Chapter 181 Big Deal
Qi Feng's harbor is the archipelago along the mouth of the Manraka Strait in addition to the port of Dinghai, that is, the Riau Islands outside the port of Singapore along the south of the Strait of Malacca to the northwest in later maps.
There are hundreds of islands in this Riau archipelago, and it is located in a strategic position to the east of the laneway blocking the Strait of Malacca, and the farthest distance is only a few hundred miles from Singapore, that is, Dinghai.
Of course, Qi Feng didn't know that this action of these pirates was originally acquiesced by King Ning himself, and of course the pirates dared to gather around here, as long as they didn't make too much of a fuss.
But looking at the situation in front of me now, it is obviously unlikely that the pirates will not be too public.
Hundreds of pirate ships have gathered here, making this little island a smoky miasma.
Li He looked at the situation here, and said with a frown on his immature face:
"Uncle, do we have to wait here all this time?"
Qi Feng stood on the bridge, carefully looked at the situation of these pirate ships, and replied:
"It depends on the situation, at least you have to stay here before you act. With so many pirate ships gathered here, the movement is too big, and the bigwigs must have to restrain everyone, and they won't let them forage for food before they move. ”
"I don't know who the target is this time, and how big the oil and water will be? Just look at the posture in front of you, if the harvest is a little smaller, I'm afraid the bigwigs will have to lose money. ”
Li He listened to it and thought about it, and it was almost the same.
He is not a newcomer now, he has been on a few similar trips, and he knows a little about the things on the sea.
This time, I paid a deposit of 3,000 taels of gold just for their ship, so the remuneration for other pirates would not be very small, so roughly calculated, if there is no harvest of hundreds of thousands of taels in the end of this trip, it will be regarded as a loss.
Hundreds of thousands of taels of gold? Is this gold?
This time it was much bigger and bigger than he Qi Feng had imagined. This time it's a real big scene. Rao is he Qi Feng claims to be well-informed, and this time he was a little confused.
What kind of trading can you buy hundreds of thousands of taels of gold at one time?
Except for robbing the Jinling treasury or the official treasury of various vassal kings, there is almost no other possibility!
That's gold!
Even if it is the treasury gold paid by the vassal king by the sea route, I am afraid that there will not be so much at one time!
So at this moment, even Qi Feng, Li He and the others were also excited, thinking that they finally didn't miss this big scene. He Qi Feng was really a little curious this time, what was the goal of this business, to be honest, he Qi Feng was lonely and unheard, with his experience and knowledge, how could he not imagine what kind of business could make such a profit?
There are so many pirates here this time, I'm afraid they are all thinking about this answer!
On this small island where everyone docked, a bamboo building was built along the bottom of the cliff on the island, hidden under the cliff, the terrain is steep, and if it weren't for people approaching, it would really be impossible to see.
Needless to say, this place is the nest that the old pirate Su Yanqing prepared here back then, I have to say that it was very good, but this operation, so many people came, and many of them were mixed, this time this place was exposed, and it was obviously impossible to use it in the future.
One of the big guys who came this time, Guan Sanye of Changming Reef, looked at it and felt a little sorry for Lao Su:
"Lao Su, you are still a thief, you have left such a good place a long time ago, won't you use it after this time?"
As soon as Lao Su mentioned this, his face was full of bad luck,
"Don't want it, don't want it, it's so close to Dinghai, King Ning Sailor only needs to send a boat to find it for a little while, where can it be used again."
To be honest, how can Lao Su not feel distressed.
Although there are many islands in the Riau Islands, there are really not many with good harbor conditions, and they are pirates, so there are very few such options.
If it weren't for the big deal this time, Lao Su would never have given up this island.
As a result, now that he has let him out, this person is noisy in front of him again, which makes people feel angry.
Guan Sanye looked left and right, still full of reluctance,
"Such a good land, there is no need to abandon it, as long as the brothers start to clean, they will hide back and stay for a year or two, maybe they can come back, and they don't necessarily have to give up."
As soon as I heard this, I was talking about cool words, and I could come back when the time came, how could it be possible? There are so many people who come this time, and there is no shortage of pirates who fish in troubled waters.
At that time, as long as Ning Wang Shuishi checks a little, he will be able to serve this island immediately, and he still wants to keep it, it is a dream.
"Alright, alright, stop talking about this island and get down to business! Lao Su, now that everyone is here, you should always tell who the target is this time! ”
As soon as he said this, the house was immediately silent, and all the bigwigs in the house looked at Su Yanqing at the same time, with a pair of eyes, either fierce or dazed, Su Yanqing, this old guy, had paid so much in the early stage, it wouldn't be shaking this group of people, right?
Of course, this is impossible, even if he Su Yanqing is a big man on the sea, and his prestige is extremely high, he will never dare to shake so many people at the same time, this group of people are all pirates.
Su Yanqing licked her lips under the eyes of everyone, and said:
"This time our goal is a fleet ......"
…………………………………………
The real target of the pirates, Li Zhe is still walking in the Strait of Manraka, not far from Dinghai, after setting sail from Banda Aceh, there is no stop on this way, only occasionally approaching the shore to correct the hydrology.
Ahead is Dinghai, the largest port in the entire South Seas, known as a more majestic and magnificent port than Mengzhou Port, and everyone on the Tianzhu fleet has been looking forward to it for a long time.
The legend of Dinghai Port is quite rich, eating, wearing, playing, customs and folk customs are very different from Tianzhu, not to mention anything else, just say that the Orchid Street in Dinghai Port, that is the only overseas rumor that can be comparable to the Jinling Huai River in the gold cave. It is said that the goods in it are all kinds of characters, and many of them are characters that you can never see on the side.
The people on the boat are all important people in each family, which is not pretentious, and finally came to this Dinghai for a trip, if you haven't even been to Orchid Street, wouldn't it be a fall to the name of Tianzhu people.
There have been several groups of people on the boat, secretly connected in tandem, and they are going to go to Orchid Street to see it.
As for Li Zhe and others, as the leader of the envoy group, and the envoy who traveled on behalf of King An's royal family, plus the quasi-husband of Princess Regent Zhu today, when they arrived in Dinghai, they would definitely have to visit King Ning.
I don't know what his attitude towards her, the princess, is to succeed to the throne.
