Chapter 904: Hide Yourself First

Qin Feng bluntly said that Zhou Li couldn't do the things of the Maritime Administration, but Zhou Li on the side was also at ease, because Qin Feng was right. Pen Γ— fun Γ— Pavilion www. biquge。 info He also came out of the system, he had been in the Chu State Naval Division before, and his position was not low, raising a fleet, and all aspects of affairs were extremely complicated, how could he be a military general. What he is good at is just leading troops to fight. When it comes to leading the fleet into battle, he thinks that he is no worse than others, but if he wants to hand over a large mess of affairs of the Marine Department to him, he has only the intention of retreating.

If nothing else, he didn't know exactly how the goods of the more than a dozen merchant ships were sold this time. And some time ago, Qin Feng also told him some maritime things more or less, and his scalp was numb when he heard it.

What's more, Qin Feng's second son of Ning this time, when he was in the Ning family before, he got along very well with him, although the other party had a purpose and wanted to win him over, but he was always a person who valued himself and also made himself look pleasing to the eye.

So when Qin Feng said this, Ning Ergongzi's eyes looked over again, he smiled and nodded at the other party, which can be regarded as a reassuring pill for the other party, even if he came earlier and won Qin Feng's trust, but as long as Ning Ergongzi came to be the head of this maritime department, he would never be embarrassed by him.

Zhou Li expressed his attitude, and Ning Ergongzi was suddenly overjoyed. At this moment, I just eagerly wanted to deal with the matter in front of me, and then go back to Quanzhou and take down the position of the patriarch of the Ning clan first.

There is a small lake on the big island, an area of several acres, but there is no problem in supplying fresh water to the whole island, a good building is built on the edge of the lake, there are no other houses around, the whole house is made of stone, extremely strong. A small platform on the faΓ§ade, half of it is probed into the lake, if the wind and the sun are beautiful, set up a small table, boil a pot of fragrant tea, taste tea near the lake, bathe the sun fishing, it is also an extremely elegant place.

"This is where Zuli usually lives." Luo Ping, the pirate leader who surrendered a few days ago, looked a little defeated, he saw the opportunity early, surrendered very quickly, his brothers on the ship did not die much, but now they are all locked in the bilge of the sea ship, as for himself, what will happen to him, there is no bottom in his heart. Just saw the battle of the Changyang attacking Huludao, and his legs were even weaker.

Until now, he didn't know where this cross-river dragon came from, but looking at their familiarity with Ning Ergongzi, it seemed that they were extremely familiar people.

"This Zuli seems to be a fierce god, but I can't imagine that he is also a blessed person." Walking into the house and looking at the furnishings in the house, Qin Feng couldn't help but sigh.

The furnishings in the house, no matter what they are, are not ordinary things, and any one of them is worth a lot on the market.

"He's a guy who doesn't have a lot of money, and the money comes quickly." Zhou Li smiled.

"Luo Ping, Zu Li has been a pirate for most of his life, and he has gained a lot, since you are his ally, do you know where his good things are hidden?" Zhou Li asked bluntly. You can't let Your Majesty come to ask him, Zhou Li has the consciousness of being a villain.

"Leader Zhou, villain, villain was only invited by them temporarily this time, although they usually know each other, but they are not familiar with each other, if it weren't for Zuli who needs us this time, we also want a piece of the pie, then dare to provoke Zuli, the villain is terrible He swallowed me in one bite. How is it possible for a villain to know where Zuli's belongings are hidden? Luo Ping trembled and said.

This is also true, Zhou Li nodded at Qin Feng. However, this is Zu Li's lair, and the wealth he robbed can only be hidden in this place, Qin Feng is not in a hurry, and he can find it left and right. There must be Zu Li's henchmen left behind on this island, and when Huo Guang and Zhou Yangfan arrest them all back, and then try the first trial, naturally everything will be clear.

"The scenery here is very good, if we just sit here, it will be far away, and Zhou Li, He Ying, just tell me about the battle of this sailor, I really don't know anything about this." Qin Feng said with a smile.

Hearing Qin Feng's words, the horse monkey immediately commanded a few guards to move tables and chairs on the wooden platform outside, at this time the sun was just right, the lake was rippling, and the sound of the waves in the distance was indeed unique.

It's calm here, but outside the woods of this small lake, it's a different scene.

There are about hundreds of people on the island, mostly women and children, basically the families of pirates, and some strong people, but at this time, they are all tied up by four horses, and the usual ferocity has long been gone, and there is only some fear left in their eyes.

From time to time, soldiers rushed and whispered a few words in Zhou Yangfan's ear, but Zhou Yangfan's face became more and more unkind, the island was occupied, but the property on the island was pitiful, far from what they expected.

Compared with Qin Feng, Zhou Yangfan is even more expecting to make a big profit. His Majesty the Emperor has already said that this time Ning's cargo profits will be returned to him, so that he can use this as capital to go back to compete for the position of patriarch, and the Zhou father and son want to urgently expand the fleet, then they must get more materials and silver, His Majesty the Emperor has promised that the proceeds of this time will be invested in the Baoqing Shipyard to produce more warships.

It's not that Zhou Yangfan is too careful, he also has some thoughts. In the future, the Ming fleet will not be his Zhou family's words, once Ning Ergongzi joins the gang, then He Ying is also a ready-made sea general, although this person is not as good as his father and son, but he is also a strong general at sea. And once the second son of Ning becomes the patriarch, there will inevitably be more people to vote, and the Zhou father and son have separated from the Ning family before, so they will naturally have a layer of separation from these people.

Rather than waiting to compete with others later, it is naturally better to take it into your hands now.

Some of the captives were bound and taken away.

"Big brother, these guys are alert, they grabbed a small boat and wanted to run, but our brothers are also fishing for food at sea, if this is the case, let him run away, wouldn't it be shameless, we drove the boat to chase over, killed two, and caught three back." A barefoot sailor said with a smile, he was brought by Zhou Li's father and son, and he was Zhou Li's old subordinate, and he always called Zhou Yangfan his eldest brother. "It looks like this guy is not low!"

Zhou Yangfan squinted at the other party and smiled, "Zuli will set up a nest here, and naturally the thieves are here, but the island has been searched almost and nothing has been found, so it can only fall on these people." ”

walked a few steps forward, stared at the people in front of him, and said loudly: "Everyone is making a living at sea, and everyone knows the rules of the sea, if you lose, you can only accept your fate, Zhou is not a nameless person at sea, and now I am stacked here, that one knows the location of Zuli's treasure, as long as he is willing to confess honestly, he will let him live, neither will kill you, nor will he sell you out as a slave, if no one confesses, I don't bother to judge, I will kill you all in one go, and then slowly find it on the island, There is only such a small island left and right, Lao Tzu digs three feet into the ground, and he can't find it if he doesn't believe it. Now to give you a chance, it is also the virtue of heaven to have a good life, from now on, I count from one to ten, if no one confesses, you will ask Huangquan Road to walk well! ”

Listening to Zhou Yangfan's words, the people who were tied up immediately became agitated.

"One, two......" Zhou Yangfan raised his head, didn't look at everyone, and counted slowly.

On the edge of the small lake, the topic at this time turned back to the topic of Ning Ergongzi seizing the position of patriarch.

"He Ying lost five warships this time, but I will give you all the pirate ships captured this time, but I am afraid that there will be insufficient sailors, so I have to cooperate with Zhou Li, and after I go back, I will cooperate with his sailors." Soldiers don't have to worry, first allocate these 800 soldiers to you, and then our sailors will be quiet for a while anyway, and when you win the position of patriarch, we will talk about the rest. Qin Feng said with a smile.

"Your Majesty, it's better for the last general to go back with the second son." Zhou Li said with a smile: "Zhou is also a little famous in Quanzhou, and if he goes back, he may be able to increase the chances of winning for the second son." ”

"If you leave, what will happen to the training of new sailors?" Qin Feng asked.

"Sail training is enough." Zhou Lidao.

"What did Zeyuan say?" Qin Feng looked at Ning Zeyuan.

Ning Zeyuan pondered for a moment, and said: "The minister thinks this proposal is excellent, if I go back like this, it will inevitably arouse suspicion, if General Zhou goes back with him, the minister can say that he met pirates at sea, but he met General Zhou by chance, and cooperated with General Zhou to defeat the pirates, and he was captured." ”

"In that case, Zhou Li, simply, you bring the Changyang ship back, since you want to make a strong noise, then you might as well make it bigger." Qin Feng said with a smile.

"But Your Majesty, a battleship like the Changyang Ship is too eye-catching." Zhou Li hesitated.

"What are you afraid of, you are famous in this sea area, if someone asks, you can say, you have returned to your old job, what is so strange about this ship, there are so many island countries overseas, just talk nonsense about a country, just say that the ship was obtained from there." Qin Feng said with a smile. "You go for a spin, do something for Zeyuan, and come back in the spring of next year, at that time, I want to come to Ning Dagongzi's fleet, Zhou's fleet, and some small merchant ships should also take advantage of that season to go to sea, just grab another handful."

"Yes, then it is up to His Majesty's arrangement." Zhou Li said with a smile.

"Rob them a few times, and the Ning family will know who should be in charge of that family, and the Zhou family, if you are not stupid, will always come to talk to us about cooperation. I want to build Huludao into a military port, the purpose is here, I don't want people to know in the past few years, our Ming has a good naval force, so you can only be a pirate for a few years first! Qin Feng laughed.
