Chapter 97 The Gift of Strong: Spanish Flies--
Because the most important point is that the Chinese compatriots who are about to become the people of Master Liang's territory have been grinded away by hundreds of years of suffering. With those small islands and those barbaric and ignorant indigenous people who only know how to drink blood.
Liang Pengfei will naturally let his hands fight, conquer, explore, and use iron and blood exercises to help those compatriots who are weak and unresistant to reshape their backbone.
After, he will become part of the armed forces that trampled on the Qing Dynasty and overthrew the rotten dynasty.
"Yes, Governor Marcelo, I heard that you have a wonderful specialty in Spain." Liang Pengfei stepped forward and hooked Governor Marcelo's shoulder, as intimate as a brother in a pair of trousers.
This sudden enthusiasm scared Governor Marcelo so much that his face was as white as the lime that whitewashed the building. Mr. Liang, what else do you want? I have never objected to your request.
"Don't be afraid, dear Governor, now I'm asking you a private matter." Liang Pengfei squeezed his eyes obscenely and whispered in Governor Marcelo's ear.
When Governor Marcelo heard Liang Pengfei's request, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, showing a smile that only a man could understand. He patted his chest and said, "Mr. Liang, don't worry, this kind of thing does work. Hey hey, I have a deep understanding of it. Well, maybe I can't get anything else. But this kind of thing, hey hey, I still have some here. I don't know how much you need?
Liang Pengfei touched his chin and turned his eyes: "A person like you, Mr. Governor, I'm embarrassed to take it if you give me more things, but if you give less things, you will be embarrassed to take action. That's it. Give me this number." Liang Pengfei stretched out five greedy fingers at Governor Marcelo.
"Five copies?" Governor Marcelo looked up at Liang Pengfei doubtfully, thinking that the boy was easy to pass. Liang Pengfei almost spit on his face. Five copies?! You really think I'm a beggar. I'm five pounds, do you understand?
"Five pounds of Spanish flies? My God!" Governor Marcelo's eyes stared into a polygon and looked at Liang Pengfei in disbelief, as if he had seen a madman who used ** as sugar to sacrifice his teeth.
The Spanish officials next towho were drafting the treaty heard Governor Marcelo's scream and almost went crazy. The tip of the pen poked a deep hole in the solid mahogany table.
"You're a little hairy. You have to keep a low profile for this kind of thing. You go on. I said, Mr. Ma, I'm taking it as a gift. If it weren't for your colony, not in Spain, maybe I'd want fifty pounds instead of five pounds." Liang Pengfei, who opened his mouth, said confidently.
Governor Marcelo can't laugh or cry: "Mr. Liang, this thing only needs a dozen orchids at a time, that is, less than one sixteenth of an ounce. The gift you gave is really too..."
"You don't know that I have too many friends, so it takes at least five pounds to meet my requirements. I have to ask you for this. Remember, you must give the goods to me within three days, otherwise, you will look down on me as a friend. Liang Pengfei's face became gloomy again in an instant.
Governor Marcelo wiped the sweat on his forehead, and his head clicked like a chicken pecking rice: "It must be, no matter what, even if I look through the residences of all the Spaniards, I will find a way to make up the amount you want for you. Is that okay?"
"Well, I like to hear this. Don't worry, if my friends think this thing is easy to use, then I will... You don't have to look so ugly. I mean, at that time, maybe we can do this thing as a kind of business. You know, some men, even if they are indebious. If the family is bankrupt, they will be willing to buy it..." Liang Pengfei's appearance at this moment is so bad that his face is full of deceived annihilars.
Governor Marcelo nodded with a perfunctory smile, but he really didn't expect that after that, he really became a business partner with Master Liang, and...--------------------
"Young master, do you mean that these islands are all from our Lao Liang's house?" The stewards of Lu sat in the chair in the lobby and stared at the map hanging on the wall. On the top, the central islands of Luzon and Mindanao were circled by thick red lines, which looked so eye-catching.
The cigarette buttocks in his hand were almost burned to his fingers and he didn't notice it. Monk Chen next to him quickly pulled the cigarette buttocks out of his fingers and extinguished them.
"Yes, master, these are all earned by the young master. Look at this Sanchao Island (Sama Island), which is more than 320 miles long from north to south and more than 180 miles wide from east to west, which is enough to be worth dozens of times our Crab King Island. No, I'm afraid it's more than a hundred times more." Monk Chen thoughtfully gave another cigarette to the soneer Lu and explained to the soneer Lu with a proud smile.
"How many people will have to live in full?" The sonet Lu chattered, and his words were a little unclear. His eyes were straight, as if he wanted to dig out two holes in the map before he stopped. His pupils were so big that he picked up a piece of paper to wipe his buttocks. As a result, he found that it was an old farmer who had won five million lottery.
Liang Pengfei looked at the elder of the same age as his father with a smile. Seeing his expression, Liang Pengfei could also imagine that if Liang's official knew the news, he would not be much better than Lu's steward.
After the manager Lu came to his senses, he reached out and rubbed the corners of his eyes, and he was moved from other places: "I didn't expect that our old Liang family could also produce heroes like the young master. If the master knew the news, I don't know what it would be like to be happy."
"Okay, Uncle Lu, don't sigh. Drink some tea to moisten your throat. These days, it's really hard for you to guard the ship's dock alone and let those guys follow the rules." Liang Pengfei pushed a cup of fragrant tea to the manager Lu and smiled.
"Young master, don't say such a thing. These are what the old slaves should do. This is their duty." The governor Lu took over the fragrant tea and drank it all. He exhaled comfortably. His words were still rigid. Liang Pengfei knew that the governor Lu had such a temper, so he smiled and interrupted the topic: "Uncle Lu, I'm going to leave for the crab king island after three or five days. I will return to Guangzhou before the end of the month, so that I can attend General Fu's birthday banquet. However, there are still a lot of things here, and it can't be done without good people.
"We should not only appease our compatriots who are willing to defect to us, but also prepare all kinds of things for their relocation. Well, we should deal with those Spaniards. Before I leave, I will try my best to pave the way. What's more, we have to mobilize a group of people to train first, at least let them know how to use the weapons in their hands to fight against violence.
Liang Pengfei touched his forehead and told a lot of things, and finally said, "So, I won't take all the people away. I'm going to leave a thousand people for you, and Xingba will also stay with you. There are also five warships and ten fast ships here."
The sonet Lu couldn't help interrupting, "Young master, a thousand people is enough, but do you have more boats left?"
"Not much." Liang Pengfei shook his head and smiled and said, "There are more than 30,000 of us in Manila City, and most of them make a living from fishing and are familiar with ships. I'm going to recruit 2,000 sailors among these people. You can train them fiercely. You can use cannons on board and knives and guns when you get off the boat. In addition, I checked that we seized what we captured, plus those who were later handed over after the surrender of Spanish soldiers, there were 37 new and old guns, most of which were six-pound and eight-pound cannons. This kind of small cannon is very suitable for practice. There are only more than 700 new and old guns. I will give you 1,500 more to you every month in the future. From Crab King Island, make up for another 200 muskets here to replenish the consumption, and then train the new army.
"Young master, don't worry, the old slave will definitely do this properly." Hearing that Liang Pengfei entrusted him with such a heavy responsibility, the steward Lu was also full of excitement and stood up and responded to Liang Pengfei awe-inspiringly.
--------------------
"With Uncle Lu, you stay here to control the overall situation, I can rest assured. Although Xingba is bold and careful, he may be able to stand alone in the future, but he still can't do it now. I also trouble Uncle Lu to pick up this boy. In the future, our old Liang family will grow its foundation, and it will also be of great use. Liang Pengfei lowered his voice and said in a low voice.
Next to, Zhang Xingba opened his mouth and couldn't say a word for a long time. A pair of cow's eyes bulged red. Young master, don't worry, the little one will not humiliate you.
"It's your business to lose face or not. Don't talk nonsense to me, as long as you don't lose the face of our Yanhuang ancestors." Although Liang Pengfei is younger than Zhang Xingba, he seems to be rude to teach Zhang Xingba a lesson. However, there is a strong sense of concern and love hidden in this rudeness. How can Zhang Xingba, the person who made Liang Pengfei choose to stay to assist the steward Lu, not understand such a truth?
Although the white scholar standing behind Liang Pengfei can't see anything on the surface, he is actually full of acid in his heart. Liang Pengfei smelled a sour taste in front of him.
"Book student!" Liang Pengfei talked about a cigar and smiled. Bai Shusheng answered and quickly stepped forward to help Liang Pengfei light the cigar. He looked at Liang Pengfei with a look on his face of expectation, and his eyes were very bright. If you have something to do, just tell me, and the little knife mountain and sea of fire will not hesitate.
"You are in a hurry. After that, you have to kick you if you don't want to go. Now that Uncle Lu and Xingba take care of the affairs here, I am very relieved. If I leave you here again, it will be superfluous. So you stay with me honestly first, and in the future, I will naturally send you out to experience. Do you understand? " Liang Pengfei pulled out a cigar from his arms and threw it to Bai Shusheng, Wen Yan explained.
