After Zhu Yousong finished speaking, he turned to Zou Yi and said, "Now that Songjiang Mansion is useless to us, it is better to go to our territory with you to take a look, and by the way, tell me about the current forces on the sea." ”

When a group of people from Fuwangfu came, they also brought some goods to pretend, and since they arrived in Jiangnan, they disposed of them on the spot. Dozens of people are non-businessmen and non-officials, but they seem to be the sons of large families, which is quite eye-catching.

Walking out of the restaurant, Zou Yi led him into a luxurious carriage, Zhang Yuanhua guarded him, scanning left and right. Yue Yingying didn't like the grievances in the carriage, so she volunteered to ride a horse to accompany her, Zhu Yousong knew her temperament, and she was not reluctant.

In the crowd, a young man in a green coat and a soap hat and short clothes, saw the mighty team here, glanced curiously, and saw the dark and thin Zhang Yuanhua, like a ghost, hurriedly hid in the crowd.

He walked quickly into the restaurant, found a single room on the top floor, and pushed the door in a panic.

Two beautiful women in the house were laughing and playing, and when they saw him breaking into the door, one of them had a gloomy face and reprimanded: "Hu Dongsheng, who let you in, get out of here!" ”

This woman has a slender figure, a neck like a crane, a snow-white and delicate goose egg face, eyebrows like willow leaves, and lips like Dantu. The skirt and butterfly dress show a heart on the chest, and a playful and casual falling ponytail. At this time, he was faintly angry, and his tender white cheeks were covered with a layer of red, which was even more attractive.

Hu Dongsheng didn't dare to look at it more, swallowed and spat, and said: "Madame, the villain was downstairs just now and saw the murderer of the eldest young master." ”

The beauty screamed, moved the lotus step lightly, and stepped forward and asked, "You mean, the murderer of Young Master Jing Xuan has come to Songjiang?" ”

It turned out that this woman was none other than Qian Qianyixinna's concubine Zhang Hatling. She had just married into the Qian Mansion and became the concubine of Qian Qianyi, the leader of Donglin, but she never thought that Qian Jingxuan, the only seedling of the Qian family, would die during the journey. The eldest woman of the Qian family has always relied on her son, and she is jealous and secretly fighting, and now she is even more dependent on her, saying that the broom star enters the door.

Qian Qianyi's backyard caught fire, and it was difficult to mediate, and the pain of losing a child had to let the new concubine come out for refuge. The concubine of the prefect of Songjiang was handed over by Zhang Hatling's handkerchief, and Liu Ru, who had nowhere to go, had to come to Songjiang to join his old friend.

Zhang Hatling calmed down and immediately calmed down, although he had no friendship with Qian Dashao, but he had to take care of this matter, otherwise as soon as Hu Dongsheng returned to the house, he would have no place in the Qian Mansion at all. She returned to her seat and whispered into the ear of another beautiful woman who had been frightened and had a round mouth.

"Ling'er, do you really want to care? He's the son of that slut, wouldn't it be better to die? ”

Zhang Hatling smiled bitterly, shook his head, and said, "You just have to do what I say." ”

The prefect's concubine reluctantly twisted her body, covered her face with a white gauze hat, brought a gust of incense to the downstairs, and returned to the mansion to ask the prefect to track down the origin of the group of people.

After a while, the little guy in the prefect's mansion came to report the news, Zhang Hatling was taken aback after hearing it, her beautiful face wrinkled, and she called Hu Dongsheng and said: "This matter is not trivial, I want to say to the master in person, let's go back to the house." ”

At this time, Zhu Yousong in the carriage didn't know that they had been targeted and investigated by others, and they were still discussing with Zou Yi leisurely.

Through Zou Yi's explanation, he has a preliminary understanding of the forces on the sea today, which is really complicated. The court, pirates, the Dutch, the Spaniards, and the Portuguese were friends and enemies, and they were also thieves. Zhu Yousong pondered for a while and said, "According to what you say, I think that the Dutch occupying Dongfan are in a very dangerous situation. I know this place in Dongfan, it's a good place, if only we could have it! ”

Dongfan is Taiwan, which has just fallen into the hands of the Dutch at this time, and their status and defense are still very immature, so they may not have no opportunities at this time.

Zou Yi pursed his lips, gasped, and said, "Lord Wang, we don't have a boat now, so don't be greedy, I'm afraid this matter will be as difficult as the sky." ”

Zhu Yousong ignored him, lifted the curtain, and the carriage had already left Songjiang Mansion and headed straight for the sea. Zhu Yousong said: "You can think of taking root in Quanzhou, it is very discerning, under the prosperity of Jiangsu and Zhejiang Province, it has long been firmly occupied, we can't get into the needle, the water can't splash in, and it is extremely difficult to make a difference."

Since the Tang Dynasty, Quanzhou has been a commercial port, and the local people have always relied on trade with Fanbang for a living. After the ban on the sea in the Ming Dynasty, these people were quite resistant to the imperial court, and they have been secretly shipping and running their old business. We must have a lot of opportunities here, and there are also many people who want to make a difference and are suffering from no way to join us. ”

Zou Yi was praised by him, and his heart was greatly excited, especially since this place was decided by himself and his eldest brother based on reason. According to the meaning of the eldest brother, it is in the area of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, steadily and steadily, slowly drawing. Zou Yi immediately vetoed this suggestion, the more stable the place, the fewer opportunities, especially with their identity, if they want to integrate into the local business circle, in the interests they have already divided, forcibly take a piece of the pie, the obstacle is not insignificant.

"Lord Wang, although this place occupies a favorable location, it is also a place surrounded by wolves. Everyone wants to intervene in one hand, and we are caught in it, I am afraid that we can only find one first, temporarily drag him to bless him, and then develop ourselves. ”

Zhu Yousong laughed and said: "Living below people is equivalent to life and death in the hands of others. Do you know why Liu Bei was a weaver and a mat seller during the Three Kingdoms period, but there were always heroes and heroes who were willing to defect to him and serve him, and finally be able to make a career? ”

Zou Yi shook his head, looking dazed.

Zhu Yousong continued: "Because he has always put himself at the height of a lord, even if he is desperate and defects to Liu Biao, he does not pretend to be subordinate, but is commensurate with brothers. Although we don't have a ship now, we just want to put up a name and recruit talents. Join forces and try our best to make them fight, so that we can profit from it.

Just like Chibi Sun Quan Cao Cao was very happy, but it was Liu Bei who finally owned Jingzhou. If we support one of them, then they will fight, we must be cannon fodder, and our already weak strength will be wiped out. Those small forces who are at a loss will not think of defecting to us, who will be their subordinates. ”

Lifting the curtain and looking at the sea that he was about to arrive, Zhu Yousong shouted proudly: "Lao Tzu doesn't have a boat, he wants to stir up wind and waves in the South China Sea!" ”
