【004】The 7th son of Hongmen

Long Hao collected his attention, turned his head and asked, "Uncle Hong, is this your daughter?"

Hong Zaimo chuckled, and pampered Hong Xiangling's little head: "It's my little girl, she's been by my side since childhood, she's used to wild things, she doesn't have the upbringing of an ordinary lady! Brother Long, don't be offended. , do you have to worry about it in the future?"

How much to worry about?What's the meaning?Long Hao was slightly surprised, but he kept his breath and didn't ask any questions.

Hong Xiangling was two years older than Long Hao, this time he was in a catastrophe, and he was stuck in the cargo hold with his father, because he was beautiful, so he had to cover his face with soot and black soil, and he was already exhausted.

After the riot hijacked the ship successfully, she washed off the filth on her face, which feasted Long Hao's eyes. [

Long Hao stopped looking at Hong Xiangling, but asked Hong Zaimo seriously: "Uncle Hong, do you want to borrow these people to help me sail the boat? Can they do it?"

After learning about Hong Zaimo's legendary life, Long Hao couldn't help but look forward to these 20 strong and strong men. It should not be possible for the naval soldiers brought out by the top students of the Royal Naval Academy to drive a small steamboat. problem?

A blush flashed on Hong Zaimo's scorched face, and he said proudly: "Okay! These disciples of mine are all Hongmen's brothers, let alone this small steamship, even if they are given a battleship, it will be enough. Manpower, it is not a problem to start it!"

These strong men are all navy seedlings secretly cultivated by Hong Zaimo!After witnessing the corruption of the Beiyang Navy in recent years, Hong Zaimo completely gave up on the Qing Dynasty Navy, and planned to take this opportunity to go home to visit his father to bring these "good seedlings" to the United States to serve China. Save a little blood for the naval cause of the nation!

Under the guidance of Hong Zaimo, these disciples all secretly joined the Hongmen, and usually trained and studied in the reserve team of the Beiyang Navy. They were loyal to Hong Zaimo and obeyed his orders.

Hong Zaimo said: "With their help, although this ship is small, it is definitely possible to sail to the United States!"

Long Hao's biggest headache at the moment is the lack of talents who know how to sail and sail. Hong Zaimo's move is sending charcoal in the snow, and pie in the sky!

However, Long Hao was not stunned by the big pie that fell from the sky, his eyes were burning, and his quiet face showed a calmness that did not match his age: "Uncle Hong, forgive Long Hao for speaking bluntly, why do you want Help me? What is the purpose? I believe that there is no such thing as a just favor in this world, if you don’t make it clear, I’m sorry, I can’t use these heroes!”

Long Hao's words were unceremonious and straight to the heart of the problem, and he almost pointed at Hong Zaimo's nose and said that he had "planted his confidants and had evil intentions"!

The disciples around all glared angrily, and Hong Xiangling opened her bright red mouth angrily, pointed at Long Hao and said angrily, "You don't know good and evil, my father kindly wants to help you, but you don't accept it? Hey, you Is there water in your head?"

Long Hao was unmoved, but kept staring at Hong Zaimo with a smile in his eyes.

Hong Zaimo coughed heavily, sat up from the blanket, pressed his hands lightly, signaled to his disciples to be calm, and said, "Brother Long, to be honest, I do have a little selfishness... ...Can I take a step to speak?"

Long Hao looked back at Uncle Long, Uncle Long understood, patted Long Hao's back lightly, and then tremblingly walked out of the cargo hold.

On Long Hao's back was the Winchester revolver, six pellets, fully loaded.

Hong Zaimo also waved his hand, and the more than 20 disciples, including Hong Xiangling, also walked out of the cargo hold. Suddenly, only Hong Zaimo and Long Hao were left in the huge cargo hold.

Long Hao sat two meters away from Hong Zaimo, put his hand on the handle of the gun under his clothes, and said, "Everyone is gone, what can Uncle Hong say?"

Hong Zaimo looked at Long Hao's guarded look, admiring and amused at the same time, "Brother Long, I fell in love with you right away, don't worry, I'm just a patient who is about to see God now, and I won't hurt you! Your hands You don’t have to hold a gun, hehe!”

"Okay then! Actually, I did it for my big butler to reassure him! You know, I'm only 12 years old!" Long Hao, who was exposed, was not at all embarrassed, but very naturally pistoled Pulled out from the back of the waist, the muzzle of the black hole seemed to be aimed at Hong Zaimo just in time.

"Hehehe, the good one is only 12 years old!" Hong Zaimo was pointed at by a gun, but he couldn't help laughing: "Brother Long, I really don't mean anything malicious! In the past half month, I have been I've been watching you, since you went to danger alone for a maid last night, I decided... to give my only daughter to you!" [

ha?Long Hao tilted his body, and the Winchester pistol in his hand almost went off!

This, this is too unexpected!Long Hao's head was a little dazed: What did the big yellow-faced man just say?Do you want to hand over your daughter... to me?

After reacting, Long Hao quickly said, "Uncle Hong, are you kidding me? Or am I suffering from malnutrition for the past few days and have auditory hallucinations?"

Hong Zaimo's face was a little dark, and the pistol almost went off just now, but he broke out in a cold sweat: I, Hong Zaimo, a hero in the last life, although I am seriously ill and close to death, if I die from a child's pistol going off , so why not be laughed to death by the brothers?

"Huh, you heard me right, I am entrusting Xiang Ling to you!"

"Impossible!" Long Hao stood up and kept shaking his head: "You and I are strangers, besides, don't you have a big family in the United States? If you want to entrust, you entrust your daughter to them!"

Hong Zaimo sighed, and said: "Brother Long, you don't know something. Because of my birth in Hongmen, I was squeezed out by several brothers and uncles. If my father was not dying, I would not be in a hurry. Hurry back! Handing Xiang Ling to them is like a sheep going into a tiger's mouth, how can I rest assured?"

Long Hao said: "You can rest assured if you leave it to me?"

He curled his lips in his heart: don't look at me, I'm only 12 years old, in another year, I'll be able to 'eat' that delicate baby girl of yours!You are really sending sheep to the tiger's mouth!

Hong Zaimo said sincerely: "Brother Long, although you and I have only known each other for an hour, but I see your actions, making a plan to rob the ship by yourself, can be called 'wisdom', and go out from anger alone to kill the guards, can be called "wisdom". For the sake of 'courage', I couldn't bear to let my personal servants go to danger together, and I would rather be scalded by steam, which can be called 'benevolence and justice'! Later, I used the method of killing chickens and monkeys to take down those Russians without bloodshed, which can be called 'scheming', and then released Lock the coolies in the cargo hold, and distribute food and clothing to them, which can be described as a "Bodhisattva heart"! If such a person is wise and courageous, benevolent and righteous, if he is not worthy of my daughter, Hong Zaimo, then I will never find another person in this world. There are no suitable candidates! Hey, I, Hong Zaimo, have been wandering abroad for 18 years, educated people, and I still have this little eye for knowing people!"

Hearing this, Long Hao's heart was already moved. If he didn't accept a girl who was clearly going to be a flowery beauty in the future, wouldn't he be a fool?

This is the legendary loli training, tsk tsk!

Long Hao nodded and said: "Uncle Hong said so, then I would be more respectful than obedient! Xiang Ling will follow me, and I will take good care of her and will not treat her badly!"

When Hong Zaimo saw Long Hao agreeing, he seemed to be less worried and relaxed, and suddenly had a good cough, vomiting blood on the floor.

Hong coughed at the end and said, "Brother Long, cough cough... you are still called Uncle Hong so... cough cough... see you?"

Long Hao was so blessed that he rolled over and went down: "Little son-in-law Long Hao, pay homage to Mr. Yue Zhang!" He was very proud: Kowtow, earning a beautiful lady, it is really a bargain!

Long Hao knew very well in his heart that Hong Zaimo said so much just now, but in fact he really made up his mind to entrust Hong Xiangling to himself, probably because he put Yuan'er down on the iron pipe!Think about it, how could a person who treats his own maids so well treat his wives and concubines so badly?

"Hehe, cough cough..." Hong Zaimo was very happy, and stretched out his hand to help Long Hao up with difficulty: "You don't need to be polite...Since you and I have become son-in-law, we are a family! Those disciples under my hands , they are all good at manipulating ships, and they all know English, and they have a solid foundation, which can help you!"

Long Hao was sincerely grateful and said, "Thank you, Father-in-law!"

"Family, don't be so polite!"

Hong Zaimo was in a good mood, and immediately recruited those disciples back into the cargo hold, announcing the matter of accepting Long Hao as his son-in-law.

At this moment, those strong men who regarded Hong Zaimo as their biological father immediately accepted Long Hao, the fresh young master. [
