Yizhou is beyond Li Xiao's reach, and Li Xiao now has reality to consider. The eldest lady of the Li family is unhappy because she has not seen her brother for a year.

In later generations, Changxing Island was famous for its production of sea cucumbers. However, there was no sea cucumber farming these days. However, tens of thousands of people were stationed on the island!

Because he wanted Changxing Island to become a pure base, Li Xiao moved all the aborigines of Changxing Island to Lushun. After experiencing several disastrous defeats, Hou Jin's sphere of influence shrank sharply. Especially the two red flags that were crippled, the power

The scope even retreated all the way across the Liaohe River. Now many places south of the Liaohe River are actually in a state of anarchy. The remaining Tatar soldiers can only defend a few fortresses, looking like they are in constant panic all day long.

Lushun, as Li Xiao's settlement, became more and more prosperous. Displaced refugees came to Lushun in droves. The Jin soldiers could not even maintain Jinzhou now, and they had no idea about Lushun. On the contrary, Jin soldiers

Hundreds of Houjin cavalrymen stationed in the prefecture were on tenterhooks all day long, ready to flee at any time. Who could have imagined that the rear area a few years ago was now the fucking front line.

The weather in June was already very hot, and the sea breeze blowing against the water was indescribably cool. I happened to be sitting on Li Xiu’s birthday gift, sailing from Shanhaiguan all the way to Changxing Island. Li Xiu had already made up his mind to ask the fisherman to

Lao built this ship into the sharpest battleship in the world.

Li Xiao shook his head helplessly. The sharper he is, the more money he spends. It seems that if he doesn’t have ten thousand or two silver this time, Li Xiu will not be able to celebrate his birthday. This guy He Kegang is the one he fucking gives me.

Prodigal.

There were many fishing boats on the sea, and they quickly dodged when they saw Li Xiao's boat. The boat that can be so arrogant on the sea in the northern part of Bohai Bay must be the Li family's boat. Now from Lushun to the coastline of Shanhaiguan, all the docks are actually in Li Xiao's boat.

under the control of the family.

As long as there are signs of shipbuilding on the ground in Houjin, the Li family's warships will go over and fire two cannons, and the ship that has just started to be built will be broken into pieces. For Houjin, Li Xiao's order to Li Xiu was that no sails could be put into the sea.

.

In troubled times, everything is in chaos, and bandits are basically rampant. This is true on land, and it is also true on the sea. However, no one dares to make trouble in the northern part of the Bohai Sea. I have encountered pirates from the Japanese country and other unknown countries several times. I don’t ask.

The reason is that a cannonball sent into the sea will end the problem. In fact, armed ships sailing in the northern Bohai Sea will be attacked.

Several times, Chen Hailong's boat was also broken into pieces. The angry Chen Hailong went to Li Xiao to argue, and Li Xiao had a very good attitude. I'm sorry, it was a wrong call, and I won't do it again! Do you want compensation, because I don't have any money.

This kind of thing happened after Li Xiu rescued the next batch of ships that trafficked women from Shandong to our country. The boss of that human-smuggling ship was an old subordinate of Chen Hailong.

With the experience of the Dutch ship, Liu Laoliu and Li Xiu adapted to the Spanish warship very quickly. However, no one understood the words of the Spanish foreigners on the ship. They often did things again and then guessed each other. Every time

By this time, Li Xiao missed Ai Husheng very much. It was a pity that this guy went to the capital.

The business of Bianyifang is finally on the right track, and Li Xiao's move of bringing in high-ranking officials to buy shares is indeed a clever move. No government has ever come to inspect the business of Bianyifang. Even tax collectors will take the initiative to teach the accountants how to tax exemption, and the accountants must abide by the law.

He paid taxes and was reprimanded by the tax collector.

At the beginning, some of the policemen who patrolled the streets would cause trouble from time to time, trying to take advantage of others. As a result, these guys were expelled from the public service without exception. The adults were very fond of these flies.

If you don't know how to take action, all it takes is for the stewards of each family to move around, and the fate of the little flies is destined to be a tragedy.

"I visited the construction site today and the progress is pretty good. The two masters who are doing the construction are Zhang and Wang. It goes without saying that they are both old men working for me. The quality of the materials must be carefully checked. Shoddy quality is absolutely not allowed.

, the headmaster carefully warned me when I came here. Jingxi Courtyard is about word-of-mouth, and absolutely no bad conscience is allowed." Inside Donglaishun, sitting next to Ai Husheng were Zhang Mazi and Wang Laosan. In addition,

On one side, I was sitting thanking Youcai.

These words were obviously addressed to Xie Youcai, a veteran who had been around the capital for decades. Ai Husheng never let down his guard against this guy.

"Master Ai! From what you said, even if you have a lot of courage, you don't dare to turn a deaf ear to the boss's words. The two masters Zhang and Wang are here, but I, Lao Xie, have to make the decision. Do you want to pass off inferior products as good ones?

Something happened!" Xie Youcai immediately called out Tian Qu, and even pulled Zhang Mazi and Wang Laosan to testify against him.

"Master Ai! The supply of materials is really good. The materials sent by each company are all high-quality. We are the people who actually use them, and we know the good and the bad best. If you put your mind down and mess up the craftsmanship, we two brothers will definitely

I can't do it." Zhang Mazi obviously got along well with Xie Youcai, and Wang Laosan nodded in agreement.

"Yeah! That's good, Lao Xie. I heard that the clerks at Bianyifang are a bit bullying...!" It was obvious that Ai Husheng wanted to give his subordinates a beating. After having the final say in the capital for a long time, it was inevitable that he would be a little bit

arrogant.

Xie Youcai has been around for decades. As soon as he heard Ai Husheng's tone, he knew that his immediate boss was going to cause trouble for him. Sweat suddenly broke out on his back. Everyone knew Li Xiao's methods. This Master Ai was awesome.

He is considered Li Xiao's number one confidant. If he turns around and files a complaint against him, he might be buried under some pile of soil tomorrow!

Zhang Mazi and Wang Laosan were unable to reconcile this time, so they could only put down their chopsticks and rub their hands in embarrassment.

Xie Youcai stood up tremblingly and replied to Ai Husheng. "Master Ai! There are many good and bad people in the capital. Our business is good and others are extremely bad. There are many people who secretly spread bad medicine. Can we still open our business?"

By the end of the year, if you want to stand firm, you have to be fierce in the beginning so that others will be afraid of you. There are inevitably people who bully others, but there are not so many suitable people in Sijiu City at the moment.

You give your subordinates some time, and I promise to train them out." When Xie Youcai spoke, sweat was clearly visible on his forehead.

"Nowadays, "Three Major Disciplines and Eight Points of Attention" are being sung in Jinzhou. You should send people to learn from it. Now I am here to ask you. If the master sends someone to ask you, you know what the consequences will be. It's not far away.

He said, now our construction site is above Baiyun Villa. You don’t need me to tell you what happened to the black slaves.”

"I know, I know! I must train these little ones well." Xie Youcai shuddered when he thought of the black slaves being roasted alive by the fire. They had been roasted on the fire for half an hour, and all the human oil was roasted.

He came out. When the officers and soldiers found him, he was charred on the outside and tender on the inside.

"It's good to know...!" Just as Ai Husheng spoke, he heard a burst of noise outside. They were on the third floor, and there were large pieces of ice in the room to cool down the heat. Therefore, the windows were closed tightly, and they could hear everything.

The sound shows how loud the noise outside is.

Ai Husheng frowned and put down his chopsticks, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and looked down. Could it be that something happened downstairs just after he finished speaking.

Sure enough, there was a group of people gathered downstairs. Hesitation was condescending, and Ai Husheng could see it clearly. In the middle, four or five guys from Shuner were beating two naked men with sticks, and their lower bodies were wearing extremely tattered strips.

Beggars. The two beggars were beaten and rolled all over the floor. Their screams could be heard clearly through the glass.

Many people were watching from a distance, not daring to step forward to stop the fight. Some people covered their mouths and noses, looking like they couldn't bear to read.

Ai Husheng was extremely angry. He had just finished speaking. Something like this happened. When he looked back at Xie Youcai, the guy's face had turned pale.

"What a good thing you did. If these people come here and give you a cake, it will cost you a lot of money. If we drive people away like this now, how will our family survive in the capital in the future? Please explain to me clearly what is going on?"

"Ai Husheng stared, and Xie Youcai was so frightened that he didn't dare to say a word. He lowered his head and could only accept the punishment!

Damn it, it's really a ghost. Just after his boss finished speaking, he gave him eye drops. Now Xie Youcai really wants to strangle those guys who are beating people with sticks to death! There are countless such beggars in the capital. Generally speaking,

They can be sent away after being given a meal. Did these two guys have their uncle come today, or did they take the wrong medicine?

"I'll wipe it!" Zhang Mazi exclaimed, and Ai Husheng looked back. He saw two waiters each carrying a bucket of water, and poured it on the two beggars. The two beggars poured it like

He looked like a drowned rat, with his head full of messy hair stuck to his face. He looked as miserable as possible. Not far away, there were several government officials watching. They actually pointed at rolling in the muddy water.

The beggar is joking!

"Don't let them stop!" Ai Husheng shouted loudly. If the boss knew about this kind of thing, he would be implicated.

These guys were so arrogant that they actually waved and shouted something to the officers, seemingly asking them to lock up the two beggars.

"Promise!" Xie Youcai agreed and immediately ran out like a frightened donkey.

"Look, you two, how domineering this has become. I won't say anything if you beat an official, but beating two poor beggars is still a human thing. The big boss is the most considerate of the people. If what happened today...

Let him know. I will have to peel off my skin!" Ai Husheng was a little angry. He knew that Li Xiao was jealous of evil and would definitely take heavy action in such a matter.

Today I had planned to hit Xie Youcai, who was becoming increasingly domineering. Unexpectedly, something like this happened right under my nose.

Through the glass window, I saw Xie Youcai rushing down with a roar. He pulled away the gangsters who were committing the crime, and one of them was slapped in the face when he was about to beat him. The gangster covered his mouth and said something, holding the stick in his hand.

He also pointed and poked at the beggar.

Xie Youcai seemed to be going to check the beggar's injury, but he suddenly stepped back.

Not long after, Xie Youcai went upstairs again. Because he was running so fast, he was out of breath and his face was a little red. But after seeing Ai Husheng, he no longer felt as scared as before.

"Master Ai! This is a misunderstanding. You will know when you go down and take a look."

"Misunderstanding! I've seen it all, and you still say it's a misunderstanding?" Ai Husheng pointed at Xie Youcai's nose and shouted.

"You may not believe what I said, but you will know when you get down there." Xie Youcai bowed and asked Ai Husheng to come down and have a look.

"Hmph! I want to see what you have to say." Ai Husheng snorted and walked out of the private room with his hands behind his back.

Zhang Mazi and Wang Laosan glanced at Xie Youcai and saw Xie Youcai nodding towards them. They didn't know how Xie Youcai could be so confident. Could it be that things they saw with their own eyes could be reversed? But they couldn't say that at this time.

What, I can only follow Ai Husheng downstairs.

The gate of Donglaishun was already crowded with people. There were not five thousand but three thousand onlookers watching the excitement. Some people who could not see what was going on inside began to climb the walls. There were even people standing on the roofs and treetops to watch the excitement. For hundreds of years in the capital,

The people's habit of watching the excitement has never changed.

The guys helped Ai Husheng clear the way, all the way to the beggar in the middle.

As soon as Ai Husheng approached, a strong stench made him almost faint. The two beggars on the ground had a bloody head and bleeding, and their bodies were covered with feces and urine. Their bodies were smeared yellow, and their pants were also covered with yellow feces.

A swarm of flies surrounded him and screamed "buzz" and "buzz", and Ai Husheng even saw white maggots crawling around in his hair.

"You...!" Ai Husheng pointed at Xie Youcai, his fingers almost touching the tip of Xie Youcai's nose.

It's too much, just beat the person. Why do you still pour feces and urine on others? Could it be said that beggars are not human?

"Come here and tell the boss what happened." Xie Youcai didn't say anything, but pointed at the boy who still had a stick in his hand.

"Go back...! Go back to the boss!" When the waiter saw Xie Youcai, he was respectful to Ai Husheng. Knowing that this was a big shot, he stuttered when he spoke.

"Useless stuff!" The steward in the foyer kicked the boy, laughed and hugged Ai Husheng and said, "Big shopkeeper, you are a noble person and you don't know the methods of these bastards. These people are known as the Beggar's Gang in the capital.

They specialize in collecting money from businesses on the street. As long as they don't give you money, they will shit and urinate in front of your door. Our restaurant is prosperous, and they came to ask for money yesterday.

Our family didn't give them any money, so they left the business. Unexpectedly, these two guys came today. They were sitting in front of our door covered in feces. Our family opened a restaurant. If you do this, this business will still be good.

It couldn't be opened. A few young waiters couldn't bear it anymore and took action. You see, they all smeared the shit themselves. They even flushed it with water just now, otherwise the place would be so smelly that no one could stand there.

.

You see, those who are watching the excitement are hiding away!" The steward pointed at the onlookers who were standing far away, and asked the waiter to bring the dung basket to Ai Husheng.
Chapter completed!
