Although because of the accent, it is different from the pure north-based Mandarin of later generations, but at least it can be heard that it is Chinese, and it is Chinese!

However, this is also thanks to the fact that this is the Ming Dynasty, and it is the middle and late period after the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the capital has been relocated to Yanjing for nearly two hundred years, and the official dialect has gradually changed from the original southern Wu language to the northern official close to the Mandarin of later generations.

There's no way, it's too powerful to change the tone, let him listen to it as a modern person, it's completely a foreign language, and it's the most complicated kind.

Anyway, with the knowledge reserves of Qin and Qing, they can't understand the official language of the Han people before the Ming Dynasty.

"You don't seem to be in good order here." After waiting for a while, I saw that until the man who spoke Chinese returned to the house, the people around him who were watching the excitement were almost scattered, and Qin Heqing, who did not see the so-called sheriff, said meaningfully to Shimazu Yoshihiro beside him.

The sheriff, that is, the policeman, is not something that only existed in later generations, and it also existed in ancient times. It's just that it is left in the Ming Dynasty to arrest fast and serve the government, and on the side of the island country, it is the militia under the daimyo of various countries, but there are people who are in charge, and the affairs they are responsible for are not only the order management in the city, but also some other work, so the nature is different from the police, but it is similar to the urban management and inspection.

It can be said that regardless of the size of the country, the strength or weakness of the country, it is an institution that will exist in every feudal country.

The difference is only whether you will take the initiative to be responsible.

Obviously, the main city of the Shimazu family seems to be not very active in this regard......

"It's not a big deal." Yoshihiro Shimazu pouted.

It's just normal drinking and fighting, if this also needs to be dealt with by the security personnel, then they don't have to do anything else, just squat here in the merchant town to ensure that there are no idlers at the end of the day!

Of course, this is what she thinks in her heart, but she can't say it in her mouth, and it is a question in front of Qin Heqing, so no matter what the facts are, it is estimated that in the end, she will have to be taught a lesson by Shimazu Yoshihiro to vent the dissatisfaction in her heart.

"It's really a trivial matter, but if it can't be handled properly, this wind will rise, and it will affect the law and order atmosphere of the whole city. Of course, this is a matter for your Shimazu family, and I have no right to intervene, so you don't have to take it to heart, just treat me as nonsense. Qin Heqing smiled, plausibly and seemed to respond with deep meaning.

Shimazu Yoshihiro was silent, and after a while, he replied dryly, without emotion, "Regarding this, I will mention it to my eldest sister later." ”

"Hehe......" After a pause, Qin Heqing looked at the building with a somewhat unique shape and not a complete island-style building and asked, "By the way, do you know what kind of place it is?" ”

"Where?" Yoshihiro Shimazu wondered.

"It's the building that was thrown out before, what is it for?"

"That, it's a restaurant post opened by the Ming people here, specializing in receiving the Ming people who come to Satsuma to trade and some Southern Barbarian merchants, so it's a stronghold left by the Ming people on my Kagoshima Island." Shimazu Yoshihisa glanced at the building, and introduced in a flat tone without superfluous emotions.

"Stronghold?" Qin and Qing were surprised.

"Hmm."

"Since you know it's a stronghold, you haven't thought about getting rid of it, or what?" Qin Heqing asked puzzled.

"How? Straight smashed? Let's not say that the other party is operating according to the rules, there is no violation of the regulations, we have no reason to deal with it, what can we do just to destroy it? Won't it be long before it will be open again? What to do then? Do you continue to smash it? Once or twice may be no problem, but there are too many times, and the Ming people are not stupid, and they also know the truth of turning from light to dark, won't it be even more difficult to monitor when the time comes? And it will also affect the cross-border trade atmosphere here in Kagoshima, so that the transaction volume will be greatly reduced, and when the tax is gone, who will we go to collect the money? Shimazu Yoshihiro looked like, 'You're okay with your brain,' and he said angrily.

"So just leave him alone, so that even if something really goes wrong, we are not unprepared."

"Yes." Qin Heqing glanced at Shimazu Yoshihiro with a smile, and agreed with a smile, "It's just right, I'm more curious about Mingren's inn, let's go there and have a look." ”

"Whatever." Yoshihiro Shimazu doesn't care.

Then the three of them took another step and walked into the stronghold restaurant opened by the Ming people.

Suddenly, noisy voices and some golden-haired and blue-eyed Nanban foreigners came into Qin Heqing's eyes.

But what caught his attention even more was the group of people gathered in the corner of the restaurant, not only dressed differently from the surrounding merchants, but also had a very different temperament and feeling from the merchants, giving people a feeling of being out of place with the people around them.

Then at this time, Shimazu Yoshihiro's brows beside him furrowed abruptly.

"Why is she here?"

"Who?" Qin Heqing wondered.

Shimazu Yoshihiro did not answer, but walked over to the group of people with a serious face who had a different temperament and dress than the people around him.

Qin and Qing were the same, and walked to the side of the group of people with Ah Li.

"Yoshihiro Shimazu has seen the general, the general Gui'an." Yoshihiro Shimazu clasped his hands together and made a gesture similar to the fist salute common in later TV dramas, and bowed respectfully to one of the only two women in the crowd.

"I have a heart. These two are ......" The woman's figure did not move, she still maintained a sitting posture and sat on the wooden bench, nodded her head lightly, shifted her gaze, and fell to the side to look at Qin and Qing, who were strange, and did not salute her like Shimazu Yoshihiro, asked.

"They are my brothers and companions." Shimazu Yoshihiro's expression remained unchanged, and he introduced in an ordinary tone.

The identity will be arranged, and he will be directly placed in the position of the clan brother, but when he thinks about it, there is no problem at all - after all, he is from the Qin family, even if the two sides have not been in contact for more than a hundred years, and there has never been an in-law marriage, but the source of the bloodline is still from the family, so there is no problem with the clan brothers and sisters.

"Brother of the family?" The woman wondered.

After all, it's a Ming person, even if he knows something about Shimazu, the lord of the island country that suppresses the Ryukyu Kingdom and can't log in Kyushu, it's not like the local wealthy family in the island country, and even the origin of the Shimazu family can be said clearly.

"Qin Heqing has seen the general." Qin Heqing used his knowledge of history to make a Ming etiquette greeting that was in line with this era.

"Qin?" The woman was a little stunned when she saw this, and repeated with some surprise.

"Yes, Qin, Qin Shi Huang's Qin." Qin Heqing said with a smile.

"Oh?" The woman raised her eyebrows when she heard this, and her eyes couldn't help but flow on Qin Heqing and Shimazu Yoshihisa and Ah Li next to her.

The descendants of Qin Shi Huang seem to have a bit far away......
