The next morning, Chen Xin was still drinking morning tea in the palace garden, and the butler had nothing to do today, so he waited on the side. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

It's late autumn now, and the garden is full of autumn breezes.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Chen Xin sighed with emotion, "After a while, I won't be able to come out." ”

"Yes, your lordship, after all, winter is coming soon, and the winter in the Yalu River area is not suitable for staying outside. Not to mention the snow, the constant fluttering wind alone is as uncomfortable as a knife cut.

However, if you wish, you can have the back garden enclosed in a small space with glass.

With the heating installed, you can rest even in the coldest part of winter. ”

Chen Xin shook his head, "Forget it, with the current technology, it is not easy to create an all-glass room."

If the money is completely in place, it can make the floor-to-ceiling windows with alloy frames, but the money will be spent.

Now is not the time to spend money on these places, and I can't take the lead in extravagance. ”

After that, Chen Xin also muttered in a low voice, "It's really, in this era, the money to build an aluminum alloy house is actually enough to build several warships, and aluminum in this era is so expensive, so why do you need silver, just use aluminum as a monetary unit." ”

Just as Chen Xin was complaining, he saw Anya walking over with a person in the uniform of a police officer of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

After the man walked in front of Chen Xin, he stood upright and beat his chest and saluted, "Li Guanghai, head of the Ping'an County Police Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, see Junshang." ”

At present, the number of police officers in the Ministry of Internal Affairs is still very small, and most of them were temporarily transferred from the retired personnel of the army when the retirement policy was first implemented half a year ago, so the custom of marching salute was naturally passed on to the police force.

Because of their small numbers, most of the time, when there is a security problem, it is necessary for the armed guard and militia forces to help deal with those law and order cases.

However, before the establishment of the kingdom, a professional police academy had been established, and the first batch of cyborg instructors also moved into the school to become instructors, and soon, the kingdom could have the first professional police force.

A professional police force is an excellent means to replace the feudal system of government service, soap subordinate, and white service, and it is also the best weapon to maintain one's dominance in addition to the army.

Chen Xin's thinking is still not good since he turned on the long-distance energy transmission ability, and the moment he saw the other party saluting, he was distracted again, thinking about a lot of things that he didn't have.

Fortunately, Chen Xin had already ordered Lao Bai to wake him up immediately before he could adapt to the long-distance energy transmission ability and completely return to normal, once he appeared in this state of distraction and crankiness in front of others.

Therefore, when Lao Bai detected that Chen Xin's brain waves were abnormal, and messy things kept appearing in his mind, he took measures.

Chen Xin's fingertips were slightly numb, as if he had been electrocuted, and he recovered in an instant, the time was so short, the state was calm, outsiders couldn't see it at all, Chen Xin was actually distracted just now.

"What's the matter?" Chen Xin's style is still so direct, and he is not even willing to say such a polite remark as "no courtesy".

Fortunately, everyone knows Chen Xin's habits, and after the policeman saluted, he finished the salute and stood upright, waiting for Chen Xin's questioning, and there was no embarrassment of raising his arms.

"Your Majesty, we raided the pirates handed over by the Navy last night, and this is the interrogation transcript you want."

Chen Xin put down the teacup in his hand and sat up, "I won't look at it yet, you can tell me, what happened yesterday, what happened?" ”

"Okay, Your Majesty, according to the confession of the captive, the three pirate ships that were pursued in front belonged to a great pirate named Li Kuiqi.

The 11 search pirate ships that pursued behind were the men and horses belonging to the current Daming coastal defense guerrilla Zheng Zhilong. ”

"Oh? Is this Zheng Zhilong suppressing bandits? Then why didn't that group of people wave the banner of the Ming official army? ”

"Your Majesty, there is still a very complicated inside story here.

In fact, Zheng Zhilong and Li Kuiqi are sworn brothers.

In the third year of the new calendar, that is, in the first year of Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty, Zheng Zhilong accepted the recruitment of Xiong Wencan, the governor of Fujian, and became the coastal defense guerrilla of the Ming Dynasty.

And Li Kuiqi, Zhong Bin, Liu Xiang and other Zheng Zhilong's sworn brothers were unwilling to accept Zhao'an, so they parted ways with each other.

In the time that followed, Zheng Zhilong was assigned by his superiors to start cleaning up pirates, and he was the first to attack these former sworn brothers.

However, Zheng Zhilong's former righteous brothers are not good at stubble, especially in recent years, Li Kuiqi, Liu Xiang and others have risen in strength because of trade with our country, and Zheng Zhilong has suffered a small loss.

However, Zheng Zhilong relied on the Ming Dynasty behind him, with strong technology, materials, and manpower support, and soon surpassed his previous brothers in terms of ship scale.

Just this year, Zheng Zhilong's old brothers were wiped out one by one, and Li Kuiqi suffered heavy losses in the battle with Zheng Zhilong.

Although Zheng Zhilong accepted Zhao'an, at sea, he was still divided into two groups of people, one was used to deal with the Ming Dynasty Navy Division forces such as Shangguan inspection, and the main role of this part was to get military expenses and various technical support from Daming.

The other group is directly under the management of Zheng Zhilong's eighteen Zhizhi directly under the management of pirates, these people are still under the banner of pirates, from the sea to reap benefits, after all, the annual Ming Dynasty's sea trade, but with a trade volume of hundreds of millions of silver taels, Zheng Zhilong will never give up this piece of fat. ”

"Hehe, what a bloody costume commercial family ethics war drama." After complaining in his heart, Chen Xin asked again, "Then why did that Li Kuiqi run to the sea area of the kingdom?" Didn't they operate in the waters of Fujian? There are thousands of nautical miles between us, and their little wrecked ship of tonnage is probably not less suffering. ”

"Your Majesty, according to Li Kuiqi's own confession, he has come specifically to join the kingdom."

"What?" Chen Xin was afraid that he had misheard, so he asked again, "What do you mean?" I didn't get it. ”

The policeman replied again in a straight voice, "Your Majesty, according to Li Kuiqi's own confession, he has come specifically to join the kingdom. He added, "He wanted to clear the way to the kingdom and find a way to recruit peace and become a good citizen." ”

"It's really the world's big, it's all strange, a big pirate leader who is unwilling to accept the Ming Dynasty's recruitment, actually wants to be a good citizen in my country?"

"Your Majesty, according to the information we have received from Li Kuiqi's other subordinates, it is true, Li Kuiqi is not lying."
