Volume 1, Chapter 9

Yang Cong soon became familiar with Yu Dayou, Tang Kekuan, Shi Wenzhai and others with this delicious food.

After everyone discussed for a while, Shi Wenzhai and Shi Lizhai agreed on the spot and asked their father to go out to help Yang Cong introduce Xu Jie. Yu Dayou even took advantage of the alcohol and kept saying that he wanted to beat Chen Wenjie.

Of course, Yang Cong knew that things were not that simple. The four major maritime merchants dared to do something that affair with Japanese pirates. Is it useful to beat them up?

It is very likely that if you beat someone up, you will be retaliated against even more wildly.

It is not so easy to avenge this revenge, and it is even more difficult to stop Chen Wenjie.

He knew very well that it would be quite troublesome to solve Chen Wenjie's problem, because the maritime business forces behind him were too terrifying.

In this case, the importance of a master like Yu Dayou is self-evident. If he can be a friend of mine, it is unlikely that the Chen family in Longxi will want his life. Moreover, the subsequent Japanese pirate rebellion will become more and more intense. If the Yang family in Hui'an did not have such a famous anti-Japanese general to protect it, it would be difficult to save their lives, let alone save their family property.

Xu Jie had to wait for news from the Shi Wenzhai brothers, and Yang Cong decided to find a way to take Yu Dayou first.

That night, he took the opportunity to send a guest to Xue Nantang to learn more about Yu Dayou's recent situation. The next day, he began to win over Yu Dayou's plan.

Yu Dayou's situation is similar to what is recorded in historical materials. His life is simply a super spoof history. It's not that he spoofed others, but that he was spoofed by fate.

Although Yu Dayou is honest and has no scheming, he is really a rare talent. He can read and read at the age of five and passes the scholar's fame at the age of fifteen. If he continues to study, it would probably be no problem for him to get a Jinshi.

Unfortunately, at this time, fate played a big joke with him. Shortly after he passed away, his father passed away!

Although his family is a hereditary family, his life is not well-off. On the contrary, because the Tunwei itself has no salary, the hereditary family has a lower salary, so his life has always been tight, especially after his father's death, his family has been struggling.

Therefore, he had to abandon his civil and military affairs, inherit the positions of hundreds of households, receive his meager salary, and participate in the martial arts ceremony to gain a good future.

Fortunately, his achievements in martial arts are much higher than those in literature. He won the first place in Fujian Wushu Academy examination at the age of 21, and at the age of 24, he even won the first place in the Wushu Academy examination in Nanzhili Wushu, becoming a veritable martial arts scholar, or Wu Jieyuan.

Unfortunately, fate always joked with him. Although he was the first in the martial arts examination, he was unable to get a higher salary because he had no money to clear the joints. What's even more strange is that because he had no money to go to the capital to participate in the martial arts examination, he didn't even have the chance to get a martial arts Jinshi!

What a destiny, a hereditary family with both civil and military affairs did not have the money to take the martial arts examination. He was even nearly thirty years old and had not gotten married because his family was too poor!

Without money, it is a big cup for Yu Dayou, but it is a big opportunity for Yang Cong now.

You have no money, just right, I have it!

Of course, you cannot directly smash Yu Dayou if you have money. If you smash it directly on him, it may backfire. Sometimes, you must also pay attention to skills when spending money.

The next morning, he took two thousand taels of private money and headed straight to Yu Dayou's hometown.

Yu Dayou's hometown is not in Chongwu, Yongning, but in Haogetou Village, Haocheng City.

Hao City is a village, affiliated to the forty-two capitals of Jinjiang County. It is located northwest of Qingyuan Mountain, about forty miles away from Quanzhou Prefecture City. Yang Cong set out in a carriage at the time of Mao. At around Chen hour, the group of three arrived in Hao City. Hou Zhitan and Peng Fu asked all the way and soon found Haogetou Village.

Nowadays, carriages are rare in the city, and when they come to the village, they are even more rare. Not to mention the value of the carriage, just a horse costs dozens of taels. There are not many families with dozens of taels in the village now, and even gentry is unlikely to spend so many carriages on buying carriages. In other words, carriages are quite rare in the village now.

The household registration control is still relatively strict at this time. Most people in the village have never left the village for fifteen miles in their lives. It is rare for them to see a carriage in their lives. Once the carriage enters the village, it will naturally attract onlookers.

Fortunately, most of the people went to work in the fields now, and the ones left were all elderly and children. Almost all children were around the carriage, so it was nothing important.

These children were very enthusiastic. When they heard that they were coming to find Yu Dayou's family, they jumped and shouted and led the carriage to the village. Soon they led the carriage to the outside of a large yard. Without Peng Fu and Hou Zhitan coming forward to shout the door, the children ran up to open the wood door and shouted happily inside.

"Grandma Yu, Aunt Yu, Aunt Yu, Aunt Yu, your guest is here."

An old woman with gray hair ran out of the house when she heard the sound, and responded while running: "Oh, here you are here, who is the distinguished guest?"

At this time, Yang Cong had already got off the carriage. He walked up and bowed: "Auntie, I am Brother Zhifu's friend. I'll come to see you today."

When Yang heard this, he said in surprise: "It turns out that he is Dayou's friend. Hurry up, please, please, please, please, please."

Yang Cong was not polite either. He directly asked Peng Fu to take the carriage into the yard, and then took Hou Zhitan and followed Yang into the house.

The Yu family’s house is not very shabby. The hall is very spacious and it looks like a wealthy family. This proves that their ancestors have also been glorious.

Unfortunately, the decoration inside is very shabby now. There is an old lobby in the middle of the lobby. There is only a small table half a person tall next to the lobby.

Yang looked at Yang Cong's clothes, then looked at the worn tables and chairs, and said a little embarrassedly: "Hurry, please sit, please sit, please sit, haven't asked the surname of the young master yet."

Yang Cong sat down calmly and bowed, "Auntie, my surname is Yang. If you don't dislike me, call me Cong'er and Qingfeng."

When Yang heard this, he couldn't help but say excitedly: "Qing, Qingfeng, your surname is Yang, which one is Quanzhou?"

At this moment, each surname has many ancestral halls. Whether people with the same surname have blood ties can be distinguished from the ancestral hall.

If you can have something to do with Yang, it is the best. Yang Cong hurriedly replied: "If you don't have the talent to Hui'an Yang family, it's the one in Hui'an County. I don't know which aunt is."

When Yang heard this, he said with some regret: "It turns out it is from Hui'an. Unfortunately, this branch of my mother's family belongs to Jinjiang."

It's a pity that this doesn't matter. However, Yang Cong has some tricks. He then took the package from Hou Zhitan and handed it to Yang. He smiled and said, "Auntie, I'm a little in a hurry this time and I don't have time to buy things. Just a little gift, please accept it."

It is normal to visit and bring some gifts these days. It is not normal to not bring any gifts. Yang did not find it strange. She reached out to take the package and said embarrassedly: "Oh, Qingfeng, it's great that you can see the old woman. What other gifts do you bring? Look at me so happy that I even forgot to make tea. You sit down first, and I'll make tea for you now."

After saying that, she turned around and walked into the house. However, the gift Yang Cong gave was really strange. Not only was it very heavy, but it was also hard. What would it be?

Yang walked into the inner room and couldn't help but unpack the package and took a look.

As soon as the things inside were exposed, she shivered in fear and almost threw the package out.
