"Uncle, what do you mean by that?" When Yang Biao heard Li Xiang's words, a question mark suddenly appeared on his head. Because he can't understand his uncle's thoughts, what's wrong with taking refuge in a rich and powerful man?

Of course, Yang Biao couldn't be clear about what Li Xiang thought in his heart.

After Li Xiang saw the warships of the Song Empire, he was very shocked at first. But when he assessed the cost, he was not calm.

According to Li Xiang's own assessment, the cost of these warships of the Song Empire was very expensive. If it is used for naval battles, then a battle will cost at least 100,000 taels of silver shells.

Such a fleet that costs money makes Li Xiang speechless.

Don't look at Li Xiang, he can be regarded as a rich man, but he won't be so wasteful.

Those shells are all money.

But the problem is that Li Xiang didn't figure out one thing, that is, it was not his turn to worry and feel distressed about this matter at all.

These are all Zhao Hongyu's problems, but what does he have to do with Li Xiang.

"Uncle, I see that you are so worried, this matter has nothing to do with us. If you want to have a headache, the crown prince will have a headache, and besides, people have the capital to squander, so we can't manage it. When Li Xiangxu babbled with his nephew what he thought, Yang Biao said to him undeniably.

Li Xiang thought about it when she heard this, and also felt that she was a little careless.

Is that something he can worry about?

It doesn't make any sense.

"Uncle, in fact, if you want me to say, if this crown prince is a rich man, and it will be good for us to be lavish. After all, when they really take refuge under his command, won't they be able to get a lot of benefits in the future? ”

Yang Biao looked at this problem, not as pessimistic as his uncle, but he thought very well.

After a moment of silence, Li Xiang nodded.

"You're right."

Yang Biao smiled: "Okay." Uncle, you don't have to think about it. Now that we're in Nagasaki, it's time to think about how to talk to the crown prince. This is the most important thing for us, isn't it? ”

Li Xiang sighed: "Alas! It seems that I'm really an old bone.,Sometimes my thoughts are always a little biased.,It's not okay to be unconvinced.。 ”

"Where's that, uncle?" , Yang Biao hurriedly said after hearing this. "You can't be old now, we people have to let you continue to walk forward. And this crown prince obviously takes a fancy to your old fame, so you should always say this now. What can we do in the future. ”

Yang Biao heard a little bit of other meaning from his uncle's words.

This made him panic a little.

"Biaozi, it's your kid who is smart, uncle, I just sighed a little and you kid heard that I want to retire?" , Li Xiang looked at her nephew with a smile and a smile.

Yang Biao said to Li Xiang seriously: "Uncle, I have followed you since I was a child, haven't I been following you for so many years. If I didn't even know what you were thinking, I'd have lived all these years in vain. ”

"Alright, Biaozi. I'll just say that. I have to hold on for you, don't worry, uncle, I know it in my heart. Li Xiang also replied with a smile.

Heard Li Xiang say this. Yang Biao was also relieved.

After all, the crown prince from the Americas was kind enough to them. To a large extent, it's actually looking at Li Xiang's face, after all, Li Xiang has been the king and hegemonic in the eastern sea area for many years.

To say the name. But it's much older than Zheng Zhilong.

When Li Xiang was on the sea, Zheng Zhilong didn't know what the road was.

If nothing else, let's just say the name Li Xiang. There is a lot of value.

Not to mention some of the relationships behind Li Xiang.

Although these networks have left a lot since the rise of Zheng Zhilong, the emaciated camel is not bigger than the horse.

Come to think of it, the crown prince from the Americas also saw this, so he released a lot of kindness.

Because in the eastern seas, the crown prince is considered an outsider.

If he wants to fit in, then he needs to find a 'local' person to take him in. And Li Xiang is a very good candidate, and Li Xiang is facing a crisis and can no longer protect himself, so it is very likely.

Although there is another person who chooses Zheng Zhilong, he has already taken refuge in the imperial court, and he is young and vigorous may not be willing to do so.

Therefore, only Li Xiang can choose.

For this issue, Yang Biao and Zheng Zhilong have already discussed it on Amami Island.

In the end, they only came to this conclusion.

Of course, the kindness of this crown prince of America is enough, and now it is up to Li Xiang and their side.

If the conditions on their side are too high and make the crown prince unhappy, then there is a high probability that this meeting will collapse, and if so, it will not be good.

Therefore, Yang Biao and Li Xiang both felt that after they met the crown prince, they must not mention too high conditions and requirements. We must seize this opportunity so that we and our brothers can have a way to live.

But when they came to Nagasaki and saw the warships of the Song Empire moored in the harbor of Nagasaki, Li Xiang suddenly felt that the capital he had relied on before seemed like a joke now.

This is not a small blow to him.

Yang Biao also saw this.

Therefore, he was afraid that his uncle would be disheartened and cause some accidents.

That's why Yang Biao said that just now.

Li Xiang is not a child anymore, although because of his age, he does not have the decisiveness he had when he was young. Man has also become cautious and excessive, but he has not yet become a fool.

For the sake of his family and brothers, even if he is really old and confused, he has to hold on now to make himself smarter.

It can be said that this meeting is related to the future and second half of his life for Li Xiang's family, as well as the thousands of old brothers behind him, and he can't help but don't want to be clear.

When the two spoke. Three Ming-style warships have sailed into the port of Nagasaki.

Afterwards, several guide boats sailed from the harbor and guided them slowly into the dock in front.

Because they entered the dock, Li Xiang and the others could see it more clearly.

The warships of the Song Empire passed by one by one, their hard hulls and the iron plates inlaid on them, as well as the thick cannon muzzles of the black holes, of course, Li Xiang and his party had ups and downs in their hearts.

The five-star red flag fluttering in the harbor and on the battleship kept swinging with the wind, making Li Xiang's eyes seem to be covered by a red cloud.

At this time, Li Xiang no longer had enough confidence in her heart. I went to talk to Zhao Hongyu about what conditions.

Just rushing to other people's fleets, can you still get this little capital of your own?

Come to think of it, I should lower my posture, so maybe I can have a good harvest.

Anyway, my current situation is already like this, if I shouldn't change, I'm dead. At least after taking refuge in this crown prince from the Americas, he doesn't have to face Zheng Zhilong alone, right?

Thinking of this, Li Xiang couldn't help but relax.

He really figured it out.

Why should he bother with some things?

Led by the guide ship, all three ships found berths.

With a slight jolt of the hull. The sailors on deck began to get busy.

Drop the sails, drop anchor, throw the cable to the shore, and then the widow on the pier picks up the cable. Then tied to the dock on the dock stake wood tied tightly.

Not far from the pier, a group of more than a hundred people, dressed in Li Xiang's opinion, was neatly lined up, and at the front of the queue, a young man in a black bearskin coat was looking at this side.

Behind this man. There is a girl in a ronin costume with a ponytail.

Ho ho, men's dress.

Li Xiang glanced at it quickly, and saw through the gender of Hattori Chizuru.

Subsequently. He continued to focus on Zhao Hongyu.

There is a scar on his face, it seems that he has gone through a battle, and he will definitely not be like those merchants in the Ming Dynasty, who speak in a crepe-like manner.

For martial artists, Li Xiang always has some good feelings.

looks okay, if there is no scar, it is estimated that it can be classified into the ranks of the little white face.

It depends on the age...... It doesn't seem to be very big.

Li Xiang looked at Zhao Hongyu, and when he estimated Zhao Hongyu's age, his heart trembled a little.

originally thought that this crown prince must be a person in his thirties and forties. But what he didn't expect was that this crown prince was surprisingly young.

Judging from the appearance, that is, about seventeen years old, this age is a little young.

Not even a beard...... As an Oriental, there will always be a little contempt for young people. Especially in the Orient in the seventeenth century, people were always influenced by this.

Isn't there a saying about it...... There is no hair on the mouth, and the work is not firm.

That's what Li Xiang thinks now.

When he judged that the girl on the horse was likely to be the crown prince of the Song Empire, he felt that because the crown prince was too young, what he said would be unreliable many times.

Falling off the deck, Li Xiang and Yang Biao walked off the warship with more than a dozen guards dressed in different costumes.

When Li Xiang and the others landed on the deck, Zhao Hongyu's side moved.

Zhao Hongyu turned over and dismounted, walked over quickly with Hattori Chizuru, a smile like a spring breeze bloomed on his face, and he came to Li Xiang with a quick pace, and then arched his hands with fists.

"I think this is the Sea Dragon King in person?"

Zhao Hongyu had a smile on his face and greeted first.

In fact, when Li Xiang was observing Zhao Hongyu, Zhao Hongyu was also observing Li Xiang standing on the deck.

Li Xiang's silver hair stood up, wrapped in a blue scholar's headscarf, and wore a half-body chain mail on the outside of the upper body, which I don't know if Lu Dao got from the Ming army, and a black coarse cloth cotton jacket inside.

He didn't wear any armor on his lower body, just a pair of fat black coarse cotton pants, but he was wearing a pair of black thick-soled cotton boots on his feet, and he was dressed a little nondescriptly.

On Li Xiang's waist, he was carrying a Ming Army-style long knife, which looked a little energetic.

He was chubby and ruddy, and his face was also full of a kind smile, and he looked like a fat old man in the country.

If you don't know his identity, it is estimated that no one will think that this is Li Xiang, the famous sea dragon king on the sea, which is simply the image of a small landlord in the countryside.

It is estimated that he only got half of his chain mail, but he didn't get the armor of the lower body.

Zhao Hongyu said in his heart.

"It's Li Xiang down there!" , Li Xiang stopped and arched his hand with his fists at the moment, and then responded loudly. "In person, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"

"Hahaha! What a sea dragon king, but let me wait, I look forward to your Excellency. ”

After getting the answer, Zhao Hongyu immediately laughed, and then walked over.

Li Xiang hurriedly bowed down, and apologized in his mouth: "Please also ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to atone for his sins, Li Xiang has some doubts about His Highness, so he made His Highness wait for this long time, this is all Li Xiang's fault, so Li Xiang is here to plead guilty." ”

Li Xiang tried his best to let himself speak in a crepe, but unfortunately he was a big old man at all, how could he learn to be like that.

And Zhao Hongyu is not what the other party imagined, and he is also nondescript in a mouthful of vernacular.

"What's wrong, you need to see me give you a proof, it's not wrong at all. Although I planted a sycamore tree to attract a phoenix, the phoenix also wants to see if this sycamore tree is a parallel import. ”

Parallel imports?

Li Xiang froze when he heard this, obviously he didn't understand what it meant.

Zhao Hongyu was excited for a while, knowing that he was speechless.

"Oh, our slang on that side, which means the head of the silver spear candle." , Zhao Hongyu explained.

Not! Li Xiang understood this meaning.

"Hurry up, let's not stand here, it's so windy. Come with me to the City Lord's Mansion, I've already arranged it over there, and everyone can talk about it somewhere if there's anything. ”

Zhao Hongyu is self-cooked, which makes Li Xiang a little unaccustomed.

However, being a pirate itself is also a rough one, and after a short period of unaccustomed habits, it will be safe.

"I'm a rough man, and I've been in the army for a long time, so we don't need those polite words between us. As soon as you return to the house, you can talk directly, and everyone wants to be comfortable. ”

Dealing with people of this era, Zhao Hongyu's language is really not powerful.

Therefore, he could only propose this to Li Xiang.

Fortunately, Li Xiang did not object to this, after all, he was not used to this kind of dialogue.

"Just like Your Highness."

Li Xiang replied with a smile.

After speaking, Zhao Hongyu turned around and asked people to bring the horses to Li Xiang and them.

Then, he took Li Xiang and left the dock,

"This prince doesn't seem to be so difficult to deal with, and then it's up to him to talk about it after he goes to Fuzhong."

After a short period of contact, Li Xiang's senses for Zhao Hongyu were good. (To be continued......)
