As a blond foreigner, Kong Tai is obviously not suitable for activities in the inland of Daming. In this way, it was so conspicuous in the Ming Dynasty that it was easy to be noticed.
Therefore, the matter of secretly contacting Jin Yiwei and bribing Liu Jin can only be found by a broker. To this end, Kong Tai found Hu Jian, a more reliable broker to help with this matter. But at the same time, because of the preciousness of silver, Kong Tai also spent money to hire several reputable knights to help **** silver to avoid accidents.
While bribing Liu Jin, Marin also attached a painting, a painting of a turtle ...
The painter was naturally the great painter Dürer who came with Marin. Dürer used sketching techniques and used a large piece of paper to draw a picture of the Galapagos tortoise in equal proportions. "Picture", let the broker responsible for bribery teach Liu Jin, bluntly saying that this is auspicious, want to dedicate to the court. There are also eight characters on the map of the black turtle, "The weather is good and the rain is good, Cathay Pacific is safe." In addition, there is a piece of paper in the painting that reads-"If you can successfully worship, another fifty thousand will be offered" ...
Even for money, Marin believes Liu Jin will not refuse. Moreover, Liu Jin is now angry and resentful, and his reputation is not good. He also needs auspiciousness to gratify him and prove that he can bring good luck to the court. Such a fame and fortune, he must not refuse.
If the normal procedures are followed, Marin should land at the two shipping companies in Guangzhou or Ningbo, and then after inspection, the Ming Dynasty officials will arrange to go to Beijing to pay tribute.
However, Marin did not intend to take this old road. Because it takes too long. It is now the lunar month in March, only about five months before Liu Jin's fall. If you take the normal tributary route, it is estimated that it will be dragged after Liu Jin's fall. The rest of the matter is difficult to tell, and it is also difficult to accomplish.
Therefore, Marin intends to take the fleet directly to Tianjin Weidagukou to land. As for the reason, it is "escorting Xiangrui to Beijing". After all, Galapagos tortoises are known as "Xuan turtles", and they are very expensive. As for the unreasonable law, what is there? Now Liu Jin is in power and is not ceremonial, he has the final say ...
Originally, when hiring a silver **** master, Marin planned to hire a master dart in Quanzhou South Shaolin. Only after inquiring, I realized that there is no kung fu master in the current South Shaolin, and it is still a sacred place for Southern Buddhism.
Uh ...
Thinking carefully, Ma Lin just slapped his head-it seems that Hu Jiannan ’s Shaolin habit of martial arts was developed in the "Jing Jing" passed down by the famous general Yu Dayou when he resisted the Japanese war decades later.
At that time, the southeast coast was not flat. In order to protect and assist Yu Dayou against the Japanese, Hu Jiannan Shaolin only began to practice martial arts, using Yu Dayou's "Jing Jing" as a model to practice stick techniques. Later, Quanzhou also used this as a blueprint to develop a folk martial art called "Biandanquan". This martial art was mainly popular in the Qing Dynasty, because the Qing Dynasty prohibited civilians from carrying weapons, and the people simply used the pole to use the Shaolin stick technique to practice martial arts self-protection.
And now, Yu Dayou is just a 6-year-old boy, one year younger than Caesar. Therefore, there are still a large number of monks in Southern Shaolin and other chanting. Moreover, Yu Dayou's martial arts were mainly learned from "Jing Chu Long Sword", not Shaolin Kung Fu.
Do n’t watch the martial arts novels exaggerating the Shaolin martial arts, but in fact, in real history, when Yu Dayou visited Shaolin, he discovered that the Shaolin martial arts at that time were too bad. "give them. Even the legendary Yijin Jing was created by the Taoist Zining Taoist in the late Ming Dynasty (1624). Note that it is a Taoist, not a monk. After the Shaolin monk got it, he bragged about it and said that it was written by Asamuda thousands of years ago, and he decided not to admit that it was invented by the Taoist priest. And the old Golden Buddha believes in blowing a wave of Buddhism in martial arts novels. In fact, the old Jin Zu was an official for Manqing. In the Manchu Dynasty, the most respectful of Buddhism is the deliberate suppression of the Taoism of the Han people. As an ancestor who was lenient in the Qing dynasty, Lao Jin also naturally favored Buddhism.
That is to say, in true history, the martial arts of Shaolin in the Ming Dynasty was still bad. Later, after absorbing Yu Dayou's "Jing Jing" and Zi Ning Taoist's "Yi Jin Jing", Shaolin had a great development in martial arts. As for the reputation of Shaolin Temple, Lao Jin's praise has made a huge contribution. In the martial arts novels, the Qingcheng School and the Kongtong School playing soy sauce are actually not weaker than the Shaolin martial arts school. But there is no way. Lao Jin's novels are so famous that Shaolin was praised and they were trampled on. Especially the Qingcheng faction, was hacked the worst. Yu Canghai, an old gold pen, directly blacked out the Qingcheng faction. Later, the successors of the Qingcheng faction wanted to discuss martial arts with the old gold, so that the martial arts of the faction would justify their name.
Uh ...
Although the legendary master of South Shaolin was not found, Kong Tai still found several famous martial arts masters dart silver through the middleman. After all, Hu Jian is mountainous, and where there are mountains, there are naturally bandits. In order to protect themselves, there will always be some martial arts masters.
Marin is not bad money, this time brought a lot of silver. Therefore, he generously smashed money and hired seven or eight reputable martial arts masters as **** guards to **** Baiyin to Beijing.
At the same time, through the broker, Kong Tai also contacted a hundred households named Feng Xu who were stationed in Jinyiwei in Hu Jianquanzhou, and asked him to contact Liu Jin in secret.
Quanzhou in this era ~ www.novelhall.com ~ has not yet opened up maritime trade. Even the tribute of the Ryukyu nation took the Fuzhou route. Therefore, Quanzhou is not prosperous at this time. And Feng Xu Feng Baihu is stationed here, but it is not a beautiful difference. His duty is mainly to inspect the scourge of pirates and pirates along Hu Jian's coast. And Jin Yiwei really mixes well, either in the south and north, or in the south. It was definitely a bad luck egg that was built.
Through contact, Marin and Kong Tai found that this Feng Baihu was kind and not so careless. Two thousand and two silvers were given and they were taken down. Then, Marin gave him another 500 yuan of "activity funds", and the Feng Baihu really sent someone to send messages back to Beijing through Jinyiwei's internal channels. Subsequently, the team escorting 12,000 silver also took the internal note issued by Feng Baihu to the north. (The Ming dynasty needed a road guide when leaving the county, and the household registration management was very strict.) Feng Baihu did not drive the road, and he did not have that power. But what he wrote was the documents that Jinyiwei had internally used, and there was no place where officials did not dare to make trouble with long eyes. Because those officials are more afraid of Jinyiwei than ordinary people.
Moreover, as Liu Jin took control of the North Korean government in recent years, the power of the factory and health organizations was very alarming. Because Liu Jin controlled the whole country by relying on Dongchang and Jinyiwei. Therefore, no fool dare to easily pass Jinyiwei.
In fact, Hu Jian also had guarded eunuchs. They are direct subordinates of Liu Jin, and have a closer relationship with Jin Jin than Jin Yiwei. However, Marin was reluctant to find these guarding eunuchs. Because eunuchs are often greedy and have a big appetite. If they fall into their hands, they will definitely be blackmailed. Therefore, Ma Lining can let Feng Baihu make this money, and he is not willing to provoke those eunuchs who are paranoid about money ...
