The clear fresh water rushed down from Han Xiufen's thick neck, passed over the mountains, plains, and valleys, and finally splashed on the deck, and soon it was Together they form a small lake.
Her brocade-like brown skin shone after being moisturized by the water.
The blond boy looked at Han Xiufen's majestic body in fear and couldn't help but fold his arms and tremble.
After Han Xiufen cleaned her body, she wrapped it in a piece of linen cloth, casually pulled her long hair into a bun, looked at the thin young man and said, "Aren't you going to wash up?"
The young man forced himself to look at the majestic Han Xiufen and said, "Are you a barbarian?"
Han Xiufen shook her head in confusion, then sat in front of the porthole and opened a lambskin Notebook, write and draw on it with a quill pen.
The young man looked at Han Xiufen who was writing. Perhaps the act of writing made him think that Han Xiufen should be a reasonable person, so he slowly approached and looked at the words on the parchment and said: " Is this your writing?"
Han Xiufen said proudly: "This is the most beautiful and accurate writing in the world, a good thing that only high-class people can enjoy."
The young man said unconvinced: "Everyone thinks that their own lamb is the best."
Looking at the young man approaching, Han Xiufen sniffed and said: "You already stink. Why don't you take a good bath?"
The young man's face turned red and he muttered: "I used perfume."
"Your grandfather Charlemagne hated taking a bath. , it seems that this problem has been passed on to you, but as a woman, wouldn’t you feel embarrassed if you didn’t take a shower for many years?
Go take a shower, you pig.”
"You know I'm a woman?" the blond boy screamed.
Han Xiufen looked at the blond girl and her maid with gloomy eyes and said: "The odor on women is different from the odor on men. I haven't seen you yet, and I have noticed from the strong bloody smell. I smell your stench in my breath.
Go and take a shower. If you don't get rid of the stench on your body, I will throw you out and let you sleep with those dirty sailors. Together."
"Oh, no!"
The blond girl quickly came to the wooden bucket filled with water and said to the maid: "Weisel, come here and help me. I don’t want to live with a sailor like a pig.”
When the girl took off her clothes and was about to take a bath, she suddenly found Han Xiufen looking at their bodies intently.
So, she screamed and covered her breasts.
Han Xiufen said irritably: "Take your hand away, I'm painting."
The girl didn't seem to object to painting, but the plump maid beside her was Show off the beauty of your body in a coquettish way.
Han Xiufen is a very good painter, serious and serious.real.
After painting the two female bodies, she took out a picture album from her luggage. After opening the picture album, she found that it was full of erotic portraits of oriental women. She kept flipping through it, and her eyes finally fell on In a portrait that looks exactly like Qian Duoduo's, the girl's portrait is constantly compared with Qian Duoduo's portrait.
“Qian Duoduo’s body curves are the most graceful among oriental women, but this European woman’s body curves are much worse.
According to logic, beauty has something in common... The physical differences between the East and Westerners shouldn't be so big... Well, this girl doesn't represent the most beautiful Westerners, but Qian Duoduo... Sigh... She is really the most beautiful in the Eastern world..."
The little girl and the maid looked at Han Xiufen while they tried hard to take a bath. It wasn't until Han Xiufen used up the entire soap that they got clean water.
"You need to iron your clothes with boiling water!"
Han Xiufen threw two pieces of linen to the little girl and the maid.
The job of washing clothes was naturally handed over to the maid Visser. The little girl wiped the water droplets from her hair and said to Han Xiufen: "My name is Leonie. You can ask my father for help." Ask for a good price."
"Who is your father?"
"My father is one of the seventeen directors of the Dutch East India Company!"
"Can he give his life for you?"
"No!"
"Can he exchange two battleships for you?"
p>"No!"
"Can you hand over the nautical chart? I mean the nautical chart to the New World."
"I have this chart. Can I trade him for my freedom?"
"No!" Han Xiufen pinched Leonie's slender neck and said, "You are my prisoner, everything you have is mine. "Now, bring me the navigation chart quickly."
"I'll get it..."
When the maid Sewell came to the deck wrapped in a piece of linen and asked for boiling water. , there was dead silence on the deck.
Whether it was a yellow man, a white man, or a dark-skinned sailor, they all stopped what they were doing and looked directly at Sewell.
The thin linen is not enough to completely cover Sevier's body. Whether it is the hemisphere exposed from the top of the linen or the round thighs exposed at the bottom of the linen, they are almost covered by these hungry bodies. His thirsty eyes burned him.
Fortunately, Zhang Chuanli coughed, and everyone reluctantly looked away and pretended to be busy...
The thing used to heat hot water on the Lantian was a broken mirror. This thing was Inlaid in a pot, after finding the sunlight focus, it is a good water boiler.
Sevier stood next to the water boiler, so surprised that she could hardly breathe. She thought it was magic.
Liu Mingliang kindly helped Sewell iron his clothes, and stayed with Sewell who was doing laundry for a long time...
The former captain, now the first mateMario came to Liu Mingliang and said: "I have asked about all the prisoners. They belong to the Dutch East India Company."
Liu Mingliang said: "Sell them all. These people are all good sailors. It's just that they belong to the Dutch East India Company." We can't use it."
"The Princess is too damaged, the main mast and keel are damaged, so it can't be used."
"Then let's scuttle it."
Mario hurriedly boarded the Princess again. After a while, the pirates who stayed on the Princess returned to the Lantian. As the Lantian left, the huge Princess was slowly sinking until the sunset. As we set to the west, the Princess was no longer visible on the sea.
Now, the Lantian has become a flagship, and there are three small warships guarding him behind him.
The pirates climbing on the mast to look out kept sending out signals. This was the signal to find the fat sheep. Therefore, depending on the size of the opponent's ship, there would always be one or two pirate ships leaving the fleet and attacking the prey fiercely. The ground jumped over.
When Han Xiufen put on a beautiful silk cloak and came to the deck with a book in her hand, all the black pirates knelt down and saluted.
It can be seen that these people salute willingly, because on the sea, only Han Xiufen seems to have no prejudice against them. Although she is more cruel than other pirate kings, she is not prejudiced against herself. All subordinates are treated uniformly.
They also have the linen clothes that others have, and they also have their share of the wine that others like to drink, but they cannot drink it anytime and anywhere.
The most important thing is that they are paid, which is very important for black pirates. With money, they can live like a person on the paradise island.
Han Xiufen came to Liu Mingliang and Zhang Chuanli and said: "We were lucky this time. We caught the daughter of the director of the Dutch East India Company and got a direct route map from Europe to the New World from her.
This thing should be sent back to Lantian County and handed over to the county magistrate. Who do you think will go better?"
Liu Mingliang said: "It seems that you are not planning to go back to Lantian County? Really?"
Han Xiufen nodded and said, "I like the sea and wild Europe."
"Are you going to defect?" Zhang Chuanli said in a stern voice.
Han Xiufen smiled and said: "What will you do if I stand on my own?"
Zhang Chuanli took out his short fire blunderbuss and pointed it at Han Xiufen's head and said: "I will kill you. "
"We have lived and died together for so many days, and we have grown up together. How can you do it?"
Zhang Chuanli said: "After killing you, I will just commit suicide. Treat your life as a waste, Han Xiufen, I'm not kidding, if you want to do that, either you kill us, or you are killed by us, there is no third way."
Han Xiufen looked at Liu Mingliang who was standing with Zhang Chuanli and sighed: "We all need to live well, no one wants to die.
I just think the sea needs it moreMe, where I am, the sea there belongs to Lantian County. ”
Zhang Chuanli breathed a sigh of relief, sat down on the deck and said: “Don’t play tricks on us two anymore. We don’t have as profound ideas as you. We can only act according to our own ideas, especially There can't be any misunderstanding between the two of us.
Han Xiufen, I know you are stronger than the two of us combined, but please don’t touch the bottom line of both of us.
If there is a next time, I will shoot first and then investigate the cause. We are not smart, but we both believe that loyalty is more important than ability. ”
Han Xiufen smiled and said: “The core of Confucius’ knowledge is ‘the king, the king, the minister, the father, the son, the son.’ If you can’t get out of this old trap, you will never have a new perspective. This is The difference between us is that when I do knowledge, I ask questions, and when you do knowledge, you imitate others. "
Liu Mingliang said: "We know that Confucianism is aristocratic knowledge, and we also know that Confucius formulated ethics and morals in order to give the world a standard to rely on. We also know that what he meant by 'benevolence' is The love of the superior for the inferior... You see, we know everything, but I think he is right and I like this.
If you don’t like it, that’s your business. If you have the ability to break through in the future, that’s also your business. Don’t pollute my heart with your ideas.
I like the idea of "junjun, minister, father, father, son, will you bite me?"
Han Xiufen shook her head and looked at her two stupid subordinates with pity and sighed. Said: "The biggest official position in your life is probably my deputy general."
Liu Mingliang said: "If you hadn't been messing around on the road, we would have arrived in Europe by now, and I would still be a happy scholar. Instead of dressing like this and accompanying you as a pirate
You, Han Lingshan, Xu Wuxiang, and Zhang Guozhu are all lunatics. They refuse to live a good life arranged by the county magistrate, and they all insist on it. I would be satisfied if I exploded like a firecracker.
You know, my biggest wish in life is to stay in Yushan Academy and teach, teach during the day, go home for dinner at night, and take a walk after dinner. After that, I pour a large glass of wine with ice and drink while preparing lessons and studying. I am willing to live like this for the rest of my life.
If Shanchang allows you people to teach in Yushan, it would be better for you... none of you. If you are willing, Zhang Chuanli and I will be jealous——"
Han Xiufen sneered and said: "It is because Yushan Academy has too many idiots like you that the county magistrate can live like this. Hard work.
A country can be small or weak, but it must never lack a long-term vision, because smallness and weakness are only temporary. As long as there is a long-term vision and perseverance, one day It will become stronger.
Now, our Lantian County is actually the weakest. As long as we can achieve the purpose of holding on, all our strongest manpower is outside, whether it is to block the isolated city or not. This ship we have wandering on the sea is all meThe outstretched arms of Lantian County, one day, our two arms will embrace all the way eastward. As long as these two arms are tightly clasped together, that will be the time when I, Lantian County, will dominate the world.
At that time, these two arms will extend outward again, until the end of the sky and the end of the sea.
Shut your two foul mouths, carefully analyze the current situation, and search for the treasures here. We need ships, good ships, and warships to cover this sea and the land here. Come in.
I tell you, there cannot be too many opportunities to divide the world. This time, we must seize it and seize it tightly! "
Watching Han Xiufen enter the cabin, Liu Mingliang and Zhang Chuanli looked at each other, and the idea of restricting Han Xiufen's power disappeared.
The two of them looked at each other. I have never doubted Han Xiufen's loyalty. It would be ridiculous if people who came out of Yushan Academy still have questions about their loyalty.
The biggest danger to the Lantian at present is not the sultans and caliphs who offer rewards. , but Cohen, the governor of the Dutch East India Company.
If Han Xiufen just wanted to be a pirate, then the conflict between the Lantian and Cohen was not serious, and they even had common interests. < /p>
However, Han Xiufen's becoming a pirate was just a springboard for her. After this year of plundering, Han Xiufen, Liu Mingliang, and Zhang Chuanli all had to admit that this was an extremely rich sea. < /p>
On this coastline, there are countless precious resources. When you think about the people in Lantian County having to work hard to eat, the pigs here only need to lie down and sleep under the coconut trees. They can get enough food.
These three people have experienced hard times. When they found the savage lying under the coconut tree and being crushed to death by coconuts, they felt endless resentment in their hearts. < /p>
The Dutch East India Company, which was just a shop, actually monopolized all foreign trade of Japan and occupied Taiwan. It was crazy about where to get pepper, deerskin, venison, linen, cotton... Liu Mingliang and the others robbed 60,000 deer skins alone.
They obtained countless wealth through robbery. Unfortunately, these wealth cannot be returned to Lantian County, especially the deer skins. Watching it rot away
The two drew countless routes on the map, but finally had to give up - it was too far
Once again, one was consumed in vain. In the evening, a sleepy Zhang Chuanli said: "Tell me, does Han Xiufen already have a solution? "
Liu Mingliang stuffed his head into the bucket and blew out a bunch of bubbles before saying: "You mean that woman? ”
Zhang Chuanli said: “We don’t have enough brains, so we should ask smart people. In the past, there were more smart people than dogs in the academy, but we ignored them. Now, it’s really hard to find a smart person.” It's very difficult. "
"Ask Han Xiufen. ”
Zhang Chuanli agreed with Liu Mingliang’s suggestion, and the two came toHan Xiufen's cabin.
Fortunately, there is no unsightly picture.
Han Xiufen wore a dignified Yushan Academy hairstyle, but she had a lot of hair. With this hairstyle, she seemed to have two heads.
The little blonde girl was wearing a cylindrical linen skirt all over her body, which was really not much to look at. However, her maid had a piece of cloth hanging all over her body, which made people breathe after seeing it. All became urgent.
After the two explained their intention, Han Xiufen said: "The most troublesome thing now is that we cannot establish contact with Lantian County.
It is no longer possible for Han merchant ships to pass through here. The Eighteen Zhizhi are at odds with each other, and no one is willing to help us. In the past, when Zheng Zhilong’s family was not powerful, we could still make use of the people in the Eighteen Zhizhi. Now, Zheng Zhilong has unified the Eighteen Zhizhi, and Liu Xiang and other pirates are dead. , So, there is no possibility.
I want to use this Leonie this time to keep him alive after plundering the Dutch merchant ship next time and let him tell Cohen that he wants his daughter to go back safely. We need to discuss the ransom with the county magistrate. In this way, the county magistrate will have a way to contact us." Liu Mingliang and Zhang Chuanli nodded after hearing this. Zhang Chuanli even helped Han Xiufen tidy up her hair. I feel like Han Xiufen’s hairstyle is not right.
The matter that the two of them had been thinking about for a long time without any solution seemed to be no difficult matter in Han Xiufen's hands. The idea seemed to have been formed when they saw the little Dutch girl for the first time. Sometimes, the gap between people is wider than the gap between people and pigs.
Qian Shaoshao put his hands in the clear water and watched as the blood stains on his hands gradually smeared into the clear water. After changing two basins of water, his hands became as white as jade again.
At this moment, Qian Duoduo was excitedly telling Yun Zhao and Feng Ying Han Xiufen's glorious deeds at sea with Han Xiufen's handwritten letter.
No one else can understand this letter, because this thick letter is completely written in Pinyin. The Dutch cannot understand it, and the people of the Ming Dynasty cannot understand it either. Only in Yushan Academy Here, small children can read it clearly.
"That Dutchman Van der Sar is really bad. He is obviously Han Xiufen's messenger, but he hid this letter without telling us, and he also wanted to pressure us to order Han Xiufen to release him. It's really too bad." That's cunning. If it hadn't been for Shao Shao's last resort, this guy would still be trying to get away with it.
No, I have to let Shao Shao interrogate me again. Han Xiufen said she got me an egg. Don’t let this Dutchman swallow your pearls.”
Yun Zhao grabbed Qian Duoduo and said, “Take a rest and don’t run away again. Where did you get pearls as big as eggs?” It's Han Xiufen who is lying to you. She is afraid that we don't pay attention to maritime trade, so she uses this thing to deceive us. The same is true for the ten-foot-high coral she promised to Feng Ying.
I thought she was gone. On the sea, I can be more reliable, but I still like to fool around.
Now help me write a letter to Han Xiufen in Pinyin, telling him that I am going to make a deal with Zheng Zhilong. He will help me at sea, and I will help him on land.
This man wants to establish himself as the king in Taiwan. Now the island is occupied by the Dutch. His people, Zheng Zhilong, may be brave at sea, but they are useless on land. Building a strong army will not happen overnight. If he wants Taiwan now, he has to rely on our strength. Therefore, I am not afraid that he will harm Han Xiufen and the others.
Tell Han Xiufen to use Zheng Zhilong’s before we establish our own contact channels. At the same time, since she wants to form a navy army, we will continue to send people there. , will also build three battleships identical to the Lantian for her in Quanzhou and Guangzhou.
However, she has to pay the expenses herself. In addition, since she cannot go to Europe, I will send people over to take their place and continue the European trip. "
While Yun Zhao was talking, Qian Duoduo wrote quickly. Feng Ying said worriedly: "We are building warships with such great fanfare. I'm afraid it's not the Yu family that only relies on old disciples and old officials. The person with the face can cover it. "
Yun Zhaodao: "Yu Zigao, in the Battle of Tongshan, the Dutch army failed to encircle and suppress Zheng Zhilong, and the whole army was wiped out. It was tragic that the dignified Fujian general officer was beheaded.
It’s just that he is Yu Dayou’s son.
Ah Ying, Qi Jiajun still has a few people who can fight now. Why didn’t Yu Dayou, who was on par with Qi Shuai back then, leave half of his people available?
Feng Ying spread his hands and said: "There is no way, there are only these left. I can use them as I see fit. It is better to use some than to use nothing at all." "
"It seems that we have strengthened the construction of Fujian and Guangdong. Tell Mr. Xu that this year, we will recruit more Fujian and Guangdong students. We don't want the descendants of famous generals, but just scholars from ordinary people's families. "
Feng Ying nodded, it is not too late to train his own people now."
Zheng Zhibao did not leave Lantian County, he was waiting for Van der Sar.
Since we came together, we naturally have to go back together.
He naturally knew about Yun Zhao's words and deeds about forcing a confession from Van der Sar, and he didn't think there was anything wrong. Many of Yun Zhao's methods of dealing with things were very similar to his elder brother's.
It’s all so simple and straightforward!
But if you think about it, you will understand that one is from a bandit family and the other is a pirate. It is really unusual for them to have something in common.
I haven’t seen Van der Sar for three days, and when I saw him again, this originally pale man looked like a vampire.
But his clothes were still intact, even very neat, and there were no scars on his face or hands.
But from the way Van der Sar walked, Zheng Zhibao felt that this guy was at least a hundred years old.
His energy seemed to have been drained away.
After returning, Van der Sar fell asleep, even in his sleep he would make baby-like noises.Cries of grievance.
In the past three days, Zheng Zhibao did not go to see the prosperity of Lantian County, but stayed at the Phoenix Mountain Military Camp for three days.
In these three days, he unknowingly spent as much as two hundred and thirty thousand taels of silver.
After personally testing Lantian County's new weapons, if he could be a bigger master, he would definitely spend more money without hesitation.
Of course, the silver will not be delivered in Lantian County, nor will it even be given to Lantian County in the future, but will be delivered in the form of goods in Guangzhou.
Zheng Zhibao didn't know how to describe Lantian County. He just wanted to rush back to Tong'an County, Quanzhou Prefecture as soon as possible and tell his elder brother everything he saw and heard here.
