The Goryeo Kingdom, the Mangsu Mountains, the crusade army camp.
“????,?????????.????????????.??????????????????? ????????????????????????,??????????????????????.?? ???????????????,???????????????.??????????????????? ?????????.????????????????????????????????????,?????? ????????????????????? (Dong Weng, the students are back. Our matter is finally done. I have brought back a hundred of the hundreds of captured sergeants. The rest will be released by them one after another. As for those ships, the other party said that we should go to the deserted port and drive them back. But before leaving, they put forward another condition, hoping that we can agree)..."
“????????????,???????????????????????????????????? ??????,????????? (What are the conditions, as long as you don’t ask me for money or food now, you can tell me)..." Looking at his staff Li Li who was smiling happily Cheng Xuan was in sharp contrast to the hundreds of captured sergeants behind him. Sitting in the Chinese military tent, the Goryeo official Cao Yanshu and the commander-in-chief of the crusade Cui Mingji couldn't help but be overjoyed. However, before he could get up and praise the former, he heard two words from the former's mouth that made his scalp numb the most. The last time Li Chengxuan said just two words, he lost a large sum of silver and food. But now he has taken ninety-nine steps out of a hundred, and this guy is still back. How can he not be shocked and angry? There are many problems, but if there are problems, they must be solved. So, he took a sip of tea, moistened his throat, and began to ask Li Chengxuan what new conditions the Japanese pirates had proposed.
“??????????,?????????????????????????????????????,? ????????????????????????????????????,??????????????? ??????????,??????????????????????????????????????? ??????,???????????????,1,200????????????. (They want wood, the kind of shade-dried wood that can be used to build houses and repair ships. , these people said that there were strong winds and waves on the island where they lived, and the houses they built were blown away easily! Therefore, they wanted to ask us for some wood to build houses and repair ships. The quantity was not much, only 1,200. Materials)..." Looking at the uncertain look on his boss's face, Li Chengxuan did not dare to neglect and immediately told Chiyang's new conditions. When the former heard that the Japanese pirates wanted neither gold nor silver, but also It wasn't rice, it was just some dry wood. I felt relieved instantly, but then I thought about it, twelve hundred pieces of wood was not a small amount, so my slightly soothed brows slowly wrinkled again!
“????,????????????,????1,200???????????????????????? ?????????????????????,???????????????????????????? ???,?????????????????????????????????,????,????????? ??????????????????.??????????????????,???????????? (Don Weng, they said, this time the thousand Two hundred pieces of wood is the compensation we give them. In the future, if they need wood, they will use real money to trade with us. Dong Weng, this is not a small business. If we operate it well, we can get more. To find a way to make money)..."
Having no time to manage the complicated mental journey of his boss, Li Chengxuan continued talking to himself. When Cui Mingji heard this, he realized that apart from this time, in the future, these Japanese pirates would be willing to use real money to buy what they regarded as broken shoes. Wood, the originally frowning brows could not help but relax quietly! In his opinion, wood is everywhere in Korea, and even dry wood is not unusual. There is at least one government-run shipyard in Gimpo County, and two to three small ship repair yards have this stuff in stock. At the moment, he only has With just a piece of paperwork, a batch of emergencies could be dispatched immediately, so he said,
“1,200????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ?????????????????????????????????,?????????????????? ,????????????????????????????????????,???????????? ?????????????????????(It’s okay to give them 1,200 pieces of shade-dried wood, but will they really be willing to pay for it in the future? Don’t wait until then. If necessary, we will send a large army to rob them. These people are Japanese pirates after all, and we need to prevent them from keeping their promises)..."
“?????????,????????????????????????????????????,?????? ??????????????????,????????????????????????,??????, ????????????????,?????????????????????????????????, ????????????????????????????????????,??????????????? ????????????,????????????????????????,?????????? ??????????????? (Dong Weng, don’t worry, I think that although these people bear the name of Japanese pirates, they do things in a very orderly manner, and they should not do anything treacherous. Besides, this In nearby countries and regions, besides us, who else is willing to trade with them? If they really offend us, how long can they withstand the consumption of just a few hundred troops?)... "
Seeing that his boss was still hesitant, dog-headed military advisor Li Chengxuan immediately took a rather heavy wooden box from his entourage. After opening it, there were twenty small ingots weighing five to two taels neatly stacked inside! And this quickly dispelled all the former’s doubts! After all, the saying that wealth can lead to the gods is not just a casual talk. How many heroes, emperors, generals and ministers have been trapped in its magical vortex throughout the ages! The Goryeo official Cao Yanshu and the commander-in-chief of the expeditionary army Cui Mingji were no exception. After accepting the gift of more than two hundred taels of silver from the negotiating opponent with peace of mind, the face of this high-ranking and second-rank official finally showed the long-awaited expression. With a smile on his face, he has agreed in principle to the suggestion of his staff and officially launched a long-term cooperation with Chiyang Group!
“??,???????????????????????????????????????????????? .???????????????????????????????????????????????? ???. (Well, since sir is so sure, let me leave this matter to you. As for the work of going to Wang Jing, let it be left to Nan Min Zhengnan’s nephew)..."
In the ninth year of Jingyan reign of Emperor Sizong of the Ming Dynasty, on the 22nd day of the ninth lunar month, the main base of Chiyang was Tuoji Island.
Just when the Chiyang Expeditionary Corps, under the command of Commander-in-Chief Fan Huzi and Team Manager Wangtang, was swarming on Jianghua Island, overwhelming the Koreans, Liu Laoliu, Yan Xiaosong, and Zheng Nansheng on Tuoji Island , Wu Fang and others were not idle either. After they put down the rebellion caused by Wang Qing and Liao Guangfu, they began to use all their strength to build a large-scale construction project on the island! In addition to reorganizing the deserted villages in the Jingkou area, they also cut down trees and leveled the land in the Dakou area to build a large number of boat-shaped houses to accommodate more and more new immigrants from other worlds on the island! Yes, it’s that kind of boat-shaped house with a bamboo body, yellow mud, and thatch roof! The round arch shape of this simple coastal dwelling is very conducive to resisting typhoons. In addition, the overhead structure is also moisture-proof, miasma-proof, and rain-proof, so it was selected by Liu Laoliu, the leader of the left-behind committee, as Chiyang's first Modern residence!
"Uncle Liu, Deputy Chen Qianhu of Shamen Island has sent people to the island again. He said that Hu Qianhu wants our leader to pay a visit to the island immediately. This is the third time this month. We still serve as leaders. Your Excellency, this is your first time to take up your new job. You are not accustomed to the local environment and you need to rest. Is there any reason why you should decline?" However, just when everyone in Chiyang was extremely busy, trouble came! Chen Yu, the deputy Qianhu garrison on Salmen Island, sent his own troops to the island and once again urged the East China Sea Guards to guerrilla Baihu Kang and go to the island to pay a visit to Shangguan within three days. Salmen Island garrisoned Qianhu Hu Dajin and Hu Qianhu! And this Hu Dajin is the direct nephew of Hu Lian, the commander of the East China Sea Guards. This time he took the initiative to summon Kang Lin to pay a visit, firstly to show his status, and secondly because his uncle Hu Lian sent him a letter, asking him to pay attention to this at all times. Kang Lin Kang Yuanjing, the new guerilla 100 households who came ashore after being cleared by pirates! Therefore, his deputy and bastard deputy Qianhu Chen Yu sent his own soldiers to see what kind of medicine that former pirate with a very high profile, now a guerrilla Baihu Kang, was selling in the gourd?
"No, we used this excuse to send messengers the last two times. This time the guy named Chen sent his own soldiers. If we use this excuse to send them away again, it seems too perfunctory! Let's do this. You go to the bank first. Bring a hundred taels of silver from the treasury, and let the old man go and meet those bastards in person!" Hearing that Shaman Deputy Qianhu Chen Yu sent his own soldiers to the island, Chief Chiyang, who was still seriously injured, pondered over and over again, and decided Go to meet the Samana visitors in person. At the same time, 112 regular flag troops under Zheng Nansheng, more than 40 elite spearmen under Ma Guomao, and all ships and personnel of the navy were also mobilized. Get up, if the preparations are not right, all the visitors will be left on this small Tuoji Island!
"I am Liu Laoliu, and I am now in charge of the guerrilla Baihu. I wonder what the high-ranking officials do to come to our Tuoji Island?" I don't have enough face, so I need some money! Liu Laoliu, an old fox, immediately put on a humble smile on his face after seeing several deputy Qianhu servants wearing helmets and carrying armor. In addition, this sophisticated man also calmly put the two men together. A one- or two-weight silver hammer was handed to the opponent's leader! When the latter saw that Chiyang's visitor was so righteous, the dissatisfied look on his face immediately turned warm as he accepted the two silver coins! Although they were servants of a thousand households, they could usually handle at most one hundred and eighty copper coins. How had they ever seen so much money! So unknowingly, their originally arrogant attitude became polite!
