Although Hainan has entered summer at the end of March, due to the influence of the northern climate, the temperature is still very low towards the evening. Zhao Fuxiang stood naked at the gate, with the cold wind blowing. Zhao Fuxiang could not bear it even if he was covered with two fingers of fat.

He couldn't help it. When he heard the Ming army leaving outside, he quickly asked in a low voice: "Third Master, since the Ming army has left, can we enter the house? I really can't hold on any longer!"

Huang San waited for a while and heard that there was no movement outside. Then he took Zhao Fuxiang back to the house. Although it was not warm inside, it was much better than outside. Zhao Fuxiang finally no longer shivered in the cold wind.

.

Zhao Fuxiang originally wanted to go into the house to find some clothes to put on, but when he saw Huang Sanyi staring, he did not dare to move. Zhao Fuxiang had no choice but to ask with a sad face: "Third Master, what on earth do you want to do? What do you need?

Please send a message to the third master so that I can get ready. The weather is so cold now that I will freeze to death without any clothes!"

Huang San saw Zhao Fuxiang's embarrassment. Today he came to see Zhao Fuxiang with a special mission, so after hearing what Zhao Fuxiang said, he nodded to the pirate next to him. The pirate then went in and took out the clothes Zhao Fuxiang had taken off.

Zhao Fuxiang put it on.

The upper body of the clothes felt much better, and Zhao Fuxiang's fat face, which was frozen white, finally recovered. Zhao Fuxiang took a long breath and asked: "Third Master, can you say it now?"

Huang San was surprisingly polite now. He waved to the pirates to get a chair for Zhao Fuxiang and let Zhao Fuxiang sit down. Then he said: "Executive member Zhao, last time you killed hundreds of our brothers, my captain told me about this.

After all, swords have no eyes on the battlefield, so if you die, you will die, but shouldn’t you pay some money for burning and burial?”

When Zhao Fuxiang heard this, he cursed in his heart, you pirates came ashore and burned and killed dozens of people. Especially those craftsmen are priceless. Who can I ask for money from? But now they have a knife at their necks.

Zhao Fuxiang did not dare to argue with others, so he nodded and said with a smile: "Of course, money is a trivial matter, how about one hundred taels of compensation per person?"

One hundred per person is ten thousand taels of silver, which is not a small amount. After hearing this, Huang San's eyes lit up and he nodded: "Zhao Yuanwai is indeed loyal. In this case, this matter can be regarded as wiped out! But we still have more than thirty

Two brothers were arrested by Yuan Zhao, should we let them go?"

At that time, Zhang Rongqing captured thirty-six prisoners and more than twenty wounded when he suppressed the pirates. However, seven or eight of the wounded died from serious injuries, and two others were tortured to death by Sun Jing's immature penicillin. Now in the hands of Zhao Fuxiang*

There were a total of forty-five pirates alive. Zhao Fuxiang was not a philanthropist, so he would not spend food to support his uncle, so he sent all these unlucky pirates to the factory to burn boilers.

There are currently six boilers on the island. Except for the boilers on Xinbu Island that need to be kept secret and fired by workers themselves, the other five are all on Haidian Island. These forty-five unlucky people have become boiler workers working two shifts.

Their hard work is comparable to the sweaty employees of 007 factories in later generations.

Zhao Fuxiang didn't know how many of these boiler workers could survive now, but there were at least thirty of them, so he quickly nodded and said: "This is natural. I will send people to invite all the brothers here soon, and each of them will

Give Anjia ten taels of silver!"

Huang San was also very satisfied with Zhao Fuxiang's arrangement. He nodded and said, "Member Zhao should know that the last time we went ashore, we were working for Zhang Chengde. Originally, Zhang

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

Chengde promised to give us five thousand taels of silver when the matter is completed. Now Zhang Chengde has been killed by Yuanwai Zhao, and we haven't received the money yet. What do you think Yuanwai Zhao should do?"

Zhao Fuxiang cursed in his heart: Why should your mother Zhang Chengde ask me for the money that your mother owes you? But now there is no way, Zhao Fuxiang just gritted his teeth and said with a smile: "This should really be counted on the villain. In addition to the money that was burned and buried to compensate the brothers just now,

The villain is offering ten thousand taels of silver to the captain. Are you satisfied with this, Third Master?"

Naturally satisfied with getting twice the amount of money, Huang San was even more polite to Zhao Fuxiang. He even ordered his subordinates to give Zhao Fuxiang a cup of hot tea to warm himself up. Zhao Fuxiang's face became much brighter after seeing the hot tea. Huang San continued:

: "One last thing, my ship owner said, I heard that Zhao Yuanwai has the secret recipe for producing frosting sugar. My ship owner wants to jointly produce it with Zhao Yuanwai. My ship owner will provide raw materials and be responsible for sales. Then he will share 70% of the profit. Zhao Yuanwai, you

What do you think?"

Huang San's last step was his real purpose. After the pirate rebellion, their ship owner, the leader Huang Xin, took more than a hundred people left and ran back to the stronghold of Beibu Gulf. Thinking that he would lose his troops, he would be defeated.

I feel really unwilling to get any benefits.

Huang Xin returned to his lair and thought about it carefully, and found that there was something fishy about this matter. Why didn't the contact person sent by the Zhang family let them kill those craftsmen? And why were there so many tyrannical servants on the island? The more Huang Xin thought about it, the more he thought about it.

Suspicious, is this a plan set by Zhang Chengde? Are you going to take this opportunity to catch them all? Although Huang Xin is a pirate who does not study, he is not a fool, otherwise he will not be able to develop independently after breaking away from Liu Xianglao.

Become a force.

Huang Xin's suspicion was not unreasonable. The Ming Dynasty did not put much trust in these bandits and pirates. Basically, there were all kinds of tricks, including all kinds of evil tricks to deceive and kill people. That's why Huang Xin thought it was a trap set by Zhang Chengde and prepared

Deal with yourself.

In order to take revenge and find out the real situation, Huang Xin sent his most capable confidant, Huang Sanhuang Manzi, who was also his nephew, to go to Haikou to find Zhang Chengde to ask for hard-earned money.

The uncles and nephews of Huang Xin and Huang Manzi are also heroic figures with names in history. After the Qing army occupied Guangdong and Guangxi, they were not attracted by the Qing governor Tong Yangjia. Instead, they submitted to the Yongli court and raised the banner of resisting the Qing. However,

Their strength was too weak. After ten years of persistence, in the ninth year of Yongli in the Ming Dynasty and the twelfth year of Shunzhi in the Qing Dynasty, the uncle and nephew were betrayed by traitors and were captured and taken to Guangzhou for questioning.

Huang Manzi brought twelve elite men to Haikou Port ten days ago. Here he found a large number of ships transporting bags of sugar. Huang Manzi, who has been robbing merchant ships in Beibu Gulf all year round, knew that this was a good thing.

A pack of sugar weighs eighty kilograms, and when sold, it can bring a huge profit of dozens of taels. However, most of the sugar transporters are British merchant ships. These red-haired merchant ships are equipped with cannons. At the same time, the ships are very huge, and there are only some small boats with 200 tons of sugar.

Huang Xin really didn't dare to touch these merchant ships. He could only make a small fortune by picking up missing merchant ships when he encountered them.

Huang Manzi knew that these red-haired merchant ships transporting white sugar all came from Guangzhou or Leizhou Prefecture, so why did they go to Qiongzhou to ship white sugar today? Could it be that the sugar shacks in Leizhou Prefecture went to Haikou to open a semicolon?

After inquiring, Huang Manzi learned the details. These sugars were shipped from a Nanyang Company store in Haikou, but this Nanyang Company did not

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

It was not established by some red-haired man, but was the property of Zhao Fuxiang, a big businessman in Haikou.

After hearing this news, Huang Manzi became interested. After paying some money, he got accurate information. It turned out that Zhao Fuxiang was a businessman from Luzon, Nanyang. I heard that this guy had a secret method of refining white sugar passed down from his family. By purchasing it from Lianzhou Prefecture,

After a large amount of cheap brown sugar is extracted, high-value white sugar is extracted, thereby earning a huge middle price difference.

After asking about Zhao Fuxiang's details, Huang Manzi's eyes turned red. Isn't this a machine for printing money? With this secret method, why worry about running out of money? At the same time, Huang Manzi also understood why Zhang Chengde wanted those craftsmen.

, this guy must also be interested in Zhao Fuxiang's industry and want to build a sugar factory.

Huang Manzi is not, as his name suggests, a man who only knows how to act recklessly. Otherwise, he would not have become Huang Xin's number one confidant. You must know that among loosely organized pirates, blood relations alone cannot secure the second place.

.

The method of refining white sugar is so tempting that even the pirate Huang Manzi would be jealous of it. Their home base is in Beibu Gulf, which is less than 200 miles away from Lianzhou Prefecture. If they get the method of refining white sugar,

, then why are pirates robbing homes and houses? Isn’t it much better to just go ashore and open a sugar house than lick blood from the edge of a knife?

After Huang Manzi made up his mind, he immediately went to Haidian Island with his men pretending to be purchasers. In the Ming Dynasty, there were not police cars patrolling the streets and alleys like in later generations. Except for some big cities where there were patrols by government officials, basically everywhere else

They are all sieves, you can go through them however you want.

Huang Manzi wandered around the island. Apart from avoiding those training guys, there was basically no danger. During this period, Huang Manzi not only saw those strange factories and black smoke-emitting iron guys, but also saw those who had been captured.

The hard-working boilermaker's accomplice.

Huang Manzi learned from these accomplices that the factories on the island were not sugar-producing places at all, and the pirates did not know where exactly they were. Huang Manzi also believed what these accomplices said. After all, with Zhang Chengde’s energy, if sugar

If Liao Zhen is located on the island, it will definitely be swallowed up by Zhang Chengde.

Huang Manzi thought over and over again and decided to meet Zhang Chengde. After all, this guy still owed him five thousand taels of silver. However, when Huang Manzi entered the city, he got the news that Zhang Chengde and his son had been killed.

Huang Manzi was in trouble after learning about it. Not only would the money not come back after Zhang Chengde's death, but the matter of Tangliu was also ruined. Just when Huang Manzi wanted to leave Haikou, he saw Zhao Fuxiang in front of Qianhusuo.

Of course, Huang Manzi did not know Zhao Fuxiang, but there were not many fat men in the Ming Dynasty, so Huang Manzi was overjoyed when he learned from the surrounding people that this dead fat man was Zhao Fuxiang. Now that he saw Zhao Fuxiang, Huang Manzi was ready to change his strategy and get Zhang Chengde from Zhang Chengde

The benefits you can't get can be obtained from this damn fat man.

After making up his mind, Huang Manzi and his men followed Zhao Fuxiang's motorcade from a distance. After seeing Zhao Fuxiang entering the farm in Damei Village, Huang Manzi looked at the place and saw that it was outside the city and that Damei Village was a small village.

There are few buildings in villages and farms, which means there must be very few people inside. This is really a good place to kill people and buy goods.

After observation, Huang Manzi waited for Zhao Fuxiang to leave the farm with his guards during the day, and then led his men over the wall into the farm and controlled several maids and servants. He himself hid in the farm waiting for Zhao Fuxiang to return.
