Daming Haiku

Chapter 53 Complain

The Spring Festival, the most important festival for Chinese people, is naturally not immune to the customs of Nanri Island. In addition to the necessary vigilance cruise, Yu Xiaotian ordered to stop all sea operations, of course, not including the blackheads sent by him to Taiwan Island for investigation.

According to Yu Xiaotian's request, the leaders took a rest after arranging the rotation. They were nervous for more than half a year. Except for a few days when Yu Xiaotian got married, now during the holiday, the leaders have relaxed.

Yu Xiaotianming's director hall, according to the different levels of the ministry, gave each of them red envelopes of different sizes as an additional reward for them in the past six months. At the same time, the council hall allocated the reserve of wine and meat to the barracks to add meals for the members of the ministry.

The sea wolf people are naturally very satisfied with such benefits. In addition to these, everyone has also obtained a new set of winter and summer clothes, which can allow them to change into new clothes.

There are families on the island, and every family also gives them some oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, rice and salted fish and bacon, so that the family members can also have a good year.

In addition, for some garrison, such as the garrison of Nangantang and the leftovers on Treasure Island, Yu Xiaotian did not forget them. The reward should be doubled to send them, and at the same time doubled the wine and meat sent, and asked the prostitutes to send several prostitutes to accompany the ship to "condolence" them.

Such welfare benefits have never been seen before by the Shark Gang, so the sea wolf members from top to bottom are very satisfied with the generosity of Xiaotian, and invisibly condensed them a lot.

The merchants in the commercial port area also took a rest during the Spring Festival. Some merchants went home, including some of their staff, who also returned to the land for the festival, making the commercial area seem deserted, but several restaurants, prostitutes and casinos opened by the governing hall became more lively during the year.

What else can the sea wolves who got the opportunity to take a break, especially those homeless bachelors, do after getting salaries and rewards? Naturally, these people will take the money they have and go to casinos, restaurants and prostitutes to spend, so that the restaurants and prostitutes will be full day and night, and the business will be overwhelmed.

This made the * people in the brothel busy. They had little chance to breathe all day long. They lay down and stood up and then immediately lay down again. They were so tired that they cried bitterly.

However, this kind of thing is about the shopkeeper and the old pimp. Yu Xiaotian will not ask about this kind of thing. He abolished the original public prostitutes and let those public prostitutes choose to stay by themselves. Those who are willing to follow the good. Those who don't want to do this business can go to the prostitutes on the island by themselves. The sea wolf is responsible for protection. Protect their interests and let them earn more money.

As for the casino opened by the director's hall, it is another financial source of Yu Xiaotian. Since ancient times, there has been no casino that is not profitable. Many gambling followers received silver with their front feet and rushed into the casino with their back feet. Although some people were lucky enough to win silver and came out of the casino happily, most of them still lost. Confused, in a blink of an eye, he returned the money to the council.

And the rule of Nanri Island casino is that they will never owe debts, never borrow money, and leave if they lose all. They are not allowed to be in the casino anymore, so that they can no longer pay off their debts before, which will cause trouble for gamblers in the future.

Yu Xiaotian has to deal with the congratulations of the people every day, while taking Lan'er, a lady, to the island, craftsmen and the people for so-called condolences.

There is no need to say more about the craftsmen. They are the foundation of Yu Xiaotian. In the future, the growth of sea wolves will depend on their craftsmanship, so they also have what they have, but the amount is slightly less. Every family also has firewood, rice, oil and salt to give them, so that they can have no worries about food and clothing. Each family will give another one. Cloth, let them make some new clothes. Anyway, if they have money, if they don't have enough, they can go to the commercial port area to purchase by themselves, so their life is not bad compared with when they were on land, which also makes them feel at ease.

Especially for the new immigrants and former fishermen on the island, Yu Xiaotian specially asked the council to prepare some materials as gifts for the festival.

In addition, for the immigrants who have just emigrated and have no secure life, Yu Xiaotian told them that he could not bear to watch these people have a cold and shabby festival, and each family also sent more or less rice, salt and a small amount of salt fish, at least so that they would not be hungry for the festival.

Such measures surprised the new immigrants and old residents on the island and almost fell to the ground. In the past, they could not imagine such a thing, but they did not expect that after Xiaotian entered the South Ri Island, they would treat them so generously, which made many new and old residents treat Xiaotian, a pirate. I am so grateful that people's hearts naturally stabilized.

At least during the Spring Festival, no civilians on the island had a meal, let alone starve to death. For civilians, their minds are very simple. Who is good to them and who is bad to them, they naturally have a scale in their hearts. Yu Xiaotian treats them so generously, and they will naturally gradually He is one with Yu Xiaotian, not to mention that they will rely on Yu Xiaotian to survive in the future, so if anyone wants to replace Yu Xiaotian now, I guess the ordinary people on these islands will not agree.

Some people are not very happy about Yu Xiaotian's extravagance and waste. For example, a few people such as Ma Feng think that the money spent by Yu Xiaotian is earned by them desperately and should be given more, but now it is sprinkled by Yu Xiaotian to those useless civilians, and they are simply using him. Our money buys people's hearts.

However, this kind of person did not dare to vent this emotion easily. He could only complain secretly. During the holiday, Ma Feng found Wang Hong and Fang An to drink and mentioned it.

"I said that the third brother and fifth brother, you also said that we are working hard. We are as tired as dogs every day. It is not easy to make some money, but now the big head of the family uses this money as money and just does something useless things!

You said that our life on the island is just a little better now. He went to get so many ordinary people to come here and take care of their food and drink. It's better to share this money with everyone. Why bother to do these useless things? Isn't it enough money to burn?

After drinking a few bowls of wine, Ma Feng began to complain to Wang Hong and Fang An.

Wang Hong looked at Ma Feng and stared, "I said, Lao Wu, can't you be idle for a while? Who is the big head? What can he do? Do I have to ask you to agree first?

Besides, you can also take a look at it yourself. Now that the big head has come here, how are our brothers doing? Who still makes us angry every day? We just have to eat and do things. We used to take care of the chores, but now the big head has taken over. How are you doing?

You are just insatiable. You always feel that this is not and that. You always feel sorry for you! Tell me, how much money did the big man give you this New Year? In the past, when we followed Zhang Hu, who took care of us during the Spring Festival? At most, it's just a good meal together!

Save it, boy! I can see that our boss is not a mortal. Follow him. Wang Hong always feels that he has a head. Is it possible that you still want to change to a bastard like Zhang Hu to take us to do things?

Ma Feng was scolded by Wang Hong and was very unhappy. He bowed his head and drank wine without saying anything.

Fang An stopped Wang Hong, didn't let Wang Hong continue to count Ma Feng, and then said to Ma Feng, "Lao Ba! What you said is really a little too much!

I have been watching the big man for so long. He knows how to advance and retreat very well, and he can basically do a bowl of water for his brothers. He never deducts and treats his brothers badly, and gives everything he should be given to his brothers!

Although you don't like the big head spend so much money, you don't think about it more. It's very meaningful for the big head to do so! What do we sea wolves lack now? It's not a lack of money, but a shortage of people!

Now we can walk horizontally in this area, but the big boss is right. We can't just look at our eyes. We must live in peace and think of danger.

At present, we can go to the land procurement if we lack anything, but in case the government turns against us in the future, what should we do if we are short of food?

So the big head thought of this and made so many immigrants to open up wasteland and farm the island to meet at least part of our needs!

In addition, there are more people on the island. Who do they live on? Don't you have to rely on us? The big head is good to them, and they will naturally be grateful to us. If anyone wants to live with us in the future, who will the people on the island face?

And those fishermen in the fishing village, you can also take a look. In the past, I saw us hiding like mice and cats! What about now? Seeing that we talked and laughing, they went to sea to fish. When they saw any wind and grass, they didn't fight the fish, so they all had to come back to report to us!

Why is this? Lao Ba, think about it, isn't it because the big boss is good for them? In the past, we were always afraid of people coming to attack us, and we had to arrange a lot of sentries out to stare every day. What about now? It's enough to send up to four sentry boats every day. The fishermen on the island are watching for us. What are you afraid of?

You have also seen what kind of person the big master is. After he came, he repaired the boat, built a cannon, a blacksmith's shop, a wooden workshop, a clothing workshop, and opened a salt farm...

Who has thought about this before? Now you see, we can cast cannons by ourselves, and what we cast from the beginning is the Hongyi cannon. Isn't it done by the big man? Who dares to think about this before?

The heart of the big boss is very big, far bigger than our heart. Only by following such a person can we make our lead. I dare not say that we can follow him to worship each other in the future. At least we will have more face in the future than before!

Lao Ba, it's not the third brother who told me about you, your temper really needs to be changed! Don't always feel sorry for you. Work hard!"

After listening to Fang An's words, Ma Feng had to roll his eyes, nodded and agreed, put aside the topic, and then drank wine with Wang Hong and Fang An.

(It was good last night. At least I didn't have a fever. Keep it updated today! In addition, thank you for the reward of fishing friends on the river!)
