The heavens start from saving Daming

Chapter 407 Nanyang Affairs

The people in the fleet are crazy.

The ruthless ones, wielding knives and wearing leather armor, went deep into the island in groups to destroy the savages everywhere.

Those who don't want to go also have work to do. They rushed to the Spice Islands and looked at the all kinds of spices all over the mountains and plains. They first shouted, and then went forward to pick them crazily with sacks.

All kinds of spices basically grow on the branches, reach out to pick them off and put them in cloth bags. This is money.

Knowing that there is no danger nearby, Li Yunze simply agreed to allow the sailors on the ship to disembark and go to the island to pick.

According to the agreement before the departure, in addition to the basic salary, everyone will get spices equal to their own body weight as a reward.

In order to stimulate everyone's enthusiasm for work, Li Yunze announced again before everyone disembarked that as long as they handed over one hundred catties of spices, they could get an extra catty of spices as a reward.

Based on the current price of spices in Datang, the value of a catty of spices is much more than a catty of copper coins.

Under such a strong stimulus, it is natural for everyone to strive to be the first.

The only one who was not so excited was Li Yunze himself.

On the one hand, it was because he was not short of money, and on the other hand, it was because he knew that when a large amount of spices were put into the market, the price would avalanche.

As for hoarding and reluctance to sell, that's impossible.

There are so many spices on the Spice Islands, and I will come back next year after picking them this year.So much is made every year, whoever dares to hoard goods is really hoarding his wealth and life.

After the madness that lasted for several days, everyone on the island finally took a breath and regained some sanity.

With difficulty, he dragged two bags of spices each weighing more than a hundred catties onto the boat. Ma Zhou, whose eyes were no longer so red, took a breath and walked towards Li Yunze.

At this time, Li Yunze was lying on the recliner, with a parasol propped up beside him.

Although it was winter, the sunlight near the equator was still very poisonous. When the people who went to the island came back, they all looked like black charcoal.

Li Yunze was reading a book lying on the recliner, and the sharp-eyed Ma Zhou glanced at the cover, vaguely seeing "golden bottle." or something.

Putting away the book calmly, Li Yunze motioned to the lemon juice on the stool next to him, "Have a glass?"

"I"

Just as Ma Zhou wanted to say that I was just thirsty, Li Yunze reached out to take the lemon juice away, "Not thirsty? If not, forget it."

Withdrawing his outstretched hand, Ma Zhou scratched his head, "Master, why do you want to wipe out all the aborigines on the island?"

"What?" Li Yunze raised his eyebrows with a half-smile, "Have you softened your heart?"

"No."

Ma Zhou shook his head again and again, "It's just that the weather is too hot, and the camp on the island is full of heads, and the smell is really unbearable."

"You can go back to the boat if you can't stand it." Li Yunze drank the sour lemon juice, "Don't use these useless excuses, I know what you mean."

"What do you think of these islands?"

Ma Zhou froze for a moment, then turned to look at the island not far away, "It's okay."

"It is said that food is the most important thing for the people. After the large-scale popularization of spices in the future, the demand will be huge." Li Yunze said earnestly, "These islands are natural spice stores, and these places will also be brought under the jurisdiction of China."

Ma Zhou, who was listening carefully, was still puzzled, "You can educate these aborigines by enlightening the sages."

"These savages are all illiterate, they don't know who is a saint, and they can't understand what they say." Li Yunze narrowed his eyes, "And they are lazy, cruel by nature, and they always welcome the people from Central Earth who come from the south with butcher's knives. of its despicable cruelty

Inferiority, it does not look like a human being. "

"Keeping this kind of savage can only cause endless harm to future generations." Speaking of which, Li Yunze reached out and knocked on the stool beside him, "Although we are working harder now, we can leave a clean place for future generations. land. Don't give these savages a lift

The opportunity of the knife, weeds must be eradicated. "

Ma Zhou is not a pedantic person, but he just doesn't understand why Li Zhuangzhu, who seemed kind in Guanzhong, is so cruel here.

There are so many islands here, and almost every island has dozens, hundreds or even thousands of savages.

This is too harsh.

Ma Zhou couldn't figure it out because he had never seen how these savages treated the people from Middle Earth so cruelly.

Li Yunze had seen it before, so he simply didn't give them the chance to slaughter the people who abused Middle Earth.

He didn't bother to explain to Ma Zhouduo, and simply ordered, "It's hot, remember to ask them to dig a hole and bury it. When we come back next year, there will probably be more spices here."

Ma Zhou sighed lightly, knowing that it was useless to say more, he could only say goodbye and leave.

"Another one who is stupid in reading." Li Yunze, who closed his eyes, sipped his lemon juice and hummed softly, "Treat outsiders like a cold wind, and treat your own people like a spring breeze. I don't understand this. What are you reading?" Book."

Li Yunze really wanted to intervene in related education, but whenever he had this kind of thought, there would always be divine beasts looming in the sky.

In order to avoid his time-traveling journey being forcibly terminated, he could only choose to give up.

There is no way, the power of the saint is too great.

There is no danger on the sea in this era, especially in this non-storm period.

Of course there are pirates, and they even follow them all the way.

But their strength is too weak, they are definitely not opponents with ten big ships and thousands of young and strong manpower.

As for the local indigenous savages, who use sticks and stones as weapons, they are no match for the Tang people.

Colonists of Europa. Just kidding, there are no shadows.

In order to increase efficiency, not the efficiency of picking spices, but the efficiency of cleaning up the natives on each island, Li Yunze spread the fleet to different islands to do cleaning work.

Those who can come here are men who dare to take risks. Whether it is spices or savages, they are all rich in money, and they all work with great enthusiasm.

However, with the dispersal of the fleet, the pirates who had followed from afar in the Champa Kingdom sensed the coming of the opportunity.

Organizations like pirates have existed for a long time.

With the rise of the Maritime Silk Road, there are more and more pirates on the ocean.

They not only attacked merchant ships, but also often landed and plundered villages and towns.

Because of the lack of early warning capabilities, by the time the officers and soldiers got the news and arrived, the pirates had already plundered and left.

Pirates are difficult to destroy, and their numbers are increasing, and they have become a very serious scourge.

This time Li Yunze led the fleet to the south, the scale of which naturally attracted the attention of many pirates.

The pirates were extremely envious of the huge ships that looked like moving castles in the fleet.

Many pirates thought, if they could have such a huge ship in their hands, wouldn't they be running amok on the ocean?
It's just that Li Yunze's fleet has as many as ten ships, and most of the ships are strong and strong men, and the idle pirates are self-aware and dare not provoke them.

When Li Yunze was in Lingnan and repairing in Champa, all the pirates in Nanyang, big and small, had gathered together to discuss and decide to be the big one to snatch these treasure ships.

The following fleet went south for thousands of miles and went deep into the ocean. Ordinary small pirate ships couldn't keep up. Only a small number of large pirates had large ships to barely hang in the distance.

Only the biggest island owners were the only pirates who could catch up all the way here. There were 600 people on three ships.

They had to seize the big ship now, because the pirates didn't have enough supplies to support them back to the shore, and they didn't know how to change the way back.

If you don't want to stay on this island as a savage, then you have to take the ship.

Li Yunze separated the fleet and gave them a chance to do something.

That night, the moon was dark and the wind was high, and under the cover of night, the three ships quietly approached the big ship where Li Yunze was.

The hull of the big ship is very high, looking like a city wall.

The pirates skillfully threw their hooks and climbed up nimbly.

There was silence on the spacious deck, not even a night watchman.

The pirates with thick hands and feet bit their sharp knives in their mouths, gesticulated and quietly touched the cabin, ready to kill the sleeping crew members and seize the ship.

The cheerful pirates slowly pushed open the hatch, but the smiles on their faces stopped abruptly.

Inside the cabin door, rows of armored soldiers raised their shields in array, and the horizontal knives in their hands flashed the icy light.

How could the pirates' primitive methods escape Li Yunze's surveillance?

In addition to speeding up work efficiency, the reason for separating the fleet is to give them a chance to do it.

Now is the time to close the net.

The brigade of soldiers poured out from the cabin, knocking down the pirates in front of them like snow in spring.

The pirates are not bad at fighting, nor do they lack the courage to fight to the death.But the problem is that what they encountered was a regular army, and they were all in armor.

The five hundred soldiers that Li Yunze borrowed from Feng An completely controlled the situation at this moment.

Li Yunze, who watched Fang Yiai and the others lead Zhang Fan to speed up, pushed wooden barrels full of oil onto several pirate ships, threw torches to ignite them and completely cut off the pirates' retreat, and ordered Zhang Fan to speed up, satisfied Walking up to Feng Zhidai, he said, "Lingnan soldiers fought well.

, Each person will be rewarded with a hundred catties of spices.All the armor and weapons lent to them were given away. "

Hearing this, Feng Zhidai's face was full of joy.

A hundred catties of spices per person is nothing. Over the past few days, the amount of spices collected on various islands has even reached the point where everyone is numb.

But those five hundred sets of armor and weapons were absolutely good things, he had never seen such a good armor.

If it is used on the mountain battlefield, it is a rampant vanguard trump card.

The pirates' ships were burned, and the pirates who had lost their way of retreat frantically desperately stimulated by despair.

But the sharp blades in their hands couldn't break through the defense at all. Facing the iron wall encircled by the officers and soldiers, they quickly lost their courage after desperate resistance, and the rest of them all knelt on the bloody deck and begged for mercy.

"Let them wash the deck first."

Li Yunze said aloud, "If we continue to procrastinate and interrogate one by one, all those whose hands are stained with the blood of the Tang people will be disposed of and thrown into the sea to feed the fish. The rest, find an uninhabited island and throw them down."

"That's right." Li Yunze then added, "Ask where the lairs of the island owners are."

Hearing this, Ma Zhou was surprised and asked, "Could it be possible to find the pirates' lair?"

"I don't care if they plundered foreign merchant ships, but after they landed, they bloodbathed the villages and towns and committed countless crimes. You are still an official of the court. Have you ever thought of avenging those evil spirits?"

Li Yunze's sense of Ma Zhou was getting lower and lower, "To cut the weeds, we must get rid of the roots!"
