One night was fragrant and romantic, and under the service of four Goan girls, Zhang Zhijie spent an unforgettable night, and the discomfort caused by the voyage was gone.

After Zhang Zhijie finished washing up in the morning, Alfonso had already come to the outside of the courtyard, and when he saw Zhang Zhijie coming out, Alfonso smiled and said: "Dear Governor of the Ming Dynasty, can these girls from Goa still satisfy you?" ”

Zhang Zhijie smiled: "Very good, the governor is very satisfied!" ”

Alfonso smiled and said, "That's good, then I'll rest assured!" I lack food and wine here, but there is no shortage of beautiful slave girls. If the Governor is interested, I can even bring you black slaves! ”

Zhang Zhijie couldn't help but be dumbfounded when he heard this, has Portugal started the black slave trade at this time? However, Zhang Zhijie's taste is not so heavy, although the Goan girl is a little darker, but she is considered a yellow race, and he is not interested in black people.

Zhang Zhijie hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No need, this black slave will be respectful!" ”

Alfonso laughed and said: "It seems that the Governor is prejudiced against black slaves, maybe the Governor has never seen black slaves, although most of the black slaves are ugly, but there are also beauties after seeing too much, just like black pearls!" ”

Zhang Zhijie still shook his head, and said in his heart that if you get a Western beauty, it's fine, and if you make a black beauty, you can't accept it.

Seeing that Zhang Zhijie always waved his hand and shook his head, Alfonso could only shrug his shoulders and said with a smile: "Okay, since that's the case, then invite the governor to breakfast!" ”

It's not very rich, but at least it's much better than eating on a boat. Alfonso's enthusiasm was a bit unexpected for Zhang Zhijie.

Sure enough, after eating, Alfonso opened his mouth and said with a smile: "Honorable Governor of the Ming Dynasty, you must be careful if you sail recently. Because I got the news that there have been Spaniards in the East lately! ”

Zhang Zhijie frowned and said, "Spaniards? What are the Spaniards coming for? ”

Alfonso smiled: "The East is beautiful and rich, and it is not surprising that the Spaniards have set their sights here!" ”

After Zhang Zhijie was silent for a while, he finally had an idea, in later generations, Spain once colonized the Philippines, which is now Luzon. But now the Spaniards don't seem to have captured Luzon yet.

No wonder there are Spaniards, Zhang Zhijie came up with an idea after groaning, since ancient times, this small country in the South Seas has been a subject country of China, and Luzon is no exception! When Zheng He went to the West, he was even more powerful and had a far-reaching impact. Instead of letting the Spaniards occupy Luzon, it is better to occupy Luzon yourself!

However, what makes people headache is that Luzon is a subject country of the Ming Dynasty, if he occupies Luzon in such a grand manner, not to mention what Emperor Zhengde has in mind, the court will definitely criticize him anyway!

Zhang Zhijie thought for a moment and said with a smile: "I didn't expect the Spaniards to come to the East, I hope they are just passers-by!" ”

Alfonso laughed and said: "I also think so, these Spaniards are predatory, fierce and brutal!" If the Doge encounters a Spaniard, be sure to strike a blow! Cut off their extravagant hopes of getting involved in the East! ”

The Spaniards are predatory, ferocious and brutal, and you grape skins are no better! Everybody's a! Zhang Zhijie smiled: "This is easy to say, easy to say!" ”

Alfonso said with some solemnity: "Your Excellency the Governor, you must not be careless, the fleet of the Spaniards is extremely powerful!" Stronger than the fleets of England and the Dutch! The only one who can compete with our Kingdom of Portugal today is Spain! ”

"So we must be highly vigilant against the Spaniards, we in Portugal are willing to join forces with the Ming Dynasty to completely cut off the idea of the Spaniards getting involved in the East!"

Zhang Zhidian nodded and said: "Yes, we are allies, of course we should unite to maintain peace and stability in the East!" ”

Alfonso listened happily and said: "Yes, for the peace and stability of the East!" ”

After figuring out Alfonso's plan, Zhang Zhijie didn't care, and refused Alfonso's accompaniment, and Zhang Zhijie wandered around Manraka City casually.

Although Manraka is also a lot more prosperous, it is far worse than the city of the Ming Dynasty. However, the fleet still has to trade here, so it can't leave for the time being.

Magnolia and Chang Yun followed closely behind Zhang Zhijie with their personal guards, and Chang Yun couldn't help but be very greedy when he looked at the piles of spices piled up in the sky. Spices are good things, and they are hard currency everywhere!

It's just a pity that now this place has been forcibly occupied by the Portuguese, Chang Yun looked at the surroundings and said with some pity: "My lord, are you really an ally with that Alfonso?" ”

Zhang Zhijie sneered when he heard this: "Allies are fart! Those who are not of my race will have different hearts, and sooner or later they will kill him! ”

Chang Yun couldn't help but be happy when he heard this, and said a little embarrassed: "My lord, I thought you were bought by those beautiful Goan girls!" ”

Zhang Zhijie laughed when he heard this: "A few Goan girls bought Bendu? If Ben Governor drove the Portuguese away, how many Goan girls did Ben Du want? ”

Chang Yun's eyes lit up immediately when he heard this, what the adults said was yes, when the adults eat meat, they can also drink some soup! It's very empty to go to sea, if you can raise a few female slaves overseas, wouldn't it be beautiful?

Chang Yun rubbed his hands excitedly and said, "My lord, when are we going to fight?" This time, the adults brought fifty warships, which is a bit small! ”

Zhang Zhijie shook his head when he heard this and said: "It's not okay now, if it's just Alfonso, it's cleaned up!" However, Portugal did not have only one fleet of Alfonso, their fleet added up to no less than a hundred ships! ”

"You have also experienced the combat power of these Western warships, and in the face of the fleet of hundreds of warships of the Portuguese, are you sure of victory?"

Chang Yun could only nod honestly when he heard this: "No!" ”

Zhang Zhijie smiled: "That's right! Don't look at the last time they lost money and spices, it was because they wanted to maintain Manraka and maintain their spice business! I'm afraid that after a defeat with us, other Western countries will take advantage of it. ”

"If we want to attack Manraka, it will cut off their financial route, and they will definitely gather their fleet and fight with us! In the final analysis, our strength is not strong, and now our fleet is getting stronger and stronger year by year, and sooner or later we will kill them! ”

As he was talking, Zhang Zhijie suddenly looked into the distance, and saw a ruin similar to a city in the distance, and couldn't help but wonder: "Where is what?" Is there another city? ”

Chang Yun smiled when he saw it: "My lord, that's the outer mansion!" It was the stronghold established by Zheng Gonggong's fleet back then, with warehouses and arsenals in it, and there were soldiers here, patrolling day and night, but unfortunately they have all become ruins! ”
