The ship docked, and Luo Ying stood proudly on the deck, fiercely drawing his sword and roaring.
The soldiers had been waiting impatiently. After hearing the order, they quickly pulled the trigger and fired the crossbow bolts one after another.
Not to be outdone, the defenders opened their bows and shot arrows one after another. However, the speed of the bows and arrows was too slow. Facing the wave after wave of crossbow bolts, they could not bear it. They fell to the ground before the second arrow was fired.
He was immediately frightened by the speed of the crossbow arrows. He was so confused that he didn't even bother to shoot the second arrow, so he turned around and ran away.
However, more crossbow bolts flew by, one after another, densely packed, and more defenders screamed and fell. In the face of advanced technology, they were completely defeated in a confrontation.
Luo Ying took the opportunity to jump onto the shore and charged ahead.
Half of the wolf camp was left behind, and the deputy commander continued to suppress it. The other half followed closely. With flying steps, they quickly closed the distance with the enemy and knocked down many more with one shot. The few remaining people fled desperately and rushed in.
Inside a government office, the gate of the government office is closed.
Luo Ying led people to chase him up. He looked at the closed government office and felt that the door could be easily opened, but he did not make a move. He waved his hand and shouted: "Let go of the alert!"
At this time, a roar came from inside, as if asking something, but unfortunately I couldn't quite understand it. Although I had learned the Japanese language from the translator for more than two months, it was far from enough, so I ignored it and led the people to disperse around, watching eagerly.
Keep an eye on the area to prevent someone from sneaking up on you.
At this time, Yuchi Baolin came over with his men. With a majestic body like an ox, he rushed directly with a fierce momentum. With a click, the inner bolt of the door broke and was knocked open.
"Go in and leave no one behind!" Yuchi Baolin shouted, rubbing his painful shoulder.
As soon as the soldiers swarmed in, they would kill everyone they saw, like wolves and tigers.
A man who looked like an official came out of the backyard, followed by a dozen subordinates with frightened faces, each holding a knife and looking wary. The man who looked like an official shouted: "Aren't you from Japan?"
Yuchi Baolin understood this sentence and asked in a somewhat stiff Japanese language: "Who are you?"
The other party was gibbering, and very fast. Yuchi Baolin didn't understand a word of it, so he rushed forward and chopped the opponent down with a knife, and then chopped down several people around him. Everyone saw Yuchi Baolin take action, and they were all unambiguous, and they fired with crossbows.
Shoot over and knock down all the others.
"Those who don't understand Tang and are gibbering should be killed!" Yuchi Baolin cursed, sheathed his sword, and shouted: "Go in and kill all those who don't understand Tang. Those who understand will be left as interpreters."
"Follow the order." Everyone rushed forward and rushed into the backyard.
Not long after, a burst of clashing weapons and shouts of killing came from the backyard, but it soon ended. A soldier covered in blood rushed out, cupped his fists and said: "Commander, deal with them all. Do you want to chase down the few who escaped?"
"No, let them report the news." Yuchi Baolin waved his hand and added: "Quickly clean the battlefield and move all the food, property, books and weapons to the ship."
A large number of sea-going ships were captured, enough to carry a lot of things.
Qin Huaidao came outside, glanced at the shining white sun, and was in a good mood. He said to Luo Ying who was approaching: "A few of them ran away, didn't they stop me?"
"Don't worry. He ran away on horseback and pretended to stop him. It was just a show and a trap. How can he attract the enemy if he is exposed?" Luo Ying explained with a smile, looked at the smashed door of the government office, and continued: "Okay.
With great strength, I have a chance to compete."
"You're not good enough yet. Maybe you can surpass me in a few years when you're older."
"Not necessarily, you won't know until you try it." Luo Ying said not to be outdone.
"Commander, come and see." A soldier ran out excitedly and shouted.
Yuchi Baolin rushed forward. Luo Ying was very curious and followed him in. The group came to a warehouse and saw boxes of brand-new silver ingots stacked inside. They were rectangular, palm-sized pieces, shiny, and tempting to look at. A rough look
Count, there are a hundred boxes, worth a lot of money.
"So much? At least a million taels." Luo Ying, who followed, was also surprised to see this scene.
"Haha, I'm getting rich, move them all away." Yuchi Baolin shouted excitedly.
"Follow the order." Everyone agreed excitedly and hurriedly started.
The money was quickly moved to another building ship. This building ship was designated by Qin Huaidao to store finances. Qin Huaidao came over after hearing the news. After learning about the situation, he was also very curious. It was impossible for a small Hirado to have so much money. Although it was made in Japan,
Silver, but not so much in Hirado, there must be something wrong.
Qin Huaidao hurried ashore and took a look at the government warehouse, secretly surprised.
"Brother Qin, what an unexpected surprise, we got rich." Yuchi Baolin said excitedly.
"Something's wrong. It's impossible for a small flat household to have so much money. Check all the official documents and bring the translator over to find out the situation." Qin Huaidao did not dare to be careless and quickly issued an order.
Yuchi Baolin also regained his composure, realized something was wrong, and quickly went to make arrangements.
Soon, a large number of documents were brought, and so were the translators. However, the translator could not read and could only speak Japanese, so he had to go outside to find a literate person to read to the translator, who would then tell everyone the contents.
Reading each piece and translating each piece, although it was slow, Qin Huaidao listened patiently.
Soon, a document revealed the truth. This batch of silver was transported from a place called Fugen Silver Mine. It arrived yesterday and was temporarily stored in Hirado. In two days, the Japanese royal family's ship would arrive and be transported to Baekje.
The purpose is unknown.
Baekje was the Bangzi Kingdom in later generations, across the sea from Hepinghu, but Baekje had been recovered by the Tang Dynasty. What was the purpose of transporting this money to Baekje? To bribe local officials? Or was it for another purpose?
The document was not written, so only the ship that came two days later knew about it. However, Qin Huaidao was not interested. His mind was filled with the four words "Fugen Silver Mine" mentioned in the document, so he immediately asked the translator to ask and took out the map.
After the translator gets the answer, he takes the map and asks the other person to point out the location.
Qin Huaidao saw that he was in the north of Japan, and the Osaka Prefecture he wanted to go to was in the south. In the opposite direction, he would have to go around for several days, but it was unreasonable not to eat such a big piece of fat.
The next moment, Qin Huaidao took back the map, signaled Yuchi Baolin and Luo Ying to come to a place where no one was outside, and whispered: "Load the ship as soon as possible and set off, go to the Fugen Silver Mine, and then we'll talk about it here."
"Yes, there will definitely be a lot of silver in the silver mine. If we take it down, we won't have to worry about anything." Yuchi Baolin agreed.
"If you don't take the windfall, God will take the blame. It's over. Anyway, Osaka Prefecture won't run away. It doesn't matter if we go back for a few days. It's more beneficial to us to move a little and go west. The Japanese country can't figure out the details." Luo Luo
Ying also agreed.
"Then it's decided. The original plan to rest here for a day is cancelled. We will leave after lunch. Only when the brothers have eaten well will they be able to work hard. Make arrangements as soon as possible."
"As ordered." The two apologized solemnly, their eyes shining.
A flat household has made millions of taels of silver, how can there be less silver mines?
…
Qinjiazhuang, the courtyard on the top of the mountain.
He'er held the baby and nursed it while chatting with Li Xueyan. The news that the court was not allowed to hire farmers for work had come. Qin Huaidao was not around, and the two of them didn't know how to deal with it.
After some deliberation, Li Xueyan came from a wealthy family, had a vision and a high level of thinking, and suggested: "He'er, the court stipulates that each family can only have one caravan with fifty guards. We have six caravans. According to the regulations,
We have to cancel five branches. Otherwise, we can put the remaining five branches back under the names of their respective families."
"How to operate it specifically?" He'er asked.
"For example, Li Derjian is in charge of the caravan going through the grassland. From now on, this caravan will be under the name of Duke Wei. It's just a different name. Everything else remains the same. We still get the goods here. The same goes for the other people. Anyway, they are all with Lang Jun
People with close relationships can be trusted."
He'er's eyes lit up and she agreed: "This method is good, but it will occupy the quota of each government. They also have their own caravans, and the matter is very important. They have to visit and negotiate in person to show respect. You are pregnant and walking
Sorry for the inconvenience, I'll take care of it."
"You should indeed visit your home and make it clear to your face that your husband is not here. We, as husband's women, can't have no rules and be laughed at. So I'd like you to go there and bring more people with you just in case." Li Xueyan reminded.
He'er nodded and asked: "If the caravan is divided into parts, it won't be a big problem to separate them, but what about the labor problem? Without people to work, production cannot be done. Without goods, the caravan can only stay at home, and I don't know what the young master is.
When the time comes, it will be difficult for us two women to handle such a big thing. Uncle Jia and Brother Xue are very busy every day."
"Just do it one by one. There will always be a way. If it doesn't work, just change your registration." Li Xueyan comforted.
"Change your nationality?" He'er frowned, full of worry.
Changing one’s nationality is not a trivial matter, as it involves identity, interests, social status, etc. How can one just change one’s nationality?
