The sea off Kagoshima. [No pop-up novel network]

"Boss Shi, we ran all the way to Nagasaki, but we ran away after two fireballs, and got on two boats in vain, what is the purpose of this trip?" Ruan Si chattered and complained, very dissatisfied with this inexplicable trip to Nagasaki.

"You know a fart, since Boss Xu has commanded, of course it has a deep meaning, if you idiot can understand it, then Boss Xu still deserves to be the boss?" As the leader, Boss Shi was also very unhappy, and he scolded and said:

"Originally, Lao Tzu wanted to set up a trap and grab a boat over, but those people were too slippery, so they actually fired two cannons and didn't chase them, otherwise...... Hmph, however, it's okay, this trip is not without gain, the eyeliner of the Wa Kingdom has been arranged, and the things explained by Boss Xu have also been done, let's just return it, why do you want to do so much? ”

This terrible topic made him more and more angry, and finally he slapped Ruan Siyi hard and scolded: "Don't be stupid, don't go to raise the sails?" ”

"This is going back to Penghu?" Ruan Si has rough skin and thick meat, and he is used to being beaten and scolded again, but he is not annoyed, but he happily asks about the destination.

"Go back to Penghu, if you want to go back to Yonaguni Island, the boss should have already arrived in that vicinity, besides, don't be in a hurry now, wait for the news from the eyeliner first."

Boss Shi was very depressed, how good it was to stay in Penghu in a good manner, but Boss Xu wanted to toss and bring the entire fleet to the East China Sea, could it be that he really fell in love with the queen of Yonaguni Island? Or are you coming to Nagasaki to fight the legendary plague god?

It's okay to rob the queen, the so-called queen is just a tribal leader, and there are not a few subordinates in total, so you can do it casually. But if you deal with the champion Hou ...... That's too dangerous, right?

"That'...... What to do with that ship? Drag it back? Just as he was out of his mind, Ruan Si shouted again in a loud voice.

"It's all burned like that, can it be repaired? What are you dragging back for, using it as firewood? Seeing the ship that was burned out and was rescued so easily, Boss Shi's mood became even more unbeautiful.

"Then Boss Shi, why did you work so hard when you put out the fire?" Ruan Si muttered.

"It's just not reasonable to be a bastard with you, I can't figure out such a simple thing." Boss Shi sneered, if it weren't for Boss Xu's method that seemed to have some effect, even if he pulled the flag against the water, he wouldn't follow him to fight Nagasaki, it would be purely death! However, now it seems that there is still a little bit of spectrum, so let's wait and see for a while.

He raised his hand violently and shouted, "Sink that pile of rags, leave no traces, and go to Yakushima." ”

…… Fukue Island Governor's Palace.

"What is the situation in Kinai? Can the main force of the Ouchi family show signs of returning? ”

"My lord, the Ouchi family is gaining the upper hand in the battle with the Hosokawa family, and when the situation is very good, it is difficult to imagine that they will withdraw their troops from Kinai unless there is danger in such a fundamental place as Zhoufang and Chikuzen."

"Well, this is what Master Hou said, the Daimyo of the Wa Kingdom is obsessed with Shangluo, right?" Ma Ang nodded, turned to the other maritime merchant and asked, "Is there a connection from the Nizi family?" What do they say? ”

"Back to the adults, the little ones have already been in contact with the Nizi family, and they are also very interested in cooperation." The merchant replied respectfully, "However, in my small opinion, they are not sincere, especially in the sale of Iwami Ginzan......"

"Oh? They don't promise? Maang raised an eyebrow.

"That's not it, after the little one proposed, they quickly agreed, but that His Royal Highness is an ambitious person, and most of the tricks used to achieve today's situation are some cunning methods, so ......"

"In other words, this Nizi is a capricious character, isn't he?" Maang asked bluntly.

"My lord Mingjian, that's exactly the case." The merchant bowed down and said: "The Ouchi family raised troops to go to Luo, and the Nizi family also sent soldiers and horses to follow, but after the small one arrived in Izumo Province, he found that there were many samurai in the territory, even if there were no adults, I am afraid they already had a plan to attack Ouchi, and Iwami's silver mine problem, he agreed to come down in one bite, so he ......"

"Well, I understand, the Nizi family really has no sincerity, and it is likely that they will deal with this official with the same idea as they did against the Ouchi family." Maang nodded.

When the daimyo of the Wa Kingdom fought, the main force was samurai, so according to the information detected by the maritime merchants, the Shangluo soldiers and horses sent by the Niko family were obviously not the main force, so Iwami was the direction of his expansion, maybe it was already regarded as a thing in the bag, and he should have been a little dissatisfied and objected anyway.

But he didn't, so the maritime merchant's opinion was reasonable, and the other party planned to simply use his own assistance at the beginning, and then break the contract afterwards.

The corners of Ma Ang's mouth moved, revealing a sneer, what Brother Xie said was really good, you can't take it lightly when dealing with the Japanese people, these people are ghostly, and they never want to be faced, and breaking the contract or something is commonplace.

"Very well, what's your name?" Ma Ang no longer dwelled on this topic, but instead asked about the identity of this maritime merchant, this person has good observation and good insight, and is a talent worth gathering.

"Thank you for the compliment, the little Yang Min was originally a ......" Yang Min is a clever person, seeing Ma Ang asking, how did he not know that the opportunity was in front of him? is happy at the moment, and he has to explain his roots.

"It doesn't matter how it was before, Yang Baihu, let's work well for the great tomorrow in the future." Ma Ang smiled and waved his hand, and the words he said made Yang Min excited, playing for the champion Hou, the opportunity is really everywhere!

"Thank you, sir." Knowing that Maang still had something to say, Yang Min didn't say much, and after thanking him, he stood aside and waited.

"What about the Maori family?"

"Go back to the ...... of the adult" to go to Maori's house This mood is a little complicated, and there is already an example of Yang Min in advance, of course he also wants to behave better and get the same reward.

Baihu is just a small official like a sesame mung bean, if he is placed in the capital, he may not even be able to compare with the head of the government of Shuntian Mansion, but in the eyes of these businessmen, it is a great identity, which is enough for them to fight for it.

What's more, this hundred households are not the ordinary kind, but the hundred households of the Imperial Governor's Mansion under the jurisdiction of the Champion Hou, which belongs to the royal fleet and serves the Great Tomorrow, how can it be equated with mortal streams? He really wanted to make the most of the opportunity in front of him.

It's just that reality doesn't depend on human will, and this errand is really a bit difficult to do.

"The current situation of Maori is terrible......" His tone was a little low, not sympathetic to the Japanese people, but rather depressed about his errands.

As a small wealthy family of An Yun, not to mention the Ouchi who dominates the Seven Kingdoms, even if it is with the Nizi family, the Maori family cannot be compared, the Anyun country is close to the sea, but there is not even a port in the territory of the Maori family, and their strength and difficulty in contact can be imagined.

Originally, the strength of the Maori family was not bad, ranking among the top of the eight wealthy families of Anyu, but due to the dispute between the Ouchi faction and the Hosokawa faction, the former head of the family, Mori Hiromoto, who was sandwiched in the middle, had to retire and give up the position of the head of the family to his eight-year-old son Xingyuan.

If you don't have the strength, you will be oppressed, an eight-year-old child has limited ability, of course, there is no way to reverse the situation, so the situation of the Maori family is not as good as day by day, after the death of Hongyuan, Xingyuan completely took refuge in the Ouchi side, and in the Shangluo operation a year ago, he went to Kyoto with him.

If this was the case, the maritime merchant in charge of the contact would not have to be depressed and just say it, but just before he returned from the Mori family, news came from Kyoto that Mori Kogen had died in the battle with Hosokawa, and the Mori family had completely become a lonely ghost.

Mori Hiromoto has another son, but the little ghost named Matsujumaru is only ten years old now, and he is too young to suppress those retainers, and several important retainers have their own opinions.

As a result, there was no progress at all in the negotiations, and not even a single intention could be negotiated. In fact, it's useless to talk about it, with the current situation of the Maori family, no matter how much support is given, I'm afraid it can only be a waste.

"Isn't that just right?" Ma Ang pinched his chin and said thoughtfully.

"Suitable......" The maritime merchant was at a loss, it was clearly the mud that couldn't support the wall, how could it be suitable?

"Yang Min, what do you think?" Maang asked suddenly.

"My lord, there should be something to do." Yang Min has a Min character in his name, and his reaction is also very smart, and he immediately responded: "How cunning are the Japanese people, and they are also surnames who don't cry when they don't see the coffin, like the Songpu Party and Longzao Temple, after being beaten, it's okay to know that our Ming is powerful, but a big name like the Nizi family only treats us as ordinary businessmen......"

At best, it sounds like an ordinary businessman, and the Nizi family treats Yang Min as a fat sheep, so there is no sincerity, knowing that Ma Ang has a plan, Yang Min doesn't explain much, and continues:

"A daimyo like the Maori family is very weak, and if it weren't for the help of adults, it was not known that they would soon be swallowed up, and they couldn't even think of attacking Iwami Country. It would be a good time to take advantage of this opportunity to plant people within them, but with their strength, even if they get the aid of weapons and even food, I am afraid it will ......."

"Well, yes, Yang Baihu, are you willing to make another trip for this official? This time I went to An Yunguo. Maang said with satisfaction.

"The lord has an order, and the humble duty should serve his own life." Yang Min immediately bowed down and responded.

"You go to the Maori family and tell them that this official is here for justice and peace on behalf of the Ming Champion Hou, and out of righteous indignation, I hereby provide all kinds of assistance, including military assistance, to help the Maori family pacify the Shanyang area......"

"Military assistance? My lord, you are going to send troops to Anyun? Yang Min's heart sank, and then he was happy, just the aid materials, even if he can be fully responsible, he is just an errand businessman, but if he sends troops, then his responsibility is much more important, and the credit in the future is of course greater.

Ma Ang smiled: "Yes, let the Maori family vacate the positions of two family elders, one of them is you, who is in charge of internal affairs, and the other is in charge of military affairs, tell them that as long as they know each other, there will be 2,000 cavalry to fight for them, and let them become the most important names in Shanyang, the price is just a mountain of Iwami." ”

"Two thousand...... Cavalry? Yang Min gasped, even if it is placed in the Central Plains, two thousand cavalry is a force that cannot be ignored, and it is ...... in the country of Wa It is impossible for the Maori family to refuse such conditions, and with such strength, their dream of unifying the country of Anyu can be realized in the snap of a finger.

"Your Excellency, rest assured, you will complete your mission with humility and swearing."

"Okay, rest for two days, you can leave as soon as possible, the army from Liaodong should already be on the way."

"Thank you for your care, you don't need to rest, you can leave immediately."

"Well, that's fine." Ma Ang was very satisfied with Yang Min's positive surname, nodded, and signaled that the other party could step back and prepare for departure.

"Adult, little ......" looked at Yang Min's figure, and the other two maritime merchants were envious and regretful, envious of Yang Min's situation, and regretted that they did not grasp the opportunity.

However, as businessmen, although they are not as fast as Yang Min, they are all shrewd people, and they don't care about it, but they set their eyes on Maang, hoping to get new opportunities.

"You don't have to be disappointed, after today, the fleet from Liaodong will arrive, and when the time comes, there will be more opportunities, it depends on whether you can grasp it."

"Thank you, thank you, thank you." The two maritime merchants were overjoyed and thanked them again and again.

"Third Brother Lu, let the others come to see me, in addition, send a flywheel battleship to send Yang Min to An Yun, let him go back quickly, and the maritime merchant who has been there once, also let him follow, and settle the matter as soon as possible, so that I can reply to Brother Xie accordingly."

"Got it."

…… Three days later, Koriyama Castle.

"Yang Sang, what you said is true? Will there really be two thousand soldiers and horses? And also cavalry? ”

"Of course, I am here on behalf of the Governor's Mansion of the Ming East China Sea, is it necessary to lie to you? You just have to negotiate it yourself, but you have to give me an answer as soon as possible, if you don't want to, hehe, there are still many wealthy families in Anyun. Yang Minjiu occupied the magpie's nest, sitting on the main seat, and kneeling down sat a group of Japanese people with changing expressions.

"Then, in the future, I will thank Yang Sang for more care, in addition, there is a reluctant request below, I don't know ......"

"But it doesn't hurt to say it."

"Yang Sang also knows that the head of our family is at the first funeral, and the young master is still young, can I ask the governor to preside over the Yuan Costume ceremony of the young master of our family?"

"Then let the young master go with me to Fujiang Island, and you elders can also accompany you, how about it?" Yang Min sneered in his heart, wanting to test the strength of the Governor? Although Fukue Island is still very simple, it is much stronger than the fenced city here, so don't be dazzled by it.
