Chapter 325: A Master of Pretending to Be Confused

Eloyin felt that in the matter of Luzon, the probability of the Ming people making trouble was at least ninety percent.

It was his instinct, and his instinct never missed.

Just like Zheng Zhilong, the general soldier of the Ming Dynasty in front of him, it seems that he doesn't care about the situation in Luzon at all, but he always feels that something is wrong with the other party. As for what as long as the rebellion is put down, the conditions are casually mentioned, which is simply nonsense. Oraza asked him to come to Xingshi to ask for his guilt, not to ask them to make conditions.

Elo Yin felt that he had made the right bet because he saw Zheng Zhilong's intentions.

"Oh? So sincere? Zheng Zhilong raised his eyebrows.

"That's nature. Mr. Zheng and we have always been partners, and although there were some unpleasant things a few days ago, it will not hurt the friendship between the two parties. I have heard for a long time that Zheng Zongbing is the most righteous, and now that his friends are in trouble, Zheng Zongbing will definitely not sit idly by. And as Zheng Zongbing's best friend, we will naturally not be stingy. ”

"Hahaha! What is your name? ”

"Eloyin."

"Eloyin, you're a good talker! But then again, you Luzon is so far away from Taiwan, how can I help you? ”

"Right now, it's the Akito who is leading the rebellion on the island. With Zheng Zongbing's prestige, as long as Zheng Zongbing can pass on a word, those people naturally dare not disobey. ”

"You think too highly of me, I'm just a small general soldier in Daming now, how can I have any deterrent power at all." Zheng Zhilong was very modest. "Well, they may not be afraid of me, but I have a lot of soldiers and ships. Shall I send 300 warships and 10,000 soldiers to Luzon to help you quell the rebellion? ”

"Absolutely never!" Eloyin hurriedly stopped.

What are you kidding, you take so many soldiers and warships to Luzon that you must not scare the Governor to death?

"Zheng Zongbing, there are only a few hundred Ming people who rebelled on the island, and it is not worth such a mobilization. All you need to do is send a message, and you can mention it! ”

"Just one word will do the trick?"

"It works!"

"No need to send troops?"

"No, you don't!"

"You can put forward any conditions?"

"As long as we can do it!"

"That's it..."Zheng Zhilong touched his beard, as if considering the feasibility of this matter again. It stands to reason that I should not meddle in your Luzon affairs. But since you're so sincere, I'll give it a try. As for the conditions, you also know that what I lack most at the moment is food. I will not bully you, but I will do what the lion speaks of.

Isn't it time for the rice to ripen in a few days? How about the harvested grain continue to be sold to us? Last season, you won 2 million mu, and this season you will definitely not plant less, so it will not work, sell us the harvest of 5 million mu, and pay 400 catties per mu. How is it? ”

"Just buy food?" Eloyin was a little surprised, is it so easy to speak?

"Buy only grain! Alas, our Ming Dynasty is now full of disasters and famines. Although there are high-yield grain varieties, droughts, floods, and locust plagues will not grow even the best seeds. It's not too comfortable to guard the big granary of Luzon, like you! ”

"Mr. Zheng has an overreputation. In that case, I will go back and report to the Governor and make this matter happen as soon as possible!" "....Eloyin figured it out. Zheng Zhilong sent people to the island secretly to make trouble, but he was afraid that the next harvest of grain would not be sold to them. As for the lack of grain in the Ming Dynasty, there is no doubt about this, otherwise they would not have sold such high-yield seeds to others, just to recover some grain. Didn't you see that I didn't want to sell grain to them last time, Zheng Zhilong was in a hurry to send troops.

"Good!" Zheng Zhilong stood up. "I'll send a boat to you?"

"No, no, I'm here by boat."

After the two exchanged politeness, Zheng Zhilong sent Elo Yin out.

After Eloyin left, Zheng Zhilong immediately went to the yamen and met Shi Bangyao.

"Si Ming Gong! Guess who just looked for me? Zheng Zhilong asked mysteriously.

"Red-haired ghost?"

"Huh? How does Siming Gong know? ”

"I've been looking for you for two days, don't you want to see you? Looking for you for the Luzon rebellion? ”

"Hey, I forgot about that. Sure enough, he couldn't hide anything from Si Minggong. The red-haired ghost came to me and asked me to help them put down the rebellion. ”

"Oh? How so? ”

"It seems that they already know that we are behind the trouble, but they don't dare to say it directly. He also said that as long as he could help them resolve the rebellion, the conditions would be mentioned casually. ”

"And then you said you wanted to buy food?"

"Haha, yes! I said that as long as they could sell us 5 million acres of grain, I would try to help them. ”

"You're a master of pretending to be a lake. If the yield of rice in Luzon this season is reduced, what will they sell to you? ”

"They've teased me once, and I'll let them go the second time?"

"Have you reported this to Your Majesty?"

"Oops! If you don't say it, I really forgot! I'm going to find Shen Lian! After saying that, he left in a hurry.

Shi Bangyao smiled and took a sip of tea, Zheng Zhilong respected him very much, even if it was a military operation, as long as it did not involve confidentiality, he would talk to him. The two worked together very happily, and if this plan could be realized, he would naturally be indispensable.

Zheng Zhilong reported the matter to Zhu Youzhen through Shen Lian.

Zhu Youzhen didn't say anything, only said that he would let him do it.

On the other hand, Eloyin returned to Manila, but did not see Olaza. Upon inquiry, he learned that the fighting had been blocked, and Oraza had gone to Baranga. So he prepared to take another boat to Balanga, but he ran into Franco again.

"Mistress Franco, where are you going?"

Franco looked at him and ignored him.

Seeing Franco take the people on the boat, Eloyin was puzzled.

"What's going on?"

"Your Excellency, you don't know, Lord Franco lost the battle at Baranga and was evacuated by Lord Oraza!"

"What?"

Eloyin was surprised, but he didn't expect Franco, who had always been regarded as his right-hand man, to be removed.

On the second day, Eloyin came to Baranga and met Oraza.

Oraza, who was anxious, immediately came to his senses when he saw Eloyin.

"How? Have you seen Zheng Zhilong? What did he say? ”

"See. But he doesn't admit that he sent them! ”

"Bastard! Shameless! I don't even admit it! Oraza scolded.

Eloyin was a little speechless, don't say that people don't admit it, do you agree with it?

"But he promised to help us settle the rebellion, but on terms."

"On what terms?"

"Let's sell them this season's harvest of five million mu, four hundred catties per acre."

"Buying grain? It's that simple? ”

"My lord, in my opinion. At present, Daming is short of food, and the reason why Zheng Zhilong sent people to make trouble in the back is nothing more than wanting food, and last time it was like that, he was worried that we would not sell them food. ”

"I'm definitely not going to sell it to them!"

"That's why he's making trouble. It's nothing more than wanting to buy some food. ”.
