"Shopkeeper, it's not good. (The fastest update speed is on Aishang Novel Network biquge.info)" At the counter of the Fushun Bailian in Naha, a young man sent by Huang Xufu to keep an eye on the Dongning merchant fleet reported profusely with a sweaty head. "The boats you always let the little ones keep an eye on have just set sail, and the little ones have specially gone to the dock to inquire, and the people at the berthing place have heard from the director over there that they can go back to Taiwan when the shipping route is open."

"The route is open?" Huang Xufu's face suddenly changed, and he couldn't help muttering again. "The route is open!" He was a little confused about the situation, could it be that Dongning had surrendered? But how could the young man have definite information, so he made a decision. "You prepare some gifts, and follow me to visit Boss Ying of the Taiwan Strait Business Federation."

"Brother Huang, said that Cao Cao Cao arrived, a certain person was just on the way to the people below, and someone came when he smelled it," Ying Tainong led Huang Xufu to the living room to sit down, and when the tea came, he asked with a little sarcasm. "I didn't expect to send the boat out this morning, and my brother came to the door before noon, and the speed is really fast."

"Brother Ying, is this complaining that my brother has ignored you these days?" Although Huang Xufu was embarrassed, he was still able to bend and stretch, so he responded with a shy face. "Speaking of which, we pay attention to doing business and don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, it doesn't matter about going in and out, and I'm embarrassed to be a guest for my brother."

"So, Brother Huang came prepared this time." Ying Tainong smiled. "Okay, I'll listen to you."

Huang Xufu also tore off his disguise and only asked, "What does it mean that this route is open?" Didn't the imperial court send a large army to attack Taiwan? Isn't it that the lord of your vassal has already submitted to Wang Hua and cut his hair and entered the Hajj? ”

"Brother Huang's words are so good, it doesn't make sense." There was a hint of sarcasm on the corner of Ying Tainong's mouth. "Why didn't your army conquer Taiwan be wiped out? That's biased. ”

"The army of the conquest of Taiwan was completely annihilated? Brother Ying is really good at laughing, who doesn't know that you just suffered a big defeat in Penghu two months ago, when Shi Junmen only brought 30,000 people, and now it is a full 50,000 troops. Huang Xu Fu was about to shake his head, but suddenly saw the expression on Ying Tainong's face, he was stunned, and then confirmed incredibly. Could it be that Brother Ying didn't tell a lie, is it really the defeat of the imperial army? Ying Tainong nodded, and Huang Xufu almost knocked over the teacup in front of him, muttering in his mouth. How is this possible, how is this possible, 50,000 troops, 50,000 troops. Muttering a few words, Huang Xufu stared at Ying Tainong's eyes. Brother Ying, Lord Ying, this is a big matter, you can't talk about it. ”

For Huang's gaffe, Ying Tainong expressed a certain understanding, but understanding is understanding, and cynicism is inevitable: "What is impossible, the army is in danger and danger, it is normal to lose first and then win, win first and then lose, why are you only allowed to win and not lose, which saint's truth is this?" ”

Ying Tainong was talking, and Huang Xufu grabbed his hand: "Where is the Admiral Shi Junmen now?" ”

Regarding the other party's eagerness, Ying Tainong took the time to compare it with his hands: "This news is worth a hundred quintals of raw silk." ”

"My God, it's all this time, and you're still thinking about money." Huang Xufu was about to jump to his feet, but Ying Tainong looked like he didn't listen, and Huang Xufu had no choice but to respond. "By you, by you."

"That's right, the rules were set with Lord Qiu at the beginning, it's not good to break it casually, come here, bring a pen and paper, and let the shopkeeper Huang make up the IOU." Looking at Ying Tainong with a bad smile on his face, Huang Xufu, who gritted his teeth, had to pick up a pen and write a note urgently, and when the note was read and put away clearly, Ying Tainong gave an answer. "Shi Lang killed himself, and his two sons, Shi Shixiang and Shi Shiji, surrendered their corpses to this domain."

Huang Xufu gasped, stabilized his mind, and continued to ask, "How many of the generals who accompanied the expedition are still alive?" ”

"It's too much to say, in this way, there is a bottom account here that can be handed over to Brother Huang, but?"

"But what, isn't it silk and silk?" Huang Xufu said eagerly. "Say a number, I'll write it to you!"

"Refreshing!" Ying Tainong complimented duciously and reported a number. "Fifteen hundred quintals of raw silk."

Huang Xufu gasped, this is just the list of surviving generals, with this number, if you want to exchange these generals back, wouldn't it really be impossible to do it without 1.8 million taels,

However, as he said, this matter was very important, so he only hesitated for a moment, and wrote an IOU himself, so Ying Tainong handed him a thick list, and at the same time said: "This is the screening list sent from Taiwan with the ship yesterday, and the latest one will wait for the next time the ship comes, and I will have someone send it directly to your business at that time." ”

Huang Xufu casually flipped through a few pages, starting with a few generals on the first page, and ending with the capital division and garrison on the last page, hundreds of names and their official vacancies were densely filled with dozens of pages of books.

After a cursory look, Huang Xufu asked: "Except for those who have not been screened, those who are not on the list are all martyred." ”

"There are also a few who surrendered, but naturally they were not listed above." Ying Tainong responded. "Of course, Brother Huang wants to know which ones, just pay for it, anyway, since they are sincere, they are ready for their family to be affected."

"It's so pathetic!" Listening to Ying Tainong's words, Huang Xufu suddenly came out of his mouth, and he didn't know whether he was saying that Ying Tainong was pathetic in the eyes of money, or that those who surrendered to Zheng Jun were betrayed by Zheng Jun and pitiful, of course, it certainly didn't mean that the matter of Han people fighting in the same room seemed sad.

"No way, who told you to smash Taiwan to pieces." Ying Tainong responded confidently. "More than 20,000 strong, just the silver of the pension will flow into the galaxy, so I have to ask you to help a few."

"Okay, I'll give you another five hundred quintals of raw silk." Huang Xufu quoted a price and said to death. "If it's too low, there is no need to say it again, anyway, in a few months, we will be able to know the exact news from Fujian."

"Not necessarily." Ying Tainong said this meaningfully, and then he smiled. "500 quintals is 500 quintals, which is more or less a subsidy." After that, he took out a thin booklet, and when the shopkeeper finished writing the IOU, the two handed over the money with one hand and delivered the goods with the other. "The money and goods are gone, Brother Huang still has any questions, just ask."

"I'm sorry to ask, these tens of thousands of taels will be gone, if you ask again, the Fushun joint will be tossed out." Huang Xufu put the two booklets close to his body, stood up and arched his hands. "Farewell!"

"Don't send it!" Ying Tainong said hypocritically. "Do you hope to have the opportunity to continue to communicate with Huang Zhangsu in the future?"

Speaking of which, in addition to those expatriates, the people who were most worried about Dongning being occupied by the Qing army were the Japanese wealthy merchant groups that had lent money to Dongning to buy supplies. After the Battle of Penghu, the news of the defeat of Dongning came, and the whole country of Japan was in an uproar. Thinking that the investment of hundreds of thousands of dollars might be wasted in an instant, these wealthy merchants stared at Ming Zheng's merchant house in Nagasaki and the Tagawa clan, only because Dongning's goods in Japan were not enough to make up for their losses and the distribution ratio had not been sorted out within the borrower, so they did not start for a long time. Rao was like this, and the personnel of the Tagawa clan and the Ming Zheng Merchant Hall were still under surveillance, besieged, and were quite frightened. As for Zheng Kuan, Zheng Zhi, Zheng Rou, Zheng Yu and others, who were later sent to Japan for refuge by Zheng Kezang, as soon as they came to Nagasaki, they were also targeted by the ronins hired by wealthy businessmen.

"I thought I was leaving the tiger's mouth, but I didn't expect to enter the wolf's den again, that bastard boy is afraid that he was premeditated."

"It would be better to stay in Dongning than to know this, even if you finally surrender to the Qing captives, it may not be worse than the current situation."

"Then why don't you learn from the second brother and the third brother and stay in Dongning?" Zheng Zhi took a glass of sake and looked at Zheng Rou and Zheng Yu coldly. "I have no way with the sixth and eighth children, people are a thorn in our eyes, we must be sent away, you can stay in Taiwan and live and die together, don't you think it's too late to say this now?"

"It's not too late, you can also go to the mainland from Nagasaki to join the Qing court, just like the fifth uncle back then." Zheng Kuan also said with a slight mockery. "Come to think of it, that kid will be happy to see you surrender to the captives."

"Will the Japanese let us go?" Not to mention, Zheng Rou really moved the idea of reducing the Qing, but it was declared bankrupt because of Japan's strict surveillance before it was implemented. "If this battle is won, that kid can win, Lao Tzu will go back to Dongning for everything, so as to save the evil anger of the little devil again!"

"Save it, even if we can win, that kid doesn't want us to go back," Zheng Yu was also sober at this time. "Besides, if we really win, our situation will be different, so why do we need to go back and suffer from that kid's pickle."

"Uncle, uncle, it's not good." Several people were boringly mocking each other, and a Zheng Wen's son suddenly stumbled in. "Japanese, a lot of Japanese have come to the outside of the house, and the interpreter said that Nagasaki is going to enter the house to meet the uncles."

Could it be that the limit is really coming, a few people are as pale as dirt, but they don't see each other, but the Japanese don't leave, and they hold on for a long time, and finally a few people let each other into the house, but they hear an unbelievable sentence: "A few ministers, for the evil deeds of those thugs, the lower officials apologize on behalf of the shogunate, please rest assured, there will be no villains to harass your mansion in the future, please live in Japan with peace of mind"

"What is this?" Looking at the compensation offered by Japan, several people looked at each other. "Did I hear me right? When did Nagasaki Gojo become so good at talking? Mo is not."

Zheng Wen completed Zheng Zhi's words: "Didn't Dongning's side really win?" ”

While they were speculating, someone reported that Tagawa Jiro Saemon was coming, and the arrival of this grandfather's uncle confirmed the doubts in their hearts, and they had won, and the Toning ship that entered the port brought the latest battle report.

The mystery was solved, but the problem was not solved: "Dongning is afraid that he won't be able to go back, let's not sit back and eat empty, let's just take the money to form a fleet, think about it, that kid shouldn't obstruct it?"
