Chapter 220: A Lot

"General, uncle! There are people on this island who can speak Chinese! Han Bao'er dragged a person and rushed into Gao Huaiyu's big tent.

Three days ago, they had landed on an island dozens of times larger than any other island they had ever encountered before.

The people living on this island, in addition to the Khoisan indigenous people they are familiar with, also have more than a dozen different ethnic groups such as yellow skin and black skin.

They were the first to be attracted by yellow-skinned people, who were very similar in appearance and skin color to people in some parts of the Great Xia Lingnan.

At first, I thought they were from Daxia, but after a dozen greetings, I found that the language was different, and Huang Shangshu concluded that the other party spoke Javanese.

But today, it is a miracle that a Javanese who can speak Chinese can be brought in.

What was brought here was an old man who looked to be over seventy years old, and the Chinese he spoke still had some dialects in the Jiangnan region, but he could understand them completely when he spoke Daxia dialect.

asked this person's name and said a long list, confused them all, and was forcibly intercepted by Gao Huaiyu with two syllables "Putuo".

I could barely hear him say a rough idea: "The ancestors of my family fled from Jiangnan to Java during the Huangchao Rebellion. Later, because I offended the Javanese magnates, I followed my parents to the Falklands when I was seven years old. ”

It turned out that the family of Putuo used to be at least a family of great businessmen in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, but how did they lose their ancestral surname?

"Who's in charge of this Falklands now?" Gao Huaiyu is most concerned about this issue, and he has no interest in exploring Putuo's family history.

Putuo understood when he heard this, smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "No one is in charge, and the Khoisan people are the first natives to come here. We Javanese came after them, and the big food merchants came later than us. Not only did they come on their own, but they also brought those dark-skinned Bantu slaves to grow rice and sugar cane for them"

Not only have people changed their names and surnames, but now they have all changed their nationality, and so have the indigenous people of Java.

Since this is the case, Gao Huaiyu and the others did not inform Putuo, and now they have already changed the dynasty, and they only sent him away when they asked what they wanted to ask.

The Big Three, meeting for the first time in the Falklands.

"This place, since there are big cannibals going back and forth to do business, should be profitable. Businessmen and businessmen should be more able to find business opportunities for cooperation. Huang Shangshu, you always talk to the shippers. ”

"No problem, uncle, are there any gold mines and gems here?"

Huang Shangshu was fascinated by gold mining, and it is estimated that he felt that where there were indigenous people, there should be gold.

"Lord Shangshu, the Javanese and the Great Food Merchants know the use of gold and silver, they have been here for so long, if they really have these minerals, it will not be our turn!"

Heiwa is not too impressed by the energy of this island, and only knows that it is not a developed country in later generations.

"It's not good to dig gold now, even those shippers can't wait to keep an eye on us for twelve hours!"

Gao Huaiyu smiled evilly, and he was willing to be hated by others, and he had to beg for their appearance.

After the three of them discussed, they did not plan to stay here for a long time, and there was no such thing as establishing diplomatic relations in a place where tribal civilizations and outsiders lived together.

Before Huang Shangshu could do the mobilization work of the ship merchants, the big food merchants came to the door by themselves.

A big food merchant named Faisal also brought Putuo to be an interpreter: "Welcome friends from the East, may I ask you, are you the envoys sent by His Majesty the King of Tang?" ”

Hearing the other party mention the Tang Dynasty, Heiwa couldn't help but slander: The history before the Great Xia is completely consistent with the later generations, before the Song Dynasty. The difference is that in the five dynasties and ten kingdoms at the end of the Tang Dynasty, a founding emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty was killed.

Therefore, after Heiwa and Cuihua came to the Great Xia Dynasty, they once thought that this was an empty dynasty.

However, where is the history before Great Xia, which has made the couple messy for a long time.

In the end, Heiwa made a decision, and it was regarded as the Song Dynasty, the same sky, the same land.

Maritime trade in ancient times has a long history, and can be traced back to before the Qin and Han dynasties. During the Sui and Tang dynasties, overseas trade flourished unprecedentedly, and the merchant ships of the Tang Dynasty maritime merchants had extended from Tianzhu to the Fars Sea (Persian Gulf).

However, in the late Tang Dynasty, large-scale peasant uprisings and frequent dynastic changes destroyed many precious historical and commercial documents and important navigation routes.

When the Great Xia Dynasty was founded, ocean and sea trade had been stagnant for nearly a hundred years.

The previous monarchs were busy unifying the surrounding areas and consolidating their political power, and the policies became more and more strict in the future, and there was a tendency to close the country.

These big food merchants grew up listening to the stories of the prosperous Tang Dynasty in the East, and to this day, their country still has the legend of the Tang Dynasty merchants.

After just one look, he found that this group of people looked similar to the legendary Tang people, and after thinking about it for a few days, he decided to take the initiative to come and say hello.

During the period when Heiwa was thinking about slander, Huang Shangshu had already made a comeback with Faisal.

After Huang Shangshu's explanation, Faisal realized that the original Tang King's world had changed hands, and now it was the Great Xia Dynasty.

Translator Putuo's eyes were also wide, although their ancestors were oppressed by the yellow thief at that time, they never thought that Tang Wang was so vulnerable in the world! So easy to be changed to a new dynasty?

To Faisal's surprise, this Bactria dynasty seemed to be even more powerful, and their ships were taller than all the ships they had ever seen.

Moreover, they actually dispatched tens of thousands of people out, and they didn't look like ordinary businessmen.

You must know that the Tang Dynasty in the hearts of the great cannibals was very rich. The country's culture and politics, as well as trade, shocked and awe-inspired.

Silk, porcelain, tea, these have been out of generation for hundreds of years in their country. In addition to the preservation of some porcelain in the royal family, tea and silk were in short supply.

"Are you going to our Great Food Empire this time? Our Majesty the King is very fond of your Oriental culture. We sincerely invite you to trade in the Great Food Empire. Whether it is silk, porcelain or tea, it is very popular in our country. ”

Huang Shangshu is happy in his heart, this is a friendly country with a foundation for cooperation and admiration for oriental culture.

"The Great Food Empire, we must be going, I wonder if this friend can lead the way for us? We're just going to make some supplies on the Falklands, and we won't stay for long. ”

"Of course, it's Faisal's honor!" With so many businessmen from the big Eastern countries invited, Faisal could imagine how shocking he would be when he returned to China.

Not only did he happily take on the duties of guides, but when he heard that they wanted to exchange some food on the Falklands, Faisal took them directly to his family's estate.

His family has more than 200,000 acres of Zhuangzi on the Falklands, all of which are used to grow rice and sugar cane.

As smart as he was, he even proposed that instead of gold and silver, he only wanted to trade grain with the commodities of Great Xia.

They really don't have much rice, more than a year, not only rice, but also gray surface. It's hard to get a place to grow rice, so you have to change some of it.

The merchants were told that they had established contact with the Great Food Merchants and that they would soon be able to trade with the Great Food Nation, and that they were relieved from the blows they had received from the Khoisans.

Big food country, they've heard of it! The country that used to have the most contacts with the East, the richest country, heard that the Great Food Merchants, every pocket was full of precious stones.

My heart is burning in a hurry, and I can't wait to set off immediately.

Zhongqinbo, who was as anxious as them, also rubbed on Faisal's manor for one night.

I haven't seen my daughter-in-law for at least a month, and I miss it very much.

But Cuihua actually missed the appointment, and this point didn't come into the space.

Heiwa couldn't believe it, and deliberately looked at the alarm clock, and now it was half past seven in the evening of Daxia.

What is Cuihua doing? She's in awkward circumstances.

Today, after Lao Yuan Tou returned home from the workshop in Dali Village, he entertained the eldest brother of the Fan family of four in the main house.

Cuihua also had to give face to Lao Yuantou and take a few sons to eat a hospitality meal.

didn't expect to eat most of the meal, and the sister-in-law of the Fan family actually proposed that she wanted her daughter to be close to the three heads, and wanted to keep her daughter in the Yuan Mansion and grow up with her future husband.

Ma's face turned black on the spot, and when he looked at his second daughter-in-law, Fan Qinghe couldn't see her mother-in-law's unhappiness.

can think about the words of the sister-in-law, and said hard: "Mother, it's good to kiss and kiss, and you can also know the temperament and temperament when you grow up in a small piece." ”

"Smack!" The chopsticks were thrown down heavily.

"Kiss and kiss? Do you want to be the home of the Yuan Mansion? Be the master of the Yuan Mansion? Ma made no secret of his anger.

"Look at what my in-laws and aunts said, the three heads and the eldest sister crawled out of my second sister's belly, how can I be the master of the child. It's not me who blows, I."

"Shut up the old lady, come on! Go and call the second and third masters back, and say that their daughter-in-law is going to be the master of the Yuan Mansion! ”

Ma didn't look at the two daughters-in-law again, and sat steadily, and the housekeeper and mother-in-law were doing things neatly.

"Mother, I didn't" Fan Qinghe was anxious, but her mother-in-law's eyes ignoring her also made her lose face.

The sister-in-law did say a lot of small things to her during this time, and the one that touched her the most was: Santou's future is naturally not bad, so if you marry a daughter-in-law from a wealthy family in the future, can you take your mother-in-law in your eyes? Daughter-in-law, if you don't understand, can your son still have the same heart with you?

Speaking of which, when it comes to her heart, how many people in the noble family who are now good friends with the Yuan Mansion know her, the second lady of the Yuan Mansion?

"Uncle in-law, look, this is a trouble, my mother-in-law can't speak, don't be angry, don't be angry."

Brother Fan saw that Old Yuan Tou was no longer polite just now, and wanted to give his words back, giving Sister-in-law Fan a look while talking.

Sister-in-law Fan was not convinced, looking at Cuihua, who had been drinking soup in silence and not speaking, she had an idea: "Sister-in-law, I heard that you have the idea of our Yuan Mansion, you will judge the reasoning, can this mother be the master of the marriage of her children?" ”

"Oh! I can't be a woman who is loyal to the lord of the Qinbo Mansion, otherwise, the brother and sister-in-law who sell my sister for money will not be able to enter the gate of our house. ”

Topic Buster. Cuihua: People who don't have a face can't give face.
