Chapter 1768 Extra Story: Ten Wen Qian Husband-in-Law (48)
"It's nothing but brute force." The man left a sentence, and Shi Shi ran away.
"Just wait, one day I will kill you with my strength!"
His answer was a half-empty sneer.
Nanling Shizi was beaten up by his father, and he was powerless to fight back. The news was sent back from the pier to the capital in an instant, causing the capital to become an uproar again.
Croton walked around the gate of the city, feeling that it would be shameless to go back like this, so he stood at the pier and waited for the next boat, boarding the boat to chase after his wife.
...
In the autumn of Emperor Huijing's twentieth year, Xinghua Village, the peach forest behind the Liu family compound.
A group of children in their teens, boys and girls sat around under the fragrant peach tree, eating peaches while listening to the story told by the boy sitting in the middle.
"Brother Croton, did you chase my sister-in-law back after two years on the boat?"
"That's not true! I'm telling you from my own experience that there is no one in this world who is more shady than the King of Nanling, who made his son miserable! You can go out and look for it, but whoever can find such a true son will be considered a loser." !” Since being kicked into the ground by his father two years ago, Croton has never let go of any chance to discredit his father.
Qian Zhuang threw a fruit stone at him, "You got it and sold it badly. Didn't Aunt Sheng walk around all over the past two years in order to find herbal medicine to treat your mother-in-law? When it came to your mouth, it turned out that she deliberately led you around. , Turn around and Aunt Sheng heard your ears, so don't try to protect your ears."
"Little jar, if you are a brother, keep it a secret."
"If you can keep it, it's not a secret. With so many people present, I'm the only one who heard what you said?"
Croton looked around, everyone nodded and sealed their mouths.
"Cousin, let's talk about your being a pirate? The pirates have entered the capital of Dongyue, and the emperor of Dongyue didn't bother you?" Wandou Liu Chengzhou was more interested in this, blinking like a little girl, Shiny.
"Why are you bothering me? Fortunately, I have controlled the pirates. If the imperial court is not allowed to send troops to suppress them, it will cost the people and waste money. If the grass cannot be eradicated, the merchants in the past will be more dangerous in the future, and they may be killed by the remnants of the pirates. Make a contribution."
"You managed the pirates and didn't stop them from robbing..."
"Can this be the same? In the past, more than half of their belongings were robbed when they were robbed. Now, as long as the business traveler voluntarily pays 10% of the toll, the voyage will be safe and sound. They have made money!"
At the beginning, every island in the sea area was occupied by pirates, belonging to different camps. In addition to robbing passing business travelers, pirates also frequently killed each other because of territorial problems, and the scale of each market had a tendency to increase year after year.
He tidied up the area, controlled the growth of pirates, established rules and order, and everyone ate from the same pot, what's the point?
As for completely eradicating the pirates, that is unrealistic. One nest is wiped out today, and a new one will come tomorrow. When will the imperial court suppress bandits every year? Toil the people and waste money, the court is struggling, the people are worried, and the bandits will not be at peace, which will bring the society to rest.
Now this is how you and I are, and it is best to live in peace.
"Hiding here again to eat peaches. Grandma Liu said it's not good to eat too many peaches at once, have you all forgotten?" The girl's soft voice sounded from the courtyard wall, and everyone immediately hid the peaches in their hands with guilt.
Qianzhuang reacted the most violently, he kicked all the peach pits at his feet and kicked them in front of Croton, his side was clean, "Little aunt, they ate them all, but I didn't."
Croton gritted his teeth, "Fuck! How dare you cheat your brother!" After saying that, he rushed to the bank.
I missed it.
The boy has already run to his little aunt.
