"Your Majesty!" Xu Jie said in a deep thought: "Luo Xin once defeated Huang Taiji and repaired the Wanshou Palace for Your Majesty. I think he still has the ability. It's just that he first arrived in the southeast and everything is not very familiar. He is in the midst of familiarity. Your Majesty should give Luo Xin a little more time. The old minister firmly believes that Luo Xin will definitely not let His Majesty down."

Emperor Jiajing nodded, then looked at Gao Gong and said, "What do you think Gao Qing?"

Gao Gong hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid there is no one in the court who knows more about financial management than Luo Xin."

Emperor Jiajing remembered Luo Xin's repair of Wanshou Palace and nodded again. Lu Bing, who was beside him, was anxious, but he could do anything. Finally, Emperor Jiajing said, "

"Then let's watch it for a few more days."

night.

Qiantang River and Wusong River.

There were endless carriages and horses, and the six major families in the southeast continued to deliver goods to the shore, waiting for the arrival of maritime merchants.

In fact, those maritime merchants are not maritime merchants at all, but pirates. They have monopolized maritime trade, obtained goods from the Ming Dynasty, and then sold them to maritime merchants in the vassal states at sea, making profits at both ends. If the Ming Dynasty caravan dares to go out to sea privately, or the caravans in the vassal state dares to buy goods privately from the Ming Dynasty, they will be intercepted and killed by pirates at sea.

Among these pirates, the two biggest forces were Wang Zhi and Xu Hai. Originally, Wang Zhi had been negotiating with Hu Zongxian. When he saw Luo Xin coming to the southeast to establish the Maritime Warehouse Division, he planned to stop smuggling, but instead did business with Luo Xin's Maritime Warehouse Division in a dignified manner. However, when he saw Luo Xin's embarrassing situation, he continued to negotiate with Hu Zongxian while continuing to smuggling.

At this time, the fleet sent by Xu Hai and some small pirates were sailing towards the Wusong River, while the fleet sent by Wang Zhi and some small pirates were sailing towards the Qiantang River. Each fleet had more than twenty large ships, so Wang Zhi and Xu Hai naturally would not come in person, but they sent their subordinates to bring more than a thousand pirates. They were the kings on the sea, and the confidence they had created made them believe that no one dared to provoke them.

"Here you come!"

Someone shouted at the six major families on the shore, and these people are naturally from the six major families, but they have no direct descendants. After all, this is smuggling, and as the six major families, it is necessary to avoid taboos. They just sent their children and housekeepers to come forward to manage, while they are in charge of everything behind their backs.

The people on the shore looked towards the water and saw more than twenty large ships breaking through the darkness and sailing towards the shore. They approached the shore, put down the bridge boards, and pirates walked down one by one. The people in the leaders contacted the six major families and brought boxes of gold and silver from the ship. The people of the six major families began to transport cargo on the ship.

Time is losing rapidly. Several island leaders, illegitimate disciples from six major families, and housekeepers were chatting. Two-thirds of the gold and silver on the ship had been moved to the shore, and two-thirds of the goods on the shore were moved to the ship.

At this moment...

"Boom..."

A sound like a muffled thunder suddenly came from a distance, which was the sound of dense horse hooves hitting the earth. Under the moonlight, teams of black shadows suddenly appeared.

"Caval!" I don't know who shouted.

"Swoosh swish swish..."

The moon in the sky seemed to have disappeared, covered by an arrow, and a wail sounded on the shore, and countless children of six major families and pirates fell to the ground.

"kill……"

Thousands of people suddenly appeared, and the very spicy killing made people from the six major families dull there. On the contrary, the pirates reacted much faster. In the darkness, they couldn't tell how many people were attacking them. And they saw their companions fall down with their own eyes, and in an instant they fell half of them, and they ran towards the waterside, jumped onto the springboard, and ran towards the boat.

"Swoosh swish swish..."

The cavalry had rushed to the front, and sharp arrows headed towards the boat. From time to time, screams sounded, accompanied by someone shouting:

"Drive the boat!Drive the boat!"

More than a thousand pirates had only more than 500 people left the shore in more than twenty sea boats, heading deep into the water, and soon disappeared in the darkness.

Qi Jiguang slapped the saddle hard and said to himself: "If Master Lu is willing to cooperate with Lord Luo and dispatch the navy to intercept him, all of these pirates will run."

He was very upset and looked back at the people on the shore. Among those, there were more than 300 people from six major families and fifty pirates. Qi Jiguang shouted:

"Catch them away!"

"Who are you!" At this time, a young man came out and looked at Qi Jiguang in the dark and said, "I am a disciple of the Cui family, how dare you catch me?"

Qi Jiguang's eyes narrowed slightly and jumped off his horse, a smile appeared on his face and walked to the young man, and said intimately:

"The original urging young master, the lower official will let you go now. If your servants are arrested, you need your Cui family to redeem them with money. Who else is the child or the housekeeper of a big family? Yes, stand up and let me confirm it and let you leave."

"I belong to the Lu family!"

"I belong to the Lu family!"

“…………”

In just a moment, several children of aristocratic families and housekeepers came out. Qi Jiguang waved his hand and said:

"Catch these people into the military camp, lock them up alone, tie the rest, lock them up in the military camp, and transport all the gold, silver and goods to the military camp."

Speaking of this, Qi Jiguang stared at his soldiers fiercely and said, "I know who you are, but remember that these goods and gold and silver belong to Lord Luo, and no one is allowed to move."

"yes!"

The soldiers responded with a loud bang, and then tied up people and transported goods. Qi Jiguang cleaned the battlefield at Wusongkou, and Luo Qing was the same on the Qiantang River.

Before dawn, Wusongkou and Qiantang River were empty, and there was not even a box of goods left.

At this time, among the six major families, the clan leader and important clan leader were still sitting in the lobby waiting. There was only fifteen every month to trade, so the heads of the six major families would not sleep on this day, but waited for the news of the successful transaction to return, and the gold and silver they received were transported back, and usually the gold and silver were transported back before dawn. Therefore, they all sat in the lobby while drinking tea while waiting.

Maritime Department.

Luo Xin was also waiting, but he didn't know how to wait for Qi Jiguang and Luo Qing, because Qi Jiguang and Luo Qing were two men, and they had a sudden attack, how could they fail?

At this time, he was concerned about another surprise soldier, the power of the sea, and Luo Sheng's navy. He had to worry, after all, Luo Sheng and the others had not experienced a real naval battle.

The ships that escaped from Wusongkou and Qiantang River had just arrived at the sea area and saw a fleet of ships passing by. The pirates thought they were their supporters and rushed towards the opposite side without any warning.

"Swoosh swish swish..."

Suddenly there were starry lights of fire flying towards their ships in the night sky. Before they could react, the stars fell on the ship, and then made a thunderous roar, causing the pirates to sit on the ground. The mind was subjected to huge fear. The ship opposite leaned on it and jumped up one by one. The pirates were completely out of sight by the thunderbolt, and they were distracted. Luo Sheng's people immediately confiscated their weapons and drove them to put out the fire. The pirates' minds were still buzzing, and instinctively and mechanically began to put out the fire. After extinguishing the fire on the ship, the pirates also woke up and saw Luo Sheng and others holding sharp blades, while they were unarmed, kneeling on the ground one by one, and they didn't even dare to show their energy.

Naturally, Luo Sheng did not kill them. He needs manpower now. Whether it is to conquer Taiwan Island or establish a country on Taiwan Island in the future, he needs manpower very much. He immediately dispersed the remaining hundreds of people and distributed them to ships, and then sailed towards the bank of Qiantang River.

In the night.

Luo Sheng's ship docked, Luo Sheng lit a torch, turned around three times in the air, and then saw that there was also a torch on the shore and turned around three times.

"Dang, put bridge boards, and carry things." Luo Sheng ordered.

At the same time, nearly two thousand people rushed out of the shore, and the leader was Wan Daquan. The nearly two thousand people were soldiers recruited by Tang Zhuang from the north in the past month.

With a sound of wheels, a hundred carriages drove from the night and stopped on the shore. Nearly two thousand people on the shore, plus the thousands on the boat, quickly filled a hundred carriages. Then the nearly two thousand people followed Luo Sheng onto the ship, and more than seventy ships pulled anchors and disappeared quickly in the night. Wan Daquan and his men drove a hundred carriages toward the manor outside Hangzhou City.

On the sea.

Luo Sheng stood at the bow of the boat, looked towards Hangzhou, and murmured in a low voice:

"I don't know when the next meeting will be."

Hangzhou.

Maritime Department.

Luo Xin stood on the rockery with his hands behind his back, looked towards the sea, and murmured in a low voice:

"It should be over!"

At this time, the entire Maritime Division was extremely quiet. The hundred guards around him were not in Maritime Division at this time. It would be much easier if someone wanted to assassinate him at this time.

A trace of white appeared in the sky.

Luo Xin held the hilt of the long sword inserted on the ground, and a smile appeared on his face.

"It's a pity that no one came to assassinate me! I guess everyone treats me as a coward, right? Are you waiting for me to leave Hangzhou in shame?"

Dawn.

The city gate is wide open.

Wan Daquan and his hundred subordinates rushed into the city and rushed towards the Maritime Warehouse. The soldiers guarding the city looked at Wan Daquan and the others' backs, spitting on the ground and said:

"You can't go to the funeral! Your master can't make it anymore. You are so arrogant!"

Before he finished speaking, he heard the sound of horse hooves in his ears. When he turned around, he saw hundreds of horsemen galloping towards the city gate. The two leaders were Qi Jiguang and Luo Qing.

At the same time, on the banks of Wusongkou and Qiantang River, the heads of the six major families were standing there with people, with no people, no goods, and no ships. The ground was a little messy and there were blood stains.

"What happened!" A bad idea came to their minds.

"Sir!" Wan Daquan stepped into Luo Xin's study and called out with joy.

"Success?" Luo Xin stared at Wan Daquan with bright eyes.

Wan Daquan nodded excitedly and said, "It's successful."

A sound of footsteps came, and Lu Daqing walked in quickly and said, "Mr. Marquis, General Qi and the uncle are here."

Luo Xin stood up and said, "Please wait in the second hall, I'll come later."

After a while, Luo Xin walked out in his official uniform and discussed with Qi Jiguang and Luo Qing. Qi Jiguang and Luo Qing left. Luo Xin sat in the second hall and drank a cup of tea, put down the tea cup and said to Lu Daqing:

"Please ask Lord He and Lord Wang."

"Yes, Marquis!"

A moment later, He Nian and Wang Ziren came to the second hall. Luo Xin said to Wang Ziren: "Take all the things you have prepared, and we will go to the prefect's office."

Wang Ziren immediately looked excited and said, "Sir, are you going to do it?"

Luo Xin nodded and said, "It's time for us to do it."

"Sir, wait!"

Wang Ziren hurriedly left, and after a moment, he returned to Hall II with a stack of paper in his arms and said to Luo Xin:

"Sir, all are ready."
