Zhangzhou, Fujian, located in the plain, adjacent to the sea, is a natural barge port, in the vigorous development of Fujian businessmen, in recent years, the scale is getting bigger and bigger, faintly surpassing Guangzhou, Fuzhou seaport, becoming the world's first seaport trend, this main benefit and geographical advantages, has been Fujian this more and more vigorous overseas trade.

Emperor Ming treated the land outside the Central Plains before and after the gap is too big, Ming Chengzu Zhu Di, Zheng He seven voyages to the West, footprints across the world, and hundreds of overseas countries to establish diplomatic relations, mutual exchanges, but just a hundred years have passed, the prosperity of overseas trade continues to decline, but also the Japanese invaded the coastal border, plundered finances, murder and arson, the emperor ordered a ban on the sea, and promulgated harsh laws, which at that time, can not be said to be bad, but in the long run, it is himself locked on the mainland, plain abandonment of the sea.

In these years, the emperor was aging and increasingly ignoring political affairs, resulting in a flood of smuggling along the coast, and a large number of merchant ships came and went to the sea, selling porcelain, tea, and silk from the Ming Dynasty, and then brought back a large amount of gold, silver, and precious stones, among which the ships that came to Fusang were the largest.

Merchants shipped grain to Fuso and sold it to shoguns and nobles of major families in exchange for beautiful Fuso women to bring back to the Central Plains.

Fuso women have a well-behaved personality, and they have received various special education to serve men since they were young, and they are obedient in their bones and do not know how to resist.

Every beautiful Fusang woman in Middle-earth will be sought after by the rich, or sold to the Qinglou, or kept for their own enjoyment, no matter what, every woman will be sold for a very high price, and these smuggling merchants, only need to pay food and weapons, it is completely profitable.

It was this violent way of accumulating wealth that drove the trade along the coast, and finally Zhangzhou Yuegang was already in place.

The rows of docks, the wide docks, the rows of ships arranged in order, the smallest can only accommodate two or three people, the largest is dozens of feet long, the huge mast towers over the bow, and the sails are not open at this time, otherwise it is another scene. Over there, thousands of people were carrying goods, or moving them off the ship, or carrying things onto the ship.

It's noon, and it's a busy time of the day, the scorching sun is shining straight up, and the sound of trumpets echoes in the sky.

......

These big ships are the main force of maritime transport, and ten big ships are connected together, and the goods trafficked are enough to support an army of 1,000 people, which shows how profitable smuggling is, and only in this way will more and more people be attracted to join them.

It is also a taunt that some of these high-grade weapons sent to Fuso will fall into the hands of the ronin, and eventually return to Middle-earth, and then bring slaughter and blood.

......

Many people know this, but huge interests will eventually prevail over the conscience of the heart, or these people are borrowing the hands of ronin to exploit the people at the bottom.

Why do the Japanese invaders repeatedly prohibit it, and don't care that there are people in the court who interfere and collude inside and outside, this is the most fundamental reason.

......

In the middle of the Moon Harbor, the sails of a large ship were slowly rising, the bow of the ship was full of sailors, and in the middle was a pile of goods.

It was a big ship coming and going to Fuso, and it was full of grain. The big ship was already preparing to set sail and was collecting its spears, but there was still a plank on the dock on the side chord of the ship, which had not been retracted.

......

The owner of the big ship was wandering on the deck, a wealthy merchant, with a round face, wearing a hat and a jade wrench in his hand. The sailors on the side were impatient, so they asked in a low voice: "The shopkeeper, it's been almost half an hour, why hasn't the person you been waiting for come yet?"

The merchant was already irritable, where would he give his subordinates a good face, splitting his head and covering his face was a scolding, and when he was almost relieved, he inadvertently glanced at the dock, and a man and a woman were walking towards this side.

He wiped his eyes to make sure he was not mistaken, and then, under the watchful eye of a dry sailor, hurried out of the ship.

When the distance was near, the merchant saw the faces of the two men clearly, and his heart was overjoyed, and he immediately greeted them.

There was a man and a woman. The man was wearing a black samurai suit, draped behind his head, with a handsome face and sharp eyes, and there was a faint sharp aura that was difficult to look at directly on his body. The woman's facial features are exquisite, wearing a long white dress, slowing down the man by half a position, between her steps, closely following the man, holding a five-foot-long wooden box in her arms, I don't know what it contains.

Looking at the dress of the two, it seems that they are sons and maidservants who go out to play.

But the businessman who knew his identity well did not dare to be careless, the one in front of him, absolutely ruthless, although he looked harmless to humans and animals on the surface, was actually the existence that most people in the martial arts feared.

Zhang Zheng, the head of the East Factory, a figure who was famous not long ago, was defeated by his subordinates, although he didn't know why he came to his own boat, but he knew that if he was satisfied with this master, he would have a bright future in the future, on the contrary, if he accidentally angered the other party, he was afraid that he would not survive the next day.

"It's Arida below, and I've seen a big stall. The merchant came to Zhang Zheng and said respectfully.

"You send me to Dongying to complete the task, and I will go back to receive the reward. Zhang Zheng said lightly.

Most of the violent industry of smuggling has the intervention of the imperial court, and this person is a puppet supported by Dongchang, a small role used to get a piece of the pie, and he doesn't need to be polite at all.

"Autumn wind, get on board. He said to the woman behind him, and the two stepped on the deck on the plank, and the merchant followed behind sweating, and he was really happy in his heart, he was able to catch up with Zhang Zheng, and he could basically walk sideways in the East Factory in the future.

Even with a positive attitude, Zhang Zheng was personally taken to the room at the bottom of the boat.

This ship was originally a freight, and there was not much space left, so it was not easy to free up one, and he was not picky, but there was no extra room for Qiu Feng, so the two lived in one room.

It is a very common thing for the young master and his personal maid to live together, and looking at her expression, there is even a hint of hope in her eyes.

It's a pity that Zhang Zheng is practicing and meditating every day, without the slightest excesse, and slowly the autumn breeze also rested his mind and began to do his duty as a maid wholeheartedly.

Time just passed day by day.

Life at sea is the same all the time, the boring life day after day makes people irritable, if you don't meet the waves, it's okay, once you encounter the waves, the whole ship is shaking, he is sailing for the first time, but he is not the slightest bit uncomfortable, but the autumn wind, not adapted to the life at sea, and finally Zhang Zheng has to take care of it.

So, half a month passed, and finally in the early morning, a vast coastline appeared in my eyes.

The merchant was directing the sailors at the bow to change direction and prepare to land, and a group of people were busy on deck.

Zhang Zheng got up early, and came to the bow of the boat to watch the sunrise with the autumn breeze, quietly waiting for the time to go ashore.

The sky is very bright, there are no clouds, and the morning sun rises from the east, and in an instant, the sun shines in ten thousand ways, dispelling the darkness of the earth.

The air was fresh, with a faint salty and wet smell, and you could faintly see people moving on the pier.

"Dock, lower the sails. ”

The merchant shouted, and the great canvas slowly fell as it rose, and a quarter of an hour later the great ship came ashore.

Zhang Zheng hugged the maid's willow waist with one hand, jumped up, and pointed his toes on the strings of the boat, like a roc spreading its wings, and after a few breaths, it landed steadily on the open space ten zhang away.
