Chapter 349: Killing the Pig

"This, this can't be!"

Gao Wenlu screamed like a breakdown.

And in a very exaggerated posture, he grabbed his hair with both hands.

Yang Dudu was not interested in paying attention to him.

At present, the truth is revealed, and some people deliberately take advantage of the language barrier to lure the Dutch to come over and lure Li Shuyuan to meet at the same time, and finally make the Dutch believe in the authenticity of this scam, and then they guess that they will stop it, so that the Dutch will start a war with themselves because of this......

To put it bluntly, it is to borrow a knife to kill.

And who this person is is easy to find, and whoever takes the Dutch to see Li Shuyuan is the mastermind.

One of the masterminds.

He couldn't do it alone.

Because there must be Li Dan's people in this, only Li Dan's people can contact the Dutch, that is to say, there are also Ming smuggling groups such as the Wa Kingdom, and these guys are forced to come up with such a trick by his tax collection.

This is not an exaggeration, originally because the Battle of Penghu in history was unable to communicate with the Dutch, the governor of Fujian, Nan Juyi, sent someone to find Li Dan, and Li Dan sent Zheng Zhilong to act as a translator, and finally let Zheng Zhilong catch up with the Dutch. As for the use of language barriers, two-headed deception is not worth mentioning to these maritime merchants at all, isn't the Korean War a two-headed deception by Shen Weijing? The Dutch did not understand Chinese, and neither did the Chinese officials, and it was impossible for Li Shuyuan to even tell the difference between the Dutch and the Portuguese, who came to the door with a generous gift, and the rest was not a casual interpreter.

Governor Yang walked directly to the artillery deck, and the Dutch looked at him with trepidation.

Gao Wenlu followed out.

"Take your people, first anchor on Boliao Island and then land, this matter really cannot be said to be entirely your responsibility, as for your use of force to confront the responsibility of Lei Yoz, he has been executed by me, and the rest will stay on Boliao Island for the time being to be disposed of.

However, you are not allowed to leave without permission.

You can go to Tuen Mun to buy food for your daily needs.

But don't set foot anywhere else.

I will send soldiers to Boliao Island to take care of it, as for you want to trade directly with the Ming Dynasty, I will play this together, and in the end it is up to His Majesty the Emperor to decide, including how to deal with you, in short, before His Majesty's will arrives, you must live on Boliao Island, and if you dare to leave without permission, it will be regarded as an escape, and my warship will sink you.

But you don't need to worry, His Majesty the Emperor is very open-minded, and in the end you will have to pay a fine and then you will be released, but you first need to write a letter to His Majesty the Emperor. In addition, I will contribute some gold and silver to His Majesty the Emperor, first prepare 100,000 ducats, and then prepare 100,000 to me, and the ministers of the court also need someone to speak for you.

You all know that.

In the petition you may ask Your Majesty that you will be allowed to trade, and I will translate it into our language for you.

As for the place of residence......"

Yang Xin looked at the battlefield on the sea behind.

By this time the order had been given to the flagship, and the Dutch had their own flag signal, although it was impossible to speak the real flag language, but at this time all parties at sea had similar means of communication.

The armed merchant ships that were still moving forward over Lamma Island were slowing down, but they didn't know more details, and they had already lowered their boats and came over to ask, as for this flagship, it had actually sunk on Lamma Island, after all, the water here was not deep, and it would sink if it sank a little. The large battleship behind was approaching, the Dutch on the deck were shouting to the other side, as for the main battlefield in the distance, it was not possible to get orders for a short time, especially the battlefield on the cruiser's side, which was actually still fiercely fighting, and with Yang Xin's eyesight, he could see that a Dutch armed merchant ship had sunk.

And those centipede ships are back.

"Let your men board each of these ships and go to the battlefield to inform each ship of a truce."

Yang Xin said.

Gao Wenlu silently arranged for people to board the centipede ships, and then these centipede ships would quickly rush to the battlefield to inform the ships of the truce.

The Dutch did not dare to fight either.

At present, it is obvious that the Ming army has the advantage, and even if they can escape, most of them are wounded, in this case, it is difficult to guarantee that the Portuguese will not take the opportunity to attack, in the end their real enemy is not the Ming, they are actually more willing to obtain legal trade rights.

"As for the place where you want to live, I'm afraid this is not very easy to do, the Portuguese are in a special situation, in fact, they bribed local officials back then, and lived without the knowledge of His Majesty the Emperor, and then they were quite deferential, and His Majesty the Emperor allowed them to continue to live. But I can help you try to mention it, after all, you are indeed too far from Pattani to here, in short, I have no ill will towards you, I am a pro-trade, of course, you have to pay taxes honestly. ”

Yang Xin said.

That's what he bought Hong Kong Island for.

The Portuguese on one side, the Dutch on the other, and the two are still mortal enemies, just like a rabbit selling arms to a stupid big wood and a lion, and the price can be operated later.

As for the expulsion of the Dutch......

Joke!

Who will expel the man who delivers the money to the door?

The Dutch East India Company imported millions of taels of silver into the Ming every year, and although these guys were different from the Spaniards who guarded the silver mines, they controlled the spice production areas, and they could earn silver from the Japanese and send it to the Ming Dynasty. Similarly, in the past, when there was only one agent in Portugal, it was difficult for Daming's overseas trade to control prices, but with the Netherlands as a competitor, it was easy to manage.

They would not ally with the Portuguese, and the two families were completely at odds at sea.

"Your Excellency, if we had known this, why should we bother like this."

Gao Wenlu said excitedly.

"You are too stupid, if you want to trade directly to Tianjin, I will manage the customs there in Tianjin, and all merchants are welcome, you have already sailed to Hirado, and it will only be a few days to get there. As long as you ask for trade, I will welcome it, why should you be deceived by those pirates, and now that it is like this, we have both suffered a lot of losses.

But you have to compensate for my losses.

My lost ships, dead and wounded soldiers, this is calculated in the end, and you must pay compensation. ”

Yang Xin said.

The Dutch carried silver on their ships.

Even if it carried no silver and spices, the bottom of the ship was a pile of large wooden crates of silver, and although it was not as rich as the Portuguese, a million silver ducats were always available.

This has to be squeezed out at least halfway.

As for their ships, they don't need them, after all, they still have to trade, and Daming's goods still need to be transported by these ships, and these ships are worth nothing more than some oak, but he has already hoarded a bunch of oak wood in the past few years, and it is only the first batch of dry ones next year that can be used. Other than that, these ships were really of little value, and in terms of coastal use they were even inferior to his cruisers, which were of little interest to him.

"Your Excellency the Governor, can you hurry up, after all, winter will come soon."

Gao Wenlu said cautiously.

"This is no problem, it will only be half a month at most, you can rest assured that you can wait, I will definitely give you the result in half a month."

Yang Xin said.

As for the result, it is not up to him to decide.

Whether it is the apocalypse or the nine thousand years old, even the old guys in the cabinet will definitely have to listen to him in this kind of matter, and when the time comes, it will be nothing more than the Dutch to send the contributions, and the points that are actually given to the nine thousand years old, and then the compensation from Yang Dudu will be in hand, and the rest will be for them to purchase the goods themselves. Then the Apocalypse decreed that the Dutch could live on Hong Kong Island in the future, so that he could collect rent every year, less in the first year, and collect 10,000 yuan first, and the Dutch could build their own houses and repair the port by themselves, and then raise the rent to 50,000 yuan when they were all done.

What the?

A house that they built themselves?

Do you understand what land ownership is? Hong Kong Island belongs to Yang Dudu's sister, and the houses built by the Dutch are not built in the air, they have to walk on the land of Yang Dudu's sister, and the water they drink is Yang Dudu's sister's.

Collecting rent is a matter of course.

Well, that's how Yang Dudu planned it.

Gao Wenlu didn't know that this guy was sharpening his knife and planning to cut his own flesh.

Next, as the centipede ships sailed into the battlefield at full speed, informing the warships with the orders of Yang Dudu and Gao Wenlu respectively, the cannon fire on the battlefield gradually ended, and one by one the Dutch armed merchant ships raised the white flag and went to Boliao Island under the escort of the Ming warships. In fact, it is Lamma Island, at this time this small island is called Boliao Island, this name is said to have existed in the Tang Dynasty, after the British occupation because of the shape of a Y so it was called Lamma Island.

At this moment, on the top of a hill on the Kowloon Peninsula, a capable man in his fifties and sixties was silently watching the end of this battle......

"Li Gong, don't miss the opportunity!"

Li Chong, who was behind him, asked.

"Yes, most of Yang Xin's ships are injured, they have no strength to fight again, let's mobilize men and horses to directly raid Macao, and the Francos will take the opportunity to do it, which is enough to kill Yang Xin's men and horses, as long as these minions are gone, Yang Xin himself is not honestly going back to the north."

Yu Tengcang, who was behind him on the right, said.

"Li Gong, if Li Gong can get rid of Yang Xin, he wants officials to have officials and silver."

Zhang Pu said in the back.

The man had a sneer on his face.

"The old man is a businessman, he will only do a business that makes money, and he doesn't do a business that doesn't make money, the old man doesn't want to be an official, and the old man also has silver, and he doesn't want to be stupid enough to be a gun for others for this little profit!"

After speaking, he turned around and walked straight down the mountain, and the hundreds of men who guarded him immediately followed, and Li Chongwen and the others silently watched the dusty battlefield in the distance......

"This is Li Dan? Was frightened by Yang Xin? ”

Zhang Pu sneered.

Li Dan suddenly turned his head to look at him.

"I almost forgot, I still need a gift to see Yang Xin, Zhang Gongzi, you don't need the old man to go over and tie it up, right?"

The last real pirate king of the Ming Dynasty, who had been crisscrossing the sea for decades, said with a smile.
