That night, Zhang Xuwen and Li Pingyi came to the Shizhai area built by Yan Siqi and others. It was indeed a large village, which was very messy, extending from the inner 6 to the beach. There was a big river next to the Shizhai, which was very convenient to divert water.

The Ten Villages are not only Yan Siqi's territory, but also Li Dan's manpower, at least nearly half of them are Li Dan's manpower, ships, manpowers, warehouses, and a large amount of wealth is stored inside.

Li Dan is an old man and knows that wealth cannot be revealed. He dares not put all his wealth in the high house, but keeps a considerable amount of wealth in Taiwan.

"That piece of inventory," Li Pingzhi pointed to a large area of ​​black houses and said, "It should be where Li Dan put things. Zhang Xuwen pondered: "There may be hundreds of thousands of gold and silver or even millions of gold and silver, and the rest of the items are worth at least hundreds of thousands of yuan."

Li Pingzhi looked at Zhang Xuwen and suddenly said, "This silver cannot be taken like this."

"That's right." Zhang Xuwen said: "If it's easy to take it, Chang Zhengshi would not be a good man and a trustworthy man. He burned hundreds of thousands of goods in the grassland, which cut off the Mongolians' thoughts. If there was a slight possibility, he would have taken these goods long ago."

"In terms of force, Yan Siqi is definitely not an opponent, so what are you concerned about?"

"It should be a concern for Hirado's allies. Before Li Dan died, we will make up for his inheritance and fight against his allies. What does Li Guosuke think? If we really do this, not only will we say that the trade in Japan be ruined in the future, but Li Guosuke will be completely pushed to the Dutch. For this money, it is definitely not worth it."

"But Yan Siqi doesn't go, we can't get manpower, and the stupid port is still mixed with fish and dragons, and we can't let go."

"And the Dutch people are always hidden tragedies..."

"Damn it, Taiwan is really difficult to deal with."

"No wonder it's not surprising that it has not improved so much. It's really difficult. A ship costs more than 100,000 yuan, and the military department has spent more than one million yuan. It's enough to raise several regiments in Datong to build several ships? It's rare to have the current scale."

"There are soldiers here but they can't be used. There is no power at the sea. I don't dare to turn against the red-haired at all!"

The two young people talked faster and faster. Although they had only had a superficial understanding of Taiwan before, they had already thought about the important points in the embarrassing situation in Taiwan all the way through Zheng Zhilong's tutoring and seeing it with their own eyes.

"If it is to solve Yan Siqi..." Li Pingzhi thought, "The vast ocean has endless business opportunities. You may not be the only businessman and earn money from serious trade. It is no exaggeration to say that it is really a lot of gold and silver in the valley. It is a hundred times easier to make money than our Datong area. Those old hats in Zhangjiakou took advantage of the market and thought they were a golden land, but they didn't know that it was a far worse place than here."

“That’s right.”

The two were talking lively, and they didn't feel that there was one more person around them. It was not until someone touched each other that they suddenly turned around together.

"Change political affairs?"

The two young men spoke in unison, amusing Chang Wei.

"You two are really rare talents."

"Chang Zhengshi has been awarded too much."

Chang Wei frowned and said, "Brother Xu Wen, don't be so polite, okay? You and my elder brother are cousins, and I and I are cousins. Let's not take this set of rules in the officialdom in private!"

"And you!" Chang Wei looked at Li Pingzhi and said with a sharp look: "I know the Military Command wants you to go back, but I think you are more useful here. Stay here and be sure to be the chief of the Military Command in three months!"

"Dare not obeying!" Li Pingzhi had almost no hesitation, nor had any intention of modesty, and immediately agreed.

Chang Wei looked at him, then looked at Zhang Xuwen, and suddenly burst into laughter.

Zhang Xuwen also looked at the two of them and said meaningfully: "You two are really good at the taste."

Li Pingzhi commented: "For the three of us, we should be able to quickly turn the situation around and save the general trend of Taiwan."

Regarding this, the other two young people felt similar, so they nodded together.

Although Chang Wei is about the same age as them, Zhang Xuwen is actually the oldest. Li Pingzhi is less than 20 years old, and Chang Wei is about the same age. However, the three of them are all elite figures of this era. Chang Wei was born into a giant business family, and the Chang family is also a famous wealthy business family. Chang Wei and his father Chang Jin have traveled all over the country since childhood, and they are also knowledgeable. The merchant family has taught how to deal with the world and people's hearts since childhood. Therefore, when Chang Wei first arrived in Xinpingbao, he was able to help Zhang Han. In the past two years, he has been in charge of the overall situation in Taiwan. Although he is young, his life experience is much more than that of a hundred-year-old farmer.

Zhang Xuwen grew up in the Zhang family in Puzhou since childhood. The education of such a large family is not comparable to that of poor scholars who study hard. His knowledge and vision were originally good. He became a scholar at the age of fifteen and had a very smart mind. After a year and a half of his mission to Russia, he even honed this piece of uncensored jade.

Li Pingzhi is the best in Xinpingbao School education. He can even pierce the awl-like figure in his pocket. It is normal for these three people to do things together, but it is not normal for them to do things if they can't do it!

...

Yan Siqi suddenly felt his right eyelid twitching.

He was upset and looked at the wine and food in front of him. With a wave of his right hand, the wine and food fell all over the floor.

"What's wrong with Brother Yan?" Yan Siqi's deputy was Chen Zhongji, who was famous for his wisdom and versatility. When he failed in Hirato, he suggested that Chen Zhongji go to Taiwan to conduct exhibitions. After arriving at Bengang, he felt that the terrain of the sea outlet was flat, the surrounding mountain people were not strong, and the land was plump and beautiful, and there were many beasts suitable for military farming exhibitions. So after obtaining Li Dan's consent, Yan Siqi and others started here with thirteen large ships, recruiting more than 3,000 immigrants to establish villages and reclamation here.

The ten villages are in a tic-tac shape, with a large platform worth more than ten meters high in the middle, which is suitable for looking at the sea and the enemy situation on the 6th, and is also convenient for commanding the people in the village to do things.

With the call of Yan Siqi's personal charm and ability, the foundation here has been gradually opened up. Li Dan recognized Yan Siqi's efforts. In addition to the cooperation with Heyusheng in the past two years, Li Dan transported thousands of people from Hirado and Fujian. With the addition of many forces, the number of Taiwanese civil sailors stationed in maritime businessmen has finally exceeded 10,000.

In the eyes of many people, this is already a considerable foundation.

"To be honest..." Yan Siqi thought for a while and said, "Mr. Li is in poor health. I am here in Dongfan to help him manage the family business. He has a lot of wealth here. His strong subordinates and ships also have many stationed in Bengang. I was wondering, what should I do if Mr. Li dies?"

"This is the opportunity for Brother Yan to be independent!" Chen Zhongji almost shouted. After hearing Yan Siqi's words, he immediately shouted: "This is a god-given opportunity. If Master Li is safe and sound, I would not advise Brother Yan to think about those who have nothing. Although the brothers are obedient to us now, it is mostly because Master Li's prestige, and our own brothers are still too small. But if Master Li dies, these brothers have been obedient to us over the years. Once Master Li goes, will they go to Hirado to listen to the eldest son?"

"As soon as the old master left, he abandoned the new master and became independent. I was worried that people would say we."

"If you have a mouth on others, can we forbid people from speaking?" Chen Zhongji said seriously: "If you are afraid of others, you can't do things. How many heroes are afraid of others' words these days? Liu Xiang was also in Hirado at the time. Master Li was welcomed by Master Li, but he was not independent when he arrived in Guangzhou?"

Yan Siqi's face gradually changed color, and he felt that what Chen Zhongji said made sense!

It doesn't matter whether it was me who thought so, or whether Chen Zhongji convinced him.

"What should we do?"

"A person has been sent to Hirado." Chen Zhongji said calmly: "When there is news, it will be rewarded."

"We are here, He Yusheng's power has also become stronger." Yan Siqi said: "Zheng Yiguan and the others have also come back today and have not come to see me. Will there be any changes?"

"They?" Chen Zhongji looked contemptuous: "It was just to please Mr. Li, and the eldest son admired Zhang Han, so he gave this place money. But their iron tools are really good. Even if we gain momentum in the future, we will do the iron tools. If they shouldn't think about it, how many days do these northern talents come to the sea? Is it possible for them to play on the sea?"

"That's true." Yan Siqi said seriously: "If I really gain power, I would like to share the honor and disgrace with Brother Chen."

"Brother Yan must not find an official in the past few days." Chen Zhongji smiled slightly and said, "You can't mess up the big things at this time."

Yan Siqi blushed. Everyone knew that he was a manly man. He always had a good impression of Zheng Yiguan, a handsome young man. When he was in a high place, Zheng Yiguan was adopted by Li Dan as his adopted son. Yan Siqi also helped to say a car of good things at that time.

If history had not been forked, it would have been that Yan Siqi had run to Taiwan and Zheng Zhilong and others came to meet. The famous pirate party of Shibazhi was officially established. Then Zheng Yiguan took office as Yan Siqi's male favorite and embezzled Li Dan's legacy, including Fucai, the fleet and sailors, and suddenly became a powerful man. Li Guozhu was of course dissatisfied and joined forces with Xu Xinsu to fight Zheng Zhilong. As a result, they were defeated by Zheng Zhilong. Xu Xinsu was killed. Yu Zigao failed in the battle to lead the children of Fujian to attack Zheng Zhilong, and suffered heavy losses. Later, he was asked by the court to behead him. Zheng Zhilong became the king of Fujian and the last maid merchant.

It was Chen Zhongji who was reminded at this time. Yan Siqi pressed his strange thoughts and said seriously: "Our ambition is this sea and a wealth of wealth. How could I ruin a big thing at this time!"

...

The room was full of medicine fragrance, and Li Guozhu half-kneeled on the ground and boiled medicine for his father himself.

Li Dan went to Taiwan once last year. Because of the Dutch incident, he arrived in Penghu again. Later, the mediation failed and he returned to Hirado from the sea.

After all, he is an elderly person in poor health. Li Dan became ill shortly after returning to Hirado.

It’s not a disease, it may be some geriatric diseases. In this era, I can’t find anything. The doctor simply said that Li Dan was a loss and could only use some warm and supplementary prescriptions to boil some medicines. These medicines are worse than placebos. Li Dan is a great hero at sea. I don’t know how many life and death things he has seen in this life, so he was very calm. If it weren’t for Li Guozhu’s filial piety and boiling medicine himself, he wouldn’t have drunk these bitter and useless black soup at all.
