Yang Boren was still in the classroom, and someone had already come to look for him, so Shen Yanqing asked him to go to the lookout at the stern of the boat.

This transport ship is also the shape of the fortune ship, there are three half-moon buildings on the stern deck, called the stern tower, and there is a watchtower on it, the so-called watchtower, in fact, it is more like a pavilion, the Chinese-style herringbone slope top, there are cornices, railings on three sides, and ventilation on all sides.

"The foreign ship sent people to the sentinel boat, and Lei Jizi is using a small ferry to send people to the No. 1 boat, and now the ship has set sail." Shen Yanqing saw that Yang Boren had arrived, turned his head and said a word, then turned his head again, and looked ahead with a telescope.

When Yang Bo came, he noticed that someone was lowering the sails, and he thought that the shaking of the hull just now should have something to do with this.

"It's Dutch." Shen Yanqing added another sentence, holding a telescope in her hand and watching it non-stop.

Yang Bo was surprised and asked, "The Dutch want to come to the No. 1 ship?" ”

"No, the ship is a Dutchman's ship, I haven't seen anyone yet, how do I know?" Shen Yanqing put down the binoculars, glanced at Yang Bo, looked at him with disgust, and said, "Your IQ is worrying." ”

Yang Bo was angry, obviously you didn't make it clear, okay?

"See for yourself." Shen Yanqing handed the telescope to Yang Bo.

Yang Bo took the telescope and put it in front of him, this kind of monocular, Yang Bo was really uncomfortable, his movements were a little sluggish, and Shen Yanqing's arm stretched out.

"Flatten the tube and what are you doing with your lens facing the sky? Count the stars? ”

Shen Yanqing rolled her eyes, raised her hand to correct the movement of Yang Bo's right hand, stretched out her arm, and naturally followed, Yang Bo's left arm was beautiful, just between the two peaks, and immediately had a soft sense of oppression, which made Yang Bo feel very comfortable.

Shen Yanqing is really a good teacher now, and she is tireless in teaching, Yang Bo was speechless, and turned his head to look at her.

Her Shen Yanqing's small mouth was upturned, her fair cheeks were stained with a layer of redness, and there was some disgust in her eyes, and she was even more naughty.

I only saw one rabbit, and the other one was behind, there was no fluttering, they were all very quiet, there is an idiom that says it well, quiet as a rabbit, which probably refers to this quiet and peaceful scene, Yang Bo thought so, feeling that Shen Yanqing was teasing him.

This kind of inadvertent touch makes the skin crispy and numb, and it can also send a signal, which is transmitted through the nerve endings, to the bone marrow, and then to the furrows and ravines of the cerebral cortex.

There is no one else around, everyone is very innocent, although Shen Yanqing is a little bold, but she is actually very easy to blush, such a woman is especially sensitive to this kind of accidental touch, and it is easy to have that feeling of overelectricity, and that feeling is really wonderful, pleasant, with endless aftertaste, and makes people have beautiful emotions.

The foreign ship said that it was going to send people to talk about cooperation, and since it was cooperation, she was relieved, and she didn't take it too seriously, and it was also good to experience that wonderful feeling.

Yang Bo was a pseudo-military fan in his previous life, often lingering in the major military circles, especially paying attention to naval equipment, even small animals, small trains, the nicknames of this domestic warship are familiar, knowing that the popular ship type in Europe during this period is the Galen ship, followed by the so-called flying clippers, and then the ironclad ship.

The Galen has a low center of gravity and a deep draft*, and is characterized by a bow mast with a protruding triangular platform under the mast with a toilet for the crew, and all other structures have been moved to the stern.

Because the draft* is deeper, it can greatly reduce the possibility of the sailboat rolling over, which is safer to sail at sea, but the speed of the ship is also affected, and the speed is not its advantage.

Using this kind of ship as a warship, equipped with dozens of broadside cannons, many ships were shot in a row during the war, and the muzzle of the black hole was stretched out, which was indeed terrifying, and the concept of battleship was first proposed in the period of the Galen ship, which shows that its firepower is still very fierce.

The tiger squat cannon equipped on the Shen family warship, no matter the range, firepower can not be compared with the Galen warship, at present, all the warships of the Ming Dynasty do not have side guns, the guns are directly placed on the deck, but can move flexibly, but this can only attack the personnel and buildings on the deck of the enemy ship, almost impossible to sink the enemy ship.

The Galen ships equipped with side guns can occupy a favorable formation in naval battles, give full play to their firepower advantages, and can easily sink enemy ships, so it seems that the Ming warships are lagging behind.

However, now Yang Bo could not see the side of the ship, and could not determine whether the ship was a warship.

The pirate genes in the bones of Europeans have never changed, this is what Yang Bo knew about them in his previous life, not to mention that some of these white Europeans who came out to mix were pirates themselves.

Nine times out of ten, this ship is a warship.

"A pointed head and a square tail, with a bow mast in the bow, a barricade in the middle, and a spinnaker in the back, is the Galen ship." Yang Bo put down the binoculars, his face quite solemn.

"How do you know it's... What is a Lun ship? Shen Yanqing said curiously.

Her right arm was removed, but her body was tighter.

It doesn't hurt to take a hit, and no one can see it. Shen Yanqing thought so in her heart, but her pretty face turned even redder, her eyes were like autumn water, and her heart was already cloudy, and she had forgotten where she was.

"At the shipyard, didn't I ask Lin Chuzhen? You're there, why did you forget? ”

Yang Bo found a reason for himself, Shen Yanqing's performance today was so strange, it was a bit nonsensical.

He is not as optimistic as Shen Yanqing, if the coming ship is a warship, in case it is not good, in fact, their situation is very dangerous.

"Oh.." Shen Yanqing pouted, and seeing Yang Bo's solemn look, she quickly stood up straight and said, "That.. Let's go down, Brother Lei is afraid that he will send someone over. ”

The two of them walked down the lookout and came to the command cabin, where a soldier who had been waiting for a long time, and they did not delay, and hurriedly followed him down the stern.

The visitors were placed on the first floor of the stern, which was also a cabin above the deck, in which ropes, sacks, and some square logs of various sizes were pushed, presumably to adjust the direction of the sails, and were temporarily used to meet guests.

Yang Bo walked into the cabin, Shen Yanqing followed closely, and the person who came looked at it for a while, knowing that these two people were Yang Bo and Shen Yanqing, he bowed his hand and said: "Contemptible Huang Renjie, I have long admired the name of Yang Gongzi, I can see you today, Sansheng is fortunate to have seen Miss Shen." ”

Yang Bo looked at the visitor, his face was a little dark, but his appearance was upright, with a mustache and short hair under his chin, which seemed to have been deliberately trimmed, unlike the Ming people Yang Bo had seen, who allowed their beards to grow naturally.

"Mr. Wang, are you a Dutch translator? Have you heard of me? Where did you hear that? Yang Bo asked repeatedly.

Huang Renjie was stunned for a long time when he heard this, and then said: "Childe misunderstood, I can speak their words, but I am not a translator." I'm a businessman, and I happen to do business with them, so this time I'm just here to help spread the word because of fate. Also, my surname is Huang, Caotou Huang, not Wang. ”

Yang Bo was surprised, it was still Mr. Wang, and it took a lot of speech to figure out that he was a Cantonese, and some people in Guangdong had a strong official accent, and Wang and Huang did not distinguish between him.

"Okay, Mr. Huang, where did you hear about me?" Yang Bo finally figured it out and still asked.

"This.." Mr. Huang was suffocated again, and said in his heart, I just said a kind word, but will I say a kind word? I've never seen Yang Bo like this.

But Yang Bo wanted to verify the origin of the Dutch ship, and he couldn't think of a good way for a while, so he could only pull around.

A foreign ship came to the Daming Sea Frontier thousands of miles away, and it really didn't work as a small ship of friendship?

Huang Renjie stubbornly said: "The Dutch ship is replenished in Ningbo, I will help them buy some goods, and listen to the Pu family in Zhoushan talk about Yang Gongzi, this..." Mr. Huang took out something from his arms, which was a match, a very luxurious deerskin wrapper.

"I bought a few pieces in Ningbo, which were very expensive, and got on the ship of the Dutch, and when they saw this match, they wanted to cooperate with Yang Gongzi."

"And how do they know I'm on this ship?" Yang Bo asked.

Huang Renjie looked stunned, and said with a forehead: "I am a businessman, so naturally I have a way to know the whereabouts of my son, and the Pu family also knows that some of them are doing business in Shenjiabao, just ask around." ”

"What kind of business does Mr. Huang usually do with the Dutch?"

Yang Bodong spoke with a hammer and a mallet in the west, Shen Yanqing couldn't look at it, she felt that Yang Bo was very impolite, it seemed that she had something in mind, she glanced at Yang Bo obliquely, just looked at Yang Bo quietly, and didn't say much.

"I buy some novel goods from them and sell them to Daming, and I also help them buy goods from Daming."

"What did you sell to Da Ming?"

Speaking of business, Huang Renjie is energetic, talking endlessly, Yang Bo learned that this person is a middleman, and now he is mainly selling European-made grandfather clocks in Daming, but the sales are not good, and sometimes he also helps the Dutch and Spaniards buy some things, according to him, there are Dutch and Spaniards in Taiwan now.

In the words of the late Qing Dynasty, people like them are compradors, and many people have done this kind of thing, including the Zheng family in Mindi, Zheng Zhilong probably did it when he was young, and Yang Bo also felt that it was nothing.

"Young Master Yang." Huang Renjie was mysterious, and asked in a low voice: "Contemptible people can get the Westerners' telescopes, fire guns, is the son interested?" ”

Yang Bo can now make a reloading firing gun, this is the most advanced firearm in the world, if there is enough iron, Yang Bo even plans to cast a cannon, I believe it will not be worse than the Westerners, all he needs is time.

"We'll talk about that later." Yang Bo was not interested in buying the firearms of the Westerners, but he did not explicitly refuse, and said: "How do the Dutch want to cooperate?" ”

"The Dutch heard that Childe's matches were given away for free, and they felt very sorry for Childe, and they wanted to buy Childe's matchmaking method, so they specially asked the contemptible people to invite Childe to their ship to talk, the price is easy to say, I wonder if Childe can appreciate it?"

Now it seems that the Dutch are not on a whim, they should have been following since the Shen family's fleet left Shenjiabao, talking about cooperation can go to the stone temple, talk about cooperation in this way at sea, open your mouth to buy the method, this is not a legitimate way of cooperation, which makes Yang Bo very unhappy.

"Mr. Huang, what if I don't buy it?" Yang Bo looked at Huang Renjie with burning eyes.

"Well, that's a shame, as far as I know, the Dutch are willing to pay a lot of money." Huang Renjie was heartbroken and shook his head, feeling that Yang Bo had missed a good opportunity to make a fortune.

"The match factory in Shimiao does not belong to me Yang Bo alone, whether to sell or not, I can't be the master alone, the Dutch may not know, match production needs phosphate rock, no phosphate rock knows the production method is useless, you go back and tell them, as long as they are willing to pay silver, I have a lot of projects, Shenjiabao opens the door and welcomes them to invest in silver and shares."

After Yang Bo finished speaking, he stood up, and casually asked about the situation of the Pu family in Zhoushan, saying that the fleet also needed to be replenished in Zhoushan, Huang Renjie was refreshed, and said: "The Pu family also has a lot of business in Zhoushan. ”
