Heiichiro cautiously walked into the hall.

In the hall, a giant man who looked eight feet tall and seemed to have an eight-foot waistline, and a silk cloth could not suppress the fierceness on his body, and that was Heiichiro's master.

Opposite his host, there were two other guests, a middle-aged man, dressed in cotton clothes, and a teenager, standing behind the middle-aged man. Looking at it, it doesn't look like a servant, it seems to be a junior.

With his master's body shape, the ordinary figure will become devoid of any sense of existence. Heiichiro could immediately notice the two guests, and it was because of the way his host was standing, and the expression on his face.

"Ichiro, come, I've met Feng Dadong's house first." Heiichiro's owner beckoned to him and introduced him to the middle-aged man of medium stature beside him.

Before reacting, Heiichiro was startled at first.

His master was one of the best figures even among all the Great Song Dynasty maritime merchants. When I went to see the Khitan barbarians, I didn't bend my legs, and I hugged my shoulders and called me a brother.

But in front of this Feng Dadong, his waist pole seemed to have turned into a willow branch, shaky, soft, and flattering when he spoke.

If it was an ordinary servant, he might not be able to see the subtle flattery in his master's expression, but Heiichiro, who grew up in the court since he was a child, has seen a lot of similar expressions. And his master, sitting on a chair, did not even dare to lean back on it. How far from this status.

The guests were in front of him, and Heiichiro didn't dare to think about it, so he followed the rules and saluted the two guests.

Heiichiro's host introduced his details to the guests: "Ichiro was originally a companion in the Wa Kingdom, he could speak official language, and he was quick to do things. This time, the silk factory wanted to hire another person, so they recruited him. ”

From the Wa Kingdom to China, thousands of miles away from his hometown, Heiichiro was recruited to manage the women and children who were sold to the Great Song Dynasty by the Liao. In appearance, he can no longer see any difference between him and the Han people, and even his outfit has been changed to the appearance of the Han people, but his gestures are clearly the habits of the Japanese people.

Heiichiro got up, and saw Feng Dadong's eyes glancing at him, looked at it for a moment, and then said to his master, "It looks a little weaker." ”

"Fortunately, after coming back together for so many days, I didn't get used to it. If he gets sick, he'll really have a headache. Heiichiro's master accompanied the smiling face, and greeted the little guest behind Feng Dadong's house, "Let's sit down, sit down and talk." ”

This thirteen or fourteen, at most fifteen-year-old child, made Heiichiro's owner's waist bend even more, and the smile on his face became more flattering.

"It's okay, it doesn't hurt for a child to stand one more stop. His father asked me to take him out because he wanted to experience more and see more. Feng Dadong didn't seem to care.

But Hei Yilang is now, as long as the master of his family sees the little boy standing behind Feng Dadong's house, he becomes very uncomfortable, and the whole person is uneasy.

"Surname Ping? The peace of the peace? That's how the Japanese language is pronounced. Feng Dadong's eyes showed a curious look, and he used a somewhat weird Japanese pronunciation of the surname 'Ping', and after getting the nod from Heiichiro, he looked at Heiichiro with more curious eyes, "The surname Ping is the surname of the Wa Kingdom, it can't be the son of which family, right?" ”

"If you go back to the nobles, the villain is an ordinary family, the villain's father is a fish seller, there is no surname in the past, and the name given by his parents is Heiichiro, after coming to China, he followed the customs of the countryside, and took Ping as his surname."

"Well, it looks like I misunderstood."

Judging from the change in his expression, Heiichiro felt that Feng Dadong's family didn't believe his words, but he didn't ask.

The young man who followed Feng Dadong's family asked curiously, "Fourth Uncle, why did you misunderstand?"

Feng Dadong's family patiently explained: "In the customs of the Wa Kingdom, only nobles have surnames, and ordinary people only have a name. His flat surname is the same as your Han surname, and there have been many prime ministers and important ministers. ”

Heiichiro's owner smiled: "The little official doesn't know, if he is really a Hei family, he won't be here." ”

"That's right." Heiichiro said with his head bowed.

Heiichiro was accustomed to disguise, and it was not the slightest benefit to expose his background in front of the Chinese - they were merchants who traded with the Liao people - it was better to lower his origins, and then learn Chinese characters bit by bit through guò diligence, so that he would be valued.

After being asked a few words about his family history and the customs of the Japanese country, Heiichiro felt that he seemed to be satisfying the young man's curiosity, so he listened to his master's instructions, "Ichiro, you go down first." Later, let's go to the construction site together. ”

"No! The villain understands! ”

Heiichiro retreated lightly, and heard Feng Dadong's family say, "You can't see it when you stand still, but when you talk and move, you can immediately tell the difference." ”

"There is also a lot of difference between the etiquette of the Wa Kingdom and China." Heiichiro's owner said.

Out of the hall, Heiichiro didn't dare to go far. After a while, I will follow the host to the construction site, depending on the situation, the two guests may also go. He walked to the corner of the courtyard and stood quietly.

A little far away from the hall door, I couldn't hear the sound of talking in the hall, but across a courtyard wall, the voice from the opposite side came, two people, both of whom were men's voices.

Heiichiro had heard two voices, he was a Qingke raised by his master, he couldn't study, but he was still a scholar, and his master respected them very much.

“…… I heard that it was because the Son of Heaven was going to get married, so Ternan came down to buy silk. ”

"The official family's wedding date is less than two months, why do you want to buy silk now?"

"I don't know how many palace-made silks are in the treasury of the imperial court, and the tributes of Jiangnan over the years are also piled up in the inner treasury."

"It seems that the concubine said that it was too simple and not good-looking. It's not a big deal, and the Queen Mother doesn't want to refute her face. ”

"The people of Jiangnan are going to suffer, isn't this a big deal?"

"Except for Emperor Renzong, the Son of Heaven of this dynasty has no precedent for marrying after ascending the throne. And it's the first marriage, compared to the official family,"

"Wait, don't buy silk and buy when the time comes, and buy and increase taxes."

"Even if the concubine and the emperor want to raise taxes, the ministers will also stop them."

"The Queen Mother is also old, and the official family will have to be pro-government in two years, and no matter how upright the ministers are, they must also consider their families. In case the official family holds a grudge, it's nothing now, and after a few years, revenge will be taken on the children and grandchildren, what are they working hard all their lives for? It's better to let the official family happily marry back the granddaughter of the old minister. ”

The voice on the other side was high-pitched, Heiichiro thought about it, and stood in the opposite corner. As a foreigner, he knew that most of the people in this courtyard were suspicious of him. So he is always careful, and when it comes to the current situation, he naturally tries not to misunderstand.

Far away from the noise on the opposite side, Heiichiro appeared, and in this courtyard, Jiang Tao could be heard.

The sound of the waves came from a very far distance, like the waves of the sea, and a little softer, like the mist on the Yangtze River.

The outline of the Yangtze River is absolutely unimaginable unless you see it with your own eyes. With a day's worth of water from the estuary, you can see that the color of the sea has changed from dark blue to yellow. Even after crossing the sea, the magnificence of the Yangtze River still shook Heiichiro's heart.

The Matsue River, which is next to this courtyard, is just a river that flows into the Yangtze River, and it is as wide as any river in Japan. The source of the Songjiang River, Taihu Lake, which covers an area of 800 miles, is many times larger than Lake Biwa.

When I think of it, Dongting, Poyang, Hongze, all lakes, are no less vast than Taihu Lake. China is so big that you can only feel it if you see it with your own eyes.

"Petty officials, watch their feet."

Heiichiro's owner and Feng Dadong's family didn't let Heiichiro wait too long, and soon went out together. Board the boat at the back door, the captain is at the helm, and the boatman rocks the oar, all the way to the construction site.

The disembarkation site is on a wharf on the east bank of the Yellow River, which is connected to the Songjiang River.

Heiichiro had heard that this was originally a wasteland, which had just been allocated by the government and given to his master and several other great proprietors—he did not know if this Feng Dadong was one of them—to build a Japanese workshop for women and children who had crossed the sea to live here.

In just half a month, the wall of the Waren Fang has not yet been built, but the railway that extends from the wharf to the Waren Fang has been laid, which is only more than half a mile long, but the materials for the construction of the Waren Fang are transported from the wharf to the construction site by guò railway.

Next to the construction site, on a small hill a little higher than the surrounding area, there is a grass hut. It has also just been repaired for people to live in.

However, it was almost noon, and the people who lived in the thatched huts were all helping on the construction site.

When the group walked over, they all knelt down.

When he came to China, Heiichiro asked them for their names and ages, and he registered them one by one. The youngest was ten years old, and the oldest was in his forties. Too small, too old, his owner and several other proprietors refused to buy it.

Despite being bought as a slave, Heiichiro was glad for his compatriots. Staying in the country will die sooner or later, and how many nobles were sent to the mines to mine, and they were dragged out and thrown away within two days.

I can eat such good food every day, the wolves and bears in the mountains are all bright and shiny, if it weren't for the Khitan barbarians who all like to shoot and hunt, they would have taken a bow and brought eagles and dogs into the mountain when they had nothing to do, and the beasts in the mountains would have come down the mountain to attack the village.

Heiichiro didn't have time to sigh anything, not to mention the gap between Japan and China, even with the Khitan, it was also a world away. His country has reigned supreme in its own world for too long, completely forgetting how cruel this world is.

When the Khitan barbarians came across the sea, the dream of the world's peace was completely shattered.

Every Khitan barbarian is equipped with iron armor that is stronger than the best armor of the general, and he holds a steel knife that cannot be compared to the Tang knife made by a famous craftsman.

In the past, Japan's Tang swords were bought by Chinese maritime merchants in large quantities, and at that time, Chinese craftsmen were ridiculed in China, and they couldn't even make good knives, so it was no wonder that they were oppressed by the Khitan barbarians.

Only in China...... In fact, before he arrived in China, Heiichiro saw how sharp the Chinese sword was.

On the ship, the sailors each had a steel knife, all of which could cut the finest Tang knife with one sword.

After the Khitan invasion, many of those warriors with noble family names went to sea to become pirates. They usually hid in the Seto Inland Sea, and when they saw a merchant ship coming, they rushed up together.

When the Dafeng returned to China from Jiezhen full of women and children, it was attacked by pirates, and more than 20 small sampans besieged it at one time.

Seven or eight samurai jumped up, each armed with a sword, and their skills were agile.

Several sailors recruited in their own country fled, wielding wooden oars, but the sticks with thick wrists were cut off at once, and the next knife was hacked to death on the deck.

Heiichiro, even in the court, rarely saw a samurai with such skill.

But when the Han sailors on the ship met him with their steel swords, they cut off the swords used by the samurai on the opposite side with a single sword.

It's just a brave and ruthless sailor, relying on the sharp steel sword in his hand, he fights with a samurai with high swordsmanship.

By the time the ship's owner had the tiger cannon hidden in the ship's hidden compartment removed, the samurai were completely defeated.

With a flash of fire, the Tiger Squat Cannon smashed dozens of old samurai on the bow of the ship to powder. The blood that flowed from their bodies stained the decks red.

At that moment, Heiichiro once again confirmed that if he wanted to restore the country, he could only find a way in the Great Song Dynasty.
