Cai Wei said while hiding: "Why did I provoke you again, let Gongzi punish me with this kind of narrow-minded method?"

"Steward Zhou is so smart, you can't know how many mistakes you have made, right? This king traveled this time, and brought a total of more than 2,000 taels of silver, and this son is now short of money, but you are generous, and you take it all out at once to give it to your brother Zhang, and there is a face that it is the housekeeper of this son, I think it is almost a loser! ”

"At that time, we were a piece of fat on the lips of others, and I made this decision in a hurry, if the son thinks that the two thousand taels of silver are far more valuable than your life, I am willing to accept the punishment!"

Qin Fei was choked for a moment, and wiped the ice handkerchief on the left side of her face, "This king's life is a priceless treasure!" Even if you were a temporary expedient measure at the time, could it be that later, while the king was sick, pinching my face was also a matter of urgency? Do you think that this king was asleep at that time, and he did not know? ”

Cai Wei was speechless at this time, and was pinched hard by Qin Fei on her face, "If it weren't for the sake of what you said earlier, this king wouldn't be able to spare you this time!" ”

Did you say anything terrible before? Cai Wei looked dazed.

"Didn't the princess say that if I die, you will never live alone? This king wants to ask you whether you are forced to say this by the situation at that time, or is it your heartfelt words, your heartfelt words? Qin Fei asked casually.

"It's just telling the truth, if the prince had any accident that day, and it was known that His Royal Highness the King of Linchuan actually took the princess out of Beijing without permission and lost his life, will I, the princess who accompanied me, still have the life to live again?"

"Hmph, you know it! Even if this king dies before you, he will definitely ask you to bury this king. ”

"Then what if I die in front of His Highness?"

"What?" Qin Fei was stunned by her question.

"If I die in front of His Highness, will His Highness be willing to bury me with me?"

She asked this question very boldly, even a little presumptuous, but she just felt that it was too unfair, why did he have to ask her to be buried when he died?

"You want to be beautiful!" Qin Fei simply put the entire handkerchief on her face, and said in a vicious voice: "If you are gone, this king will go and grab a princess the next day." ”

Soon after arriving in Quanzhou, Qin Fei had been communicating with Quanzhou when he was still on the road, and when he arrived there, he only rested for one night, and he had to go out early the next morning to do his big business.

"Am I going too?" Cai Wei looked at the clothes that Qin Fei threw at her and asked.

"Well, I thought about it, and I think that Steward Zhou is still by my side, which makes my son feel more at ease, if there is any more accident, I can't say that you can be of some use!"

Cai Wei put on her pockmarked □□ and said, "Who is Childe going to see?" ”

"The chief helmsman of the Sea Eagle Club, the Zheng Yihu you mentioned earlier has now sat in the third position of the Sea Eagle Club, and it is by his connection that I can make an appointment with the chief helmsman Yu at sea today."

"Childe, don't you want to bring more people?" Seeing that Qin Fei only brought Qiu Wu and one of the guards, Cai Wei couldn't help but ask more.

"I have my own arrangements for the rest of the people, and the housekeeper can rest assured, even if there is any accident, I will never let people hurt you a little!"

Qiu Wu silently looked away, is His Royal Highness flirting with the princess again?

When the three of them arrived at the dock, Qin Fei took out a folding fan painted with a bright moon and fanned it twice, and immediately a man in gray greeted him, "Dare to ask the three guest officers if they want to go to sea to admire the moon?" ”

Qin Fei accepted the folding fan, shook his head and said: "It's not fifteen today, what moonlight is there to appreciate, my son went to sea this time, just to meet friends!" ”

The man hurriedly bowed down and said, "But Boss He, little Jia Cheng, my master has been waiting at sea for a long time, and I asked my son to follow me on the boat." He led Qin Fei and the three of them to a canopy boat.

Qin Fei looked at the small boat, frowned, and then said with a smile: "Using such a small boat to greet distinguished guests, your master really knows how to be hospitable!" I've never been on such a small, broken ship! ”

He swept his eyes at the dock, pointed to a big ship parked more than ten zhang away, and said, "Xiao Wu, go buy that boat, let's take that boat to sea." As for your little wrecked boat, lead the way. He said to the man in gray.

Jia Cheng saw that this Boss He bought a big boat worth 1,000 taels of silver and came back, it can be seen that he is indeed a very rich master, he couldn't help but move slightly, and without any objection, Boss He got on the big boat he bought newly, and he rowed a small boat to the west by himself, leading the way in front.

They had been traveling in the sea for two hours, and then they had turned around an island and traveled south for an hour, and they saw two very small islands, only seven or eight feet apart, and from a distance they looked like a pair of cat's ears, and a large black lacquered ship was parked on the sea between the two islands, with a flag of a white eagle on a blue background.

Na Jia Cheng took out a conch from the boat, put it to his mouth, and blew a few times, and after a while, he heard the sound of three long and two short conch sounds on the boat over there.

Jia Cheng then signaled Qin Fei to move the boat over, and when the two boats were not more than a foot apart, the two sturdy men on the opposite boat were holding an extremely long wooden plank in their hands, and the two of them shouted at the same time, throwing the wooden plank in their hands outward, and they were erecting on top of the two boats, like a small bridge.

The two of them jumped onto the plank and shouted in unison, "Your Excellency, please come aboard!" ”

Qin Fei didn't even bring Qiu Wu this time, and ordered him to stay on this ship to respond, and only took Cai Wei to the opposite boat.

He took Caiwei's hand across the wooden bridge and asked her, "Do you know water?" ”

Seeing Cai Wei shaking his head, he chuckled: "Then you must not fall, I don't know how to water, if you really fall, don't expect me to save you!" ”

As soon as the two of them entered the cabin, Cai Wei felt that something was wrong, she couldn't help wrinkling her nose, and looked around without a trace, feeling more and more strange, because she was standing behind Qin Fei, it was inconvenient to give him a look, so she tugged at his clothes, hoping that he could understand what he meant.

Qin Fei was staring up and down at an old man in a green robe sitting on a chair in the middle, unaware of her small movements.

The old man did not get up, but looked at the two of them sideways, without saying a word, and his face was gloomy.

Finally, Qin Fei showed a smile on his face first, and arched his hand: "In Xiayue Prefecture, Baocheng Shop He likes to do some maritime trading, and has always admired the prestige of the chief helmsman for a long time. ”

The chief helmsman nodded his head, "It turned out to be Boss He, fortunately, I don't know what to call this one?" Although the person standing behind Boss He was dark and ugly, his eyes were so bright that no one could afford to look at him twice.

Without Qin Fei opening his mouth, Cai Wei had already bowed his head and saluted: "Villain Zhou Wen, I have seen the chief helmsman of Yu, and he is a steward of Baocheng's shop. ”

"It turned out to be Steward Zhou, as soon as you entered this cabin, a pair of eyes kept looking around, but enough had you seen?"

Cai Wei was shocked, and secretly said that these people in the rivers and lakes really have excellent eyesight, but she was prepared, and said unhurriedly: "It's rude, but although I have a good relationship with Zheng Helm, I haven't seen him for five years. I don't want to look for him, but I didn't see his shadow, dare to ask me if this friend is not on the boat? ”

Chief Helmsman Yu glanced to the left, and a person sitting at the bottom of his left said: "There was suddenly an urgent matter to be done in today's meeting, so the Chief Helmsman ordered Third Brother Zheng to go to take care of it, but he didn't follow." ”

Qin Fei glanced at the blue-shirted man, "Dare to ask who this is?" ”

Lord Yu Duo's eyes flickered a few times and said: "This is my second brother Yu Hai, the second helmsman of our Sea Eagle Society, since Zheng San is not here, this business with Boss He will be handled by Yu Erhelm Master." You two may be seated and have tea. ”

"Boss He, you said in your letter that you want to negotiate a big deal with our Sea Eagle?" Before the two of them could sit down, the second helmsman asked.

Qin Fei glanced at the second helmsman and sat down on the chair with a big thorn, "Yes, now that there are many disasters and thieves in Middle-earth, it is really impossible to make much money if you want to do some side business, so it is better to take the road of shipping." I have a large collection of tea, silk, and porcelain, and I would like to ask your council to help me transport it to the neighboring island countries of Siam and the Ryukyus. How about the profits we get three or seven points, I have seven and you three. I don't know if the two helmsmen will accept or not accept He's business? ”

The second helmsman took a step forward and said: "Boss He, when you were talking about business with our Sea Eagle, you didn't say that in the letter, you clearly said that you had the route map of the Three Treasure Eunuchs who went to the Western Ocean and went to sea to the Western countries, and you want to make this sea smuggling business bigger and farther with us!" Otherwise, we wouldn't have moved our helmsman to come out to see you in person and talk to you about this deal. ”

Qin Fei crossed Erlang's legs and said with a smile: "That's, if I don't say that, how can I see the golden face of the chief helmsman!" ”

"Could it be that you're playing tricks on us?" Yu Hai began to draw his knife.

"How dare you, how dare you!" Qin Fei hurriedly explained: "This bite is not fat, I also said in the letter, we have to run a few smuggling transactions here in the East first, let me see how powerful your club is at sea, everyone can make money, so that we can discuss how to make this transaction farther away." ”

Yu Erhelm glanced at the chief helmsman Yu to the right, "To be honest, if it weren't for the recent bad smuggling business to the Oriental countries, we wouldn't have thought about the business of this ship to the Western Ocean, if we tossed for a long time, Boss He couldn't get the navigation chart to the Western countries, I'm afraid that everyone will be ugly at that time!" ”

"I naturally have this nautical chart, otherwise I wouldn't dare to take the initiative to provoke your guild. It's just that I don't want to say that such a precious thing will not be shown lightly, I want to show it to you, and you have to prove that your sea eagle will have the ability to cross the ocean and travel thousands of miles, right? ”

"Boss He, now not only is the court very strict in banning the sea, coupled with the rampant pirate ships of the Japanese people, this maritime business is really difficult to do, and now we are the only ones who dare to do smuggling business on this sea. It was we, who had been robbed by the Japanese of the two ships of goods last month, and were thinking about whether to stop it altogether, lest we do this bloody trade again. It was you who wanted to do shipping business, so you came to us, if you have to ask the brothers to run a few Oriental transactions first, it will be done! ”

"It's just that it's hard to talk about this sea matter, but not only rely on people and ships to eat, but also rely on God and the Dragon Lord to eat, if you encounter a typhoon and waves, pirates or something, you will only lose some silver, but what we lose is our lives! In view of this, shouldn't Boss He show the nautical chart first to show his sincerity? ”

"Sincerity?" Qin Fei pretended to be surprised and asked, "Could it be that this son didn't bring a single guard, and I and I, the powerless bookkeeper, got on your thief ship, which is not enough to show our sincerity and trust in you?" ”

He picked up the tea bowl in front of him, and as he put it into his mouth, he said, "It's your guild, let a fake helmsman come out to meet guests, is this your sincerity?" ”
