Chapter 550: If you want to be stunned, just be stunned to the end

Chen Ao immediately wrote a letter and called a whistleboat to go to Quanzhou quickly.

Just in the shimmering Quanzhou Port, a few days ago, due to pirates, many warehouses were destroyed everywhere. Ordinary maritime merchants were in a panic and did not dare to go out to sea easily at this critical moment. When they saw that maritime merchants refused to ship, they carried the ship out empty-handed, they knew that something big would definitely happen, and they did not dare to act rashly.

The lively scene in Quanzhou suddenly changed. Fortunately, there were also merchant ships returning from the sea, traveling across the ocean and finally came back, but they didn't know what happened. As soon as the merchant ship docked, the civil service office of the Maritime Bureau of the Maritime Bureau boarded the boat and counted the goods, and they had to ask for another security fee.

Only then did everyone realize that something was wrong or something was wrong, and something big would definitely happen.

Whoever sails at sea has no keen sense of smell? Merchants usually live in the inner city, but they ask people to watch every day at the port. If there is anything wrong, they can also show their warning first.

When a Xinghua Navy's sentry ship appeared at the port, it suddenly attracted a lot of eyes. The ship was docked at the dock, and immediately, the people from the Maritime Bureau boarded. Without saying a few words, they blasted them off the ship without hesitation.

You dare to search Jun Ye's ship? He really took the courage of his ambition! Why do you want to fight? Come on, kick the tax collector away with one kick, and then shave two more ears. He wants to go to the Maritime Bureau to file a complaint and let you sue him.

These tax collectors were originally trying to find out the news by searching for ships, but they were beaten back thornfully, but they didn't dare to make a sound and went back in shame. There were roughly more than 20 naval troops in the ship, plus a Yuhou and a lieutenant. When everyone went to the port, they immediately attracted countless people to look at each other. They were not idle, and immediately rushed to the inner city, distributed famous sects everywhere, and paid homage to merchants everywhere.

There are many business groups in Quanzhou, and fellow villagers go out to sea together, so there is some kind of care. Although the local feelings are not reliable enough, they cannot be ignored.

These merchant gangs are roughly divided into prefectures and counties, and are all means for small and medium-sized merchants to connect with self-protection. The biggest of them are Jiannan, Tingzhou, and Fuzhou. For example, the Fuzhou Chamber of Commerce, there are hundreds of merchants and many ships. Usually, the chamber of commerce only pays some operation fees, and a few respected people in the villages take the lead. As long as they are from Fuzhou, the next one will pay a visit to continue the friendship between the countryside, and then register their own ships and pay the fees to obtain the qualification of the merchant gang. When will they go to sea, most chambers of commerce will contact them, set a date, and everyone will go together. In this way, those small and medium-sized merchants can form a fleet of ships, groundwater, and naturally they will not be afraid of pirates.

However, although these chambers of commerce are crowded and powerful, they are usually afraid of the government. They are all ordinary businessmen and there is no shade from big trees. As long as the government asks you, you will have no way to do it.

At this time, several highly respected merchants from major merchants were greeted by the captains and heads of the leaders and handed over the famous sect. When they saw it, they looked like a letter from the imperial envoy Chen Ao Chen. These people were so scared that they looked like earth. If they saw it, they might be punished, but if they didn't see it, how big is Chen Ao? He was a figure who hooked his fingers and told you to take care of it.

After hesitating for a while, he still had to see him, so he invited the person who sent the post, said a few politely, and decided not to turn to the main point. The lieutenant also said directly: "My adult said that business is nothing more than asking for money. This time, the adults ordered the pursuing of maritime affairs, and for the country and the people, it is a good thing. The adults also said that you are all ordinary businessmen. You know whether you will benefit from the future. To tell you the truth, the Xinghua naval army will arrive soon, and you will have to kill people at that time. I believe everyone knows the methods of Lord Shen. It is better to collude with those officials and businessmen to confiscate their homes and destroy the clan. You should think about it yourself."

When the gods fight, what these people are most afraid of is to involve them. They are so scared that they look like earth-tongued and timid. They dare not say anything, and they don’t even dare to make a fart. They just nodded and said, “I understand, I understand.” Although they said this, few people really understand and just waited to watch the fire from the other side of the river.

The man surnamed Chen brought the navy army here, who knows how much the officials and businessmen would punish them? If you just confiscate some silver coins without any pain, you are making trouble with the man surnamed Chen and settle the score in the future, will you still have a way out?

Therefore, the joints must be safe and must not make random promises.

Seeing their statement, the lieutenants said nothing, turned around and left, and then visited the second and third ones. Some of them were bold. When they saw the business opportunities, they understood the benefits of Jingping Maritime Affairs to them. They also turned to Chen Ao in their hearts, but they still dared not promise anything.

The actions of these lieutenants and the navy in Quanzhou were soon heard by the sea merchants. The Cui family was bustling again, and many people came. Cui Jianhui and Hu Hai came out. The old man Zhang was angry and his face flushed. Everyone was there. He was the first to speak. Eunuch Zhang said sternly: "Just just sent people up there, and the people on the Xinghua navy ship dared to hit people. According to the Za family, they were going to completely rebel against us. It would be better if we turned against us. We will not do it, and we will immediately take those lieutenants and navy troops and kill a few for them."

Hu Hai shook his head: "You can't move. After all, they are soldiers. It's still not good to take people at this time and look at them with so many eyes."

Cui Jian said: "What did they do when they visit the merchant gangs? There are also many sailors under these merchant gangs. Could it be that the surname Chen is looking for help?"

Eunuch Zhang sneered: "These merchants are all following the rules and expect them, hehe... it's not that the miscellaneous people can talk big, but a tax collector can manage them well. Lord Hu, Mr. Cui, do you want the miscellaneous people to hit them?"

Hu Hai shook his head and said, "No, you can't go. Hitting them at this time will cause public outrage at that time will not do us well. In my opinion, the Chen surnamed is coming soon."

Cui Jian said tiredly: "I haven't had a good sleep for several days. I'm thinking about this. The Shen army is the official army. If we want to deal with it, we can only disguise ourselves as thieves. However, if the Xinghua navy suddenly arrives in Quanzhou and our ship is on the island outside, it is now a situation where the far water cannot save the fire. Our ship will come early or late, let's talk about it, what should we do?"

Hu Haidao: "Can the local wing army delay time?"

The Xiang army sitting in the corner commanded, "There are more than 4,000 people in Quanzhou. It is no problem to guard all ports. The Chen surname is really here, and it is not a problem to delay for a few days."

Cui Jian sighed and said, "This matter is settled. Send more sentry ships and pay attention to the actions of Xinghua Army at any time."

Everyone dispersed, leaving only Cui Jian, Eunuch Zhang and Hu Hai. Cui Jian said: "We must make the worst plan. If it really doesn't work, we can only go out to sea with our whole family."

Eunuch Zhang frowned and said, "The current situation has not yet broken down, Mr. Cui is so relieved."

Hu Hai gritted his teeth and said, "It has been arranged to be foolproof. There is our people outside to support him and there is a xiang army inside, so there is no problem."

The three of them discussed for a while before saying goodbye to each other.

But everyone in Quanzhou Port knew that the imperial envoy was about to arrive, but no one could predict what Quanzhou would look like.

…………………………………………………………………………………………

The navy was well underway, and the wardrobe had been arranged, but the whole way was unblocked. Taking advantage of this kung fu, the navy could not be idle. When the time came, they would go to the deck to practice. The lieutenants were urging them to go to the flagship side every few days to discuss the battle.

Chen Ao's idea has been made, and there is only one instruction to everyone: "You must be quick, and you can't give Quanzhou a breath. Once you arrive in Quanzhou, you will go ashore immediately. Whoever dares to stop him will kill him for the crime of treason and defeat the Xiang army. How long will it take?"

Zhou Chu pondered for a moment and said, "I'm afraid it's not easy. If they resisted it wholeheartedly, they wouldn't be able to win it in just a few days."

Chen Ao shook his head and said, "Resist? What are they resisting? If they don't resist, they will be soldiers. If they resist, they will be bandits! So at this time, momentum is the most important thing. You must scare them. Whoever takes action first will kill them. Within one day, I will control the entire Quanzhou."

Zhou Chu said: "I'm afraid that the pirates will attack again when the time comes. I and a few people from Xinghua Army estimated that there were about five or six thousand pirates on the sea on Fujian Road. In addition, the manpower and ships released by the officials and businessmen, the number of people is probably less than 20,000."

So many people are prepared again. Only God knows whether the Xinghua Navy can resist it.

Chen Ao just sneered, his eyes looked murderous, and said, "So you should be quick. If you control Quanzhou, you will turn the entire Quanzhou city into a hell on earth. Any official and businessman does not have to find evidence of crime. You can just drag your family out and kill them, and you don't have to keep any of them, kill them all!"

The coaches were shocked and couldn't help but say in surprise: "Do you kill them all? This..."

Chen Ao gritted his teeth and said, "I am the imperial envoy telling you that at this point, it is already a war. There are not so many rules in the war, and there is no need to worry about any rules. To uproot these officials and businessmen, so that ordinary maritime merchants can know who is the master and who is willing to serve us. When the pirates come, they will be willing to contribute their efforts. Besides, after the officials and businessmen have finished their eggs, the fleet they release will be without leaders, which will be easier to deal with. Since they dare to act as pirates, do I dare not kill people? Do you really think that I, Chen Lengzi, is fake?"

Zhou Chu widened his eyes and said in surprise: "Sir, do you know your nickname outside?"

Chen Ao did not feel ashamed, but instead curled his lips with honor: "They are too polite and praised me as a flower. Since that's the case, I can't let them down! If you want to be stunned, just be stunned to the end!"
