Section 4 Nuggets-Australian Maritime Business ()
"Damn, it's really like riding a roller coaster." Xiao Zishan said in a low voice with lingering fear.
"Wealth is sought in danger." Wang Luobin still put his hand in his pocket, and Xiao Zishan knew that he had been holding the electric shock device from just now to now.
"What are you talking about? Calm down, calm down." Mr. Wen also sweated a lot on his nose.
The originally passable time travel plan ran into problems from the beginning. As soon as Wen Desi secured the exit of the wormhole, he heard the barking of a dog, which frightened the three of them so much that their calves became weak and they went crazy. Fortunately, Wang Luobin
I kept holding the electric shock device in my hand, and when I heard the sound of wind behind me, I quickly pressed the button, and with my backhand, the blind cat shocked the hair of a vicious dog that was about to pounce on it and vomited.
They were foaming with foam, their legs were in the air, and they were probably paralyzed again. The dogs just barked and stopped coming. Before the three of them could think about what to do next, as soon as the courtyard door opened, seven or eight servants in Tsing Yi rushed in, holding in their hands
There were all kinds of swords, guns and clubs, and there was also a musketeer with a match rope wrapped around his arm. The black muzzle of the gun was pointed directly at these three plane travelers who had dreams of getting rich.
The first batch of people from different time and space encountered during the time and space journey were obviously not very friendly. Not only were they unfriendly, but their lives were also in danger for a moment. A black hole with a blunderbuss pointed at them, this kind of experience was the first time in their lives for these otakus.
Once.
When talking about ancient firearms, they usually despised the Ming Dynasty gunshots, feeling that they were shoddily made and lacked range power. However, at this time, the distance between the two sides was only more than 20 steps, and the black muzzle of the gun was pointed at them. No matter how bad it was, they must have
I was so frightened that I didn’t know what to do. Wen Desi was so frightened that he swallowed an opening line he had thought of alive.
Fortunately, the servants flinched when they saw the fate of several dogs, and the two sides faced off for a moment. Wen Desi thought that although it would be easy to escape by throwing out a smoke bomb, the career of the time and space lord would not end here, and there would be no talk of a unified world in the future.
The great cause of rebuilding China! Thinking of this, I felt bold and bold. I raised my hands in the air, talked in Cantonese, and threw a mirrored powder box to show that I had no ill intentions.
I didn't expect that the powder box would be so useful. It didn't take long for the three of them to go from being attacked with swords to being guests.
"Old Wang, do you think they are a trap? They tricked us here to arrest us?" Xiao Zishan secretly looked around. This is a real Ming Dynasty building, and what they are sitting on is real Ming Dynasty furniture, anywhere.
If you get one in this time and space, you can sell it for a good price, but no one is in the mood to appreciate it at the moment.
"If they want to do something in the backyard, they can do it..."
"Everyone, just be careful, and don't drink tea." Wen Desi whispered, "Looking at the servants in this house, I guess the owner is also involved in smuggling. Most of these people are ruthless, so be careful if the other party has evil thoughts."
"I got it."
"Zishan, I'm going to throw a smoke bomb in a minute, so help me take out the wormhole quickly. Let's talk right away."
"clear."
While they were discussing in a low voice, they saw seven or eight servants coming in with a middle-aged man in fine clothes. Xiao Zishan and the others had been busy for a while, and they had just calmed down. Now their curiosity was greatly increased - this was a true man of the Ming Dynasty.
!Three pairs of eyes looked straight at this well-maintained and fair middle-aged man.
Mr. Gao just opened the box and was shocked. He has been selling foreign goods for more than 20 years and is well-informed. Not to mention that this compact is neither porcelain nor jade. It is very rare. What is inlaid inside is a piece of valuable
Liancheng's crystal mirror. He has only seen it a few times in the past few years. Although the size is much larger than this, it is not as bright as it. He heard from Franji's merchant that this crystal mirror is only in Western Europe.
Out of a city, the workshop is built on an island and is heavily guarded. It has always been a secret craft. It is rare even in the country of Folangji, let alone in the city of Guangzhou.
These three Japanese people have so much money! Master Gao wondered whether they were the envoys of some famous master in Japan. Then he thought about it, the Japanese people themselves did not have enough daily necessities, and nine out of ten department stores were sold by Tang Ships. How could this happen?
Is there such a rare treasure?
Since the other party was willing to spend a lot of money to show his goodwill, he had to go and meet him no matter what. Mr. Gao had already smelled the smell of money. To be cautious, he took his most skilled bodyguard, Ding, with him.
When they met face to face, Mr. Gao was stunned again. These people were not Japanese!
Guangzhou is a place full of people from all over the world, and he has seen a lot of Japanese people. Although these three people don't have long hair, they don't have the common hairstyle of Japanese people. One of them has his hair shaved very short, like a tutu, and the other two are slightly longer. Their clothes are quite long.
It is very strange, the double-breasted shirt and coat are short to the knees... This kind of clothing is not worn by the Japanese, nor by the Buddhist monks.
Moreover, these three people are tall, not short like the Japanese at all. All of them are over five feet five inches, and one of them is actually six feet tall.
Judging from his appearance: his skin is fair and his hands and feet are not thick. It is obvious that he is a pampered person. Looking at his expression, although he is a little apprehensive, he does not feel humble and inferior, and there is a sense of confidence in his every move.
Mr. Gao has been in the business world for many years and is considered a man with sharp eyesight. Looking at these three people, he can't see any clues.
Just as he was wondering, he saw three people looking directly at him with extremely strange eyes. He felt a hair in his heart. He couldn't help but take a step back. He thought that these people were as good as Long Yang. How could he be so mean to a man like him?
people.
Here Xiao Zishan and the others saw the middle-aged man's expression changing, and they had some doubts. This man looked to be in his fifties, wearing a square turban on his head and a silk round collar. He had an upright appearance, a light beard, and was fair.
His face was slightly fat, which was in sharp contrast to the dark and thin servants around him.
Mr. Gao raised his hands to Wen Desi and asked, "I wonder what you call a good man?"
Wen Desi's jacket had a longer hem and a texture that looked similar to satin. It was obviously different from the coarse cloth jackets of the two short jackets, so Mr. Gao recognized him as the leader.
As soon as these words came out, Wen Desi immediately recognized that this was not Cantonese, but had an accent of modern Nanjing dialect. So he said in Mandarin: "I came from overseas. I didn't know the way at night and accidentally entered your house. May I ask where this is?
what is the place?"
Although Mr. Gao didn't understand what he heard, he intuitively felt that these people meant no harm to him. After all, he was used to being in the world. He asked slowly: "Where do these good guys come from?"
Now that they could communicate verbally, and the two parties exchanged names in written and spoken words, Wen Desi revealed the formula that had been discussed long ago.
"My ancestors are all Chinese. After Yashan, they fled overseas. We once established a family business in Bo Ni. However, the country's leader saw that the Han people were too powerful and repeatedly tolerated me. So he had to go to the sea again and headed south, until he reached Australia, which is thousands of miles away. Now
It’s more than two hundred years ago.”
Mr. Gao pondered for a moment and said, "So you are not Japanese?"
"We are Chinese people, how can we be Japanese?!" Wang Luobin interjected dissatisfied.
Mr. Gao raised his eyelids. This group of overseas people really didn't understand the rules. A servant just interrupted casually.
"We are not Japanese." Wen Desi said. Seeing that the Ming Dynasty official had no objections to this statement, he became more bold and said that Australia was originally a barbaric land with only a small number of natives. Their ancestors were there.
After overcoming thorns and thorns, they finally became a paradise and lived and worked in peace and contentment. The ancestors of all generations cherished their homeland, so they sent a few of them to carry goods and do business along the way to have a look.
In fact, there are many loopholes in this statement. How they entered the city and where the ship was anchored were not explained. But just as Wen Desi predicted: sometimes you just need to have an explanation and stick to it.
Mr. Gao nodded frequently. He knew this place. Every year, several foreign ships (foreign ships in the Ming Dynasty did not mean foreign ships, but ocean-going ships, that is, merchant trading ships in the Ming Dynasty) went there.
He has never heard of this matter, but he is too lazy to take it seriously. Anyway, it happened hundreds of years ago. Who can understand it? Besides, he is not interested in Bo Ni or Australia.
"...I didn't know the way and accidentally entered your house and disturbed Baofang. Please forgive me for my sins." Wen Desi said and gave him a hand-off gesture, "We came from overseas. May I ask where this place is?"
"
"It's easy to talk," Mr. Gao said. It's not easy for these people to have a lot of treasures and to be able to enter the city late at night. I just listened to this and said, "This is Nanhai County, Guangzhou Prefecture of the Ming Dynasty."
Wen Desi then asked again: "I wonder what year, month and day it is today?"
Mr. Gao was startled and replied: "February of the seventh year of the Apocalypse."
