Chapter 71 Bystander She said something as aggrieved as a child bride, but she changed hands with all the food and supplies left by Asu's left army on the canal merchant, borrowed flowers and presented them to the Buddha.
Of course, Zhu Bayi couldn't refuse the generous gift that came to his door.
After thinking for a while, he immediately turned his head to Xu Hongsan, the captain of the personal soldiers, "Please order fifty brothers and follow Gang Leader Chang to receive the official ship later.
If anyone dares to stop them, they will be killed directly."
"Yes" Xu Hongsan agreed loudly, regardless of his fatigue, and stepped forward to take the order.
"After receiving the official ship, we immediately set anchor and returned to Xuzhou along the canal.
The required manpower was directly requisitioned from the ship gang.
When we arrived outside Xuzhou City, we used the official ship as labor money and gave it all to the ship gang."
Zhu Bayi nodded at him , and continued to give orders loudly.
"I can't do it, I can't do it."
Chang Sanshi jumped up immediately and waved his hands like windmills, "I don't dare to accept such a generous ship fee from Master Zhu for a hundred miles.
Besides, it is an official ship.
How can ordinary people like us dare?
I also ask the governor to take back his life, take his life back."
"That would be troublesome."
Zhu Bayi thought for a while and said awkwardly.
"What our Red Scarf Army pays attention to is that Qiu does not commit any crimes, and your manpower cannot be used in vain.
I will give you a boat to offset the debt and you will not agree.
If you ask for money."
"You don't need money, how can you dare to accept money from the governor?"
Talking to smart people saves effort.
Chang Sanshi quickly understood what Zhu Bayi meant, and while being polite, he climbed up the pole, "It's just As the boat gang walks on the canal, it is inevitable that they will pass outside Xuzhou City again soon.
It's summer, and many rare items from the south have to be transported to the north.
One more day of delay on the way is a loss.
If the Governor can give a few words of kindness to General Manager Li, the customs clearance procedures for the Red Scarf Army will be simpler.
There are more than 20,000 people in the boat gang, and they will never forget the great kindness of the governor."
"This is something."
It's rare to find a person with an unusually sharp mind in this era.
While Zhu Bayi was excited, he thought of helping him.
After thinking for a moment, he responded with a smile, "Well, it's not convenient for me to answer you now.
You go back and find a few outstanding helpers and take them to Xuzhou to talk.
Our two families will gong and drum in front of each other, and we will work together.
Come up with a charter.
It won't delay your boat gang's business, and it won't cause too much damage to our Xuzhou Army.
Brother Chang, what do you think?"
"Chang Mou, Chang Mou is very grateful."
Chang Sanshi was stunned again and bowed to the ground again.
As a low-level industry, although the boat gang is large in scale, wherever you go, you have to look at other people's faces.
Even if they offered a lot of bribes, the lewd officials in the Mongolian Yuan court just casually threw out a rule and asked the boat gang to follow it.
There has never been any provocation or force willing to sit down and discuss specific conditions with them.
Even if it's just pretending.
Since Sesame Li rebelled, business on the canal has become even worse.
Although the Red Scarf Army has never tried to cut off shipping, those wealthy businessmen who do big business, who can guarantee that the ant thieves will not see the money?
Therefore, as long as the original price of the goods is slightly more expensive, many people would rather take the risk and hand it over to the Fang Guozhen brothers.
Going north by sea, I don't dare to let the boat gangs use the canal again.

As for some cheap daily necessities, such as fresh food, fruits and vegetables, local products from the north and south, etc., when passing through the checkpoints under Xuzhou City, they were delayed a lot due to complicated procedures, and their quality deteriorated on the way.
As time goes by, the boat gang's business becomes increasingly deserted.
Now that Governor Zhu, the most popular person in front of Sesame Li, actually agreed to discuss a customs clearance agreement with the boat gang that was acceptable to both parties, how could Chang Sanshi not be overjoyed?
Thinking that one more day of delay would cost thousands of hangings, he even stayed for an extra half-quarter of an hour.
Can't go down anymore.
Chao Zhubayi said a few more heart-warming words, immediately stood up and left, led Xu Hongsan and the fifty elite Red Scarf Army soldiers he had just selected, and rode the captured horses back to the canal dock like lightning.
On the dock, Jiang Shiyi, the leader of the boat gang, was waiting anxiously.
When he saw Chang Sanshi coming back with fifty armored men on fast horses, he immediately ordered people to light several fires and then made a panicked appearance.
He looked like he was leading the gang to run for their lives.
Secretly, he sent another deputy gang leader, Long Er, to lead Xu Hongsan and others to the unowned official ship, where they unloaded anchor and set sail as quickly as possible.
After Xu Hongsan and others and the boys from the boat gang who were responsible for swaying the oars and diverting water had gone far away, he secretly called Chang Sanshi aside and scolded him in a low voice: "Third brother, you are usually a stable person, why do you do it in such a big way?"
Bring the red scarf thief to the dock in case the government finds out."
"The government can't cope with the censure of the court right now.
How can it spare the time to pay attention to our eldest brother and second brother?
You two don't know that Governor Zhu captured more than 300 people alive today just because of the Asu cavalry."
"He" Chang Sanshi immediately opened his mouth and responded enthusiastically.
Immediately, without waiting for the other party to ask questions, he took the initiative to truthfully describe to Master Jiang and Master Long Er what he saw and heard in the Red Scarf Army camp.
"So, Governor Zhu is a rare hero."
Listening to his words full of admiration for Zhu Bayi, Jiang Shiyi, the leader of the boat gang, smiled and knocked on the table to interrupt.
"Yes, Third Brother, I have never seen you admire anyone before."
Gang Leader Long Er was also surprised and supported him with a smile.
"Eldest brother, second brother, I'm afraid the word hero is not enough to describe him."
Chang Sanshi corrected him without thinking.
"How do you say this?"
Jiang Twelve raised his head in surprise and asked in a low voice, having never seen his sworn brothers respect a person so much.
"Brother, second brother, you two didn't see it at that time."
Chang Sanshi clasped his fists again and added to the two sworn brothers, "When I went there, the Red Scarf Army was escorting prisoners to clean up the battlefield.
More than three hundred Ah Speedy people, they were so majestic when they hurried south along the canal.
Now they are as obedient as three hundred sheep in Zhu Dudu's place.
They don't even need to whip, they just go wherever the whip is pointed. " "That's right, if you don't obey, you will be killed early."
The deputy gang leader Long Er shook the feather fan in his hand, seven of them were dissatisfied and eight were angry.
"Then Zhu Bayi used several times the number of troops.
Could it be that he really used only four to five thousand to capture the Asu Army, as rumored by the outside world?"
Before he joined the boat gang, he was a white-clothed scholar who failed repeatedly.
The person he admired most was Zhuge Wuhou.
Therefore, no matter how cold the weather is, you should always carry a goose feather fan.
He often shakes a few times like Zhuge Kongming in the opera to show his wisdom.
However, today, the cool breeze blown by the goose-feather fan was surprisingly hot.
Just listen to the words of Chang Sanshi, the third leader, floating in the wind, and every word seems to have been roasted by fire, "How many times the second brother is, less than half of Asujun, okay?
This is what I saw with my own eyes, And I also heard from Wu Liangmou, the eldest young master of Wujiazhuang.
I heard about it once.
The purpose of Zhu Ba11's visit to the north bank of the Yellow River was just to collect money and food from a few unscrupulous Wubao.
So how could he bring too many people, just over 1,400, and a small part of them were Auxiliary soldiers who cannot go to the battlefield at all.”
"Really" Not only Long Er, but also the usually calm boss Jiang Shiyi was stunned and blurted out the questioning words.
"I secretly counted them when I went to visit Governor Zhu."

Chang Sanshi was irritated by the question, waving his arms and shouting, "We are all one family, what did I lie to you two about?
When I arrived at the battlefield, they had just gathered the team. .
Although it is not clear which one is the fighting force and which one is the auxiliary force, if the number of brothers killed in the battle is more than twice that of those who survived, they would have collapsed a long time ago.
How could it be possible to defeat the Aso left army and flee?"
"That's true."
Jiang Shiyi and Long Er looked at each other and nodded lightly.
"It seems that this Zhu Bayi is really as brave as the legend.
You just said that he is going to sell the Asu people to the local government with a clearly stated price."
"It's not so much a sale as a deliberate humiliation."
Seeing that the conversation finally returned to the topic, Chang Sanshi took a deep breath and added loudly, "Eight hundred coins, he sold the captives to each person for the price of one donkey.
He bought several nearby villages and handed them over to the Feng County government."
"Oh, no wonder you admire him so much, Third Brother.
It turned out that he wanted to follow Fang Guzi's old path."
The deputy gang leader Long Er sneered as if he had just woken up from a dream.
Fang Guzi is the nickname of Fang Guozhen, Dinghai Lieutenant of Meng Yuan Dynasty.
This man had rebelled four years ago and led a group of brothers to dominate the Zhoushan area, specifically attacking the cargo ships that came and went.
The Semu merchant couldn't bear the disturbance, so he bribed the Meng Yuan court and sent a naval army to conquer him.
As a result, the navy army was severely defeated by him, and even the leader of the army, Duo Erjiban, was captured alive by this man.
Fang Guozhen caught Duo'er behind the scenes, but he didn't show his head to the public.
Instead, he entertained him with good wine and food, and then gave him money and asked the other party to send a message to the court on his behalf and be willing to accept the recruitment.
The soldiers and horses of the Meng Yuan court were not good at water warfare, so they had to recruit him and appointed him as a Dinghai captain, hoping to trick him into landing and then take advantage of him.
Fang Guozhen received the recruitment document from the Mongolian and Yuan court, but refused to be fooled.
First, he put on his official uniform and continued to extort money from passing merchant ships under the banner of the Mongolian and Yuan Dynasty.
When they had enough money and food, they rebelled again and captured Wenzhou City again.
In the next three years, Fang Guzi had many encounters with the court.
Every time he won a battle, he asked for promotion and recruitment.
After each recruitment, they rebelled and entered the sea soon.
So back and forth, it has now become the largest force on the southeast coast.
The imperial court, the green forest heroes who made a living on the water, and the Semu fleet that came all the way to Dayuan to do business all had to look at his face.
Recently, there is news that the Mongolian and Yuan court has once again offered the position of water transportation to ten thousand households, and is waiting for the reply of the hero Fang Guzi.
If the hero Fang Guzi feels that Wanhu's position is also low, the two parties can even discuss it again.
I just hope that he can stop, so that the wealthy people in the metropolis and their lustful allies can continue to earn huge dividends from sea trade safely.
For being able to force the Meng Yuan court to this point, Fang Guzi was able to compete with the heroes of the world.
At present, the Xuzhou Army's station is stuck on the canal, and it is not surprising that Fang Guzi wants to learn from the past.
Unexpectedly, Gang Leader Long Er just laughed twice and was choked back by Chang Sanshi with contemptuous words, "Who the hell is Fang Guzi?
Compared with this Governor Zhu, he is just a night owl and a roc.
He has taken a fancy to Those two dead mice, I wouldn’t even pinch them with my eyelids.”
"Lao San, what do you mean by this?"
Long Er's face became hot at the words, and he pointed at Chang Sanshi with the top of his fan and asked loudly.
"If he just wanted to please the court, why would he set such a humiliating price?
Now that he has no shortage of money, what is the difference between eight hundred coins and giving it away for free?
The reason why he set such a price is because he asked me Come on, you can buy a donkey for 800 coins on the market.
Brother, second brother, think about it, the three of us have seen a lot of heroes who dare to kill officials and rebel in the past two years.
Who would have thought of being so cruel.
Slap that dog courting hard in the face and divide the world The fourth class was a national policy set by Kublai Khan when he went to Jiangnan.

Everyone has been used to it for more than seventy years, including the scholars in the world.
Who has ever dared to question whether it is reasonable or not?
But Zhu Bayi said this.
Xuzhou red scarf will no longer be They are grass bandits who kill the rich and help the poor.
No matter whether they are poor, rich, illiterate, or educated, as long as they remember the Mongolian law of the court, who will not give him a thumbs up to stand for him?
The red scarf in Xuzhou is called "cai" "Then, he caused the imperial court to attack with overwhelming force, and he also put the Xuzhou red scarf on the stove."
Long Er glared at Chang Sanshi fiercely and asked with curled lips.
"Yes, what Governor Zhu did sounds really enjoyable.
However," Jiang Shiyi, the leader of the Boat Gang, while admiring it, also felt that Zhu Bayi's move was a little unruly.
He paused and continued: "But he has also completely put himself in the most obvious position.
After the court hears this, I am afraid that they will smash the canal and have to get rid of them first."
"Hey, Third Brother, let us tell you how you want to be."
Long Er also sighed along with him, and there were gusts of cold wind under the goose-feather fan.
My third brother is good at everything, but he is too impulsive.
What Zhu Ba11 did sounds indeed enjoyable, but is it the work of a wise man?
The wise man at this time should shrink his head and watch the soldiers and horses of the court attack others.
Then hide aside and slowly develop and grow, waiting for future opportunities.
"The Xuzhou army is stuck on the canal.
Even if they don't raise the banner of expelling Meng Yuan, the court can let them go."
Chang Sanshi immediately became very excited.
He looked into the eyes of the two sworn brothers and shouted loudly.
"Since we have to fight sooner or later, it's better to do it more simply, make the flag clear, and fight to survive.
As long as they can maintain the combat effectiveness they have today, no matter how many soldiers and horses the imperial court has, it won't matter if they abandon Xuzhou and fight elsewhere.
As long as they can maintain their current combat effectiveness.
If he is willing to continue to fight for the reputation of the Han family, there will definitely be people with lofty ideals who will follow him in droves."
