The speed at which the Chen family raised money was much faster than Li Yuanqing imagined.

That night, just when he arrived, Chen Yougen sent someone to inform Li Yuanqing that they were ready for one million taels of silver.

Even, they didn't borrow silver from others, they just stored silver in a few foreign banks and money banks.

But if it is according to common sense, to withdraw so much silver at once, there must be an appointment process, so that foreign banks and money banks can be prepared, but the Chen family is in such a hurry and can withdraw cash smoothly, which is naturally self-evident.

The night was already dark, and the sky was gloomy.

The fine pieces of rain, accompanied by the melancholy sea breeze, make people's mood, and they can't help but be a little depressed, as if the sky and the earth are about to be torn apart.

On the dockside, Li Yuanqing stood under a piece of oilcloth at the bow of the boat, quietly looking at the ethereal and deep sea in the distance.

Next to him, Xiaohe was carefully helping Li Yuanqing peel mangoes.

In the days when he came to Southeast Asia, Li Yuanqing's wives and concubines quickly fell in love with these tropical fruits, and every day, the soldiers had to go to buy a large cart.

Especially mangoes, the price is cheap, very delicious, long and cute, which is very pleasing to women like Li Yuanqing.

Xiaohe's craftsmanship of peeling mangoes has already been very skilled, and in a short time, an orange mango has been peeled by her, leaving only the tender ~ juicy flesh.

"Master~, ah."

Li Yuanqing smiled, opened his mouth, and let Xiaohe carefully put the mango into his mouth.

After finishing it, Xiaohe looked at Li Yuanqing with joy, "Master, is it delicious?" This is the sweetest fruit a servant has ever tasted. What do you think? ”

Looking at Xiaohe's proud little face, Li Yuanqing smiled slightly, and his mood suddenly brightened a lot, "It's okay." However, this thing is a bit raw, you eat a little less, otherwise it will be troublesome to have diarrhea. ”

Xiaohe's little face turned red, and he was about to say something, but at this time, there was a sound of 'oh oh' footsteps on the deck on the side, and Niu Gensheng ran up quickly.

"General, everything has been taken care of. More than 20 ships of fire oil have been transported, and the Chen family is also ready, and at noon tomorrow, we will escort them to the trading place. ”

Li Yuanqing nodded, suddenly smiled, and patted Niu Gensheng's shoulder hard: "Gensheng, it's hard work." Go get some rest. Tomorrow, in the middle of the day, the official gathering! ”

"Yes!"

Niu Gensheng left, Xiaohe had already peeled a mango again, and said coquettishly: "Master, eat another one." ”

Li Yuanqing reached out to wrap his hand around her little waist and kissed her pretty face, then ate the mango in her little hand, and said with a smile: "Xiaohe, tonight, you sleep with your grandfather." Tomorrow morning, don't forget to wake up. ”

In the first half of the sentence, Xiaohe was still full of joy, but when she heard the second half of the sentence, she couldn't help pouting.

However, if he can accompany Li Yuanqing, sooner or later there will be a time when the melons are ripe, so he hurriedly said: "Yes, master." ”

…………

On the big bed in the room, Xiaohe beside him, like a kitten, leaned on Li Yuanqing's arms and had been sleeping deeply for a long time.

But although Li Yuanqing is warm nephrite in his arms, he does not have the slightest lust~ desire, let alone the slightest sleepiness.

The sages said: "Don't be happy with things, don't be sad with yourself." ”

But~~, even at this level of Li Yuanqing at this time, he still can't do it!

Tomorrow's battle is really crucial!

It's like the common people of China in later generations, with tunnel warfare and mine warfare, facing the 38 big cover of the little devils.

Whether you can carry it or not, whether it is a dragon or a worm, is a matter of one move!

Looking at the thunderbolt that crossed the sky outside the window, Li Yuanqing sniffed Xiaohe's green silk vigorously, hugged her small waist, and slowly closed his eyes......

…………

Before dawn the next day, Li Yuanqing had already gotten up.

Although Li Yuanqing's movements were already very light, Xiaohe's nerves had been tense, and he was suddenly awakened, seeing that Li Yuanqing had already gotten up, he hurriedly said: "Ah." Master,,, servant is a little overslept. What time is it? Right? ”

Li Yuanqing smiled and pinched her little face affectionately with his big hand, "It's okay." Sleep more. When the master comes back tomorrow, the master will take you shopping, and by the way, go to have a good meal. ”

Xiaohe was still a little girl after all, and she was immediately overjoyed, and gave Li Yuanqing a fragrant kiss with a smile.

After a brief tidying up, Li Yuanqing quickly got off the boat and came to the dock.

Here, the Chen family has already prepared, dozens of domestic servants, plus two or three hundred local laborers, will be a large wooden box, and begin to resist on the ship.

Seeing Li Yuanqing get off the boat, Chen Yougen hurriedly greeted him, "Li Junmen." ”

Li Yuanqing nodded, "Master Chen, how are you preparing?" ”

Chen Yougen hurriedly said: "Li Junmen, it's almost over. After loading the ship, let's go to the trading place. ”

Li Yuanqing glanced up at the sky, "Master Chen, today, I'm afraid it's going to rain!" When do they say to come? ”

Chen Yougen hurriedly said: "These dogs don't tell the truth, so let us go to the trading place and wait first." ”

Li Yuanqing smiled: "It's okay." Has Chen Ye had breakfast? Come and eat with Yuanqing? ”

Chen Yougen still had the intention of having breakfast at this time, but Li Yuanqing spoke, and he couldn't refute Li Yuanqing's face, so he nodded hurriedly.

The breakfast is simple, but it is very nutritious, with fish and shrimp, and it tastes good.

Chen Yougen obviously didn't have much appetite, but Li Yuanqing had a big appetite and ate five or six beef pancakes.

Chen Yougen couldn't help laughing and said, "Li Junmen, it's still young!" When I was young, I could eat five of these pancakes. ”

Li Yuanqing smiled: "Master Chen, tomorrow morning, I will invite you to eat this beef pancake again, and I guarantee that you can also eat five." ”

Chen Yougen was stunned for a moment, and reacted for a moment, tears couldn't help but flow out, and he arched his hand to Li Yuanqing and said, "Li Junmen, everything, everything is left to you!" ”

Li Yuanqing nodded heavily, "Master Chen, don't worry, Yuanqing will do his best!" ”

…………

A million taels of silver, which is not a small amount.

Even with so much labor, by the time everything was loaded, it was already past nine o'clock.

Li Yuanqing did not hesitate, and with a wave of his hand, more than a dozen large ships of the Ming army sailed towards the depths of the ocean.

Before, when negotiating the location of the transaction, the representative of the executioner Jack's side really had a lot of moths.

But because of Li Yuanqing's guidance, Chen Yougen also bit a bite, and the silver two must be escorted by Li Yuanqing's big ship, and the trading place is set in a neutral place.

Although the representatives of the executioner Jack's side were very dissatisfied, they saw that the Chen family's money was ready, and Li Yuanqing's broken ships were okay to transport individuals and goods, and they had no combat effectiveness at all, so they agreed.

In this way, everything is already on track.

The only variable is that the weather is not very good today, the sky has been overcast, and I don't know when, it will rain.

At about two o'clock in the afternoon, the fleet arrived at the small bay of the trading island on time, anchored the fleet in the bay, and lit three beacon fires high on the beach.

This is a signal to trade.

In this era, navigation was actually somewhat similar to aviation, and once the shipping route was determined, merchant ships, fishing boats, including war ships, generally did not easily covet and change the course when it was not wartime.

Because the sea is ever-changing, you may not be able to guarantee safety on the waterway, let alone not on the waterway.

Coupled with the fact that it was storm season and there were few fishermen out fishing, the island was close to Brunei's home port, but there was no need to worry about anyone else noticing.

Not to mention, Jack, the executioner, is almost where this sea area is comparable to the official fleets of several great powers, who dares not to open his eyes and 'jump the gods' under his nose?

But to the silence of the crowd, from two o'clock in the afternoon until noon the next day, the executioner Jack's fleet never appeared.

Including nearby patrols and sentinels, there was not a single shadow of a ship.

On the side of the temporary camp on the beach, Chen Yougen was already a little anxious, last night, he almost didn't close his eyes all night, his eyes were a little blood-red, and he paced back and forth in the shade of the trees.

"These, these shit's days, they, aren't they coming? This, this ......"

Li Yuanqing smiled and handed Chen Yougen a pot of wine: "Master Chen, don't worry. We've been waiting here. Jack the Executioner must have known that he would come! ”

At this time, the backwardness of communication methods is doomed, and many things that have been planned are likely to have unpredictable variables because of the communication gap.

If Jack's fleet did not appear, Li Yuanqing's follow-up, the Spanish warships led by Huang Guoshan and Li Sansheng could not appear in the nearby seas, and they could only retreat in the bay of the opposite continent, judging the timing by feeling.

This time, the sons and daughters on this side of the bay will have to bear more pressure.

But with Li Yuanqing personally sitting here, the sons and daughters have the backbone, even if there is pressure, they are not afraid.

After all, these sons and daughters are all veterans and elites, and they have followed Li Yuanqing for so many years, what battles have they not seen?

But at this time, even with Li Yuanqing's comfort, Chen Yougen's mood was still not high, and he had no energy.

Li Yuanqing is no longer reluctant.

This kind of thing, just be able to stand up on your own!

Chen Yougen is in his forties, and he can mix to the current scale, and his heart is by no means as fragile as it seems.

Until the evening, almost just when Chen Yougen was about to despair, a huge fleet shadow suddenly appeared in front of the bay.

In the afterglow of the setting sun, the white skull banner on a black background looks like a demon crawling out of hell, eerie and hideous.

Master Ma couldn't wait for a long time at this time, and hurriedly screamed: "Li Junmen, master, here, here!" ”

"Huh? Where is it? ”

Chen Yougen couldn't help but be overjoyed, and hurriedly looked up at the front.

But as soon as he saw the terrifying scene like a mirage in front of him, he couldn't help but be stunned, and he couldn't say a word for a long time.

Li Yuanqing also had some waves in his heart.

Although this executioner Jack's fleet is not a regular army, but judging by its structure and formation, I am afraid that it is more elite than the regular army!

"Master Chen, here!" Li Yuanqing looked at Chen Yougen with a smile.

"Huh?"

Chen Yougen came back to his senses and said busily: "Li Junmen, let's, what should we do?" ”

Li Yuanqing smiled: "Let's wait here for them to come over." ”

Chen Yougen reacted at this time, and hurriedly greeted the slaves around him: "Quick, quickly hit the white flag!" ”

The white flag is also a signal.

In a moment, more than a dozen slaves of the Chen family were busy holding the white flag in their hands and standing on the beach waving desperately.

At this time, the fleet of the executioner Jack in front, with more than a dozen small boats, drove ahead, as if to explore the way.

Li Yuanqing's eyes narrowed slightly, quietly watching all this.

If this dog doesn't go on the road every day, then ~~, you can only fight hard by night!

Fortunately, after the small boat in front of him had crossed the way, Jack's large fleet of executioners slowly drove in along the central entrance of the bay!
