The Heroine’s Route is Wrong

Cheng Xiong heard that he was from the Huo family, the head of the Penglai school, Jiangnan Lu family, and Jiangnan martial arts. How dare you look down upon it.

Cheng Xiong naturally knew what they had started with the Lu Family Merchant Ship. They just wanted the richest Jiangnan merchants to pay protection fees to their Cheng Family Group for a long time.

As one of the richest families in Dajin, how could the Cheng family let it go. The people who didn't hurt most of them are already saving face, and they need to go back to say hello, and they will buy road money in the future.

Zhao Qingyi found that Cheng Xiong's attitude was not very arrogant at this time, which did not match the original Cheng Xiong's impression of the early days. The original owner remembered that the middle-aged Cheng Xiong had some injuries, and only a sick and weak son was a lot less murderous.

Zhao Qingyi thought to himself: It turns out that their tripartite group can still deter each other.

Cheng Xiong said: "As for the merchant ship's voyage, I have to go back and discuss with my eldest brother. It is better for us to make an appointment for a date and time to meet again."

Lu Xu said, "Okay, I have this intention, too."

Zhao Qingyi said, "It's better to wait for Cheng Da to be the master in Fuzhou in ten days."

Cheng Xiong said, "Why not in Quanzhou?"

Can talk in Fuzhou, of course not in Quanzhou, Fuzhou is the provincial capital, the official power is slightly stronger, at this time not three years later, they counterattacked Fuzhou, the imperial court rushed for peace. Although they are not official people, the bandits should be a little in awe of the officers and the army at this time. They will not make a big fuss in the capital city. They can get more favorable conditions for negotiation.

Lu Xu understood Zhao Qingyi's thoughts, and said: "We also asked a friend to talk about business in Fuzhou, and there was no delay. If you don't dare to come to Fuzhou, that's all there is to it."

Cheng Xiong also guessed a little of their plan, thinking that although their influence in Fuzhou is smaller, they will not be unable to go after people find their way. If something is wrong, they can also be prompted.

Cheng Xiong said: "Fuzhou is Fuzhou. If my brother can't come in ten days, I will definitely arrive. But today's goods, I want to take them away."

Zhao Qingyi said: "Everyone's brothers have to eat. In order to take down these three ships, we have many brothers casualties, and we have to be compensated."

Cheng Xiong said: "Our casualties are no less than yours."

Zhao Qingyi said: "If we hadn't attacked from the west, they would have run away, and you would have done nothing for nothing."

Cheng Xiong said: "That's not necessarily."

Zhao Qingyi said: "In any case, our personnel boarded the boat first and forced them to land. Now you can't take all the goods away."

Huo Tianfang said, "Master Cheng, everyone has to ask for a living. It is too unkind if you take it away."

Cheng Xiong said: "We have a lot of people, so we have to take the big head and divide it according to the proportion of the ship."

Zhao Qingyi said: "Cheng Master, you twice robbed Lu's merchant ships, how can this be counted?"

Cheng Xiong said, "Isn't it going to Fuzhou to discuss this matter? One yard goes to one yard."

Zhao Qingyi said: "Do you think the Penglai School, the Lu Family, and the Jiangnan Wulin Leaders are really afraid of your Cheng family? We are not gentle, courteous, frugal people, and we know no fewer friends from the rivers and lakes who are good at killing people than you. If both of us continue to Hostile, then we don’t have to do our own business, and neither of us has a good life.”

Cheng Leopard looked at Huo Tianfang and Lu Xu, or Huo Tianfang said: "Everyone wants to make money. You have already robbed the merchant ship of the Lu family. See it in your eyes?"

Cheng Bao pondered for a while, and said, "Then we have two ships, and you have one. We have more than two hundred ships. If you are asked to take two ships, it will be difficult to explain to the people next to you. "

At this time, the cost of building a large ocean ship is extremely high. Even if the ship's slabs and masts are burned, the cost of repairing it is much cheaper than building a new one.

The three of them glanced at each other, and they all agreed, and then they discussed how to divide the ship.

Cheng Bao picked up the two boats that were intact and took them away with the captives. Under the supervision of the pirates, those Xiyi people who had pioneered in the Central Plains drove the damaged sailing boats to the southeast.

Zhao, Lu, and Huo De were the most severely damaged flagship. Brothers Li, Xue, and Huo Tianfang’s subordinates took their brothers to prison and sail the ship.

Captain Antonio and several high-ranking officials were taken to their treasure ship to isolate them, so as not to be uncontrollable by the Xiyi sailors.

The Spaniards are generally not as white as the Scandinavians. Most of them have darker hair, but they also have beards with high noses and deep eyes.

Zhao Jinxiu looked at them in surprise and said, "Master, how come they look like ghosts one by one?"

Zhao Qingyi said, "Aren't they handsome? All of them have big eyes and high noses."

"Too ugly! Too dirty!"

Zhao Qingyi said: "Pirates are like this."

Huo Tianfang said, "Are they also pirates?"

Zhao Qingyi said: "The route taken by the people from Xiyi to venture out to expand Xinjiang is to both trade and steal. If you meet those who can beat them, you will kill them, and you will do business when you meet those who are capable."

Zhao Jinxiu said: "It really is a country of barbarians."

Zhao Qingyi said: "The navigators of the Western Europa countries are all pioneers of expansion. If you land in a new place and meet the locals, you will be looting or enslaving the locals to mine gold, and you will encounter combat power on the waterway. The low merchant ships looted. Their court is not ashamed of it. I once heard that their British queen gave a famous pirate knight because the pirates are familiar with the sea and brought their country's sea fleet to defeat the invincibility of Spain. Fleet, Britain replaced it as the maritime hegemon. From then on, their colony—the equivalent of a new territory extended to several continents."

Zhao Jinxiu said strangely: "Queen? Women are emperors in their country? Is Wu Zetian?"

Zhao Qingyi said: "It's not limited to men being emperors, as long as they are suitable. It is not Wu Ze Tianhou Gong who has come out of the throne, but the royal princess has ascended the throne."

Huo Tianfang said: "Zijing knows so much."

Zhao Qingyi said: "I also met a Western Region businessman and heard what he said."

Lu Xu said: "We have robbed them now. I don't know if we will lead them to the original position."

Zhao Qingyi said: "Xiyi is far away from here. The current navigation and firearms technology can bully a small country. The thin and dead camel in the Central Plains is bigger than a horse. We are not afraid of Xiyi for the time being, but it won't be the same in a few hundred years."

They couldn't help thinking of the several sailors who were casualties. They were all wounded by Xiyi's firearms. If it wasn't for the bandits to disperse the fire, they shot the fire-stained arrows on the ship and threw the torches on the ship to cause an explosion. , I’m afraid it’s not easy to win.

Zhao Jinshan said: "Their firearms are so powerful, they are even more terrifying than the hidden weapons of our martial artists."

Zhao Qingyi said: "If they develop firearms that can be loaded and fired faster and more accurately, martial arts is really just a function of folk art and physical fitness. An ordinary person can get a firearm and only need to study for three days, he can beat martial arts. Thirty years of masters in the inner family. Gentlemen are not strangers, they are also good at things. Therefore, it is ridiculous that the imperial selection of scholars only emphasizes Jinshi, everyone only reads a few four books and five classics, and the imperial court cannot feed the people. Foreigners must not deter the enemy from outside the country. A single selection of scholars will protect their interests, and let their ancestors’ old people and people be anointed, Xiyi has the ability to travel thousands of miles to your doorstep."

Zhao Jinshan and Zhao Jinxiu came from a family of famous generals, and they also had the heart to learn art and make achievements. At this time, she could not help but be shocked to hear her directly criticize the court for recruiting scholars. This is an enemy of the world's scholars.

Lu Xu was also silent, and said to his heart: She has actually rebelled so far, and she hates the literati class.

Antonio looked at them and said, "What do you want to do with us? We have surrendered. You can't kill us."

Zhao Qingyi's Spanish is only general, not to mention that there is always a difference between modern and ancient times. She partly understood.

She said in not fluent Spanish: "What is your name? Why did you come to the East?"

Although Antonio heard her pronunciation strange, it was about as if a Mandarin speaker listened to someone speaking Sichuanese, but he still understood this simple question.

"You can speak our language, great! My name is Antonio and I am from Spain. We are here to do business and want to purchase some goods back to Europe. You have already robbed our merchant ship, so let us go."

Zhao Qingyi said: "If you let you go, so many of you, will you swim back to Spain?"

"..."

Zhao Qingyi said: "Actually, we and the pirates are not in the same group. But at that time they had so many ships. If we didn't hit you, if there were bandits in front of us, they would fight us together."

Antonio thought for a while, as if he understood.

Zhao Qingyi said: "Those pirates are very cruel, and you don't know if you can live in their hands. We originally wanted to save all of you, but they need someone to drive your merchant ship."

Antonio asked: "Then can you let us go with the merchant ship?"

Zhao Qingyi said: "It was originally possible, but you killed several of us. Killing in our Central Plains is a felony. And their families need to be comforted. If we let you go easily, there is no way to explain to the dead. But you only have to Obedient, there is still a chance. For those who dare to resist, just behead their heads."

Of course, the Xiyi people present would not say that eighteen years later, they will be a hero again, and their hearts are quite broken.

May I ask who will not resist when they encounter an enemy who comes to rob and burn their ship? It was normal for the sailors who killed them in a naval battle. This logic... seems to be no problem.

With the agreement of both Lu and Huo, Zhao Qingyi was sent to jail for these barbarians, and the fleet headed north for Fuzhou.

Everyone was very surprised that she could speak Banbang, and they asked, Zhao Qingyi only said: "I learned a few sentences from a Western Region businessman when I was young, and only a few sentences. Don't be surprised."

Zhao Jinshan said in a strange way: "Master, I don't understand too much. Isn't the Western Region merchants in the Persian area, that is the west, and we are now on the East Sea. Will the Western Region merchants know what they say?"

Zhao Qingyi explained geography to them all the way. At this time, even Lu Xu and Huo Tianfang listened very carefully, and couldn't help but ask carefully. It really opened up a new world.

They were skeptical, and when Zhao Qingyi went to the captain's room of the western galleon to find some of their nautical charts, they were very surprised.
