One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, a total of seven ships.
These boats are only slightly smaller than the Fu boats, so they can be considered large boats. Moreover, the water lines of these ships are very deep, and they seem to carry a lot of cargo. This is one of the reasons why the ships cannot run fast.
Seeing that the situation was completely under control, Han Du laughed like a night owl, got off the gangplank, and stood firmly on the merchant ship.
"Yes, you knew the current situation and did not resist. In this case, the kind Jack will spare your lives, but these ships will all belong to me."
Han Du looked up and announced the ownership of these ships in a loud voice.
Fu Yong was so frightened that he put his head on the deck, feeling a surge of regret in his heart. He saw the opportunity of the Ming Dynasty to open up the sea. Not only did he spend all his wealth, he also borrowed a lot from acquaintances and bought a ship and supplies. Join this fleet and prepare to make a fortune.
Who would have imagined that they would get off to a bad start, and just as they were about to reach their destination, they would be robbed by this "guest pick-up".
Fu Yong didn't believe what the "receiver" said about pirates. These are probably the navy of the Ming Dynasty. Where are the pirates who speak the Mandarin of the Ming Dynasty?
But the words "picking up guests" just now made Fu Yong feel a very familiar feeling. He boldly raised his head and glanced at "picking up guests". He only felt that this person made him feel very familiar, as if he was an important person. He was absolutely Where have I seen it.
After taking a closer look, Fu Yong asked tentatively: "Uncle, uncle? Uncle Jinghai?"
Um?
Han Du was stunned when he heard this, and his surprise was palpable. Is there such a coincidence in this world? Even if I wear a blindfold, can anyone still recognize me?
Turning around, Han Du recognized Fu Yong immediately. After all, Fu Yong had met him several times, and Han Du had some impressions.
Fu Yong saw the surprised look on Han Du's face, and he was immediately convinced that the person in front of him was Jing Haibo Han Du. He immediately crawled over and kowtowed, "Fu Yong, a common man, pays homage to Jing Haibo."
Han Du had a look of embarrassment on his face. What a shame, the first time he robbed someone he knew, he hit an acquaintance on the head. Nothing could be more embarrassing than this.
Seeing that Fu Yong recognized him, Han Du had no choice but to admit it. Just as he was wearing the blindfold, Han Du always felt that his eyes were out of focus and he was very uncomfortable.
He simply pulled off the blindfold, laughed dryly, and said: "It turns out to be Shopkeeper Fu. Really, we meet each other everywhere in life~"
"It's such a blessing for ordinary people to see my uncle again, what a blessing for three lifetimes!" Fu Yong happily kowtowed.
Could it be that I am not lucky enough for three lifetimes? Fu Yong was already in despair just now, and even began to worry about his wife, children and children at home. If he were to die here, they would also die. If the family can't come up with money to pay off the debt, those people will never let them go.
But the transition between the trough and the peak of life happened so quickly. Fu Yong, who had looked desperate just now and thought he was finished, now just wanted to hold Han Du's thigh and kiss her.
With this big boss here, no matter what happens today, his ship will definitely be saved, and the lives of his wife, children, and children will also be saved.
At this time, Hua Zhong also walked up and asked casually: "What, Brother Han, do you know him?"
Han Du smiled helplessly and explained: "He is Fu Yong. He has helped us twice."
With that said, he introduced to Fu Yong: "Fu Yong, this is the Marquis of Huai'an."
Although Fu Yong didn't know why the dignified marquis called Han Du his uncle, he followed the principle of "burning incense when you encounter a temple, and kneeling down when you see a Buddha". Fu Yong knelt down and worshiped again: "Fu Yong, a common man, pays homage to the Marquis."
"Get up." Hua Zhong said very politely, without any hint of difficulty. Because he heard Han Du say that Fu Yong had helped him twice. This means that Han Du recognized Fu Yong's two favors. Hua Zhong knew clearly how much Han Du's favor weighed.
Fu Yong was also very sensible. After visiting Huazhong, he smiled and apologized to Han Du: "It's all uncle's favor, common people don't dare to accept it."
Han Du did not argue with Fu Yong, but asked: "By the way, aren't you running a shop in the capital? Why did you come overseas and get these things?" As he said that, Han Du pointed at the ship in front of him. For a moment.
Fu Yong did not dare to hide anything, and simply told the whole story of the matter.
After hearing this, Han Du not only sighed, but as expected, this is the smell of capital sprouting. Fu Yong's capital is not very rich, but he dares to throw away his family and career for huge profits. In comparison, what the imperial court did was far inferior. It had been so long since Lao Zhu had decreed the opening of the sea, but none of the people who claimed to be temple officials proposed to set up a shipping department to collect taxes.
The imperial court was obviously very poor, but none of these officials had the consciousness to make money. They were more capable than the other in spending money.
"Then who are they?" Han Du waved his hand and pointed at the other ships.
Fu Yong said quickly: "Those are the same as the grassroots. Each of the seven of us got a boat. The reason why we went together was to be able to take care of us." After Fu Yong finished speaking, he quickly lowered his head. He did not dare to have any thoughts. Intercede on behalf of the other six. Everyone is just a temporary partner. A dead Taoist friend is not a poor Taoist. As long as his own ship is safe, Fu Yong will not care about the lives of others.
Is that so?
Han Du touched his chin, feeling numb, it seemed hard for him to start with an acquaintance like Fu Yong... No, it was a move. He didn't expect that his virginity as a pirate would be stillborn, and Han Du felt quite regretful.
"Let them all come over." Han Du thought for a moment and ordered.
After the six people arrived, Han Du glanced at them and asked, "Where are you going for this trip?"
The six people looked at each other, and finally all looked at Fu Yong, obviously wanting him to take the lead in answering on their behalf. Naturally, they usually refuse to take Fu Yong as their leader, because Fu Yong is the weakest among them. But today is different from the past. Fu Yong is the only one who can talk to the person in front of him. Being able to talk to him at this time is a huge advantage. If the same words are said in their mouths, they may make the other party angry, but if said in Fu Yong's mouth, it will have a very good effect.
In order to be able to protect his own ships and cargo, who cares about strength? Now, the right to speak is the greatest strength.
Fu Yong didn't reply immediately just now, he was just waiting for the other six owners to beg him. As long as he has the name of the current leader, he can use it to mobilize them in the future. For businessmen like Fu Yong, the benefits are too great.
