The discovery that Ye Yu was proficient in Japanese surprised Kiyomori Taira and Miko Akimiya, because it was not easy to learn a foreign language, let alone the language of a small and remote country like theirs.

This made Taira Kiyomori and Miko Akimiya feel that the handsome young man in front of them was unfathomable.

"I didn't expect Lord Ye to be so proficient in the language of my small country in Japan, so good!"

Ping Qingsheng's words, but Ye Yu didn't care, he couldn't help but admit frankly that he learned Japanese for watching the island country movie 'Ya Yan Butterfly'.

So he smiled, and then said softly: "It's nothing, I just understand a little......

In order not to dwell too much on this issue, Ye Yu immediately changed the topic: "His Royal Highness Meizi and Lord Taizheng came to our country here, can they still get used to food, clothing, housing and transportation all the way?" ”

Now that I know the identity of Miko Akinomiya, this kind of courtesy greeting is indispensable. Although Ye Yu could see that among the three people, it was not Miko Akinomiya who was the leader.

Ping Qingsheng bowed to Ye Yu with a Buddha salute and exclaimed: "Thanks to your concern, Meizi and our royal family have always admired the customs of the Celestial Empire, and the habits of the Celestial Empire are our habits...... This is a trip of thousands of miles, and the scenery of the Celestial Empire is really amazing, and the Celestial Empire is worthy of its name. ”

Although Miko Akinomiya was sitting there, when she heard Ye Yu's question, she still bowed slightly, and said with beautiful eyes: "The mountains are good, the water is good, and the people are better......

Burst!

Ping Kiyomori's polite words were generous and decent, but this Akinomiya Miko's words were too straightforward, although she was speaking Japanese, but Ye Yu could still understand this simple structure.

Ye Yu immediately avoided Miko Akimiya's eyes, but smiled awkwardly: "It's a good thing that Japan is concentrating on learning Chinese etiquette, and it's gratifying." ”

"Our country is isolated overseas, although I am intoxicated with Chinese etiquette, but after all, it takes time to come and go, but Lord Ye's amazing talent has long been famous overseas, and I have admired Lord Ye for a long time in Japan......."

Hearing Ping Qingsheng's words, Ye Yu suddenly felt a kind of fluttering, and said in his heart that his reputation had spread overseas?

Spread far away in the three kingdoms of Western Xia, Western Liao, and Jin, Ye Yu can still believe that after all, these people personally participated in the duel between Song and Jin back then. As for this spread overseas, it seems to be a bit of a compliment.

"You're welcome, Ye Mou just read a few more days of books, it's really not a world-class talent, today His Royal Highness and Lord Taizheng came to the cold house in person, I don't know what's important?"

Since Miko Akinomiya and Fujiwara Narifan are not fluent in Chinese, although they can roughly understand the conversation, they are extremely jerky to speak. So the rest of the conversation will be done by Ping Qingsheng.

"Lord Ye is too humble, I came to visit today, and I specially prepared gifts for filial piety!"

Ping Qingsheng said and took out the prepared gift list from his sleeve and handed it to Ye Yu in person.

Ye Yu glanced at Ping Qingsheng, and then took the gift list without pretentiousness, and after opening it and reading through the number of gifts listed, it also surprised Ye Yu's heart.

In fact, Ye Yu had already had news about the gifts given to the important ministers of the DPRK and China by Goryeo and Japan, but he didn't expect that the gift list given to him by Japan would be so rich.

The weight of this gift list has been higher than the share given to Yu Yunwen, Zhang Shuo and others. It can be said that the amount of this gift list is valuable, and it is already equivalent to the one given to King Qing.

"Ahem, Lord Taizheng, this generous gift is really generous!"

Ye Yu coughed dryly, then put the gift list on the table, and asked with interest: "Ye is not interested in these gifts, but Ye is quite interested in your country's katana......

When he first heard that Ye Yu was not interested, Ping Qingsheng's expression suddenly became solemn, but then Ye Yu's words made his expression relaxed: "I didn't expect Lord Ye to be a Wenchen, and he actually has a unique hobby for blades!" ”

"The iron-making technology of our country originated from the Central Plains, but after years of research and development, the smelting technology of our sword itself ......," Ping Qingsheng said here, and raised his eyes to look at Ye Yu.

Ye Yu saw that Ping Qingsheng suddenly stopped talking, and he smiled slightly: "Your country's current smelting technology has actually surpassed my Great Song Dynasty!" ”

This is what Ping Qingsheng meant in his words, at this moment Ye Yu took the initiative to say it, but Ping Qingsheng didn't say anything more, just recited Amitabha Buddha plainly.

This is the only thing they can get their hands on in Japan so far, and it is also an important item that is currently selling overseas.

Ye Yu looked at the three people in the hall talking about Japanese swords, all of them showed pride on their faces, and he also sighed slightly in his heart.

Damascus swords, Malay Clux swords, and Japanese swords, these are the three most famous blades in the world, and the Japanese sword can be ranked as one of the three famous swords in the world, which is enough to see the uniqueness of it.

Sometimes Ye Yu felt sad for the Central Plains, the iron-making technology came from China, and the Central Plains, which was conceited of the Heavenly Empire, was not as good as the apprentice blade of Japan in the East China Sea.

The gunpowder technology invented by alchemy was used by the imperial court as a fireworks to decorate prosperity, but after flowing into the West, it became a sharp weapon to open the door to China.

Everything comes first, but in the end, it is surpassed one after another!

Is this a blessing, or a sad one?

Ye Yu doesn't care about the majesty and reserve of the country, since Japan has advanced technology in this, it is necessary to introduce it into the country and integrate it.

The sea is tolerant of all rivers, and no one and no dynasty will always be at the top of the mountain!

However, seeing that Ping Qingsheng was so comfortable, Ye Yu felt that it was necessary to suppress it, so he said: "However, although Japan's smelting technology is slightly better than that of my Great Song Dynasty, the essence of smelting is still hidden in the Central Plains!" ”

"Oh? Really? That's a poor monk who is lonely and unheard! ”

"Lord Taizheng, doesn't you think Ye is boasting?"

"How dare you, our culture originates from the Central Plains, and the art of smelting will be higher than our country......" Although Ping Qingsheng said so, his tone was not recognized.

Ye Yu didn't bother to pursue too much in this matter, so he said: "Your Highness and Lord Taizheng actually understand the intention of Ye Mou, Ye Mou can fight for the result you want for your country, but Ye Mou also has his own conditions......

"Lord Ye, just speak!" Ping Qingsheng saw Ye Yu's bold attitude at this moment, and his heart was overjoyed to change his posture as a monk before.

"Your Highness, Lord Taizheng, please have tea!" Ye Yu said unhurriedly.

"Uh, good ......" anxiously Ping Qingsheng didn't have the heart to drink tea at the moment, but the so-called guests are as they please, since Ye Yu signaled to drink tea, they couldn't save the host's face.

After drinking the tea, Ye Yu said slowly: "Ye Mou privately formed a sea caravan, and there are many shortcomings in creating a caravan for the first time......

Ye Yu held the tea cup, pinched the lid in his right hand and gently stirred the tea leaves in the cup, and stopped talking here.

Ping Qingsheng is a smart person, seeing Ye Yu's posture at the moment, he suddenly realized after a little contemplation: "I have long heard that Lord Ye was already a good businessman before he became an official, and now it is naturally a good thing to develop business to the sea!" ”

"Lord Ye, you can rest assured, in the future, this caravan will come and go, and our country will definitely support you along the way, and Lord Ye, your caravan is formed for the first time, there will definitely be a shortage of merchant sailors, and these countries can support you unconditionally!"

Ping Qingsheng's sincerity made Ye Yu move the hand of the tea cup lightly, and he couldn't help but shake slightly, obviously he didn't expect Ping Qingsheng to offer such an unexpected discount!

Originally, Ye Yu planned to use this matter to let Ping Qingsheng open the sea route for him, after all, although Lu Qing's ability is there, it takes time to achieve it.

If you can get direct benefits directly from Japan, it will save a lot of detours and troubles.

But Ye Yu never expected that this Ping Qingsheng would even be willing to give strong support to the fleet and sailors who formed a caravan, which Ye Yu really didn't expect before.

All he could say was that it was amazing!

The important thing about the sea caravan is the sailor and the merchant ship, the sailor is not a difficult task, but the merchant ship is an extremely tricky thing, and it can also be said to be an extremely money-burning thing.

The sea fleet of the Great Song Dynasty was mighty and majestic, but it was only a product of the state-owned army, and the fleet of ordinary merchants did not have this standard at all, on the one hand, the financial resources could not be reached, and on the other hand, there was also a restriction of the imperial court.

As far as the current financial resources of his Chinese firm are concerned, the start-up capital will not be able to build a few big ships. Because the quality of a merchant ship that sails close can be a little worse, and a merchant ship that sails far cannot be sloppy in the slightest.

Because merchant ships may be anchored at sea for a year and a half, which is within the scope of the plan, the cost of such a long-distance merchant ship is really expensive.

Now that Japan has taken the initiative to send a merchant ship, how can Ye Yu's heart not be happy for a while?

But Ye Yu was not overjoyed, and his face still maintained the due calmness and calmness. Miko Akimiya dragged her cheeks and looked at Ye Yu quietly like that, as if she was admiring a beloved Danqing painting.

Ping Qingsheng saw that Ye Yu was still silent, so he asked tentatively: "Lord Ye, are you still not satisfied with this?" ”

"Uh...... Actually......"

Ye Yu was about to say a few words, so he was ready to respond to this condition of Ping Qingsheng.

But before he finished his words, he was preempted by Miko Akinomiya, only to see Miko Akinomiya staring at Ye Yu, and said in stiff Chinese: "I want to give ...... Lord Ye's caravan...... Dedicated port! ”

Belch......

Miko Akimiya's words, but he choked on Taira Kiyomori, and said in his heart that the opening of the port was open for fun?

This is a state-to-country port, but it's not a special one!

Isn't it too much for a small private caravan to set up a special port for reception and berthing?

And after Ye Yu listened to Miko Akinomiya's words, his Adam's apple couldn't help but roll, and he said in his heart that this stroke is really not small.

"Lord Ye, what else do you need, say...... Say ......"

Miko Akimiya spoke stiffly in Chinese, signaling Ye Yu to continue to open the conditions. And this blank check with no limit was placed in front of Ye Yu!
