0598 Punishment
Several people had just landed, and someone had already greeted them on the dock. It was supposed to be the message conveyed by the whistle ship. The greeting people took them directly outside the military camp and told them that the Dragon King was waiting inside.
When everyone approached the military camp gate, there were more than ten steps, the two soldiers guarding the gate raised their spears and shouted sternly: "Who is coming? Stop!"
Everyone stopped following the order. The man who picked up the person said, "It was the guest invited by the Grand Marshal."
The soldier then retracted his spear and said, "Wait!"
After saying that, he turned around and ran into the camp. After a while, the soldiers reappeared. After checking the man's waist card, he checked that everyone did not bring weapons on their bodies before letting them into the camp. The man said to everyone, "After entering the camp, you can only follow me, and you are not allowed to look around."
These people have never suffered such humiliation on weekdays! But today, people are under the low eaves and have to bow their heads! The group can only hold their breath in their stomachs and enter the camp.
Although the few people did not look around after entering, they could see clearly the situation in the camp. The barracks were very neat and clean. The places they saw were all corners and square. Even the size of the barracks was exactly the same. Moreover, the ground inside the camp was flat and there were no larger stones. It looked extremely pleasing to the eye.
The time they entered the military camp was obviously the time for the soldiers to rest. Many soldiers were doing various strange postures on the equipment. Some soldiers were fighting for the show. Judging from their skills and figures, a few people understood that this was the morale and physical strength that only provided sufficient troops. Compared with those weak soldiers in the Ming Dynasty, they were in heaven and earth!
Halfway through the journey, there was a team of soldiers who had changed their guards crossed them. The team of soldiers was clamped in their armpits, with the tips of the guns slanted upwards, and the angle seemed to be exactly the same! Everyone's steps were extremely neat! More than thirty people's steps were actually on one point, and the people's hearts were trembling.
Several people quickly exchanged their gazes, and were a little surprised. There were no pirates here, they were obviously elite soldiers! Although these people had never seen elite soldiers from the nine borders of the imperial court, they thought they were just like this.
They crossed a few rows
The barracks walked towards the back. The doors of all the barracks were wide open. In one of the barracks, they actually saw a group of soldiers with a look of earth and learning to write with a teacher!
Now the few people were no longer surprised, but were shocked! Since ancient times, no one has taught soldiers to learn to write? Isn’t this soldiers just know how to fight? An answer emerged from these people’s hearts: the soldiers here will all become officers in the future, otherwise they would not have given up their books to train them.
With all their hearts in mind, everyone followed the man directly into a hall. The expected intimidation and disarming force did not appear, but easily saw the Red Eye Dragon King sitting in the main seat. The red goggles seemed particularly charming to them.
After seeing Liu Pei, several people bowed to Liu Pei and said, "I have seen the Dragon King."
Before Liu Pei got up, he waved his hand and said, "You are all acquaintances, let's sit down."
However, several people did not sit down immediately. The old man in the lead said: "Dragon King, I will not investigate for a while, so I was encouraged to do something wrong. Now I regret it! So I discussed it and donated it to the Dragon King for military management and shipbuilding."
Liu Pei felt aroused when he heard this. Originally, Liu Pei called these people just to beat them up, but he didn't think about killing them or breaking a silver. Because Liu Pei knew that killing could not solve the problem, it would make the problem worse. If he made the people involved in the sea trade feel fear, these people would fight back with all their might. The key is that it affected the sea trade, and his own finances would not delay it. But now a few people sent a silver, which was a surprise.
Thinking of this, Liu Pei stood up and said, "It turns out that you have worked hard, so let's sit down and talk."
Seeing that Liu Pei was polite, several people felt relieved and found their own seats to sit down. After everyone sat down, Liu Pei asked someone to bring tea and said, "It's surprising that you can deliver the money. I wonder how much money you are going to deliver?"
When a few people heard Liu Pei's tone, they knew that their life had been saved this time. And the method of donating silver also touched Liu Pei. Then they sat upright in relief. The old man who had just spoken continued, "Dragon King, I
The seven families raised a total of 50,000 taels of silver to give to the Dragon King. I hope the Dragon King will not dislike it!"
Liu Peixin said, "How could I dislike it? Now I am almost mad and poor, okay?" The books are still negative, and the old accountant is so worried all day long that he has bubbled his mouth. He said immediately: "Then thank you all!"
When several people saw Liu Pei saying that he had accepted the money, they despised Liu Pei for being greedy for money in their hearts. It was just that! But they all agreed to the speeches, saying that they were all their own wishes, and the Dragon King could just accept them. For a moment, the atmosphere in the room eased a lot.
A small episode passed and finally got the point. Liu Pei was too lazy to go around with them. Liu Pei also knew that if he went around in circles, he might not be the opponent of these people. These people quoted the classics and a small thing could tell you until dawn.
So Liu Pei simply said: "You are willing to come to Penghu. I think you already know the affairs of the Liu and Li families, right? You guys guessed it well, I sent someone to do it!"
Everyone was very embarrassed when they heard this. However, these people were old fry, and a little embarrassed would have their lives. So they all agreed with humming.
Liu Pei said: "I am very fair. The person surnamed Li directly interfered in my affairs. The person surnamed Liu came up with a bad idea. So these two people died without any worries! But you don't have to worry. If I kill them and vent my anger, I will not seek your bad luck again."
Everyone heard the look of awkward expression, but they felt completely relieved. At this time, Liu Pei continued: "To be honest, I control the sea and hope that the waves of the sea will be stable. I just want everyone to do business in a fair manner and make some money for themselves. So I didn't expect you to be grateful to me. But what I want to do must be done! You are exempt from death, but it is hard to spare your life! From today on, your own ships will go to sea, and each ship will draw 5,000 taels of silver. Each ship related to you will draw 4,000 taels of silver. After a year, you will return to normal."
