The fourteenth year of Ming Chongzhen, April. Anping City, Jinjiang, Fujian, Zheng House.

The festive atmosphere in the air has not yet dissipated, and Zheng Zhilong's eldest son and the Dong family have married, which is a great joy for Zheng Zhilong Group.

Guests from all walks of life gathered, not only many cadres of the Zheng Group, but also civil and military officials in Fujian, wealthy families in coastal prefectures and counties, and even wealthy gentry in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Guangdong.

But all those who rely on the sea or rely on the sea to make a living, one by one, they came to Anping with generous gifts. Even if they look down on Zheng Zhilong, a pirate-born puppet Qiu Ba in their hearts, who dares not to give him face at this time?

Even, those who can walk into the Zheng family's mansion from the gate today are all people with heads and faces, and how many small maritime merchants outside have brought heavy gifts, but they can't enter the gate of the Zheng family!

After beating the Hongmaoyi [Holland] and eliminating his last maritime rival, Liu Xiang, his former sworn brother, Zheng Zhilong seized control of the entire southeast sea. The official position was also promoted to the chief military officer of Fujian, which is the overlord of the southeast coast!

Countless scholars can look down on Zheng Zhilong from the bottom of their hearts, but they can't ignore Zheng Zhilong's existence.

The land of Fujian is the Great Wall of the Zheng family, whether it is the maritime ships of the southeastern provinces, or the foreign Xiyi merchant ships, then one is counted as one, who dares not to pay protection fees to the Zheng family?

Those who are not allowed to order the flag of the Zheng family cannot come and go. Each ship earns 3,000 gold, and the annual income is 10 million, so as to enrich the enemy country and build the city of Anping.

Zheng Zhilong has soldiers and money, but he is not only the general army of Fujian on the official face, he is the real number one warlord in the southeastern provinces. If you are not angry, you can sweep through several provinces in the blink of an eye, and troubleshoot the powerful people in the entire southeast.

During the Ming Dynasty, when the country was peaceful and peaceful, a small county commander dared not to buy the face of the chief military officer, and a prefect could act as an uncle in front of the chief military officer. But not at this time and at that time?

Now it has been 14 years since Chongzhen, and the one who has soldiers in his hands is the uncle.

Last year, the Ming army and bandits fought in Sichuan and Shaanxi, Yang Sichang ordered Zuo Liangyu to intercept the peasant army, Zuo Liangyu stood by, Yang Sichang Jiu Zuo Liangyu, Zuo Liangyu still ignored it. Because Zuo Liangyu could not watch the battle, Zhang Xianzhong calmly went out of Sichuan to attack Xiangyang, and the peasant army won a great victory. Chongzhen only let Zuo Liangyu cut his post and make meritorious service to redeem himself. In fact, none of the hairs hurt him.

Not to mention the ancestor of Liaodong, this is a living example.

At this point, who would dare to ignore the Zheng family, the overlord of Fujian?

Zheng Zhilong, who was less than forty years old, looked at the full house of guests in front of him, and what he saw was actually the monstrous power of the Zheng family in the entire southeast.

So that while being happy, he got drunk with everyone.

At dawn the next day, when the person woke up again, no one knew that on this night, Zheng Zhilong's body had changed its core.

"Hahaha, hahaha......"

Chen Hua let out a sound that seemed to be laughing and crying. Let the guards guarding outside the square be nervous.

"Master, master......" Kenji Ono clenched the handle of the knife with one hand and shouted outside the door.

He is a confidant who has followed Zheng Zhilong for many years, and he is the servant who was sheltered by Zheng Zhilong in his early years, and he has been loyal for more than ten years, and Zheng Zhilong trusts him no less than his brother.

"Nothing, nothing!"

Zheng Zhilong's familiar voice came from the room, and there was an awkward question in this voice, but there was no nervousness. Ono Kenji and the others were still uneasy in their hearts, his mouth opened, and he was about to ask again, and a voice came out of the room again, "Go prepare water!" ”

I didn't say this to Kenji Ono. There were two crisp promises in the room, followed by the sound of shredded footsteps.

The door opened, and the familiar face of the maid in the room appeared in front of Kenji Ono.

Only Chen Hua was left in the room, watching a personal biography movie, roughly accepting Zheng Zhilong's memory, and also understanding Zheng Zhilong's people, at this time, the face hidden in the darkness still had a crying and laughing demeanor, he really won the jackpot.

Crossing ah, how many beautiful dreams that modern people only daydream come to him when he is on the verge of death. Is it because of that familiar river?

Chen Hua is no stranger to crossing at all. Not to mention the film and television dramas in recent years, just look at the online novels that have become more and more influential in society, isn't it a behemoth built on the basis of 'crossing'?

He is ...... now, and he is so lucky? It's 10,000 unthinkable. Such good luck, so if you don't drop a mountain of gold for yourself in your previous life, that bit of luck can't be compared to the time crossed, right?

The great joy made everyone else stunned. Fortunately, at night, he was lying on the boat, and there was time for him to control himself.

Clenching his fists, this feeling of strength and power was something he hadn't felt in a while.

From a dying patient to a strong man now, the huge surprise shattered all the accidents, shocks, and even the sadness of parting with parents and friends.

Not to mention the identity of the crossing.

Zheng Zhilong, who is not yet forty years old, is already Zheng Zhilong, the overlord of the East Asian seas. The father of Zheng Chenggong, whose surname is the country.

Chen Hua, who has a one-sided understanding of his father, combined with the memories in his mind, can feel the hardships and difficulties of Zheng Zhilong's early years. But that was the early years, not now. Now he has laid a big 'country'.

It is now the fourteenth year of Chongzhen, that is, in 1641, the Battle of Liuluo Bay was fought, the sea coachman who suffered a lot of losses softened, Liu Xiang also died, and the waters of Fujian and Taiwan have returned to tranquility.

Zheng Zhilong was not only in the prime of life, but had also cut off the heroes and incorporated the southeast sea forces into the local government system, and while gaining sea supremacy, he more legally controlled the operation of the east-west trade system.

In the twelfth year of Chongzhen, Japan closed itself off and withdrew from the competition in the East Asian seas; The Dutch reached a maritime navigation and trade agreement with Zheng, stipulating that Dutch trade with Japan must be transported to Taiwan through Zheng Zhilong, and then sold by the Dutch to Japan. Zheng Zhilong then became the sole power of the Oriental Ocean World.

The armed fleet under his command sailed between the southeast coast, Dayuan, Macao, Japan, Luzon and other parts of Southeast Asia, using his power and financial resources to expand maritime trade, and almost monopolized China's trade with overseas countries. It is a truly rich country, and the power is monstrous!

Chen Hua is enjoying his success, he is sitting back and enjoying his success.

Think about it, what kind of surprise is it for a sick and dying person to suddenly recover his health? Even if it's a decade older. And he also suddenly changed from a small citizen at the bottom of a society to a 'pillar of the court' of the court, rich and powerful, haha, that is really a death without regrets, isn't it?

He was not at all upset about the more than ten years that had passed.

Because Chen Hua doesn't believe that the most beautiful thing is the process of success, not the fruitful fruit!

And he enjoyed the fruit.

The only thing that seemed strange was the picture he saw before he crossed over, the long river hanging in his rental house, which was an antique Chinese painting that he bought last year. It's not worth much, and he can't afford it if it's really worth it. But I just like the river, and I think the painting is very imposing......

Soaking in the big bath tub, the fault is not that he waved his hand to call people down, there are delicate beauties to serve him, this corrupt feudal aristocratic life is too beautiful.

It was dawn, and Chen Hua, who was neatly dressed, came to his stepwife Yan. The latter is the daughter of Yan Siqi, and in the process of Zheng Zhilong's rise, a very important part is to take over Yan Siqi's business in the family, and there are naturally no twists and turns. So, Zheng Zhilong married Yan!

After Yan Siqi's family background switched to Zheng Zhilong in the past, many people are the backbone of the current Zheng Group. Therefore, the Yan family also has a very high status in the Zheng family, and to some extent plays the role of the lady of the main room.

And Zheng Chenggong's biological mother, Tagawa, can only be regarded as an outer room.

But it is also because the symbolic meaning of the Yan family is extraordinary, he has been married to Zheng Zhilong for more than ten years and has never given birth. There is no need to say much about the reasons in this.

is also for this reason, even though Zheng Zhilong married the Yan daughter as his wife in order to obtain Yan Siqi's inheritance, Tian Chuan, as Zheng Sen's biological mother and the mother of his eldest son, has always been very respectful.

On the side of Chen Hua and Yan's seats, a separate chair was set up, and no one sat there, who let the Japanese shogunate not let the Tagawa clan go, she was still in Japan. At the beginning, Zheng Zhilong sent someone to pick up their mother and son to come to the Central Plains, but the Tagawa clan was blocked by the shogunate from staying in Japan on the grounds that "Japanese women do not enter the Central Plains", and only the seven-year-old Zheng Chenggong was released. Tagawa and his second son, Nanaemon Tagawa, have remained in Japan until now.

Soon, Zheng Sen and Dong, who were newly married, came to visit. Chen Hua was not very excited in his heart, Zheng Sen had seen too much. He doesn't know how many times he has seen the fruit of the national surname in his memory, and it is difficult to have the worship and excitement of birds.

In front of outsiders, Zheng Zhilong is a feudal patriarch full of majesty, and Chen Hua painted the scoop according to the gourd in his memory, and his performance was not bad.

You just need to put your face on the board, this performance is too easy. The little fresh meat can do it perfectly.

Leaving his son and daughter-in-law to eat, Chen Hua sat on the top, his face was calm but his heart was very exciting.

Happy to be a father, happy to be a father, this is the real happy father?

He is a twenty-five-year-old young man, and in the blink of an eye, he has a seventeen-year-old eldest son and an eighteen-year-old eldest daughter-in-law. In two years, he will be a grandfather, and life is unpredictable, nothing more than this.

After the wedding, peace was restored to Anping City.

After the days of celebration have passed, it will be the usual tomorrow. If it is in history, these Zheng Group cadres who gathered in Anping because of Zheng Sen's wedding will inevitably leave one after another in the next few days and return to their original positions. continue to live a corrupt life of eating and waiting for death, extravagance and extravagance.

But Chen Hua has crossed over, Zheng Zhilong is different, and this kind of life will naturally be different.

"Go and tell them, stay a few days."

Zheng Zhibao, Zheng Hongkui, Zheng Zhiguan, the blood relatives of the Zheng family who followed Zheng Zhilong to fight hard back then, and then Zheng Cai and Zheng Tai, all received the news from Chen Hua's envoy. Coupled with Shi Fu, Shi Daxuan, Hong Xu, Gan Hui and other backbone figures with foreign surnames in the Zheng Group, the powerful figures of the entire Zheng Zhilong Group have all stopped.

In this way, when a large number of outsiders have left, they gather in one room.

Before the guests left, Zheng Zhilong didn't have time to 'talk to them', and this was Chen Hua's first appearance in the true sense, and it was his first step in this familiar and unfamiliar time and space.

It's not that he can break the cow as soon as he crosses, nor does it mean that he can perfectly integrate with Zheng Zhilong after watching a movie.

Chen Hua wants to sort out his thinking, it is now the end of the Ming Dynasty, it is the fourteenth year of Chongzhen, if the Ming Dynasty is like the historical trajectory, then the Central Plains will be finished in three years. Of course, he can't sit back and watch the Manchu Qing enter the customs and let Shenzhou sink. But let him go to the troubled waters of the Ming Dynasty, as long as he thinks about the history of the Ming Dynasty that he has 'seen' before, combined with the memory of Zheng Zhilong in his mind, Chen Hua really has a rush that he can't afford to wade through the troubled waters.

Moreover, the Ming Dynasty is rotten at home, and Zheng Zhilong's group is also a mess, which is also seriously corrupt and extravagant. Although he is a leader, the binding force of his generals is not like an arm's command.

He is really a warlord, the big warlords are followed by small warlords, and there are many mountains within the group. Zheng Zhilong really didn't knead all his strength together. And their sea strength is naturally very strong, but the land fighting is really pitiful.

Before the real test comes, such a short board is fatal!

Chen Hua will not learn from Zheng Zhilong in history, he wants to make a great career, so that he will not waste the time that God gave him. Therefore, he has to sort out his ideas, make a splash in his real first appearance, and completely convince the backbone of his own group at the rally! That's not something that can be done easily.

"Today, everyone is gathered in one room, and the arrangement is so solemn, because what Zhilong is discussing is very important. Therefore, it must not be too serious. Chen Huagao sat at the top of the conference hall and pointed outside.

Outside the council chamber, hundreds of sturdy black soldiers stood with their muskets held high.

The leader, Luis de Matos, is a sane and intelligent black man who is extremely trusted by Zheng Zhilong. The latter dominates the eastern seas, and has a large number of tan monotheistic believers from Macau and Manila in the service of him. They had their own company and were excellent musketeers. Zheng Zhilong used them to protect himself and serve in the army, and his trust in them was no less than that of the Japanese samurai under the command of Kenji Ono.

Even to a certain extent, these black soldiers are more trusted by Zheng Zhilong. Because there are many Japanese samurai under the command of Kenji Ono who are proficient in or have a rough understanding of Chinese, but what about the blacks outside? Only a handful of the 300 people were able to speak Chinese.

There was a solemnity in the conference hall, and everyone present had a solemn look.

Chen Hua was a little excited in his heart, just a few days ago, he was still a dying fart, or a grassroots who took risks to make a lot of money for his parents, but now he has become the leader of the dominant party. He has thousands of ships large and small, and more than 100,000 horses follow.

The fault is not that the need to perform Zheng Zhilong's 'acting skills' is really not high, and he has rehearsed this scene many times in his heart, so he really can't stand the shelf.

A blockbuster started ......, and if you want to be a blockbuster, you have to talk endlessly.

Chen Huakou said "wildly":

"I have been in the Ming Dynasty for more than 270 years, since Emperor Taizu opened up, after 17 generations [Ming Yingzong counted two generations]. Nowadays, there are grass inside, there are Tartars outside that are difficult to treat, and there are more frequent natural disasters and man-made disasters. ”

Chen Hua was speechless and endless, his words were deafening, and everyone present was stupid in an instant.

"Father!" Zheng Sen reacted and was the first to scream.
