"Swish~"

“Steel~”

A sharp sword was set on the mast of the pirate ship, and the arrows were still trembling and making noises.

"Hiss~"

Sterling couldn't help but take a breath as he watched the scene.

The arrow was shot very accurately. The key is that you can tell at a glance that the bow used is a strong bow, and the range is longer than that of ordinary muskets.

"We are not malicious, we just want to replenish fresh water and buy some food here. If we are willing to give us some rest, we will be grateful and we are willing to pay the money~"

Sterling came to the bow of the boat and shouted loudly in the Ming Dynasty who was not very skillful.

He is proficient in many languages ​​and is also learning the language and writing of the Ming Dynasty, in order to facilitate business with the Ming people.

The most profitable deal in Europe is undoubtedly to sell goods from the far east to European countries for sale, and then sell white slaves from European countries to Ming people.

Learning the language and writing of the Ming Dynasty is obviously very helpful for doing business.

Hearing Sterling's words, Huang Chong, Li Meng and others were also slightly stunned.

These pirates who looked ferocious actually said that they had no malice and just wanted to replenish tamsui and provide some supplies?

The genius believes in you.

"I don't care what your purpose is~"

"What I want to tell you is that this is an overseas colony belonging to the Ming Empire. We are citizens of the Ming Empire and the people of the Ming Emperor. If you want to seize our Golden Island, we are happy to accompany you to the end."

Huang Chong took his bow and arrow and looked coldly at the group of pirates giving a warning.

"We know that this is a colony belonging to the Ming Empire, and we have no intention of harming any affairs here."

"We just want to replenish freshwater here in your place, buy some food, and rest on the island for a day. We are willing to pay the money, and we will give it to you now."

Sterling looked at the Ming people in front of him.

Although there were only a dozen people, they were tall, strong and powerful, wearing excellent armor, carrying muskets, holding bows and arrows, with swords and swords around their waists, and even everyone was equipped with a horse.

This is simply armed to the teeth.

What's more important is that the momentum exudes from these dozen people is very confident and proud. Although there are more than a dozen people, it gives people the feeling that they have to face thousands of troops.

This is the Ming soldiers.

Confident and powerful, traversing all over the world and sweeping across the world, the Ottoman Empire needed the whole of Europe to unite to deal with it. The Ming Empire was close to the 200,000 army and had to cede land and beg for mercy.

Sterling waved his hand and soon a few pirates came to Huang Chong, Li Meng and others on a small boat with a large box of silver coins. They opened the box and revealed the Ming silver coins filled with them, with at least tens of thousands.

"Check it out~"

Huang Chong nodded to Li Meng beside him and said.

“Yes~”

Li Meng hurriedly saluted and replied, quickly checking the silver coins in the box and confirming that there was no problem. It was a silver coins made by the First Bank of the Ming Dynasty. It is now not only circulating in various parts of the Ming Dynasty, but also becoming a common currency around the world with the footsteps of the Ming people.

With its excellent quality, high silver content, exquisite casting, and difficult to imitate, it has become the most popular currency in countries around the world.

Even the bank notes issued by the Ming First Bank have become popular in countries around the world. After all, it is not very convenient to carry silver coins in many cases, and it is much more convenient to carry silver notes.

"No problem, the amount is more than 10,000 taels of silver. These pirates are really rich. They can cost tens of thousands of taels of silver at one's own move, just to replenish fresh water and food."

After Li Meng finished checking, he licked his tongue slightly and said.

The silver came too quickly, just allowing the other party to replenish fresh water and sell some food to the other party, and they could get tens of thousands of taels of silver at once.

You should know that tens of thousands of taels of silver are definitely not a small amount, and its purchasing power is amazing.

"What do you say?"

Huang Chong looked at the silver in the box, then looked at the pirates who were waiting on the boat, and asked the people around him.

"It's a bastard who doesn't make money, not to mention that it's just a supplementary freshwater and sells some food to them, it's not a big deal."

"Our family has moved to the mountains. When the time comes, we will tell them that they will only allow them to move around the harbor and easily make tens of thousands of taels of silver. Where can I find such good things?"

Li Meng replied immediately.

"Yes, tens of thousands of taels of silver~"

"It's enough for us to buy a lot of cement. At that time, we can repair this port and replace these houses with steel and cement."

"Yes, yes, we need this money now."

"Which gold mine output is pretty good, it's too slow to mine. We need money to build it now."

"Yes, there are so many places to use money now."

"The port needs to be built, and the houses need to be built. At that time, a road to the gold mine will be built. All of these will cost money. We don't have enough manpower, so we may have to buy some slaves in the future."

"Just make up for them. We don't allow them to bring weapons, and be more careful."

"What are you afraid of? We are from the Ming Dynasty, and Liang and others dare not act here."

The others replied in a verbal way.

Sabre Colonial Business really needs this money now.

They were born too ordinary and did not have huge financial support behind them. They were close to the income they received when they joined the army. Although they occupied the hen that laid golden eggs, the hen that lays golden eggs, the amount of money they needed to truly develop the island well.

Not to mention anything else, it is just basic, just build the port and build a decent house.

This is the equator, with a tropical rainforest climate, with a lot of precipitation throughout the year, and the earthen brick and tile houses cannot withstand the erosion of the rain here. Even though they guard the Jindao, they live in wooden houses. It rains heavily outside and lightly inside.

This made these retired soldiers who were used to living in cement steel houses worried and wanted to build cement steel houses for a long time, but they had never had money, so they naturally couldn't afford it.

"Okay, that's it~"

"Just let them replenish fresh water here and sell them some food."

"We'll be more careful these two days."

Seeing that everyone's opinions were almost the same, Huang Chong nodded after thinking about it.

Then he ordered someone to put the money away and said to Sterling: "You have no problem resting here, but you can't bring your weapons~"

"There are also people who can only move around the harbor. If you dare to go deeper into other parts of the island, don't blame us for being polite!"

“Haha~”

"Thank you, thank you!"

Sterling received the reply and immediately laughed happily.

Sure enough, having money is easy to do, and the Ming people also love money.

Give a box of silver, you can rest here and replenish fresh water and food. It will be much more convenient to hide from Spain at that time.

The pirates all put down their weapons and climbed onto the island excitedly. Some were impatient to take a shower in the river next to them.

Some people just find a cool place and lie down and sleep soundly. It's so tired.

As for Sterling, he brought a few people to Huang Chong with a smile on his face, preparing to establish a good relationship with the Ming people in front of him, talk about life, and see if there is a possibility of further cooperation.

"My name is Stirling, and I'm a pirate. Well, in your Ming Dynasty, it's called Hunlu Forest."

Sterling introduced himself to Huang Chong, and his speech was also very humorous, and Daming said it was pretty good.

"Don't you invite me some wine?"

"You Ming people don't say that you have friends coming from afar, what's going on~"

"It's a pleasure for friends to come from afar!"

"Mr. Sterling, please~"

Huang Chong looked at Sterling and others. Since the other party had no harm to his Jindao, there was no need to treat them with bad faces. He ordered people to set up a table, serve good wine and treat them with good food.

After some politeness, I spent three rounds of wine and five flavors of food.

Sterling and others also enjoyed their food and were a little drunk. Sterling also said: "Mr. Huang, it's better for you Ming people. There is a powerful empire behind it, and no one dares to provoke you."

"It's different like us. They are all poor and can't even eat enough at home. They have no choice but to embark on the road of pirates."

Obviously, he is sympathizing. In the words of the Ming Green Forest, we are good people, but we are forced to go on this path.

"That is, Mr. Huang, you didn't look down on us. You look down on us brothers. You treat us as friends, treat us with good wine and meat, and are willing to help us. We are really grateful."

"Come here, bring another box of gold, silver and jewelry to give it to the brothers of Daming."

Sterling seemed to be a little guilty and said nonsense. As his words fell, someone soon carried a large box over and opened it, and it was covered with gold, silver and jewelry.

"This, this cannot be used~"

Huang Chong couldn't understand this Sterling anymore. He was obviously a pirate in Europe, but why did he feel like a Green Forest hero?

"If you think I'm a friend, you'll accept this thing."

"I can also see that you have been here not long ago. They are almost like us, and they are all poor people. The pier here is not like a pier, and the houses are not like a house, and they are completely different from some of the Ming colonies I have been to."

"Like that Hong Kong is very prosperous, with tall buildings and bustling ports."

"I know you need money, brothers, but I don't have anything else. This is a business that is unsubstantiable. There are some pickled things, as long as they can help you, it's worth it."

Sterling seemed to be very drunk, but the Ming Dynasty said it very well and had a deep understanding of the Ming Dynasty's culture. If you don't look at his appearance, you will definitely think that he is from the Qinglin area.

When Huang Chong, Li Meng and others heard these words, they all felt that Sterling and others were really friends. They were just entertaining them for a meal of wine and food. They were so righteous and sent a box of gold, silver and treasures.

"Okay, you friend, I, Huang Chong, have settled it!"

After hearing this, Huang Chong took up the big porcelain bowl with a bold gaze and finished drinking it in one sip.

“Haha, it’s refreshing~”

Sterling was even happier, and he picked up the wine and sipped it.

"It's really a thousand cups of wine for friends, come and drink~"
