"Teacher Wen!" Hong Tao was not calm immediately, he thought that Wen Nan had been imprisoned at this time, and was thinking about how to rescue him, but he actually came by boat, it seemed that he was acting as the emperor's messenger, could it be said that he had rebelled? It is very likely that the performance of the little navigator just now gave Hong Tao a deeper understanding of the thoughts of people in this era, and they will not live without the emperor!

It was indeed Wen Nan, who was standing at the bow of one of the sand boats, waving to Hong Tao's fleet. Seeing his outfit, Hong Tao was a little confused, Wen Nan was still wearing the uniform of Jinhewan, that is, a shirt and trousers with pockets, and leather slippers from Jinhewan on his feet. If he threw himself into the arms of the Southern Song Dynasty court again, shouldn't he change into a court dress, why is he still wearing such a strange costume? Hong Tao believes that there are only two explanations, the first is that Wennan did not rebel, and this possibility accounts for half of the possibility; The second is that Wen Nan is confusing himself and letting his guard down, and he plans to sneak attack his flagship.

"Let the Haibo go up to inspect and remind Captain Kong to pay attention to his own safety, Wen Nan can't be trusted!" Which of these two situations is more reliable, Hong Tao couldn't tell, so he pushed the danger to his subordinates very unjustly.

When the three large sand boats on the opposite side sailed to a distance of about a mile from Hong Tao's fleet, Hong Tao's fleet suddenly turned to the right, made an arc, and changed to sail north. However, a battleship in the middle of the fleet did not turn, it drove straight towards the three sand ships of the Southern Song Dynasty Naval Division, and when it got closer, it lowered its sails and slowed down, put down a small boat, and then raised its sails again, and began to turn. But it didn't go far. It's going around a body of water.

"Lao Kong is the one who has won my absolute knowledge...... Take a good look. What does it mean to be cautious? Captain Kong, this is called responsible! It not only completed the task I assigned, but also minimized the danger to his boatload of people. Any idea why he's going around in circles? "Today, Hong Tao got in touch with this little navigator, and he didn't give up after two fights, and he pulled people over for on-site assessment.

"Stay ...... Keep...... speed, can get out as soon as possible in case of situation. The headmaster said that if we can be more than 200 meters away from the enemy on the sea, we will be victors! "The little navigator was beaten twice. But they were not frightened, which has something to do with their growth environment. Hong Tao is very approachable whether he is in Jinhe Bay or Ximaozhou, and he likes to laugh, often makes all kinds of toys for children to play, and he also takes the lead in playing, so the children are not afraid of him. Even when they got to the boat and were scolded and beaten, the children were used to it. From the old sailors who followed Hong Tao to sea in the previous generation, the children have long known what the rules are on the Hong Tao boat, and there are almost no people who are not punished. Every captain has been tortured, not to mention ordinary sailors.

"Oops. I was right! No, I still have to beat you up, I thought you couldn't answer correctly, you were ready to fight, but you answered correctly, you call it deliberately embarrassing the principal, understand? It is disrespectful to the prefect and must be severely punished! "Hong Tao is so cheeky, it's all thick, and he also plays this game with a child who is still underage, and kicks other people's feet to relieve his anger, and then looks at the situation ahead.

After Kong Pei's Haibo turned around a few times, Wen Nan took a man wearing a red robe and a stiff-legged head (fu) into the Haibo's lifeboat and rowed towards the Haibo, which was still circling in the distance. After the Haibo picked up the two men, it stopped spinning around and turned around and headed towards the Golden River. The sand boats of the three Southern Song Dynasty sailors also lowered their sails and stayed in place to wait.

"Lao Wen, I've worked hard for you this time, but I see that you look good, is there any joy?" When Wen Nan climbed onto the deck of the Jinhe along the rigging, Hong Tao also reached out and pulled him, as for the guy in the back who was dressed like a groom's officer, Hong Tao ignored it and handed it over to the sailors to help.

"Sir, the student is not dishonoring in his mission, and Zheng Xiang is on the boat...... The student dared to ask the gentleman to move over. I know that Mr. has high aspirations, but as far as etiquette is concerned, the minister of a country comes by boat for a few days, and we should also treat him with courtesy. As soon as Wen Nan got on the boat, he first saluted Hong Tao, and then leaned over to Hong Tao and whispered a few words.

"Hey, hey, hey...... You, your temperament is still too straight, now it is not me and Zheng Qingzhi's personal relationship, but the first meeting between the two groups, and he has asked me. Do you know how to do business? It's called business! It is necessary to follow the rules of the business field. Whoever needs to take the initiative to find it, it's not that I don't follow the rules, but the rules have changed, and I have the final say! In addition, Lao Wen, you are dishonest to the teacher, Zheng Qing is not the only one on the boat over there, right? If you don't tell me the truth, I'll let the ship's cannon fire a few shots. Hong Tao felt that he hadn't heard Wen Nan's fly buzzing in his ears for a long time, not to mention, he thought about it when he couldn't hear it. This thing of people is Nima's cheap bones, leading and fighting backwards!

"Never! Don't make such jokes, sir...... I know that I can't hide it from Mr., the above is the emperor of my dynasty, and the official family personally came to see Mr., can't this sincerity make Mr. let go of his doubts? When Wen Nan heard that Hong Tao was going to open fire, his little face turned pale with fright, and he grabbed Hong Tao's arm, as if he could stop it.

"Alas...... Well, don't get on my ship, but don't get on theirs either, and we'll put a neutral ship between the two fleets. Lao Wen, don't treat me as a gentleman, I have never been, and I will not be able to become one in the future. For the sake of your face, I will temporarily put away the harmful heart, but the heart of guarding against people is indispensable, this is my biggest concession, it is a success, if it is not successful, I will order the fleet to set sail now, no more talking! Hong Tao sighed, but still made a concession. Since the emperors are here, it is definitely not appropriate for them to be too demanding, and this time they are not here to pretend to be forced, but to talk about cooperation, and they can't not do anything at all.

"But, where can I find a neutral ship?" Wen Nan knew Hong Tao's temper, his gentleman was a psychotic and could not be measured by ordinary people's standards, which he also declared to Zheng Qingyi on the way here, and tried his best to dissuade Zheng Qingzhi from letting the emperor go along. Why can't he say it, saying it is tantamount to betraying his teacher, even if others don't know, he himself will condemn himself for the rest of his life. But not to mention, he also knew how powerful the cannons on Hong Tao's ship were, if he really provoked Hong Tao, it would be a big question whether these important ministers in the Southern Song Dynasty, including the emperor himself, could see the sun tomorrow.

"It's easy to do! You go and signal the Hypo and ask him to get the ship over there. Remember, it's to come over, not to grab it, how can I please let Captain Kong figure it out by himself, I need this ship anyway! "Hong Tao has his own way, the mouth of the Qiantang River is an important waterway, the two fleets occupy most of the waterway in between, and the ships entering and leaving the Qiantang River can only slip away. Neutral ships are very easy to do, just find a larger one, look at it and don't be too broken, anyway, people are making money, give enough money, why not rent it and use it?

"Sir, this is the host and guest of the Great Song Dynasty Rite Department, Wei Zhongtian and Wei Langzhong, and the matter of the meeting has to be discussed by Wei Langzhong and Mr." Wen Nan saw that he couldn't say anything about Hong Tao himself, and suddenly remembered the groom official who had not said a word since he got on the boat, squinting his eyes and looking around.

"Wasn't it you before? Is he your successor? "Hong Tao's memory is not bad, he has heard of this official position, it was Wen Nan himself.

"It is impossible for the imperial court to wait for me to be a missing person, this time I returned to Lin'an, thanks to the kindness of the official family, and I did not blame me, and please don't be too ......embarrassed by Mr. Wennan is really in trouble this time, on the one hand, his motherland, colleagues, and on the other hand, the gentleman he admires, which side should he go, he can't figure it out for a while.

"Yes, you can rest and change your clothes in the cabin, you're all spoiled! Leave the matter to me here, it's useless for you to be there. Hong Tao couldn't bear to torture this poor man anymore, so let him be out of sight.

This Wei Langzhong is a native of Lin'an, and he speaks Jiangsu and Zhejiang very quickly, Hong Tao just chatted with him for a few words, and he regretted blowing Wen Nan away a little, he didn't understand it very well, he could only ask back and forth, and one sentence could be split several times. Fortunately, this Wei Langzhong is a good-tempered person, not impatient or impatient, he is a diplomat, he is a chronic person, no matter what Hong Tao says, as long as he does not insult the Southern Song Dynasty court, he can listen to it with a smile, and then say his opinion. The two men sprayed each other on the stern for more than half an hour, and finally agreed on the rules for meeting on a neutral vessel.

According to what Hong Tao said, the boat went to hire a passing sea ship, and there were only three people on Hong Tao's side, Wen Nan and Langya, and Zheng Qingzhi's side could only be within three, and Hong Tao didn't mind if he came alone. Before the two sides board the neutral vessel, they can send one person to board the ship to inspect the ship, and after confirming that it is correct, both sides will board the ship at the same time, and the two fleets will lower the sails and anchor at the same time and will not move until the personnel meeting on the neutral ship leave.

Hong Tao felt that he had eliminated all possible dangers, and the distance between the two fleets was almost a kilometer, at least a mile away from the neutral ships, and even if one side planned to surprise him, he would have time to jump on the small boat and run back. It's a bit difficult to send any water ghosts close to neutral ships, and it's impossible to find a world diving champion. Who can dive a mile and swim on their own? If there is such a person, then don't develop submarines, let him bring hundreds of apprentices out, and Hong Tao will hire them with a high salary. In the future, if you go to any port, let them swim in and put explosives on the ship, and what kind of cannon will you use? (To be continued.) )
