Chapter 216 Some guesses

(Thank you for your monthly ticket for frb9898~~)

Bian Yujing and Kou Baimen walked in front, and the maid followed behind him. Because of Zhu Guoneng's affairs, they were quite disappointed and both remained silent.

The maid from Koubaimen called Chunxiang, who seemed to have thought of something, caught up with her two steps, and whispered: "Girl, I always feel that Manager Shao is showing his attention for nothing. Could it be that he has made the girl's idea?"

"impossible!"

Kou Baimen shivered violently.

Bian Yujing frowned and shook his head, "Manager Shao put his attitude very low, which seemed to be flattering and pleasing. I don't think it's possible. If he is really moved by A Mei, this shouldn't be the attitude."

Bian Yujing's maid Qiuyue guessed: "Shao Shixin is Mr. Li's person. Doesn't he... want to present Miss Kou to Mr. Li? As a rank of promotion, he was appreciated and valued by Mr. Li."

"You little hoof is itchy, right? What are you talking nonsense?"

Bian Jing turned around and said dissatisfied.

Qiuyue muttered aggrievedly: "I'm just guessing it. A while ago, Nanjing heard that the Empress Tian in Beijing was almost out of reach. Tian Guojiu was afraid of losing favor and planned to send someone to Nanjing to find a beautiful girl to the emperor. These men can't do anything for fame and fortune? Then Shao Shixin is a clever person, so it's not surprising that he put his ideas on Miss Kou."

Kou Baimen's heart was pounding. Judging from Shao Shixin's attentiveness, it seemed that he had intentions in this regard. There was an unspeakable humiliation in her heart. It was true that she admired Li Xin, but she never wanted to be presented to Li Xin as a toy. She immediately snorted: "That's his wishful thinking. Although I am from a prostitute, I will never let myself be offered!"

Bian Yujing advised, "Okay, don't be bitter. What does the person surnamed Shao want is just a guess, let alone what's wrong with being a concubine for Mr. Li. I heard that Mr. Li is good at keeping a clean body, only one wife and one concubine, so Mrs. Hong won't mention it. His concubine is Li Zicheng's wife, and she is thirty years old. What is he trying to do? If someone is as young as him and has a high position, what kind of woman do you want? A Mei, if you follow Mr. Li, that's your blessing."

"Why don't you go with him?"

Kou Baimen said unhappy.

Bian Yujing laughed: "I've been thinking about it all the time. Oh, no, no, I'm sick of lovesickness. When Mr. Li comes back, I will send him a letter to tell him..."

"Tell him what?"

Kou Baimen asked nervously.

"Keep confidential, let's go home early!"

Bian Yujing pulled up Kou Baimen and accelerated his pace.

Kou Baimen was secretly angry and glared at him fiercely.

...

In the store, Shao Shixin was so annoyed by a few foreigners.

The foreigner claimed to be from England and was an overseas trader. He was attracted by the manufacturing process of glassware and was willing to buy it with gold coins.

Shao Shixin had a headache. These foreigners were covered in hair and had thick bodies, and emitted an unpleasant smell. The oldest was about forty years old, and the other two were in their twenties. The two women looked mother and daughter. The mother was bloated, with yellow-brown patches on her face and muscles on her arms.

My daughter is about twenty years old, with big wavy blond hair and blue eyes that make people feel panicked. She has an extremely hot figure. She has a large piece of her chest, and her two half-balls are dazzling white. She doesn't care about the strange gazes that others cast.

'barbarian!'

Shao Shixin said intimately, then he was in pain, and cooperated with the gesture and said, "Don't sell!"

In previous communications, he found that cherishing words like gold is conducive to communication. The more you say, the harder it is to understand. Therefore, as smooth as him, he has to have edges and corners.

"Why? How many gold coins, you said!"

Middle-aged women speak bad Chinese.

Shao Shixin felt that he could not express his meaning in simple language, so he brought a ingot of silver, looked at the five people, pushed them aside, and then said, "I understand?"

"No money?"

The young girl showed surprise and said with difficulty.

Shao Shixin was stunned. His original intention was that Liuli's formula could not be bought with money, but it was understood to be for no money. However, he didn't know how to correct the other party's perception. When he was anxious, the middle-aged man said, "What do you need? The price is easy to negotiate."

Finally, I met someone who understands it!

Shao Shixin spent a lot of effort to make foreigners understand that the formula was not decided by him, but was created by Commander-in-Chief Li Xin. The middle-aged man expressed the intention of introducing Li Xin on his behalf. Shao Shixin refused to say that the Commander-in-Chief was fighting outside and could not be seen for the time being.

The foreigner showed disappointment and said that he would introduce him when Li Xin came back, so he left the store.

At that time, foreigners were rarer than those in the Qing Dynasty. Faced with strange gazes all over the street, these five people didn't care at all, especially girls. After finding that many men were secretly looking at her breasts, they held up proudly, and said: "Father, we must get the method of purifying glass. The glass made by Italians is purple, and it is sold for such a high price. It hides like a treasure. If we get the recipe, our family will be rich and we will no longer have to be pirates!"

"Yes, it's hard to be a pirate!"

The mother sighed: "His Majesty the King encouraged the British people to form a fleet and rob the Spaniards of their property. We started to make a few votes, which went smoothly, but we all blamed me. I robbed them from the sea and even took them out of ideas to rob the Spanish colonies in South America. Your father was drinking and misleading the matter. He was discovered by the Spaniards and chased them all the way across the Pacific Ocean. Oh, my God, didn't he just rob some gold? As for?"

"Fake!"

A young man in his twenties said angrily: "We have more than ten warships, and only one of them is chased. Fortunately, when we came to Ming Dynasty, the Spaniards dare not be presumptuous. No matter what the price we paid, we must get the formula to make glass. When we have money, we can rebuild warships, recruit people and avenge the Spanish!"

The girl said, "It turns out that the government officials are very arrogant. People like us may not be able to see each other. Don't think that it's so beautiful. Let's wait until Commander Li comes back!"

"Damn Spanish!"

The young man punched hard!

...

Before he knew it, three days passed. As expected, Liuli sold out the goods and had nearly a thousand households for booking doors and windows. However, the war was not over and Liuli in the East China Sea could not be transported to Nanjing. Many customers cursed Hou Xun and Sun Chuanting, saying that they secretly colluded with Tartars to shame their ancestors and would not die well.

Some people call them unrighteous people who are ungrateful and ungrateful, and they will be retribution in the future.

For this reason, the Odemilitary Emperor began to praise Hou Xun and Sun Chuanting, and blew up the glorious history of the past. Unfortunately, Hou Xun was an official all his life. Apart from promoting Zuo Liangyu, he had no remarkable political achievements. If he strictly counted it, the unjust soul who died in Zuo Liangyu's hands may not be able to escape.

Sun Chuanting is not a good guy either. He fought a war for his life and wiped out countless bandits, but where did his food and salary come from?

Like Li Zicheng, they were all robbing the people, but Li Zicheng robbed the people and at least brought the people with him and gave him a bite of food. Sun Chuanting robbed money and wanted to kill people, so the heads could make a fortune.

Li Xin canceled the method of using heads to calculate his merits. In addition to the inability to count heads in the musket era, another important reason is to eliminate the killing of good people!

Therefore, after all, they are all the same as the third child, without any novelty, but what is surprising is that Ming Pao did not sing the opposite tune with Li Bao, as if he had ignored Hou Xun and Sun Chuanting.

At the city of Yangzhou, the battle had been fought for three days, and the Ming army made no progress and left more than a thousand corpses.

That's right, after three days of fighting, the Ming army only killed more than a thousand people. Shi Kefa and Hong Niangzi were helpless. The Ming army's offensive was soft and mostly perfunctory. The bandit army had limited troops and could barely defend the city and was unable to attack, which led to the current situation.

This was actually caused by Sun Chuanting. He wanted to make Hou Xun lose his battle, but he could not lose too much troops. He cleverly walked the tightrope. Fortunately, he led his troops to fight for more than ten years and had rich experience, so he was not afraid of making trouble.

The sky gradually became dark. Sun Chuanting looked at the Yangzhou city under the setting sun and sighed: "Brother Dazhen, I have been fighting fiercely for three days and have not defeated the enemy. The morale of the army has already fluctuated. Why not retreat to Nanjing at night?"

Hou Xun hesitated and said, "It's hard to explain it when he returns without success!"

Sun Chuanting said in a deep voice: "Any soldier can always make a comeback. Li Xin is arrogant and fights the Eastern Barbarians. If I expected it, the best result will be both sides and both sides will be injured, and they may even be defeated. Therefore, it is better to wait for news from the north to make plans."

"Well!"

Hou Xun thought about it, if Li Xin was defeated, Yangzhou would inevitably be filled with people. If he fought again, he would be able to achieve twice the result with half the effort!
