82 Post-war
Therefore, Li Tianyang has to find another shortcut, what he wants to do is to erect a banner of "punishing evil and promoting good", so that the worldview that he has finally established among his teenagers will not be destroyed by Li Tianyang.
Since the death of Xu Jie, the former first assistant, and the disciples and protégés he promoted, such as Zhang Juzheng and Zhang Siwei, have fallen one after another, the Xu family can only sit and eat the old book. In order to maintain the huge family business from decay, the Xu family paid more attention to the education of scholars in the clan on the one hand, and on the other hand, they colluded with local bureaucrats to do all kinds of unconscionable things to stabilize their position and strength in Songjiang.
Under such circumstances, the Songjiang Xu family was eager to expand their own strength, so they had to have a lot of entanglements with his close neighbor, the Xu family on Chongming Island. Although the two families are both surnamed Xu, they can be regarded as brothers of the family five hundred years ago, but in the face of interests, these are just a vain. When Lu Bingyan learned from He Yong's mouth that he wanted to find a target, as a member of the Xu family on Chongming Island, the first thing that came to mind was of course the business name of the Xu family in Songjiang.
They should also be unlucky, in this month of wax, there happens to be a batch of valuable goods ready, ready to take advantage of the northeast monsoon swept season, shipped to the South Seas to make a fortune. Unfortunately, this news was known by Lu Bingyan's inside line in Jirentang, which led to the scene of Li Tianyang raising them and intercepting Jirentang halfway.
"Of course, Lao Tzu Hongtang is not a real bandit, he can't do anything that hurts the innocent, as long as you don't resist, we will ensure your life safety. Today's incident, if you want to blame, you can only blame your shopkeeper for choosing the wrong one, as a price, this lucky ship and the goods on board will belong to us Hongtang! He Yong let go of Ma Rufeng and said to the crew on the ground: "Later, after we finish counting the goods, we will send you to the shore, and then everyone will go home by themselves!" ”
With a wave of his hand, the teenagers carried a group of bound prisoners into the shipyard and concentrated them in their lodgings.
Next, it was time for everyone to enjoy the post-war victory. In addition to the casualties reported by Gan Dabiao at the beginning, everyone showed a knowing smile when they heard that Sister Tao wanted everyone to ensure that there were no casualties and that they would become lively and lively boys in the next few months.
The results of the battle are not small, this three-masted fortune ship, the internal capacity has a volume of more than 1,000 materials, and the shipments inside, seven or eight out of ten, are the hot-selling porcelain, tea and silk in the South Seas, plus sugar, fine rice paper, Korean ginseng and other luxury goods, which are all worth a lot. After a rough calculation, the value of the goods in the entire sea ship is not six or seven thousand taels, even if Li Tianyang and them sell to Lu Bingyan can only get an ordinary value, at least three or four thousand taels.
This is really much more expensive than Li Tianyang and them to do business, and it is comparable to Li Tian's income for more than a year of raising them Qixintang, no wonder Li De is enthusiastic about Li Tian's business for them, but he still only wants to do the profession of pirates.
From the ship's hold, Gan Dabiao also found nearly 1,000 taels of silver, and a large box full of neatly stacked silver was placed in front of everyone, making everyone's eyes become a piece of white flowers.
"Today, the tenth day of the first month of the forty-third year of Wanli, everyone must remember this day for me, from now on, we will all be a glorious, different, and pirate who walks for the sky!" Li Tianyang stood at the bow of the boat, and below him was a group of teenagers who were dazzled by the silver: "This harvest is good, one trip is comparable to the income of our old family for two years, no wonder others stay away and come here to beg for a living!" ”
Most of the teenagers below laughed stupidly when they heard Li Tianyang's introduction, and they felt that their bloodshed was worth it this time.
"But please don't get carried away by these immediate benefits!! We are not thugs, we are not murderers, we are just a group of teenagers who punish evil and promote good, a group of bad people who are not bad people!! The target we are aiming at is a group of unscrupulous businessmen who do all kinds of evil and bully the good, and this is our starting point!! ”
"For example, this time Jirentang, their owner controls a county, how many good families are forced into desperation by them, and finally their wives are separated, and there are even those who borrow usurious money, sell their wives and children to pay off their debts, and they Jirentang, they are shoddy, mixing moldy and rotten grain with new grain, and selling it to the people of Pingming, they have this difficulty, all of them are to blame, no one else, and everyone must not understand it in their hearts."
"Of course, in the battle formation, there is some damage, it is inevitable, in order to protect the safety of yourself and the companions around you, you have harmed the lives of others, you should not blame yourself, what you do is just your responsibility as a comrade-in-arms."
Li Tianyang is also very worried about the psychological changes of the partners below, for this group of partners who are only sixteen or seventeen years old on average, he is really afraid that he will kill everyone by accident, and he will become a killer in the future. Therefore, in this meeting, Li Tianyang paid more attention to enlightening and comforting everyone, so that everyone would not bring bad changes to the engulfing character due to the influence of violence. After some conversation, although I don't know what the result is, at least in Li Tianyang's opinion, everyone still agrees with his conversation.
"Next, we are going to talk about the group of prisoners held in the opposite ship, and everyone will talk about what to do with it." After the meeting ended, Li Tianyang left a group of leaders above the captain level, as well as He Yong, crowded into a small room on the Shark for a meeting.
"According to me, just throw them on a desert island, and save them from going out and spreading the word!" It was Wu Chao who spoke, Wu Jie's hardcore brother, this time Wu Jie was accidentally injured, Wu Chao was furious, and he couldn't wait to avenge his brother.
"Yes, that's how it should be, and it saves you trouble." Several teenagers who were usually close to Wu Jie nodded in agreement with Wu Chao's proposal.
"I think it's better to throw them near the route if you want to lose them, because there are ships that can only see their cries for help." Gan Dabiao and Wu Shu have different opinions.
"What do you think, Brother Yan?" Li Tianyang asked Zhang Yuyan, the performance of Zhang Yuyan and Wu Shu today made Li Tianyang feel ashamed, at least the two of them were not carried away by anger like Li Tianyang.
"If you want me to say, it's better for us to just make some effort to send them ashore as Uncle He said." Zhang Yuyan thought about it for a moment and said his answer.
"Platoon commander, what do you think, it's three or five days away from the inland, it looks like it's going to be Chinese New Year's Eve, if we don't go back to prepare to buy some New Year's goods, we will send them home, happy not to kill them!" Several teenagers couldn't figure it out, and blamed Zhang Yuyan with a somewhat complaining tone.
"Why?" Li Tianyangsa asked with interest.
"Now that we have just arrived, we really need to make a name for ourselves, if we send these people back to the shore safely, at least it will reflect our Hongtang's rule of not killing innocents indiscriminately, and if we meet maritime merchants who have heard about our rules in the future, maybe we won't have to fight as hard as we do today."
"Well, that's a good idea, I agree." When Gan Dabiao heard this explanation, he immediately defected. Gan Dabiao is an outlier among Li Tianyang, in addition to being timid, he has always liked to solve problems peacefully, except for when he quarrels with Wu Jie, of course.
"Hmm! It's well considered, but it's still a little not atmospheric. Li Tianyang praised Zhang Yuyan a few words, and then said his proposal, which made several teenagers present jump up at once, blushing and arguing with Li Tianyang.
I feel uncomfortable, this is already less, and it is still declining, do you like that kind of fast-paced one?
