Chapter 649: Excessive Demands

Banana Bay, that is, the bay where Xu Yuan and they are going to build a stronghold, because the shape of this bay is long and narrow, somewhat similar to bananas, and the land on three sides of the bay is full of banana forests, and ripe bananas can be seen everywhere, so this place was named Banana Bay by Xu Yuan, and if it develops into a harbor in the future, it will naturally be called Banana Port.

The construction of the stronghold of Banana Bay has begun for nearly half a month, and I saw that a simple dock has been built at the innermost position of the bay, which can be used for ordinary small boats to dock, but Xu Yuan's warships are too deep to get close to, so they can only dock in the bay. Walking along the wharf to the shore, you can see a busy construction site, here is a wooden walled city, surrounded by tall logs to form a fence, although in the eyes of the Great Song Dynasty is very simple, but in a barbaric place like Luzon, it is already a very strong castle.

Some houses have been built inside the walled city, in addition to the soldiers who stayed on the ship, the rest of the soldiers worked during the day and rested in the walled city at night, Xu Yuan's evil ghosts needed to leave a person on the ship, so they generally took turns to go ashore, today happened to be Xu Yuan ashore, commanded the soldiers to do a day's work during the day, and after dinner at night, he was also preparing to rest, but at this time, someone suddenly came to him.

"Shopkeeper Huang, why do you have time to come to me today?" Xu Yuan was also a little surprised to see Huang Sanxing come to him, because Huang Sanxing also had a son who had just turned one year old, although he was born to a native woman, but it was very cute, and it was strange to say, although Huang Sanxing had been married for many years in the Great Song Dynasty, he and his wife had five daughters in a row, as if God didn't want him to have a son, but he didn't expect to have a son in Luzon, so even if this son was born to a native woman. But he is still very loving, and he usually can't even let others hug him.

"This ......" Huang Sanxing showed hesitation at this time, and after a while, he gritted his teeth and said, "General Xu, the villain was saved by General Meng, and there should be no more luxury." It's just that there is one thing I have to beg you, because it is related to the villain's life's work! ”

"Oh? What's up? Xu Yuan said quietly when he heard this, since Huang Sanxing begged him so solemnly, it was definitely not an ordinary thing, so if it really made him embarrassed, then he could only love and helpless.

"This ......" I saw Huang Sanxing hesitate again, and finally gritted his teeth and finally spoke: "General, can you return to me the gold and property you got in the Suhea tribe, because those treasures should have been mine." ”

"What?" When Xu Yuan heard Huang Sanxing's request, he couldn't help but wonder if he had heard it wrong. He actually asked for gold and wealth from himself, although he is now a sailor and not a robber, but sometimes there is not much difference between officers and soldiers and robbers, and if he wants him to spit out the property in his hand again, even if he agrees, I am afraid that his soldiers will not agree.

Seeing Xu Yuan's expression, Huang Sanxing also knew how excessive his request was, but when he thought of the situation at home that he heard from Wu Lai. This made him grit his teeth and speak again: "The general doesn't know that when we were captured by the Suhea tribe. The tribal leader forcibly assigned each of us a native maiden, among which the native maiden assigned to me was the daughter of the tribal chief, and the gold and possessions were his daughter's dowry, so nominally speaking, those possessions actually belonged to the villain. ”

"Oh? So what, you know. If we don't want to save you, I'm afraid you will have to stay in the native tribe for the rest of your life, and you won't have the opportunity to use gold at all, so that gold is a pile of beautiful stones for you. Then we saved you and took your father and son with us, and the gold will be your reward for us! In fact, he is not a greedy person, but after the gold is in his hands, it will definitely enter the public treasury and be registered, and it will be handed over in the future, and he and his soldiers can at most get some as a reward, so he has no right to dispose of the gold.

"General! Although the villain is a businessman, but also understands the Entu newspaper, the villain did not plan to return the gold, but in the past few days I learned through Guò Hulai brother that my family's Wanbao firm has been worse than a day since I had an accident, and even owes a large amount of money, because of this situation, the two daughters were actually divorced by their engaged husbands, and now even if I go back, I am afraid that I can only be forced to pay debts by a group of creditors, so the only chance is to ask the general to return the gold to me, or lend it to me, As long as you wait for the villain's business to slow down, you will definitely return it to the general in the future! At this time, Huang Sanxing finally told the reason why he had the courage to ask for gold.

Hearing Huang Sanxing's words, Xu Yuan's heart was also soft, in fact, after seeing Huang Sanxing and his party, he also asked Wu Lai about Huang Sanxing's situation in private, after all, the other party was going to stay with them for a few months, so he also had to understand Huang Sanxing's character, so he also knew that Huang Sanxing's current situation at home was not good, but unfortunately he had no right to call the shots about that batch of gold and property.

It is precisely because of the above reasons that Xu Yuan finally shook his head after thinking about it for a while: "Shopkeeper Huang, you said that those gold and property were dowries accompanied by the local leaders, but there is no evidence, only the testimony of you and your buddies is obviously not good, plus since those properties have been confiscated, I have no right to return them to you, so you should not mention this matter again!" ”

Although Huang Sanxing had already been prepared to be rejected when he came to see Xu Yuan, and even if he hadn't really had any way, I'm afraid he wouldn't have come to Xu Yuan to make such a request, but at this time, when he heard Xu Yuan's refusal, he finally sighed weakly, it seems that their Huang family really has no hope, and half of his life's hard work can only be wasted.

However, just as Huang Sanxing was about to walk out of Xu Yuan's room, he saw Xu Yuan behind him suddenly speak: "Wait a minute, if you want to get back the gold, it's not impossible!" ”

Huang Sanxing, who was already extremely disappointed, heard Xu Yuan's words, and immediately trembled all over, and immediately turned around and said in a dry voice: "General, you ...... What do you mean by that, will you give me back the gold? ”

Xu Yuan saw Huang Sanxing, who was so excited, but smiled slightly: "Didn't I say it just now, I don't have the right to return the gold to you." ”

Hearing Xu Yuan's words, Huang Sanxing couldn't help but show a disappointed expression again, but then Xu Yuan's words shocked his spirit: "But although I don't have power, there is a person who has this power, but this person is not here, but in Guangzhou, it just so happens that this stronghold has been almost built, at the latest ten days later, we will leave a group of people, and the rest of the people will go back to Guangzhou, then you can go back with us, I will help you introduce that person, if he agrees, Then there's nothing wrong with giving the gold back to you. ”

"Really, thank you for the general's help, if the villain can get the gold back, he will repay the general even if he is a cow and a horse in the future!" Huang Sanxing said overjoyed at this time, although he knew that the person in Xu Yuan's mouth was definitely not an ordinary person, and it was not easy to get the other party to promise to return the gold to him, but this was always an opportunity, with his current situation, he would not give up even if there was a slight opportunity.

Xu Yuan really did not deceive Huang Sanxing, seven days later, the main body of the Banana Bay Walled City has been built, the tall wooden wall outside stands tall in the bay, it looks extremely solid, and on the side of the walled city is directly adjacent to the wharf, if the enemy is strong, the walled city is really unstoppable, the soldiers in the walled city can also escape to the sea through the guò wharf, with the strength of the Great Song Dynasty naval warships, it is impossible for the natives on this side of Luzon to threaten them.

It is precisely because of this that when Xu Yuan and the others left Banana Bay, they only left a thousand soldiers to defend, as well as some warships, and the evil ghost himself took the initiative to ask to stay, he is an adventurous person by nature, and it is better to kill him if he wants to go back to live honestly, so he feels that staying in Luzon is the most suitable choice for him.

Regarding the evil ghost's initiative to stay, Xu Yuan finally agreed after thinking about it for a long time, don't look at the evil ghost usually seems to be a little reckless, but he is not confused in major matters, otherwise he would not have become Xu Yuan's right-hand man in the first place, so if the evil ghost is left, Xu Yuan will also be more assured of the safety here.

So in this case, the evil ghost left behind with a thousand people, and Xu Yuan took the rest of the soldiers back to the Great Song Dynasty, after all, their main task is to build a stronghold in Luzon, and now the stronghold has been completed, there is no need for so many people to defend it, and the time they have left the Great Song Dynasty is not short, if they stay any longer, I am afraid it will affect the morale of the army, and even the evil ghosts They are not staying for a long time, and when they come next time, they will exchange guards with them.

Huang Sanxing has been anxiously waiting for the day to go back, after all, he has learned from Wu Lai that the situation in his family is very bad, not only is the business about to collapse, but also the two daughters of the family have been divorced by their husbands, and the family is supported by his wife.

Under the expectation of Huang Sanxing, Xu Yuan finally ordered the sailor army to return to the sea, compared to the way here, the return voyage was not smooth, and there was even a big storm on the way, but fortunately, their warships were the best sea ships in the Great Song Dynasty, and they had strong resistance to wind and waves, but even so, after the storm, there was still a warship because the damage was too great, and the soldiers on the ship had to abandon the ship, and more than a dozen soldiers were missing in the storm, but in that weather, disappearance is actually synonymous with death.
