Take the warehouse back to the end of the Ming Dynasty

Mao Wenlong looked at the confident Zhao Wen, squinted his eyes and looked carefully.

Could the young man in front of him be lying?Why can he be the guest of Horqin's department?This Horqin family is Huang Taiji's in-laws, can they hand over to a businessman at a low price?

Seeing Mao Wenlong's unbelieving expression, Zhao Wen said, "Believe it or not, I can get you horses anyway, and it doesn't matter how many they are."

"Four hundred horses?"

"a piece of cake."

"What if you lied to me?"

"If I lie to you, I will take off my head and kick it for you."

Mao Wenlong looked at the confident Zhao Wen, and he didn't seem to be fake, so he said, "Then what conditions do you want me to promise you?"

"I want you to rent your pier to me!"

"Presumptuous, do you know what you are talking about?" Before Mao Wenlong got angry, Mao Chengzuo scolded him first.

Just a joke, if I give you the ferry to Phi Island, wouldn’t our Phi Island’s source of income be cut off?In addition, without the ferry, wouldn't it depend on people's faces when going to sea in the future?Four hundred war horses want to exchange for the ferry of Phi Island, which is really a good idea.

"Brother, you don't seem to know the situation in our Dongjiang Town." Mao Wenlong narrowed his eyes and said coldly.

"It's not speculative. Since the general doesn't agree to my conditions, then the war horse will not be discussed. Let me tell you the truth, the main purpose of my coming to Dongjiang Town is for the ferry, not for money." Zhao Wen said coldly. road.

"Except for the transition point, there is nothing to talk about?"

"There's nothing to talk about, general." Zhao Wen stood up from the stool and said in a deep voice.

Zhao Wen's move was to provoke Zhao Daniu on purpose. When a person is furious, it is easier to expose his weakness.

As long as Zhao Wen mastered Mao Wenlong's weakness, he might not give in when the time comes.

Besides, this Mao Wenlong was a brave man in history, Zhao Wen didn't believe that he couldn't control him.

When Mao Wenlong heard this, he slapped the table directly, and scolded: "Do you know who you are talking to?"

At the same time, Mao Chengzuo and others also pulled out their waist knives and pointed them at Zhao Wen.

Not to be outdone, Zhao Daniu and the others directly tore off the linen wrapping 56 and a half, and pointed at them with 56 and a half.

"Who are you guys? How come there are firecrackers?" Mao Wenlong looked at the 56 and a half in the hands of Zhao Daniu and others, and asked in a low voice.

Zhao Wen stood up from the stool, and said with a smile on his face: "I'm not afraid to tell you clearly, I will not change my surname when I sit down, and I will not change my name if I work. My surname is Zhao Mingwen, and I am on guard at Longmen Fort in Xuanfu Town."

Mao Wenlong also stood up slowly, and stared at Zhao Wen with a playful face, "An official as big as a sesame mung bean dares to be arrogant in front of me. Do you know that this is Dongjiang Town, and it is my territory."

"Haha, so what if it's your territory?" Zhao Wen directly pulled the big black star out from his waist, and fired several shots at the roof.

Mao Wenlong looked at the big black star in Zhao Wen's hand with fear on his face, "What kind of firecracker are you? How can you fire continuously?"

In Mao Wenlong's memory, the firecracker can only be fired one shot at a time. When did the firecracker that can fire in succession appear?

The threat of firecrackers is already great, let alone this firecracker that can fire in succession?

"Haha, not only the firecrackers in my hand can fire continuously, but even the firecrackers in the hands of my followers can also fire consecutively. Da Niu, show them a hand."

Zhao Wen turned his head away with a smile on his face, and said calmly to Zhao Daniu.

"Come on!" Zhao Daniu took over the 56 and a half of a personal guard, and opened it directly to the roof.

"Bang bang bang!"

56 and a half gunshots kept ringing in the room, Zhao Wen looked at Mao Wenlong jokingly, "I don't know if I have the right to talk to you now."

"Okay, okay, you're fine. You are the second person besides Yuan Chonghuan who dares to talk to me like this." Mao Wenlong stared at Zhao Wen, and said through gritted teeth.

Although Mao Wenlong was annoyed, there was nothing he could do.Within such a short distance, even if he was wearing armor, he would still be beaten into a hornet's nest.

What kind of firecracker is this?Why is it still firing?Mao Wenlong looked at those 56 and a half, a trace of fear flashed across his face.

Mao Chengzuo and his personal guards also looked at Zhao Wen's followers with apprehension, their eyes full of horror.

The firecrackers are very powerful within a short distance. If they are shot, they will be killed even if they are wearing armor. What's more, the firecrackers in their hands can fire continuously.

Zhao Wen looked at Mao Wenlong jokingly, and said slowly: "I think you should ask your subordinates to put away the weapons, otherwise, if my subordinates go off and hurt you, what should we do?" Woolen cloth?"

"Cheng Zuo, put down your weapons. This Zhao Wen and we are both soldiers of the imperial court, and they are all loyal to the country. What will it look like when swords and soldiers face each other?" Mao Wenlong said hastily.

Under the threat of death, no one can take it calmly.

"Father!"

"If you tell you to put it down, you can put it down!" Mao Wenlong said coldly.

Mao Chengzuo looked at Zhao Wen and cursed secretly, "Put it away!"

Zhao Wen looked at the Dongjiang Town soldiers who put away their weapons, and said to Zhao Daniu, "You guys put away your weapons too."

Chapter 151 I think we can have a good talk

"I'm curious, what are you doing in Dongjiang Town, a guard in Xuan Town? Could it be that you are just here for my ferry in Dongjiang Town?" Mao Wenlong looked at Zhao Wen and asked with a puzzled expression on his face.

This Phi Island is no more than a palm-sized place, and it can't support many people.If he hadn't recruited many merchants by himself, it is estimated that there would be no one in Dukou except himself.

Zhao Wen smiled slightly and said, "Do you know Zheng Zhilong, the general soldier in Fujian?"

"Zheng Zhilong? Is that the one who was a pirate before and was recruited by the court?" Mao Wenlong asked slowly.

Zheng Zhilong's reputation in Daming is not small, how could Mao Wenlong not know about it.

"Do you know what people in the sea called Zheng Zhilong before he was recruited by the court?" Zhao Wenjiong looked at Mao Wenlong with enthusiasm.

Mao Wenlong chuckled, and said, "Emperor Hai, how come I don't know this name? But I have to say, this guy can beat the red-haired barbarians so hard that he doesn't dare to invade my Daming, so he can be considered a hero.

How can this guy say, he, relying on his own navy, has been controlling the sea area of ​​Ming Dynasty.Those who lived on the sea had to pay him a toll, otherwise, they would not even be able to leave the boat.

I don't like Zheng Zhilong's other abilities, but his ability to make money is not bad. "

"I want to be the Emperor of the Sea of ​​Ming Dynasty!" Zhao Wen looked at Mao Wenlong, his eyes were shining brightly.

Mao Wenlong was taken aback for a moment, and then burst out laughing, "What? What did you say? You said you wanted to be the emperor of Ming Dynasty? Are you kidding me? Hahaha!"

Not only Mao Wenlong, but even Mao Chengzuo and those personal guards burst out laughing.

The laughing Mao Wenlong burst into tears.

Zhao Wen picked up the teacup on the table and tasted it by himself.

"General Mao doesn't believe me?" Zhao Wen said slowly, putting down his teacup.

Mao Wenlong put away his smile and said with a playful look: "I really don't believe you. Why do you say you are the emperor of the sea? Do you have a ship? Do you have sailors? Do you have a route? Do you have money?

Brother, listen to me, this sea is not something you can touch.Even the imperial court has to give Zheng Zhilong three points in the sea, let alone you? "

"I have plenty of money. I wonder if you've heard of cement?"

"Cement? I've heard that I wanted to get some cement, but I didn't buy it because I was short of money. Why did you tell me this?" Mao Wenlong looked at Zhao Wen with a puzzled expression.

Zhao Wen said: "This cement is my industry, and now I have opened hundreds of cement kilns in Xuanfu Town, the money is not difficult.

I believe that as long as there is money, there is nothing that cannot be obtained! "

"Cement is actually your industry? Isn't it from Shanxi Merchants?" Mao Wenlong looked at Zhao Wen in horror.

Nowadays, cement is something that everyone knows in Daming. It is easier to use than Sanhe soil, and it is cheaper than Sanhe soil, and it can also reduce the construction period when building the city wall.

Such good things are very popular in Daming, especially in Shanhaiguan. Yuan Chonghuan bought a lot of cement to repair the city wall.

If this cement is really his property, isn't the man in front of him extremely rich?No wonder he dared to say such a thing, not to mention other things, just this amount of financial resources is unmatched by many people.

Zhao Wen said with a smile: "Shanxi merchants are just tools I use to sell cement, nothing more."

"But, you have such a cornucopia, why do you want to go to sea? Although the money at sea is easy to make, it is not very stable. Especially in Luzon, there are a lot of Hongyi and Flangjiyi. These People are greedy for money, so it's hard to guarantee that they won't do anything."

Mao Wenlong couldn't understand, Zhao Wen was so rich, why did he go to sea?To be the emperor of the sea?Isn't it good to just lie at home and take care of the cement kiln?Why not run out?

"You don't have to worry about it. I have my own considerations when I go to sea. Well, if you can give me the ferry, I can give you a part of the shares, and you will also have a share of the profits at sea in the future."

It is inevitable that a person who gets rich will not make others jealous, and this Mao Wenlong is no better than others, this person is the chief soldier of Dongjiang Town.Although his soldiers and horses are not very good, they can fight anyway, and the ferry is in his territory.

If Zhao Wen compulsorily wants to come to the ferry of Phi Island, even if it goes well in the future, it is difficult to guarantee that Mao Wenlong will not be jealous and do some small tricks behind his back.

But if Mao Wenlong was tied to the boat, things would be much easier in the future.

"Shares? What are shares?" Mao Wenlong is good at fighting, but if he puts them in other places, he will be blinded.

Zhao Wen looked at Mao Wenlong who was full of doubts, and explained carefully.

After a long while, Mao Wenlong suddenly realized: "Isn't this the dividend of a partnership business? What do I take it for? But are you so sure that you can make money at sea?

What's more, what should I do if you turn your face and deny anyone after you get the ferry? "

Mao Wenlong's worries are not unreasonable. In this day and age, there are not a few people who turn their faces and deny others.

Among other things, isn't Yuan Chonghuan, the governor of Liaodong, like this?

One moment he was chatting and laughing with you, the next moment he can sue you in a book.

"A contract can be made!" Zhao Wen said loudly.

Mao Wenlong felt relieved when he heard the contract was made, but he didn't want to give him the ferry so easily.

"It's not impossible to give up the ferry to you, but I still have one condition." Mao Wenlong squeezed the beard on his chin, looked at the 56 and a half in the hands of the followers behind Zhao Wen, and said slowly.

"What conditions?"

Mao Wenlong pointed to the 56 and a half in Zhao Daniu's hand, and said, "I want the firecracker in your hand, at least give me five hundred."

As long as he has this firecracker that can fire in bursts, wouldn't it be more comfortable for him to lead troops to harass the Houjin hinterland in the future?

If there are [-] firearms that can fire continuously, then I can walk sideways in Liaodong in the future.What Huang Taiji, what Amin, what Daishan, what Yuan Chonghuan, what Zu Dashou, they all have to go around this town when they see it.

"Five hundred shots? You really dare to open your mouth like a lion!" Zhao Daniu glared at Mao Wenlong and roared with no difficulty.

Zhao Wen couldn't help shaking his head, and said slowly: "Five hundred rods? Do you know what you're talking about? Every shot of this firecracker is a treasure, how can I give it back to you? You can talk about money, just this firecracker no."

"I want a firecracker!"

"no!"

"Four hundred rods."

"no!"

"A hundred shots should do it, right?"

"No, at most fifty shots." Zhao Wen stretched out five fingers and shouted loudly.

The reason why Zhao Wen gave Mao Wenlong fifty guns was not because there were too many weapons to burn.It's that Mao Wenlong is the general soldier of Dongjiang Town, and he wants to establish an outlet on his territory.

Once this estuary is established, it will definitely make a fortune in the future.In case someone covets it, these fifty firecrackers can also protect their exit to the sea.

In addition, Mao Wenlong often went to Houjin hinterland to harass, if there were 56 and a half by then, the success rate would be much higher, and more refugees would be brought back.

The increase in refugees is exactly what Zhao Wen hopes to see.

Of course, it's nothing to give 56 and a half to Mao Wenlong. After all, 56 and a half is not like other firecrackers, only black powder and lead are needed.

The bullets used by these 56 and a half were only Zhao Wenyou.If 56 and a half has no bullets, it might as well be a fire stick.

Therefore, as long as the bullet is controlled, it is equivalent to indirectly controlling Mao Wenlong's soldiers.In this way, Zhao Wen's fifty-six-and-a-half strokes are still in his own hands.

A seaport in exchange for 56 and a half under his control, this business is profitable no matter how you look at it.

Mao Wenlong's face was full of smiles. He slapped the table and said loudly, "Deal!"

Fifty shots is not bad for Mao Wenlong. Judging from the shooting performance just now, each shot of this kind of firecracker can be worth five or six shots or even more of ordinary firecrackers.

And these fifty strokes are almost equivalent to more than 300 strokes of ordinary firecrackers.

But in actual use, more than 300 ordinary firecrackers are simply not comparable to these fifty firecrackers.

Zhao Wen looked at the smug Mao Wenlong, and said in a deep voice, "Do you know what these fifty firecrackers mean? Do you know how far this kind of firecrackers can hit?

Let me tell you directly, this firecracker can hit a maximum of more than 1000 steps, and within [-] steps, even armored soldiers in heavy armor can't stop it.

I can give you fifty guns because of your ferry. If it weren't for your ferry, I wouldn't have given you fifty guns. "

When Mao Wenlong heard this, his face was full of horror, "Aren't you lying to me? This firecracker can hit more than 1000 steps?"

"That's right, you have to pay attention to the bottom line when you deceive people, you are no one to brag. If you can hit a thousand steps, why don't you say you can hit [-] steps? You can hit Shengjing directly from here Where are you going? A thousand steps, you are farther than the cannon in red." Mao Chengzuo looked at Zhao Wen in disbelief.
