"Are you sure you read it right?" Chen Congxin hesitated. If this matter is true, it is both a great achievement that can be obtained at his fingertips and a lot of oil and water from it. And even if you kill it by mistake, it is no big deal. Every year, local naval masters have done a lot of things to kill good people and make contributions, and no one has been punished for this.

However, he has given less resources to the superiors, and he has been suppressed or dismissed from office.

Besides, there are no real good people in the sea. Those fishermen who look honest can transform into pirates when the time is right.

The guy was also eager to make contributions and said firmly: "The villain got close to see it, and he would never read it wrong. Moreover, this group of pirates all had short hair and dressed similarly to Mingren. I don't know if they had anything to do with Mingren."

Speaking of this, he became a little cautious again.

Because the Ming Dynasty made a big splash in Shandong and successively captured Jeju Island and Kyushu Island on the sea, almost all the markets in the north were monopolized by the Ming Dynasty. This led to the increasing influence of the Ming Dynasty, which in the hearts of some common people, could be regarded as a huge monster that could not be accused of.

Chen Congxin didn't take it much and said with satisfaction: "It's okay! In this huge Shenjiagang, which family does not have the identity of Ming Dynasty. But which one is a real Ming Dynasty? The Ming Dynasty's government is a bit powerful on Jeju Island. If you go out of the sea, you can't control it so far.

But you, if you can really learn from these people about Zhang Huzi’s treasure hiding place, then our Shen Family Trading Company happens to be missing a manager, I’ll look at you…”

Although the following words were not said, the implications were already very obvious.

The guy was immediately overjoyed and bowed and thanked him repeatedly: "My little man thanked me for my kindness. If I hadn't been lucky enough to take me in, I would have been buried in the belly of a fish. I have not yet been repaid for my life, so I dare not take my credit and be proud!"

However, when they fled back from Jilong Port, they happened to meet Chen Congxin's naval fleet. At that time, they were also searching for no trace on the sea and preparing to return. After learning about Zhang Huzi, they felt that Jilong Port was powerful and dared not continue to chase after him.

He didn't even report the news. After all, if the superiors assigned him to do this job, it would be a waste of time.

So based on the principle that it is better to have less than more things, he pretended that there was no such thing. As for the rescued pirate minion, he was originally going to kill him. Unfortunately, there was a strong wind that day, which almost overturned the fleet.

When the wind passed, he felt that this was not a good sign, so he did not kill any more. And this guy was also very clever. In order to save his life, he offered several treasures to the boss, which made Chen Congxin make a fortune.

In this way, he kept this guy in his family's inn to do some work.

On the other hand, Gao Mingshi and his group, led by Hu Zi, visited several major commercial stores in Shenjiagang. There were many commercial goods, and many came from Chameng Kingdom further south.

Gao Mingshi bought some of these rare things. Some of the rich people in the fleet also bought some of the silk, porcelain, and lacquer tools from the State of Song. They also bought some of them.

After all, the price of Song State is different from that of Ming State.

If you lose the difference between the distance and the entry into the country, you can save several times the money.

But on the way back, a crew member said with some concern: "Gao Jiang--" realizing that he had called the wrong person, and quickly changed his words: "Brother Gao, when I was eating the table just now, there was a guy's face very familiar. I thought about it all the way before I remembered that I had seen him in Zhang Huzi's nest."

"Oh? Did he recognize you?" Gao Mingshi's face remained unchanged and he lowered his voice.

Although this crew member was from Zhang Huzi's pirate gang, he was a gangster, and he was a hard-working man and didn't have much life on his hands. He was also oppressed when he was in the pirate gang.

Therefore, when he defected to Gao Mingshi's fleet, he also defected very thoroughly. He sold out all the knowledge.

Gao Mingshi also used such a person with confidence. So he took him with him when he returned north this time. After all, in terms of familiarity with the coastal conditions of the Song State, these pirates are more powerful.

"I'm not sure! But when Sandezi was serving the dishes, he wandered around me for a while, and I don't know if he recognized it." Speaking of this, he sighed a little, "I thought Sandezi died at the sea, but I didn't expect to see him again."

When old friends meet, neither of them has any regrets or excitement. Instead, they have a lot of defense and thoughts of making contributions. They are also desperate people among the pirates, living a life of today but not tomorrow. Except for a few friendships that are lifeless, most of the accomplices have no feelings.

Gao Mingshi couldn't have thought that there were old friends with crew members here, but since the other party might have recognized it, it would be possible that there would be many unnecessary troubles if he stayed there for a long time. Even if he had the identity of a wise man, he would not know how useful he would meet a truly powerful person in Shenjiagang.

He gave Hu Zi a hard work fee and completed the day's itinerary. Then he quickly took the remaining people back to the boat and prepared to leave.

However, their movements were still slow. When they were about to reach the dock, a large group of people gathered in front. The crew members with agility pulled the people who were watching the fun nearby and started chatting. They learned that the government was arresting the remaining pirates, so the road was blocked in front.

"Hey! I don't know which pirate is so unlucky, but don't implicate innocent people." A onlooker murmured.

The people on these islands are familiar with pirates. They often work part-time, so they don’t even hate them. When the weather is not good, those pirates who come to sell stolen goods are still hope for their poor families to survive.

"Yes, if the new boat I just rented was taken by the government for excuses, what would it be?" Another people who had a pleat on their faces and seemed to be bent by life also echoed. This government always implicates innocent people in capturing pirates and uses the authority to plunder the people's wealth and ointment.

Therefore, compared to pirates, the people are more afraid of the government.

It is most appropriate to describe it as fearing an official like a tiger.

"I didn't expect that we might have to find another way to live." Gao Mingshi learned the news and led the people to a nearby teahouse, frowned and pondered.

I don’t know how the fleet will suffer. If it falls into the hands of the Song government, the loss of commercial goods will be small, and the loss of people will be a big deal. This is also the principle that the Ming government has always been, and the value of people will always rank first. What’s more, there are not many crew members familiar with water in the Ming Navy, and those who join the exploration fleet are even more elite.
