Chapter One Thousand Nine Hundred and Sixty-six: Throwing Wealth into the Sky
"This is impossible!" Zhu Zhanji shook his head, "There should be no pirates in the south, let alone pirates with cannons."
Xinming is not a vegetarian. After Zhu Di saw the power of the Ming Navy, the first time he came to Xinming was to establish a navy. However, in order to protect the waterway in order to protect the waterway, the Xinming Navy almost
They are all placed here.
Moreover, when Zhu Zhanji returned to the Ming Dynasty, he was reminded by Han Du to pay attention to the dangers at sea. After he came back, he also sent the navy to the sea several times to eliminate pirates. Where are the pirates?
What's more, pirates have cannons? What is the concept? Let's put it this way, Zhu Zhanji has never heard of it, let alone seen it. A cannon seems simple, just an iron cylinder, but there is no exquisite iron-making
Skills are simply impossible to create.
Who are pirates? They are nothing more than rogues on the sea, and they have ridiculous skills.
"I don't know what happened, but I just happened to encounter it." Yu Qian frowned when he heard that Zhu Zhanji was so sure that there would be no pirates.
But he was obviously chased by pirates with nowhere to go, and almost died there. Could it be that these were all his hallucinations?
Suddenly, Yu Qian remembered one thing, that is, Yang Qing once said that those people don't look like pirates
"One more thing." Yu Qian suddenly raised his head and said towards Zhu Zhanji.
"What?" Zhu Zhanji asked quickly. He didn't care whether the people Yu Qian encountered were pirates. If these people dared to pursue Yu Qian, they were seeking death.
When he turned around, he ordered the navy to go to the south for another cleanup. He couldn't calm down unless these people were completely killed! Zhu Zhanji couldn't help but feel scared when he thought that Yu Qian almost died at the hands of these people.
If Yu Qian died here, Han Du might be so angry that he would come from Ming Dynasty to kill him!
Yu Qian frowned and muttered, "These people are not only extremely powerful in fighting, but they also fight to the death. They don't look like pirates at all. Instead, they look more like a well-trained army!"
"Army?" Zhu Zhanji was shocked. When did an army appear in the south, and Xin Mingming knew nothing about it?
"It's the army!" The more Yu Qian said, the more certain he became. He nodded and said, "Your Highness should know the power of the divine thunderbolt, right?"
"Of course!" Zhu Zhanji himself is an expert in using the thunder blunderbuss, and of course he knows this very well.
Yu Qian paused, took a deep breath and said, "These people only have soft bows in their hands, but they can charge with the firepower of the thunderbolts, and they charge more than ten times in a row without even flinching. Such people are not
What else can a well-trained soldier be?"
Zhu Zhanji's eyes widened when he heard this, and he was a little dazed. If what Yu Qian said is true, then this is not something that ordinary soldiers can do. This is an elite!
Such people can be regarded as elite soldiers even if they are placed in the Xinming army!
Zhu Zhanji immediately understood the seriousness of the matter. He took a deep breath and nodded sharply, "I understand, I will handle this matter."
As he spoke, Zhu Zhanji turned his head and looked at Qu Yuan, who was standing beside him with a smile.
"Qu Yuan, right?"
"Yes, Qu Yuan pays homage to His Highness." Qu Yuan quickly bowed his hands and saluted.
Zhu Zhanji waved his hand and said, "You should be one of those people who were brought to Ming Dynasty from America by Zhen Guogong, right?"
"Yes."
Zhu Zhanji nodded slightly, looked at him with a smile and said, "Since you
I also studied in the academy, so I am not an outsider. This time I would like to thank you for saving Brother Yu. If you have any requests, please feel free to ask."
"Your Highness said something serious, I dare not take credit." Qu Yuan was ecstatic, but after all, he had studied in an academy and knew how to deal with this situation. He bowed to Zhu Zhanji with a calm expression.
The more Qu Yuan acted like this, the more Zhu Zhanji looked at him highly.
Zhu Zhanji nodded slightly, thought for a moment and said, "Don't you often come to Xinming to buy goods? In this case, I will give you a promise. If you want to buy goods in the future, you can come to me."
"Thank you, Your Highness." Qu Yuan bowed down happily.
This promise is more precious to him than any gold and silver treasures given to him. Qu Yuan is a businessman, and the most fundamental belief of a businessman is that rare things are valuable.
Although he often comes to Xinming to buy goods, the only things he can buy are common things on the market.
In Xinming, there is another type of items called "official-made".
There are official kilns for porcelain, silk embroidery and other official weavings, and other tea, gold, silver, jade utensils, etc. These official-made things are only circulated among the upper echelons of the Xinming Dynasty, and it is impossible for businessmen like Qu Yuan to buy them.
of.
But now with Zhu Zhanji's promise, Qu Yuan can easily buy these things. This is an absolute monopoly business, and only he can buy it!
Let’s not talk about how much money we can earn. Talking about money is too vulgar! This is a huge wealth that Zhu Zhanji gave Qu Yuan!
Zhu Zhanji nodded slightly and motioned to the eunuch waiting beside him, asking him to negotiate with Qu Yuan.
The eunuch immediately walked to Qu Yuan with a smile and took him away.
After Zhu Zhanji and Yu Qian were the only ones left here, Yu Qian said with great emotion, "I arrived a year late. I didn't expect that His Highness would wait here for a whole year."
"What's one year?" Zhu Zhanji laughed and said loudly, "As long as you can come, even if you stay here for ten years, it is worth it. You are also very good. You dare to take the Nanyang Sea Route to America and go through thousands of difficulties.
Fortunately, you are here, but if there is an eventuality, wouldn't you make Gu Gu feel guilty for the rest of his life?"
Yu Qian smiled awkwardly, changed the subject and said, "It's not just me who is here this time, but also dozens of academy gentlemen headed by Yang Qing."
"Yang Qing?" Zhu Zhanji's mind instantly flashed to a man standing on a high platform to receive an award in high spirits. He quickly interrupted Yu Qian and asked, "Brother Yu, are you talking about Yang Qing, the head of the Institute of Physics?"
"Yes." Yu Qian smiled and nodded.
"Okay! Okay!" Zhu Zhanji patted Yu Qian's arm hard and couldn't control himself with joy. He continued to ask, "Are there dozens more academy gentlemen?"
"That's right."
Zhu Zhanji looked at Yu Qian deeply and sighed, "Brother Yu, you are giving me a big surprise! By the way, where are they? Why didn't they come with you?"
Yu Qian had no choice but to tell Zhu Zhanji that everyone was injured in resisting the pirates and stayed in Quyuan City.
Zhu Zhanji's face darkened and he said in a cold voice, "These pirates will have to settle accounts with them sooner or later!"
"We will discuss this matter later. Now that they still have Qu Yuancheng, His Highness should send a ship to pick them up as soon as possible." Yu Qian shook his head slightly. He didn't care whether he wanted to take revenge or not.
Although they were all seriously injured, at least their lives were saved. Yu Qian was very self-aware that he was not a battlefield material, so he would try to avoid going to the battlefield in the future.
