with a look of worry...

Zhu Hesheng and the others arrived outside the capital of Guiyu this morning. After arriving, they were warmly entertained by Mr. Yu. They first served breakfast and basin of hot water for each person to take a bath. Then they waited for everyone to sleep for a morning and after they were well prepared, they put wine in Yu's house to suppress their shock.

I also made a promise - I don’t have to be afraid when I arrive at Guiyu. Guiyu is as solid as a god, and I am not afraid of Qing soldiers coming to ask for people.

This Guiyu was the headquarters of the Ming army's inspection department during the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, so the city wall had been built long ago and was reinforced several times later, which was very reliable.

Later, when the Ming Dynasty fell, the Ming Dynasty officers and soldiers stationed in Guiyu Capital all ran away. The local powerful old man Yu saw that the city was pretty good and was empty, so he brought his tribe members to move in.

Because the Yu family in Guiyu Capital was quite small, and during the Ming Dynasty, they often fought with their neighbors around them and had certain military experience. Therefore, after occupying the capital of Guiyu, the Yu family became a tyrant who dominated the country.

However, Mr. Yu was a scholar, and he was not particularly good at killing and setting fires. Therefore, the Yu family in Guiyu has been able to gain a foothold between the Ming and Qing dynasties in recent years, and it is not entirely because of how capable the Yu family is, but because Mr. Yu is soft enough.

He was the county magistrate of Emperor Shaowu of the Southern Ming Dynasty. After a few days of work, Li Chengdong came over. So he surrendered to the Qing Dynasty and became the county magistrate of the Qing Dynasty.

When Li Chengdong rebeled from the Qing Dynasty, he defected to the Ming Dynasty again and became the county magistrate.

Li Chengdong was defeated, and the Qing soldiers rushed into Guangdong again. Zheng Chenggong also took the opportunity to send troops to Chaozhou and attack Jieyang. At this time, Mr. Yu surrendered to Zheng Ming and the Qing Dynasty at the same time, and became the county magistrate of two dynasties.

Later, Zheng Chenggong left, and Hao Shangjiu, the general of the Qing army in Chaozhou, opposed the Qing Dynasty, so Mr. Yu became Hao Shangjiu's county magistrate again, the county magistrate of the Qing Dynasty and Zheng Ming's county magistrate no longer.

After Hao Shangjiu collapsed, Mr. Yu became the magistrate of Jieyang County in the Qing Dynasty.

In the ninth year of Kangxi, Qiu Hui officially joined the Zheng Ming Group and became the magistrate of Chaozhou. Therefore, Mr. Yu, who had long been dependent on Qiu Hui, also served as the magistrate of Jieyang County of Zheng Ming.

The above are already the "Eight Ministers"!

A scholar who reads the books of sages actually became the "eight ministers", and there is no one else.

And he was not ashamed, but proud, and even gave himself a name, called "Nine Ministers". This means that the "Eight Ministers" are not satisfied. They are just county magistrates and county magistrates, and they are not recognized by talent! So at such a young age, they still want to meet the wise master again...

However, Mr. Yu would never think of the wise master who he had been thinking about day and night, now sitting beside him thinking about his thoughts!

The Mingzhu only had one thought, and that was to let Mr. Yu get on his own, Grandpa Zhu Sansun’s pirate ship!

Grandson Zhu San!

Oh, there is also a third prince Zhu who looks like Guan Gong!

It is one thing to ask Mr. Yu to protect a group of bandits on the Danan Mountain, and it is another thing to ask him to protect Prince Zhu San, and Prince Zhu San!

To protect the third prince of Zhu and the third grandson of Zhu, you have to fight against the Qing Dynasty. Deng Guangming will send troops to attack Guiyu Capital.

So... Zhu Hesheng thought to himself: "I've got the ultimate move!"

"Master Qi," Thinking of this, Zhu Hesheng simply put down his wine glass and asked his godfather with a smile on his face, "Do you have fire here?"

"Huo X?" Mr. Yu nodded, "There are some... I got more than a dozen kilograms from Dahao's boss Hui a while ago. They are all top-notch Huo X produced by the London House of Britain."

In Chaozhou, fire X and gunpowder are very difficult to obtain! Whether it is the Chaozhou Prefecture of the Qing Dynasty or the Dahao Qiu Hui, they all control the sales of fire X and gunpowder. It would be a huge face for Mr. Yu to get some Indian fire X trafficked by the British East India Company from Qiu Hui.

Mr. Yu thought Zhu Hesheng wanted to ask him for some heat. After thinking about it, he said with a painful look on his face: "A Paozi, let me ask you to weigh three pounds in the face!"

This godfather is so generous!

Zhu Hesheng smiled and said, "Then thank you Mr. Qi!" He paused and asked again, "Mr. Qi, do you have sugar here?"

"White sugar?" Old Master Yu was stunned, "What do you want white sugar?"

"Yes, Huozai, what do you want sugar?" Zhu Jushan also asked.

"Of course... I ate it!" Zhu Hesheng replied seriously, "Master Qi, Dad, I like eating candy!"

Do you like eating candy? How old are you? Still eating candy?

Zhu Jushan and Mr. Yu didn't know what to say.

At this time, Aunt Dabo felt sorry for "Paoer" and asked Mr. Yu: "Brother Jiuchen, I also want to eat candy. Can you give me some?"

"Yes, of course it can!" Mr. Yu certainly could not refuse Daboling... He asked with a smile, "Miss Yuling, how much do you want?"

"Two pounds!" Zhu Hesheng spoke for his aunt, "Two pounds of sugar...is there any?"

"Two pounds?" Mr. Yu thought to himself: "Eat so much...isn't it choking?"

"Yes, two pounds!" This aunt of Dabo seemed to be very fond of "Paoer", so she didn't care whether she would eat too much sugar or not!

"Yes, yes..." Old Master Yu nodded repeatedly.

Zhu Hesheng laughed, "Master Qi, three pounds of fire X, can you give me two pounds of sugar immediately? I still want to have a copper pot, if I don't have one, I'll give it a stone mill."

What's the meaning?

Mr. Yu was stunned. Do you want to prepare gunpowder? But he didn't want sulfur and charcoal powder! Did he want to boil two pounds of sugar and three pounds of fire X together as a snack?

Will it be poisoned?

Thinking of this, Mr. Yu quickly turned his head to look at Zhu Jushan - What's wrong with your son? Did he be beaten by Xue Zhang and Deng Guangming's people? Should I find a doctor to treat it?

Zhu Jushan also frowned and looked depressed. Just as he was thinking about whether to ask Military Advisor Zhuge to take his son's pulse and prescribe a few sets of medicine, a burst of rapid footsteps came from outside the lobby.

Then I saw a young man with beautiful eyes and a little short step in quickly, walked to Mr. Yu, bowed, and said nervously: "Dad, Deng Guangming brought one or two hundred cavalry outside the north gate! He was so aggressive that he even said he wanted to go into the city to search..."

"What?" Old Master Yu was stunned, then looked at Zhu Jushan and Zhu Hesheng, "Third brother, Qi Zai, what have you done?"

"We did nothing!" Zhu Hesheng looked calm and composed, "Master Qi, we did not kill officials, two did not pull the flag, three did not destroy the prefecture and occupy the county."

Mr. Yu glanced at Zhu Jushan again, and the king of heaven Zhu said, "Yes, we didn't do anything... we just robbed a prisoner and killed some yamen soldiers."

"What's this in Chaozhou?" Mr. Yu felt relieved and stood up and said, "I'll deal with it, and then go back!"

Zhu Jushan was not relieved, so he stood up and said to the old man: "Brother Jiuchen, I will take a look with you."

"Okay, let's go and have a look!" Old Master Yu glanced at Zhu Hesheng again.

Zhu Hesheng smiled and said, "Mr. Qi, you promised my fire X, sugar and copper pot..."

Aunt Dabo, who was beside him, also looked at Mr. Yu and said in a very soft voice: "Brother Jiuchen..."

"Okay," Mr. Yu said to the short young man, "Son-in-law, go and get three pounds of fire X, two pounds of white sugar, and a copper pot, and send it to the Zhu family house."

The young man responded and turned around and left the door.

Mr. Yu said to Zhu Hesheng again: "Qizi, go back and rest earlier. I will deal with Deng Guangming's side." He was a little worried, and said to Zhuge Sanhe and Daboling, "Mistress Yuling, Sanhezi, you take care of the cannon Zhu."

His meaning is very clear... He has a hot and sugary one, just play with it, don't eat it!

After giving the order, Mr. Yu and Zhu Jushan left the lobby of the banquet and headed towards the north gate of Guiyu Capital.

The area of ​​Guiyu Capital is not large. Mr. Yu and Zhu Jushan left the Yu family compound together. After walking for a while, they climbed the city tower at the north gate of Guiyu Capital. Outside the north gate of Guiyu Capital is a tributary of Lianjiang River, which is regarded as a natural moat. The suspension bridge built on the river has been closed, blocking Deng Guangming and one or two hundred cavalry on the other side.
