Chapter 1105: Qingpu's Sea People
"Here, I am the only one who is qualified to put forward conditions, and if you want to achieve something, it is best to do what I ask you to do, so that we can continue to talk." Zhao Jin said with a smile.
After saying that, he waved his hand, and the guards took Tang Ruowang away, Tang Ruowang didn't struggle or get angry or anything, but became a little low, Xu Housheng only shook his head there, and said to Zhao Jin in a low voice: "Brother-in-law, when you talk to foreigners, you always feel a little strange when you choose words and sentences. ”
Zhao Jingan laughed, but didn't answer this sentence, but said solemnly: "Housheng, you have to treat these foreigners as teachers, not how you respect them, but you have to learn their skills, you have to learn, the craftsmen and scholars of the Craftsman Hall and the Public Works School have to learn, how to learn, it depends on your ability." ”
"Please rest assured, brother-in-law, their skills are not excellent, but we don't have them, I will definitely study hard." Xu Housheng also has a solemn attitude towards this.

"Now the celebrant is pressing Dongchang and Jinyiwei very tightly, letting them inquire about the confidential news of our Xuzhou, and also bribing the core figures of our Xuzhou" Liu Yong returned to Xuzhou from Qingjiangpu and brought the results of the torture there.
"It is rumored that our Zhao Ziying has dug up a silver mine in Jingshan, so it can support such a big situation, the factory guard wants to inquire about the location of this silver mine, and what is even more vicious is that they also have to dig the ancestral grave of the eldest brother's family, saying that the feng shui over there is excellent, and if this is broken, the fortune of the eldest brother will be weak" Speaking of this, Liu Yong's face was full of anger.
Digging the ancestral grave is the most vicious method, no wonder Liu Yong thinks so, but this rumor and a method are ridiculous, Zhao Jin is just laughing when he hears it, in addition to these, Liu Yong also mentioned Wei Mugen's method, which is strictly guarded in the key places of the Zhao Ziying system, and is routinely disposed of in other places, so that there is no way to cover everything, but it can ensure the safety of all parts of the Zhao Ziying to the greatest extent.
Zhao Jin, Wang Zhaojing and Ruhui all agreed, Zhao Ziying is not an official government now, and there is no reason to take care of everything, the local people may not be grateful for such a situation, and there will be resentment if it is not good.
"Big brother, the younger brother wants to take Tian Ying and Tian Zhu to Dengzhou Mansion, or follow the boat to see all over Liaodong." Liu Yong made his own request.
When Zhao Jin first came to Hejiazhuang, he and the nine surrounding villages were connected with the village, Tian Ying was a local tyrant nearby, but they were the first local forces to be absorbed by Zhao Ziying, and now they have become a member of Zhao Ziying, but they are always on the edge, and Tian Zhu They came from Yizhou and are still in the process of training and investigation.
This is also an interesting anecdote of the Xuzhou Zhao Ziying system, although Tian Ying and Tian Zhu have the same surname, but the clan is completely unrelated, the two sides are actually quite similar to each other after contact in Xuzhou, and they have to worship the righteousness into brothers, and the friendship is quite good, but people with a clear mind can see that this is a means for the marginal characters in the Zhao Ziying to hold together for self-preservation.
Liu Yong proposed that these two people do not specifically refer to them, but to the local qualified marginal people in Xuzhou and the group of people who were recruited before and after the Shandong Rebellion, they can do things but have no chance to get ahead, and what makes them even more difficult is that they don't even have too many opportunities to do things now, just do their work step by step.
"Don't take any chances, your life is valuable, and whatever you need will be given to you here." Zhao Jin has no strength to reprimand Liu Yong's motivation, but Dengzhou Mansion does want to use internal guards to take root, and the matter of going to Liaodong to collect refugees needs to be presided over there in person, Liu Yong went over there, and Lei Cai, who was active back and forth in Linqing Prefecture and Jining Prefecture, is estimated to have passed, and he will not be so unable to reach out over there.
"Xiao Yong's method is good, there are many people here who want to do things but are not in line with the system, and they can experience and test when they go to Dengzhou Mansion, but the sea is windy and the waves are strong, Xiao Yong, you must be cautious." Wang Zhaojing agrees with this.
Liu Yong nodded, and just said in a muffled voice: "If there are a few sea ships going to Liaodong this time, even if only one is from our Zhao Ziying, which is controlled by the Cai family and our own family, it will be much more convenient. ”
Speaking of this, Ruhui, who was sitting on the side, sneered: "The Yu family's thoughts are inevitably too much, saying that it is three years and five years to become a talent, but we have sent people for more than a year, and now they are still doing chores over there, is it more difficult to sail and operate a ship than this cannons and iron, or is it reluctant to give us a boat?" ”
Ruhui also kept coming back with corresponding news, he said that there was nothing comparable to these items, but everyone understood what he meant, Zhao Jin shook his head slowly, and said in a deep voice: "I know what you said, everyone knows it, I'm afraid the Yu family itself knows, but our things on the sea all rely on the help of the Yu family, and they also do it very carefully, hiding their secrets in this, and it makes sense to be reasonable." ”
"Big brother, the amount of money in Clam Port is huge, he uses the Qingjiangpu City and commercial goods to call for wind and rain on the ocean, and even has great profits in Haizhou Huaiyan, and has obtained so many benefits, what reason do they have?" Wang Zhaojing said in a sullen voice.
Zhao Jin shook his head again and said: "We all have a share of these big profits, and his roots are in Jiangnan, as soon as the sand boat arrives at sea, we have no choice, if we really want to compete, do we have any way?" ”
Speaking to this point, everyone understands the stakes, but they also understand Zhao Jin's position and attitude, but this situation is like this, the purchase and sale of gunpowder, the collection and transportation of Liaodong refugees, and even the collection of foreign technicians, and the inquiring about the news on the ocean all need to be done by the Yu family, and Zhao Ziying cannot find another replacement at present.
The Yu family's support for Zhao Ziying can already be said to be full force, so with a little selfishness, everyone can't talk about it on the table.
"In the final analysis, we don't have our own fleet of sea vessels, and the forces on the sea are self-contained, so we can't find a way to start." Wang Zhaojing sighed, and Liu Yong interjected at this time: "There are many people coming and going from the south to the north over there in Qingjiangpu, and it is difficult to guarantee that there are people from the maritime merchants and sea owners, so you can pay attention to it." ”
"This is a method, but it is also looking for a needle in a haystack, why is that Li Laohai missing?" Ruhui said in a sullen voice.
Speaking of Li Laohai, several people in the room quieted down, and then couldn't help but smile bitterly, Zhao Jin said with emotion: "This Jiang is really old and spicy, it was originally a situation to beg us, but now it has become his initiative." ”
**************
On several land and water wharves on the bank of the Qingjiangpu Canal, Zhao Ziying arranged a lot of eyeliner in the bright and dark places, in addition to the internal guards and patrolmen, the guys of the various cargo stores and ship houses are also the eyes and ears of Xuzhou, and they will rely on this news in exchange for rewards, and the business travelers who come and go will be targeted if there is something wrong.
There are seven people coming down from a boat over there, and those who are familiar with this side can immediately judge that the boat is a sea ship on the south side of the Yangtze River, which is not large, and it is the kind that walks on the sea and the river, and the people who come down from the boat are begging for a living on the water all year round, looking at their skin color and style, these people are not on the rivers and lakes, but the sea seals on the ocean, not to mention that these seven people have dark complexions, and their clothes are just ordinary coarse cloth, but they are all strong, and the short knives they wear are not cheap, and this look is the cronies of the sea owner. Even which sea lord came.
It may be that they are used to running rampant on the ocean and the coast, except for the one-armed man in his forties, who is calmer, the other six young men are very flamboyant, and the news is passed quickly, and the scouts who are placed here by the patrol and the internal guards have already come, and they are pretending to be the guys soliciting customers at the inn, and they are smiling and stepping forward to test it.
"This place is rich, and if you wash it once, it will be happy." Someone said with a smile, his companions laughed, and began to speak, and the detectives couldn't understand it at all, but it happened that one person could hear that this was the dialect of Fujian, and immediately found a guy from a Fujian shop nearby, and only let him listen in silence, and the first thing he heard was this.
Of course, everyone understands the meaning of these words, the eyeliners were immediately awe-inspiring, and the news was quickly transmitted outward, if these people made any abnormal moves, they would be arrested on the street, and it was not impossible to kill them on the street.
"I didn't expect there to be such a prosperous place in the world, did you look at the shore when our ship came in? It is all a rich family's mansion, and the waterway here is wide, as long as the wind is right, our big boat can also come in, and then it will be really happy. The person in front of him said that his companion was echoing, and the face of the guy who followed changed his face.
Fortunately, the surveillance arranged by the internal guard patrol is very good, and someone will pass by with the guy at any time, ask the meaning of what these people are saying, and then go to a short distance to summarize, so that the relevant people will not be exposed, etc., and they can keep following.
"What nonsense are you talking about, how many times have you told you, the shore is not on the sea, the wind is lost here, even if you spend money to get in, you can't get out, and you think this Qingjiangpu is so easy to get in and out, if you really want to do it, you can stop the river here, how can we get out!" The one-armed middle-aged man in front of him was impatient to hear this, and turned around to scold a few words.
"Uncle Qi, when the time comes, it will be hard to kill it, our brothers are not even afraid of the officers and soldiers, what kind of person is raised in this peaceful place?"
"You are shallow-eyed, what qualifications do we sea people have to look down on the land, didn't you let the Japanese take the lead when you went ashore that time, did you rush to the front? You haven't seen the Xuzhou soldiers and horses, they are really first-class elites, we can't beat them, even those outlaws. The one-armed middle-aged man said very solemnly.
"Uncle Hai, it's really so good, but you can't see anything, there are forts in Yuegang and Macau, why don't you see it here, this piece of fat is placed here, and no one comes to move?" Another asked.
