When Zhou Yingping followed Qi Tian to the bottom of the Spanish galleon and saw nearly two hundred boxes full of silver bullion, he was beyond shocked. At the same time, an uncontrollable greed arose in his heart. With so much silver,

They should all be piled in the cellar of my house!

When it came to the joint venture, Zhou Yingping obviously did not have that much confidence. Qiqi Ai Aidi said that he could only spend 20,000 taels of silver, plus his lucky ship of less than 300 tons.

Finally, after some negotiation, Qi Tian, ​​as the pirate side, paid 140,000 taels of silver, plus two large ships, and Zhou Yingping paid 25,000 taels of silver, plus a lucky ship. Considering Zhou Yingping's role, let him hold 30% of the shares.

, Cao Xiong held 70% of the shares, and the joint capital totaled 200,000 taels of silver, and established Nanyang Trading Company.

Zhou Yingping is responsible for the daily operations of Nanyang Trading Company. Cao Xiong's pirates will not interfere too much, but they must not harm the rights and interests of shareholders. At the same time, as shareholders, the company's business management resources can be given priority to shareholders, and shareholders must pay 10% of the profits from the business.

Through this article, it can be guaranteed that the Nanyang Trading Company will give priority to serving the future colonization of Australia.

Qi Tian signed the joint venture documents for Cao Xiong with satisfaction, and then handed the documents to Zhou Yingping.

After Zhou Yingping saw Qi Tian write down the joint venture document, he put away his contempt for the young man in front of him. He had just confirmed that this document had the most clauses and the most restrictive rights and obligations he had ever seen, but other

The logic is also the most rigorous. The document listing a number of clauses was filled with four pieces of white paper. When it was his turn to sign and sign, he hesitated a little. He didn't know what kind of complicated problems would arise after he signed it.

Is the boy in front of me really a little pirate?

"Shopkeeper Zhou, we will be a family from now on!" Qi Tian blew on the still-marked document and said with a smile, "Our first cooperation will probably happen soon."

"Really?" Zhou Yingping shook his head and said, "I'm afraid I can't start until I sell the goods purchased from Sulu in Batavia."

"No, the goods you purchased in Sulu must not be resold!"

"Why? Do you want to buy the goods from me?" Zhou Yingping thought about how much profit he would add to the profit later?

"We won't buy it!" Qi Tian smiled and shook his head, "Because Sulu has decided to go to Bo Ni in the near future, so your boat will be requisitioned by them!"

Zhou Yingping heard this and looked at Qi Tian in shock.

"King Dong, we have collected all the ships, but they can only hold two thousand people." King Dong reported to King Dong.

"Two thousand people?" Dongwang Zou raised his eyebrows and ordered 3,000 people to attack the capital of Balni. The troops were already deployed according to the minimum strength. There were no less than 20,000 officials, soldiers, and people in the capital of Balni. The number of people to attack was

If we have fewer troops, we might have to be counterattacked.

"Collected all the ships?"

"Yes, including the merchant ships docked at the dock," King Dong said: "King Dong, why don't we wait for ten days and wait until enough ships are mobilized from Sulu City and nearby islands before we attack Bo Ni.

"

"There is not enough time!" King Dong sighed, "A few days ago, I received news from Luzon that the Westerners will attack our Sulu. And a few days ago, the Westerners attacked our three ships in Sulu.

Who knows that the ship is not their vanguard? Therefore, we must quickly break through Bo Ni, and then transfer all personnel and materials into the mountains and forests, or transport them to Sulu City to avoid the attacks of the Westerners."

"If we cannot conquer Bo Ni, we, Sulu, will always have to be in the unfavorable situation of being besieged from two sides."

"What if there are not enough ships?" King Dong asked worriedly.

"Bring some gold, silver and wine, go to the pirate's place and ask the young man if he has any good ideas to solve my captain's predicament," King Dong ordered.

"King Dong, there is not enough savings on the island. There is only a little gold and silver, but the other party may not be willing to use it."

"We didn't let them take the lead in attacking the capital of Bo Ni. We only used big ships to protect our Sulu soldiers as they landed. How dare they ask for too much?"

After King Dong finished speaking, he walked a few steps in the hall, and then shook his head helplessly, "Tell them, after conquering the Balni capital, give them... 20% of what they gain after the war!"

"Two percent?" Qi Tian shook his head and said: "Thirty percent! We want 30%! Bombard the defenses of the capital of Balni, guard your retreat in Sulu, and alert for reinforcements from Bali... All of these will cost us

Weapons and supplies, and even personnel were injured. Therefore, we must capture at least 30% of it!"

"This, I need to go back and report to the King of the East for his decision." King Dong said helplessly, "In addition, I, Sulu, are attacking Bali, but there are not enough ships. Young man, can you think of a way to solve it?"

"You don't have enough ships!" Qi Tian said dumbly, "Oh, I'm afraid this attack on Bo Ni will not be postponed... There is a way, but it is a bit dangerous and many people may die.

!”

"Chopping wood for a platoon?" Dong Wang was stunned, and then laughed, "This young man is really quick and quick. For a moment, we didn't even think... As long as there is no wind and waves, the wooden platoon will be able to reach Brunei City. Haha.

...Just for this idea he came up with, 30% of it will be seized and given to them!"

"If this young man hadn't been so smart, I would have really wanted to subdue this group of pirates, thinking that I, Sulu Barrier, would command all the navy."

"This young man is so smart. If he subdues them, wouldn't it be more beneficial to me, Sulu?" King Dong was puzzled.

"Smart people are often very ambitious, and they are also wise! When they grow up, who can control them in Sulu?"

King Dong didn't think so. He was just a young man, so why was he so afraid?

The Sulu Kingdom began to prepare intensively to attack Bo Ni, and the anger of the Spaniards in the northeast not far from them had been ignited.

"This is barbaric banditry and they must be punished!" Philippine Governor Luis Dasmarina roared angrily.

After the Dorion and three other Spanish galleons were defeated by Cao Xiong and Sulu, they fled back to Manila in a panic and reported the situation to the commander of the fleet, Major General Lar Guinho, as soon as possible.

Major General Lar Guinho was extremely surprised when he heard the reports from the three captains who had escaped. The great Spanish navy was actually defeated by a group of pirates and natives, and the ships were seriously damaged. Could it be that my ears are wrong?

Got a problem? Or maybe there are three idiots talking nonsense in front of me.

But he followed the three captains to the dock, looked at the pitiful and severely damaged ships, and had to accept this reality. The Spanish navy was indeed defeated by a group of dirty pirates and ignorant natives!

After listening to all the descriptions of the three captains in detail, Major General Lar Guinho's face became a little solemn. The Santa Cruz was captured, the captain was killed, some of the crew were held hostage, and most importantly, the silver and cargo on the ship

All were lost with the capture of ships. The silver was the property of the kingdom, the weapons were to supplement the Philippine colonial army, and some velvet, cocoa, and tobacco were the private goods of some big shots in the Peruvian Prosecution Court. Now it seems that the situation is a bit serious.

.

Major General Lar Guinho did not dare to hide it, so he immediately went to the Governor's Palace and reported the matter to the Governor.

Yesterday, the Governor of the Philippines, Luis Das Marina, also received a messenger report from the town of San Fernando. The town was attacked by Eastern pirates. They robbed almost all the Ming immigrants and the craftsmanship in the town.

As for the damage to people and property, it must be quite huge.

"So, we must retaliate, we must avenge the people of God!" Governor Luis Dasmarina said with a sullen face: "We must make those pirates and natives pay a corresponding price, and the honor of the Kingdom of Spain

, cannot be tarnished!”

Major General Lal Guinio nodded. For his own future and to account for the kingdom, he must cooperate with the Governor-General's arrangements.

"We need to gather more people and materials. We need to conduct a thorough cleanup of the islands where the natives are located. Of course, it is best to catch those pirates!" Governor Luis Dasmarina announced loudly

Order, he also knew that it was not easy to give up catching pirates on the vast sea. "Issue a wanted order for all merchant ships traveling to and from Manila. Anyone who provides and informs the whereabouts of the pirates will be given a warrant by the Governor's Office."

Five thousand pesos reward! Whoever it is!”

"Sir Governor, are there any surviving Ming immigrants in San Fernando? Perhaps they can provide some useful information." Major General Lar Guinho asked.
