When Miao Xun and Song Yanwu felt that Zhao Xu was on the big merchant ship, Zhao Xu was already chatting with those merchants enthusiastically. Pinshu.com(wWW.VoDtw.coM)()

"Where do you see people darker than the people on our side, I mean the color of the skin." Afraid that they didn't understand the color of his skin, he also pointed at himself deliberately.

"Isn't this a common thing for them?" These people actually brought back coconuts.

Those businessmen were also very strange to look at the young official in front of them, they still had a good impression of this young official.

After all, he didn't speak ill of them at the beginning like other officials, but his tone was quite gentle.

What's even more commendable is that he is very familiar with the place they went to, has he ever been there?

"Yes, my lord, the place we went to is exactly what you say, so you have been there?"

Oh, sure enough, so they really went to Hainan Island and Southeast Asia in the later generations.

"Oh, no, no, I haven't been there, I've just heard people talk about these places, by the way, I want to ask you if there are any people or officials in these places?"

That's what he cares about, and he always needs to know something about these places so that he can implement his plans later.

"This master, there is no official government in this place, but what is very strange in their place is that they are divided by tribes, and each tribe has a leader, and they are the biggest officials."

"By the way, these tribesmen are not easy to mess with, when we first entered their territory, they were suddenly attacked, so we also got a few brothers to read;."

Then Zhao Xu asked a few questions, what their weapons were, and what their customs were.

Sure enough, the answer is still what he wants the most, hehe, in this case, his plan will be advanced, since these places have sufficient resources, then you are welcome.

Then Zhao Xu said that as long as there was no problem with their goods, he would let them go back, but he still hoped that they could stay for one night and still have time to discuss with them.

The businessmen didn't know why the young official had left them behind, so they secretly asked a sailor beside them:

"Who is this young man, so young, is it the son of an adult?"

The most vicious thing about these businessmen is their eyes, and when they saw that the people around them were very respectful to Zhao Xu, they took it for granted that he was an official.

However, this official is a little younger, they think that he is the son and nephew of a certain senior according to the bad habits of five generations.

The one who was asked was a small water army, startled, and immediately looked left and right, and saw that no one was paying attention, and then he was relieved.

"It's good to pay attention to what you say, the son of a certain man, I think you are impatient."

These businessmen are monks who can't figure out what is this, and they are still looking for death, which is the royal law.

"You still don't believe your expressions, let me tell you, he is our current crown prince, and the son of a certain court official, what do you say you are not looking for death?"

The prince's father, of course, was the emperor, and it was taboo for them to say this, so the soldiers of the navy said that they were looking for death.

In fact, where does Zhao Xu care about this, even if he knows, will he still worry about these little things?

But ordinary people don't think like this, and it is a big rebellion to have such thoughts, which is caused by the education they have received.

When Zhao Xu saw them again that night, these merchants respectfully saluted them, saying that they didn't know that it was the prince before, and they were all offended.

In ancient times, the industrial and commercial hierarchy of the peasants was very strict, and it was true that the merchants were rich, but their status was not very high.

Ranked at the last level of this level, they all have an inferiority complex in their hearts, so they can be received by Zhao Xu, the genuine prince, and it is really smoke on the ancestral tomb.

"Okay, I don't mean to blame you, as the so-called ignorant are not guilty, don't be so restrained, sit down!"

These merchants did not move, you look at me, I look at yours, and none of them had the intention of sitting down.

"Okay, sit down, I don't want to raise my neck to talk to you, sit down." Zhao Xu said helplessly again.

"Thank you, Prince." The men sat down, but their butts were only half next to the stool.

Zhao Xu has no choice, let them go, the people of this era are really ......

"I called you here to discuss with you how to make you cooperate with the imperial court to conduct ocean trade, well, that is, to sell goods?"

As soon as I heard that I was doing business, there were people who were motivated, and among them was a shrewd businessman named Wang Yanmin, who would later represent the Great Song Dynasty in the world.

Not only did he earn a lot of gold and silver, but he also made great contributions to the colonization of the Great Song Dynasty.

"I don't know what the prince means by this cooperation, can you say it in detail, Xiaomin doesn't understand it very well."

Zhao Xu looked at this person, he didn't expect that this person's mind was okay, and he suddenly thought of the key point of this problem, this person is not simple.

"I don't know what this person is called?" Zhao Xu said with a smile.

"Ah, the prince Xiaomin's name is Wang Yanmin, his ancestors have been trafficked from north to south for generations, and then he came to my grandfather's generation to take the waterway, not to mention that this waterway is fast, faster than ever."

As soon as Wang Yanmin said this, he couldn't stop, and Song Yanwu next to him coughed a few times deliberately, this really worked, Wang Yanmin really stopped.

Who doesn't know him on the waterway, nonsense, you don't know him, you can still cross the Yangtze River directly, no.

"The prince is the owner of this merchant ship, and this ship is his, and he has a more cheerful personality, so there are more reads to say;."

Why did Song Yanwu speak for him, Song Yanwu mastered the defense of the north bank of the Yangtze River, and the businessmen who came and went did not give him any benefits.

Although Song Yanwu is an honest official, he also knows the truth that when the water is clear, there are no fish, so even if he doesn't want it, there is no way.

"Hahaha, Lord Song, I don't blame him, I like such people very much, and I also like to chat with such people without a sense of restraint."

When Wang Yanmin heard this, the prince was actually praising him, and his heart was full of laughter, and the prince was actually praising me.

"You didn't just ask me how to cooperate, before I answer your question, let me ask you a question, that is, when you come and go by water or sea, you have not encountered any robbers or the like."

"Prince, I won't tell you that this thing is often encountered, and this is what businessmen like us are afraid of."

Wang Yanmin ended up talking in a sentence, and he was still angry:

"The best result of encountering them is to rob us of our goods, give us a few small boats, let us go, and even snatch the ship and the goods, and kill people."

This is in line with the consistent style of pirates and bandits, and Zhao Xu is not surprised, he didn't expect such a thing to appear so early.

"Are these pirates really dehumanizing?" Zhao Xu couldn't help but admire.

"Dare to ask my lord, do you mean those who kill people and steal goods on the sea?" Miao Xun listened to this word quite freshly.

Well, I accidentally said the advanced word again, and the word pirate didn't appear at this time!

Well, I have to spend a lot of time explaining it, what kind of thing is it that can't be lived.

"This, sir, that's it, I think usually we see people who block the road and rob are called bandits and robbers, and they rob on the water, we call him water bandits, so at sea, I think it's better to call them pirates."

Zhao Xu explained in a language they could accept, but in fact, he didn't think so in his heart.

Zhao Xu used to turn over the history of that rice country, they made their fortune on pirates, and their king even participated in the distribution of spoils.

Pirates are criminals who specialize in robbing other ships at sea, and they are the same as bandits, so don't underestimate this profession.

The profession of piracy is quite ancient, and it is said that there have been pirates since humans had ships to sail.

When did humans have ships, this is a very old question, and the specifics are not known, but it can only be said to go back to ancient times.

Such a book only proves that the appearance of the pirate was in ancient times, but people called him differently.

However, it was after the 16th century that the profession of piracy flourished, with the opening of new shipping routes and the beginning of the Age of Discovery.

At that time, the king of the United States ordered a decree to be issued in support of piracy.

Sometimes the government gives pirates the right to represent the country in war, that is, these pirates can represent the country when they are in the open sea.

That is to say, you are bold to rob, we will support you in the back, and the whole country will support you in the back, what are you afraid of.

"Okay, the word prince is very apt, and you can leave a place in the history of literature."

Miao Xun pondered it and felt that this word was very good, which could be regarded as the founding of a sect, which was a pioneering initiative in the era of poor knowledge.

Whoever can come up with a new word or create a new genre is said to have a place in the history of literature.

In the past, you all grouped pirates and robbers, and there was no concept of pirates, but now someone has brought it up, and it really is the case when you hear it.

Everyone looked at him with a kind of admiration, and they wouldn't think anything of me if I went, this was a bit dangerous.

But Zhao Xu knew that it was because of one of his "pirates" that everyone admired, wouldn't it really be because he became a "master"

The word pirate was the first to be brought up by me, which is really a bit of a, Zhao Xu shook his head.
