Chapter Forty-Nine: Concentrate on Business and Sell by Force
That night, a feast was held in the house. Although there are no celebrity chefs in Yufeng Zhuangzi, among the group of Liao people he took in, there are a few mothers-in-law who have good food. The variety of dishes served by the flowing water price completely shocked the Spanish sticks of Velasco.
God is pitiful, eating Japanese sashimi, I feel that it is a delicious Velasco in the world, growing so big, where have I ever seen the exquisite dishes of the Ming Dynasty, this is just an ordinary craft, if they are pulled to the Shaobai Building in Lingshan City, I am afraid they will swallow their tongues too. Usually they stay on the boat, it is a few small fish and some rice, if they have a little more activity in their hands, go to the port to open some meat, some large pieces of meat to eat, it is a very happy thing.
But here, what kind of spectrum is it, even if you don't pay attention to it, Yu Feng is now an official, this hospitality, you have to pay attention to the twenty-four flavors of cold spelling, twenty-four flavors of hot dishes, and there are several kinds of good soups, all kinds of fried and fried, dozens of kinds of fresh fruits, in short, in Velasco's imagination, the king of Spain eats nothing more than that.
However, this made his mind to serve the aftermath even hotter, although it seems that this lord's seaside castle is a bit shabby, but from this food, it is definitely a squandering and enjoying it. This profligacy, in Velasco's mind, is not a derogatory term, if you have the ability, you have the capital to squander, he wants to squander, can he afford to squander?
Seeing these Francophiles gobbling up food, listening to the whispered laughter of those girls, Xu Chang, who was sitting with him, felt a little hot on his face, these people looked on the boat, but they were not so rude, how did they get to the adult's Zhuangzi, make such a shameful appearance, it is really embarrassing. But Velasco, whose mouth was full of food, still unconsciously pulled him to ask questions, as if he didn't know it.
This guy said that he was also a knight, he must be bragging! Xu Chang secretly slandered our Wei Yang man Lord Wei in his heart, and he cheered up to deal with them.
In the room, there is a different scene, around a table of exquisite seats, several leaders of Yu Feng's small group are sitting on the side, everyone is eating and chatting, but the atmosphere is also very harmonious.
"I've been out for more than a month, and there's any movement in the west?" To the west of Yu Fengwen, he naturally refers to the Fang family and those salt merchants and salt sellers who are in collusion with the Fang family, and at present, they are also their biggest targets of prevention.
"It's strange to say, when I didn't pay attention to it before, there were skirmishes from time to time, even if those guys lost a few lives, they had to bring in salt, and the month when the adults went out, they actually stopped!" Zhao Zongqi now, as long as it is involved in official business, he will be called "adult" in his words. When Yu Feng went out, some things, although Xue Niang was in charge, most of them were still Zhao Zongqi's ideas.
"Zhao Gui is watching over there, he has always been steady, and when he says stop, it should really stop!"
"Oh, that's a stake weirdness!" Yu Feng is a little strange, has the other party changed his personality or is he all staying at home for the New Year, and he hasn't come out yet?
"By the way, I asked Xue Niang to put away the adult's official uniform, this kid, I don't know where he got the blessings in his previous life, and found such a good husband!" Zhao Zongqi said casually, looking at his son-in-law, he felt more and more how correct his vision was.
At the beginning, Yu Feng's promotion documents and seal letters, etc., Tong Shan sent them excitedly, although Yu Feng was not there, but Zhao Zongqi still accepted it on behalf of Yu Feng. He has worked all his life, but he is just an unreliable general banner, and now his son-in-law has become a thousand households, although he is not a minister, but this glamorous and decent can not run away, so he has to mention it on the wine table.
Wu Yanran also drank a few glasses of vegetarian wine, her little face was flushed, and her peach blossom eyes seemed to be dripping water. Yu Feng shook his head disappreciatively, thanked Mr. Zhao, and looked back at him like this, and couldn't help but be stunned.
This female doll of the Wu family, I'm afraid that sooner or later her son-in-law will be included in the house. Zhao Zongqi saw it in his eyes and knew in his heart that his daughter was indeed a little far away from this woman, but fortunately, Xue Niang was Yu Feng's wife, and she had shared hardships, so she had such a feeling, even if Yu Feng took this female doll into the room, she would not worry about being wronged in the future.
Now this woman is now in charge of Yu Fengyin's money exchanges, such a thing, comparing his heart to his heart, Zhao Zongqi feels that even if it is himself, he is afraid that he will not be at ease to hand it over to outsiders. However, if Yu Feng takes this Wu Yanran as a concubine, then things will be perfect. The Wu family brothers and sisters are helpless in Shandong, it can be said that their net worth is extremely clean, and when they enter the door of the Yu family, everything they do has changed from helping others to helping themselves, do you still have to worry about her elbows turning out?
"My lord, what kind of plan did you bring back those Franc machines and ships this time!"
Of course, Wu Yanran has to ask this question, if Yu Feng plans to use these to do maritime trade business, it will be within her jurisdiction in the future, how can she not care.
"They found it themselves when they arrived in the Ryukyus, people are secondary, but I fell in love with the cannons on their ship!"
"General artillery?" After all, it is an old soldier, Zhao Zongqi paid attention to it, this is a cannon! "One cannon shoots out, and it will be chaotic for several miles"!
"Franc cannon!" Yu Feng didn't know how to divide the general cannon and the Franc cannon in Zhao Zongqi's mouth, anyway, now Da Ming calls these foreign goods all Franc machines, so he answered so vaguely.
"Those ghosts don't matter, this cannon has to stay, with this thing, what are we afraid of in the future, even if Kong Youde comes to Shandong again, we have to weigh it when we meet it!" Zhao Zongqi was obviously a little superstitious about the role of the cannon, and he couldn't wait to suggest.
"I thought you were going to do some maritime trade business in the future!" Wu Yanran seemed a little disappointed, after all, she was more interested in the former when doing business and fighting.
"The trading at sea, although it may make some money for the time being, but it is subject to too many people, it is better for us to guard this port, Ansheng to do our business, and save people's suspicion!"
At this point, Yu Feng has already thought clearly, it is true that the sea is the Golden River Galaxy, but it has a master. But if he is red-eyed and goes to share a piece of the Zheng family, it will inevitably arouse the vigilance and suspicion of the other party, and now his power is still weak, and the other party may not care much, but if he grows a little stronger, I am afraid that he will inadvertently add a powerful enemy to himself.
I couldn't finish the business on this land, and I had enough to make enemies everywhere. Yu Feng is not stupid, right now, as long as his territory is bigger, there will be more silver, as long as he can cope with competition like the Fang family, is there still anyone in this world who doesn't eat salt?
"Or, just take advantage of the moment to call that ghost captain in and talk about it, if he is willing to sell, we will buy it with silver, if not, our Zhuangzi is very big, and we don't care about closing a few more ghosts, if the adults are troublesome, just kill it and throw it into the sea!"
Yu Feng was cold, is this his father-in-law who looks loyal? How does it sound, it looks like a hero who opened a mountain and set up a village on the green forest road.
Xu Chang was entangled by Velasco, this Velasco is simply a curious baby, I don't know where there are so many questions, and many questions also involve Yu Feng, he didn't get Yu Feng's permission, naturally he didn't dare to reveal half a point, and the prevarication was very hard, at this time, a servant walked to his side, said a few words in a low voice, and suddenly, he smiled.
"Captain Velasco, have you eaten well? My lord invites you to come to the inner house to talk! ”
What does the Oriental inner house mean, Velasco still understands, it is not a place where close friends are not allowed to enter, and it is also divided into genders, it is said that those Oriental nobles hide their beautiful concubines in the back house, and they easily refuse to let people see them, and invite themselves to the inner house, which does not mean that this adult admires himself very much.
"Eat!" He spat out a bone in his mouth, and somewhere he felt a handkerchief to wipe his greasy hands and mouth, "I am very honored to accept the invitation!" ”
To Wicklas's disappointment, there were no beautiful noble ladies in the back house, and that was not entirely true, and there was one, but he was sitting behind a wide screen, and he couldn't see it. Just kidding, Miss Wu's beautiful face is something that this vulgar foreign ghost can see.
In addition to Yu Feng sitting at the top and Zhao Zongqi sitting next to him, there are also a few more heavily armed guards, which doesn't look like a narrative, but like a trial.
"Thank you so much for your hospitality! Dear Lords! Velasco stroked his chest with his right hand, and bent slightly to Yu Feng in front of him, Yu Feng knew that this was a Western aristocratic ceremony, and he didn't think it was wrong, but Zhao Zongqi was very dissatisfied, and now Yu Feng was a thousand households, and the inspection department was inspecting, and this ghost actually bowed like this, even if it was a salute, it was really barbarian.
"Sit, Velasco!" Yu Feng waved his hand, and a guard next to him brought a chair.
"Is this adult trying to recruit me?" Velasco looked at the posture in front of him, "Or do you want to test me before recruiting me?" Well, it must be so! ”
"Velasco, I have a question that I don't have an answer to, and I'd love to ask you to help me solve it!" Yu Feng said slowly.
Velasco's heart blossomed, I knew it was so, just say it, I'll solve your problem.
"Along the way, I am very satisfied with the service of you and the crew of the Asuka, and I even have an urge to buy the Asuka, but the one next to me, my father-in-law, has stopped me from this impulse, can you help me persuade him?"
"Dear lord, I have to say, your vision is very good, the Asuka is a very remarkable armed sailing ship, even if you want to buy it, I'm afraid I and my partners will not agree, after all, we have a deep relationship with the Asuka, well, as deep as brothers....."
Wislac was still chattering and saying, but Zhao Zongqi was suddenly discolored, he didn't like it when the ghost came in, since he didn't sell it now, and he was still talking so much nonsense, would you really not kill you if you could say a few words of Ming official words?
With a wave of his hand, several guards behind him stepped forward.
