Chapter 144 The beginning of trade

The little boy with a face full of energy ran down the work overtime. Albero looked at the man down excitedly, "Is this?" Yi Shi pointed at the little boy with red hair.

"Juan, my name is Juan, and I am the entourage of Admiral Albero." Obviously this person seemed to speak some English, too.

In this way, the sailors on the ship walked off the ship one after another, "I really disturbed you." Albero said apologetically.

Yi Shi shook her head: "You can just not dislike the simplicity of this place. Nagoya is really shabby. It seems to be similar to those gypsies." She laughed at her helplessness slightly.

"Don't say that, people like you will definitely not live here forever." He stopped Yi's next words.

There were a lot of sailors on Garen's sailboat, about 60 people, and some people walked down with muskets, whining and making noise. It seemed that people from all countries even had Africans. "Sir." Jing gently pulled Yishi's hand: "Why are those people so weird? How come you speak this language."

"This." Obviously, Yi's words were frustrated. "I learned Chinese from Yiyuan Gong at that time. For example, the one who was a Ming country. As for those black people, they were Africans. I always showed you the globe that the fat man gave him last time. This one is Admiral Albero. If you come to our place, don't worry." He introduced it vaguely, and then he did not explain the others.

Soon he arrived in Nagoya, "Oh my God, is this where you live?" Albero looked surprised. The house was so simple that it could not be more simple. He obviously realized that he had said: "It's really a risk." Albero apologized with one hand in his chest.

"Haha, you don't need to do this. Most people in this place are like this. They only eat fish and not meat. This is Buddhism. You should know that it is like the Ming Dynasty. But I eat meat. You can come here and I can entertain you with meat, otherwise you can only eat radishes." Yishi began the introduction.

Albero nodded: "So that's the case, it seems that the world is still big."

"By the way, Albero, where have you been?"

"Yeah, Africa, India, Southeast Asia, and here I originally wanted to go to China." He scratched his head embarrassedly.

"Please ask" Yi Shi walked aside and moved some stools. Obviously, these foreigners were not used to sitting on the ground. The sailors ran out loudly, which scared the group of farmers who had never seen the world. "This, Admiral, please comfort your sailors." [31 Novel Network] Obviously, Yi Shi was stunned and forgot about this.

"June, take responsibility, I'll have a good talk with this Kiyoko-ling." Albero smiled.

At this time, Yi Shi was instructing Jing to prepare a dinner party. After all, these Portuguese cannot be asked to eat carrots. "Where is the Admiral Caribbean?"

"Caribbean, haha, that's the place where the Spanish are, how can we Portuguese go?" He looked helpless.

Yi nodded, obviously he forgot about this.

He stretched out, "I haven't been ashore for a long time. Although the sailor's health problems are still OK, they are still a little bit. By the way, I'll hire you as my translator." Albero suddenly thought of this question.

"Translation." Yi Shi was a little curious about this: "Sorry, I have my friends and I hope I will become the city lord." He quickly refused the invitation.

"City Lord, then you will have to take more attention in the future trade." Obviously, he was interested in commercial matters.

Yi Shi nodded: "It's a pity that the funds are insufficient now, but I have good investment projects here."

"Oh, tell me, I can be responsible for the funding, you are familiar with it here." Albero soon entered the role.

"So, so..." Yishi introduced the ceramic trade and wood trade, as well as overseas imported trade and gold trade.

"So you have so much gold here, I'm really here in the right place." Albero liked it more and more.

"You may not know that one pound of gold on the other side of the sea is equal to ten pounds of silver, and one pound is equal to four pounds of silver here, so the profit is still very large. However, the Ming Dynasty opened fewer ports, so this is a bit difficult. However, you can consider the suggestions I just gave you to do near-harbor trade here to lay the foundation for the future." Then Yishi took out a simple map of Japan, indicating that the Bian Port and Qingzhou, and it is an excellent commercial route to Odawara. You can consider it and point fingers on it.

"You are." Albero looked away and found the telescope in his bag.

Seeing this, Yishi pulled it out and handed it to him. Albero took it gently, but found the name of Dagama above, and then gently ***. "I don't know how you came from." He was still very curious about this origin.

"Yeah, the one given to me by Father Biella. This is from Admiral Da Gama. Portugal like you, you, admire him very much." This Da Gama is a Portuguese hero.

"Haha, Prince Enrique (Prince Henry), Admiral Dias, and Admiral Da Gama are all my idols. Do you sell me this telescope?" Obviously this person is very interested in this.

"I'll give this to you, it's just a telescope in my hands." Yishi politely refused the money transaction.

"Then thank you." Albero took the telescope with pleasure. It seemed that the foreigners did not have as many oriental people as they were. "Since you don't have a telescope, I will go to the captain's office to give you one. As for the others, I won't say much. I will make this friend." This person showed the spirit of a young man.

"So I." Yishi patted Albero on the shoulder.

The two chatted for a long time, and the dinner started. Because Nagoya was poor, Jing Bi and took Juan and others to the mountains to fight wild boars. The evening dinner was roasted wild boars, and the Portuguese brought rum (high concentration of 55-76 degrees) from the boat. As for the admiral, Juan asked Juan to bring a bottle of Porto wine (porter port, non-Bordeaux in France).
