Chapter 590: Advice

"Wang Baihu, don't come, okay?" Ma Ang strode into the living room, and greeted him with a smile on his face as soon as he entered the door. [Full text reading]

"There is the concern of the Governor of Lao, and the humble duty is really within the five feelings." Wang Hai's heart warmed, although he didn't have much contact, through his previous observation and understanding of Xie Hong, he knew that the other party was not that kind of hypocritical person.

In Jiangnan's comments, Xie Hong and his subordinates were all described as rude and rude scoundrels, and even the current emperor was included in this category, but when it came to Zhengde, he would generally use more obscure terms.

The same words, in the ears of different people, but the meaning is different, these words in Wang Hai's ears, it is clear that Xie Hong does not pay attention to false courtesy, only pays attention to practical results, it is his appetite for a person who has not read a book. After experiencing a struggle in his heart, seeing Ma Ang's enthusiastic attitude, Wang Hai's gratitude was also sincere.

When facing the North Koreans, Ma Ang talks a lot of nonsense, not only because of his own surname, but also because of the opportunity, anyway, the other party can only listen to what he says, and the other party can only bear what he does, how can there be anything more pleasant than that.

With his own people, especially when talking about business, he becomes concise and to the point.

Of course, this is also forced by the situation, in recent months, the affairs of the Governor's Mansion have increased suddenly, and Ma Ang has a very deep understanding of the concept of geometric progression growth that Xie Hong said, if he didn't know that Xie Hong had no one there, it would be too late to regret it now, and he really wanted to get rid of it.

Of course, being a governor is very cool, but being a governor like this is not interesting, it is too hard.

"Wang Baihu and sit down for a while, and wait for the official to explain a few words to Zheng Qianhu first." There are really a lot of talents in the maritime merchants in Jiangnan, and Ma Ang's style of daring to delegate power is the same as Xie Hong's, so he has somewhat shared.

"Retire first." Wang Hai was very self-aware, knowing that Ma Ang was going to explain Zheng Long's strategy, so he didn't dare to listen, so he hurriedly got up and said goodbye.

"Eh, it's all his own people, Wang Baihu just needs to sit and listen."

Ma Ang waved his hand, signaling Wang Hai not to shy away, thought about it, and continued: "Wait for the Jiangnan matter, you also have to be alone, listen to it more, the strategy implemented by the Governor's Mansion now is also the overseas strategy of the Ming Dynasty in the future, and now it is a pilot, and I want everyone to refer to it together." ”

"Thank you, sir, ...... It is better to be respectful than to obey orders. Wang Hai's heart was agitated and excited, mostly because of Maang's trust, and partly because of his yearning for the future.

Of course, an old sailor like Wang Hai knows what the concept of overseas is, in addition to the East China Sea, there is Luzon in the south, and the further south of Luzon is the Western Ocean where the Three Treasure Eunuchs have been.

It is difficult to tell how big it is and whether there is an end or not, even the oldest person in Jiangnan, or the most knowledgeable person, but Wang Hai knows very well that as long as Da Ming is determined to grab it, there will be endless wealth there, this is an undoubted fact.

In the past few years, Wang Hai has been looking forward to old age, the reason is not that he is tired of sailing, he is only tired of the previous life.

In Daming, in the Wang family, he can only be a subordinate with low eyebrows, and when he goes to sea, he must also sneakily go out of the port; When he arrived in the Wa Kingdom, he still had to be afraid, those Wa people can sometimes keep their senses, but without the strength to suppress them, no one knows when they will go crazy, even if it is the Matsuura Party that has always cooperated well.

The only thing that makes him feel refreshed is probably only when he is on the road, the vast and boundless sea makes him feel the taste of freedom, but even at this time, he still can't take it lightly, because navigation itself also contains huge risks, and if you are not careful, you may lose your ship.

If it was only the risk of sailing itself, he had nothing to complain about, and since he had set sail at sea, of course he had to be aware. But in fact, this risk is also man-made to a certain extent.

As the saying goes: if you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools, and the risk of navigation is largely determined by the ship. Wang Hai has no way of knowing what the treasure ship was like in the era of the Three Treasure Eunuchs, but the Wang family has been sailors for generations, and he knows very well that over the past few decades, the fortune ship has become smaller and smaller, and it has become more and more useless.

The technology of building large ships is still circulating in Jiangnan, and the materials are easy to find, but what limits the scale of ships is the sea ban that exists in name only. The Jiangnan family has made a bitch and has to set up an archway, obviously the Caspian trade is endless in private, but he wants to say something righteous in the court, so in order for their faces to be not too ugly, Wang Hai's depression has become inevitable.

The big ship has a deep draft, has high requirements for the port, and it is difficult to avoid people's eyes and ears, of course, it will not be treated by the adults of the family, anyway, it is not themselves who go to sea to face the wind and waves, who will care about the life and death of the next person? As long as there is money in the account, if it is not for the fear that the wealth will be lost, they would like to let people go to sea on small sampans to trade.

Ma Ang's words were very brief, but in Wang Hai's ears, it was like a thunderclap, which quickly lifted his spirits.

Learn to become a martial artist and sell it to the emperor's family, the heavenly family used to only value those things that Wang Hai did not have and did not have the opportunity to have, but now the world has changed, and the navigation technology and personal talents also have a stage to display, and he can also use this to fight for a wife and a son, how can he not be excited?

"Zheng Qianhu, the fleet is about to set sail, and the five hundred cavalry have boarded the ship...... In your opinion, is the Longtail family trustworthy? Do you have any ambitions to expand into Kai? Maang felt Wang Hai's excitement, but he didn't have time to pay attention for a while, the fleet was ready to go, and he had to confirm the intention of the partner one last time.

Even if the Mongolian cavalry were trapped, Maang was not distressed, but after suffering such losses, it would be difficult for Jiafei's side to do it, and it would be impossible to borrow from North Korea again, right? Brother Xie said that this kind of thing should come from time to time, and the frequency should not be too high, so as not to spoil the stick, and once a year or two is enough.

"That Lord Wei Jing is ambitious, he has been trying to unify Echigo, but his strength is not good, if he can get the help of five hundred cavalry, the determination to attack Kai, he should have, and he also recognizes Sado's belonging. But when it comes to sincerity...... The subordinates are not completely sure. ”

When he came back from Echigo, Ma Ang had already confirmed with Zheng Long once, but that time was not as solemn as he said this time, so Zheng Long was a little hesitant at this time.

"It's okay, you go on......" Ma Ang raised his eyebrows, seeing that Zheng Long's words were still unfinished.

"It's the one that the adult wants his subordinates to ask......" Zheng Long peeked at Ma Ang's expression, but saw the other party staring at him with a serious expression, knowing that he couldn't avoid it, so he had to bite the bullet and said: "It's that Tiger Chiyo......"

"Oh?" Maang was stunned.

"My lord, generally speaking, the girl in this book will not give this kind of name, and besides, Changwei Weijing just inherited the position of family governor last year, and now there is no heir, let alone a daughter, from what his subordinates see, it doesn't seem to be a fake ......" Zheng Long said very embarrassed: "However, since it is the Hou Ye who inquired, maybe it is because the Jingcheng Mansion is too deep, so that the subordinates can't see through it and don't know." ”

"So?" Ma Ang pinched his eyebrows, and he also had a little headache.

This matter was explained by Xie Hong before leaving, and it was the same as that Maori Yuan, he also predicted the Tiger Chiyo of the Nagao family, and he also specifically explained that if there is such a girl, no matter how old she is, she must bring Goto and send it to Liaodong, so that he can see it, and then serve the other party.

Xie Hong's statement itself is very strange, in this book, the yuan dress is a boy's sincere and benevolent courtesy, and the girl's name generally does not have the word 'tiger'. However, because he has too many magical places, whether it is Ma Ang or Zheng Long, who has been ordered by Ma Ang, they don't have much doubt, anyway, Hou Ye has great powers, and he will never be wrong.

Therefore, Zheng Long was very embarrassed and could not be sure of the sincerity of the Long Tail family. Maang is also a little dizzy, no matter what age? When did Brother Xie become so murderous? It is said that Brother Xie is not a lustful person.

Of course they don't know, Xie Hong is just an otaku with a bad taste, and they want to confirm whether Sister Uesugi in the game really exists.

The burning of Xiaguan Port, in fact, is also his resentment from later generations, Xiaguan is also known as Maguan, is the place where the Braided Dynasty signed the "Shimonoseki Treaty" with Yuben after the First Sino-Japanese War. Xie Hong originally planned to repay the favor in his own way, but in this era, he really couldn't find an authoritative person to sign this thing, so he simply burned it and pulled it down.

"Forget it, it's nothing, maybe Tiger Chiyo is still too young, so that long tail is reluctant to be a scene......" Ma Ang sighed, a young girl who even the Japanese people couldn't bear to ...... Alas, brother-in-law, you are so cruel.

"Let's go according to the original plan, Zheng Qianhu, after that, you will stay there, and while urging the expansion of the Nagao family, you will also have to deal with the maritime merchants of the Ming Dynasty, and in addition, you must also take into account the mining progress of Sado Island, well, then you will have to work."

"The subordinates should do their best to repay the Son of Heaven's Long's grace and the trust of the Lord." Zheng Long got up and clenched his fists, replied, nodded to Wang Hai again, and then turned away.

Although he didn't fully understand the conversation between the two, Wang Hai still felt very powerful. On the land of another country, robbing money, mining, and women, and the woman must also be the daughter of the local lord, and she is also called a princess in the local area, isn't this powerful?

"Wang Baihu, you are here to ...... this time" was excited, Ma Ang had already turned to him and asked him bluntly about the purpose of his trip.

Wang Hai didn't dare to slack off, hurriedly gathered his thoughts, and replied: "My subordinates this time because they heard about the natural disasters in Liaodong, so they ...... Who knew that the departure was imminent, and the Hou Ye had already reversed the situation, but the plan had been decided, and he had to send it, and his subordinate fleet was now docked in Kagoshima, and it was full of grain. ”

"Oh? Wang Baihu is really a caring person, and this official is grateful on behalf of my lord and the people of Liaodong. Ma Ang's eyes lit up, he originally thought that Wang Hai would return if he reported the news or exposed his identity, but he didn't expect that there would be an unexpected gain, he smiled and said: "Although there is no shortage of food in Liaodong, but for this official, Wang Baihu is really very timely, and he should make a great achievement." ”

"Your Excellency, could it be...... Did the Governor's Office also provide food to the daimyo of the Wa Kingdom? Wang Hai was overjoyed when he heard this, he was very familiar with the situation of the Wa Kingdom, otherwise he would not have made this suggestion to confuse the second prince of Wang, so he immediately thought of what Ma Ang's words meant.

"Wang Baihu is really clever and quick-witted." Ma Ang stroked his palm and praised: "In the strategy of the Japanese kingdom set by my marquis, it is a two-pronged approach, fishing in troubled waters, and slowly drawing blood from the Japanese kingdom to achieve the purpose of weakening the enemy and enriching himself. ”

After a pause, he continued: "It's easy to talk about the grain, in order not to arouse the doubts of the rest of the fleet, you just have to sell it to the Shimazu family, and what you want can be easily handled, and this official will send an order to the daimyo of Kyushu to let them buy it as soon as possible...... It's over there in Jiangnan, Wang Baihu, you are from Jiangnan, have you found anything unusual? ”

"Your Excellency is wise." The meaning of Ma Ang's words was to let him go back to Jiangnan to be an undercover agent, if it was before the conversation just now, Wang Hai might have been a little entangled and disappointed, but now he is full of energy. Hou Ye will be rewarded for his merits, and the more he pays now, the more he will gain in the future.

"The great families in Jiangnan have changed their ......" has made up his mind, and Wang Hai said his discoveries and speculations without reservation.

"First of all, the fleet and sailors...... Secondly, the pirates in the Zhoushan area suddenly died down, and it seems that they have been bought by the family, and the pirates in the South China Sea, led by the Xu family brothers, seem to be still waiting, but judging by their subordinates, I am afraid that they have also moved, otherwise they would not suddenly move to the Yaeyama area. ”

"Well, it turns out that they were the ones who came to test before, the Xu family brothers, they can be regarded as a character, it seems that they really need to be strictly guarded." Maang sneered.

"Dare to teach the adults to know, there are still some speculations among the subordinates......" Wang Hai gradually let go.

"Speak." Maang continued to be concise.

"Before the subordinates set off, they heard such a thing in Ningbo......

"Guangdong? What's there? Ma Ang frowned, he didn't know anything about the south, but he understood the strangeness of things.

"Based on the speculation of the subordinates, the goal of the fleet is likely to be...... Guangdong Naval Division. ”

"Maritime merchants, pirates, even the sailors have come out, hum, as expected by the Hou Ye, the people of Jiangnan are holding back their strength and are ready to strike a fatal blow." Ma Ang snorted coldly and suddenly asked, "Wang Baihu, in your opinion, when will the Jiangnan side be launched, and where will it be launched?" ”

Wang Hai shook his spirits and immediately replied: "The specific time is not easy to determine, but according to the current situation, it will be next spring at the earliest, if it is fully prepared, it is likely to be in the spring and summer of next year, the direction is ......?"

He thought about it and shook his head with some uncertainty:

"In the opinion of the subordinates, the family and the pirates have not reached an agreement, the pirates in the South China Sea must be planning to come to the five islands, the family is thinking further, it should pay more attention to the Hou Ye's side, but they also have a lot of noise inside, so it is difficult to judge. However, the subordinates have a way to make them make up their minds to attack Lushun, but they don't know ...... Hou Ye's side."

"There's no need to worry about it over there, but it's okay for you to talk about it." Ma Ang waved his hand, very interested in Wang Hai's strategy.

Wang Wei and the others felt that the decisive battle on the five islands was fruitless, in fact, Xie Hong also had a headache, the time for the decisive battle here was not yet ripe, but it was not a way to let the route be cut off. Although the other party's intention to attack Lushun is stronger, after all, it is a guess, it is difficult to guarantee that there is no accident, and Xie Hong is not sure, so this matter is not big or small, and it is also a trouble.

"Whether it's pirates or families, most people who want to attack Goto are interested in immediate interests, but the situation in Wajima is ...... My lord, as long as the subordinates spread the news when they returned, they would surely strengthen their determination to attack Lushun. This is the truth that Wang Hai thought of in a flash of inspiration.

Ma Ang pondered for a moment and nodded, "This plan is very good, but Wang Baihu, you came out privately, if you go back like this......"

"If it was before, the subordinates would definitely not be able to protect their lives, but now that the Wang family is employing people, presumably the disposal will not be too serious, as long as they don't die, their subordinates can wait for the day when the Hou Ye will see the clouds, even if there is a ...... For the sake of the world, in order to repay the trust of the Hou Ye, his subordinates are also dying. Wang Hai replied with a resolute expression.

"Then, the official hereby promises you, if there is really an accident, Wang Baihu, you don't need to worry about your family, you have your own official to take care of it."

"Thank you, sir."
