"Your Majesty, if the sails are full, the tilt of the hull will be greater, and the shaking will be intensified, I am afraid that the Queen Mother and the prince will not be able to stand it......" Boss Xu has made Wen Xiaoqi and Qi Zu toss and obey these days, and the two of them have all kinds of requirements every day, and I don't know how Hong Tao could get mixed with such two pieces of material that they don't understand, and they are messing around together. Manfan is no problem, but there is one thing he has to say to Hong Tao in advance.

"Yes, you can't sail full, don't listen to both of them. When you say this, I remember, I have to accompany my daughter-in-law and son first, you two can play by yourself here, I won't accompany you. Only then did Hong Tao remember that Senya and Saifei were still on the boat, and it seemed that his husband and father were really unqualified, and they forgot about them along the way.

It was still too late to repent, and the ship had just sailed 60 degrees east longitude, and was still a third of the way from the port of Poolon. In front of the island of Madagascar, Hong Tao decided to take Saifei to the island to see, the flora and fauna, the terrain and landforms here are different from Asia, since the child likes to paint, then go up to paint, paint enough and then go.

On the surface, Hong Tao is accompanying his wife and children to play, but in fact, the starting point is very dirty. He did this to make himself a little more balanced in his heart, after arriving in Cape Town, he had to go to work with Wen Xiaoqi and Qi Zu if he couldn't keep it, and he had to find time to go to Sun City, and there was still not much time to spend with his children.

"I'll let you both choose whether to go ashore with me, or I'll walk around with them when we get to Cape Town. Let me remind you, the island in front of you is only twice as big as Luzon, and the mainland of Cape Town is more than a hundred times larger than Luzon. Hong Tao said this to persuade Wen Xiaoqi and Qi Zu to go around the island with him, and he didn't have to pull them to play together, Hong Tao was sympathetic to the two of them who were too tired from work, guarding the empire, a country that lays eggs everywhere, and they haven't been anywhere for so many years.

It's good to do research, but you can't miss it all when it's time to enjoy life. Tell the two of them that they will definitely be disobedient, and they have to use a cheaper way to deal with cheap bones, which is called a key to open a lock.

Wen Xiaoqi and Qi Zu can indeed only open the two broken locks, whether they are voluntary or not, anyway, no one forced them with guns, so they obediently packed their bags and picked up their guns, and followed the expedition team to land.

In fact, people sometimes have to force a change of environment, and the two of them say that they don't like to play, but when they see colorful chameleons, finger monkeys with big palms, small leopard-like Falklands civets, and Cordyceps that can really eat small insects, they are more excited than Sai Fei. At this time, Hong Tao found that these two people can actually draw a very good sketch, no less than Sai Fei, who has learned to paint since childhood, but the style is more realistic.

At the end of August, the Xu family's big white boat slowly appeared outside the port of Cape Town, perhaps its livery was too distinctive, and it was discovered by the watchtower on Signal Hill from afar, and attracted the encirclement of two Jiao Shark-class patrol ships. After communicating with the flag for a long time, the other party believed that there was an old emperor of the empire on board. It seems that the news of Hong Tao's abdication has reached the port of Cape Town, but the emperor is going to self-exile, or everyone knows about it, but no one believes it.

"Don't squeeze out your tears, I don't think you're really loyal when you cry, and if you don't cry, you don't necessarily want to see me unlucky. But this time I'm going to compliment you, you seem to be a little thinner than last time. It's rare for you to listen to my advice once, so let's eat less and be more active in the future. "The new emperor and the old emperor have come to the port of Cape Town, and the Governor Martini must come forward to greet him. After a year and a half, Hong Tao found that Martini had actually lost weight! Of course, it's compared to his previous size.

"It's not that I'm hungry, I got a serious illness at the beginning of the year, I vomited and diarrhea for more than a month, and I almost couldn't see Your Majesty......" Martini really shed tears this time, and it can be seen that it is not pretending, and people who have walked around the ghost gate have a lot of good things in their eyes, and they are more likely to be emotional.

"That's really thanks to your flesh, if you put it on someone else, you will have to pull out the water. If you don't say I've forgotten, you'll be fifty this year, right? I remember you were two or three years older than me. Although he came back to life, Martini was obviously not as moisturized as before, the skin on his face had lost its luster, as if it was rusty, and his hair was a little gray, as if he had aged a lot all of a sudden.

"Your Majesty has a good memory, and he just turned fifty at the beginning of the year. This is His Royal Highness, right? Much better looking than you, hehehe...... The Queen Mother ...... "Without a few words, Saifei and Senya also got off the boat. As soon as he came to a strange place, Sai Fei involuntarily shrank behind Hong Tao, watching the black people on the dock walking around, very curious. Black people are not too rare in the Golden River Empire, but it is the first time that he has opened his eyes with so many black people.

"Your name is Uncle Mai, he is the governor of our empire, and he hugged you when he was a child. You must not remember, this is more than ten years. Lao Mai, if you have nothing to do today, go and sit in my manor, now that I have retired, there is no need to avoid suspicion. Watching Martini and himself grow old, and seeing Sai Fei grow up, Hong Tao was also a little emotional. At this time, if you can get some seafood to grill, prepare cold wine, and gather a table of peers to eat, drink, and talk about the mountains, it must be very feeling. Hong Tao knew that there was a place that could provide such a venue, the Imperial Village of Cixi.

"It's okay, it's okay, you're here for my biggest task. Saifei, do you want to ride your uncle's horse-drawn cart or just ride a big horse? "Martini and Hong Tao also have a feeling that they need to find a place to chat.

"No, let's take a boat over, I still have some goods on the ship that I don't want others to see that need to be handled, just pull them over together." Let's go, get on the boat, and go home! "Hong Tao is very pleased, it was so witty to make a Huangzhuang here at the beginning, and the technique of the three caves of the cunning rabbit must be used often, and there is no loss.

In stark contrast to Medini's aging, Cixi's radiant complexion. This guy has been in Cape Town for more than two years, and he has more smiles and no longer a terrible sinister smile; The voice is louder, and it is no longer the slightest sound like a poisonous snake; It seems that even the hair has turned black! He was three or four years older than Martini, but he looked about the same as himself, who was less than fifty.

"Come on, come on, stand up straight! Look to the left...... You don't know which side is left, dare to say that you forgot and didn't have dinner! "When the Xu family's ship docked at the small dock in Huangzhuang, Cixi was already sorting out the honor guard on the dock.

One only had to look at the wooden tower on the western hillside, and Hong Tao knew how he knew he was coming. Standing on this tower, you can definitely see the Cape Town Dockland, and you can see the flag clearly with a telescope. As for who is putting the flag on this side, Hong Tao didn't bother to ask. A person who was born as a spy leader, even if he was thrown to live in Antarctica, he would have to train a few penguins to be eyeliner, which is called instinct.

"Come, hug, express my gratitude to you, and by the way, it's an advance. See, this time I came with my family, and in the future, you will not only have to support me to eat, drink and have fun, but also have to support my wife and children. They don't work, they only spend money. After getting off the boat, Hong Tao opened his arms, hugged Cixi in his arms, and patted him on the back.

"You have a little strength, if you strangle your subordinates to death, you will have to do the work yourself." Cixi was a little flattered, in his impression, Emperor Hong didn't seem to hug men much, but women often hugged them.

"I don't need to introduce these two, they will follow me in the future, but they don't have to pay from you, they have public offices in shipyards and machine factories. There are more than a dozen women of the Li family on the boat, all of whom worship incense, can you guess what I brought them here for? Wen Xiaoqi and Qi Zu didn't need to be introduced, Cixi had already seen it, but the three of them just nodded to each other and didn't even say hello. Cixi's notoriety is difficult to change in this generation, and ordinary people can't get close to him.

"Spinning! Here's cotton, much better quality than Puerto Calamba. In the past, they were all sold cheaply to the Ministry of Commerce, and if we get dozens of looms, it is easy to make a difference! Cixi didn't even think about it, and she determined the answer. The Li family is only good at two things: walking on flat ground through mountains and mountains, and spinning and weaving cloth quickly and well! Since she is a woman of the Li family, what else can she do?

"We're really heroes! I just thought of spinning cloth here, and even the female workers on your side have prepared it for me. How many of them are there? How long does it take to learn Chinese? Hong Tao patted Cixi's shoulder and pointed with his chin at the girls standing in three rows in white calico shirts and shorts. As long as he glanced at their figures and skin color, Hong Tao understood that it was estimated that Cixi exchanged tobacco for female slaves from Japan.

"Two hundred and one, seventeen died on the way, and five more died in a month here, leaving one hundred and seventy-nine. They can all understand simple Chinese, and they can't speak well, give me another three months, and guarantee the plenum! If not, bury it in the tobacco field as fertilizer! In the last sentence, Cixi deliberately raised her voice, and turned her head at the Japanese slave girl next to her.

“…… The cigars you gave me didn't grow from the ground where the dead were buried! "How Cixi manages slaves, Hong Tao doesn't care, as long as he doesn't want to be brutal for the sake of brutality. Just let Cixi say this, the freshly lit cigar in her mouth suddenly became a little unpleasant.

"Hey, hey, hey...... Where can they be, they are all bought with money, where is there such an expensive fertilizer! I actually scared them, and at first I buried a few slaves who died of illness as if they had been beaten to death by me, and then dug them up and burned them in the middle of the night. You can rest assured that the special tobacco is made of whale offal and whale bones, and the slaves who work there must wash their hands and feet before entering, and they are the cleanest. Cixi knew that Hong Tao was wrong, and the emperor was disgusted by everything that felt unclean.

If you want to say why Cixi is hated, there are basically no friends, there is part of the nature of the work of the Ministry of Supervision, but it is not all. Yiyi has also been the Minister of Supervision for several years, and his popularity can't be said to be good, but he is not as stinky as Cixi. Hong Tao believes that the main reason is Cixi's habit of doing everything to the extreme, which has added countless troubles to himself.

You said that you deceived a slave, and you made it so realistic, you can do it. If one day a slave can't think of it, and secretly gives you a hoe, how unjust will you die. But Hong Tao needs this kind of person to help him deal with the dirty work, if Cixi doesn't do this kind of thing, then the person who is not treated is himself. In some ways, Hong Tao felt that Cixi and his own thinking were very consistent, and if he let himself do these things, he might be more extreme than him.

"You're so bad! Worse than me! Hahahaha...... Okay, don't stand here blowing the sea breeze, let's eat seafood barbecue at night, now go take a shower and change clothes, and go! After listening to Cixi's explanation, Hong Tao was relieved, it was really like things to gather people and groups. Among the few people around him who can still be called friends, there are basically no righteous men and gentlemen, and they and Cixi are the worst, most vicious and most righteous.
