"What do you say? Ning County ordered a thorough investigation of smuggling and sea trade? ”

In the courtyard of the Liu family, Liu Haiqian, the patriarch of the Liu family, asked in surprise.

"Back to my lord, this is what Huang County Cheng sent to tell me, and I can't make a mistake."

Liu Haiqian shook his head solemnly, and paced in the yard with his hands behind his back.

After a long time, he suddenly stopped and asked again, "What else did Huang Xiancheng say?" ”

"Huang Xiancheng also asked someone to say, tell the lord not to go out of the goods recently, and now the Ning County Order is the three fires of the new official, and when his momentum passes, it is not too late for the master to go out again."

"This is all what Huang Xiancheng means?"

"Yes, the villain doesn't dare to deceive the master."

Liu Haiqian sneered and said, "This Ning County Commander still doesn't understand the local situation." As the saying goes, relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, relying on the sea to eat the sea, our Xiangshan County is on the edge of the sea, and it is not possible to farm the land without sea trade. ”

He waved his hand and said, "You don't have to mention this matter to others, the yamen official who delivered the letter will give a reward of ten taels of silver as usual." ”

"Yes."

The family was about to leave, and Liu Haiqian suddenly shouted: "Slow! ”

"What else does the master command?"

"Go and prepare a sedan chair for me, I'm going to the trench." (Note: Entrenchment, that is, the Ming Dynasty's name for Macao)

......

......

A fleet of three seagoing vessels appeared in the waters of Xiangshanao.

These ships were Daifuku ships, each with hundreds of seafarers on board.

The flag on the ship was a gold-on-black flag from the Governor's Palace, so it was not stopped when approaching Heiwan Harbor.

"Fucking cheer up Lao Tzu, and when I meet the Governor, I will honestly greet you."

A man covered in tendons reprimanded the seamen, and the sloppy seafarers saw him like a mouse seeing a cat, and they all rolled up one after another, and did not dare to slack off in the slightest.

"Mr. Han, we really made a lot of money from this vote, and your share is definitely indispensable."

The man, covered in tendons, changed his vicious face and saluted respectfully to a man in a Taoist robe.

"Don't worry, big boss, the contemptible people know what to say to the owner."

The big boss smiled, revealing a row of big yellow teeth.

"There's Mr. Lao Han."

At this time, the three ships had already closed their sails and sailed into the port one after another.

The Franc mercenaries on the turret all showed excited faces, pointing at the three lucky ships.

"Your Excellency the Governor, the Liu family's ship is back."

A Franc mercenary went to the governor's mansion to report, and Silva, the governor of the Franc Machine's trench realm, took a sip of tea and said unhurriedly: "According to the previous rules, we will take 30%. ”

The mercenary nodded, and turned away.

The three fortune boats have docked at the Heiwan Port wharf, the seafarers laid the long gangplank, the big boss was the first to jump down, followed by Mr. Han, and the rest of the seafarers also jumped off the ship one after another and came to the wharf long board.

"Hahaha, Master Feng, Mr. Han, you are finally back."

The one who spoke was a red-bearded Buddha Lang Ji man, and his Chinese language was very good, and it sounded no different from the native of the Ming Kingdom.

"Mr. Sanchez hasn't seen you for a long time."

Although he was far away, Liu Da Dang began to greet this Francophone warmly, just like an old friend who had not seen him for many years.

The red-bearded Franco rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "Master Feng, did you have a smooth trip to the sea?" ”

Feng trotted across the stack and had a warm bear hug with Sanchez.

"Hehe, fortunately, he did not disgrace his life, and he completed the task of the Liu family and the governor. We earned fifty thousand taels of silver for this vote. I also brought back a lot of spices and gemstones. ”

Sanchez squinted his eyes like a shrewd mouse.

"Only made 50,000 taels? Impossible, right? Feng Da took the family to Nanyang to sell high-quality silk, porcelain, and lacquerware, and it was not a problem to earn 100,000 taels. ”

Master Feng said with a look of embarrassment: "What Mr. Sanchez said is an ideal situation, but we have met Haikou this time." ”

That Sanchez's face changed drastically, and he frowned and said, "Haikou? Can you raise the official flag of the Governor's Palace? ”

"Of course, I ordered the little ones to raise the flag of the Governor's Palace. I thought that these pirates would leave on their own, but who would have thought that when they saw the raised flag with gold on a black background, they would pounce on us as if they had taken strong medicine......"

Feng Da Dang's description was colorful, and Sanchez couldn't help but get nervous.

"And then?"

"Naturally, it was a fierce battle, but fortunately we had more people and had the upper hand. But a lot of the silver was removed into the sea, and there were originally more than 100,000 taels, but in the end only 50,000 taels remained. ”

Master Feng said with pity.

The corners of Sanchez's mouth twitched, clearly not believing the story. But he couldn't openly deny the truth of the story, so he could only force a smile.

Fortunately, Mr. Han rushed over in time and took the initiative to accost: "We have already prepared Mr. Sanchez's share of the silver, and when the goods and silver are transported ashore, we will send someone to Mr. Sanchez's room." ”

Sanchez snorted, waved his hand again and again, and said, "No hurry, no hurry." ”

The group was led by Sánchez towards the Doge's Palace.

At this time, a banquet had been set up in the hall of the Governor's Palace, and Governor Silva was sitting at the top in full costume, and next to him was Liu Haiqian, the head of the Liu family.

Seeing Sanchez, Feng Da Boss and Mr. Han coming, Silva stood up and greeted him warmly.

Liu Haiqian hesitated for a moment and followed.

"Feng Nanfeng, you're finally back. Han Qi, you're back too! ”

Silva stepped forward and patted Master Feng and Mr. Han on the shoulder twice, and said with a smile: "The banquet has been prepared, let's come to the table." ”

Master Feng just shrugged his shoulders, but Mr. Han frowned. He resented Governor Silva's practice of calling him by name, but Governor Silva didn't seem to see anything wrong with it.

Out of politeness, he did not refuse Silva's invitation, but unconsciously stood away from Silva.

When everyone was seated, Silva clapped his hands, and immediately two columns of mermaids entered, both dressed in tulle, and their graceful curves were faintly visible.

Feng Da Dang's eyes widened, his eyes were fixed on the breasts and buttocks of these beauties, and he didn't want to move away for a moment.

Silva clapped his hands again, and the drums played loudly, and the atmosphere of the banquet was immediately set off.

"Master Feng, how much money did you make from going to sea this time?"

Liu Haiqian raised his wine glass and looked at Feng Nanfeng with a smile.

"Hehe, Liu Dongjia, this time I was unlucky to meet a Haikou when I went to the sea, nearly 100,000 taels of silver fell into the sea during the naval battle, and only 50,000 taels of silver were transported back this time. However, there are still many gems and spices, and the estimated value is also around 100,000 taels. ”
