Chapter 216: Zheng He
Cheng Ye brought Yi Xiaoge into the backyard hall, and the beautiful little maid served two cups of mellow green tea. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"Please, it's a three-year-old tea."
Yi Xiaoge took a small sip, and his mouth was suddenly full of fragrance, elegant and pleasant. This made him suddenly think that tea was one of the main materials for export in ancient China, and now the green tea in the trading center is just planted by players, where is it better than the system?
He made a secret note that he had to find the best tea and sell it to the trading center, which was one of the most important natural drinks in the world.
"Lord Cheng, I came here this time to inquire about you about Lord Zheng He." Yi Xiaoge said.
"Oh? Do you mean that Lord Zheng, who is about to go to Nanyang, I wonder what you want to ask about him? ”
Yi Xiaoge thought for a while and said, "I don't know if Master Cheng and Master Zheng are acquainted?" ”
Cheng Ye stroked his beard and said, "I know each other, I've had a few meals, but I'm not too friendly." How is it? Do you want to meet Master Zheng? ”
What kind of person is Cheng Ye, Yi Xiaoge's purpose is naturally known, Yi Xiaoge nodded undeniably and said: "Lord Zheng can promote the south to the West and broaden the horizons of the Chinese people, I admire him very much, and I want to discuss some insights with him." ”
"That's the case...... Cheng Ye said with a smile: "Lord Zheng He is indeed the most enlightened person today, and he will soon go to Quanzhou to inspect the shipbuilding progress of Wanfu Shipbuilding Division. ”
"Thank you, Lord Cheng!"
Yi Xiaoge returned to Snapper Island after leaving Chengfu, and at this moment tens of thousands of islanders and builders were sorting out and opening up the coastal area that Snapper Island was not too big and could be used to build forts. In addition, given that there is a hill with an altitude of one or two hundred in the middle of Snapper Island, Yi Xiaoge plans to build a ring of forts along the mountain for every fifty meters above sea level. In this way, a three-dimensional defense surface can be formed and the defense strength can be increased. Port Yi Xiaoge let Bug be as big as he could, and then the player will definitely find Snapper Island when he comes here, and there will inevitably be a battle for the affiliated islands, and the large port can ensure that the fleet has more teleportations each time.
A few days later, Cheng Ye informed Yi Xiaoge that Zheng He was about to go to Quanzhou and asked him to prepare. Zheng He is said to have been a eunuch in history, and because his original name was Ma Sanbao, he was also known as the eunuch of the Three Treasures. Zheng He's great exploits in world history were talked about by later generations and became a pioneer in navigation!
is about to meet the legendary historical celebrity, Yi Xiaoge is also very excited, and how to get the treasure ship drawings from Zheng He, Yi Xiaoge also died hundreds of millions of brain cells. In the end, there is no detailed explanation, so I can only take one step at a time.
Zheng He's convoy was very pompous, and more than a dozen carriages were escorted by dozens of cavalry all the way from the Quanzhou Post Road. Outside the west gate of Quanzhou, Yi Xiaoge and Cheng Ye waited for an hour before waiting. The convoy stopped at the gate of the city, and Cheng Ye stepped forward and waved in front of the carriage and said, "Just as the Lord is coming, Quanzhou Port is really full of splendor!" ”
Yi Xiaoge had checked Zheng He's information on the Internet before, and during the Ming Dynasty, when Zheng He went south to the West, he was appointed as the eunuch of the envoy and the eunuch of the chief soldier of the Qincha.
Soon, a small official in the carriage opened the curtain, and a middle-aged man wearing a red court dress and a blue and black black gauze official hat stepped on the back of the coachman. Yi Xiaoge looked over and saw that this person was full of energy, his face was white, and he had a graceful look. The eyes reveal profundity, the demeanor is generous and majestic, and there is a temperament that is not humble or silent.
"This ...... Doesn't it look like a eunuch? Yi Xiaoge observed carefully for a while.
"Master Cheng, I don't have to be so polite, let's go to the city!"
Zheng He said with a smile, which made Yi Xiaoge even more surprised, could it be that the TV series at that time were all lies? This Zheng He's demeanor is not sissy, and he is full of manhood, and the most important thing is not to speak sharply.
Cheng Ye's official position is two levels smaller than Zheng He, but it seems that Zheng He is quite easy-going, Cheng Ye led Yi Xiaoge to Zheng He and said to Yi Xiaoge: "Yi Gongzi is the envoy appointed by His Majesty today, Lord Zheng He!" ”
Yi Xiaoge hurriedly clenched his fists and said, "In Xia Yi Xiaoer, I have seen the envoy!" ”
"It turns out that you are the world's No. 1 Shang Yi Xiaoer who shocked my dynasty, you are really a hero and a young man, and you are really a talent when you see it today!" Zheng He looked at it carefully when he heard this, and then said with some surprise.
"My lord smiled, what I did was just insignificant, and my lord's upcoming mission to the West was an immortal cause that would be powerful and famous for all generations!" Yi Xiaoge quietly slapped the sycophant he had prepared.
Zheng He waved his hand and said with a smile: "Eh, this is wrong, this envoy is acting in accordance with His Majesty's will, if it weren't for Your Majesty's wise rule and creation of such a large patrol fleet, wouldn't it be a pipe to go south to the West?" It is Your Majesty who will leave a name for all generations! ”
Okay, I'll go to the emperor again. Cheng Ye and Zheng He made a few subtleties and everyone went straight to Sihai Building, and at noon, Sihai Restaurant was lively. The shopkeeper set up a banquet on the second floor, and Yi Xiaoge followed Zheng and Cheng Ye to the table and sat down.
"Lu Si, take an altar from Jiannan Burning Spring given to me by His Majesty, today coincides with Lord Cheng and Gongzi Yi here, it is really rare, it is necessary to drink it!"
"My lord really thinks of Cheng Mou, and it is really a blessing to be able to taste the imperial wine given by His Majesty!"
Yi Xiaoge didn't expect Zheng He to be so generous, Jiannan is a famous wine, or the emperor's imperial wine, I really don't know what it tastes like?
Zheng He's entourage quickly brought a jar of unopened wine from the carriage downstairs, and the yellow paper on the sealed altar was written with a few beautiful words on the imperial tribute wine Jiannan Burning Spring. Lu Si used a knife to pry open the sealed soil, and soon a refreshing aroma of wine spread out, and the entire second floor could smell it.
Yi Xiaoge couldn't help but be shocked, this TM is another fortune project, if you can find the emperor Lao'er to get a hundred and eighty altars. An altar auctions hundreds of thousands of gold coins, and those rich bigwigs invite guests to dinner on the island and pour a cup is simply face-saving!
"It's really not ordinary!" Cheng Ye is also quite excited, it seems that he is also a good drinker!
Zheng He asked Lu Si to fill everyone's porcelain cups, then picked them up and said, "Master Cheng, Master Yi, come and dry this cup!" ”
Yi Xiaoge picked up the wine glass and poured the wine into his mouth, and in a burst of coolness, the clear liquid went down the esophagus into the stomach, and the mouth and nose suddenly exuded an incomparable aromatic atmosphere, and the alcohol in the wine seemed to mobilize all the taste buds on Yi Xiaoge's tongue.
After a few glasses of wine, Yi Xiaoge felt like he was floating in a fairyland, which was so much better than what lemon and rum was. Yi Xiaoge took advantage of Zheng He's happiness now, so he asked, "My lord, I don't know when I will leave for the south?" ”
Zheng He glanced at Yi Xiaoge, thought about it carefully, and said: "The ship's tools used for the mission are still being manufactured, but the shipbuilder is old and weak. In addition, the shipbuilding timber is produced far away, which is really inconvenient, time-consuming and laborious, and there are a lot of waste materials. ”
When Yi Xiaoge heard this, his mind suddenly lit up, so he hurriedly said: "My lord, I have an idea in the next place, I don't know if you are interested?" ”
"Oh? What an idea! Zheng He's eyes lit up.
