Daming Junior Scholar

Merlot Godinghuo was able to come here from Europe all the way, so he naturally has many advanced technologies, but he doesn't want to transfer these technologies to this seemingly honest, but actually cunning Ming Dynasty man, if he finds out How about sailing across the sea, wouldn't he be able to go to Europe, then he would still make a lot of money.

He Jiaan didn't have much interest in casually talking about a few small technologies, and when he saw that Merlot Godinho was about to board the ship, He Jiaan suddenly pointed in the direction of the fleet and asked, "Is the artillery for sale? "

"Eh?" Melo Godinho was taken aback for a moment, hesitated for a moment, and then simply asked: "My friend, do you want a cannon, or do you want the craft of making it?"

"How do you sell a cannon, and how do you sell the craft of making it?" He Jiaan inquired with a curious look on his face.

With the transaction just now, Melo Godinho's mind suddenly became more active. He is not stupid, how could he not know that the craftsmanship of this cannon is top secret, and even he himself doesn't know how this cannon is cast out.

But not knowing doesn't mean that I can't sell it. A mirror can be sold for 50 taels, so I have to ask for a sky-high price for this gun.

After thinking about it for a while, Melo Godinho stretched out a finger and said, "A cannon costs 1 taels, and the craftsmanship of the cannon... 1000 million taels."

Good guy, this is really a lion's mouth. If a cannon is worth 1 taels, then I will really make a fortune. Why don't you open a shipping company? Go back and tell the emperor, just sell the cannon .

He Jiaan shook his head with a smile: "It's too expensive, I can't afford it."

"If you buy guns, it can be cheaper." Melo Godinho made up his mind, wanting to turn this business into a long-term business, and he can give up the price of the guns, but the shells and gunpowder But he couldn't give in for a tael of silver. When he bought the cannon back, he was destined to buy shells and gunpowder. He only needed to earn this silver to make a fortune.

Melo Godinho had a good plan in mind, but He Jiaan didn't intend to buy guns, but he suddenly thought of something, rolled his eyes, stretched out two fingers, and paid back the price: "2000 taels a piece. "

Then he added: "As many as you want."

This……

2000 taels was really too little, but when he thought of the profits brought to him by those gunpowder and shells, Melo Godinho was still a little moved. He hesitated for a moment, and stretched out a slap: "5000 taels."

"Two thousand five hundred taels."

"Four thousand eight hundred taels."

After struggling for a long time, the two finally negotiated on the price of 500 taels. They counted six ships with a total of 120 cannons. He Jiaan originally intended to buy all these cannons, but Melo Godinho Afraid of encountering Japanese pirates on the way back, he still kept twenty doors for himself.

Soon, all the cannons were moved down, corresponding to these cannons were a small amount of gunpowder and shells. After Melo Godinho had someone demonstrate how to fire the cannons, he was going to discuss the price of these gunpowders with He Jiaan.

Unexpectedly, He Jia'an had no intention of discussing with himself at all. After paying for the cannons, he moved the cannons to the silver ship.

What does he mean?

Melo Godinho returned to his ship in a daze, looking at the rows of artillery, always feeling that something was wrong.

Chapter 1483 Keep Your Words

Seeing the fleet of Melo Godinho disappearing from his sight, He Jiaan showed a faint smile on his face, then turned around and walked back.

It didn't matter if he left, but it made the two people waiting at the side very anxious.

Tong Guiyin hurriedly ran to He Jiaan, pointed at herself and said, "Mr. He, this business is done, so we should give us our share of the money, right?"

"Silver?" With a surprised expression on his face, He Jiaan pointed back at the direction where the Merlot Godinho fleet disappeared and said, "I have already given you the money. Didn't you see it just now? Why are you still asking me for money?" ?”

"He... this... I..." Tong Guiyin was immediately speechless when asked. That's not what he said when he came. Didn't he say that after letting him go, he would settle his money with Lao Xiong?

Now that the business is done, why don't you admit it?

Not only Tong Guiyin, but also Brother Xiong who was behind him did not do it anymore. Unlike Tong Guiyin, Brother Xiong still had more than a dozen people under him, and he came to He Jiaan with his arms swaying. Brother Xiong sneered and said, "What's the matter, it's just passed He just wants to tear down the bridge? Let me tell you, it’s not that easy. If you don’t put the 50 taels of silver here today, you won’t even think about leaving.”

As soon as the words fell, the brothers who followed Brother Xiong also surrounded He Jiaan and the others aggressively. At some point, there were a pair of shining daggers in their hands, and they pointed at He Jiaan. Look at it, if you don’t take it today Yin Zi, I'm afraid it's not easy to leave here.

Looking at the front and back, the smile on He Jiaan's face never disappeared, and there was a hint of amused expression on his face, then he stretched out his hand to take the two bank notes from Tang Jian, and said with a faint smile: "It's all Jianghu. Son and daughter, it’s just a joke, there’s no need to be so nervous, I’ve already prepared the bank notes, since the two of you are so nervous, let’s take it.”

joke?

Is this a joke?Just bring the banknotes here as soon as possible.

Tong Guiyin finally breathed a sigh of relief, and reached out to take the bank note, but when he glanced at the number on the bank note, he was suddenly stunned, and rubbed his eyes in disbelief until he confirmed that it said it was When it was 200 taels instead of the 20 taels I wanted, I immediately became angry.

Passing the bank note back, Tong Guiyin asked as if he wanted to eat someone: "Mr. He, I have been running for so many days. This is the bank note you gave me? 200 taels? Are you lying to a ghost?"

Like Tong Guiyin, the old bear next to him threw the 300 taels of banknotes on the ground vigorously, and pulled out the dagger from his waist. He pointed the sharp knife point at He Jiaan and said sharply: "Hand over the banknotes!" Come out, or I will kill you today."

There was a trace of hesitation on He Jiaan's face, as if he had encountered a big problem, and he said lightly after a long while: "Actually, I didn't want to kill someone today, but you forced me, but anyway, you are not good people. I shouldn't feel guilty about you."

you?kill?

Looking at his gentle appearance, he can actually kill people?

Old Xiong didn't believe He Jiaan's words at all, waved it, and was about to greet his brothers to put some pressure on He Jiaan, and let him see what the bleeding looked like, but the expression on his face suddenly froze, and his eyes were blank Looking at the people on the opposite side who didn't know where they got out, they were a little dazed.

It wasn't those people who left me in a daze, but the weapons those people held in their hands. If I read correctly, they were actually holding hand crossbows.

Hand crossbow, this is something only the elite in the capital, how could it appear here?

Old Xiong looked at the expression on He Jiaan's face again, and thought of what he said just now. He suddenly realized something, and quickly threw the dagger in his hand on the ground, then obediently picked up the bank note, and squeezed out a smile on his face. With a flattering smile, he said: "Mr. He, the younger ones have misremembered it. It is 300 taels of silver. One tael is not a lot. If there is nothing wrong, the younger ones will leave now."

"One or two is really a lot? Don't remember wrongly, it will not be so easy to find me again." He Jiaan teased.

"Not a lot, not a lot, that's all." Old Xiong nodded his head quickly, turned his head and shouted at Tong Guiyin: "Old Tong, didn't you just say 200 taels last time?"

Tong Guiyin who was called was still a little dazed, and after reacting for a while, he nodded hurriedly: "Yes, Old Xiong is right, this is 200 taels of silver, I just misremembered it, Mr. He Yuanwai, don't you?" Remember the villain, don't be as knowledgeable as the villain."

"Hehe, then it looks like our business is a success." He Jiaan showed a regretful expression, and said lightly: "I originally planned to eliminate harm for the people of Guangzhou today, but seeing how sensible you two are, For the sake of it, I will let you go, and remember when you go back, and don't do that tricky thing again, if you let me know... Hehe, you know the consequences."

"I know, I know, don't worry, Yuanwai He, the little one will be honest and honest when he goes back, and he will never do bad things again."

"Yes, me too."

Now no matter what He Jiaan said, both of them nodded in agreement, and He Jiaan didn't intend to continue talking nonsense with them, so he waved his hand and let the two go away, and he took the rest of the boat and people to the pier in Guangzhou. , for the next time, I have to stay here and wait for the good news of Xue Yi's victory.

He Jiaan left, and only Tong Guiyin, Lao Xiong, and his men were left on the pier. After He Jiaan's fleet was no longer in sight, the group of people didn't even have the strength to support their bodies, and they sat on the ground one by one. Only then did Old Xiong complain: "You are a big idiot, why did you dare to bring it out without anyone seeing it clearly? If it wasn't for people not looking down on us just now, I'm afraid we would all have to die here today."

Tong Guiyin was also aggrieved, seeing the 20 taels of silver turned into 200 taels like this, he felt as uncomfortable as being cut by a knife, and when he heard the old bear's complaint, he couldn't help but sighed: "Who knew this kid was so dark?" , I promised 100 million taels, but in the end I gave 50 taels. If I had known that he was so dishonest, I shouldn't have done business with him."

"But having said that, what is the identity of this kid?" Tong Guiyin was still a little scared when he thought of the hand crossbows in those people's hands.

After thinking about it, Old Xiong suddenly thought of a name, and asked in a low voice, "By the way, do you still remember who built the Splendid Villa?"

"Why don't you remember? Of course it was built by He Shilang. It's not like you don't know that none of the gangs in the entire Guangzhou city would dare to go to Jinxiu Villa to make trouble."

"He Shilang's surname is He, and the member who just left is also surnamed He. If you think about the weapons his subordinates are holding, could he be..."

Hearing what Old Xiong said, Tong Guiyin seemed to realize who the person who had just left was, and he couldn't help but gasped, feeling that his neck was a little cold, and stammered, "Brother Xiong, you Does that mean that person just now is... He Shilang?"

Old Xiong nodded slowly, then sighed faintly and said, "At least we got a few hundred taels of silver, but I think those Frangji guys are going to be in trouble."
