Chen Mu stared at not only Ishimi Yinshan and Kyushu Island, but also Lin Afeng's old friend Tokugawa Ieyasu.

In fact, they are not old friends. Lin Feng had never met Tokugawa Ieyasu at all, but this did not delay their connection. Tokugawa once purchased a large number of whisk-made oxtails through merchants to make Tangtou.

But this connection is enough. Chen Mu needs a channel to get to the three heroes of the Warring States Period, and trade is a good weapon. Chen Mu set a small goal for Lin Afeng - first find a way to make the poor people in Sanhe rich.

"Selling silk, porcelain, oxtails, cotton cloth of various colors, four treasures of the study, spices, carvings, Yongle Tongbao."

"Buy wood, gold, silver, copper, iron, sulfur, salt, oil, salt, and pickles."

"This kind of trade is not necessarily just done with Tokugawa, but also with other messy daimyos. It can be done with anyone, and there is no other requirement." Chen Mu raised a few fingers and said, "You can't sell iron tools, you can't sell military armor, you can't sell books, you can't sell gunpowder, you can't buy military armor, you can't buy military armor, you can't buy all the raw materials you need in your life."

"The above is a violation of ban. The violation of bans first committing a beheading, which will cause harm to the clan. Do you understand?"

In front of Chen Mu, not only Lin Feng, but also the merchants who were summoned to Macheng. Everyone was confused when they heard this. The rich merchant Shi Xiaolou asked carefully: "Shishang Chen, is Luzon famine?"

"No, I just need these things, at a fair price, but you exchange silver for copper coins and buy grain, vegetables and other goods there. You still have to make money when you come back." Chen Mu spread his hands and said, "If you are willing to do this business, I will send a wooden sign on the bow of the ship and allow the ship to go to Japan. If you dock on the coast and get expelled from the navy, you can only sell it to Luzon."

Most big businessmen will feel that there is something tricky about it and are not willing to participate in this business. However, the small businessmen below do not care about that, as long as they can make money, they are willing to do it. They have a lot of money in their hearts, and they all actively report their names and ask Chen Mu for the boat license plate.

Finally, Chen Mu ordered nine spring merchants and Guangshangs, and after shutting down others, he said to them: "You are looking for the Japanese to find out the composition of their power, go to one place, establish good relations with the local princes, collect information from various princes, and fight against enemies and friends. If necessary, you can send someone to Macheng for some weapons, but this is the capital to save your life, don't tell others."

"The amount of armour you purchase in times of crisis depends on how much food and gold and silver you can transport from Japan to Luzon. There will be a special person to register in Horse City. There are no cannons in the armour, but there are guns, spears, fuses, bird guns, which are enough to change the situation of war, and it is also the capital for you to be rich there."

Chen Mu's expression was solemn, and he bowed to the small merchants, scaring them to the point of falling down, saying, "I hope you can make money every day and use your talents to prosper business there!"

These people are really small sea merchants, they all have only one boat, and they may not be big guys like Dafu.

For them, this road is really a life-long journey, but the sea trade route has always been a life-long journey, even in the past Manila trade route.

This situation was not until Chen Mu established Fujian and Guanghe Xingsheng and integrated pirates such as Lin Afeng, and the man-made disasters on the trade routes near the sea were peaceful, but even if man-made disasters were peaceful, there were natural disasters. Moreover, after Chen Mu took over Luzon, the big money on the trade route was gone.

They all joined the trade route after Chen Mu took Luzon. At this time, they saw the opportunity in Japan, and they were both excited and uneasy, and their future was uncertain.

If you are lucky, they will be able to form a fleet of several ships to go to sea next time when they return to Luzon; if you are not lucky, they may not be able to come back.

But who can tell this correctly?

The merchants left with great anxiety. Xu Wei stepped forward and said to Chen Mu, "If this could be done, would Chen Shuai say that he was weakening them or making them more fierce?"

"I don't know, but I will definitely be poorer."

Chen Mu rubbed his cheeks. He forced himself to pretend to be righteous for a long time, his stomach was about to cramp, and he raised his hand and said, "This kind of loss-making business can only be done this time. If you do too much, you should be addicted!"

For him, not making a big profit is losing money.

But the few merchants sent out this time were indeed impossible to make a big profit. They only earn a good amount of money by purchasing grain at a moderate price, not to mention that this will definitely cause prices to rise. They will lose money one day, and even fail to make ends meet after a longer period of time.

But Chen Mu wanted to give it a try.

In the dark Nanyang Yamen Fort cell, the prison guard walked to the bottom with a sumptuous food box. The dishes in the food box were different from usual, and he even prepared a pot of old wine. This thing is a rare thing for the Macheng Flag Army, so don't mention the prison guards' feeling very awkward.

I could only mutter the silence of the meal over and over again, and then I slightly calmed down my mind and sent it to Salcedo in the cell.

The lack of sunlight for several months made Salcedo look much pale, his physical condition was extremely poor, and his spirit was extremely declining. His loose hair and his dirty prison clothes looked like they were more embarrassed.

He no longer knew how many times he had cursed, and cursed that the prison cell built by the Spaniards was used to detain the Spaniards!

The iron lock of the prison door was opened, and the sound of the Ming samurai officer's boots stepping on the wet cell ground made the disheveled Salcedo raise his head. In the light of the torch, he saw Chen Mu surrounded by warriors with armor-padded armor.

The face that should belong to the demon had an evil smile, spread his hands to him, and said, "Have you eaten? Are you happy, you are going to be free again."

Salcedo raised his head and looked straight at Chen Mu. The Western officer showed a rare uneasiness on his face, as if he was waiting for the following text. The light looked even more lonely through the prison door.

"That's right, Regasby on Cebu Island was defeated. Is he your grandpa or grandma... Forget it, you all call him grandpa." Someone from Chen Mu set up a chair for him, and he sat down and said, "Don't worry, when the castle on Cebu Island was captured, Regasby had already escaped, and my people searched for the island but didn't catch him."

"He may have fled to Borneo or somewhere, and now it's your turn to fulfill his mission. I found a Portuguese merchant ship, and he would send you and my people to Spain, meet your king, with my request--seven million taels of silver or equivalent goods, I know your king may not necessarily agree, he has only three choices."

"He can get the opportunity to trade in Luzon by signing a treaty, pay it in one go or in batches; or he will continue to collect debts with armed forces, and he will become busier and busier; or he will be sent to your large fleet next year to defeat me, and I will wait."

Chen Mu picked up two brave and brave flag soldiers to accompany him. At the port, Salcedo changed into new clothes and boarded the small boat of Portuguese merchants. He watched the captain take off his hat and pay tribute to Chen Mu on the shore, and watched as he gradually drifted away from the land.

What made him feel most mixed with emotion was the huge cannon boats with various oriental gods swaying in the bay.

On the borrowed book of the ship, Salcedo wrote this with a quill pen against the side of the ship.
