A scheming person will choose to turn a blind eye when encountering something that may offend the entire officialdom and scholars.
Young people are different.
Young people are usually energetic. Don't you call yourself a young man in anger?
Chang Feng does not intend to make the Sihaihui case public. But he didn't plan to return to Beijing peacefully.
After worshiping Mazu at the Oyster Mirror. Changfeng told the governor of Fujian that the Japanese pirate Dongjibalang coveted the sea god pearl. Let the governor of Fujian send more warships to patrol Oyster Island and station troops on the island.
Dongjihachiro just suffered such a big loss in Yongningwei. In addition, the Ming army was prepared. There should be no attempt to attack the island and seize the beads in the short term.
The Poseidon Pearl was given to the Mazu Temple by the emperor. The governor of Fujian did not dare to neglect. Heavy troops will be deployed to strictly guard it.
Last time I suffered a loss from the Japanese pirate Hachiman's ship at sea. Chang Feng and others planned to go to Hangzhou by land. Then board the ship from Hangzhou and return to Beijing.
In mid-June, the imperial envoy drove to Putian County, Xinghua Prefecture.
Since he is an imperial envoy, he naturally has to change into casual clothes along the way, pay private visits incognito, and observe customs.
On this day, Chang Feng, Fatty Xu and Yang Tinghe changed into civilian clothes and wandered around Putian County.
Every place has its own specialty. Chang Feng discovered that Putian’s specialty was the cloth shoes sold at stalls on the streets.
There are not only cloth shoes, but also official boots.
The sky is high and the emperor is far away. It seems that no one in Putian County cares about the system where people are not allowed to wear boots. Wealthier families would buy a few pairs of boots and wear them to enjoy the pleasure of being an official.
The three of them were strolling around. Fatty Xu’s mother opened the door for him, and he was home. He stepped on a pool of hot dog excrement.
Fatty Xu shouted bad luck: "My mother's legs are broken. I didn't look at the almanac when I went out today!"
Chang Feng advised him: "The streets are full of shoe sellers. Just buy a new pair of shoes and put them on."
Everyone came to a stall.
The stall owner is in his forties and has a sinister look. She looks like a businesswoman: "Guests, look at my shoes. They are decent, strong and cheap."
"But since we are traveling in two capitals and thirteen provinces in Ming Dynasty, my shoes are the most affordable."
Chang Feng was attracted by a pair of tiger-head shoes worn by a doll: "How much do these tiger-head shoes cost?"
He plans to buy it and take it back to Beijing to wear for his son who will be born next month.
When the stall owner heard that it was a foreign accent, he quickly said: "Fifty Wen."
Good guy, he dares to ask for fifty cents for shoes that usually sell for ten cents.
Putian people also have a proper name for this way of fooling outsiders to make unintentional money--killing pigs.
Chang Feng didn't take it seriously. Such exquisite tiger-head shoes would probably cost a few dollars in large shoe stores in the capital.
Chang Feng said: "I bought it."
Fatty Xu picked out a pair of leather boots and asked, "How much do these boots cost?"
The Duke's son spends money like water in the capital. When buying something, don't ask how much wen it is, just ask how much silver it costs.
It's so easy for a stall owner to encounter a big vegetable pig. How can he not risk death for it? .
The stall owner smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you have good eyesight. These boots are modeled after the army's leather boots. They are very strong. Traveling thousands of miles will feel like walking on flat ground."
"Please give me five pieces of silver! With five pieces of silver, you can neither suffer a loss nor be cheated."
Fatty Xu took out a piece of silver from the purse hanging on his waist and threw it to the stall owner: "Here, five yuan is just a lot more."
Then he took off the pair of shoes that had been covered in dog poop, threw them on the roadside, and put on new boots.
Fatty Xu looked down and said with a smile: "Hey, don't talk about it yet. I can catch up with the official boots made by Jingcheng Wai Lian Sheng!"
At this moment, a child led a big yellow dog to the stall. He shouted to the stall owner: "Dad, I led the dog to poop three more times on this street."
Time and space seemed to have stopped.
Fatty Xu looked at the stall owner, and the stall owner looked at Fatty Xu. Neither of them said a word.
After a while, the stall owner slapped the child: "Yao Shou! Why are you so worthless! How can you let a dog poop on the street!"
Xu
The fat man said angrily: "I'm your ancestor! You must have allowed your children to lead dogs and poop all over the street. Fatty, a fastidious person like me steps in dog poop, so of course I have to buy new shoes! You are such a liar!"
After finishing speaking, Fatty Xu rolled up his arms and sleeves, preparing to teach the stall owner a lesson.
But Chang Feng pulled Fatty Xu away: "Forget it, Fatty. Everyone has a knack for making money. Come on, let's go shopping elsewhere. It is said that there are several brothels in the county!"
Fatty Xu was pulled away by Chang Feng.
Yang Tinghe commented on the side: "The world is deteriorating, and people's hearts are not as old as they used to be."
Fatty Xu said angrily: "If Master Chang hadn't stopped me, I would have rewarded him with twenty crispy ones."
Chang Feng said: "Forget it. Isn't it nice to have these leather boots? It's a good sign to get new boots and take a new path."
Fatty Xu said: "That's true. The workmanship of these boots is very decent. They are no different from the boots issued to the imperial guards by the palace cloak bureau. They are quite comfortable to wear."
Never imagined. After walking a hundred steps forward, Fatty Xu felt something was wrong with his feet.
I looked down and saw that the new boots I just bought were already threaded, looking like a giant pig with bared teeth. The big toe wrapped in white stockings saw the light of day.
Chang Feng and Yang Tinghe burst into laughter when they saw this scene.
Fatty Xu cursed: "Let's go back. I'll treat him the way he wants! Put the dog shit in the stall owner's mouth!"
Chang Feng stopped Fatty Xu and said, "Okay. Why do you have to do business with a shameless little girl? Wouldn't you lose the dignity of the Duke's Crown Prince and the Deputy Qianhu of the Imperial Guard by arguing with him?"
Yang Tinghe echoed: "A gentleman does not fight with villains."
Fatty Xu said: "If this were in Beijing, it wouldn't be over until I overthrow his stall."
Chang Feng suddenly had an idea in his mind: "Fat man, what did you just say?"
Fatty Xu said: "Put dog shit into the stall owner's mouth."
Chang Feng said: "No. What I asked was the previous sentence."
Fatty Xu thought for a while and said, "Ah, I say treat others in their own way."
Chang Feng slapped Fatty Xu hard on the shoulder: "As expected of a descendant of King Zhongshan! You helped me come up with a good idea! Let's go back to the imperial envoy's camp!"
Fatty Xu's words reminded Chang Feng.
Since officials and gentry in the southeast can use the name of Japanese pirates to engage in smuggling trade.
Then I, Chang Feng, treat others in their own way, in the name of Japanese pirates...
Everyone returned to the imperial envoy's camp.
Chang Feng found Qian Ning immediately.
He told Qian Ning: "Go to Yongning Guard and run an errand for me."
"After the Battle of Yongning, I saw You Tianjue's men, Pao Ze, stripping off all the clothes from the Japanese pirates' corpses when they were cleaning the battlefield."
"You Tianjue said that those Japanese clothes are kept to ignite fires in winter. Go to Yongning Guard and ask You Tianjue for three hundred sets of Japanese clothes."
Qian Ning was a little surprised: "Master Chang, what do you want the clothes worn by animals to do? How unlucky!"
Chang Feng patiently taught Qian Ning: "You have just joined the guard. You may not know the rules of the Jinyi Guard very well."
"The first rule of Jinyiwei - the superior's order is as big as the sky. And when the superior gives the order, the subordinates cannot ask why! Just do what I said in the snapshot!"
Qian Ning handed over his hand and said, "Yes. I will rush to Yongning immediately."
