Chapter 33: Celebration

As soon as the bad blood between Huang Chen and Wang Bin was settled, the pirate leaders said goodbye and left. Before leaving, the eyes they looked at Wang Bin showed sympathy. Wang Bin fell too hard today and was fingered in the nose by a young boy.

He cursed and was pointed at by a gun, but it was unreasonable and he could not get angry. His reputation was ruined in one day. It was conceivable that in a few days he would become the laughing stock of the thieves in Dachen Mountain. And Huang Chen was originally unknown.

The young generation will surely be known to everyone.

The sympathetic eyes of everyone were like sharp knives cutting into his body. At this moment, Wang Bin wanted to jump into the sea and hide, so he resented Huang Chen even more. The jade in his hand was crushed to pieces. The humiliation he suffered today must be punished by Huang Chen.

Only Chen's blood can wash it away.

Huang Chen didn't care about Wang Bin's resentment at all, and spread his hands as before to express his attitude.

Wang Bin left with a livid face. Hu Erlao's old chrysanthemum face bloomed slightly and said to Huang Chen: "Young people are scary! When you got the eight-oared boat a while ago, I was a little worried, fearing that you were too young and couldn't control it. I didn't expect that after all,

I underestimated you! Not only did you manage your subordinates obediently, but you also won a large sailing ship in this battle. Is there really a genius in the world? We all couldn't help but sigh. "The eight-oared boat is a rowing boat.

, unable to independently perform tasks and operations, and can only rely on large ships to operate. Therefore, although Huang Chen was the master of a ship before, he was still subordinate to Hu Erlao. Now that he has obtained a two-masted sailboat, he can stand on his own like Wang Fengwu.

And how could Mr. Hu not be deeply moved by the fact that there are four village leaders? Such a young figure?

Yimu Lao also said that the future life is to be feared.

"Uncle, the Second Master praised me too much and I deserve it." Huang Chen restrained his arrogance and said humbly: "If Brother Wu hadn't sent brothers Chen Si and Chen Wu to assist me, I might not even be able to sail out of the port.

My achievements today are all due to the help of Brother Wu."

"..." Mr. Yi and Mr. Hu looked at each other. How arrogant and arrogant this man was just now made Wang Bin, the leader of the party, lose face. At this time, he returned to his usual humble and cautious appearance. The two of them really couldn't figure out what happened.

Which side is the real him?

Wang Fengwu laughed and said: "Brother Huang, please don't try to put gold in my face anymore. Chen Si, Chen Wuyan and Brother Huang are all convinced. There is no adulteration at all. They all say that you are a young hero and have a bright future."

There is no limit, they are willing to sacrifice their lives for you."

Yimu Lao said with a smile: "What brother Wu said is true. It is your credit that is yours. There is no need to be humble. You have lost the style of a man on the sea." Yimu Lao finally teased Huang Chen jokingly and said: "You just did it just now.

Very good."

Everyone laughed when they heard this.

Huang Chen then took Zhang Xing, Yang Dong and other cronies back to his big sailing ship. Yang Dong was extremely excited and told everyone about what happened on the Big Bird ship. He especially focused on describing how he pointed a gun at Wang Bin and claimed the title of king.

Bin did not live up to his name, and he almost made him wet his pants. Yang Dong was always very eloquent, and everyone in the group kept erupting in exclamations.

Zhao Hongyi did not go with Huang Chen, but stayed on the ship to coordinate everything. After hearing this, he felt slightly worried. Wang Bin was a pirate leader with hundreds of sons no matter what. How could he let it go after losing such a big face? But it was a matter of course.

At this point, there is no point in worrying, as long as the soldiers come to block the water and cover it up with the earth. Since switching to Huang Chen, Zhao Hongyi has obviously become more courageous than before.

"Brother Zhao, are the statistics ready?"

Hearing Huang Chen's question, Zhao Hongyi nodded and replied: "It's almost done. The hull was burned in a few places, but fortunately no muscles or bones were injured. It can be repaired with some money and then it can go to sea. There is a copper door on the ship, and three large and small wolf machines.

The door and the three Baizi cannons are all intact, but there is not much gunpowder left. In addition, there are some fire bricks, cupping pots and other items. Not much silver has been recovered, and the total is thirty taels. "….

Huang Chen asked again: "Where are the people?"

"Zheng Quan originally had seven people, captured fishermen and converted to eleven people, and fished into the water, and seven people were pirates, making a total of twenty-five people."

Huang Chen nodded. He originally had eighteen men, plus twenty-five newcomers, breaking through the forty mark to reach forty-three. But this is not enough. One sail and one oar have to satisfy two big ships.

The number of people needed must at least double again.

Zhao Hongyi continued: "In this battle, we won an eight-foot-long ship, several cannons, a contract of three hundred taels, and a 20% bonus..."

"I understand." Huang Chen nodded again.

When the pirate coalition fleet returned, three sentry ships suddenly appeared in the southwest. Judging from the flags, they were undoubtedly Lin Qilao's ships. The atmosphere was very tense for a time. However, Lin Qilao's fleet was not seen until the fleet left the waters of Shangdachen.

It seems that Lin Qilao suffered a big loss at the hands of the officers and soldiers not long ago, so much so that he even pretended not to see someone break into his backyard and pick flowers openly. This was unimaginable in the past. Yimu Lao, Hu

The two elders looked at each other and laughed, feeling an indescribable joy in their hearts.

A group of more than thirty large ships sailed on the sea in a ostentatious manner, attracting attention from both sides of the fishermen and pirates. The fleet finally arrived at the market port, causing a sensation in the city. Compared with the happy merchants, the thieves were worried, because they were afraid that Yi Mianlao would consolidate his strength.

He is plotting to dominate. The Dachen Sea Territory is such a big place, and now there are already two overlords, Zhou Lao and Lin Qi Lao. Can there be room for a third one?

"Dachen Mountain has entered a troubled period from now on!" Someone expressed everyone's feelings.

In the evening of that day, Yimu Lao bought most of the brothels in the market with a large sum of money and rewarded everyone. He entertained the big and small leaders at the most famous gold selling den in the city. Huang Chen was not interested in prostitution, so he and Hu Erlao, Wang Fengwu and others

Half-drunk, he excused himself from feeling unwell and returned to the inn to rest. Others partyed all night long, and there were many who never returned home.

In the afternoon, He Sheng came to the market as promised with 1,500 taels of silver. On the issue of dividing the silver, He Sheng took the 600 taels for himself, and the remaining three families each received 300 taels. This division cannot be said to be fair.

, but Ichimoku Lao did contribute a lot, and it was quite reasonable for everyone from Yuanmai that he only received two pieces of silver. No matter what everyone felt in their hearts, at least on the surface everyone was happy.

Then Yimu Lao summoned his ship owners to divide the silver. Huang Chen received no more than sixty taels of silver. In fact, based on the results he had achieved, he should have been given a few more silver taels. Unfortunately, his qualifications were too low and he was deliberately ignored. Huang Chen was not angry.

Ichimoku was not targeting him. Pirates have always had a tradition of judging seniority, and besides, 12 or 80 taels of silver was of no concern to him now.

Huang Chen changed hands and spread the 60 taels of silver as war dividends without leaving any money. Except for Zhao Hongyi and Zhang Xing, only a few people carefully collected them in their arms and planned to take them home. Everyone else took the money and went out in a dignified manner.

Huang Chen teased Zhao Hongyi: "Brother Zhao, do you want to hand over your money to your sister-in-law? My sister-in-law is such a gentle and amiable person, could it be that she is a lion roaring from Hedong?"

Zhao Hongyi smiled and waved his hands and said: "It is not easy for a woman to run a house, she should take care of the money."

Huang Chen said with a smile: "The first time I went to your house, I found that my sister-in-law was dressed in colorful clothes and had a gold hairpin on her head, but Brother Zhao, your clothes are not as good as those of ordinary fishermen, and you are living in poverty. Don't treat yourself too badly in everything, you are so big and small now

As the owner of a ship, he must have one or two sets of decent clothes to avoid being looked down upon by others." Huang Chen turned to Zhang Xing and said, "And you. No matter how short of money the family has, they will still be short of a few bucks."

The two of them did not dare to go against Huang Chen's wishes and went to the street together to buy clothes.

In order to repair the ship and recruit helpers, Huang Chen expected to stay in the market for a while, so he took the time to return to the village. First, he reported to Zhang and the dumb sister that they were safe, and second, he arranged a place for the new couple. When Yimu Lao first came to Dachen Mountain

There is a lot of manpower, so the village is not short of houses, and there are many empty houses that can be moved in with a simple cleaning. After finishing the work, Huang Chen was ready to return to the market, so he suggested that Mr. Zhang and his dumb sister go to the market with him for a few days.

It was really boring for the two of them to stay at home all day, so they agreed without much thought.

Dachen Market has never been a peaceful place. Ninety-nine percent of the women who appear here are prostitutes, so Huang Chen accompanied Zhang and the mute girl on the streets as much as possible. If he couldn't spare the time, he sent his men to follow them every step of the way. However,

No matter how carefully Huang Chen did it, he couldn't stop the mute girl from attracting bees and butterflies. In the past few days, troubles continued. The most intense incident was when Huang Chen was furious and shot a pirate in the street who was trying to molest the mute girl. This triggered a fierce conflict between the two parties, and the streets were filled with swords and swords.

, there was constant gunfire, dozens of people were killed and injured, and the whole city was in terror.

Afterwards, Mrs. Zhang was still frightened and did not want to cause trouble for her son anymore, so she insisted on going home. After Huang Chen sent the two people away, his eyes were scarlet red with anger, and he immediately led all his troops to find the leader of the pirate group, but he was in vain.

Hearing the wind, he ran away and disappeared.

Huang Chen had nowhere to vent his anger, so his crew members became his punching bag. The training was extremely harsh and everyone complained endlessly. As time passed day by day, Yimu Lao, Hu Erlao, Wang Fengwu and others successively recruited people and left the market.

Huang Chen's reputation, qualifications, and capital were far inferior to them. It took him five or six more days to recruit forty people.
