"I wonder what the Admiral wants us to do?" Jayakala asked.
"I am a kind-hearted person who does not want to see blood. You should go to other countries in southern Xinjiang for me now and persuade their royal families and ministers to switch sides and surrender, and surrender with courtesy. Don't wait for our army to kill them and kill them.
, destroyed their ancestral temple..."
Qin Shaoyou's words made the princes and ministers of Zhenla Kingdom echo him repeatedly, saying things like, "The Admiral has a kind heart."
But in their hearts, they were quietly complaining:
"The kindness of your heart may be true, but if you want to say that there is no blood...can your multi-eyed god who is boiling in the pot agree?"
Complaints aside, these princes and ministers were still very excited.
Although they all knew that Qin Shaoyou's words were somewhat misleading.
But they have to eat this pie.
Moreover, they also believed that if they could really handle this job well, even if they were not given official positions, they would be able to show their loyalty and ability to the Governor and the Emperor.
In this way, at least he won't be settled by his wife, right?
So while they were flattering, the princes and ministers of the Zhenla Kingdom all swore to the heavens and the earth that they would do this job well and let Qin Shaoyou see their abilities.
Qin Shaoyou had no time to listen to their boasts, let alone their boasts about their abilities, so he immediately waved his hand.
"Hurry up and go now. I will stay here in the Cave of the Ten Thousand Gods for a few more days. If you succeed in convincing me to surrender, I will bring you here to see me."
"yes."
Jayakalu and others hurriedly nodded in agreement, and then left the place.
When leaving, they didn't even stand up, but knelt on the ground and moved back.
Qin Shaoyou saw this scene and did not correct or stop it. He just mentioned another thing:
"I still need some ingredients here. When you go to another country to persuade them to surrender, help me find them."
He waved his hand, and the blood energy condensed and appeared in mid-air, turning into the names of the ingredients.
The princes and ministers of Zhenla Kingdom hurriedly remembered these ingredients in their hearts.
Although Qin Shaoyou did not say what rewards he would receive for finding these ingredients, the princes and ministers of Zhenla Kingdom placed this errand as equally important as persuading other countries to surrender.
In their opinion, whoever can find these ingredients, and whoever finds more ingredients, will definitely be looked down upon by the Governor of the Xia Kingdom Editing Factory.
Even if there is no reward for now, it will be beneficial in the future, so you must do it seriously.
Soon, this group of princes and ministers from Zhenla Kingdom left the Cave of the Ten Thousand Gods.
Perhaps these people are indeed very eloquent and capable, or it may be that several other countries in southern Xinjiang had already thought of surrendering when the Xia army approached the border.
In short, Qin Shaoyou didn't wait for two days before the princes and ministers of Zhenla Kingdom, along with their colleagues from other countries, rushed over to surrender.
These people, like the princes and ministers of the Chenla Kingdom, were all naked and bearing thorns, and they brought their country's household registration, taxation, maps and other information.
And boxes of supernatural items and treasures.
At the same time, he also brought the ingredients Qin Shaoyou needed.
Just as Qin Shaoyou expected, although the small countries in southern Xinjiang do not produce rich things, they actually have a lot of supplies due to the development of maritime trade.
As local snakes in southern Xinjiang, these people have many connections and can help Qin Shaoyou find food.
After Qin Shaoyou received the ingredients, he was not in a hurry to cook with them.
He first checked it carefully with [Mingmu], and then invited Taoist priests Shan Daonian and Qiu Shi to inspect the ingredients. Finally, he lit a stick of incense on the statue of the Patriarch and asked the Patriarch to personally check it.
After some operations were completed and it was confirmed that the ingredients had not been poisoned or poisoned, the stove and pot were set up and several new dishes started to be cooked.
As for the group of nobles from southern Xinjiang who had come to surrender with their bodies exposed, they were handed over to Zhu Xiucai, Cai Guizhong and others for questioning.
As Qin Shaoyou's confidants, these people know what he wants to ask and have excellent interrogation skills, which are enough to take Qin Shaoyou's worries away so that Qin Shaoyou can seize the time to cook new dishes.
After seeing this scene, the people from the Zhenla Kingdom held their heads high and looked very proud.
Because they felt that they were questioned by Qin Shaoyou personally, so they were on a higher level than people from other countries in southern Xinjiang.
After Qin Shaoyou learned about this incident, he was also shocked and couldn't laugh or cry.
This can actually be divided into high and low?
Zhu Xiucai, Cai Guizhong and others did not disappoint Qin Shaoyou.
They really got some clues from the mouths of the princes and ministers of these countries.
After gathering these clues, Zhu Xiucai came to Qin Shaoyou and reported to him:
"Duke, based on the clues we found during our interrogation, we deduce that the mysterious maritime merchant is most likely from Fuso Island.
Because more than one person mentioned that although the crew member of the maritime merchant spoke Xia Guohua, he had a Fusang accent.
In southern Xinjiang, there are many pirates and rogues from Fuso, so the people here are very familiar with the Fuso accent.
Therefore, we judge that the mysterious maritime merchant, even if he is not from Fuso, should have stayed in Fuso for a while, recruiting sailors, and even developing followers..."
Qin Shaoyou was busy making pan-fried ancestors while distracted, and asked:
"Have we deployed any manpower on Fuso Island?"
"have."
"Immediately send a message to our people on Fuso Island and ask them to investigate the matter secretly."
"yes."
Zhu Xiucai immediately wrote down this order, and then said:
"In addition, we also learned from a minister of Siam that the mysterious maritime merchant had been to Siam.
While leaving, there was a big storm, the ship was engulfed by the waves, and all the sailors disappeared. Only he returned to Siam alive and asked the king of Siam to help him salvage the sunken ship.
But in the end, the sunken ship was not found. Instead, the people who participated in salvaging the sunken ship were silenced and killed.
The minister was not involved in the salvage. He heard about it from a friend. Later, his friend was silenced, so he kept this secret deep in his heart and did not dare to tell it.
It was not until now that the King of Siam died and the Governor asked about it again that he told this story..."
Qin Shaoyou raised his eyebrows slightly.
It seems that there were some extraordinary treasures hidden on the original ship.
Otherwise, the mysterious businessman only needs to ask the king of Siam to provide him with a new sea ship. Why bother to salvage it?
Even if the boat was not raised, people were killed and silenced, obviously because they were afraid that news about the treasure would be leaked.
I just don’t know if the treasure hidden on the sunken ship is the one that the fourth sister and the fourth brother-in-law got?
