Jiang Kui said: "The good ones have to fight desperately, this thing is really incomprehensible." ”

"They are like this, they are all Li Ye's subordinates." Zheng Shaolai also looked at the people on these lucky boats, trying to find a few familiar faces to come out...... After looking for a long time and not finding it, Zheng Shaolai said with some melancholy: "If you do this business, you will either go home after a few years, or you will definitely die at sea, wind and waves, diseases, and fighting at sea, it is really dangerous and dangerous, and if you say death, you will die, so most of the people who run the sea carry their heads in their hands, which is naturally a little fierce." ”

"Some?" Jiang Kui smiled and said, "I'm afraid these people are not ordinary sailors on sea ships, nor are they ordinary maritime merchant ships?" ”

"Well," Zheng Shaolai said, "They are Li Ye's henchmen, specializing in some secret things." ”

Jiang Kui realized this...... These ships should have just been plundered at sea, and they may have killed a lot of people, or they may have killed a lot of their own people, so these sailors all have fierce faces and want to fight if they don't agree with each other.

Li Dan's tens of thousands of subordinates should be ordinary sailors and maritime merchants, but there must be quite a lot of pirate-style sailors of this kind, if there are no these subordinates, why is he called a Chinese captain by Hongmaoyi? Why did the Japanese set aside an island for him, could it be that these people are good men and women?

At this time, a few more small boats came from the port, Zheng Shaolai ordered the sailors to cooperate with the people on these small boats, and together they connected the big boats with the small boats, and then the people on the small boats shouted the trumpet, and the people on several small boats began to paddle, and the oars rowed on the blue water, and people didn't feel anything on the big boats, but the hull of the boat began to move, and slowly walked towards the port.

"It's really bustling here." Wang Zhang and his partners discussed, and everyone felt that it was an eye-opener.

"There are also many ships outside Nanjing's Shuixi Gate, but most of them are sand boats, and there are few big ships, compared with here, after all, it is still a very far away feeling."

"Well, I heard that there are many galleons in Quanzhou Port, and many of them are big ships of the kind of Hongmaoyi."

"The big ship of Hongmaoyi is in Manila, they transport gold and spices from South America to Manila, our Ming ship transports tea, porcelain, leather goods and sugar over there, in exchange for their silver and special products, a shipload of porcelain passes, half a shipload of silver and half a shipload of goods back, and they make a lot of money."

"Well, if we can go over, we can compile a detailed port map and count the specific figures......

At this, everyone came to their senses, and some people took out small notebooks and hard pens and began to count the number and tonnage of the ships they saw, while Wang Zhang carefully observed the port and began to draw a brief map in his mind.

After the training of the General Staff Drawing Bureau, Wang Zhang and they were able to carry out simple drawing work, the level of drawing in this era was similar to that of the East and the West, and they all had their own unique skills...... The Drawing Bureau not only had Li Anping and Chinese cartographers, but also missionary draftsmen invited by Zhang Han from the Jingshi Nantang, and Wang Zhang and others already had a high level of drawing.

The port in front of me is very large, it feels very spacious from the outside and inside, the ships enter the port from the north to the south, the more you go inside, the more ships there are, countless small boats shuttle back and forth between the big ships, there are tow boats, there are also some small boats that send supplies, and more large ships are moored on the trestle in turn, unloading or loading.

From the east and west of the field of vision, the east side of the high mountains are more, are some 300 meters to 400 meters of hills, but stretch into a piece, you can't see the edge at a glance, the west of the mountain becomes low, a large number of dwellings in the mountains or flat land presented, the port area is also in the west side, there are more than a dozen trestle bridges alone.

There are dozens of large ships of more than 100 tons, more than 100 merchant ships of about 100 tons, and then hundreds of small ships of different sizes, the smallest of which can only carry a dozen sailors and a small amount of freshwater food, which should be a pure small transshipment or combat ship.

Wang Yan and others were drawing or recording, while Jiang Kui and Wen Zhongfa were only observing, and all the impressions were firmly imprinted in their minds.

Here, the harbor is so large and so many ships that it is almost dizzying.

The boat slowly moved forward, and slowly adjusted in front of a trestle, and finally succeeded in approaching.

The ship was loaded with cargo, and it looked extremely heavy, and by the time the ship came to shore, it had already crowded hundreds of people.

Some of them are Han Chinese with their hair in a bun, and some are Japanese people with shaved foreheads and only hair in a bun at the back of their heads.

There were also women holding baskets of different sizes with some boiled ingredients, mostly rice balls wrapped in seaweed, exuding aroma, and some snacks that might be fried fish, as well as boiled sea crabs, but Jiang Kui and the others preferred to eat large pieces of fatty meat and fresh vegetables, both of which were absent.

"Don't look for it." Zheng Shaolai was about to get off the boat, and said, "It's good to eat some rice balls and fish and shrimp!" The Japanese people don't eat much meat, and their nobles eat meat, but they don't eat much. They eat less, and they usually eat fish in small sections, otherwise why are they so short! ”

"It's really exotic, I really couldn't imagine this situation before I came."

Everyone climbed down the gangway, and the crowd came up more, and Zheng Shaolai's sailors began to shout vigorously, driving these people out of the way, these widows also knew that the ship's owner was going to go ashore to trade, and it might take a while to use manpower, so they dodged away on the side of the road, and their faces were all numb with a look of resignation, and most of those who looked cunning and were ready to negotiate and make money were Han people, and most of them were Han people.

"Dude, how many times has this been? In Xia Feng Jinke, on the side of the Japanese people for a long time, it is best to entrust any trade matters to the next one, and the interests of the brothers will not be harmed in the next, and the price negotiated must be the highest. ”

"Under Li Kuiqi, Brother Bao can make a lot of profits."

"In the ...... of Zheng Yiguan"

These brokers are not only Chinese, but also some people who speak half-baked Chinese, and even some Hongmaoyi have also embraced and demanded to become the economy of this merchant ship.

"It's really hilarious." Jiang Kui smiled at Zheng Shaolai and said, "Has this always been the case here?" ”

"Well, it always has been." Zheng Shaolai said: "We have a lot of hard goods this time, we don't need these second-class dealers, it's best to find Li Dan directly to get rid of the goods, but it's better to have a guide." ”

Zheng Shaolai said as he casually pointed at the economy that jumped in groups, and said with a smile: "It's you, come here." ”

He refers to a young man of less than twenty, who is tall among southerners, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, a dignified appearance, and although he does not have a beard and a beard, he looks old and dignified, giving people a sense of trust.

"Nikolai, you're in luck."

"Bless you Nikolai."

"Zheng Sang, you're really lucky......"

"Xiao Zheng is going on to live again, and I'm having a treat tonight."

A bunch of economic half-truths congratulated him around with this posterity, and there were also many people who called him a treat, and the posterity surnamed Zheng smiled and kept agreeing, not arrogant.

Jiang Kui noticed that this descendant spoke the Japanese language to the Japanese people, and spoke the Yi language to the Yi people, and it did not seem to be a Yi language, a variety of Yi languages switched back and forth, and even when talking to the Han people, he could speak Nanjing official dialect and Fujian dialect, Cantonese, and various dialects were also very fluent.

Wang Zhang whispered: "This surnamed Zheng is really a genius in linguistics, let's learn Mongolian and Jurchen languages hard enough." ”

Jiang Kuizan said: "The Japanese language seems to be similar to the Mongolian language, but the Yi language and various official dialects are really difficult to learn. ”

The Japanese language is indeed a kind of Altaic language, and it has something in common with Korean and Jurchen and Mongolian, but this surnamed Zheng has at least seven or eight languages in his mouth, and from the perspective of age, he is indeed a very talented person.

"What's your name?"

Zheng Shaolai looked at this descendant with a stern eye, although he called people here, but if it is not suitable, he can still replace people.

"Zaixia's surname is Zheng, his name is Zhilong, and his acquaintances are all called Zaixiaguan." Zheng Yiguan was very respectful, but his eyebrows were still full of confidence, and he didn't feel scared or nervous because of Zheng Shaolai's attitude.

"Where are you from?"

"Fujian Nan'an Shijing."

"What's your father's generation?"

"My father, Zheng Shaozu, is a Shaozi senior."

"I'm also from Ishii, and my name is Zheng Shaolai."

"My little nephew has seen my uncle."

They are all from Nan'an, and they are all surnamed Zheng, and after Zheng Shao finished speaking, Zheng Yiguan bowed his head.

"At a young age, are you here for the economy, or do you have a family with you?"

Zheng Shaolai calmly accepted Zheng Yiguan's worship, he is a Fujianese, went to the north to become a captain, and there were few Fujian subordinates with him, most of them were sailors in the northern Denglai area, just Zheng Yiguan worshiped him in the authentic Fujian Nan'an dialect, hearing the local accent, Zheng Shaolai had a little mixed feelings, and he was invisibly close to Zheng Yiguan.

"The little nephew was taken by his uncle Huang Cheng to study business here, and his younger brother Zheng Zhihu and Zheng Zhibao are all here. The little nephew came to be an economist when he had some free time, one is to see more of the world, practice the languages he learned by the way, and second, he can make some money and supplement some family. ”

Zheng Shaolai said with a smile: "It's strange that you are so calm at a young age, have you already married a family?" ”

"I'm already married." Zheng Yiguan showed a look of embarrassment on his face, and he said, "I married a widow." ”

Jiang Kui said: "I heard that the widow is amorous and docile, and you are very blessed, brother Yiguan." ”

Zheng Yiguan pursed his lips and smiled, but did not speak.

Zheng Shaolai said: "I have been to Hirado before, and I have been to Nanyang several times in the past few years, but this place is unfamiliar. This time we brought a lot of hard goods in a boat, can you take us to see Li Ye? ”

"Oh......" Zheng Yiguan groaned and said: "Don't hide it from my uncle, the little nephew treats Li Ye as a father, and he serves under him every day, so it is not difficult to introduce him." However, my stepfather has rarely seen people or stewards lately, and he is a little older, and now the eldest son is in charge of Hirado Island. ”――

Tomorrow Monday, everyone remember to vote.

Thank you Yutian Zuozuo.
