"In that case!" The scheming He Xiwen twisted the beard under his chin.

"I might as well go directly to Pattani, why bother working for this Ruan family? If you think that those natives who believe in the Heavenly Sect in Pattani, they must not be as fierce as the Xishan Army! ”

it! Ye Kai was a little dumbfounded, he didn't expect that He Xiwen would want to go directly to Beitani, it seems that he was also beaten by the Xishan Army a little psychologically!

And he suddenly discovered that He Xiwen's face is really not ordinarily thick! Just refused to be wooed by himself, and in a blink of an eye, he still wanted to run to the Ye family's North Day to get away!

"Brother He! In fact, it's not impossible to go directly to Pattani, but the brothers of Huashantang have the ability, are they so willing to go to the soil to dig food?

Everyone is a good man who has cut off the head of a chicken, drank red wine, worshiped the five ancestors, and is determined to oppose the Qing Dynasty, and now Ruan Zhu Fuying has been following the laws of the Ming Dynasty, and he still has the heart to become the commander of the Ming Dynasty again.

Besides, if you go to Pattani, you may not even be able to do it as a rich man, but stay in Annan to join the Ruan family, we Tang people twist into a rope, in this land of Tiannan, cut off the braids, rebuild the Ming Dynasty, and be a hero like the 28th general of Yuntai? ”

Ye Kai wiped a handful of sweat in his heart, damn, he blew the Pattani too much, who would have thought that these guys would want to go directly to the Pattani.

"Brother-in-law, I don't want to go to Pattani, we work hard to cultivate and reclaim the land of Longchuan, how can you say give up and give up, and if you want me to plant for a lifetime, then it is better to kill me, manly and famous, but take it from the horse, if you really want to farm, why come to this Nanyang!"

Liang Wenying opened his mouth unhappily to object, and when he said this, many people in the Juyi Hall immediately began to agree.

These guys are outlaws, and if you want them to farm, you might as well kill them.

Ye Kai suddenly felt that Liang Wenying's kid was actually quite cute, he would say it if he had something to say, and he wouldn't be pretentious, although many times what he said was not very good!

"What's the noise? Do you want to farm? Lao Tzu is not for your peace, I don't want you all to throw your lives in this Quang Nam! ”

He Xiwen turned his eyes sideways, in fact, he didn't want to go to Pettani just like this, he was fed up with the days under the fence!

said that he wanted to go to Pattani, but it was just a gesture of his, this was to tell Ye Kai that although the Xishan Dynasty recruited Mo Guanfu, he He Xiwen did not only have the option of going to Ruan Fuying, since he could go to Pattani, he could also go to Borneo, and he could also go to Java.

After scolding his pirate club, He Xiwen raised his wine bowl to Ye Kai, "Brother Shuwu is a guest from afar, and the journey is hard, let's not talk about anything else today, just brotherhood!" After speaking, he took the first sip of the wine in the bowl!

The big and small leaders in the hall applauded, and Ye Kai could only raise the wine bowl and pretend to agree happily.

The banquet continued, and these pirates were just rough people, and when they didn't talk about things, they had no rules, and after a while, the whole hall began to fight and brag.

Ye Kai frowned, he still thought about things a little simpler, maybe He Xiwen didn't want to bet too early before he reached the critical moment.

Maybe he has already decided to bet, but he has to be reserved and boil Ye Kai to fight for more benefits, but in any case, Ye Kai is likely to have nothing to gain from this trip.

But he is on Ruan Fuying's side, he has already boasted of Haikou, and it is estimated that he will soon follow Peter to France, which will be at least two or three years.

When he was in France, He Xiwen ran to join Ruan Fuying, so what is this? Can't get the benefits of a hard trip and a half?

So He Xiwen can afford to drag it out, but Ye Kai can't afford it, and because he doesn't have a little influence in the Guangnan Army, if he can't pull He Xiwen down to Ruan Fuying's side and tie He Xiwen to himself, how much capital can he have just by relying on the French?

This is an Eastern world after all, and it is absolutely impossible not to just point to the support of the French, but also to pull some arms around you!

What to do? What to do? Ye Kai quickly turned his brain, how can I get He Xiwen now?

Suddenly, Ye Kai saw He Yu'er who was drinking with a bearded pirate, according to the information provided by Zhao Zhenren, He Xiwen is almost forty years old this year, He Yu'er's age Zhao Zhenren is not very clear, but it is estimated that he is at least twenty-three or four years old.

In this era, a girl who has not yet married at the age of twenty-three or fourteen is already a super-old leftover girl, and in the twenty-first century, it is basically equivalent to thirty-five or sixteen years old who have never even talked about a boyfriend!

He Yuer is so old, why doesn't He Xiwen marry him off?

Although this girl is a little arrogant, many times like a man's wife, but in fact, she looks quite good, and she follows He Xiwen every day to run north and south, and she is not very dark.

In this Nanyang Chinese circle where there are more men and fewer women, a girl like He Yuer definitely does not worry about getting married, at least Ye Kai can see that many young people here are very interested in He Yuer.

Will? Ye Kai touched his chin, could it be that He Xiwen didn't want to marry his sister to a pirate?

He doesn't want his sister to continue this kind of life of licking blood from the knife, and he may not know when she will become a widow?

Thinking of this, Ye Kai's spirits perked up, and he suddenly thought of a good entry point, that is, to help He Xiwen marry He Yuer!

Of course not marrying himself, he is now the son-in-law of the Ruan family in Guangnan, He Xiwen will never let his sister be a concubine, Ruan Fuying will give Ye Kai two maids in the palace, and he will never let him take a concubine so soon, which is related to the face of the Ruan family.

So Ye Kai wanted to marry He Yu'er to his cousin, that is, Ye Ming, the eldest son of the third uncle Ye Fushun.

Ye Kai noticed his cousin because he happened to see the account book of the Longsheng, as the main industry of the Ye family in Siam, the capital flow of the Longsheng is quite a lot, at least one or two hundred taels of silver a day!

And there are few wrong accounts in the accounts of the Longsheng, every one of them is recorded clearly and there are traces to follow, all of which are the credit of Ye Ming.

Ye Kai took a closer look, and many of the bookkeeping methods were created by Ye Ming, and they were already very close to the accounting books of later generations!

After in-depth understanding, Ye Kai knew that his cousin was actually a mathematical genius, who could be self-taught just by relying on a few books such as "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" and "Ancient Arithmetic".

Ye Kai is going to Europe this time to bring this cousin, in this era of hot weapons that has begun, mathematics is definitely a very important basic science, and it can even be said to be the foundation of all science!

And in the South Seas, artillery is even more useful than muskets, and this kind of thunderous guy in the eyes of the natives of Nanyang is definitely the most terrifying weapon!

However, shooting cannons is a technical job!

As long as the musket has been trained for a certain period of time, and then it can be placed in a dense formation, and the dense projectiles can be used to make up for the lack of accuracy!

But can't be used for cannons, and mathematical knowledge is required to measure distance, firing angle, wind speed, ballistics, charge, and propellant.

Without high-quality artillery, the cannon is actually just a sound, except for psychological deterrence, it does not have much lethality!

Ye Kai has long noticed this problem, muskets are not a rare thing in Nanyang, he Ye Kai can have them, and others can also have them!

But high-quality and efficient artillery is different, this will become a big killer in Ye Kai's hands, and the first artillery instructor he selected, or learner, is his cousin Ye Ming Ye Xingwu!
