After more than four years of arduous construction, Yan Siqi finally opened up the situation in Bengang and Xingang.

Yan Siqi now has 10 large villages and two ports. He directly controls more than 3,000 households and has more than 10,000 people under his command.

Because Yan Siqi built a huge platform on the shore of the bay to serve as his command center. On the whole terrain, there are terraces in the bay, and outside the terraces is the bay.

Therefore, the maritime merchants who came and went called this place "Taiwan".

Taiwan has become synonymous with Yan Siqi's forces.

Taiwan's Yan Siqi is also a famous existence in Daming maritime business.

Although Yan Siqi's ships are relatively few in the Ming Dynasty, in terms of comprehensive strength, Yan Siqi is still the top three maritime merchants in the Ming Dynasty.

For the alliance with Zheng Yiguan, Yan Siqi also attaches great importance to it. The relationship between Yan Siqi and Zheng Yiguan has always been maintained very well.

In the past few years, if it weren't for Zheng Yiguan's overt and covert help, Taiwan would never have developed so fast.

At least, if there is no mediation from Zheng Yiguan, the relationship with the Dutch Hongmao Fan alone will consume a lot of Yan Siqi's energy.

Now that the bitterness has finally come, Li Dan, the biggest sea lord in the Ming Dynasty, has died.

As soon as Li Dan died, his power was instantly divided into several pieces. Among them, Zheng Yiguan, who is the most energetic and controlling official, has also officially become neighbors with Yan Siqi.

In this way, the relationship between Yan Siqi and Zheng Yiguan has also reached a turning point.

Whether it is an alliance or a confrontation will have two very different implications for the future of both sides.

And Zheng Yiguan is willing to formally form an alliance with Yan Siqi, which is very beneficial to both of them.

After the alliance, combining the forces of Yan Siqi and Zheng Yiguan, they have steadily jumped to the first place in Daming maritime business.

As long as Zheng Yiguan is used to win the various navigation rights left by Li Dan, then ......

A better tomorrow is already beckoning to Yan Siqi.

No one expected that something of joy and sorrow would happen at this time.

Yan Siqi, who was overjoyed, was drunk on the way to hunting, and he contracted typhoid fever and became ill in a few days. Now it is even more critically ill.

Seeing that Yan Siqi was critically ill, everyone in Taiwan was panicked. Even the No. 2 person, Yang Tiansheng, has already messed up.

In the drizzle, a guard ran to Yang Tiansheng's side: "Second master, Brother Yan called you." ”

"Brother Yan is awake?" Yang Tiansheng jumped up from the ground and asked as he rushed towards the room.

Yan Siqi did wake up.

Trying to open his eyes wide, Yan Siqi found that he was so tired of doing this action.

It seems that he really can't get by this time.

Looking at Yang Tiansheng, who had just rushed in, Yan Siqi clearly saw the water light from his face.

Alas, Yang Laoer's temperament is still a little weaker.

That's it, that's it, it's cheap Zheng Yiguan's kid.

Yan Siqi made the final decision.

Reluctantly raising his hand, Yan Siqi said with difficulty: "Second brother, send a message to call Zheng Yiguan." ”

"Looking for Zheng Yiguan?" Yang Tiansheng was stunned for a moment, "Big brother, you still have to recuperate, what's the matter, I'll talk about it when you get better." ”

"I, I'm afraid, I'm afraid it won't happen. The second child, call Zheng Yiguan, and our two families will be completely merged. Yan Siqi finished his words intermittently.

"What?" Yang was born like a lightning strike.

Brother Yan is going to fail, how can this be.

If there is no Brother Yan, what can Taiwan do? Yang Tiansheng was in a mess.

"Brother Yan, what did you say? You'll be fine. Looking at Yan Siqi's haggard appearance, Yang Tiansheng's heart was like a knife, and tears couldn't help but flow out again.

Seeing Yang Tiansheng's reaction, Yan Siqi sighed again in his heart. Yang Lao Er really can't afford this burden!

"Second brother, go, go and invite Zheng Yiguan to come. The two of us merged. Yan Siqi's voice became weaker and weaker, "I only hope that with Zheng Yiguan's support, Taiwan will not disperse." ”

In September of the fifth year of the Apocalypse, Yan Siqi, the founder of Taiwan and the king of Taiwan, died of illness.

According to Yan Siqi's will, Taiwan and Zheng Yiguan's forces were completely merged.

In this way, after getting two super gift packages from Li Dan and Yan Siqi one after another, Zheng Yiguan, the luckiest boy in Daming, became the number one force in Daming's maritime business.

September is the best time of year in the grasslands.

At this time, there is no shortage of rain, and the grass grows exceptionally lushly. With an adequate supply of food, cattle and sheep also grow exceptionally fast.

A rumor has finally been fermented on the grassland.

Wool can be sold for money!

When they first heard this rumor, the herdsmen felt that they had heard the biggest joke.

But as time went on, rumors grew, and the herders gradually realized that the wool might really be able to be sold for money.

For this, the Duoyanbu closest to the mouth of Xifeng is already convinced.

Wool can be sold for money. The herdsmen of the Duoyan tribe were crazy with excitement.

On the grasslands, even the poorest herders have 10 or 8 sheep in their homes. Wool like garbage can be sold for money, so no matter how much it is sold, it will be picked up for nothing, right?

With this in mind, the herders preferred to take the risk, either riding alone or in groups, rushing to the Xifengkou warehouse with bags of wool.

The situation opened up.

The old shopkeeper Zheng Ming was so happy that even the wrinkles on his face deepened a little.

As he wished, the Dragon Gate Inn finally opened up the situation. With the spread of wool for money, more and more herders came to the door.

The herdsmen sent wool in exchange for a small amount of daily necessities, and the news of exchanging the wool for money spread further to the grasslands.

Right now.

"What? I would never agree with that. The old shopkeeper Zheng Ming had a hideous face and roared loudly.

"You're going to die." Zheng Ming shouted at Zhang Yunyi.

"We don't need to take any risks at all. The fame of our Dragon Gate Inn has spread on the grassland. I can guarantee that before the snow falls at the latest, the Duoyan tribe and even the larger tribes of the Han tribe will send wool to the door. We don't need to send any more caravans at all. Zheng Ming persuaded Zhang Yunyi bitterly.

In Zheng Ming's opinion, Zhang Yunyi is simply crazy. Zhang Yunyi actually wanted to organize a large convoy to do business in Shubobu.

According to Zhang Yunyi's plan, 500 youth teams and 200 veterans of the multilateral army were used to escort 150 carriages to Shubobu to do business.

Bringing so many supplies to do business?

In the eyes of Zheng Ming, who is familiar with the grassland, it is not to do business, but to go to war.

There are so many supplies, isn't it intentional for people to rob them?

Do you really think that the tribes on the grassland are all good people? How can there be such a thing?

The tribes on the steppe did not rob the caravan, because the caravan did not bring much, and it did not arouse their greed.

It really arouses their greed, and they will turn into the fiercest horse thieves of the steppe at any time, and they will not even have a single hair left of you.

I really thought that the caravan that disappeared every year really encountered horse thieves, and it is estimated that most of the caravans encountered horse thieves incarnated by the steppe tribe.

It is more of the tribes that are at risk in the steppe.
