Through the monoculars, Putmans got a clear view of the situation on the shore. First, the general of the Ming Kingdom beat his own men, which made him very angry. But what happened next, he couldn't understand.

It stands to reason that both sides have made trouble to the point of beating people, and the conflict is very big! But later, it was loosened again, and it seemed that the conversation was okay. Even now, why did this Ming general come to his side alone, didn't he see the defensive posture on his side?

Under his bewildered gaze, several people went up to the deck one after another through the soft ladder. There was indeed a whip mark on Ai Bige's body, which showed that he was not wrong at all. But it seems that Ai Bige didn't care about this whip mark at all, but just accompanied him with a smiling face and introduced him: "This is the No. 1 general under the governor of the Ming Kingdom, General Liu!" ”

Then he introduced Putmans to Liu Guoneng, and then said with a little embarrassment: "I heard some rumors on the way, and I returned before I arrived in Fuzhou. Now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, I am ready to go back to Fuzhou to negotiate trade between our Holland and the Ming Kingdom. ”

He naturally explained in his own Chinese dialect and Putmans, which Liu Guoneng could not understand. However, this did not prevent him from observing the situation through his expression.

I saw that the leader of the red Yi seemed a little surprised, and asked the red-haired ghost who knew official dialect in a mumbled voice, and the two of them communicated for a while, as if they were explaining things. After a long while, I saw Ai Bige turn to look at Liu Guoneng and said, "General Liu, I have already explained, everything is a misunderstanding, it's okay, it's okay!" ”

Putmans smiled as well, nodding in agreement.

In fact, in the case of Liu Guoneng coming on the warship alone, he used practical actions to show that there was no malice on the side of the Ming Kingdom, otherwise, how could there be a reason for the supreme general to send himself into the tiger's den. Sometimes, it is difficult to communicate clearly about some things just by talking about them, but once you do them, everything is left unspoken.

After Liu Guoneng heard this, he glanced at Ma San, and then asked: "Ben will want to know, why did you do well before, but then you changed your mind, not only threatened the warships, but also wanted to drive the grain ships out of the dock?" ”

After hearing the words translated by Ai Bige, Putmans was a little embarrassed, he didn't want to say it, but on the side of the Ming Kingdom, the main generals were personally on their flagships, and they themselves released the greatest kindness. If you want to trade well with the Ming Kingdom, it is best not to leave any distrustful tails, so you have to answer: "There is a Ming State person who says that he is ...... by Ai Bige"

Speaking of this, he pointed to Abigor himself, and then continued: "Zhituo, I said that I found out that your Ming Kingdom wants to annihilate our Dutch fleet. He saw that we had come to trade with grain, and that we had suffered such injustice in good faith, and out of righteous indignation, he helped to report the news. He also said that if he didn't believe it, why couldn't our warships dock, why did the Ming army on the shore seem to be facing a great enemy, and said that the general would lead the troops to come, and when the reinforcements arrived, it was time to start......"

Liu Guo couldn't help but be surprised when he heard these words. This time, he immediately understood the emperor's intention to let him come over in person, and sure enough, there was a traitor who was obstructing him. If he didn't come, looking at the expression of the leader of Hongyi, he didn't seem to want to say it, probably he had made some promise to the traitor.

At this time, Ma San suddenly spoke: "I am Ma San, the little banner of Jinyi Wei, who knows this traitor?" ”

Upon hearing this, Ai Bige was taken aback, looking at Ma San, who didn't look amazing, and seemed a little hard to believe. He understands the official dialect of the Ming Dynasty, so he naturally understands the affairs of the Ming Kingdom. Jinyiwei was the emperor's pro-army and had great power in the Ming Kingdom. At this moment, he suddenly understood why that Liu Shenjun immediately changed his way of acting after this Jinyi Wei Xiaoqi bit his ear.

At this moment, he knew that he could offend General Liu, but he couldn't offend Jinyi Wei Xiaoqi either. Otherwise, even if the local people were willing to do business with the Dutch, this kind of emperor's pro-army would probably change everything if they slandered the emperor. To a certain extent, Jinyiwei does things on behalf of the emperor's attitude.

Thinking of this, he immediately introduced Putmans in his own Chinese dialect, and said what he thought of: "Judging from what happened just now, what this Jinyi Wei Xiaoqi showed was kindness to us Dutch. He said that as long as we follow the rules of the country, we don't have to worry about anything. Even if the governor of the Ming Kingdom was the same person as the previous governor, they were no bigger than the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom. With the endorsement of the emperor's people, we must have thought too much. ”

Speaking of this, he thought that he had actually asked Putmans about the warship's operation before, but Putmans made it clear at that time that he didn't want to say anything about the Ming Guoren who reported the news, because he had promised not to disclose the news at that time, so he continued: "This Jinyi Wei Xiaoqi asked that person just now, Your Excellency the Governor, that person obviously has the intention of sowing discord, and he is not a good person. When Jinyi Wei Xiaoqi asks, it is best to answer truthfully, even if he offends General Liu, he can't let this Jinyi Wei Xiaoqi have an opinion on us. Such a thing is a recognized thing on the side of the Ming Kingdom. ”

When Putmans heard this, he nodded without hesitation, and immediately replied, which was translated by Ebico: "I don't know that person, but he is very good at talking, and he looks like a businessman......

After describing it for a while, Ma San frowned when he heard it, and then asked again, "You might draw a portrait of him?" Sketch on it! ”

Liu Guoneng, who was on the side, was dominated by Ma San for communicating with these Hongyi, and he didn't complain at all. Because behind Ma San, standing is the emperor. He was sure that Ma San would never be able to say these words, especially these terms that he had heard for him, Ma San was saying at this time, it must be just paraphrasing the emperor's words.

Besides, for this kind of thing, I am not good at leading soldiers, and it is most suitable to hand it over to Jinyiwei.

Ai Bige was also very surprised by this Ma San, not only could he correctly say the name of the Netherlands, which was different from the name of the other Ming people, but also made a sketch at this time, obviously he seemed to be very familiar with things other than the Ming Dynasty.

He did not dare to slack off in front of such a discerning person, and immediately relayed Ma San's words to Putmans, and proposed to give a portrait. After getting Putmans' consent, he said with a smiling face: "Please wait, two adults, someone on the ship can sketch, and after a while, someone will draw it, our Governor said that you are rare to come, he has decided to entertain him, please do not refuse." ”

Between the words, I was a lot more enthusiastic, and I also remembered to entertain people.
