1627 Rise of the South China Sea

Chapter 838 Lead the snake out of the hole
Nantie asked, "When will that fleet depart from Wenzhou?"

"Just two days later." Song Qing was afraid that he would not believe it, and added: "Boss Zhu's internal response has already inquired about the flight route, and then he will directly set up a card to intercept it."

Nantie moved his mind and said: "So Brother Song also knows the route?"

Song Qing couldn't hear his intentions, she shook her head quickly and said: "The villain doesn't know the route, but if the brothers of the Chuan Gang are willing to join forces, then Mr. Zhu will send someone to lead the way for you at the designated place."

Nan Tie secretly scolded the old fox in his heart, but he didn't know that this was not Song Qing's idea, but Gao Qiaonan had already told him when he sent him out.If the Yueqing Ship Gang believed that Song Qing had also grasped the target's route, then they would probably put aside Song Qing's organization and directly hold Song Qing to the deal alone.What Gao Qiaonan cares about is not Song Qing's life or safety, but whether this will affect Hai Han's plan of inviting the emperor into the urn. If Song Qing is intimidated by the other party and tells the truth, all previous efforts will be wasted.

Song Qing also knew that it was extremely risky for her to come to the Yueqing Ship Gang as a lobbyist. Although the two parties had cooperated in the past, 10 taels of silver was enough to make these ruthless pirates turn their faces and deny anyone.Don't look at how affectionate Nan Tie is when he calls his brothers and sisters. If he says a wrong word, he will immediately become the other party's prisoner. At that time, he will really just get out of the wolf's den and enter the tiger's den.

Although the time is tight, the Southern Railway still insists on the share ratio and refuses to let go. It must be divided equally between both parties before it is willing to dispatch.Song Qing's bargaining with him was just acting, not really trying to compete for benefits. After persisting for a while, he finally backed down a step: "How about this, the villain will bring back the meaning of the third master and tell Boss Zhu, if Boss Zhu agrees Fifty-five percent, then the villain will come here to answer you tomorrow."

Fearing that things might change, Nantie asked, "Then what if Boss Zhu doesn't agree?"

Song Qing thought to himself that Boss Zhu is already dead, it doesn't matter whether he admits it or not, even if you want to monopolize [-]% of it, the victim over there will approve it.You think they are sending money to your door, but what they want is for you to die.

Song Qing pretended to ponder for a while before responding: "This matter is very urgent, and there is not much time to discuss it slowly. In the opinion of villains, it is better to take down this batch of goods first, and how to divide them later, both parties can discuss It's time to sit down and discuss it slowly, what does the third master think?"

Nan Tiexin thought it was reasonable, if there was no result in the fight, when the other fleet crossed the border, everyone would not even be able to get a copper coin.As for the discussion after the fact, at that time, it will not be the case that whoever has the most powerful fist is right. If there is really no agreement, it is not impossible for the group of people who want to rape Zhu Shanhai.

"The business is important. Brother Song is right, so let's settle it like this!" Nantie quickly figured out the stakes, and did not insist on discussing the share clearly.

The two immediately agreed on a time to meet the next day, and Song Qing said goodbye and left.After Nan Tie sent him out of the gate, he quickly turned back to the courtyard and said: "Get the boat ready immediately, I'm going back to Yandang Town!"

Song Qing left the yard of the Yueqing Boat Gang, went to the pier to board the fishing boat that came back, and when he returned to the place where Haihan put him ashore, he saw Haihan's boat was still waiting there, and he felt a strange feeling in his heart. An inexplicable sense of security.

"Is the matter settled?" Gao Qiaonan felt relieved when he saw Song Qing come back.Although Song Qing's brother is here, if Song Qing really wants to run away, it will be very difficult for Haihan to catch him back; I can't come back.No matter what the situation is, it will be very troublesome for Haihan to try to lure the snake out of the hole.

Song Qing bowed his head and replied: "It's a good thing that the villain didn't disgrace his life. He met Nantie, the third leader of the Yueqing Ship Gang. He was so serious that he insisted on a [-]-[-] split. In order to avoid being caught by him, the villain spent more time with him. Finally, he agreed to meet with him tomorrow to make a conclusion. He must have sent people back to Yandang by now. The town reported the letter."

What Song Qing didn't expect was that Nantie was more urgent than he thought, and had already rushed back to Yandang Town to report the letter.If he went back to persuade the Zheng brothers, the possibility of success in this matter would also increase a lot.Gao Qiaonan carefully interrogated Song Qing about the content of the meeting between Song Qing and Nantie. Song Qing did not dare to hide it, so he recalled it and told Gao Qiaonan a little bit.

Takahashi Nan was listening and pondering whether there were any loopholes in Song Qing's words. Although he is not a member of the security department, he has a lot of experience in interrogating various prisoners of war over the years. Is there any fabrication or inappropriateness in Song Qing's description? Part, he can quickly judge.After confirming that Song Qing hadn't made any mistakes, Gao Qiaonan taught him how to guide the other party when they meet next time.

That night, the fleet was stationed at Dongtou Island, about 30 nautical miles away from Yueqing Bay, and Song Qing, who was given the deck release treatment for his outstanding performance, was finally able to witness the true scale of this mysterious armed fleet—except that they were targeting the plundering ships at the beginning. In addition to the few merchant ships and the few warships that chased and bombarded them, there was such a huge fleet hidden behind them.As far as Song Qing could see at this time, there were at least thirty or forty warships, large and small. The largest warship was shaped like a hill, and there was a huge word "Enterprising" on the side of the bow. Not sure if that was the name of the army or that of the ship.

As far as Song Qing knew, the Wenzhou navy was far from such a scale, and the shape of these warships also seemed to be quite different from the navy's Fuchuan.After standing by the boat and looking at it for a long time, a name that he had heard more and more in the past two years suddenly popped up in his heart.

"How could I have never expected that these evil stars came to Zhejiang!" Song Qing compared the fleet in front of him with the rumors he had heard, and he could almost confirm the origin of the fleet .

Haihan is not unknown in Zhejiang. Although Haihan people have never shown their faces here, Haihan products and various magical rumors have already entered Zhejiang folks through various channels.The most widely circulated one about Haihan is the legend that the Haihan people are invincible in all battles.

According to the rumors, the Haihan Militia is full of villains who kill without batting an eyelid, and they are armed with advanced weapons and strong combat power. Although their strength is small, their comprehensive strength has far surpassed that of the Ming army.All the armed forces that fought against the Haihan militia, whether they were Guangdong rogues, Fujian pirates, or Western Fans, were all beaten to the ground, powerless to fight back.Even Xu Xinsu, the commander-in-chief of Fujian, obeyed the Haihan people for no other reason. It was because of the support of the Haihan people that the Fujian Ming army was able to drive Shibazhi out of the Fujian Strait.

Of course, these rumors are just exaggerated bragging to the Zhejiang people who have never really seen the Haihan militia. The Ming Dynasty has always regarded itself as the supreme kingdom, so how could there be a foreigner who is more powerful than the Ming army? Armed?That Haihan was obviously just a group of armed maritime merchants, but he was blown up to the sky for no reason.

Song Qing was also one of the holders of this point of view before that. He believed that even if Haihan’s private armed forces were capable, they were at most similar to the armed maritime merchants in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Not bad.The reason why he was able to achieve such a great reputation in Fuguang and Guangxi provinces probably depended on money to open the way.After all, even in Shibazhi's territory, you can pay tolls in exchange for peace, and what else can't be exchanged for money. Maybe it is possible for those local people to help praise after they get the benefits of the Haihan people.

However, the scene in front of him shattered all of Song Qing's old ideas. He was still a little worried that if the Yueqing Ship Gang really came out, whether this mysterious armed force could handle it, but after seeing the fleet in front of him, he could basically It is certain that there will be only one result for the Yueqing Ship Gang two days later-that is, death.

"What do you think of our fleet?"

When Song Qing was looking at the armed sailboats on the sea in the distance, he suddenly heard Gao Qiaonan's voice coming from behind him, and quickly turned around and said: "I have never seen such a majestic fleet. Today is really an eye-opener." .”

"Do you still doubt whether we can deal with the Yueqing Ship Gang?" Gao Qiaonan continued to ask.

Song Qing bowed his head and replied: "The Yueqing Ship Gang is nothing more than a mob, how can it be compared with your fleet! In the opinion of a villain, the gangsters of the Boat Gang will be captured and wiped out!"

After Song Qing had seen the true face of the Haihan Fleet, the tall hat was sent to Gaoqiao Nantou without money, completely forgetting that he was also a gangster.However, Takahashi Nan asked him not to listen to his flattery, but to calm Song Qing's mind a little bit. After all, he is also an actor now. If he doesn't give him enough confidence, it may affect his subsequent acting skills. .

The next day, Gao Qiaonan also sent Song Qing to the nearby coast, and he went to find a boat to Maoyan Island by himself.But this time Song Qing was in vain, Nantie was not in the courtyard yesterday.Song Qing was also a quick-witted person, so he stuffed a few ingots of broken silver and went out, and found out that Nantie had rushed back to Yandang Town yesterday.

Nantie rushed back in a hurry, what else could happen, even with his toes, Song Qing could think that he was going to persuade the Zheng brothers to send troops.As for whether Nantie can persuade the Zheng brothers, Song Qing has no way to interfere.He can only wait for the news on Maoyan Island now. If the Zheng brothers do not agree to send troops, then Song Qing has to think carefully about how to ask Gao Qiaonan for forgiveness after returning.

Having had lunch in this courtyard at noon that day, Song Qing had been in anxiety for the past two days. At this time, she felt drowsy when she was free, and fell asleep sitting on a chair in the flower hall.He didn't know how long he had slept, but he heard someone calling him: "Brother Song, wake up!"

Song Qing opened his eyes suddenly, and saw Nan Tiezheng with one hand on his shoulder, two brothers Zheng Pingda and Zheng Pinger standing behind him, surrounded by seven or eight personal guards with waist knives.

Song Qing got up quickly and bowed to greet the Zheng brothers: "The villain Song Qing works under Zhu Shanhai Zhu's boss. This time, I specially invited the brothers from the ship gang to join hands. I hope the leaders can help."

The brothers of the Zheng family were fishermen, and although they ate the pirates' food through their ruthlessness, they really didn't have much city mansion to speak of. A big deal of ten thousand taels of silver?"

Song Qing knew that it was Zheng Ping who wanted to confirm with himself that Nantie's report was correct, and immediately responded: "That's true, but this time the idea is a bit tricky, and Boss Zhu is afraid that he won't be able to eat it, so he sent a villain to invite the boat gang Brothers unite."

"It's okay to join forces, but how to divide the accounts afterwards, can Boss Zhu have a certain idea?" Zheng Pinger also interjected impatiently.

Song Qing thought that sure enough, this group of people only cared about the money, and they didn't realize the hidden danger at all, but that's fine, as long as they are led out of Yueqing Bay, he will have a chance to escape.

At the moment Song Qing pretended to be distressed and said: "Boss Zhu planned to donate [-]% of the confiscation to the brothers of the Chuan Gang as a thank you, but after discussing with the third master yesterday, Boss Zhu also felt that you should contribute more. .”

"So it's four or six?" Zheng Pinger asked.

Song Qing nodded silently, waiting for the other party to continue to bargain.Yesterday, when the Southern Railway opened its mouth, it wanted to split five-five. Today, the two masters have come, and it is obviously impossible to lower the conditions than yesterday.Song Qing planned to wait for the other party to call out a [-]-[-] split, and after a few more rounds, he would agree.Anyway, these people won't be able to get a tael of silver in the end, and now it doesn't affect the overall situation if they give up [-]% or less.

"Okay, then four or six, that's it!" Zheng Pingda responded readily, but Song Qing was surprised, but Zheng Pingda continued: "Our ship gang will take [-]%, and the rest will be given to you." Boss Zhu, we have a large number of people and a lot of effort, so it is reasonable to share more money."

Song Qing smiled wryly and said: "It's a condition of being the head of the family, it's not easy for the villain to explain to Boss Zhu when he goes back!"

Zheng Pingda patted Song Qing on the shoulder vigorously and said: "You can tell me what I mean when you go back. What does Boss Zhu have in mind? Let's discuss it after finishing the business! The business is important, and other things will be put aside!"

Song Qing thought in his heart that this meant to be strong. The strength of the Yueqing Ship Gang far surpassed that of Zhu Shanhai.If there is such a big deal, there is a great possibility that the Yueqing Ship Gang will forcibly eat gangsters. In the end, Zhu Shanhai will be lucky to get the share, let alone [-]%.Of course, they couldn't guess that all of this was arranged by someone, and the purpose of Song Qing's bargaining with them was just to lead them into the dug pit step by step.

"Since that's the case, the villain will report the truth and let Boss Zhu make up his mind." Seeing that these people were obsessed with money, Song Qing stopped spending energy on acting.
