Except for Liang Pengfei's good sleep on the first day, Liang Pengfei was so busy in the next two days that he couldn't touch the ground, because a letter had already arrived from the south, and the Nalu steward and the 3,000 Chinese who had migrated in advance had established a foothold on Namasbat Island, established a small town made of fences and stones, and built a wharf.

However, during this period, the natives of Luzon came to harass many times, causing dozens of casualties, and in a fit of rage, Steward Lu led his men to wipe out all the natives within thirty miles of their station, and about 2,000 human heads were hung on the treetops outside the newly established small town, so that the safety of the surrounding environment was assured.

Nearly 600 captives were also captured, and the Lu steward naturally did not let go of this kind of free coolie, so that they repaired the docks, built houses, and expanded the size of the town every day to treat the tens of thousands of compatriots who were still on Luzon.

However, although some of the production and living utensils were obtained through the trade with the Spanish governor, it still seemed a little dwarfed after all, and now a large number of iron tools, agricultural tools, various daily necessities, as well as food and seeds were needed...... In addition, during this time, Liang Daguan was not idle, and took those small pirate leaders to visit their respective lairs, and as a result, they actually collected more than 300,000 taels of gold, more than 10 million taels of silver, and all kinds of treasures, antiques, and coins.

It is estimated that the total value of wealth is at least about 20 million taels, and this is only because of the monsoon, so he had to return to the mainland in advance, and only plundered the lair of a few pirates, and the lair of Pulsatilla Owen, according to his men, there are at least nearly 100,000 pounds of gold and nearly a million gold coins from various countries, and there are countless silver, as well as various jewelry, a total of three whole kilns are buried, and it is said that they have made an estimate, and the total value will not be less than 40 million taels of silver.

I didn't expect that I could get such a rich reward by taking the initiative to provoke so much. If you count those captured warships, then the total profit and income obtained by his old Liang family is close to 90 million taels of silver.

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

"Ninety million taels of silver, I don't know if there are so many taxes in our Great Qing Kingdom for a year......" After carefully calculating with his son, Liang Daguan sat on the chair in a daze for a long time, his pupils were a little dilated, it seemed that it was not a good thing to be overstimulated, and Liang Pengfei was no better, looking at the watch in his hand blankly, silently counting the zeros behind, and his mouth was trembling.

Although in later generations, in the era when gold and silver were converted into paper money, 90 million taels of silver, according to the estimation of later generations, was only equivalent to more than 10 billion yuan and less than 20 billion yuan, which was converted into US dollars, that is, the value of 2 or 3 billion US dollars, but in this era, it is absolutely different.

You must know that the tax revenue of the court in the 55th year of Qianlong was about 50 million taels, and the Liang family obtained the tax revenue of a country for nearly two years at the cost of dozens of deaths and injuries.

"Mother, our old Liang family, this time it's really a big deal." Liang Daguan's hand holding the cigarette was a little shaky, his mouth was trembling, and he seemed a little incoherent when he spoke, like seeing the white radishes planted in his vegetable field all turned into wild ginseng overnight.

"Dad, come, take a sip of tea, don't get excited, these are just numbers on paper." When Liang Pengfei saw his father's appearance, he was so frightened that he panicked, and hurriedly brought a cup of tea and sent it forward, while patting Liang Daguan on the back and persuading. "Don't forget, we haven't gone to Pulsatilla Owen's lair yet, in case someone else preempts it......"

"Which bastard dares to rob Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu abolished him first." As soon as Liang Daguan heard Liang Pengfei's words, his eyes suddenly lit up, and a mighty momentum suddenly emanated, with a fierce and barbaric face.

Seeing his father's posture of copying the knife and using force, Liang Pengfei was speechless. However, Liang Daguan finally got rid of the emotions just now, and listened to his son plan the future of the old Liang family.

The development of the central Luzon Islands, as well as the construction of the base of King Crab Island, and the expansion of the Liang family's business, are all the same, all of which are laborious, and it doesn't take much effort, Liang Daguan found that under his son's plan, he just grabbed more than 30 million taels that had not yet been hot in his hand, just like splashing water, and let his son scoop out one basin after another.

But in the same way, when Liang Pengfei told Mr. Liang that on the island of Masbat, where the Liang family had already gained a firm foothold, according to the proven situation, there were at least 1,000 tons of gold mines, that is, at least 20 million taels of gold reserves, which was still a conservative estimate.

After hearing the news, Liang Daguan was speechless for a long time, and he no longer had any questions about his son's plan, so he threw the matter to Liang Pengfei, patted his ass and slipped away, and the next morning, Ye, who was a little blue-eyed, came to ask Liang Pengfei what happened to his father? I didn't sleep all night, and I was secretly having fun there.

Where did Liang Pengfei dare to tell the truth, he had to talk nonsense about his son being too wise and martial, and his daughter-in-law married the two in one go, and made his father crazy, so he covered up the past.

In addition to these things that both pleased Liang Pengfei and annoyed people, there was also news from the crab king island, the Venetian Chinese businessman really didn't brag, so he relied on the limited tools provided by Liang Pengfei to him, he remodeled on the island, instructed those craftsmen, and after nearly three months of training, he really used the quartz sand produced in Guangdong to make glass, and the sample had been presented to Liang Pengfei.

"The transparency is still a bit lacking, but Mr. Romans said that he could have done better if he had been given a little more time, after all, the amount of impurities in each quartz placer is different, and it takes a lot of testing to make a more perfect finished product." A steward stood in front of Liang Pengfei and reported respectfully.

Liang Pengfei put down the glass, suppressed the joy in his heart, and nodded: "You tell Mr. Mai, don't be in a hurry, I have time, in addition, money, raw materials, people, what I give him if I am lacking, by the way, you tell Mr. Mai again, I am doing his business, since his hometown is in Yangjiang, this is much simpler, but, because he is a countryman, if he does not keep braided hair, after going ashore, he will be discovered, I am afraid that there will be a big disturbance, so let him wait more, keep his hair in braids, and be safe." ”

"Okay young master, I don't know if you have any other orders, young master?" After the steward silently wrote down Liang Pengfei's words, he asked again.

"What are the POWs doing now?" Liang Pengfei picked up a cigar and lit it and inhaled it beautifully, and there was finally a trace of brilliance on his tired face. I barely slept last night, and early in the morning, I let the steward from King Crab Island quarrel, no way, Liang Daguan took Liang Pengfei at home for two days, and wanted to rush to the surrounding areas of Guangdong to see his own business, plus Liang Pengfei was not at ease about this matter of glass to be handed over to others to deal with.

"It's okay, those Spanish prisoners of war are quite obedient, and the projects we assigned to them can be completed on time and in quantity, by the way, according to your instructions, young master, we have made a distinction, and we have really found some talents, some are born in shipbuilding, some make a living from winemaking, some are tailors, some are gardeners, some are doctors, and one is a chef, and now he is serving the Sister Maria. As for those talents, the small ones have already assigned them to the positions they need, and they have been given salaries, and their treatment is much better than that of ordinary prisoners of war. The steward replied with a smile.

"But those pirates are different, although most of them have now accepted their fate, but there are also some who are not very obedient, some time ago, the lord went back to the island, and when he heard about it, he threw more than thirty of them into the sea...... Now, it's all honest. And our King of Crab Island can be said to be the same day now,"

"Well, well done, my dad did the right thing, I really can't be polite to those people, by the way, those pirates who know how to draw have drawn a map of the sea they are familiar with." Liang Pengfei raised his eyebrows and smiled.

"According to your instructions, young master, all the pirates who are drawn, each of us will be detained separately, let them draw a sea chart, and then we will compare and investigate from it, so that although these pirates will still play some small tricks, but those sea areas are no longer strange to us, although those Spanish naval officers are proud, but they do have a set, and many things are unheard of, and they are really beneficial."

The two were chatting about the current situation of King Crab Island, but they heard that Bai Shusheng had come to report that a guest had visited. "It's a person, saying that he wants to apply for our teacher, according to your instructions, young master, we only accept those who are talented or interpreters, but he just doesn't do it, the steward of the clan is helpless, and he doesn't dare to offend too much, so he asked him to come to the house to find the master, and the master said that just let that person find you."

"In that case, let him in, shall we?" Liang Pengfei stood up and walked out of the room: "Go to the front hall to meet this lifter." ”

Liang Pengfei sat in the front hall, just took two sips of tea, and a middle-aged man in a plain blue coat walked into the hall.

Liang Pengfei was not annoyed, and also looked at this person, the height is at most about 1.7 meters, but he is not as slender as an ordinary literati, but he looks energetic, and what makes Liang Pengfei pay the most attention is that his plain blue gown has been washed a little white, but it is neat and clean, and his hair is meticulously cared for. Either that, or a high-ranking official with a lot of power.
