Chapter 386

When Liang Jushi smiled, his mouth was wide open, revealing some sharp molars on both sides, giving people a fierce and unusual feeling.

In his early years, he was a kitchen household in Binzhou.Because the imperial court collected more and more money for a while, it increased the income and consumption of salt for a while, and then became an official with more salt, and then there were new tricks such as extra money.But the officials of the Water Transportation Department are also bad wolves, and he has been a robber for a while.

In the last years of Taihe, the troops from the Southern Expedition turned back one after another, and the imperial court wanted to wipe out bandits everywhere, so he ran to the sea again.

After three years of hard work, he became a well-known leader in the sea, and he picked up Nipan Guchala, a confidant sent by King Kui in Zhigu Village, and became his capable subordinate.

Later, when the Central Capital Incident occurred, Nipan Gucha assassinated Wang Shixian so much that he would not die, and was killed by Wang Shixian.Liang Jushi was brought under the control of the Ding Navy along with the various fleets.

On that day, Guo Ning asked the court for two rewards for his meritorious service in beheading Hu Shahu.One is the duty of Laizhou Dinghai Jiedushi, and the other is the fleet that was originally in the hands of the kings of the central capital for smuggling and trading with the Southern Dynasties.

The emperor was quite hesitant about the position of the Jiedushi of the Dinghai Navy, because a Changzhou army became a Jiedushi of the third rank, even if there was Tu Shanyi behind him, it was really sensational.

But for the fleet, the emperor and his officials didn't take it seriously.Everyone felt that this was a request made by Guo Ning for the convenience of transporting troops to Laizhou. Probably, about, this guy also wanted to make some money by the way.

Even those who are as clear as a single Yi think so.

Because although he is the prime minister, he is not in the same way as the kings.The nobles of the Wanyan family have always regarded their wealth as bigger than the sky and hidden deeper than the sea. No matter what, Tu Shanyi never thought that the nobles of the Wanyan family were so happy to dig the corners of big gold, and the smuggling trade at sea has reached this scale.

Until now, the imperial court probably hasn't fully realized how powerful this inadvertent decision has given Guo Ning.

In the past few decades, no matter how prosperous the smuggling trade was, it was ultimately not tolerated by the imperial court.In various pass defenses, the imperial court set up double bans, commissioned field officials and prosecuted offices for detention, and prosecuted them with the criminal department.

However, Guo Ning used the ports of the three prefectures of Denglai as the base and supported by the military force of the Ding Navy. After openly and thoroughly launching trade, a reliable and secure line has gradually been formed between the central capital, Shandong, and many ports in the Song Dynasty in the Southern Dynasties. Maritime trade routes.

As Yang An'er raised troops and blocked the land roads in Shandong, Guo Ning's maritime trade routes built by relying on [-] Tongzhou-like ships became more and more important.

And when Guo Ning won the battle in Liaodong, he also had the huge resources of the Jinyuan Mainland, and he also invested in this reliable and secure maritime trade route.

As for whether this business route is safe or not, to some extent, it depends on the needs of the military government.

Sometimes, a certain ship travels smoothly, and the owner earns a lot of money; sometimes, a certain ship may encounter pirates, be robbed after a few days of sailing at sea, or encounter wind and waves on the way. sank, or hit the rocks inexplicably.

No one can guarantee the absolute safety of ships at sea, but Liang Jushi can guarantee that a certain ship is absolutely unsafe if Xu Canjun of the Recording Department gives an order.Even in many cases, the entire ship is safe, but a certain person on the ship is not safe.

Of course, this time Guo Ning led the army across the sea, the fleet led by Liang Jushi was very safe and fast, which was praised by the generals and schools.That's why he got the chance to go to Laizhou with Old Man Hu and others.

The day before yesterday, Chucai sent someone to tell Liang Jushi in private: Jieshuai is in Laizhou, there will be a ceremony to review the troops, and rewards will be given on the spot at the ceremony.You, Liang, will be among the group of people who are rewarded, and when the time comes, cheer up and perform well in front of Jie Shuai.

At this moment, Liang Jushi was chatting with Old Man Hu, and had some flirtation with Old Man Hu's grandson. He was planning to go to the rear of the convoy to visit those wild Jurchens who had diarrhea.Suddenly there was a sound of horseshoes ahead, and two knights galloped forward: "There is a Liang Jushi, Liang Gangshou, is he in this team?"

"I am Liang Jushi."

"Follow us, the commander-in-chief has a call."

The knight casually threw Liang Jushi a rein, reined in his horse and left.

Liang Jushi was taken aback, quickly took the reins and got on the horse.

He has been focusing on the sea for the past few years, and his riding skills are really unbearable. When he gets on the horse, although the person is dangling, the horse neighs again and again, and he can't get up to speed.He hurriedly said: "The two generals will go first, and the villain will follow."

When he followed the knight from a distance and arrived at the destination, he saw Guo Ning leading several subordinates chatting on a grassy hillside.

Liang Jushi got off his horse and walked a few steps, when he was about to kneel down to meet him, suddenly there was a figure in front of him.

The one who blocked the way was Li Ting, one of the few important generals in the Ding Navy.

"Ahem..." Liang Jushi bowed his head and saluted, and said respectfully: "General Li, please let me go. The commander-in-chief Jie Jie called me, I have to pay a visit."

Li Ting sighed, "No hurry! Don't go yet!"

"This……"

Li Ting looked at Liang Jushi, and said again: "Unexpectedly, Li Erlang's future in my capital is going to be ruined by you?"

How do you say this?When did I offend this ruthless character?
Liang Jushi was startled, his legs went limp instantly.But he is a sea athlete, he has a bit of a stubborn temper, and he is unwilling to lose face in front of Guo Ning.So he took a deep breath and stood up straight again, and said: "General Li, the commander-in-chief in front has called, I have to go see him!"

Li Ting sneered repeatedly.

At this time, Guo Ning, who was on a high place, pointed in the direction of the two of them, and said something, and all the subordinates beside him burst into laughter.Someone shouted: "Li Jiedu, you don't want to vent your anger on others, come back quickly!"

Li Ting immediately turned around, jumped up and cursed: "Jiedu is a fart! That dog, dog... the dog wants to sow discord!"

As soon as he turned around, Liang Jushi quickly trotted past him.

When they arrived in front of Guo Ning, they saluted like a ritual, and said goodbye to Yelu Chucai, Xu Xuan, Jing Anmin and others.

Guo Ning nodded slightly to Xu Yu, Xu Yu took a step forward, and showed Liang Jushi a document.

There are only a few lines on the document, which introduced the name and appearance of a servant serving in the bureau, about when he would leave Zhongdu City, and about when he would arrive at Zhigu Village to look for a boat.

"This is?"

"The imperial court sent someone to deliver a decree to us. But we don't need this decree." Xu Yu said succinctly: "Old Liang, you work hard, take a trip, and let him die in the sea."

It's the little things.Liang Jushi folded up the documents, stuffed them into his sleeves, and asked in a low voice worriedly: "Just now General Li said..."

Guo Ning suppressed a smile at the first place, and said repeatedly: "Old Liang, don't worry about his nonsense, and go to work, and you will understand when you go. This matter is very important. After finishing it, don't make a fuss. I thank you very much."

Liang Jushi responded awe-inspiringly, turned around and left.

Li Ting looked at his back and let out a long sigh.

"Li Jiedu? Li Jiedu?" Several people shouted behind Li Ting: "Enough daydreaming, just wake up!"

Li Ting turned around resentfully, and continued to mutter.

Now that Liang Jushi had gone far away, he had no scruples. It turned out that what he repeatedly scolded was the word "dog emperor".

After scolding for a while, he was still puzzled, and his face flushed when he saw it, and the blue veins on his forehead burst out: "Master Huifeng can't do it? Can't Lao Wang do it? Do you have to pick me to be an official and make a wish? This guy, with Why do you think I'm stupid?"

Then came a series of vulgar words, which caused everyone to laugh.
