Chapter 138 Suspected of Enemy

After Chu Cailao was rejected for the first time, he did not give up. He also learned about the battle between Yu Xiaotian and the Spaniards, and heard that the sea wolf had won a complete victory and destroyed the Spanish splint fleet, which really shocked him.

So he believes more that he can't afford to deal with sea wolves. If he wants to get along at sea in the future, he has to have a good relationship with sea wolves. If he wants to fight against Zheng Yiguan, he must get support from Yu Xiaotian. Now cannons are really difficult to deal with. The war in Liaodong is getting tighter and tighter. Ting kept urging Guangdong and Fujian to deliver Hongyi cannons to the north. Now Hongyi cannons have been cast all over the land, but they can't get them at all.

Zheng Yiguan got a lot of Hongyi cannons from the Portuguese, which greatly improved his strength. Chu Cai has no place to get this kind of cannon. At present, he has no choice but to find a way to find a sea wolf*.

In addition, he also learned that Yu Xiaotian was seriously injured during the war with the Spanish and has been healing on Nanri Island during this period, which is also an opportunity for Chu Cailao. If he takes the initiative to show his goodwill to Xiaotian at this time, it cannot be said to be a help in the snow, at least it is a sign of friendliness.

So he immediately sent his men to prepare a rather generous gift, including Liaodong ginseng and tiger bones, which are now extremely difficult to buy. Since the Nu rebel, Guannei has been basically out of stock. Only very few people can get some of this kind of thing from Liaodong through underground channels. Now the current price In addition to being more expensive than gold, there is still a market price, but Mr. Chu Cai still did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to get more than a dozen adult ginseng, and tried to get a lot of healing drugs on land, and sent someone to send it to Yu Xiaotian.

His idea is that in case Yu Xiaotian is seriously injured and returns to the west, he will at least establish a better relationship with the successor of the sea wolf through such a goodwill to make up for the conflict between the two sides. In the future, he will be able to deal with his successor without Yu Xiaotian.

But the second time he sent someone, Yu Xiaotian's injury had greatly improved and began to see things.

When he heard that Mr. Chu sent someone to give him a gift, Yu Xiaotian laughed and immediately ordered Mr. Chu to send an envoy to his front hall.

The person Chu Cai Lao sent this time is Ma Xiang, the general manager of his old camp. This Ma Xiang is his left and right arm and his most trusted person. He sent Ma Xiang here, which shows how much Chu Cai Lao attaches great importance to this matter.

Yu Xiaotian still remembers Ma Xiang's name, because he also secretly talked and laughed with Lin Yiyang and others for this reason. In addition, he also saw Ma Xiang when he went to Bengang to negotiate with Chu Cailao, so he was no stranger to him.

As soon as Ma Xiang entered Yu Xiaotian's living room, he immediately saluted Xiaotian, and it was the etiquette of his subordinates to see the superiors. He was very respectful to Xiaotian. After seeing that Yu Xiaotian's face was not good, he obviously had begun to recover, he congratulated Yu Xiaotian repeatedly.

With that, Ma Xiang took out the gift list from his arms, raised his hands above his head and presented it to Yu Xiaotian. Qinwei took the gift list and sent it to Yu Xiaotian. Yu Xiaotian glanced at the gift list and smiled secretly in his heart. This gift was really valuable. Thirteen four to eight taels of Liao ginseng, a whole set of tiger bones, two strings of eastern pearls, and golden five Ten taels, 2,000 taels of silver, and 2,000 catties of Japanese red copper.

Such a gift is really a generous gift. If it is converted into silver, it will be at least about 10,000 taels. It can be seen that Mr. Chu Cai is really desperate and has spent a lot of money this time.

"Thank you, big shopkeeper, for such a heavy gift. How can you afford it without success!" Yu Xiaotian put the gift list on the coffee table at hand with a smile and said to Ma Xiang.

"I hope the head of the house will accept it! This time, our big shopkeeper was very impressed when he heard the news that the big owner was injured! Our big shopkeeper has been talking about this all this time.

Although we have had unpleasant trouble with your department before, our big shopkeeper has always admired you as the big leader. When people mentioned you many times, they said that you were a hero at that time and a young man!

The reason why we made such a mess at the beginning is that Master Zhou secretly instigated. Originally, our big shopkeeper just asked him to come and discuss how to reconcile with the big master, but the guy opened his mouth to the big lion and threatened him, and even tried to blackmail you!

We didn't know these things until later. Later, when the guys couldn't force them, they became angry and went back to encourage our big shopkeepers to use force against you in charge, so that they were out of control.

Now our big shopkeeper has found out that these things are secretly instigated by the guy surnamed Zhou, which made such a mistake.

So our big shopkeeper always felt guilty about this. This time, he was even more uneasy when he heard that the owner was injured. He also wanted to visit you in person, but he was really busy with chores and couldn't leave, so he sent the little one to visit him on his behalf.

These small gifts are not respectful, and I hope the head can accept them with a smile! In addition, our shopkeeper has also prepared another generous gift for the head of the house. Please accept it!"

As he said, he motioned to the people who followed him and presented the gift, so Yu Xiaotian nodded. The guard went to the door to take a wooden box and put it on the ground. Yu Xiaotian nodded and let the guard open it.

After the wooden box was opened, everyone took a deep breath, because there was a human head in the wooden box. The guard was about to scold Ma Xiang. Why did he bring such things as a gift? Yu Xiaotian reached out his hand to stop the guard. After watching carefully, he found that he knew the owner of this head.

This head is the head of Master Zhou who was sent by Mr. Chu Cai to negotiate with him. This time, he was killed by Mr. Chu Cai and sent his head as a gift. It can be seen how much sacrifice Chu Cailao has made to show his goodwill to Xiaotian this time.

Poor Master Zhou, he really met a bad person. In order to make peace with Mr. Chu Cai and Yu Xiaotian, he was chopped like a worthless dog.

Anyway, Mr. Chu Cai is now clear that he had a conflict with the sea wolf because of this guy. The shit basin was completely on this guy's head and killed him, which was an explanation for Yu Xiaotian. Even if Yu Xiaotian didn't believe it, there was nothing to say.

After Yu Xiaotian looked at it, he asked people to put away the box and find a place to bury it. He had no requirements for killing Master Zhou. Whether he killed or not, he was just a scapegoat.

"So it is! Then I will accept this generous gift! Thank you for the generous gift from the big shopkeeper Chu! People like this should be killed! If it weren't for him, how could both of us have made such a deal? In this case, it's okay to expose the past. After all, the shopkeeper Chu and I are both colleagues doing business on this sea. Speaking of which, we will still look up and see each other in the future! It's much better than mutual hostility!

By the way, some time ago, when I was seriously injured, I heard that you came here. At that time, Yu was in poor health and couldn't see things. I hope you can forgive me! I don't know what I can do to help you, just ask Brother Ma to say it directly!" Yu Xiaotian smiled with satisfaction and said to Ma Xiang with a smile.

Ma Xiang was overjoyed and felt that there was no way out today, so he brought out a batch of artillery that Chu Cailao wanted to get rid of Yu Xiaotian while the iron was hot.

Yu Xiaotian frowned, touched the beard on his chin, thought about it, and said, "So it is!" This... I'm afraid it's not easy to do!"

Ma Xiang quickly said, "In charge, Zheng Yiguan is a man with a great appetite and wild mind. He is dealing with us now. Once he is full of wings, he is not guaranteed to come to deal with the boss. Recently, I have heard that Zheng Yiguan has already planned to be unfavorable to you and has tried many times. Be in the house of your cargo ship.

Last month, we had a brother's boat. On the sea of Zhangzhou, we met Zheng Yiguan's men and tried to chase a cargo ship of your department. Our brother immediately helped and drove Zheng Yiguan's men away!

Now we can only turn to you as the head of the family. You should know that Zheng Yiguan and the Buddha machine man in Jingao have a deep relationship. At present, he is currently getting a large number of Hongyi cannons from the Buddha machine people. I'm afraid this is not just to be used to deal with us. In time, this man will certainly be unfavorable to you, so I hope that the head of the family will not hesitate to sell us some cannons.

We will be grateful. As for the price, as long as the person in charge is willing to sell it, even if it is a little more expensive, we will not accept it!"

Yu Xiaotian nodded and said, "This Zheng Yiguan is really abominable! This man is cruel and has no morality. Yan Siqi is his eldest brother, and this man still wants to put him to death. It can be seen that this person is indeed a scum!

In this case, I have to think about this matter carefully. After all, we are not very sufficient for these cannons, and the quantity you want is also very large. If it is given to you, I will discuss it with my brothers before making a decision. As for the price, it is easy to say, but now the price of fine iron is getting higher and higher.

As you know, Guangdong and Fujian have now cast a lot of Hongyi cannons. The court is now tense in the war in Liaodong, including the luxury chaos in Yungui and other places, which also needs a lot of cannons, so that iron prices are soaring now.

In addition, casting cannons is cumbersome. It's good to open three cannons and finally become one. Moreover, it is necessary to cast a good cannon and refine the iron materials bought to use it. The loss is also very large! This price..."

As soon as Ma Xiang heard Yu Xiaotian's words, the matter of selling them cannons has been loosened. This means that the price may be relatively high. He knows that Yu Xiaotian is starting from the ground, but at this time he can't care about the price. The key is that this thing is priceless and has no market, and he has money. I can't buy it!

So the price is not a matter for them to consider now. The key is to buy them first. Anyway, the only one who can sell them cannons now is Yu Xiaotian's family. It is normal for them to sit on the ground, not to mention that they have fought a big battle before, but now they can Selling them cannons, even if the price is higher, will give them face.

"The price is good, we all know these things! As long as the master agrees to sell us some cannons at a higher price, it is also natural!" Ma Xiang said quickly.

"Okay! In this case, I will discuss with my brothers first to see how many cannons I can squeeze out for you! ......”
