The Most Powerful Man in the World
Page 331
As they spoke, they saw a group of people threw a silver note each, and there were more than a dozen silver notes on the table, adding up to a million taels.
Even the murderous pirates like Wang Hai couldn't help but breathe a little short when they looked at the banknotes.
This is a million taels of silver bills, which means that you can use these anonymous silver bills to go to Yinzhuang to withdraw millions of taels of silver.
A murderous intent flashed in Wang Hai's eyes, and he seemed to be hesitating, but at this moment, one of the men in black robe seemed to see Wang Hai's thoughts, sneered, and said with a hoarse voice: "Haibawang, Since we dare to take out these gold and silver, we are not afraid of you being black and black, you can try it out, if you kill us all here today, will you be able to leave Songjiang Mansion alive tomorrow!"
Eyes shrunk, Wang Hai groaned in his heart, but he laughed loudly and said: "What do you guys say, don't you still believe my Wang Hai's reputation, money is easy to do things, Chu Yi, I'll kill it!"
Several people in black robes were not at all surprised by Wang Hai's decision. As Wang Hai himself said, he only recognized the money and didn't say anything else. , he dares to do it.
If it wasn't for this, they had planned for so long to choose Wang Hai as their partner, why didn't they come for Wang Hai's name?
Several people in black robes stood up and left directly. Before leaving, one of them said to Wang Hai: "I hope you can give us a surprise, Haibawang."
"I, Haibawang, have never missed a beat. You should wait for the good news of Chu Yi's ascension!"
From the morning to the afternoon, when the evening was approaching, there was a twilight on the horizon, and the officials who had been waiting in the port for most of the day were all very tired. Suddenly, one person was exclaimed: "Everyone Look, there are so many ships!"
Everyone's spirits were shocked, and they looked into the sea, only to see a lot of black spots on the sea in the distance. The bigger black spots are actually big ships.
Dozens of officials headed by Xu Bang, the prefect of Songjiang Prefecture, were instantly refreshed, the tiredness on their faces disappeared, and their eyes were staring at the sea in the distance.
One after another big ships gradually appeared in the sight of everyone. There were hundreds of big ships in a dark place. When they were far away, they didn't feel it. But when hundreds of big ships approached the port, at a glance, The blackness covered the sea, and the momentum was astonishing.
As the first large ship docked, the dull and rich horn sounded, and hundreds of large ships entered the port continuously.
Needless to say, the first big ship headed was naturally Chu Yi's car, and a few figures got off the ship, it was Lin Pingzhi and Yu Dayou.
The first thing that Lin Pingzhi and Yu Dayou saw was Xu Bang and other officials who were waiting there respectfully. Seeing Lin Pingzhi and the others come down, Xu Bang and several officials hurried forward and bowed their hands to Lin Pingzhi and Yu Dayou. "In Xubang, the prefect of Songjiang Prefecture, I have come here to greet His Royal Highness King Wu's triumphant return. We have set up a banquet in the city for His Highness to take care of the wind and dust. I also ask His Highness to appreciate the light. Your Highness, Chitose, Chitose, Chitose!"
As the representative of Chu Yi, Lin Pingzhi was greeted by Xu Bang and other officials, and then he said, "Your Highness understands the wishes of your lords, but His Highness has been on the boat for many days, and it was quite exhausting. This banquet should not be another day. Bar!"
Hearing what Lin Pingzhi said, Xu Bang and other officials were naturally quite disappointed. Fortunately, everyone had a certain psychological preparation in advance, and naturally they would not show disappointment, but nodded: "This is What an adult said is that His Highness has traveled far across the ocean, and now he has returned triumphantly, and he is indeed very tired. I have chosen a manor with excellent scenery in the city for His Highness to rest, and His Highness Wanwang should not refuse!"
Lin Pingzhi thought it would be fine if he refused the banquet of these officials, but he never thought that these officials even had a place to rest, and he didn't know how to reply for a while.
At this moment, a loud voice said: "Pingzhi, since it is the will of the adults, if this king refuses again, it will be too inhumane, so he will rest in the city for a while. late!"
A figure appeared on the side of the ship and walked down the ladder slowly, followed by several generals and servants next to him. Between the dragons and tigers, an invisible power rushed to the face, who was not Chu Yi?
Seeing Chu Yi's figure, Xu Bang and the others suddenly lit up, and they all stepped forward, bowed down a few meters away, and saluted Chu Yi extremely respectfully.
In the port, as the large ships entered the port, a team of soldiers disembarked first and blocked the surrounding area when Lin Pingzhi and Yu Dayou disembarked.
Although Chu Yi was not worried that someone would harm him at all, as a subordinate, it didn't matter whether Chu Yi's cultivation was high or not, what was important was that they had to do their best to ensure Chu Yi's safety.
If someone threatened Chu Yi at close range, even if the opponent was easily slapped to death by Chu Yi, that would be their dereliction of duty.
The surrounding area was completely blocked, and no one else was allowed to approach within a radius of several dozen feet.
In a merchant ship, the big man with a scar on his face clearly saw Chu Yi step by step down the big ship from the lookout hole of the cabin with the help of the telescopic mirror in his hand.
Wang Hai's eyes were full of excitement. He was an outlier among the pirates. Those pirates made their living by looting merchant ships. Although Wang Hai was also a pirate, under his leadership, he was a pirate. The pirates are more like a group of killers who make money and fight disasters with others.
It seems that there is no difference between killing ordinary people and killing officials. Both are the same, but what kind of identity Chu Yi is, even Wang Hai knows that once he succeeds in assassinating Chu Yi, he will definitely become famous all over the world. Knowing that, at that time, no one in the world will not know the name of Wang Hai.
As for failure, Wang Hai never thought about it. He didn't think he could stumble and fail when he was fully prepared.
Seeing that Chu Yi walked towards Xu Bang and several officials, Wang Hai silently counted the distance in his heart, and suddenly, Wang Hai roared: "Send the order, immediately bombard me, and give me all the bombs. Launch in the shortest possible time."
There was a loud bang, and then, in the port, several inconspicuous merchant ships suddenly burst into roars, and a door of artillery was aimed at the shore and shot.
Several merchant ships and more than a dozen cannons locked on the area where Chu Yi and Xu Bang were located. The smoke filled with gunpowder, the shells flew indiscriminately, and the stump of a broken arm could be seen flying.
[Seven thousand words, I will code another one later. 】
ps: Lu Wu, who inherited the legacy of the ancestors in the underworld, has been very worried recently.
Because the ancestor not only left nothing but the false name of Fujun, even the original subordinates all betrayed and divided up the territory that belonged to him.
In this case, Lu Wu relied on the artifact developed by his ancestors to start building a game server, extradite players in the world, and made main quests, dungeons, plots, NPCs, etc., relying on the power of players, and started his own road of conquest. Welcome to "I'm Behind the Scenes"
Chapter 3: Unfinished Head [[-] More]
"Escort, where is the personal guard, hurry up and escort!"
As the king of Daming, Chu Yi has his own king frame. Now he is suddenly bombarded, and the guards around him are immediately divided into two groups. Some of them are madly coming towards Chu Yi. The body was Chu Yi to resist the artillery fire, while the other part went straight to the merchant ships that were frantically firing artillery shells.
Amidst the smoke of gunpowder, Chu Yi looked calm, with his hands behind his back, his figure was erratic, flickering from left to right, even though the fragments of the cannonball flew around, none of them could hurt Chu Yi, not even the corner of his clothes.
With a ding sound, a silver needle shot out, but it blocked a shell fragment and blocked a fatal blow for Yu Dayou.
With Chu Yi's cultivation, even in the midst of a hail of bullets, unless he wanted to kill himself, the fire guns and artillery shells of this era could not threaten his safety.
Of course, if it's the kind of modern artillery shells and barrages, even if Chu Yi's cultivation level is higher, it will only be torn apart.
However, Chu Yi looked at the shells that exploded around him, and his expression gradually became gloomy.
This is a blooming bullet, especially when you feel the power of the shell blasting, it is simply a blooming bullet that has been improved by his arrangement.
Although this shell is not a top secret, but the shells created are guarded by special personnel, so it is unlikely that the civilians will appear.
However, now the person who assassinated him was able to take out the explosive bombs, which can be called the most powerful weapons in the Ming army, to deal with him, which meant that the explosive bombs had already flowed out.
Although it was said that he had been psychologically prepared, when he really faced it, Chu Yi was full of murderous intentions.
Even if he kills many officials, he still cannot replace all the officials. Even if he replaces all the officials, can he still guarantee that these newly replaced officials will be honest and law-abiding, and will serve the people wholeheartedly? ?
Even if it is the Chinese and military officials of the court, first Chu Yi, then Zhu Houzhao, the two rulers and ministers have not been able to replace all the officials in the court. Even now, there are still at least half of the civil and military officials in the court. .
Chu Yi does not find it strange to resell ordnance supplies. Some people are daring. For the sake of gold and silver, there is nothing they dare not do. It is not uncommon for the device to be sold if it is sold.
The bombardment was unified, and at least a dozen or so explosive shells exploded all around, and the fragments flew around.
At least the situation of Xu Bang and other officials who have been affected is very bad. Even if the target of those desperadoes under Wang Hai is Chu Yi, they can't perfectly control the placement of the shells. Some Errors are also normal.
But it was this error that allowed Chu Yi to save his life by virtue of his cultivation, while Xu Bang and other officials suffered the disaster of Chiyu.
Among the dozen or so officials, at least two officials lost their lives on the spot. As for the other officials, they were either extremely embarrassed or injured. Even Xu Bang's arm was slashed by shell fragments.
On the merchant ship, Wang Hai's figure had long since disappeared. How could an old fox like Wang Hai put himself in danger.
When the first shell was fired, Wang Hai jumped into the sea and disappeared into the port like a fish.
As for Wang Hai's subordinates, they are also a group of strong people. When Chu Yi's escorts drove the boats to board the merchant ships, these people had already escaped.
Yu Dayou, who was waiting for the news, was disheartened and looked quite embarrassed. When he learned from the mouths of his subordinates that he had not caught an assassin, Yu Dayou went into a frenzy at a young age, and reprimanded these subordinates with his head down. .
Xu Bang's forehead was covered in cold sweat at this moment. Standing in front of Chu Yi, he didn't know that his arm was hurting, and he didn't know that he was frightened by the sudden assassination.
He is the prefect of Songjiang Prefecture, and the port of Shanghai is under the jurisdiction of Songjiang Prefecture. If Chu Yi was attacked in this port, if there was such a little accident, a prefect in his district would definitely not be able to stop Lei Teng's anger from the emperor. what.
No one in the officialdom knows the deep friendship between Chu Yi and Zhu Houzhao. If something happened to Chu Yi, it would be strange if Zhu Houzhao, the son of the emperor, didn't get angry.
Even if he saw that Chu Yi was safe and sound, Xu Bang felt uneasy in his heart, as if his parents had died, he knelt in front of Chu Yi and kept saying: "Xiaguan is guilty, Xiaguan is guilty, please punish Your Highness. what!"
Behind Xu Bang were several officials. These officials were lucky, at least they were not killed by shelling like their colleagues.
At this moment, he knelt there like Xu Bang, with a look of fear on his face.
Chu Yi glanced at Xu Bang and the others, then waved his hand and said, "This king is not the kind of person who doesn't make sense. In this matter, although it is said that you are guilty of oversight, it is not your fault for waiting. will explain."
"Your Highness is merciful, Your Highness is merciful..."
Several officials thought that they must be finished this time, and even if they were not held accountable, their official uniforms would be taken off.
But what they didn't expect was that Chu Yi was so good at talking, and he didn't mean to hold them accountable.
Chu Yi glanced at Xu Bang and said, "Lead the way, and take this king to rest!"
Here Xu Bang hurriedly led Chu Yi to the manor they had prepared to rest. It seemed that he was stimulated by the bombardment, but Xu Bang was a little worried about whether there would be any problems with the manor they had prepared, so Xu Bang was a little worried. While Bang took Chu Yi, he sent people back quickly, and then ordered the manor to be carefully searched to prevent assassins from sneaking in.
The entire port was completely blocked, and the soldiers who were originally escorting a huge amount of wealth now only left a part to guard the fleets entering the port, and part of them came to the port to dig three feet deep to capture suspicious people.
On a merchant ship, a figure sat there, his face full of joy, he put down the telescopic mirror in his hand, and muttered: "The big thing is done, even if Chu Yi has the means to reach the sky, it is still impossible to escape the cover of artillery fire. , Chu thief, you are afraid that you will never dream that you will die under the gunpowder developed by your own life!"
It can be seen that this person is very proud. Seeing that Chu Yi was drowned in a cloud of gunpowder smoke, this person concluded that Chu Yi must have died under the cover of artillery fire.
It wasn't just one person who was staring at this scene secretly. After all, there were more than one person who went to see Wang Hai before. Although everyone could not tell each other the details of each other, they had some guesses about the identity of the other party.
At this moment, someone was angrily and smashed the telephoto mirror on the wall.
With a click, the extremely valuable telescopic mirror was shattered into pieces and scattered on the ground.
"Damn it, won't this kill him?"
Obviously, this person saw Chu Yi's figure through the telescope. Obviously, he never thought that Chu Yi was still standing there alive under the shelling.
You must know that in order to assassinate Chu Yi this time, they spent a lot of effort, and even the explosive bomb was only obtained by one of them after clearing the relationship.
I thought it was safe to do so, but I didn't expect Chu Yi to be unharmed when the bombardment came down.
All around, all the soldiers were boarding merchant ships to forcibly search, and any suspicious people were directly tied up and taken away without saying a word.
The scene of Chu Yi being shelled in the port just now was seen in the eyes of all the people. In this case, all the fools knew that Chu Yi must be furious.
In the face of these officers and soldiers, it is enough to cooperate honestly. If anyone dares to resist, even if it is not the one who assassinated Chu Yi, in this limelight, I am afraid that it will not end well.
The county seat of Shanghai is not too big, but because of the existence of the port, with the opening of the sea, a large number of maritime merchants gathered. As a result, the county seat appears to be very prosperous.
An elegant and quiet manor appeared in sight, and Xu Bang, who was leading the way in front, said to Chu Yi, "Your Highness, this is the residence of an old imperial censor, but the descendants of the old censor are not successful and will be defeated. Family business, sold this piece of family business to Meng Yi, a wealthy businessman in the city, Meng Yi has always admired His Highness, and deliberately cleaned out this house to welcome His Highness."
Chu Yi frowned, Xu Bang and other people have been quietly paying attention to the change in Chu Yi's expression, and now seeing Chu Yi frowning slightly, he quickly responded: "Don't misunderstand, Your Highness, this member of Meng Yi is outside. He is a well-known good person in Shanghai County. He has built bridges and paved roads for more than ten years and helped the government to provide relief to the victims. He is the number one good person in Shanghai County. He is loved by the people and has a high prestige. Nothing can compare to it.”
Chu Yi said in surprise: "Oh, I never thought that there are such good people in this county."
The footsteps paused slightly, only to hear Chu Yi say: "Since this is the case, this king will see Meng Wai! It's better to thank him in person, after all, this house is the private property of the Meng family! But this king wants to accept his love."
Xu Bang was slightly taken aback and said: "Xiaguan Xianxie thanked His Highness on behalf of Meng Yuanwai. I believe that if Meng Yuanwai knew that His Highness was willing to give him a chance to meet him, he would definitely be very excited."
Saying that, Xu Bang nodded to a trusted yamen behind him and said, "Chen Bantou, you go to find Meng Yuanwai immediately, and then tell Meng Yuanwai that it was His Highness who summoned him, please come quickly!"
Meng family mansion
At this moment, the Meng family is a piece of white flowers, with filial piety cloth hanging. In the mourning hall, an old man is carefully putting a head together with the body.
ps: [-] words in three shifts, beautiful.
Chapter 1 How can I meet people [[-] more]
The Meng family is not an ordinary family in the city. In the past ten years, the Meng family has really built bridges and paved roads and helped the victims. It can be said that the reputation among the people is definitely one of the best.
As the eldest son of Meng Yi, Meng Ping has been doing business abroad all the year round. In the impression of the people in Shanghai County, Meng Yi, a member of the staff, was doing business abroad all year round in the early years, and the Meng family was only supported by orphans and widowed mothers.
In recent years, Meng Yi seems to have handed over the family business to his eldest son, Meng Ping, while he himself has settled in the county. He usually makes friends with some literati and writers. In everyone's opinion, Meng Yi is a A great man.
It's a pity that these people don't even know that the Meng family's business has always been maritime trade. Although it is not the most top-notch among maritime merchants, its strength is not bad.
