I just want Zheng Zhilong to live well!

Even if he is going to die, he has to die after he returns to Beijing with me!

Seeing Mu Yongyuan shaking his head, he quickly gave the order.

"Send someone out to look for it!"

"You want to see people alive, you want to see corpses when you're dead!"

"No need!"

Just then, Xiong Wencan's voice came from outside.

Li Chaoqin glanced sideways upon hearing the voice, and saw that both he and Zheng Zhilong looked as if their faces were about to droop to the ground, and their clothes, which should have been clean, were now covered with charcoal dust, and were black, as if they had just come out of a coal mine.

Seeing them come back, Li Chaoqin couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and asked curiously, pointing at their clothes.

"What have you two been doing? How did you end up like this?"

Xiong Wencan swung his sleeves and looked at him unhappily: "If Captain Li has nothing to do, can't he go to a brothel to have some fun?"

"At worst, you can even go to the street and molest decent women!"

"Why are you touching the Zhou family?"

"Even if you want to move, can you let us know before you do it?"

Li Chaoqin:? ?

Damn it?

This old bear dares to talk to me in this tone?

"What do you mean, Master Xiong?"

Xiong Wencan became furious when he heard this and yelled, pointing at Li Chaoqin's nose.

"What do you mean?"

"When Brother Zheng and I sat down at Shi Bangyao's place yesterday, we heard someone say that you closed the Zhou's Grain Store!"

"If it weren't for Shi Bangyao's foresight, I'm afraid you wouldn't even be able to see the sun today!"

"Also, we had already found out about the Zhou family's granary, but you caused them to become alerted by this!"

"A fire in the middle of the night burned dozens of granaries and at least tens of thousands of tons of grain to ashes!"

"Who do you think should be blamed for this?"

Li Chaoqin was stunned.

The reason why these two guys acted like niggers was that they went to the fire scene?

wrong!

They actually found the Zhou family's granary? !

Also, with such a big fire, how come I didn’t receive any news at all in the city?

He ignored Xiong Wencan's questioning and quickly asked back.

"Where is the Zhou family's granary?"

"So much food, and you just watched it all burn up in a fire?"

Zheng Zhilong sighed and shook his head.

"It's in a village 20 miles east of the city, by the Longxi River!"

"When we arrived, the fire had already started. Someone had poured kerosene into the granary, so we couldn't put it out at all."

"According to the time, it should be someone who ran away from the Zhou family after you fought with the Zhou family who did it."

"Prefect Shi has led his men to follow the trail, but we don't know if we can catch up!"

After hearing this, Li Chaoqin finally understood why Shi Bangyao left with the cavalry after dispersing the bandits.

However, when he learned the truth, he almost shed tears.

Damn!

After a busy day, he almost lost his life in Zhou's family.

It turned out to be more of a hindrance than a help?

If I hadn't acted on impulse and targeted the Zhou family, wouldn't the granary have been completely sealed off?

Tens of thousands of tons of grain...

Gone!

If this matter were to get to His Majesty's ears, wouldn't he be slapped to death?

He looked at Xiong Wencan, then at Zheng Zhilong, and felt very nervous.

or......

Silence?

If they fail to persuade them to surrender, the most they will get is a beating, and they will say that these two guys were killed by pirates who came ashore!

Once this thought came to my mind, it was like a curse that could not be shaken off.

Even his eyes began to glance at Xiong Wencan and Zheng Zhilong's necks intentionally or unintentionally...

After looking at their necks, I looked at their stomachs...

Where is the best place to make the cut?

Chapter 100 Captain Li, what else do you have to say!

Xiong Wencan was so angry that he didn't even bother to look at Li Chaoqin. He had no idea what Li Chaoqin was planning.

However, Zheng Zhilong had been paying attention to Li Chaoqin's reaction.

I noticed that this guy looked at my neck and then at my lower body, and I always felt something was wrong.

I heard that...

You will learn from the people you follow.

This guy seems to be Wei Yan’s godson!

He shuddered suddenly, took a few steps back, and subconsciously used his hands to protect his vital parts.

Damn it, I'm not afraid of him openly, but he won't drug me secretly, right?

When he thought of this, his mind raced, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he looked at Xiong Wencan and said.

"Master Xiong, I think what Master Li did yesterday was not completely useless!"

"Although it may alert the enemy, it also has the effect of luring them out of their hole!"

Xiong Wencan suddenly became alert and asked quickly, "What do you mean?"

Zheng Zhilong carefully walked around Li Chaoqin and explained to Xiong Wencan.

"The Zhou family's grain store was just closed down during the day, and they set fire to their own granary at night. What does this mean?!"

"This means that the food in his granary has no clear origins at all!"

"They're trying to destroy the evidence!"

"Since the Zhou family has taken such an action, there is no guarantee that the Wen, Liu, and Kong grain stores will not follow suit!"

"Even if they don't do it so thoroughly, there will definitely be other actions."

"For example, transferring food, or destroying accounts, or..."

Having said that, he suddenly slapped his thigh.

"Oops!"

For some things, no one can imagine what kind of changes will happen until they happen.

It's like two old ladies swearing on the street. They don't know what nasty words they will say next until they finish the previous one.

This was Zheng Zhilong's state at the moment!

As soon as he said the first two guesses, another extremely terrifying idea popped up.

Xiong Wencan was shocked by his reaction: "What's wrong?"

Li Chaoqin also pricked up his ears and temporarily suppressed the idea of ​​silencing the person.

Zheng Zhilong rubbed his frozen hands, put them to his mouth and blew a breath of hot air, then looked at Xiong Wencan with a serious expression.

"What do you think is the best way for us to stop investigating this?"

Xiong Wencan frowned: "Report to His Majesty and find all kinds of reasons to transfer us away?"

"No!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he shook his head to deny this speculation.

"This is too troublesome. Besides, it will take at least a month to go back and forth to the capital!"

"One month is enough to find evidence against them!"

Suddenly, his pupils dilated and he looked at Zheng Zhilong in disbelief.

"Quiet?"

"How dare they?!"

Zheng Zhilong asked back: "Why not? Didn't Captain Li almost die in Zhou's house yesterday?"

“That’s just the Zhou family!”

"If several groups in Zhangzhou Prefecture unite and kill us quietly, and then put the blame on the pirates..."

Xiong Wencan and Li Chaoqin both felt cold all over.

This guess is terrible!

No, it is very likely what the next few companies will do!

They were able to gain a foothold in this coastal area and pass it down from generation to generation. Who would believe it if they said they had no connection with pirates?

What's more, this speculation came from Zheng Zhilong's mouth.

No one has more say than him about things at sea!

Did the pirates usurp the throne and kill Zheng Zhilong?

That totally makes sense!

Pirates went ashore to rob and accidentally killed the imperial envoy?

There’s nothing wrong with that either!

Li Chaoqin couldn't hold it anymore, so he broke the silence first, looked at the two of them and asked.

"What should we do? We can't just sit there and wait for death, right?"

He couldn't care less about silencing people now.

If there is a way to solve the current problem, he would even accept a godfather!

If you can't solve it, it's better to run away...

But it was not the case with Xiong Wencan. He stared at Zheng Zhilong for a long time, and the nervous expression on his face gradually disappeared.

Then, he suddenly burst into laughter.

"Ha ha ha ha........."

"I am guarding the Dragon King, but I am still worrying about those shrimp soldiers and crab generals. I am really going backwards as I grow older!"

"Brother Zheng, I'm afraid this matter depends on you!"

Zheng Zhilong's face was still serious.

"Don't be careless!"

"It will take at least three to five days for Zheng's brothers to get here."
