The group rushed towards Qingdao.

It's low tide, and the waves beat lightly, rippling, farther and farther away.

The reefs on the seashore are also revealed after the low tide, and the reefs are scattered everywhere, like dogs' teeth.

Zhang Yun stepped on the island, looking at the endless sea, and couldn't help but feel proud and ambitious in his heart.

"Show me if there's anyone else on this island." Zhang Yun commanded to the people around him.

Since the last time he was attacked by pirates, he had learned a lesson, whenever he came to a place, he must send someone to check whether there was a hiding place, so as not to be raided in the middle of the night.

Hearing Zhang Yun's instructions, the group of ten people began to explore the island.

Zhang Yun took out a blanket and sat down leisurely, basking in the sun and enjoying the scenery on the island.

About half an hour later, there was a sudden commotion in the jungle.

"Let's go, hurry up, be honest with me." The soldier shouted.

Zhang Yun followed the sound and looked over, and saw several soldiers pressing four or five blonde and blue-eyed foreigners towards Zhang Yun.

"My lord, these people look so strange, they don't look like good people." Zhao Hu saw that these people were blond and blue-eyed, and arched his hand.

Zhang Yun took a step forward and asked with a smile, "Baby eats yo milk Meng?" ”

A few people didn't seem to understand, and they smirked at Zhang Yun vigorously.

"Oh,? I don't understand my jobsite in bulk? Zhang Yun secretly slandered in his heart.

"Gas?"

"Ula?"

“......”

The leading person, seeing that Zhang Yun had been talking for a long time, replied in broken Chinese: "My lord, I will say a little bit of your words." ”

After Zhang Yun heard this, he directly gave the man a kick and scolded angrily: "Don't say it earlier, look at me like a monkey, it's fun, right?" ”

The leader was kicked three steps back before he stopped.

Then he looked at Zhang Yun in a daze.

"Tell me, who are you?" Zhang Yun asked in a deep voice.

"We are from the Kingdom of France, and we came to your Daming to do business, and we encountered a storm and pirates on the way, so we drifted to this small island." The leader replied.

Zhang Yun nodded and began to think about what to do with them.

"Your Excellency, you see, they also have firearms, but they don't seem to be the same as ours." A soldier took out a few firecrackers from the package of this group of people and smiled at Zhang Yun.

When Zhang Yun heard this, he was overjoyed and hurriedly walked over to check.

After starting, he patted the little soldier on the shoulder: "Yes, I will take credit to you this time." ”

Because this gun is the flintlock pistol that Zhang Yunchao thought of in the twilight.

Zhang Yun asked Wang Yongcheng to develop a flintlock pistol, Zhang Yun only gave an idea, he tinkered for a long time, the progress is still slow, and now that there is a finished product, it is estimated that it will soon be mass-produced.

"You're not ordinary businessmen, are you?" Zhang Yun looked at a few people and smiled playfully.

These people, all of them are tall and mighty, and they still have calluses in their hands, and they will only stay if they are people who have touched the fire all year round.

When the leader heard this, he desperately explained: "My lord, we are really serious merchants, and these guns are used to guard against pirates. ”

Zhang Yun ignored him and glanced at Zhao Hu, Zhao Hu understood in seconds, ignored the begging of several people for mercy, directly pulled them to the beach, and began to greet them in a friendly manner.

"How? Do you want to say it? Zhang Yun smiled playfully.

"I say, I say."

Zhang Yun waved his hand and asked Zhao Hu to stop.

Then he pulled the leader back in front of him.

"Remember who you are now?"

"Remember, remember." The man said with a sigh of relief.

"We are soldiers of the Kingdom of France."

After hearing this, Zhang Yun smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "Pull it down for me and continue to fight." ”

"I'll talk about it when you've figured it out."

The man hurriedly begged for mercy: "My lord, I said, I said." ”

"We are pirates."

Immediately took out a book "Marco Polo's Travels" from it and handed it to Zhang Yun tremblingly.

When Zhang Yun saw it, he suddenly felt that his head was big for a while, it was this old boy, after coming to China, he described China as full of gold, and the Western countries began to expand to the East.

Fortunately, the Ming Dynasty has not completely declined now, otherwise it would really become meat in other people's mouths.

Zhang Yun then moved his gaze to the man and asked with interest, "What's your name?" ”

"The little one gave himself a Chinese name, called Mahan." The man smiled flatteringly.

"How many of you have come to Daming?"

Hearing Zhang Yun ask, the man was still hesitant, and when he saw the fierce Zhao Hu behind Zhang Yun, he hurriedly said: "We have a total of more than 1,000 people this time. ”

"But there was a storm on the way, and I was separated from them."

"More than 1,000 people, not much, and it is estimated that there will not be much left in the storm." Zhang Yun secretly circled in his heart.

However, he became interested in the Daming pirates in Ma Han's mouth, and since the last time he tasted the sweetness, Zhang Yun wanted to exterminate a few pirates when he ran out of money.

"Did you really run into a pirate?"

"Yes, my lord, I originally had dozens of brothers, but now there are only a few left, the pirates of the Ming Dynasty are too fierce."

After Mahan finished speaking, he couldn't help but think of the bloody scene of that day, countless pirates brandished broadswords and rushed towards their ships.

It felt like being stared at by death, like falling into an ice cave.

Zhang Yun patted him on the shoulder with a smile and said with relief: "You will take me tomorrow, and we will kill him." ”

After dealing with the affairs of several people, Zhang Yun took out gunpowder, took a flintlock pistol and fired a shot forward.

"My lord, this gun doesn't even need to be ignited, which saves a lot of effort." Zhao Hu exclaimed.

"Well, when I return to the capital, I will prepare for mass production."

"Hey, hey... Can you give us the equipment for the Yunzi Battalion first? Zhao Hu rubbed his hands and smirked.

"What do you want?"

"Of course, the commander has to have a bowl of water, we will equip 2,000, and the other three battalions will equip 1,000 first."

Zhang Yun scolded with a smile.

However, as the descendant of Zhang Yun's lineage, more than 1000 should not be a big problem.

After this episode, the people who had gone to explore the path also returned, but they found nothing else.

"Shen Lian, Shen Lian." With a wave of his hand, he called Shen Lian.

"Your Excellency." Shen Lian heard Zhang Yun calling him, and hurriedly came to Zhang Yun to listen to the order.

"Tell me, what is the biggest advantage of this island?"

Shen Lian pondered for a while, and then spoke: "Xiaguan thinks it's transportation, and this place is close enough to the capital. ”

"It's the mouth of the Yellow River again, and this small island is not small, it's comparable to a small county, if it can be used well, the potential is unlimited in the future."

After hearing this, Zhang Yun nodded again and again.

"Waiting for the development to be completed, I decided to set up a hundred households of Jinyi Guard here, and you will keep an eye on me here when the time comes."

As soon as Shen Lian heard that Zhang Yun wanted to reuse him, he hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed.
