1635 Han style rises again

Chapter 43 Sulu ([-])

"Because the king of Boni is a descendant of our Daming people!" Qi Tian said softly.

"The king of Boni is a descendant of the Ming people!" Cao Xiong and Qi Dajiang were taken aback. They thought that all of Nanyang were short, small, dark-skinned natives like Su Lu.Now that Qi Tian actually said that Bo Ni's king was a descendant of Ming Dynasty, he felt curious.

In his previous life, when Qi Tian traveled to Southeast Asia with his wife and children, he visited Brunei and visited the "Tomb of Zongbing Huang".We learned that during the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, Huang Senping, the Ming general, was ordered to go to Southeast Asia. He led thousands of troops to Borneo (now Kalimantan Island), and stayed temporarily in case of a storm.Open up territory, develop power, and later marry Boni to fight against Sulu and the southern states of Borneo.After two consecutive generations of Sultan passed away in Boni, his grandson (Huang Senping's younger sister) Sharif Ali inherited the throne and passed it on to later generations.

"Then..., are we still helping Su Lu fight that Bo Ni?" Qi Dajiang asked with a frown after hearing Qi Tian's brief introduction to Bo Ni.

"Although he is a descendant of my Ming Dynasty, the descendants have married with the people of Bo mud one after another. Heh... I don't know how much of the Ming blood is left."

"But I think Bo Ni, who is somewhat of Ming blood, is much closer?"

"In Daming, those corrupt officials, tyrants, rebels and rebels are all of our Daming's pure blood. Do you feel close?"

"You..." Being robbed by Qi Tian, ​​Qi Dajiang was a little annoyed, and patted his bare head, "I just feel that in Nanyang, thousands of miles away, I met a native who has something to do with my Daming." King, get closer!"

"You son of a bitch, who do you call me old man!" Seeing this, Cao Xiong gave Qi Dajiang a hard push on the shoulder, "What are you doing gesticulating? Don't make our little military adviser stupid!"

Cao Xiong was very satisfied with Qi Tian after the incident with Prince Su Lu just now.Those words such as little knowledge, extensive knowledge, and pointing out the country are not referring to his 15-year-old nephew.In the future, this nephew must be well protected. My sister gave birth to several rough embryos, and finally a little one became a unicorn.No way, we can really rely on this good nephew. On the southern continent, we will build a country, become a king, and honor our ancestors.

"...Uncle, I'll go to the boat and call half of the people down to get some air." Qi Dajiang glanced at Qi Tian and went out.Outside the door, he waved his fist with a relieved smile on his face.From now on, the third child and I must take good care of this smart fourth brother.

"Dong Wang, do we still want to..." On the way back to the palace, Dong Wang walked up to Dong Wang and asked softly.

"No need. We are going to attack Brunei (Boni's capital at this time, now Bandar Seri Begawan), and we still need their big ships." Dong Wang shook his head and said.

"We can kill their men and take their ships!"

"Having seized the boat, who in Sulu can steer it within five days?"

"Oh, Dong Wang is thinking about it." Dong Wang said with a bow.

"Send the rewards and supplies before dark." Dong Wang said, "That young man is knowledgeable and intelligent. Presumably, only the great Ming Dynasty can produce such a character!" Dong Wang looked at Xi Wang calmly. King Hedong sighed in his heart.

King Xi and King Dong agreed.

"In addition..." Dong Wang looked at the surrounding guards and soldiers on both sides of the street, "Five days later, troops will be dispatched to take the capital of Boni King Brunei City."

"Yes. Dong Wang, how many troops do we plan to send?"

"Three thousand, pick all the elite! I will lead the troops myself!"

"East King!"

"Eastern King! You can't take risks, if King Boni is prepared, wouldn't it be dangerous!"

"Otherwise, how can we call it death for future generations! That is to say, our Sulu Kingdom has too few ships. Otherwise, if we go all out, we might wipe out that Boni in one fell swoop." Dong Wang said solemnly, "No need to say more, Go get ready!"

"Yes!"

"Yes"

King Xi and King Dong bowed their heads and promised.

"You two killers, what are you doing squatting on the ground?" Cao Xiong and Hu Wenjin walked out of the gate of the building, ready to go to the pier where the boats were berthed.But he didn't want to. He saw Niu Hu and Luo Daqi squatting on the ground at the door, each drawing a branch with a brush, so he stepped forward and kicked them twice.

"Master Cao, let's practice writing!" Luo Daqi got up from the ground and patted the ashes on his buttocks.

"You're an idiot, can you still read?" Cao Xiong wondered.

"I taught him!" Niu Hu standing next to him said proudly, puffing out his chest.

"You're a rudimentary who can read and write, why don't you teach me?" Cao Xiong was even more astonished.

"Yes... Xiaotian taught me, and I taught Daqi." Niu Hu said.

"Oh, Xiaotian taught you!" Cao Xiong was stunned, "You two have learned to read and write, what are you doing?"

"To kill better and faster!" Niu Hu said, and then he repeated to Cao Xiong what he had said to Luo Daqi.

Cao Xiong and Hu Wenjin looked at each other with incredible expressions on their faces.But thinking of the ability of a scholar that Qi Tian just showed, I don't think so, but I believe it.

"From now on, everyone will come to learn how to read and write!" Cao Xiong muttered, since reading and reading can enlighten wisdom and make sense, then we all know how to read and write, won't it be even better?

In the afternoon, inside the building.

Qi Tian sat across from Zhou Yingping and didn't speak for a while.He was thinking about what words he should use to convince him to serve their weak pirate group wholeheartedly instead of being a simple broker.

Zhou Yingping looked at the bald-headed boy in front of him, looking serious, and couldn't help feeling absurd in his heart.If it weren't for a pirate with a knife standing outside the door, he would really like to touch that bald head and play a few words, this image, placed in an ancient temple deep in the mountains, will definitely attract more foolish women and girls to come to offer incense , Added a lot of sesame oil money to those big monks.

"Shopkeeper Zhou, are you making fun of me... this bald head?" Qi Tian stroked his bald head.

"Uh, no, no..." Zhou Yingping was startled, how could this boy guess what I was thinking at this time.

"Oh, it's nothing. Judging by Shopkeeper Zhou's expression, he must think that the kid is messing around and somewhat deviant, right?"

"...Body, hair and skin, received by parents. This..., how can this be discarded at will?"

"Oh, it's true, the body and skin are from the parents. Where did the shopkeeper Zhou's extra fingernails and toenails go? Where did the extra beard under the chin go?" Qi Tian asked with a smile.

"Huh?" Zhou Yingping was stunned, the extra nails were naturally cut, and the beard of course needed more trimming.Whoops, these seem to be body hair skins too!This young man, why... why is he so...so arrogant!No wonder I became a little pirate, and I can't even chat.

"Shopkeeper Zhou, how much money can you earn a year running around on the sea?" Qi Tian asked again.

"Ah?" Zhou Yingping was taken aback, why did he ask about my income? What do you mean?Wouldn't you want to tie me up and ask my family to redeem the money?

Oh, yes, asking a man about his income, perhaps, no matter in later generations or in ancient times, it is quite taboo.Qi Tian touched his nose and smiled self-deprecatingly.

"Shopkeeper Zhou, the sea is very windy and rough. If you encounter pirates or storms, it must be very dangerous. Moreover, you only have one boat, so the risk is even greater!" Qi Tian said.

"Not bad!" Zhou Yingping nodded with emotion, thinking about the various risks he had encountered in the past few years, he sighed.

"However, just because the risks at sea are extremely high, the benefits are also extremely high, right?"

Zhou Yingping looked at Qi Tian and nodded, but he thought in his heart that the profits of you pirates who do business without capital must be extremely high.

"Treasurer Zhou, Shen Wansan at the beginning of the Kingdom, do you know?"

"The family's wealth is huge, and the wealth can rival the country! I wait for the businessman, of course I know."

"Where is Tao Zhugong from the Spring and Autumn Period?"

"Retiring after success, rich and aged, it is desirable!"

"Where is Lu Buwei from the Warring States period?"

"Invest in the monarch, bet on strengthening the Qin Dynasty, and be a role model for our generation of merchants!"

"So, shopkeeper Zhou, which one do you want to learn?"
