Chapter 165 Spurs (continued)
That year, the Maritime Trade Department Daxing Hai Trade Company, regardless of its background, recruited talents, and the down-and-out scholar Ma Xinyi responded to the recruitment. Then he met the boat owner Cao Erhu and his brother-in-law Zhang Wenxiang.
Cao Erhu was a native of Qingzhou and relied on the sea for generations. He had a great family and had a great career. However, when it was introduced to Cao Erhu, he only had a little thin field and a dilapidated manor. He relied on a sea trade business to make a living. He had only two broken ships and several weak sailors.
Zhang Wenxiang was born in a poor family and was rescued by Cao Erhu. From then on, he was loyal and died for him.
Ma Xinyi, who was able to write and calculate, soon became Cao Erhu's think tank. Under his guidance, Cao Erhu's sea trade was booming.
The three of them worked together to make the sea trade colorful. Seeing that they were in love, the three of them followed the story of Liu Xianzhu of Shu Han, went to Taoyuan to join forces, and became brothers of different surnames. According to age, Ma Xinyi was the eldest, Cao Erhu was the second, and Zhang Wenxiang was the last.
Brothers worked together and their ability to cut off gold, Cao Erhu's fleet grew larger and larger, becoming a famous "Cao Shipkeeper" under the name of the Maritime Manufacturing Corporation.
Seeing this, the audience became interested in these three brothers because this plot is about sea trade, and the sea is very mysterious to many people.
It is said that the sea trade risks are high, but they are huge profits, so there are rumors that there are many desperate people going out to sea and get rich after returning from a lifetime of death. Such rumors are a good topic for ordinary people.
In the play, three sworn brothers do maritime trade, went to Danluo, Baekje, Japan, Ryukyu, and countless unknown islands on the ocean, and traded with island barbarians on the island.
The audience enjoyed the various exotic styles and how the three brothers turned bad luck in the face of various dangers.
On the stage, the plot continues. Cao Erhu's wife Jiang, who is in charge of housework and account books, often deals with Ma Xinyi, who is in charge of the fleet's revenue and expenditure. After a while, he actually becomes a traitor.
The third brother Zhang Wenxiang accidentally learned that the two were in love. In order to protect their brotherhood, he found his loyal brother Ma Xinyi privately and begged the other party to stop the horse.
Unexpectedly, he became a sworn elder brother without any mercy. Ma Xinyi was afraid that the love would be known to others, and wanted to occupy the fleet and Jiang family, so he colluded with the pirates and set up a case to let Cao Erhu and Zhang Wenxiang, who were escorting the ship to sea, died.
Ma Xinyi took over the fleet and became the "master owner". In order to avoid people's eyes, he moved to Nanyang and joined the Nanyang Trading Company to start a trading of incense and medicine.
Three years later, Ma Xinyi became a large ship owner under the name of Nanyang Trading Company, with a wealth of billions of yuan. When Jiang finished mourning for his deceased husband Cao Erhu, he used methods to bring Jiang, who was kept in the dark, to Nanyang and marry him.
The audience was unhappy when the play was performed here: Ma Xinyi succeeded in his plan, and God was fascinated. What's going on!
Many people stood up in anger, clenched their fists, stared at the laughing "Ma Xinyi" on the stage, hoping to pick up the Hu bed and smash it up.
He framed his brother and seized his family property. He did not say that the fleet would take the waning people for himself. What a bullshit plot, if you don’t give me an explanation, I will give you an explanation!
Many people think so, Dou Jiande, who has always been attracted by the plot, is calm on his face, but he can't help but clench his fists tightly.
He had already been deeply involved in the play, thinking that Ma Xinyi, a bird man, should be cut into pieces. Unfortunately, he is now having a happy life in Nanyang and has become the owner of the Nanyang Trading Company. The company is naturally reasonable, but without real evidence, no one can do anything about the villain Ma Xinyi.
On the stage, the actor who played "Ma Xinyi" was smirking. Off the stage, a group of audiences were furious. At this moment, Zhang Wenxiang, who had been killed, suddenly "appeared".
It turned out that Zhang Wenxiang fought with the pirates when he was attacked that day. He was injured several times and fell into the sea. He escaped by chance. He went through a lot of hardships before returning to the Central Plains, but found that the objects were made of man.
Later, he accidentally discovered the group of pirates and learned that his righteous brother Ma Xinyi was the commander behind the scenes. He swears in front of Cao Erhu's tomb that he would kill the little man Ma Xinyi to take revenge.
"Zhang Wenxiang" "crying blood and making a vow" on the stage. The tragic soundtrack sounded, and the audience members in the audience were red and gasping for breath. They had to see how "Zhang Wenxiang" wanted to take revenge.
The plot continues. Zhang Wenxiang searched for several years before he found out that Ma Xinyi had established a home in Nanyang Coconut City. Now he still brought Jiang's family to stay and fly together.
After going through hardships, Zhang Wenxiang came to Coconut City and sneaked into Zhang's mansion to assassinate, but Ma Xinyi escaped by chance.
Ma Xinyi was rich and powerful in Coconut City, and this place was not under the jurisdiction of the dynasty and had another set of rules. Therefore, Zhang Wenxiang, who was alone, became the target of public criticism because of his crime, and was surrounded and intercepted by Ma Xinyi's minions.
Zhang Wenxiang was completely covered in a state of disguise and hid in Coconut City for three days. He was at a loss. His right hand was cut off and dragged to Ma Xinyi.
Because of his crime, his crime was conclusive and he refused to tell the reason, he was regarded as a pirate seeking revenge and wanted to behead him on the spot.
Seeing that the great revenge could no longer be avenged, Zhang Wenxiang was anxious and remembered the different rules of Coconut City. He found that he was in a specific area of the city at this time, so he asked Ma Xinyi for a duel in public.
A man with broken hands proposed a duel. If the famous ship owner Ma Xinyi did not accept it, he would have no face to gain a foothold in Nanyang in the future and his subordinates would not accept it, so he accepted it happily.
Seeing this, the audience, who were already attracted by the plot, became interested in the so-called "South-Sea Duel". This tone is very suitable for everyone's appetite. Since ancient times, the place of Yan and Zhao has been strong in martial arts. Many people have made grudges and do not want to affect others. The parties involved often make a break by private fights.
This practice has always been banned by the government, but when the audience "knows" that Nanyang actually had such rules, they couldn't help but feel excited, and their hearts became more and more concerned about how loyal Zhang Wenxiang took revenge.
The plot continues. Zhang Wenxiang, who had broken his right hand, held a knife in his left hand, but was still sharp. It turns out that in the past few years, he has practiced his left hand as flexible as his right hand. He cut Ma Xinyi to the ground in just a few strokes.
Ma Xinyi has many minions, but he can only watch it because the rules of duel are like this, and other bystanders will not intervene in the duel. Anyone who interferes with the duel and breaks the rules of Coconut City will be in trouble.
Seeing that the revenge was about to avenge, Zhang Wenxiang lost too much blood and was exhausted. Ma Xinyi, who was wearing protective armor to protect the key points, successfully counterattacked and killed with one knife.
The plot ended here, and the audience was in an uproar. The audience was in a state of rebellion. They picked up Hu bed and rushed to the stage, beating the villain who was successful and laughing arrogantly.
Thanks to the studio's efforts to intercept the angered audience, the actor who played Ma Xinyi was smashed to the point of being smashed. Fortunately, the performance was not bad, so the performance was carried out.
Ma Xinyi, who killed Zhang Wenxiang openly, accepted everyone's cheers and returned to the mansion proudly, but saw Jiang's dressing up, and couldn't help but feel dry. He drank the iced wolf-eyed wine he brought with him. He was about to have a rain with the beauty, but suddenly vomited blood and fell down.
It turned out that Jiang was poisoning in the wine. The reason for doing this was because three years ago, she accidentally learned that it was Ma Xinyi who harmed her husband Cao Erhu and her third uncle Zhang Wenxiang.
Although Jiang committed adultery with Ma Xinyi, he never thought of killing Cao Erhu. He had never expected his husband and third uncle to die because of himself, so he regretted that he had never had the opportunity to take revenge. This time he went south to Coconut City to avenge.
However, Ma Xinyi was very suspicious and had to try poison in daily diet. Jiang had no idea how to start, and he felt that he was not strong enough and could not die in one blow. Therefore, he did not dare to act when he first arrived and pretended to meet him, so he made the other party relax his vigilance.
Unexpectedly, this delay affected Zhang Wenxiang, who was loyal and righteous, and Jiang, who killed Ma Xinyi as he wished, took another glass of poisoned wine to apologize for his death.
At the end of the whole play, the audience was silent, neither of them came back to their senses. The plot of this drama was ups and downs and constantly turned, making people fall into the role without realizing it. The finale was unexpected, which was really sad.
The Taoyuan San Jiao, which makes people feel that the heroic Three Jewelry makes people yearn for an extremely sailing overseas, the hypocrite who hates people, the Zhongyi third brother who is regretful, and the strange woman who causes adultery and causes trouble but finally avenges her husband.
In addition, there is the Nanyang Coconut City without government control and free, the Nanyang Xiangyao Islands full of fragrant medicines, the cruel and bloodthirsty South China pirates, and the "Nanyang Duel" that makes people excited.
A "Stampering Horse" made the audience excited. When they walked out of the venue, many people were talking about it and talking about the plot just now, which was a dance.
Many people immediately turn around and queue up to buy tickets after going out, and want to watch another show to reminisce about their grudges and revenge.
Dou Jiande walked out of the field with a loss. Although the drama had ended, the plot still repeated in his mind and could not be removed.
This scene is so pleasing to him.
He just walked like this, and Ma Jing, who was with him, didn't say anything, and the two walked out of the theater.
It took a while for Dou Jiande to recover, and his mood was a little different from before watching the show.
Ma Jing invited the village chief Dou Jiande to watch the play, and of course he had other plans. The drama "Stampering Horse" is a play tailor-made for ordinary people. By telling a story of grudges, love and hatred, the people know that the world is so big that they don't have to guard a few acres of thin fields to live.
Instead of working hard in my hometown and digging food all day long but having to feed even with food and clothing, it is better to muster up the courage to go out and make a name for yourself, and you will have a big business.
If this kind of "encouragement" is driven by the government, it will basically be a counterproductive effect. The people will think that the government has bad intentions and are unwilling to try to explore outside.
But if it is expressed in the form of drama, then those young and strong people who are active in their hearts and hard to even have food and clothing in their hometown will naturally have ideas.
Who doesn’t want to be rich? Who doesn’t want to be rich in wives and concubines? Who doesn’t want to return home in glory?
As the saying goes, "The hero violates the ban with martial arts." The people are martial and brave and fierce, and the government is very troubled by this.
But today, Zi believes that it is a good thing for the people to be martial, and the government should be dispersed rather than blocked, so it is necessary to guide and organize appropriately so that those martial young and strong men can turn their attention to the frontiers and overseas.
Go to the border, go overseas, grab land, grab money, grab grain, grab women!
At this time, Ma Jing saw Dou Jiande really thinking, so he quickly struck while the iron was hot: "I heard that Dou Li Shang is a hero and respected the countryside. Why did he live in the fields for a mere little field?"
"Why do real men work hard all year round and worry about two meals a day?"
