Hong Bao almost vomited out his courage. He lay panting on the simple bed, his eyes blank and looked like a haggard wood.

Zhang Wang came in and smelled a sour smell, but compared with the smelly city he imagined, he thought this was heaven.

Hong Bao's eyes moved and said weakly, "we won't go again. Remember to tell them when we get back to Daming. We can't go!"

Zhang Wangxin said, "father-in-law, I know. You'd better have a rest and wait..."

"The prince of Lisbon is coming. He is coveting the route and our shipbuilding skills, keeping an eye on them..."

Hong Bao turned sideways, his eyes were sharp, and hissed: "keep an eye on them. Don't be afraid to turn your face. In a word, don't let their people get on the ship, whether it's day or night, whether it's bright or dark..."

……

Hong Bao fell ill.

The strong old eunuch survived countless storms and life and death crises, but was defeated by a smelly city.

be utterly routed!

Zhang Wang began to put pressure on Abel and doc to close the deal immediately, and then the fleet began to set out.

It doesn't matter to doc. If Abel hadn't been secretly bad, the deal would have been over.

So Daming's goods were placed on the dock, countless exquisite dishes, tea, exquisite silk

"No price!"

Zhang Wang had no idea of bargaining with them and coldly refused to bargain.

You want dishes and tea. At present, only Daming can provide them.

Love to buy or not!

Well, this is monopoly trade.

No matter how cunning businessmen are in the face of monopoly trade, they can't use their means unless they use force.

So later, they used force to open doors one by one, and then found that looting was more interesting than doing business, so they began to loot and became addicted

But now they dare not take risks, so they can only obey the arrangement of the fleet.

The goods began to exchange. Heavy boxes of gold and silver were carried on board. Tea, porcelain and silk... These goods were moved down and most of them were received by the people of Canary flowers.

When these are taken back, they will be the forbidden land of the rich and powerful, and will become a sharp weapon to show off at the banquet.

But this is nothing, because the first time, the second time and the third time are no longer far away.

Look at the Ming man who is recording. As he records, his mouth can't close. It can be seen that the harvest is rich.

Abel felt that doc had made a lot of money. Taking these goods back, he was sure to set off an upsurge in goldfinch, and then the king would make a lot of money.

Doc thought so, but he always felt something was wrong.

"Xing and Bo said, take each other's gold and silver, drain their national treasury and folk wealth, and then they can only be slaughtered."

Hong Bao came out and looked thin, but his spirit was good.

"But gold and silver can't be used as food. What if they use paper money?"

When Zhang Wang came home, he was in a good spirit. When he heard the speech, he said casually, "father-in-law, if you think about the paper money, when the Daming paper money was worthless in the past, and with paper money, we certainly won't trade with them."

The people who carry gold, silver and goods are all Daming people, and the Canary flower people have not been sidelined at all.

After reading for a long time, Hong Bao suddenly thought of an interesting idea and said, "you said, if we are not willing to accept their banknotes, what will they do if they threaten Daming?"

Zhang Wang said in surprise, "father-in-law, do they dare?"

Hong Bao said with great interest, "what if you dare?"

Zhang Wang said seriously, "Daming will beat out their excrement and urine!"

His tone was serious, with unquestionable certainty and confidence in winning.

Hong Bao also felt that his thoughts were too divergent. He smiled and said, "well, after the transaction is over, we'll be ready to go back."

Go home!

When the news spread, morale was outrageously high.

The deal soon ended and the fleet began to replenish.

Henry worked hard for a long time and finally got an interview with Hong Bao.

Hongbao's "reception hall" is very cramped, just a tent.

Time is also in a hurry, at least Henry thinks so.

Because Hong Bao's eyes are very complicated.

Zhang Wang was very angry and went out to teach some of his "experts" a lesson.

"I can't even kill a fool. What do I want you to do?"

After greeting Henry with a smile, Hong Bao asked him what he wanted.

"Lisbon hopes to become friends with Daming, so I brought the mission and, of course, gifts. I hope to be liked by his Majesty the emperor of Daming."

For the mission, Hong Bao has thought clearly from the initial resistance to the present indifference.

He said with a smile: "of course, but the number of people can't be too large, otherwise the ship can't fit, and it will be difficult to replenish."

Henry nodded: "there are not many people, but... Lisbon hopes to cooperate with Daming in shipbuilding. We have..."

"This is not within the scope of our duty. Your highness, this matter can only be decided by the court."

Hong Bao sneered in his heart. He knew that the prince would not give up easily, otherwise he would not dare to come here.

At that time, he asked Zhang Wang to arrange people to wait for the opportunity, but in the end, he failed because the prince lived in seclusion.

Obsessed with ships?

Unfortunately, we can't promise you!

Zhang Wang's people showed some hiding at that time. Although Lisbon didn't trace it, it's not easy to start again, otherwise Hong Bao would want to kill him now.

Henry continued without giving up: "we also have a lot of gains in navigation and wave resistance. We can share them if Daming wants."

Hong Bao gave him a pitiful look and said, "I'm sorry, we can't accept this matter until we get the consent of your majesty and the important officials in the court. Your highness, you'd better wait for the mission to inquire by yourself."

Henry left disappointed and was invited by Abel to drink.

"That fool, ambitious fool!"

When doc learned the news, he didn't intercept Henry who illegally entered the Strait.

"Wise people can't cooperate with us unless they are fools."

His tone was neither taunt nor ridicule.

Abel and Henry were so drunk that they slept together.

Together against the Canary?

There are more clouds in the sky. The channel seems to be cursed by the gods. It's either cloudy or rainy all year round. When the sun comes out, it's heaven's eyes

It was raining, wet and irritating.

"The rain in Jiangnan is like a woman, and the rain here is like a ghost, especially an ugly ghost!"

Zhang Wang is disgusted with the weather here. He wants to go back to Daming right away, but it's snowy even the fastest.

The drizzle lasted from afternoon to evening, and the visibility on the sea was very poor.

Hong Bao is drinking.
