On Xiamen Island, Xu Xinsu, who was cursed by Li Kuiqi, was talking eloquently to a group of people.

Because of the common enemy, the Royal Maritime Trade Company, the major merchant gangs in Fujian have been united.

Xu Xinsu has great powers, and he is also connected with the red-haired ghosts of the big people, and single-handedly planned a strategy to deal with the Royal Maritime Trade Firm, and temporarily became the spokesperson of various merchant gangs.

Now, all the merchant gangs have sent people to Xiamen Island to discuss the situation in Fujian and discuss how to cooperate next.

Because Quanzhou is very close to Xiamen Island, Huang Wei, a member of the Quanzhou Business Gang, visited Xiamen Island in person.

"Ladies and gentlemen, then Li Yanzhi and Zheng Zhilong have been lured to Ben Harbor and are facing the attack of the Dutch, how powerful the Dutch red-haired ghost battleship is, I believe everyone knows that Li Yanzhi and Zheng Zhilong are definitely not the opponents of the red-haired ghost, and now most of the warships have been sunk and fallen into the sea to feed the fish.

Even if they can escape, they will inevitably lose their troops and lose their strength. We have united, seeing that there are enemies on all sides, it is unknown whether Zheng Zhilong will be used by Li Yanzhi, as long as we give a little sweetness, Zheng Zhilong will betray Li Yanzhi and give up participating in the Royal Sea Trade Company. If there is no Zheng Zhilong, how much waves can Li Yanzhi make? No matter how strong his army is, it can only fight on land, and when it comes to the sea, it is not for us to knead?

What's more, Li Kuiqi is now looting in Fuzhou, and was beaten to the city of Fuzhou by pirates, Li Yanzhi, the general soldier of Fujian, is a great dereliction of duty, as long as you operate a little, you can set off a storm of impeachment, so how can Li Yanzhi stay in Fuzhou safely? No matter how much the emperor trusted him, he could not face the turbulent court, so he could only withdraw his resignation.

As soon as Li Yan left, the Royal Maritime Trade Company went bankrupt, and this Fujian Maritime Trade is still the world of our people! ”

Xu Xinsu's eyebrows fluttered, as if everything was under control.

He is just a general guard on Xiamen Island, but he planned such a huge move, playing with the emperor's henchmen in the palm of his hand, and directly cutting off the tentacles that the emperor stretched out to the sea trade, which made Xu Xinsu so unhappy!

From now on, the gentry and maritime merchants in the entire Fujian, who dares not to look down at me Xu Xinsu!

From now on, I, Xu Xinsu, will become the spokesperson of the major business gangs in Fujian, what Zheng Zhilong, let Lao Tzu play! When Lao Tzu frees his hands, he will definitely kill Zheng Zhilong, the white-eyed wolf, and avenge Brother Li Dan and Brother Yan Siqi!

"Brother Xu, will Li Kuiqi directly capture Fuzhou? If the matter is too big, I am afraid that the emperor will send troops from other provinces into Fujian, and I am afraid that it will be troublesome at that time. Someone said worriedly.

Xu Xinsu shook his head with a smile: "Impossible, Li Kuiqi doesn't have that ability yet!" ”

"But Yu Zhigao, Zheng Zhilong, and Li Yanzhi have all left, where is there an army in Fuzhou?" That's humane.

Xu Xinsu said with a smile: "You have forgotten, there is still an army outside Fuzhou City, didn't Li Yanzhi recruit thousands of recruits not long ago?" ”

"But those recruits have only been recruited for more than ten days, so what's the use?" Someone was skeptical.

Huang Weihaha laughed: "Brother Xu is right, those recruits are useless, but it is okay to defend the city." The city wall of Fuzhou is tall, and there are thousands of young and strong guards, how can Li Kuiqi's gang of pirates beat down, most of them will hit their heads and bleed. ”

"Hahaha......" everyone laughed.

As long as Li Kuiqi can't capture Fuzhou, the matter will not be too big, and everything will be under control!

Li Kuiqi is just a chess piece used by everyone, and no one cares whether he is dead or alive.

"Ladies and gentlemen, after this war, the Royal Maritime Trade Firm will not be able to do it, but the interests of the Maritime Trade are so great, I am afraid that it will be difficult for the emperor to give up, and we must work together to protect everyone's interests." Xu Xinsu raised his voice.

"Yes, yes, yes."

"That's nature."

Everyone said.

The interests of sea trade are too great, far better than farming, and no one can give it up.

But.

"Li Yanzhi, they were sent by the emperor, and if we deal with them like this, it is tantamount to slapping the emperor in the face, is that okay?" Someone worried.

"So what?"

Before Xu Xinsu could speak, Huang Weiyi said solemnly, "The Son of Heaven does not compete with the people for profit, but the emperor bypasses the imperial court to set up a royal maritime trade firm and rob business with the small people, which is like the Son of Heaven?" ”

"The land in Fujian is barren, and the cultivated fields are far from being able to feed the people, so the people have no choice but to go to sea, risking all kinds of lives. The emperor is not sympathetic to the people, but wants to snatch food from the people's bowls, how can this work? As long as we Fujian people unite and resist together, even the emperor will be helpless against us! ”

"Okay, what the head of the Huang family said is good!" Xu Xinsu applauded and praised, "Everyone, as long as we are united, no one has to be afraid!" Even the emperor and the court can't do anything to us! ”

"However," Xu Xinsu changed his words, "after all, he is still the strongest in this sea, and he doesn't have enough strength to even fight pirates." ”

"You are representatives of various trading houses, and each trading house is very powerful, but I would like to ask you, how many ships do you send to Japan to the South Seas every year? And how many merchant ships sail overseas from Fujian every year? Xu Xinsu asked.

"What is Brother Xu going to say?" The representative of Zhangzhou Commercial Bank asked in a deep voice.

"There are at least two or three hundred ships that trade with Japan every year, and even more ships go to the South Seas of Luzon, and the ships of the major trading houses together are probably less than half of them. Xu Xinsu said with a smile.

Everyone shook their heads, of course they didn't want to, who would think that they would make less money? However, the interests of maritime trade are so great that countless Fujian people rush to it, how can they take all the benefits into their own hands? It's impossible!

"How could it be?" Xu Xinsu said with a smile, "You are all representatives of major commercial houses, and the masters behind the major commercial houses are all gentry from various provinces, and this Fujian is still yours in the final analysis." As long as we join forces, not to mention anything else, it is still easy to control the entire Fujian sea trade! ”

"Brother Xu is saying?" Huang Wei's eyes lit up.

"Didn't the red-haired ghost form some East India Company? Why can't we form one? Xu Xinsu said with a smile, "The major commercial houses have sent ships and people, and also set up such a company, recruit seafarers for strict training, equip seafarers with sophisticated firearms, and install Hongyi cannons on ships, with your strength, it is easy to form a fleet of 100 three-masted ships and tens of thousands of seafarers, not to mention the sea surface of Fujian, it is the sea surface of Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Guangzhou, and it is also the strength of our fleet!"

All the maritime merchants who go to sea to trade must rely on us to breathe, otherwise they will not be able to go to sea! Then we can make a rule that ships can only go to sea with the permission of the company, and you think about how great the benefits will be! ”
