This series of personnel adjustments strengthened the strength of the three overseas territories, especially in Macau, which was the first line of immigration and trade, and with the assistant, Dai Xiaoshan's work focus would also be shifted to immigration as suggested by Zhu Beiguo, especially in liaison with the church and the four major families, and the establishment of inland strongholds.

Zhu Beiguo pinned great hopes on the connections of the four Chinese businessmen in the interior, and he believed that Dai Xiaoshan and Irush could play a key role in this—just a few days ago, according to the arrangement of the Qiao family, the two held a grand wedding in Macau, and the two officially became the sons-in-law of the Qiao family.

On August 6, the Nicole received 600 Sulu Han tenant slaves from the Sulu Kingdom in a huge pulp sailing ship on the sea, and the two sides completed various transactions at sea in accordance with the trade agreement reached earlier, including Australian goods worth 50,000 taels of silver and local Sulu specialties of almost equal value.

Now, the two sides have become familiar to the point of meeting and saying hello, and starting to make a deal without saying a word, the two giant slurry sailing ships leaned to the bow and stern of the Nicole, and sent people up and down to deliver the goods, after the thing was done, it was usually Lord Haruban or Zheng Fu who delivered the liquidator and the goods at the same time on both sides, and then went to the crew restaurant of the Nicole to settle the silver two with the first mate Han Qisheng and others, and completed the daily affairs in one morning, and then the two sides said goodbye and left.

It's just that this time everyone chatted a little more, because the old acquaintances of Ha Zheng and the others, Zhu Beiguo Peng Qiang and other people from the original Pride were present, so they added a few dishes to the crew restaurant, and the two sides chatted happily.

It's just that in the process of interaction between the two sides, judging from the expressions of Zheng Fu and Zhu Beiguo exchanging glances with each other, there seems to be a hint of conspiracy here.

That's right, it is.

When Zhu Beiguo took Brother Peng Qiang and a few of them warmly beckoned Lord Haluban to sit down, and then opened the mud seal of a clay pot, and the aroma of milk wine from the fairy cave wafted out from it, the conspiracy began.

Zheng Fu and Zhu Beiguo both know that Lord Haluban has no resistance to the Immortal Cave Milk Wine, as long as he is comfortable, this is a chatterbox, as soon as it is opened, it will be endless---- as long as you guide it a little, the topic can be transferred to the place you are interested in, and then you can get a wealth of first-hand information.

Although Prime Minister Suhabi Datu is wise, he is full of such people, there is no way, who makes him only trust his relatives and brother-in-law---- this can be regarded as a disguised "Wu Dalang opens a shop".

Sure enough, a few glasses of milk wine went down, and the smell of wine went up, and the words of Lord Ha increased, so Zhu Beiguo also took the opportunity to say a few words that touched the heartstrings, such as Prime Minister Suhabi is a holy master, but it is not easy to work under such a master, in fact, you Ha Daren is a capable person with real skills---- and so on warm words, so Haluban said with a crying voice like a child, Lord Zhu Mingjian, it is not easy for me to Haluban, a while ago, the envoy of the king of the king entered the capital to pay tribute, If I was not well entertained, I was scolded by the Prime Minister, and I was almost beaten by the board......

The King? Envoy to Jingnagong?

Zhu Beiguo immediately sensed something, he immediately signaled to Zheng Fu, who immediately nodded and said to Haluban, I heard that the Dong King's private market Hongmaoyi is very profitable, but the prime minister's fleet is not allowed to enter the port, why is he sending an envoy to pay tribute now?

Haluban shook his head when he heard it and said, Brother Zheng only knows one and doesn't know the other, the king of Dong fornicated with Hongmaoyi foreign countries, and the prime minister naturally knew about it, but now the limelight of Australian goods has long overshadowed the things of Xiyi, and the king of Dong learned that the prime minister has Australian goods, so he came to pass the money, just to share the liel from it......

Zheng Fu nodded when he heard this, and responded with a look of sudden realization, saying that the Prime Minister has always been magnanimous, and since the King of Dong knows about paying tribute, he must have agreed to the Prime Minister.

Haluban snorted when he heard this, and said, "The king of Natong lives in North Sulu and has always been self-contained, and since the Prime Minister opened a port to trade with Xiyi in Zamboanga, he urgently sent an envoy to Beijing to ask the Prime Minister to allow him to join the trade in the place.

The king of the mountain and Xiyi originally had trade, and each of them did their own business, so why did the king of the mountain give up the near and seek to go to the Zamboanga to mix?

Zhu Beiguo, who had been sitting next to him silently, suddenly asked.

Haluban replied casually: It's just that the Xiyi galleon is carrying bronze cannons and Yangyi fire guns, these things were originally intended for the king of Dong, but now for some reason, the prime minister wants them all, or exchange them for Australian goods......

Hearing this, Zhu Zheng and the two exchanged a look, obviously, the prime minister is collecting arms, is this preparing to fight with whom?

When Zheng Fu heard this, he casually filled the glass in Haluban's hand with Xianrendong milk wine, and said with a smile: The prime minister has Australian goods in his hand, and Xiyi is naturally willing to trade with them, but he is envious when he thinks about it, and there are thousands of Australian calico in the account, these goods will definitely be able to exchange for a lot of firearms, and the prime minister is wise and martial, and he must have a big career to do.

Haluban leaned his neck and took a few sips of milk wine in his stomach, chirped his lips, and exhaled a breath of wine, at this time, the head of the thing was obviously completely covered by the fairy hole, and his tongue knotted and responded, this ...... Already...... The Sutra is the ...... The third ship is coming, and I will tell you, Prime Minister...... People have ...... There is a big plan, to go on an expedition to Borneo and follow the Bo ...... Mud Country ...... Fight......

"That Bo mud is thousands of miles away, so if you go on such an expedition, do you have a chance of winning?"

At this time, Zhu Beiguo looked at Haluban with blazing eyes.

"Master Zhu has ...... As far as I know, this wave of mud is far away, but ...... With the help of Xiyi warships...... The Prime Minister said...... 200,000 taels of silver, Xiyi can send troops......"

Master Ha was completely drunk at this time, stretched out two fingers and muttered in his mouth:

"Five hundred...... Musketeers, three hundred spearmen, strong ships...... and the prime minister's army can be combined in one place...... Drums and ...... Next ......"

"That being the case, congratulations to the Prime Minister for expanding the territory of Sulu and making contributions, presumably His Majesty the King of the East will be more dependent on the Prime Minister in the future......"

"Hop...... Acacia Stuffed ...... The Prime Minister drinks with His Majesty the King...... When you drink, you win greatly......"

After saying this, Haluban fell asleep on the desk, and Zheng Fu came over and shook Lord Ha's body, who was already unconscious......

Zhu Beiguo and Zheng Fu put the Ha people on the crew bed in the next cabin with a drag and dragged them, and after returning to the restaurant, the two discussed urgently, at this time Zheng Fu solemnly told Zhu Beiguo: This Xiyi soldier ship must not be to conquer any Bo Ni country, obviously to assist the prime minister to plot the court, and the king of Yu is also here, the two sides join forces, I am afraid that the prime minister will attack the king of the east recently, the specific time should be the middle of December, because that season is the day when the Sulu people brew acacia wine, From kings to ordinary people, this wine is brewed to welcome the annual Eid al-Adha festival during the dry season.

Zhu Beiguo listened and nodded, he had basically agreed with Zheng Fu's judgment---- it seems that our side must also take action, the first task is to warn the king of the east to prepare early, second, to stop the Xiyi - the Spanish interference in Sulu, cut off the connection between the prime minister and Xiyi, this action must also be just right, to attack decisively at a critical time, as for the specific method, you need to think of a more careful plan.

That evening, a top-secret telegram was sent from the Nicole indicating that only the Traveler was allowed to know about it, and the circumstances surrounding the possible palace coup in the Kingdom of Sulu in December.

Early the next morning, the Nicole received a telegram in the name of the Fire Pond Club, which suggested that armed forces should be sent to intervene directly in the Sulu country, and that the Spanish troop carriers should be intercepted at sea to land in the port of Jolo......
