33. Returning to Laixi, Sakai v. Kyushu Island

The old foreign monk, according to the analogy of the title of Captain Fan, can be called Master Fan. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Master Fan was born in an ancient religious aristocracy, and received systematic theological education since he was a child, but because of his extremely high talent, no one could teach him in a few years, so he had to study the classics alone and preach as a herdsman in the following days.

Thinking alone and cultivating on his own, his perception of God inevitably diverged from the mainstream of the Holy See. The Holy See has ruled all the states on the continent for millennia, and its control over the Mind is the cornerstone of secular power, and the old system must not be allowed to flourish. It was against this background that Master Fan was abandoned by his family and avoided by his parishioners, and finally stepped on the ship that went far away, and came to this land that had never been illuminated by the light of his gods.

Lin Zhennan, who is now named Yamamoto Zhennan, listens to it, isn't this the master of the land outside the square "The road is not good, and he floats on the sea". Immediately, he paid great respect to Master Fan, and explained to him what happened to the master, and comforted him:

Two thousand years ago, the way of Confucius was not good, and two thousand years later, Confucius was respected as the most holy teacher and admired by the people of the world, but Master Fan did not have to be discouraged. Yi Zhong said, the number of Dayan is fifty, and its use is forty-nine, and everything has a line of opportunity to be transported in the sky.

When Master Fan asked the meaning of the words Confucius, Yi, and Tianyan, behind Yamamoto Zhennan, a strange light flashed in his eyes, and he thought that he must follow this noble young man, so that he can continue to surprise himself.

Old Master Fan went to the country and left his hometown, although he was respected and treated favorably by a group of Dutch peasants, it was inevitable that he would decline, but now when he met Yamamoto Zhennan, his religious beliefs and scholarly attitude were stimulated again.

The unexpectedly calm sea journey along the way also seemed to indicate that things would be smooth sailing after arriving in the Wa Kingdom. However, the calm was always short-lived, and upon arrival at the port of Nagasaki, Captain Fan and the sailors who had been to the Wakoku soon discovered that there were far fewer ships moored in the harbor than usual.

Kazuo Yamamoto, who had returned, did not have so much sentimentality, hearing the familiar local sound, seeing the familiar crowd, he immediately burst into tears, and only heard the lord's authentic Japanese dialect: "How can you make a trouble, can you attract the person in charge?"

Immediately rubbed his two small eyes, and also made a serious idea in the Japanese dialect: "The master will find fault in the port area and kill a pariah, this kind of thing in the martial arts family needs to be dealt with by people with equal status, if it is just a money transaction or injury to someone, no one cares." ”

Yamamoto Zhennan was surprised and hesitated, but Old Master Fan didn't think there was anything, in his hometown, the nobles had a privilege that was even more bloody and violent.

Yamamoto Zhennan was hesitating, a team of bareback dock coolies had already swarmed up, surrounding everyone, these coolies looked numb, their backs were deformed, just arched upward, and it didn't seem like they were coming to pick up the work, Yamamoto Kazuo was very familiar with this scene, and immediately glared at these coolies with fierce eyes, but whispered to the lord in a docile tone:

"The lord can look behind them, and there must be those merchant pariahs who organize them, and use these disgusting means to set off their insignificant manners and status, so as to appear noble in front of the red-haired ghosts. ”

Sure enough, when these coolies were about to haunt Yamamoto Zhennan and his party, the sound of leather whips sounded behind them, and then with a hula, they retreated as quickly as they came forward, revealing behind them merchants dressed in high-grade silk from the Emperor.

The head merchant has eyes as small as Kazuo Yamamoto's, but he is full of smiles, and when he trots forward, the fat on his face that beats and the fat that shakes all over his body swings in a special rhythm, making it difficult for him to feel bad for anyone he faces.

"Villain Sakai Dairo, where is the lord staying?" The fat businessman who was breathing for a while wanted to sing, and only after a long period of obscenity floated out of his mouth did he reveal his identity. But this person has already regarded Yamamoto Zhennan as the owner of this Dutch merchant ship.

Kazuo Yamamoto has the trust of the lord and has taken the initiative to take on the arrangement of this trip. As a samurai, he is the most noble in the country of Japan in this era, not to mention the talented and decisive master of his own family, there is no need to respond to a pariah like a merchant.

Kazuo Yamamoto saw that his master did not approve of his intention to kill a pariah casually and provoke the samurai representative in charge of Nagasaki City, so he had to accept the reception of this obese and immature businessman. Sakai Dairo was able to operate in Nagasaki City for a long time, and naturally had a delicate relationship with the samurai, and he was accustomed to seeing the style of those high-class samurai, and when he saw Kazuo Yamamoto's contempt from the bottom of his heart, he was not angry, but more respectful.

In this way, Yamamoto's master and servant, as well as Captain Fan and Master Fan from the Netherlands, who had settled the sailors on duty, calmly accepted the reception of Sakai Dairo. That night, Captain Fan and Old Master Fan honestly and unceremoniously each kept three daughters to quench their hunger and thirst for months, but Kazuo Yamamoto saw that his master was not interested in this, and he also felt deeply responsible, and did not accept Sakai's curry.

Sakai Dairou was more prone to sleepiness, but he did not sleep that night until all the sent daughters came back and respectfully reported all the details, including Captain Fan's rudeness, Old Master Fan's old and strong, Yamamoto Kazuo's refusal, and Yamamoto Jinnan's noble disdain.

Sakai Dairo has been operating in Nagasaki for many years, and has grown from a low-level rice seller to a businessman who is now involved in firearms and silk, and is quite sensitive to the political situation of the Japanese state. Seeing that the Warring States period of the past hundred years is coming to an end, the samurai who have successfully established the world will definitely set up the shogunate to rebuild its authority, and what is the attitude of this new shogun towards the merchants, that thought is the rise and fall of his own family for a hundred years. Now, if you can't borrow the accumulated wealth to get on a famous ship as soon as possible, you can borrow your daughter to make a daughter for the Otomo family to get the business convenience, and it will be like flying in the wind in a blink of an eye.

Today, a Dutch merchant ship entered the port, and there was a priest on board, which shows that the specifications of this ship are not low, and the boatload is mainly composed of two Chinese people dressed as samurai, so the cargo of this ship must have been booked by a great feudal family earlier, and the two samurai obviously have a master-slave relationship, or a cronie sent by the great feudal family. Sakai took over the group and tried his best to entertain him, and he had the intention of finding out the inside story, and this could not be hidden from the two samurai nobles, which could be regarded as a tacit understanding of communication information.

The return of the lower daughter at night confirmed his thoughts, and the two samurai nobles disdained the lower daughter he had carefully selected, which showed that their nobility, even if they were not from the Kanto region, were by no means comparable to the Otomo family, which was in the waning mountains.

Yamamoto Zhennan originally intended to dry the businessman who was obviously very open in the docks, and then he said something from his mouth, but he didn't want to attract his initiative because he refused Sakai's hostess.

Kazuo Yamamoto returned, Sakai came to ask for a meeting, and Yamamoto Zhennan made a majestic gesture, learned the pretentious tone of the Japanese people, sat up straight on his knees, and looked out the door. I saw Sakai's feet on the floor and stepped forward, the fat body seemed to be a big ball rolling, but there was no sound of clanging, he was a little distracted for a while, he looked back at Kazuo Yamamoto's long hands and feet, thinking that the country of Wa came from the world for thousands of years but it was not in vain, it seemed that he could meet talented talents at any time, as if Kazuo Yamamoto was suitable for the root bone of the partial swordsmanship, and it seemed that this Sakai Dairo was naturally suitable for practicing the qualifications of sacrificing his body.

"The villain Sakai knocks on the adults and greets them. Sakai had less ninety percent of the smile, and more thirty percent of the awe-inspiring greetings, which brought Yamamoto Zhennan's thoughts back.

Sakai didn't dare to wait for the noble person to take the initiative to ask, so he began to introduce himself, it turned out that he was able to gain a foothold in Nagasaki City Town because his daughter was a daughter in the Otomo family and was favored by several masters at the same time. And now I also learned from my daughter that the Otomo family is now extremely embarrassed, and is being forced by the Shimazu family to join forces to resist the demon king of Oda Nobunaga. Sakai, as an ant in the samurai battle, is willing to serve his family fortune and get out of slavery, just to leave the leaky and broken ship of the Otomo family as soon as possible.

Speaking of the unfathomable fate of the merchant pariahs in the samurai battle, Sakai's face, whose fat has solidified into a smile, reveals real fear.
