Start Being a Vassal King Today - Chapter 390

[Chapter 390 Acquaintance]

“Xiao Wu, aren’t you throwing yourself into a trap?”

A small fishing village in the east of Chang County, Liao County.

This is the farthest village from Yanzhou to Yanjun.

Chai Wu traveled for more than two days to arrive here.

Looking at the familiar village, his eyes couldn’t help turning slightly red.

Once, he had a poor but warm home here.

Like the people in the village, their family made a living by catching abalone from the sea and selling it.

But the Yuan family imposed heavy taxes on them, and his father and mother had to leave early and return late, and went to sea every day.

After going out to sea once, his parents and elder brother never came back.

The eldest brother, who was only fourteen years old, had to take over the duties of the parents.

But unexpectedly, he did not come back after going out to sea. The villagers who traveled with him said that they encountered the Goryeo warship.

In order to protect other villagers, his second brother blocked the warship of the Korean Navy by boat and was captured by the Koreans.

Hearing the news, the next day he stole a boat from the village and went to Korea to rescue his second brother.

But he was caught in a storm at sea and luckily survived. He was washed back to the coast and met by a dental dealer who tricked him into going to Yancheng and sold him to Wang Yanzhong.

“How can you catch tiger cubs if you don’t enter the tiger’s lair.” Chai Wu smiled at the villagers.

As soon as he came back, he was recognized by the people in the village.

Almost everyone in the village came to see him.

However, he did not reveal his identity, only saying that he had been doing business abroad for several years.

“Hey, your bold temperament is still the same.” A villager said, “Now we don’t dare to go to sea during the day, and the Korean warships are swaying around too frequently. If we only go to sea, we will definitely be caught. A few days ago, Yazi was captured by the Koreans, and his mother almost cried to death.”

“Zhang Yazi was captured by Koreans!” Chai Wu was surprised.

This tooth is the same age as him, and he has the best relationship with him in the village.

“It’s still a lie. Now the Koreans are getting more and more rampant. The warships sailed directly to our door in Yanzhou. Yazi was only a few miles away from the shore, but they were overtaken by the Korean warships. Next, I think the Koreans are going to go ashore and arrest people.” Another said.

“It’s just to bully us that Yanzhou doesn’t have a navy, or beat his son of a bitch.” A young man blushed.   Chai Wu pursed his lips, and said: “It won’t be long for these Koreans to be happy, we Yanzhou will have our own navy, and His Royal Highness King Yan will definitely deal with

these bastards.”

They were all startled, and their faces were filled with joy, “Really?”

“Really, I heard this when I was doing business in Yancheng. There will be no fakes, so please be patient.” Chai Wu said with a smile.

Everyone nodded with excitement.

At this time, Chai Wu took out a silver coin from his pocket, “Lend me someone’s boat.”

Everyone sighed, knowing that Chai Wu still had to go to sea.

A man said: “What money is not money, you can use my boat.”

Chai Wu smiled slightly, and put the money into the man’s hand, “Uncle Song, thank you.” After

that, he didn’t wait for the man to react. , and went to the sea.

He recognized the man’s boat, and it could only take two people.

Pushing the boat away from the shore and hoisting the sails, he waved his hand to the villagers without looking back.

The sea is vast and vast, stretching as far as the eye can see.

The scorching sun baked people who were also steaming on the sea uncomfortable.

After gradually losing sight of the land, Chai Wu waited quietly while throwing the net made of hemp rope from the boat into the sea to fish.

Within two hours, a warship appeared in his vision.

He immediately set sail and pretended to escape.

However, the warship quickly chased after it, and when the warship approached, the Goryeo soldiers laughed jokingly from above.

Raising his head, he looked at the deck of the warship, only to see a net thrown down from above, trapping him inside.

Immediately, a rope ladder was thrown down, and the Goryeo soldier went down the rope ladder, and raised the handle of his knife to hit him on the back of the head.

His eyes went dark, and Chai Wu passed out.

I do not know how long it has been.

A sudden chill woke him up, followed by the scolding of Goryeo soldiers.

At the same time, a stick hit him, and he opened his eyes suddenly in pain.

At this time, he found himself on a pier.

There are many warships moored on the pier, and there are more than ten warships under construction on the beach.

Many people with shackled feet carried logs back and forth.

“Let’s go!” Goryeo soldiers shouted Chai Wu could not understand, but he probably understood what it meant.

Lifting his foot, he found that the steps were heavy and accompanied by a clanging sound.

At this time, he found himself also in chains.

“This is Anseong Port in Korea?” Chai Wu secretly thought, while being driven towards the beach by the soldiers.

When he arrived at a warship under construction, he was handed over to the soldiers guarding the warship.

Then the soldier called another middle-aged man.

“When you arrive in Koryo, be honest and work hard. You won’t starve to death, or you will be thrown into the sea to feed the fish.” The middle-aged man said to Chai Wu viciously, which was actually a great eulogy.

Chai Wu didn’t speak, and the middle-aged man pointed to the logs piled not far away, “Go over there and carry the logs.”

When he came, Chai Wu observed the situation of the harbor carefully, thinking about it.

Not wanting to annoy the man who seemed to be the overseer, he walked towards the pile of logs.

After walking a few steps, his eyes suddenly stopped, and a familiar face came towards him. It was Zhang Yazi who the villagers said was captured by the Koreans a few days ago.

Zhang Yazi obviously recognized Chai Wu, his eyes widened suddenly, and he opened his mouth to call him.

But Chai Wu immediately gave him a look.

When the two were in the village, they had a tacit understanding. Zhang Yazi immediately put away his excited face and walked over with the log on his shoulders.

Night fell.

Torches were lit on the beach, and the voice of the overseer sounded, “Hurry up and eat, and continue working after eating. If the construction period is delayed, none of you will

be able to live.” Line up in front of the shed.

Chai Wu’s eyes searched the crowd, and soon met Zhang Yazi’s eyes, and Zhang Yazi immediately lined up behind Chai Wu.

“Fifth brother, why did you get caught by the Goryeo dog?” Zhang Yazi lowered his voice.

“It’s a long story, let me ask you, why did Goryeo build so many warships?” Chai Wu said.

“I heard from the people who came earlier that it seemed that I was attacking Yanzhou by sea. On the day I was arrested, I bumped into a Beidi man. That man seemed to have a high status, and even the King of Korea respected him very much.” Zhang Yazi said softly.

During the day they were whipped to work, but at night they would curse the Koreans and gossip about the docks while sleeping in a shed.

Naturally, he understood that it was the King of Korea who came that day.

Chai Wu’s eyes flickered, and he knew that this person must be Ulan Ba.

While chatting, the two arrived at the porridge shed. At this time, the Korean soldiers in the shed just poured a spoonful of gruel with only a few grains of rice into their bowls, and gave them a dark and rotten cake.
