As soon as he stepped onto the dock in Nagasaki, Chu Fan wanted to laugh.

As far as the eye can see, the eastern faces on the dock, except for the "Dawn", are all extremely short!

There were many people on the docks, including shogunate officials wearing high crowns; There are also forced laborers who wear hats and squat in the corner of the wall with a flat shoulder in their arms; There is also a ashigaru wearing bamboo armor and holding a spear - this name is still what Yan Ruxue told Chu Fan, which is equivalent to the warriors of the Ming Dynasty.

The biggest feature of all people is that they are short!

When Chu Fan saw Chen Shangren, who was half a head shorter than himself, bending down to talk to the shogunate official who looked like the dock manager, he couldn't help but laugh even more.

The official estimated that he was at most one meter four tall, and he was dressed like Zhou Zheng, and he raised his head and negotiated with Chen Shangren respectfully.

Just this official, Chu Fan already felt short enough, but when he saw this official beckoning to a man who looked like a businessman with a big beard, his eyes widened, this chubby businessman was actually half a head shorter than this official!

Looking at the funny appearance of the businessman moving his stubby calves and trying to run, Chu Fan couldn't help it, and laughed out loud.

Because he thought of the Lilliputian in the famous fairy tale novel "Gulliver's Travels" in his previous life, dare to love Jonathan? Swift probably had been to Japan before, so he was inspired by Lilliputia.

Chu Fan's smile didn't matter, but it attracted the attention of the official and the businessman, and the two of them turned their heads to look at him in unison, seeing the mockery in his eyes clearly, and then showed an angry expression, and protested at Chen Shangren.

Chen Shangren has come to the country of the Japanese many times, so he can naturally speak some Japanese words, pointing to Chu Fan and explaining to the two dwarves, I don't know what he said, the two dwarfs suddenly stopped, and the official even made a gesture at Chu Fan from afar.

Chu Fan was very curious, but he waited until the two dwarfs left and the laborers on the dock began to move goods on the "Dawn", then he walked to Chen Shangren's side and asked, "Shibo, why were those two Japanese people angry just now?" ”

Chen Shangren stumbled and said, "It's not because you make fun of them for being short. ”

Chu Fan couldn't help but have black lines on his face - these Oriental files are really glassy, and they didn't even say anything, but they just laughed, and they actually let them see it, it seems that for the sake of height, they are not less despised.

"Villain, the Japanese hate others the most for thinking they are short," Yan Ruxue behind Chu Fan reminded him, "Don't say it in your mouth, even if you bring it out on your face...... We Akito are better, the Japanese have a lot of respect for us, and if the Francophiles or the Dutch dare to laugh at them, the ronins will really draw their swords for this! ”

The more Chu Fan listened, the more curious he became, and blurted out a question, "Why do the Japanese respect us Ming people so much?" ”

This time it was Chen Shangren who replied to him, "It's not simple...... More than 20 years ago, our army beat the Japanese people in Korea enough to choke Guan Bai, where do they dare to be disrespectful to us......" The tone was full of pride.

Chu Fan suddenly realized, sure enough, the Oriental sons are born to bully the soft and fear the hard, and they are not comfortable if they are not beaten.

He had to be beaten up to show his virtue; If he thinks that his strength is weaker than his own, he will immediately turn into a hungry wolf with a mouth full of fangs.

During the Tang Dynasty, the Oriental people were beaten by the Tang Dynasty at the mouth of the Baijiang River, stopped, and honestly sent students to the Tang Dynasty, desperately learning the cultural etiquette of the country; In the Black Ship Incident, the shogunate was so frightened by the Western guns that he peed his pants, respectfully invited the foreign lords in, and copied various Western systems and technologies, wishing that even his hair would turn yellow and his eyes would turn blue; The most typical thing is that at the end of World War II, Japan's treatment of the American occupation forces was even more immeasurable, not to mention that MacArthur was as noble as the emperor, just calling on the women of the whole country to wash up and invite the American masters to be happy, which was enough for people to vomit for three days and three nights.

There is no way, Japan is such a perverted country, but Chu Fan feels that he is really lucky, and he coincidentally wore it to the end of the Ming Dynasty when he had just beaten Japan, and we also enjoyed the treatment of a superpower.

“…… That Shaozhi just now," Chen Shangren didn't pay attention to the joy on Chu Fan's face, and continued, "Originally, Huo'er was quite big, but as soon as I heard that Yixian was a showman, his attitude immediately changed, and I explained to him that you are a newcomer, and he no longer dares to pursue your ridicule." ”

"Huh?" Chu Fan looked at Chen Shangren in disbelief, he didn't expect that it was this Xiucai identity who helped him break the siege, "Our identity as a scholar is still useful in the Wa Kingdom?" ”

Chen Shangren straightened his waist and said proudly with his right hand on his beard, "Of course, the Japanese country has long admired the civilization of my Han family, and the clothes and etiquette are all copied from my Han family. ”

When he said this, Chu Fan couldn't help but straighten his waist, and a sense of pride spontaneously arose in his heart - don't look at our Ming Dynasty, we are already stormy, but in this era, we are still an out-and-out superpower!

While they were chatting, the wharf laborers had already taken out the tobacco crates in the bilge and piled them up on the ox carts.

"Hey, scoundrel, what is this?" Yan Ruxue had never been out of the bilge, and this was the first time she had seen those spiced tobacco, so she couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Tobacco." Chu Fan replied very succinctly.

"Tobacco?" Yan Ruxue's eyes widened, and she looked at Chu Fan suspiciously, "Don't tell me that it took so much effort to transport such a bunch of tobacco from Dengzhou?" “

"Ahem...... Precisely! Chu Fan touched his nose a little embarrassed, and then added, "My tobacco is not ordinary tobacco, it is definitely a hot commodity here." ”

"Shh Yan Ruxue rolled her eyes disdainfully and said, "Isn't it just tobacco, Quanzhou is everywhere, it's cheap, it's in demand?" How sought-after can it be? ”

Being questioned by his sweetheart made Chu Fan's face a little unbearable, and he pulled out a flue from a broken wooden box, "I'll tell you, just like this, 2 taels of silver!" I may not be able to sell it yet! ”

Yan Ruxue took the cigarette suspiciously, sniffed it, and then pouted, "Villain, I believe everything else you say, but I don't believe this matter either...... Can this thing be sold for 2 taels of silver? Why? ”

This time he really asked Chu Fan, and he couldn't explain it, so he had to lie and say that it could be sold so expensive anyway.

Before the two of them could figure out the case, the people on the "Dawn" personally carried the treasure chests in wooden boxes and got off the boat, and the group drove the ox cart to follow the extremely short innkeeper and walked all the way along the bank of the Urakami River.

Seeing that he was about to arrive at the hotel called "Fat Wind Pavilion", Chu Fan found that the guys in the team who had been to Nagasaki were obviously excited, and they snickered at the others.

Well? What kind of oddity is this?
