Chapter 534: Dead
Li Guangtou gave the porter another big slap when he entered the door, but the poor porter was slapped on the left side of his face yesterday and the swelling had not subsided, and now he was slapped again on the right cheek, and he was red and swollen when he landed, but the two sides were symmetrical, and his eyes were so squinted that there were only two slits left.
Li bald his head and slapped the porter, with a gloomy face and a fierce expression, he strode towards the West Cross Courtyard, and Hosokawa Takeshu and other Japanese people borrowed the West Cross Courtyard to live.
Not long ago, Shi Haoran, the salt transport envoy of Yangzhou, called the capital of the Jin merchants, the Hui merchants, and the Fujian merchants, and the three major merchant gangs, to reprimand him, and asked who sent someone to kidnap Wang Cuiqiao. Wang Cuiqiao is a representative of the Hui merchants, so naturally it will not be the Hui merchants themselves, so the Jin merchants and Fujian merchants are the most suspicious.
Of course, neither the Jin merchants nor the Min merchants will admit that they did it, and the first Zhang Yunling of the Jin Chamber of Commerce also pointed to the sky and made a poisonous oath, stating that whoever did it would kill the whole family, and Li Guangtou had to pinch his nose and make a more poisonous oath, after all, this matter cannot be admitted if he is killed.
In the end, Shi Haoran, the salt transport envoy, sternly warned the leaders of the three major merchant gangs, if anyone dares to break the rules again, he will not want to get the salt guide again in the next three years, and especially named Li Guangtou's name, this product has a criminal record, he used to be a salt lord, although he spent money to wash his white, but no one in the circle knows his details.
Because of this, after Li Guangtou came out of the salt transport division, he returned to his residence in a rage, ready to settle accounts with Hosokawa Takeshu, a Japanese national. The widow who has more than enough success and more than failure, you are a special captive and forget it, and in the end it is still a failure, even if you fail, you still meet the Qincha, you immortals are boarded!
As soon as Li Guangtou stepped into the West Cross Courtyard with his front feet, a Japanese warrior blocked the way, and Li Guangtou raised his hand to slap a big ear scrape, shouting: "Get out!" ”
The samurai of the Japanese Kingdom was staggered on the spot, blood came out of the corners of his mouth, and he couldn't help but curse angrily, and then held the handle of the samurai sword with both hands.
"Why, looking for death, right?" The bodyguards behind Li Guangtou drew their waist knives one after another, grinning around them, and some even put the knife on the neck of the Japanese warrior, who did not dare to move.
Li Guangtou was a salt lord in the past, and now he is also engaged in the business of sea smuggling trade, how can he not have a group of fierce outlaws under his hand to escort him, otherwise he would not be able to live until now.
"Damn, playing tricks on Lao Tzu's land, it's too long!" Li Guangtou slapped the Japanese warrior in the face with great insults, and then strode into the house, only to hear the sound of ghosts crying wolves from inside as soon as he approached the door.
"Brother, don't die...... Ahh ”
"Yoshimura!"
"Hey, that Haruyo Yoshimura is dead?" Li Guangtou frowned, he was in the sea smuggling business, and he often dealt with Japanese people, so he could understand some Japanese language.
Li Guangtou walked into the house, only to see that the Japanese samurai named Yoshimura Haruyo was really lying on the ground, his upper body was naked, and there was a blood-red palm print on his back.
Li Guangtou recognized this guy who was crying in the corpse was the younger brother of the deceased Yoshimura Haruyo, Yoshimura Tomiyo.
Hosokawa Takeshu glanced at Li Guangtou and arched his hand: "Li Yuan is outside!" ”
"This ...... He's dead? Li Guangtou pointed to the corpse of Harumura Haruyo and asked, this rude act immediately attracted the angry eyes of the other Japanese samurai.
Li Guangtou didn't think so, on his own land, the dragon had to be coiled, the tiger had to lie down, not to mention a group of Japanese people who had no legal identity.
Hosokawa Takeshu held back his breath and nodded: "Yoshimura sacrificed, there are masters around that Qincha, Yoshimura is not his opponent, he was slapped, and his internal organs were shattered." ”
It is said that the one who kidnapped Wang Cuiqiao in Daming Temple today is the dead Japanese samurai Yoshimura Haruyo, this person is a ninja, good at concealing the trick, originally planned to disguise himself as a monk in the temple, and defiled Wang Cuiqiao's innocence somewhere in the temple, and then let the pilgrims find out, so as to achieve the purpose of ruining Wang Cuiqiao's reputation.
Who knew that Yoshimura Haruyo was stopped by Xie Erjian and Pujing monk who arrived before he had time to commit adultery, and under the fierce battle, Harumura Yoshiyo was hit by Xie Erjian with a red yang palm, although he finally escaped with hidden arts, but due to his serious injuries, coupled with being searched by the officials, he hid in the Surabaya River for most of the day, resulting in aggravated injuries. When Hosokawa Takeshu and the others found him, he was already dying, and soon after returning to his residence in the city, he died.
Li Guangtou stroked his big bald head and scolded: "A group of waste, Wushu, your special head was kicked by a donkey, right, I know that Qin Cha still dares to send someone to do it in Daming Temple, if Qin Cha has a mistake, wouldn't it be a burden to Lao Tzu." Grass your uncle, don't be smart in the future, so that Lao Tzu was scolded by Shi Haoran's fat pig today. ”
A hint of coldness flashed in Hosokawa Takeshu's eyes, but he was under the eaves, so he could only swallow his anger and say: "I'm sorry for causing trouble to Li Yuanwai, I promise that this kind of thing will not happen again in the future." ”
"That's the best, give Lao Tzu a little smarter, get this waste out of the city and bury it, don't dirty Lao Tzu's house!" Li said with a grin.
"Yaga!" Yoshimura Tomiyo, who was crying bitterly, finally couldn't help but be furious, and suddenly rose several feet to the ground, and slashed down his head with a katana in his hand with a sharp cold light.
Li Guangtou's face turned pale in an instant, and it was obviously too late for him to hide at this time, and the bodyguards behind him couldn't rescue him. Seeing that Lee's bald head was about to be split in half, a katana sword was stretched out beside him, and he steadily blocked Yoshimura Fuyo's knife.
When there was a loud bang, although Yoshimura Tomiyo's knife did not cut on Li Guangtou's bald head, the knife wind still blew the latter's bald head faintly painful.
It was Hosokawa Takeshu who held Yoshimura Tomiyo back, and scolded: "Yoshimura, Hugh is rude, immediately apologize to Li Yuanwai!" ”
Hosokawa Takeshu has a murderous motive hidden in his eyes, but right now in Yangzhou City, if he kills Li Guangtou, all of them will be able to escape, not to mention that he is still counting on doing business with Li Guangtou and sending supplies to the country, so Li Guangtou can't die.
"Your Excellency Hosokawa, he insulted my eldest brother, I want to kill him!" Yoshikawa Fuyo roared with red eyes.
Hosokawa Takeshu raised his hand and gave Yoshikawa Tomishiro a big ear scrape, and scolded: "Apologize, immediately!" ”
Yoshikawa Fuyo's expression changed, and finally he lowered his head and said to Li Guangtou in stiff Chinese: "Li Yuanwai, I'm sorry, Yoshimura was impulsive and apologizes to you." ”
Li Guangtou finally recovered from the palpitations at this time, a layer of fine sweat oozed from his bald head, he knew the horror of the two-handed knife, the knife just now could definitely split himself in half, so he was both shocked and angry, and kicked Yoshimura Fuyo out with a flying kick, and scolded: "Bastard, dare to cut Lao Tzu and chop him!" ”
Li Guangtou gave an order, and the bodyguards behind him immediately swung their knives and pounced, but the knife light swept by like a flood of autumn water, and the two bodyguards in front were cut off on the spot with a single knife in their hands, and the rest of the people were so frightened that they stood still.
Hosokawa Takeshu put the knife into the sheath and arched his hand: "Li Yuanwai, there is an old saying called forgiving and forgiving, can you give face to the next and spare Yoshimura's life, but his brother also died for Li Yuanwai, and there is no merit and hard work." ”
Li Guangtou's pupils shrank, and Hosokawa Takeshu showed his hand to make him extremely jealous, and he also took face, so he didn't want to force Hosokawa Takeshu to jump off the wall in a hurry, and snorted coldly: "This time, Lao Tzu will give His Excellency Hosokawa a face, next time whoever dares to fucking use a knife against Lao Tzu, don't blame Lao Tzu for being unkind." ”
Hosokawa Takeshu arched his hand again and said, "Thank you for Li Yuanwai's magnanimity." ”
At this time, Li Guangtou was obviously a little afraid that the Japanese people would suddenly attack again, so he lost a few words and planned to leave.
"Li Yuan is slow outside!" Hosokawa Takeshu suddenly shouted.
Li Guangtou stood still and turned around, and said vigilantly: "What else is the matter with Your Excellency Hosokawa?" ”
"Outside of Li Yuan, can the promise of the Oiran Contest still be valid?" Hosoko Takeshu asked calmly.
Li Guangtou smiled: "I, Li Guangtou, have always been good at talking, if Ono Lily takes the Oiran, the next transaction will add three ships, and the iron and copper coins will also be doubled." ”
It is worth mentioning here that the copper coins of the Ming Dynasty are very popular in the Wa Kingdom, and a thousand Wen Qian can be exchanged for four taels of silver, which is equivalent to quadrupling the value, so driven by huge interests, the unscrupulous merchants along the coast even privately minted copper coins and traded with the Wa people, Li Guangtou is one of them, and he can even get the firearms of the Ming military guard to sell to the Wa people.
Hosokawa Takeshu nodded and said, "Okay, I hope Li Yuanwai doesn't break his promise!" ”
Li Guangtou said proudly: "Lao Tzu has never lost his trust, however, Lao Tzu has stated in advance, don't play some low-level means of kidnapping people, Yangzhou Salt Transport Envoy Shi has already spoken, whoever breaks the rules will not be able to get salt for three years, you don't hurt Lao Tzu." ”
After Li Guangtou finished speaking, he left the West Cross Courtyard with a group of his subordinates, probably because he was worried that the Japanese would poison him, so he simply left the house and stayed at a nearby inn.
