Chapter 202: Bad luck and bad luck

Shen Junrong excitedly gave Guo Zhiyuan a military salute and said excitedly: "Please rest assured, no matter how strong the opponent is, if you want to keep us, I will definitely teach them a profound lesson!" ……”

Standing next to Shen Junrong are Zhang Cheng and Fa Zheng, who are also looking at Guo Zhiyuan with an excited face at this time, these two are also Guo Zhiyuan's must bring, Guo Zhiyuan needs Zhang Cheng to collect intelligence, and Fa is currently the best person under Guo Zhiyuan, with him by his side, Guo Zhiyuan's safety can be guaranteed, so without waiting for the two to speak, he pointed to the two and smiled: "You two also go, Fa Zheng, you will be my personal guard, Zhang Cheng, I want you to set off to Zhangzhou Haichengyue Port first, and inquire about the news of a foreigner there......"

After explaining to Zhang Cheng, Guo Zhiyuan retracted his gaze, but saw that Zhao Shizhen, who was sitting opposite Zhang Cheng, was actually a little eager to try, Zhao Shizhen was his baby bump, and he naturally couldn't let Zhao Shizhen follow him to take risks, so he hurriedly said: "Mr. Zhao, don't go, but I need your musket very much, how many flintlock pistols have been produced in the workshop at present?" ……”

Zhao Shizhen has been obsessed with firearms all his life, and he has heard that the firearms of the Spaniards are powerful, so he wants to follow Guo Zhiyuan to see it, and when he heard Guo Zhiyuan say this, he knew that there was no play, and scratched his head and said: "There are only twenty flintlock guns, mainly because the barrel is difficult to drill, if the son needs it, I can remove the barrel on the Thunderbolt, so that I can assemble about ten ......"

Guo Zhiyuan waved his hand vigorously and said, "Okay!" Bring all 30 sticks! Select the 30 people with the best eyesight from the regimental training villagers, let them get familiar with the drill these days, these 30 flintlock pistols are our killer weapon, and if you don't know the critical moment, you will rely on these 30 flintlock pistols to save your life! ……”

After speaking, Guo Zhiyuan looked at the last candidate he was going to bring on this trip--- Shen Lingyu, this time it is so dangerous to go to Luzon, in case of conflict, it is inevitable that someone will be injured, and this time Guo Zhiyuan will also rescue the surviving Chinese businessmen who were imprisoned by the Spaniards, these people have been imprisoned by Spain for so long, and there must be a lot of injuries, so that Shen Lingyu, the doctor, can work, so he nodded to Shen Lingyu and said: "This time, I may have to ask Dr. Shen to accompany me on a trip, and bring more to prevent seasickness, diarrhea, water and soil adaptation, Trauma and other medicines, Dr. Shen will stay on the ship at that time, and there will be no need to land with us, so it will be safer......"

Shen Lingyu was tortured by Jinyiwei at the beginning, but he would rather die than give in and frame Guo Zhengyu as the mastermind behind the demon book case, he was not a person who was greedy for life and afraid of death, so he quickly stood up and arched his hand: "I am stubborn, I dare not ask for ......."

After arranging everything, Guo Zhiyuan went to see Sun Chuan again, Guo Zhiyuan already knew that Sun Chuan had been a pirate, but this layer of window paper had not been pierced, but this time he had to have a showdown with Sun Chuan, because his men had no sailing experience, and they had to rely on Sun Chuan's strength, but this time it was not much more dangerous than the previous bandits, and it was likely that he would not be able to come back once he went, although Sun Chuan was currently in the honeymoon period of cooperation with Guo Zhiyuan, But would he be willing to take such a big risk to tie himself to Guo Zhiyuan's warship completely?

Sure enough, when Guo Zhiyuan explained his intention to Sun Chuan straight to the point, and wanted to borrow a boat and a sailor to go to Luzon with him, although Sun Chuan did not immediately refuse directly, he showed an embarrassed expression, and said to him: "Lord Guo, those Daxi people (note: the name of the people of the Ming Dynasty for foreigners) are not easy to mess with, and this sea is not as dangerous as the land, it is very dangerous, Lord Guo still can't go if you don't go, besides, the old man drives a carriage and horses, where do you let the old man go to get you a lucky boat and sailors?" ……”

Guo Zhiyuan had already guessed that Sun Chuanhui would react like this, and said with a smile: "Old Sun, let's open the skylight and say something bright, Sun Lao is a dragon on the sea, is he willing to lie dormant on the land?" The profit of this sea trade is much higher than that of the carriage and horse trade, is Sun Lao willing to give up? ……”

Sun Chuan saw Guo Zhiyuan reveal his origin, a terrifying light suddenly flashed in his eyes, and he stared at Guo Zhiyuan, but Guo Zhiyuan continued to laugh casually: "Guo also knows that this trip is dangerous, but it is the so-called blessing and danger, if Guo is lucky enough to live up to his mission, it will be a carp jumping over the dragon gate, if Guo is in charge of the government in the future, he must persuade the saint to open the sea ban and open the sea trade, Sun Lao has known Guo for not a day or two, when he knows that Guo never does something uncertain, it depends on whether Sun Lao is willing to accompany Guo to gamble. If Sun Lao is unwilling, Guo will not be reluctant, and Sun Lao will treat Guo as if Guo has never come......"

Listening to Guo Zhiyuan say the words "open the sea ban, open the sea trade", Sun Chuan's eyes lit up, after the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, the coast was repeatedly harassed by the Japanese invaders, so it has been to enforce the sea ban, not allowed to sail into the sea. However, Fujian is a province with few land and many people, and most of the people in the area of Quanzhou and Zhangzhou rely on the sea to eat the sea and do maritime trade, so the repeated prohibitions have not stopped, but more and more Fujian people have colluded with the Japanese armed smuggling. After the first year of Longqing, in Zhangzhou Haicheng opened the port, the ship can be piloted by the ship to navigate the trade, only forbidden to come and go with the day, but the ship is not easy to get, and the number is very small, Wanli 17 years, only 88 copies of the ship are issued every year, in order to compete for a ship, the maritime merchants almost broke their heads, because the Haicheng Moon Port is the only port that allows trade at sea during the Wanli period, therefore, the maritime merchants have the greatest power of the Haicheng people, basically every Haicheng maritime merchant has a big man behind the backer, Sun Chuan is to compete with the Haicheng maritime merchant for the ship to lead the defeat, before they had to retreat from the sea to land.

Guo Zhiyuan's words just hit the key point in Sun Chuan's heart, Guo Zhiyuan is so young, and he has been listed in the Wanli Emperor, as long as he can pass the current difficulty, the future will be immeasurable, and it is not impossible to become a feudal official. You can get huge returns on your investment, become a hegemon on the sea, and you can also avenge the revenge of being driven away like a lost dog by Haicheng maritime merchants back then!

Thinking of this, Sun Chuan no longer hesitated, slapped the armrest of the chair and said, "Okay!" The old man gave up his life to accompany the gentleman and accompany the adult to gamble! From now on, my grandson's mansion will be driven by adults, and I hope that my grandchildren will not forget today's promise, and when they are in charge of the party in the future, they can let my grandson family have a place on the sea! ……”

Guo Zhiyuan was also overjoyed when he heard it, this Sun Chuan is worthy of being a hero on the sea in the past, bold enough, if he doesn't gamble, he will bet on all his net worth, and completely tied the Sun family to his own warship, and hurriedly solemnly raised his hand and swore an oath: "Sun Lao rest assured, Guo has made achievements in the future, and he will not forget the Sun family, Sun Lao's support for Guo today, Guo will repay him tenfold!" If you violate this oath, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed! ……”

Besides, Qin Shou returned to Fuzhou in a gloomy manner, the more he thought about it, the more aggrieved he became, his dignified prefect was actually slapped in the face by Guo Zhiyuan continuously, and he had to kneel in front of Guo Zhiyuan, this face was really embarrassing! So he immediately found Xu Xueju to report the matter, Xu Xueju heard that Guo Zhiyuan held the secret decree of the Wanli Emperor and was appointed as a diplomatic envoy to Luzon to negotiate with the Spaniards.

Qin Shou saw that Xu Xueju didn't speak, and thought that he was also frightened by the secret decree in Guo Zhiyuan's hand, so he gritted his teeth and said: "The emperor's secret decree is not in line with the laws of the imperial court, it is really a chaotic life. ……”

Xu Xueju came to his senses at this time, and hurriedly waved his hand and said: "No, the matter of the Luzon chieftain killing my Ming merchants and people has been unresolved for a long time, which has made the saint very dissatisfied with my Fujian officials, and the reason why the saint asked Guo Zhiyuan to send an envoy to Luzon with a secret decree is that he does not want to publicize this matter, so that even if Guo Zhiyuan's envoy is unfavorable, it will not damage the face of the imperial court. ……”

I have to say that Xu Xueju is indeed scheming, and he is very accurate in thinking about Wanli's thoughts, Qin Shou listened to his analysis and knew that he was reasonable, but he still said a little unwillingly: "Could it be that I just sit back and watch Guo Zhiyuan's villain be proud and let it run rampant?!" ……”

Xu Xueju glanced at Qin Shou, he originally had high hopes for Qin Shou, thinking that since he was a disciple of Gu Xiancheng, he must have known people, but after this incident, he was extremely disappointed in Qin Shou, frowned and said unhappily: "Lord Qin, the old man has already told you, although this Guo Zhiyuan is young, he should not be underestimated, you don't easily provoke him, you don't listen, and you don't discuss with the old man to impeach him, but now this Guo Zhiyuan is reused by the saint, how can you suppress him?!" Those who become great things, when there is a large amount of energy, you see that this Guo Zhiyuan is more powerful than you, this time he wants to catch you and smash the plaque inscribed by the saint himself, how do you get out? Since he let go of pursuing this matter, he doesn't want my Donglin Party people to be evil, he is young, he has this scheming, even the old man does not dare to despise him, you are against him, isn't it humiliating yourself? ! ……”

This was a bit heavy, so that Qin Shou's face was really a little unbearable, green and red for a while, Xu Xueju also wanted to borrow Gu Xiancheng's fame, but it was not good to criticize Qin Shou too harshly, so he slowed down his tone and said: "And although this Guo Zhiyuan seems to be reused by the saint this time, how can those Spaniards be so easy to get along with?" Even the old man is quite troubled by the Luzon chieftain's attempt to kill the merchants of our dynasty, and he is helpless, no matter how powerful he Guo Zhiyuan is, I am afraid that he will not be able to return to the sky, and he is only afraid that Luzon will be more auspicious, and it is fortunate to be able to retreat with his whole body, even if he can retreat with his whole body, if he can't complete his mission, there is no need for me to impeach, and the saint will not spare him! ……”
