What Hong Tao couldn't figure out the most was the reaction of the Mongolian side, he went around the north, burned and looted along the way, and the Mongolian officials in several cities were tortured and killed by himself, and by the way, he killed a Mongolian nobleman, but they didn't react at all. It's been three months, and no matter how slow the message is, it's time to crawl the letter to it. But from the Southern Song Dynasty court, I didn't get any news, it's really evil!

To say that there is no reaction at all, it is not a matter of smuggling ships from the north, which can often be seen in the port of Mingzhou, and they are almost extinct. It is understandable to say that the other ports have been burned by themselves, and they have nowhere to go, but what about the ships in Dengzhou and Mizhou? Usually the smuggling boats in these two places come the most, but now there is no one to be seen. There is no need to ask anyone for this information, Luo Youde's business name and Cixi's Bureau of Statistics are doing this work, and there is information about this matter sent to Hong Tao for personal inspection every month, and the information of northern merchants is also a large piece. Therefore, the Mongolian side still reacted, at least they blocked the ports of Dengzhou and Mizhou, and no longer allowed ships to enter and exit freely.

It's good to have a reaction, whether it is the implementation of the sea ban or the arrangement of heavy guards, as long as there is a reaction, it means that you are not tossing in vain, and if you cause trouble to them, it is a success! As for what method the other party has taken, Hong Tao doesn't care. I really don't care, he just needs to implement it according to his own arrangement and plan, and the other party can react how he likes, and it has nothing to do with him, which is called crushing in strength. It's my share of beating you, you can't even fight back, do I still need to care about your reaction?

It is said that knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent will not be defeated in a hundred battles. That's when the strength is about the same. Let you drive a tank car. The other party didn't even have a bicycle. It doesn't matter if you know him or not, whether you know it or not, it's all a one-shot thing, what's the use of bothering about it. Now Hong Tao is a tank-like existence on the sea, and all the countries on land at this time are primitive people with wooden sticks in his eyes.

"Brother Luo, Lao Wen, I'll leave it to you here. I still have to say that it is better to be futile than to make no mistakes, not to be radical in everything, and it is best to maintain the status quo. In the summer, I will send a fleet to come again, dispose of Dengzhou and Mizhou, and by the way, see what else can be harmed, and I guess this year's war situation will be like this. To put it mildly, once the Mongols withdraw their troops, I am afraid that our status will be reduced a lot, and we will employ people to face forward instead of people to face backward. This is the consistent style of your official family. It's not that I slander him, it's that the group of important court officials around him forced him to do so. He can't do it if he wants to. The two of you make more friends with local officials, I think that Wu Qian and Wu Zhizhou are good people. He is currently preparing to repair the river embankment, you can help him with money and goods, and get him a Mingzhou merchant to raise funds or something, and he will be grateful in his heart. With his protection, at least the two of you will be safe, and at the slightest disturbance, you will immediately get on the boat and go to sea. Remember, if you want to see the glory of the Great Song Dynasty in the future, you must save your little life first, otherwise I will find someone else to cooperate with the Great Song Dynasty, it will definitely not be as suitable as the two of you, when the time comes, I will be annoyed and leave it alone, you two are the sinners of the Great Song Dynasty! "When the fleet is about to sail out of the Yongjiang estuary, Wen Nan and Luo Youde, who came to see them off, should also get off the ship and go back, the only thing Hong Tao is worried about is that the two of them were bewitched by others and behaved too aggressively, so it is a topic, when the turtle shrinks its head, wait and see what happens!

"Brother Hong, don't worry, I've thought it through for my brother over the years, and I've learned some of your tricks. There will be a car and ship in the warehouse at any time, and as long as I hear any unfavorable news, I will take Brother Wen on the ship and run away. Luo Youde's face is getting thicker and thicker, and he is not embarrassed at all when he talks about running away, but he still smiles.

"Don't worry, sir, Nan is not an impulsive person, everything will be done according to what Mr. says." Wen Nan heard Hong Tao's words, and his eyes turned red again. His husband is sometimes like his father, always worried about his personal safety, but he is older than him, and he can't express his gratitude with normal emotions, which is really panicking.

"By the way, there is one more thing I want to entrust, there is a perfume shop in Mingzhou called Zhuye Qing......" Seeing that Luo Youde and Wen Nan were about to get off the boat, Hong Tao remembered another thing that needed to be advised.

"Jiang Zhu means the Jiang family, right? I've been hearing this name almost every day these days, and I'm afraid there is no one in Mingzhou City who doesn't know her...... I don't have to guess such means, only Brother Hong, can you use it. Don't worry, if you don't say it, I won't treat her as an outsider......" Luo Youde didn't wait for Hong Tao to finish speaking, he interjected and helped Hong Tao say all the rest of the words, with a wicked smile on his face. At this time, Wen Nan tilted his head to the other side, pretending not to hear. Hong Tao is his husband, and as a student, it is obviously inappropriate to discuss the personal character of Mr. Hongtao, and it is not appropriate to listen to it.

Hong Zehu, this is the name of Hong Tao's second son, he is unlucky to have such a lazy father, and he even has to learn from his son's name. But Hong Tao doesn't think so, he thinks the name Hongze Lake is very good, and it is very traditional, with a strong Hong's style. Zehu, both words carry water, the Hong family likes water, and it can't be without water, so it's best to bring water not only on the surname, but also on the name.

Sai Fei, this is the name of Hong Tao's third son, and it is also the first child of Hong Tao and Senya. He followed his motherhood, which was taken by Hong Tao, just to appease Senya, who was far away from her hometown, and make her feel that she would have a head in her life in the future, and not to always treat herself as a foreigner.

Hong Fan, this is the name of Hong Tao's fourth daughter, she is the first child of Hong Tao and Bai Xiang, and it is also a symbol of the integration of the Tan family, the Han family and the Li people in Jinhe Bay. With this child, the Li people began to reassure and boldly immigrate to Jinhewan, and their resistance to the Han family was not so strong, at least on the surface, they could get along in harmony, after all, Hong Tao himself admitted that his ancestors were Han. Xiao Hongfan was just over a year old, and she was named the queen by the Li elders of Jinhewan, and she will officially become the leader of the Li people in Jinhewan after she reaches the age of fifteen. Of course, this leader is not officially recognized by the Golden River Bay system, she is only a symbol within a racial group.

Hong Tao also has an eldest daughter, Hong Salamander, who is almost six years old and has graduated from Jinhewan Kindergarten, so that Hong Tao will be sent to the navigation school in Ximaozhou to attend primary school, except for the winter and summer vacations every year, basically will not return to Jinhewan. For this problem, Bo Zhu and Bo Fu have quarreled with Hong Tao, they think that it is better to let their daughter and granddaughter go to such a far broken island and be helpless, it is better to put it at home and learn it by themselves, anyway, her father is the most learned person in Jinhewan, can't he teach his daughter well?

"Rules! It's called a rule! Since the rules have been set, then I have to take the lead in complying with them, otherwise why use the rules? Whoever breaks the rules will be the enemy of me and Jinhewan, big baby, old man, do you two want to be my enemy? Hong Tao hugged Bo Zhu to his lap in front of his father-in-law, pinched her face and answered about Hong Yu's schooling, and then the old man Bo Fu closed his eyes and turned his head away. There is nothing he can do about such a shameless son-in-law. Bo Zhu also made a big red face, and then was corrected by Hong Tao on the spot, except for humming and chirping, what daughter is not a daughter and I have forgotten for the time being.

This time when he returned to Jinhewan, Hong Tao didn't want to go far again within half a year, and the war in the Southern Song Dynasty was like this for the time being, the Mongolian army retreated, and he couldn't afford to fight with others on land. In this era, the war was very slow, and it was necessary to be busy for a long time just to raise grain and grass, but if it was not won, it would not be able to bring so many things back when retreating, so if the Mongol army wanted to launch a second round of attacks, it would definitely not be well prepared for half a year and a year.

Carl also came back from Cape Town, and his face was full of smugness when he talked about Martini, although he said that he didn't bully Lao Mai at all, but Hong Tao clearly saw that the string of dog's head gold that was originally hanging around Martini's neck had been hung around Carl's neck.

"This is what I exchanged for five craftsmen and Martini, it's mine!" Of course, Hong Tao couldn't tolerate the existence of this phenomenon of eating and taking cards, so he reached out and grabbed the necklace and wanted to confiscate it. Carl was not convinced, grabbed the necklace with both hands and did not want to give it, and wanted to quibble.

"The craftsman is also the property of Jinhe Bay, and you have no right to dispose of it yourself! If you are not convinced, then let's go to the Department of Justice and listen to what the legal experts have to say! "Hong Tao doesn't plan to rob his subordinates' finances on the dock, he wants to convince people with virtue!

"You'll give it to you, your family is a natural pirate! The salamander is robbing my son of snacks at school, you are here to grab my booty, your family is a robber! Carl bared his teeth and glared, his face was red, and finally took the initiative to take off the necklace and threw it into Hong Tao's arms. Attorney general? Go and don't go! The director there is Cixi's eldest brother, and their family is Hong Tao's lackey, and when they get there, they can't say that they are guilty of a crime, and a necklace alone will not be even.

"Hey, I said Lao Ka, business is business, private affairs are private affairs, you can't mix them together! Besides, let's not get involved in children's affairs, don't you say? Hong Tao checked the necklace very seriously, it was indeed Martini's string, and then he raised his hand and handed it to Sai Fei, who was riding on his neck. What kind of dog's head gold is not dog's head gold, he won't ask for this kind of thing, the main thing is that his son wants to play, so he must grab it! (To be continued.) )
