On this day in 1600, the three future celebrities in East Asia's pirate world gathered in a simple hotel in Dongfanjing Port, drinking and chatting with Yin Feng.

Li Dan was indeed one of the rare people in China at that time who knew the world outside China very well. He was fluent in Spanish and Portuguese, as well as Japanese, and was proficient in Hokkien, Cantonese, Beijing Mandarin and other local dialects - this made him

Yin Feng felt ashamed. Li Dan knew the difference between Spain and Portugal, and also knew that the two countries shared the same king. He claimed to have been baptized as a Catholic, but he was baptized into the religion in order to participate in the election of the Chinese Kapitan (Chinese leader) in Manila.

Because the Spaniards stipulated that Chinese Japitans must be Catholics. But in fact, many local Chinese believers who were forced to convert often took off their crosses when they returned home and put them on again when they went to Manila to do business.

Li Dan was not selected for the position of Chinese leader Kabidan because he was too young and not qualified enough, but he was still one of the leaders among the Chinese in Manila. Since Yin Feng came from the West and was very familiar with the outside world, the two of them had a lot in common.

This made Li Dan unconsciously feel close to him. After hearing about Yin Feng's business plan, Li Dan asked: "Why risk going to Jiangnan to smuggle raw silk?"

Yin Feng said: "Brother Li, does he know how much the purchase price of Manila raw silk is?"

"Last year's price was about 240 taels per quintal."

"The purchase price of raw silk in Macau this year is 150 taels per quintal. I have inquired, and the price of raw silk purchased directly in Jiangnan is twice as low."

Li Dan nodded: "This naturally saves the intermediate turnover link and greatly increases the profit. However, the risk is too great." He drank down a large bowl of local wine in one gulp, stretched out his hand and raised a finger: "I heard it from Brother Lu.

Brother Yin is very courageous and loyal. He was brave and strategic in dealing with the Japanese pirates in the morning, which is admirable. Brother Yin and I met very late, and we are not afraid of talking about it. I secretly thought that Brother Yin was reckless in this trip!

"

Yin Feng's eyes lit up; he never thought that he was invincible as a time traveler. His advantages only lay in his language communication skills with foreigners, his grasp of historical trends, and his written knowledge of the general overseas trade situation at that time.
