Plane hunting

Chapter 42
It was evening when Huang Shaohong returned to Baozhilin. In the flower hall, Joanna was waiting for him with the frightened Aunt Thirteen. As soon as she saw him enter the gate, Aunt Thirteen immediately greeted him and asked with concern: " Feihong, I heard something happened today, is it all right?"

Huang Shaohong waved his hand and said: "It's okay, it's just that the case of Jishan's abduction and trafficking of women was committed. General Wiggins cooperated with the admiral to arrest Jishan. Unexpectedly, the American fought back desperately, and both sides suffered!"

As he spoke, he glanced at the female apprentice Joanna with some embarrassment. This apprentice is British after all, and he did something to Wiggins himself. I don't know if she will have bad thoughts.

Zhurourong had already reported to him about the British ship today. At that time, Zhurourong took a group of brothers pretending to be vegetable vendors and successfully boarded the American merchant ship.

However, when the attack was launched, because the British and American ships were docked very close, after the British ship heard gunshots and American cries for help, some soldiers shot at this side, and injured two militia brothers.

In a rage, Zhurou Rong asked the two militia brothers to use the small artillery on the American merchant ship to fire at the British ship, directly bombarding his mother.

The members of the militia are all from the Black Banner Army, and it’s easy to play with artillery, and they can explode when they are set up. This is why Huang Shaohong and the others heard thunderous explosions and saw British ships on fire when they were watching a play in the theater. , That was actually Zhurourong and the others bombarding them.

When the British were about to fire back, the second militia team arranged by Huang Shaohong had already rushed up. These black flag soldiers were merciless in killing the foreign devils, and killed the few British soldiers stationed on the ship. .

Fortunately, they did it neatly and did not leave any foreign devils alive. When Wiggins' men and those British soldiers who went ashore to have fun came back, they saw that the soldiers who stayed behind were killed and the ship was bombarded by the United States. , will naturally believe the government's statement that the Americans attacked them.

It would be thought that General Wiggins cooperated with the official uniform to arrest Jishan, which caused the Yankees to attack them.

And these living foreign devils will report the preconceived news, and the British side will naturally lean towards the soldiers' rhetoric. As for the subsequent investigation, with the cover of the government, the British will naturally not find any mistakes in the land of China.

As for this matter, Huang Shaohong knew that he couldn't hide it from the foreign girl apprentice in front of him. After all, Joanna lived in Baozhilin these days, and he didn't believe that the other party didn't notice anything.

Sure enough, as the daughter of a nobleman, Joanna was obviously not ignorant of the world as she appeared on the surface. She first called out in jerky Chinese: "Master!"

Then he said in English: "Wiggins has nothing to do with our family, and I don't agree with some of his practices."

Huang Shaohong couldn't help secretly praising her, the smart woman must have sensed her embarrassment, so she said something to the point to reassure herself.

He nodded and didn't say any more, he just asked Lin Yunkai to continue to ask Aunt Shisan and Joanna to learn martial arts after dinner, and at the same time reciprocated and said to Joanna:

"Our Chinese martial arts are extensive and profound. If you want to learn something deep, you have to pass the language test. Otherwise, no matter how hard you work, what you learn in the end will only be superficial!"

After listening to Aunt Thirteen's translation, Joanna showed a smile on her face and bowed playfully: "Thank you, Master, I'm already studying with Diana."

After everyone finished their dinner, Huang Shaohong and Zhu Rourong left Baozhilin and came to a courtyard near the wharf. This is the stronghold of the militia, and all the equipment used for the militia's drills are kept here.

This time, Jishan's boat was copied, and the money and jewels obtained were naturally inconvenient to take back to Baozhilin, so Zhurourong arranged for the militiamen to transfer them here.

As soon as Huang Shaohong came in, he found that all the members of the militia had arrived. In the house and the yard, there were people standing densely. Seeing him coming in, these people saluted at the same time: "Master Huang!"

Huang Shaohong clasped his fists left and right: "Brothers, you have worked hard!"

The crowd automatically separated a passage, Zhurourong led him into the room where the loot was stored.

Huang Shaohong could clearly feel that when he entered this room, he only glanced at the fiery eyes of the militia brothers around him, instead of going up to check, he asked Zhu Rourong:

"I'll talk about these things later, take me to see the injured and dead brothers first!"

Although this operation was a surprise attack, casualties were unavoidable due to the musket fire. Among the militia brothers who were the first to board the American merchant ship, one was killed on the spot and the other two were slightly injured.

When he said this, those fiery-eyed people immediately felt guilty, and at the same time looked at Huang Shaohong with more respect.

Huang Shaohong went to see his dead brother and some of the injured, telling them to rest in peace and recuperate, and he would never lose his brother.

After looking at the wounded, Huang Shaohong took Zhurourong, and under the expectant eyes of other militia brothers, he came to the room where the money was placed again, and began to check the harvest this time.

Huang Shaohong glanced at it roughly, and couldn't help but click his tongue secretly. Ji Shan, an American, really made a lot of money, but this product has no artistic talent, except for gold and silver, it is jewelry, and there is no antique or anything.

The "Yuanbao Yellow Fish" with the characteristics of the times were placed neatly, and a large box was filled with them.

In addition, there are seven or eight boxes of silver dollars, which can be said to be a huge wealth. With the accumulation of human trafficking, you can't save this money for a few years, and even if you earn this money, you will never put it on the boat.

"Where did this kindness get so much money?" Huang Shaohong couldn't help but whispered to himself the question in his heart.

Zhu Rourong at the side heard this, and quickly took out a piece of oil-wrapped stuff from a wooden box in the corner and handed it to Huang Shaohong: "Master, we found this on an American ship!"

Huang Shaohong peeled off the greased paper, only to see a black grease-like thing inside, he immediately understood: "This is Fushou cream!"

At this moment, he still doesn't know that Ji Shan is actually an opium dealer. Every time he comes to China, he smuggles opium.

"Damn it, good kill!" At this moment, Huang Shaohong suddenly felt that beating Jishan to death like that was too lenient for him, not to mention how many Chinese people were harmed by the opium he transported, even when he returned to China, he would abduct and sell the people of China for sale. Qian is simply insane, killing him a hundred times is not too much.

Huang Shaohong threw down the drugs, turned around and looked at the militia brothers inside and outside the house, and saw that these people were looking at him expectantly, he knew that these brothers were waiting for the money.

He didn't procrastinate, and smiled immediately: "Fen the money!"
