Zheng Manor talked heavily, after a happy gathering during the day, at night, Zheng Zhilong, Zheng Zhihu and other brothers, as well as several henchmen under Zheng Zhilong's command, got together to discuss matters.

“…… The strength of Hongmen Dayuan Island has long exceeded your imagination, big brother, maybe you have heard a lot of rumors about Hongmen from the merchants, but only when you really live and experience it, can you understand where their strength lies......"

“…… A steam train that can carry more than 100 carriages and is made of steel, tirelessly moves day and night, from Bengang County on Dayuan Island to Keelung County, it only takes about a day and a night to arrive, big brother, can you imagine? ”

“…… You should have seen the steamer, that thing also operates by consuming coal like a train, and you don't have to watch God eat anymore, it is enough to gallop across the country. ”

……

With his two younger brothers who have lived on Dayuan Island for nearly ten years, he gave Zheng Zhilong a detailed explanation with his personal experience, and finally gave Zheng Zhilong a deeper understanding of the nightmare that he couldn't let go of in his heart.

“…… Big brother, this time Li Tianyang took the initiative to seek cooperation with you, it is really a good opportunity, an opportunity to change us. ”

"In the past, we were on Dayuan Island, and there was a division of labor and cooperation between Boss Yan and you, maybe we still had the possibility of competing with them, but now we have no chance at all."

"It's time to let go of hatred, we are all fighting on the rivers and lakes, and naturally we all understand the truth of not getting our shoes wet when we walk by the river, since we have lost, we accept it calmly, that is, my brother, I lost this leg, and I only think that I am not good at learning and art, and I can't complain about others."

Zheng Zhihu and Zheng Zhibao, although they haven't seen Zheng Zhilong for many years, but the friends of life and death who worked together at the beginning, as well as the kinship between their bloodlines, made them persuade Zheng Zhilong without scruples.

Officially, because they have lived in Dayuan Island for a long time and have seen the strong heritage and strength of Hongmen, Zheng Zhihu and they will persuade Zheng Zhilong from the bottom of their hearts, after all, only fools will do things such as eggs touching stones.

“……”

If anyone came to Zheng Zhilong to persuade him like this, I am afraid that Zheng Zhilong would think that they were lobbyists recruited by Hongmen, but with two brothers who had been separated for nearly ten years and had lived on Dayuan Island for so long, Zheng Zhilong was sure in his heart that most of what they said was sincere.

"Well, in fact, when I heard that you were still alive, I already hated Hongmen, and the deal they proposed was indeed a great opportunity for us who were in our own case."

"It's just that I've been waiting for an opportunity for them to show their sincerity, and now that the opportunity has come, I have already felt their sincerity, but without your persuasion, I decided to do a big job at night!"

"You know, I'm almost fifty years old now, half of the loess is buried to my neck, and if I don't work hard, the children and grandchildren under us really won't have a stable life."

Zheng Zhilong was quietly listening to Zheng Zhihu and the two of them explain what they had seen and heard on Dayuan Island, but now when they saw the two of them looking at themselves and waiting for their statement, they smiled heroically, as if this smile digested all the dissatisfaction and resentment that had accumulated in their hearts for many years, and gave Zheng Zhihu and them a more reassuring answer.

"However, before you came back this time, Hongmen had already told you the content of our cooperation?"

Zheng Zhilong asked quietly as he spoke.

"No, before leaving, Minister Gan Dabiao sent us, and when he sent us here, he only told us that we would cooperate with them next, but they didn't disclose what the specific cooperation was."

"Of course, Minister Gan also took the opportunity to let us persuade you to let go of your previous prejudices."

Zheng Zhihu shook his head, although he was very interested in the cooperation between Hongmen and the Flying Dragon Gang, but the two of them had just returned, and they didn't ask about such a big thing at night.

"Hmm!"

Zheng Zhilong nodded with satisfaction in his heart, not only expressing satisfaction with Hongmen's arrangement, but also agreeing with Zheng Zhihu's unconcealed answer.

"Then you want to know, what specific cooperation we have with them?"

Zheng Zhilong smiled meaningfully and asked what the two younger brothers really thought.

“……”

Zheng Zhihu and Zheng Zhibao glanced at each other, and then replied in unison: "Everything is arranged by the eldest brother, and if you need the help of the younger brothers, just say it!" ”

"Although we have retired in advance on Dayuan Island over the years, our previous efforts have not fallen behind at all!"

"Hahaha, good, good!"

"It deserves to be my brother Zheng Zhilong!"

"Then I'll tell you what big things we're going to do next!"

……

There was nothing to do all night, but the hall in the Zheng manor that belonged to Zheng Zhilong's reception was still shrouded in a little spark until dawn, and it wasn't until the next day after dawn that someone dragged his tired body out of it, scarlet but with blazing eyes.

After staying in the manor for more than half a month, Zheng Zhihu and his party, who originally came to meet Zheng Zhilong and settled down, embarked on the journey back under the surveillance of the Dutch and indigenous kingdom spies around the manor. It seems that after two or three days of getting along, Zheng Zhihu and his group of relatives are still not used to Zheng Zhilong's current life, or maybe they just came to visit their relatives from the beginning, but now their departure also made the spies who were monitoring not surprised.

Among them, there are also people who left with Zheng Zhihu and them, that is Zheng Zhihu's own biological son, who has been raised by Zheng Zhilong for all these years and waited for Zheng Haomin, and because of the appearance of his own father, he resigned to Zheng Zhilong and wanted to go to Zheng Zhihu to fulfill his filial piety.

Zheng Zhilong is also extremely reluctant to leave the two younger brothers and the long-cultivated successor Zheng Haomin, but since everyone has their own aspirations, as the elder brother, he already owes his two younger brothers, and after failing to keep them, he can only let them go.

Of course, as the eldest brother, he was also extremely generous with the departure of the two younger brothers, and he didn't know if the sea would have a chance to see him in the future, and he gave countless gifts and goods to the two younger brothers, almost emptying his own treasures for many years.

"Have a nice trip!"

"Big brother, you also take care of your health!!"

On the simple dock outside the manor, Zheng Zhilong and the others staged another touching parting of their loved ones.
