"The big shopkeeper has seen Fuei Island. We are lucky and lucky. This incident has come down smoothly again, haha."

Wang Hai turned his head and looked at it. In the clear weather, the sea surface was calm and peaceful. Fifteen big blessed boats puffed up their sails and sailed calmly on the blue waves. Compared with the storms that had experienced two days ago, it was a beautiful scenery that was truly harmonious.

He could fully realize the joy of his sailors. It was really not easy to go out to sea to make a living. Even if he fought with the Tartars in a border town, the dangerous place would be no more.

"Well, it's good to be safe. I don't know if the Xie family fleet has arrived. If they are robbed by them, they will be ridiculed by Xie Feng again."

"Shopkeeper, please be honest. Apart from the storm the day before yesterday, we have been doing well all the way. We haven't even used it for a month, and we are snatching the port that we left in front of other companies. Haha, no one can give the boat wings, how can we still snatch it from us? Anyway, I, Lao Wu, don't believe that evil."

"It's better." Wang Hai said with relief, but his heart was intensively thinking.

The Wang family saved a lot of old tea and silk last year, so they were able to sail before other families. I heard last year that the old customer Danei family is going to go to Kyoto this year. If you grab this trip, you might make a lot of money.

Although I have never been to Kyoto, Wang Hai thought that since it is a capital, it must be more prosperous than Kyushu Island? It will take winter to return. Maybe this trip can be done to Kyoto to try your luck!

If a new business path can be opened and the profits are abundant this time, maybe the head of the family would be happy and would be kind to let himself go home to retire. If this could be done, it would be great.

Having been drifting on the sea for decades, Wang Hai has had enough of such a day of insecurity. The dangers at sea are not only from the wind and waves. The brutal Japanese people will turn from companions to pirates at any time. The abnormal movements of sailors are the most deadly.

In addition to being able to live to this day, Wang Hai believes that to a greater extent, he depends on God's blessing, so that he can turn bad luck into good luck again and again.

But God's favor cannot always follow someone, and good luck will always be used up. What should I do at that time? Although I am only in my forties now, Wang Hai has been hoping to go home to take care of his old age, but this wish is not so easy to come true.

The biggest obstacle comes from his master's family.

The sea trade in Sixia is not a secret matter in Jiangnan, but even if it is an open secret and hinders the imperial court's laws, no one will tell it clearly, even if the Wang family, who has a grand clerk, is the same.

Old ship owners like Wang Hai know too much. Once they are used by those who are interested, it will be a pain that the Wang family cannot bear. Although the scholars in Jiangnan are working together in the court, in fact, the sixia is not harmonious.

It is difficult to distinguish interests evenly after all. There are only a few positions for the Grand Secretary. If the Wang family goes up, someone will have to come down. This can be seen from the change in the Xie family's attitude towards the Wang family.

Originally, the Wang and Xie families were in the same mood, but since Grand Secretary Xie was dismissed and Grand Secretary Wang entered the palace, the two families had a lot more dirty things, and even the fleets going to sea were strife.

Wang Hai believed that if we met on a narrow road on the sea and were confident enough, Xie Feng would not be ruthless to him, and of course the same was true. Anyway, as long as we deal with the final treatment, no one could provide evidence to settle the account afterwards.

Because of this, his retirement plan was repeatedly pushed forward. Even if he repeatedly asked for it, the reply from the master's family still asked him to work for a few more years. Faced with such a situation, Wang Hai was helpless. The Wang family was very good at Jiangnan's family, and after making a decision, he could not help but give birth to a child like him.

Forget it, I don’t think about it anymore, so I’d better do this business well. I looked up at Fujiang Island, which was already vaguely looking at. Wang Hai sighed and shook his head, leaving those messy thoughts behind. The captain could not show his weak side at the sea, otherwise it would affect the morale of the entire fleet and even let the enemy find an opportunity to take advantage of it.

"Let's go over and send people to call us to report the name of our Shanhai Business Company."

Fukue Island is still the same. There are several bamboo houses near the dilapidated pier. The fence in the distance is the Ishida Castle of the Matsuura Party. Every time Wang Hai thinks this thing is called a castle, he finds it very funny, even if he knew it twenty years ago.

However, as the fleet approached, Wang Hai always felt something was wrong. It was not until he arrived when he was docking that someone came up that he realized that the people on the island were wrong!

He was quite surprised. When he left Fukue Island last winter, it was still the territory of the Matsuura Party, but now...

With the Yingren Rebellion decades ago, Kyushu Island has been in constant war, and it is not surprising that the Matsuura Party was robbed of territory. But no matter who defeated the Matsuura Party, the Japanese people who occupied Fukue Island should be the ones who occupied Fukue Island?

However, it was obviously not the Japanese samurai who were stationed at the pier, wearing yukatas and long swords stuck in their waists, but a group of soldiers wearing strange clothes holding spears. In these people, they could not see the fierce and cruelty of the Japanese samurai, but instead had some inexplicable arrogance.

What's going on? Wang Hai is a little confused.

"The big shopkeeper, the one on the dock... seems to be a Korean." Finally, the sailors in the fleet had mixed identities and were very knowledgeable, so they gave a reminder to Wang Hai.

"North Koreans?" This answer made Wang Hai even more confused. The North Koreans defeated the Matsuura Party and occupied Fukue Island?

Oh my God, what's wrong with this world? After drifting on the sea for so long, Wang Hai has never heard that the Japanese went to steal the Koreans. On the other hand, that has happened since the creation of the world.

But now, the living Korean soldiers told him that this was the truth, because the people on the dock had already started to shout, and Wang Hai couldn't understand a word of what he said, obviously it was not Japanese or Chinese.

"Ask the people below whether anyone knows Korean language or not. If so, let him go forward and answer and tell those Koreans that we are from the Ming Dynasty." Although the truth is a bit incredible, Wang Hai didn't care much. The Koreans are much more obedient than the Japanese. They are too late to respect themselves, such as Ming Dynasty merchants, so how could they offend them?

He only guessed half of the time. Some sailors in the fleet were able to speak Korean. After going forward and answering, they also found out the other party's identity. The ones occupying Fukue Island were indeed Koreans, and they were also the Youshui Camp of Jeolladao, which was the regular naval army of North Korea.

Listening to the sailor's retelling, Wang Hai seemed to be dreaming. The Korean navy said that in retaliation against the repeated invasions of the Japanese pirates, they launched this operation at the will of the king, and occupying Fukue Island was just the beginning, and the situation of the war could be further expanded.

Therefore, they asked merchant ships who came here to register their identities, destinations and itineraries to avoid collusion with the Japanese and making actions that are unfavorable to North Korea.

Wang Hai felt that this matter was so weird today, and the rabbit was still biting people when he was anxious. The North Koreans were not interested in revenge on Japan. However, if North Korea took advantage and refused to leave, it was unyielding to fight against Japan. This was strange.

"Big shopkeeper, do we want it..." A little uncomfortable with the strength of the North Koreans. The second shopkeeper on the boat looked fierce and whispered to Wang Hai with a murderous look on his face.

The sailors in their caravan are not good at dealing with this desperate business, and there are not many people who have lost money. There are many people who have killed people before boarding the boat, not to mention after boarding the boat, big fish eat small fish, this is the law in the sea.

The entire fleet has hundreds of sailors, which is no less than the Korean soldiers on the dock. The Koreans have always been famous for their weakness, so the second shopkeeper is a little impulsive to make a vote. If these Koreans are dealt with, they may be able to seek credit from the Matsuura Party and get more discounts.

"Don't be reckless!" Wang Hai grabbed the second shopkeeper who was trying out and shouted in a low voice: "There were more than 200 samurai on this island, but now there are no traces. It is probably defeated by the Koreans. There must be something strange here, so let's be careful and tell them that the fleet will go to Xiaguan Port and then to Jiecheng..."

"Ah? Let's not go to Nagasaki anymore?" The second shopkeeper was stunned.

Wang Hai shook his head, "No matter how the North Koreans occupy Fukue Island, the Matsuura Party will most likely not give up. If we go to Nagasaki, what should the Matsuura Party do if we want us to help? Take the others to see the Danei family first, and I will take people to stay here and find out the situation first."

"Then, let's follow the shopkeeper." The shopkeeper was a little unwilling, but he was convinced by Wang Hai, and finally obeyed the latter's orders, registered information such as the business name, voyage, cargo, and sailors at the dock, and was able to leave Fujiang Port.

"If the Da Nei family really goes to Luo, you can take the fleet to Jie Town. If not, stay in Xiaguan Port and wait until my news arrives before taking action." Before the fleet separated, Wang Hai was still reminding him.

"Ah? Is there anything else here..."

"It's better to be cautious. Anyway, I'll take people here to watch this time. Just wait until I believe it before taking action."

“Okay.”

...

"Brother Xie, aren't we going to rob them? Why don't we take advantage of their entry into Hong Kong? What's the use of just counting numbers? Who knows whether what they said is true or false?"

"Brother Jiang, you're so stupid. Their ships are full of goods now. We have to sell them after robbing them. How hard it is, let alone the things we are not familiar with are not so easy to deal with. Of course, it's better to wait for them to come back before taking action. As for registering those things, it's really useless now, but as long as regulations are formed, they will be of great use in the future."

Xie Hong smiled trepidly and said, "Besides, after we make trouble, we will release the news. Then, after the Japanese come, we will completely open our name. Just like on Jeju Island, this is called showing the enemy as weak."

"Oh, so that's it." Scarface suddenly realized.
