Red Chamber: Bring Xue Baochai home at the beginning

Chapter 189 Quanzhou Wei Brothers Meet, Black Dragon House Sisters Insomnia

As soon as Feng Yibo arrived in Quanzhou, he sent someone to report to the guard.

Just as the things on the boat were being unloaded here, Liu Zhao came galloping alone.

Seeing Feng Yibo from a distance, he galloped over and shouted excitedly at the same time:

"Brother Yibo!"

Feng Yibo was turning his head, looking for his reputation.

He had already dismounted from the horse, and strode forward at the same time, holding Feng Yibo's arm excitedly.

After looking up and down, he said with a look of relief:
"Long time no see, my brother has grown stronger!"

Although the relationship between the two has always been good, it is obviously not such a relationship.

Feng Yibo was displeased, but he wouldn't be overjoyed either.

He didn't know that Liu Zhao just wanted to take this opportunity to get closer.

Or, he really regarded himself as an elder brother.

Of course, compared to last year, Feng Yibo is indeed much stronger.

After all, he is still growing up.

As long as the nutrition can keep up, even the stature will grow a little.

In the Ministry of Rites on weekdays, it is also very leisurely.

The face that was originally thin due to being too curly is now full of collagen.

Fortunately, his facial features are sharp and angular, with a straight nose, square mouth, sword eyebrows and star eyes.

It doesn't feel soft.

Looking at it from a distance, it is also slender.

Unlike ordinary scholars who are weak in literature.

Some just keep up with nutrition, and they are very self-disciplined and strong.

Recently, however, there has been a slight slack.

Although the movement never stops.

But with a three-bedroom concubine, the form of morning exercises has inevitably undergone some changes.

After all, all three of them practiced yoga with Xiangling.

Although Feng Yibo didn't practice, the effect is not bad.

"Brother Mingliang, stay safe and sound!"

"I haven't seen you for a while. Not only have you not let go of your skills, but you have seen them grow?"

Feng Yibo's face was filled with the joy of seeing his old friend.

But inside and outside the words, there was a hint of dissatisfaction.

Although Liu Zhao is a bit straightforward, he is not a fool.

But just as he wanted to make amends, Feng Yibo didn't give him a chance, so he tapped again:
"We brothers reunited after a long absence, we must get drunk to live up to this trip!"

Although we hadn't seen each other for a long time, he started beating Liu Zhao as soon as he got off the boat.

Liu Zhao had already awakened at this time, he just treated Feng Yibo like an elder.

What is his identity, others don't know, he still doesn't know?

Even if there is some brotherhood, it cannot be said here.

Let his subordinates watch, thinking that he can't tell the difference between big and small kings!
"Oh? My dear brother wants to drink, I have to find someone to drink with me, but my brother has already given up."

Although Liu Zhao was a little embarrassed, he still bit the bullet and explained:
"Speaking of which, I swore an oath in front of my virtuous brother, why did my virtuous brother forget?"

Regardless of whether these words are true or not, what Feng Yibo wants is his attitude.

Of course, this also shows that he still remembers what he said to himself.

"Oh? You said that time!"

Feng Yibo frowned first, then acted suddenly, and said:

"At that time, when I told my brother to quit drinking, I just said it casually."

Having said that, he patted Liu Zhao on the shoulder with anger and strangeness, and said:

"It's just a joke, brother, why take it seriously?"

As the saying goes:
It is better to release one person's resentment than to invite thousands of people to cheer;
It is better to avoid the ugliness of one thing than wishing for the glory of thousands of things.

Originally, Feng Yibo shouldn't have mentioned this matter again, even when Liu Zhao was drinking, he wouldn't say much.

But today I found out that Liu Zhao was a little drifting.

Feng Yibo had to beat him hard.

Not really, but at least remind him of what kind of person he is!

Back then, Feng Yibo took the opportunity to force Liu Zhao to swear in order to suppress Liu Zhao.

Now, in fact, only binding interests is enough to make him bow his head.

But obviously, the relationship between the two has misunderstood each other.

Then I naturally have to give him a tight grip.

Suppress when it's time to press down, and relax when it's time to relax.

One piece and one relaxation, that is...

The Way of PUAs.

"My virtuous brother's words are wrong. If my virtuous brother hadn't woken me up and treated me like a brother, how could I be where I am today?"

Liu Zhao had come to his senses at this time, knowing that he had just revealed some true feelings.

He felt that he understood why Feng Yibo did this.

Because if he loses his position in front of his subordinates, he must get it back immediately.

And he admitted that what he said was from the bottom of his heart.

"If I don't have my virtuous brother to take care of me, how can I feel at ease and command?"

If it weren't for Feng Yibo, he would be just a thousand households in the Beijing camp now.

It can't compare to the Quanzhou Wei who is now the sole leader of the guard and is still very rich.

Most importantly, Feng Yibo never lost money to him.

Not only did he help him suppress the Japanese, but he was promoted and became a commander.

And take him to make money together!
Of course, this need not be said in person.

Seeing that he lowered his posture, Feng Yibo no longer suppressed him, and said with a smile:
"What's the matter, brother? We brothers have known each other for so long, how can we talk about such nonsense?"

Seeing that he no longer pursued the matter, Liu Zhao felt relieved, and hurriedly said:
"This is not a place to talk, let's go to my mansion, we have already prepared a reception banquet for my virtuous brother!"

"Brother has a heart!"

The two exchanged a few pleasantries here, and then went to Liu Zhao's mansion.

Although Liu Zhao is the commander of the Quanzhou Guard, he obviously does not live in the Guard on weekdays.

When Feng Yibo got out of the car, he felt a glorious scene.

The faction of the Liu residence is actually only slightly worse than that of the Jia residence.

I thought it was a bit over the limit, Feng Yibo frowned suddenly,
But it stretches immediately.

The commander is a military officer of the third rank, although he is much worse than the civil servants of the same level.

But the regulations are the same.

After all, although the authority is very different, the commander of the Beijing camp is also a third-rank official.

The family status of Jia's family is high because the Duke of the State is a super rank title.

Liu Zhao didn't dare to call outsiders, so he only called a few beautiful concubines to accompany him to drink.

Of course, Feng Yibo would not accept it, and said directly:
"Brother, I won't drink anymore, let's talk about business."

Liu Zhao hurriedly waved his hand to let the shivering concubines go down.

"My dear brother, tell me."

Here Feng Yibo explained a few words about the problems that Liuqiu might encounter in the future.

And some things that require Liu Zhao's cooperation.

And by the way, about the Fransigans.

That night, Feng Yibo refused to be served by the beautiful maidservant of the Liu residence, and forced himself to sleep.

He's not a moral freak.

But such a thing is really unnecessary.

It's not like he couldn't find the woman himself.

He doesn't want what others give, and he can't escape what he wants.

What's more, he has to recharge his batteries.

I have to get up early tomorrow.

On the other side, in the Black Dragon Mansion, both Ke Qing and Xi Feng were sitting in the main hall.

The two are separated by a table, one on each side.

They all seemed to be in a stable state, but in fact they were each in a state of anxiety.

They already got the news yesterday that Feng Yibo had arrived in Quanzhou.

According to the itinerary, it is almost time to arrive at the Black Dragon Mansion today.

This news made them toss and turn last night.

Especially Wang Xifeng.

She didn't know what Feng Yibo would do to her, but she could make a good guess.

No one would let such a right be in the hands of outsiders.

What should I do?
Either she lets go and continues to be an outsider.

Either he comes in and becomes an insider himself.

Can Wang Xifeng let go?
Hard to say...export.

But definitely not!
Who is Wang Xifeng?
None of the men in Jia's mansion can compare to her!

She was so strong that even her husband was overwhelmed by her.

Now, there is a stage to show their talents, the right to life and death, and the honor of being enshrined...

In the Black Dragon Temple, except for the Black Dragon King and Black Dragon Po.

There is already a statue of the black phoenix, one on the left and one on the right with the black dragon woman, accompanying the black dragon king on both sides.

In fact, there are also the Black Dog King and the Strong General, but they are standing opposite each other on both sides.

Not as conspicuous as the two women serving in the middle.

These things, especially rights.

It is something that Wang Xifeng never enjoyed in Jia's mansion.

With her spirit, how can she let go?
She also has some ideas about her future in her heart.

The only obstacle now may be the skin.

But, on this level.

Before it was stabbed, no one knew whether it was the window paper or the explosive barrel.

Even Wang Xifeng herself is constantly wandering between the two.

If the timing is wrong, it may explode with one poke.

perish together.

If the atmosphere is here, a barrel may be broken.

Sharing the same bed.

Before Feng Yibo's arrival, this was still Schrödinger's face.

Qin Keqing has done a good job of psychological preparation, but she is still extremely nervous.

She wasn't so nervous on her wedding night back then.

After all, that's when you're nervous.

Until the end, it was still tight.

But this time is different.

This time maybe, only one left...

She knew from the moment she took over Liu Qiu.

No, it was the moment when she set foot on Liuqiu and entered the Black Dragon Mansion.

Or earlier.

For example, the moment she asked Feng Yibo for help.

The result is already doomed.

But she has no regrets about it.

If not, she may have to hang herself.

The only worry is my father and brother.

But she believed that Feng Yibo would take care of her on her behalf.

But Qing didn't know that Qin Ye and Qin Zhong also came.

If I knew, I'm afraid I wouldn't be so nervous.

Likely to lie flat.

After all, her father and brothers all came to get together, and she has nothing to worry about in Dawei from now on.

Naturally, you can relax all over.

Feng Yibo set off from Quanzhou early in the morning.

Not long after, Beigang appeared before his eyes.

Looking at the past from afar, ships of all sizes come and go constantly.

A thriving scene.

"Our Beigang has a total of 25 piers and [-] berths, which can accommodate [-] large ships and [-] small ships."

Feng Yibo looked around, and Gouzi began to introduce him.

After talking about the pier, he pointed to the ships coming and going in Beigang, and said:

"We now have a total of more than 600 large and small ships."

"Among them, there are more than 300 large ships, and the main battleships are Fuchuan, with more than 160 ships."

"Secondly, there are more than [-] Zhuyin ships captured from Japanese pirates."

"More than 60 other large ships of various types."

"There are more than a dozen ships here, and they were contributed by George Stark's Fransya fleet."

"There are more than 200 small boats, mainly used for offshore fishing."

"More than 100 of them were captured from the Wa Kingdom during the attack on Xiaoliuqiu this time."

In Beigang, there are also merchant ships from various countries berthing here.

Gouzi raised his hand and pointed, and said, "Now that the merchants of Xifan want to go to the Wa Kingdom or the Great Wei Dynasty, it is not as convenient as coming here."

The Wa Kingdom began to close its doors, and only a few forces had contacts with Xifan.

In the beginning, many merchant ships chose to trade in Liuqiu, but now Fransya and other forces were wiped out by the Black Phoenix.

There are more foreign merchant ships, wisely choosing to trade.

Not only is it safe and fast, but the price is also very reasonable.

There is no need to bear the risk of smuggling, and there is no need to pay taxes according to the value of the goods.

The Black Dragon King, the manager of Beigang, only charges the berth fees according to the size of the ships.

As for what to trade, the Black Dragon King doesn't care.

It doesn't even matter whether you have cargo or not, just the size of the vessel and the length of stay.

Although the price is not low.

It is also very unreasonable to charge without cargo docking.

But it is better than paying taxes according to the value of the goods, or being surrounded by the Liuqiu fleet after smuggling.

These rules were naturally determined by Feng Yibo.

If he collected taxes like Wei, no one would want to trade here.

Apart from these, there was another important reason that drove them all to come here to trade.

It was Liuqiu who began to clear private ports everywhere.

Theoretically, it should be that the longer a private port exists and the more famous it is, the easier it is for Liu Qiu to target it.

But after Liu Qiu wiped out the private port on the outer island of Haojing'ao, he dispatched four or five times in succession.

But they didn't touch the most famous private ports.

Didn't even kill, didn't loot.

It's just that the private ports established by Japan, Xifan, etc. were burned to nothing.

All houses on the island were also burned down.

All the serious sea merchants already knew about this situation.

However, Liu Qiu did not touch the interests of the merchants of the Great Wei, and this matter did not spread to the court.

This is naturally Wang Xifeng's method.

Kill a few first to let people know how fierce she is.

Burn a few more to let her know the outcome she wants.

So, a kind of overseas businessman obediently came here to trade.

Spend some money and have peace of mind.

Gouzi introduced Beigang, and the boat arrived at the port.

Before Feng Yibo's boat set off from Quanzhou, Meng Zi personally brought a thousand elites to wait here.

As soon as he docked at this time, he immediately led a group of soldiers with bright armor forward.

Surrounding Feng Yibo in the middle, he was taken to the carriage in a very low-key manner.

So low-key that the spectators on the pier didn't see it clearly.

Of course, this is also because the soldiers within a hundred meters of this berth have long been emptied.

Those who want to watch the excitement are too far away, so naturally they can't see clearly.

The so-called low-key is also low-key in the eyes of these soldiers.

From the eyes of others on the pier, it was immediately clear that someone big was coming.

In particular, some people have seen the scene when the black dragon mother and the black phoenix arrived.

I knew there must be another big shot this time.

It's just that I didn't know that it was the Black Dragon King who took another room.

Or the Black Dragon King himself!
The news of Feng Yibo's mission was not even known to the Quanzhou government.

Naturally, it did not reach Liuqiu.

He was going to come over by himself first and make some arrangements.

Then announce that peace talks have started.

Escorted by Mengzi, he quickly passed through the canyon.

Looking at the vibrant new city built along the river from a distance.

Feng Yibo was filled with emotion.

This is his territory!

This port and city belong to him!

Passing by the Black Dragon King Temple, I went down to have a look.

Although the wood and clay sculptures are three points like him.

Then get on the car and turn north, and you will arrive at the intersection of Heilong Mansion.

Before reaching the door, I felt the grandeur from afar.

It can be seen from the intersection of the street that the long wall occupies the entire street.

It can also be seen faintly from outside the wall, with towering pavilions and lush trees inside.

When we got to the door, the two Pixiu gave people a sense of oppression.

"Welcome the Black Dragon King back home!!!"

Black Dragon Mansion, here we come!
