When Dong Qing mentioned that he had been helped by a nobleman in the capital, Xu Song, who was the leader, also changed his face, and then cautiously asked Dong Qing for confirmation: "What Dong Xian's nephew said is the one next to His Majesty?" ”

"Yes, Uncle Xu, you are not an outsider, I won't hide some things from you, you should have heard about the fact that the navy has been independent from the naval division recently when he is interested overseas, right?" Dong Qing also guessed that the person behind him was Li Zhang when he saw the relaxation, so he nodded, and then revealed a little news again.

"Navy...... The Navy turned out to be involved in this as well? Relax and suddenly got up when he heard Dong Qing's words, and looked at the other party with a shocked face, as an old fritter in a shopping mall, he naturally knew what it meant.

"Of course, this is not a small fight, the one who needs us maritime merchants to open the way for him, occupying this port is only the first step, as for the rest of the matter, I can't say more!" Dong Qing also said in moderation at this time, some things really can't be said too much, and only by hiding half of them can the other party have more imagination, even if there are any outrageous rumors in the future, it has nothing to do with him.

"Understood, old decay understood!" Xu Song's excited hands were trembling at this time, because the news revealed by Dong Qing was really shocking, not only because the person behind the other party was Li Zhang, but most importantly, this matter also involved the future direction of the imperial court.

The news had already been passed out, and after Dong Qing chatted with Xu Song for a few more gossips, he sent them away, and Xu Song also rushed back to his boat with an excited face at this time, but at this time the others were still a little unclear, and even some of them didn't understand Dong Qing's words before, let alone understand the later conversation between Dong Qing and Xu Song, but they didn't dare to ask more at that time.

"Uncle Xu, what dumb riddle were you and Dong Qing playing just now, why can't I understand it?" At this time, someone finally couldn't help asking, this person is the youngest businessman in the group, this person's name is Zhang Feng, his father has been friends with Xu Song for many years, so he can be regarded as Xu Song's nephew.

"A few years ago, the Dong family was wiped out, and only Dong Qing escaped, and this matter was done by a group of Hu merchants in Quanzhou, but some time ago, someone arrived in Quanzhou and our Guangzhou on the order of the imperial court, and you should know the fate of those Hu merchants later!" Xu Song smiled smugly at this time.

"Uncle Xu, are you talking about the Marquis of Dingbei?" Zhang Feng also reacted immediately when he heard this, and immediately shouted in shock, the heads of the Hu merchants in the coastal ports were all killed, and even a few fish that slipped through the net all escaped from the Great Song Dynasty, which made many maritime trades empty, so they also seized the time to seize it, and even Zhang Feng himself got a lot of benefits.

"Yes, Dong Qing must be the Dingbei Marquis behind him, and this Dingbei Marquis is His Majesty's cousin, the nephew of the Empress Dowager, he grew up with His Majesty since childhood, and his feelings are extremely deep, and what is even more rare is that Dingbei Hou is erudite and talented, even firearms were invented by him, and the money we use is someone else's industry, and now Dingbei Hou is interested in sea trade, how much impact do you think this will have on sea trade?" Xu Song was also excited again in the end, just thinking about the future development prospects of Haimao, he felt trembling from his soul.

"I know the influence of Dingbei Hou, but if a big man like him also joins Haimao, will he steal our business?" Zhang Feng's pattern is obviously not very big, and he is worried about this problem at this time.

"You, don't keep staring at your own one-third of an acre, in the eyes of a big man like Dingbei Hou, we are simply a group of small shrimps, and this bit of cannibalism in his hands is not eye-catching at all, when it comes to his kind of status, what he values is the interests of the entire imperial court overseas, didn't Dong Qing already say just now, the imperial court separated the navy from the naval division, which is related to maritime trade, you think about it, what kind of maritime trade needs to use our regular army of the Great Song Dynasty?" Xu Song said again in a serious tone at this time.

As soon as Xu Song's words came out, Zhang Feng and the others all showed contemplative expressions, especially Zhang Feng's last sentence, the Great Song Dynasty actually wanted to use the navy to join the maritime trade, such a big move, it would definitely not be like a businessman like them to buy east and west, after all, in addition to protecting the homeland and defending the country, the army has only one role left, that is, to expand the territory.

"Shopkeeper Xu, I have been to the north to do business, and I have also seen the fierce border army in the north, and this time when the 3,000 people under the shopkeeper Dong killed the natives, it was like chopping melons and vegetables, quite the style of the northern border army, do you say they are ......?"

"Silence! For us, the most important thing is that the tax here is less than half, if Dong Qing and they can gain a firm foothold here, the safety of crossing the strait in the future will also be guaranteed! Without waiting for the other party to speak, he was interrupted by Xu Song.

The person who spoke also reacted immediately at this time, and immediately claimed that it was, at this time they also returned to the dock, so they each returned to the boat, and at this time, some familiar businessmen also came to inquire about the news, after all, they were still very curious about Dong Qing, and soon the news that Xu Song's backer was Li Zhang also spread quickly.

With Li Zhang's big Buddha in charge, this made many people have a lot of confidence in Dong Qing's strength, especially many people also thought that if Gantuoli Port was controlled by their Song people, at least they would not have to grovel to the natives like before in the future, and in the end, they not only paid the money, but they couldn't even guarantee their safety, so for a while they at least began to support Dong Qing psychologically.

However, Dong Qing is not easy at this time, just like Xu Song said, it is easy to take down Gantuoli Port, but it is not easy to defend here, after all, this is the territory of the Nanyang natives, and the Buddha Death Kingdom also has a lot of strength, and when the news of the change of ownership of Gantuoli Port spreads, the Buddha Death Kingdom will definitely send reinforcements to come, so he also needs to discuss with Zhou Liang how to defend it.

It's just that what Dong Qing didn't expect was that Zhou Liang's idea of how to defend Gan Toli Port was too crazy, and even he felt that the other party was simply a madman, but Zhou Liang insisted on his decision, and bluntly said that he was in charge of the army, and Dong Qing had no right to command him how to fight, so Dong Qing had no choice but to threaten to report this matter, but Zhou Liang didn't care at all.
