In the digital classroom on the 28th floor, Zheng Fusong followed the teacher in the video and studied mathematics for an afternoon.
Mastered the knowledge points on how to solve three-dimensional quadratic equations, as well as some geometric knowledge.
The learning progress is probably to the second grade of junior high school.
Zheng Fusong is only 11 years old now. In just two years since he came to Harbor City, he has mastered all the knowledge points in elementary school and started to advance to junior high school. He also learns very fast. Maybe it won’t be long before he has all the knowledge in the entire junior high school stage.
Also learned.
To describe him as a genius is no exaggeration.
And he learned most of the knowledge points by watching video tutorials. A certain "good teacher" who accepted him as his apprentice rarely provided him with guidance. He only occasionally found some historical information videos to give him an ideological lesson.
, instilling some thoughts of being proactive and persuading people with virtue, and explaining some classic quotations of Confucius, which made Zheng Fusong stunned. He felt that the Confucius mentioned by the teacher should be terrifying, right?
But for some reason, Zheng Fusong felt that what the teacher taught was very reasonable and more in line with common sense.
He shook his head again and again.
It was over, he felt like he was about to be led astray.
Even if the teachings were a bit misleading, Zheng Fusong also found that he had become a coolie. The teacher had no time to tutor his children, so four-year-old Xu Jiaguang, two-year-old Xu Jiayao, and several younger brothers and sisters
, their homework needs the help of primary school bully Zheng Fusong, and occasionally he has to change their diapers, make milk, and feed them... It seems that they have become a half-nanny to help take care of the children.
Over time.
Zheng Fusong felt troubled in his heart. He felt that this was different from what he imagined. I came here to study. Why should I serve so many little emperors and princesses?
Even if the style of painting is a bit strange.
Even though I often feel dizzy and speechless.
Zheng Fusong still likes this place very much and thinks it is much better than Hirado, Japan, and his hometown in Anping, Fujian.
Because there are not too many rules and regulations, and there are no such and such rules and restrictions, you can even speak and do things more freely, without having to worry about this or not.
Even my mother, Mr. Tagawa, who has always been cautious and accustomed to submissiveness, also likes this place very much, and has become very close friends with the two Ono masters. They often sit together and play horse hanging, talking about everything, and they have become a lot more cheerful.
.
However, recently, Zheng Fusong discovered that something was not right with his mother.
Suddenly I stopped going to horse racing.
His expression became anxious and melancholy.
Loss of appetite and lost a lot of weight.
But in front of him, he still forced a smile, just like before, not wanting to affect his study.
But how could these cover-ups hide it from his extremely keen vision?
This day.
Zheng Fusong, who had finished class earlier than usual, walked to the door of his mother's room and heard the sound of crying coming from inside.
He took out the key, opened the door slightly, and got in. After being noticed by the maid, he made a silent gesture to her. When he walked to the bedside, he found that his mother was crying, her eyes were red and swollen, and the pillow towel was wet.
For most of the meal, he kept mumbling: "My son, poor my son~"
"Mom, what happened?"
At this time, Zheng Fusong had to ask: "Did something happen to my brother?"
"Fu'er, have you finished class? Are you hungry? What do you want for dinner? I'll make it for you."
Tagawamatsu quickly wiped his tears, forced a smile, and acted like there was nothing wrong with him.
"Mom, I'm almost twelve years old. I'm almost an adult. Can you stop treating me like a child? If you have any questions, you can tell me. You cry so haggardly. Besides being worried, how can I pretend?
Why don't you eat without any trouble? Please tell me."
Zheng Fusong held his mother's hand and said helplessly.
Seeing his eldest son's serious face and his determination to understand the situation, Tagawa Song couldn't keep pretending that nothing was wrong. Tears fell again and he held Zheng Fusong in his arms.
crying bitterly.
Finally, with Zheng Fusong's repeated comfort and questioning, and the confession of Xiangzi, the maid next to him, the cause and effect of everything was finally understood.
Something happened to the younger brother Tagawa Nanaemon who was still in Hirado, Japan.
Currently, he does not live in the home of his maternal grandfather Yuhuang Tagawa. Instead, he was forcibly abducted by troops sent by the Matsura clan of the Hirado domain and brought to Hirado Castle as a guest, thus losing his personal freedom.
It is said that Tagawa Nanzaemon is only a nine-year-old child. Why did the Matsuura family kidnap such a child?
Naturally, he wanted to use this child as a bargaining chip to force the Zheng family in Fujian to make compromises, offer benefits, and get a piece of the Zheng family's pie.
You must know that Japan has not yet entered the stage of isolation, and the exchange of information with the outside world is still very smooth. Especially after Xujiazhuang's "Oriental Times" came out, the whole of Japan attached great importance to it, whether it was the Tokugawa shogunate, the emperor or the lords of various places.
, they all tried their best to get a copy, and there were even businessmen who specially recycled old issues of "Oriental Times" and sold them to Japan for ten silver dollars or hundreds of silver dollars a copy. They sold out every time, and the price became more recent.
The higher.
This resulted in Japan, at least the upper-class elites, being very familiar with the internal situation of the Ming Dynasty, and also very familiar with Xujiazhuang's every move.
Hirado is located at the western end of Kyushu Island, closest to the Ming Dynasty, and can get news the fastest. It even took five to seven days for the latest issue of the "Oriental Times" to be released, and the Matsuura clan of the Hirado domain could quickly read it. In addition, the Japanese used
are also Chinese characters, so I can understand them without any problem, so I can quickly obtain information, one step faster than anyone in Japan.
Naturally, the Matsuura family knew clearly about Xu Jiazhuang's large-scale colonization of Southeast Asia and achieved huge harvests, and they were greedy and jealous.
It’s just that Xujiazhuang is too powerful. The Xujiazhuang squadron stationed at Ba Port on Jeju Island is only a few hundred miles away from Hirado. It can arrive within a day and has the ability to raze Hirado to the ground in minutes. How dare the Matsuura clan attack Xujiazhuang?
of attention.
However, the Zheng family in Fujian was much weaker than the Xu family, and during this colonization of Southeast Asia, the Zheng family, which worked closely with the Xu family, also established sugar cane estates, with hundreds of grain estates, and their mouths were full of food, which was really enviable.
It happened that Tagawa Shichizaemon, the second son of Fujian Zheng Zhilong, was in Hirado and was in the hands of the Matsuura family.
In this case, is it okay to cooperate with Zheng Zhilong and ask for more than a dozen overseas manors and hand them over to the Matsuura family for development? Isn't it too much to take them with them to have some soup?
Zheng Zhilong just nodded to these requests, but out of caution, he still asked Xu Jiazhuang's opinion and asked whether he should agree to the Matsuura family's cooperation request?
"No, I absolutely cannot agree!"
Xu Yuan personally responded: "The Matsuura family can hire some Japanese laborers to work in the Zheng family manor, but if they want to become the owner of the manor, they can't do it. They can't even give them one!"
Zheng Zhilong expressed his understanding, and then asked someone to reply to the Matsuura family, rejecting their request for a share of the pie and only allowing Japanese workers to be sent over to work.
Furious.
The Matsuura family was immediately furious. They first sent samurai to the Tagawa Yu royal family and forcibly abducted the nine-year-old Tagawa Shichizaemon and brought him to the feudal government as a guest. Then he sent a letter to Zheng Zhilong in Fujian, saying that your noble son was a guest at the Matsuura family.
, but life is quite poor, please send me 100,000 silver dollars for living expenses.
Faced with this blackmail, Zheng Zhilong quickly sent someone to deliver 100,000 silver dollars and demanded that Tagawa Nanzaemon be immediately released and sent to his grandfather's home.
But how could the Matsuura family, who had succeeded in blackmailing, let Tagawa Nanzaemon go? Less than half a month later, they sent someone to send a letter to Zheng Zhilong, saying that the 100,000 silver dollars had been spent, and they would send another 500,000 - Tagawa Nanchi
Zaemon's living expenses are 100,000 silver dollars per month, and will be paid in installments once or twice a year, totaling 1.2 million silver dollars, not a penny less.
Zheng Zhilong was so angry that he could not compromise and send money, so he came up with the idea of sending a fleet to rescue his son.
It's just that the Zheng family's fleet is now scattered in the Southeast Asia and is colonizing everywhere, and it is impossible to call it back in a short time.
The second is to really send a fleet to attack the Hirado Domain. If the Matsuura family breaks up with each other, won't the purpose of sending the fleet be lost?
Finally, Zheng Zhilong sent someone to give a tough reply: Living expenses will no longer be provided, but if something happens to Tagawa Nanaemon, Zheng Zhilong will lead a hundred battleships to destroy Hirado and kill all the Matsuura family members. Don't do anything like this.
Unwise move!
Faced with such a warning, and thinking of the current strength of the Zheng family in Fujian, the Matsuura family naturally did not dare to take any action to quarrel, but the child Tagawa Shichizaemon immediately fell into a miserable situation.
The only food available was rice balls with a sour taste.
I was assigned a job that I had to do.
Often suffered abuse.
What is even more outrageous is that the Matsuura family also asked people to help write letters to record the tragic situation of Tagawa Nanzaemon, and then sent them to Zheng Zhilong in Fujian for reading.
Zheng Zhilong only read two of these letters and didn't read them. Then they fell into the hands of Tagawa Song. As a mother, seeing her son being so abused, she was naturally heartbroken and shed tears day and night. Her eyes were almost blind from crying.
He also begged her husband Zheng Zhilong many times to send some money quickly or think of other ways, but Zheng Zhilong remained unmoved. He was just convinced that the Matsuura family did not dare to quarrel and that nothing big would happen to Tagawa Shichizaemon.
This makes Tagawamatsu feel desperate, and the number of letters received from Hirado has decreased significantly recently. In today's letter, there is only a bloody fingerprint, which makes Tagawamatsu even more depressed. If this continues, she may really
I can't bear it anymore.
"You bastards, damn the Matsuura family! I will never let you go!"
After understanding the whole situation.
Zheng Fusong's eyes were about to burst, and he clenched his fists so tightly that his nails almost dug into his flesh, and his knuckles were so clenched that they turned white.
He gritted his teeth and said to his mother Tagawa Matsu: "Mom, leave this matter to me. Father is indifferent. Then I, the older brother, will take responsibility and no matter what the price, I will definitely rescue my younger brother!"
Then he picked up the letter with only the bloody handprint, turned around and left the room, walking faster and faster.
"My son, where are you going?"
Tagawa Song had no choice but to follow her. Her younger son was suffering. What stupid thing would her eldest son do? This chapter has been completed!
