Ding Yunyi was frowning there, but Zhang Xianxuan seemed to see Mr. Ding's embarrassment.
As soon as he arrived in Penghu, he heard that most of the money in Boss Ding's hands had been taken away by Cai Jiuzhou to buy new ships. The current economic situation was very bad.
At this time, I asked Mr. Ding to get the Folang machine gun. Although he said it casually, it was a bit too much.
"It would be great if we were pirates. If we don't have money, just go and rob it." Zhang Xianxuan muttered, as if he had returned to his pirate days.
"What did you say?" Ding Yunyi asked immediately.
Zhang Xianxuan was a little embarrassed: "Mr. Ding, I was joking."
"No, no." Ding Yunyi frowned: "The pirates can steal it, why can't I?"
"ah!"
Qin Yun had heard what Mr. Ding said, but Zhang Xianxuan was stunned with his mouth wide open.
The pirates can steal it, why can't I?
If you hadn't heard it with your own ears, it would be hard to believe that this sentence came from the mouth of an official from the Ming Dynasty.
"Zhang Baichang." Ding Yunyi called Zhang Xianxuan to his side: "How do you usually plunder the sea? Tell me carefully."
Only then did Zhang Xianxuan realize that Mr. Ding was not joking, so he calmed down and said: "Little pirates like us can only plunder ships with weak protection. Usually, they will first send people to various ports to inquire about the movements.
Is there a suitable target? After identifying the target, you need to figure out its navigation route and then find the best robbery location. This robbery location is also very particular. It must be far away from the port and suitable for escaping after the robbery.
....”
He spoke very carefully, and Ding Yunyi also listened very carefully. When he encountered something he didn't understand, he would also ask questions.
After listening to everything, Ding Yunyi said fiercely: "Fuck! Damn it, pirates can steal a lot of money, can't I, as the Ming Dynasty's commander-in-chief, just drink the northwest wind?"
Qin Yun smiled and shook his head, but Zhang Xianxuan was in high spirits.
This boss takes his interests seriously and does what he says. He is not as corrupt as other officials. He was originally a pirate, and being a pirate is his profession. Now that he is following this boss, he will definitely not be hungry in the future.
.
If you do well, you can rise to prominence and become a serious official of the Ming Dynasty. If you do poorly, you can become a pirate again.
Ding Yunyi thought for a moment: "Zhang Baichang, you are responsible for sending people to various ports to inquire about information to see if there are any merchant ships going to sea recently. Remember, if you want to find a way to find foreign ships, it is best to find out in Taiwan whether there are any Hongyi ships that will be shipped in the near future.
We pirates are different from other pirates. Stealing my Ming Dynasty's ships will not show our prestige. Only the ships of the Hongyi people are the upright heroes. Even if there is no news in the future,
It will be glorious even if it is spread out tightly."
"Don't worry, Boss, I'm the best at this business. There will be news within two days!" Zhang Xianxuan said happily.
Qin Yun smiled: "Follow the boss, and in the future you will either have a prosperous career with unlimited future, or you will be killed."
"I think it's more likely that someone will die." Ding Yunyi laughed bitterly.
"I can't care about that. Even if someone's head falls to the ground, I will feel happy if I follow the boss!" Zhang Xianxuan patted his chest and said: "But if I work for the boss for a day, I will follow him for a day. If the boss is beheaded, all the brothers will do it.
We’re just going to die together.”
Ding Yunyi was both funny and touched.
Although Zhang Xianxuan's words were unlucky, they were sincere.
The three people discussed carefully what to do, and Ding Yunyi repeatedly told him that he must hide this matter from Hong Tiaoyuan. Firstly, they now have doubts about Hong Tiaoyuan's identity, and secondly, given Hong Tiaoyuan's character, after knowing
I will inevitably have to worry again and refuse again and again.
"Brother Ding, Brother Ding." Ah Hu shouted and ran over excitedly: "Brother Ding, my sister asked you to come home for dinner."
Qin Yun made an excuse to leave, and Zhang Xianxuan also cupped his hands and said: "Boss, I'll go and get things done first."
"It's time to work."
Ding Yunyi returned the gift, then walked towards his house with A Hu, and asked casually: "Why does your sister want to invite me to dinner today?"
"I missed you." Ah Hu wiped his nose and said smoothly. As soon as the words came out, he quickly stuck out his tongue. Remembering that his sister had repeatedly warned him not to talk nonsense, he quickly said: "My sister wants to thank Brother Ding for taking me in."
In the army, my sister also said that Brother Ding has been practicing day and night with the brothers for the past few days. He has worked hard, so he made some dishes for you to eat."
Ding Yunyi smiled but said nothing.
Before he reached the door of his house, he smelled a scent from afar. Ding Yunyi sniffed: "It smells so good. What is this?"
Ah Hu said proudly: "I caught a pheasant early in the morning. This is the rarest thing in Penghu, and it is rare to see it."
"Boss Ding, are you here for dinner?"
Bangzi's father's home is right next to Axi's and his brother's home. When he saw Ding Yunyi from afar, he said hello.
"Hey, that's right." Ding Yunyi said with a smile: "Why are you the only one? Where is Bangzi Niang?"
"The old woman went to her elder sister's house and hasn't come back yet."
"How about eating together?"
This was originally a polite word from Ding Yunyi, and anyone else would definitely not agree to it, but who would have thought that Bangzi's dad didn't know what was wrong in his head, and actually responded: "Okay, I have long wanted to drink with Mr. Ding, and today
The old lady is not here, just in time. I'll go get a jar of wine, it's really good wine."
Bangzi's father happily turned around and went in to get the wine. Ding Yunyi didn't think anything of it, but Ah Hu looked unhappy. He pushed the door open and walked in angrily.
"Brother Ding, here we come." Ah Xi, who was just preparing the dishes, saw Ding Yunyi and said hello as if he were one of his own family members. Then he saw his younger brother in the blink of an eye and said, "Ah Hu, what's wrong?"
Ah Hu said with a straight face: "Brother Ding from next door politely asked him to have dinner together, but who would have thought that he would take it seriously."
Ah Xi was startled, and then thought that the person next door was talking about Bangzi Daddy. Today, the siblings and Brother Ding were originally having dinner together, but who would have thought that Bangzi Daddy would also join in. Although she felt a little unhappy in her heart, Ah Xi said reproachfully: "
Speaking of which, Dad Bangzi is also a relative of ours. Why can’t it be okay if relatives come to our house for a meal? How can he look so straight to others? "
"Yes, Ah Hu." Ding Yunyi found a place to sit down by himself: "We men must be generous and measured. If you follow your brother Ding, you must not be a stingy person."
Hearing Brother Ding say the same thing, Ah Hu's stern face relaxed.
Dad Bangzi walked in excitedly. The old man who couldn't tell the situation came straight in with a bunch of wine in his hand:
"Boss Ding, today is a rare opportunity. We need to get drunk together."
