Chapter 156

(Don't compare Chou Yao Er to the Blood Guanyin in the previous book. She is super awesome, so I changed her nickname to Demon Rakshasa)

At this time, Xu Qianqian was giving it her all.

That weak, that seductive, her entire body seemed to have no bones, and her big watery eyes looked like they were about to cry.

Even when facing Zhang Jin, she did not put in so much effort.

Especially after kowtowing, her buttocks were raised high, coupled with her extremely slender waist, that scene, you can imagine.

If it was the scumbag Shen Lang, he would have already taken out a pair of scissors and started cutting from the middle.

However …

Demon Rakshasa Chou Yao Er was expressionless, her face cold.

"I, I don't like women."

Xu Qianqian was shocked.

Is that true?

Aren't people saying that you like women?

You don't like women? Then … then what should I do?

"But I've heard about you." Chou Yao Er said, "I didn't think you would still be alive."

Xu Qianqian immediately knelt down and hugged Chou Yao Er's leg, saying, "General, I really have nowhere to go. There is no place for me in this world. Please save me."

These two legs are really long, really straight, the shape of the legs is really perfect, it feels really good to the touch.

I didn't think that women's legs could be so elastic, I'm so jealous.

Demon Rakshasa Chou Yao Er said, "I can take you in, and you can be with other pitiful women."

She had no idea how many women she had saved.

Every time she went to kill pirates, she would save a large number of pitiful women.

Now, these women were all under her protection, either managing the accounts, cooking, embroidering, or cleaning.

A few years ago, she had picked out a large group of young girls to train in martial arts. Now, a group of girls had already grown up and became her personal guards.

"But … I want to stay by General's side, only then will I feel safe." Xu Qianqian said tenderly.

She looked like a typical tea whore.

But this also depended on the person. Xu Qianqian's tea whore look was not annoying.

Chou Yao 'er was extremely domineering. No matter who she faced, she would crush them.

Therefore, she did not like Zhang Chunhua's condescending demeanor as a strategist at all.

But in the face of Xu Qianqian's pitiful and delicate appearance, she didn't want to crush her.

"What can you do?" Chou Yao 'er asked. "Can you wash clothes and cook?"

Xu Qianqian said, "I can learn."

That meant it wouldn't happen.

Demon Rakshasa Chou Yao 'er said, "Then do you know how to sew clothes?"

Xu Qianqian said weakly, "I … I can also learn."

Of course not.

Devil Rakshasa frowned and said, "Then you should know how to serve tea and pour water, right?"

Xu Qianqian was so ashamed that her voice was almost inaudible. "I … I can learn it."

So what you said earlier about making the bed, doing the laundry, and cooking were all fake. The only thing that was real was that you offered to sleep with me.

Demon Rakshasa Chou Yao 'er said coldly, "Then what can you do?"

Xu Qianqian said, "I can take care of the accounts."

Chou Yao 'er said, "I only care about killing and stealing. I don't have any accounts."

Ah?

You have so many people under you, and every time you steal an astronomical amount of things, you don't have any accounts?

Of course not!

Every time Chou Yao 'er stole something, she would directly give it to her father.

She had no interest in any property.

She was only interested in fighting, killing, and martial arts.

Xu Qianqian said, "Then I can write poems."

"Not interested."

Xu Qianqian's scalp went numb. She found that she had become trash.

"You don't know this, you don't know that, so why are you staying by my side?" Demon Rakshasa Chou Yao 'er said, "Send you to sweep the floor."

Then, she waved her hand.

Two female warriors came forward and dragged Xu Qianqian out.

There was no room for resistance at all.

Chou Yao 'er was completely unmoved, completely unmoved by anything she said.

Xu Qianqian was brought to a room, where she took off her clothes and put on some light cotton clothing.

Then, a broom was stuffed into her hands.

Just like that, she became a glorious female sweeper in Chou Yao 'er's castle.

This was very different from what she had imagined!

I, I'm here to be a vixen, not a sweeper.

She looked up.

In a small courtyard of less than 100 square meters, there were a dozen women sweeping the floor.

Every one of them was beautiful and graceful.

At this time, Xu Qianqian realized that Chou Yao 'er was the most extravagant person in the world.

Inside her castle, there were hundreds of beautiful women sweeping the floor.

She could almost rival the Monarch.

However, this Demon Rakshasa was really hard to serve.

To become her confidant, to become someone she couldn't live without, was too difficult.

Xu Qianqian waved the broom and swept the floor.

But …

The floor was so clean as if it had been licked, how could there be anything to sweep?

Xu Qianqian wanted to cry but no tears came out.

… … …

The Raging Tide City Lord's residence!

This was a tortoise shell!

This huge castle was even sturdier than Xuan Wu Mansion.

The entire castle did not have any sense of beauty, it was all made of sturdy black stone.

There were no pavilions, no carved railings or jade walls.

There were only high walls, ramparts, and watchtowers.

The castle walls were three to four meters thick and more than ten meters tall.

The doorway was seven to eight meters deep.

This castle was definitely easy to defend and hard to attack.

As long as there were a thousand people defending, even ten thousand people would not be able to break through.

Chou Tian Wei used eleven years to build this sturdy castle, using tens of thousands of people.

To build this castle, who knew how many slaves died.

That's right, slaves.

The Great Yan Dynasty had already decreed that no vassal states were allowed to trade slaves.

But in Raging Tide City, anything could be bought.

One of the biggest trades was slaves.

Chou Tian Wei was also very tall, more than 1.9 meters.

He was extremely handsome!

He did not look like a pirate at all.

But his handsomeness was not very attractive to women, because his nose was too long.

Some people said that long noses were good, and my nose was long.

But there was a limit to any length, and it was not good to exceed this limit. For example, if you let it hang down to your knees, you might not be able to get a wife.

And Chou Tian Wei's nose exceeded this limit, and it was especially curved.

So it made his handsome face look very strange, and it made people feel afraid at a glance.

And his eyes!

They were especially long and narrow, and slightly upward.

If it was a woman's eyes, it would be especially beautiful.

But this kind of eyes on a man, it seemed very contradictory and abrupt.

In short, this was an extremely handsome person, but anyone who looked at him would feel fear in their heart, and not dare to approach him at all.

Natural abnormalities referred to this kind of person.

He was currently receiving a guest, Jin Hai Count Tang Lun.

Even though they had met many times, Tang Lun still instinctively resisted when facing Chou Tian Wei.

The face in front of him was really uncomfortable to look at.

"You want to marry me?" Chou Tian Wei said: "You are a dignified noble, and you want to marry me, a pirate?"

Jin Hai Count Tang Lun said: "You are no longer a pirate, you are the Lord of Fury Tide City, the ruler of the sea order. The Third Prince and His Highness the Crown Prince are both trying to win you over. As long as you are willing, you will be the future Marquis of Fury Tide. "

This was indeed the condition of the Crown Prince and the Third Prince.

As long as Chou Tian Wei was willing to rely on them, after ascending the throne in the future, Chou Tian Wei would be conferred the title of Marquis of Fury Tide.

Nowadays, there were two kinds of titles in the countries.

One was the old nobility, passed down for hundreds of years.

This kind of title was extremely rare, a carrot had a pit, and basically couldn't be moved for a hundred years.

The other kind of nobility was the new nobility, this kind of title was more superficial.

For example, if Zhang Chong really succeeded this time, then he would also be conferred the title of Count.

In the future, when he entered the Imperial Cabinet and became the Prime Minister, his title could be raised by half a rank. When he retired, the Monarch would also confer him the title of Marquis.

Just like the former Minister Suo Xuan, who was a Marquis.

But this kind of title was only a reward of reputation, there was no land, only a symbolic salary, and it decreased with each generation.

So until now, although Wu An Count, Xuanwu Count, Jin Hai Count, and Dong Jiang Count, these old nobles were only Count, in their hearts they despised the new nobility.

This was like the relationship between a shareholder and a worker in a company.

Even if you become a CE0, you are still just a worker.

Qiu Tianwei said: "You want my son to marry your daughter?"

Jin Hai Count said: "No, I want my son to marry your daughter."

Qiu Tianwei said: "If it is your daughter marrying my son, then I can still decide. But my daughter's marriage, I can't decide. "

Jin Hai Count Tang Lun said: "Marquis Fury Tide must be joking, which girl's marriage is not decided by their parents?"

Really shameless, and now he was calling Marquis Fury Tide.

Qiu Tianwei said: "My daughter is different from other girls."

Jin Hai Count Tang Lun said: "I am willing to use 50% of Jinshan Island as a betrothal gift."

Qiu Tianwei said: "But your Jinshan Island has already been lost to the Kim family."

Tang Lun sneered: "That is only a paper contract, if I don't hand over the island, what can Jin Zhuo do?"

Qiu Tianwei said: "You want me to pull chestnuts out of the fire for you."

Tang Lun said: "Marquis Fury Tide, isn't this a once in a lifetime opportunity for you? You have many troops and are invincible on the sea, but you can't touch the land at all. "

This was true.

The State of Yue, State of Wu, and Qiu Tianwei all had a tacit understanding.

I don't care if you, Qiu Tianwei, dominate the sea, but you can't touch the land.

Otherwise, even if we don't beat you, we will completely ban you.

If we don't do any business with you, your Fury Tide City will be blind.

Qiu Tianwei had always maintained this line.

Jinshan Island was coveted, and so was Wangya Island.

Qiu Tianwei's fleet was sharp, with twenty to thirty thousand troops, he could easily seize the two islands.

But he always maintained restraint, only asking for protection fees, not daring to seize the islands.

Tang Lun Count said: "But now you can rightfully land. Of course, Jinshan Island is still not land, but it is already an extension of the land. The Monarch will definitely acquiesce, because he would rather Jinshan Island fall into your hands than fall into the hands of the Kim family. "

Qiu Tianwei still did not speak.

Tang Lun Count said: "Today you took Jinshan Island, tomorrow you can also take Wangya Island."

Qiu Tianwei still did not speak.

Tang Lun Count said: "Although Fury Tide City is good, it is still an isolated place in the sea, and the land is our root. Only by taking root on the land can the Qiu family become a true aristocrat for a hundred years, or even a thousand years. "

Qiu Tianwei was overjoyed: "How many troops do I need to send to Jinshan Island?"

Finally, the Pirate King's mouth moved. It seemed that he was very tempted, and even determined to get it.

Tang Lun Count said: "Five thousand, so that we can resist Count Jin Zhuo's army."

Qiu Tianwei said: "What about the miners and smelters in the mines?"

Tang Lun said: "My family will still pay, and all the mining and production will also be handed over to my family."

The Count of Jin Hai Tang Lun's plan was really good.

Jinshan Island was still mining, and on the surface they were willing to hand it over to the Kim family, but they cried out to the outside world.

Not good, Jinshan Island was taken by the Pirate King Qiu Tianwei.

Then the Qiu family and the Tang family would split the profits of Jinshan Island.

But this was not in line with the instructions of Zhang Chong.

Zhang Chong wanted Tang Lun to hand over Jinshan Island to the Kim family first, and wait until the Kim family invested a lot of manpower and resources in Jinshan Island, then let Qiu Tianwei send troops to take it, so that the Kim family would bleed.

But Tang Lun was not willing.

If they fought like this, how long would the mining of Jinshan Island be delayed, at least a year and a half? How much would the Tang family lose?

So he took the initiative to negotiate with Qiu Tianwei.

If Zhang Chong knew, he would probably scold him for being an idiot!

But Tang Lun was not stupid, just greedy.

"I want 70%." Qiu Tianwei said bluntly.

Tang Lun Count's expression changed: "Marquis Nu Chao, the miners and smelters are all paid by my family. You are just sending troops to guard Jinshan Island and reap the benefits. "

Qiu Tianwei said: "I want 70%!"

Tang Lun Count said: "Marquis Nu Chao, we can't cooperate like this."

Qiu Tianwei said lightly: "Don't worry, you are going to hand Jinshan Island over to the Kim family soon. At worst, I will send troops to take it back, and then I will get everything. If we cooperate directly, we can save this battle, so I will give you 30%. As for absenteeism, I have many slaves in Nu Chao City. You have many smelters, I will hire them when the time comes. "

The Count of Jin Hai Tang Lun's heart was bleeding.

But now he was the fish on the chopping block, what could he do?

"Fine, 70% it is, sign the contract." Tang Lun said while gritting his teeth.

Qiu Tianwei said: "Sign what contract? What is the use of that? "

Eh!

That's true.

If you have the strength, a verbal promise is like gold.

If you don't have the strength, a signed contract is too hard to wipe your ass.

Tang Lun Count said: "Then our two families will unite by marriage?"

Qiu Tianwei said: "I will try! Which son are you going to let marry my daughter? "

Tang Lun Count said: "Of course it will be Prince Tang Yun."

Qiu Tianwei said: "Isn't he already engaged?"

Tang Lun said: "He can be without."

Qiu Tianwei said: "The world has really fallen, even you old nobles don't follow the rules."

Tang Lun thought: Fuck your mother.

Qiu Tianwei said: "Men, gather five thousand troops and prepare to go to Jinshan Island and build a fortress on it."

Tang Lun was shocked, so fast? So swift and decisive?

Qiu Tianwei said: "As for the marriage between our two families, I can only say that I will try my best. My daughter is different from all the women in the world."

… … …

The Sword King, Li Qianqiu, escorted Shen Lang into Nujiang County, and they would arrive at Xuanwu City the next day.

Shen Lang was used to living like a prince, and he really didn't want to spend the night in the open.

Thus, he directly stayed at the Nujiang resting point.

"I, Shen Lang, Xuan Wu Mansion's son-in-law, give me the best room. I can't have anyone in this building."

Shen Lang said arrogantly to the officials in the resting point.

If the Sword King, Li Qianqiu, was by his side, Shen Lang wouldn't have dared to be so arrogant, let alone announce his name.

What if someone hears Shen Lang's name and comes to kill me?

But with the Sword King around, it can't be any safer.

The Sword King's Chicken Slaying Swordsmanship is too awesome.

Li Qianqiu: There's no such swordsmanship.

Given Shen Lang's status, he didn't have the qualifications to stay in the resting point, let alone the best courtyard.

However, the deputy hurriedly agreed.

Even though I'm just a ninth-ranked official, I'm very clear about who I can offend and who I can't.

Thus, Shen Lang stayed in the best courtyard in the Nujiang resting point.

However, no one came to curry favor with him.

We can't afford to offend you, Shen Lang, but your Xuan Wu Mansion is about to be finished. Furthermore, you're our Zhang Chong's sworn enemy, so we naturally can't curry favor with you.

Damn it, there are so many shrewd people in the bureaucracy!

Shen Lang stayed in the luxurious courtyard.

However, the Sword King, Li Qianqiu, wasn't willing to stay there. He said he wanted to sleep in the carriage.

Shen Lang asked, "Why? Isn't the suite in the resting point very comfortable? "

Li Qianqiu replied, "The atmosphere of the bureaucracy is too strong. I feel guilty staying there and can't sleep well."

Ah!

Shen Lang's interest in martial arts immediately faded to the extreme.

Living off a woman was still the best. One could rely on a great aristocrat to enjoy high status and wealth.

So what if one became a grandmaster in martial arts?

… …

Shen Lang lay comfortably on the large bed.

Although the Nujiang resting point was only a resting point for a prefecture, the most luxurious suite was still very impressive. It wasn't inferior to a five-star hotel at all.

The bed was the best, the blankets were the best, and even the stools were mahogany.

It was even more luxurious than the one in the Xuan Wu Mansion.

After all, this suite was specially reserved for high-ranking officials. Even Governor Zhu Jung had stayed in it before.

Fortunately, there weren't any high-ranking officials today. Otherwise, it would be impossible for Shen Lang to stay here.

With the Sword King as his bodyguard, Shen Lang was able to sleep very well.

…

However!

Shen Lang had only slept for less than two hours when he was woken up.

Then, someone actually wanted to chase him out.

That's right!

They wanted to chase him out.

What a great humiliation!

A group of rich and powerful nobles entered the Nujiang resting point.

There were two placards: the Zhong Clan and the Third Prince.

"Which Tom, Dick, and Harry are staying in the resting point? What does Zhang Chong do? "

"Who is staying in the best courtyard?"

Shen Lang heard a woman's voice.

He had never seen such a bossy, domineering and arrogant woman before.

"What? Shen Lang, a small son-in-law, dares to stay in the best suite of the resting point? "

"I, Xue Li, don't even care about the Xuan Wu Mansion, let alone a small son-in-law. He's just a Tom, Dick, and a lowly peasant. After becoming the son-in-law of the Kim family, he really thinks of himself as a master. He's just like a dog! "

Yes, this woman was Xue Li, who had just gone to the Xuan Wu Mansion to break off the engagement.

Although she entered the Xuan Wu Mansion alone, there were hundreds of cavalries protecting her. The lineup was much more luxurious than that of Shen Lang.

Then, Xue Li's voice came from outside.

"Someone, go in and chase Shen Lang out. No, go and throw him out. "

Enemies were bound to meet on a narrow road!

Shen Lang's mouth revealed a trace of a hideous smile.

If I don't teach you an unforgettable lesson today, you'll f * ck me.

…
