Chapter 1115: Habayashi Kidnapped

  Chapter 1115 Habayashi Kidnapped

  Ha Long Bay.

  A row of giant ships lined up on the sea, and at the pier, eight hundred Xuanjia flying cavalry stood.

  Xu Luoren is slowly putting on the armor, the phoenix-winged helmet mountain script armor bestowed by the emperor, and the unicorn-swallowing-shoulder lion-savage belt.

   "Mr. Xu, there is no need to fight like this?"

   Beside him is Niu Jianhu, the defense envoy of the South China Sea Navy Fleet who escorted him from Guangzhou. Xu Luoren just stood there, and two personal soldiers fastened each piece of armor for him.

   "Mr. Xu, why don't I go to see Mr. Wei first?" Gao Jin, who also came from Guangzhou, said with a smile on his face.

   "I am here by order, so I should go to see Duke Wei in person."

   "But you don't need to wear armor, and you bring so many cavalry, it's easy to be misunderstood."

"Misunderstanding? What misunderstanding? Duke Wei is my God of War in the Tang Dynasty, the son of King Zhongwu, the God of Protecting the National Army. Who in the Tang Army disrespects me? Although I, Old Xu, have never fought any decent battles, I am still a general. To pay respects to Duke Wei, of course you have to wear armor to see him."

   Niu Jianhu and Gao Jin looked at each other in blank dismay.

In the small fishing village of Shenlong Island not far from the wharf, those merchants had also seen the movement here, and everyone was shocked when they saw the situation. It still continues to operate, and even has the leisure to watch the excitement from afar.

   "Which one do you think this is from?"

In a teahouse, the legend of the heroes of the Sui and Tang Dynasties was being told, and everyone enjoyed listening to it. When the fleet arrived, Xuanjiaqi set up a battle, which immediately caused chaos in the teahouse. The storyteller, who is usually eloquent, also stuttered now Trembling and unable to speak, many listeners also walked around.

  The few people in the private seating on the second floor are quite relaxed.

   "Where else could it be, that one is annoyed, time and time again, don't you want to lose face?"

  The emperor was angry and blood flowed.

   "I heard that the saint sent Xuan Jiaqi to pick up the bride." A guy said with a smile. The term "accepting marriage" is very interesting. Qin Lang was married to Princess Changle by a sage more than ten years ago. He was going to get married a long time ago, but after delaying it, the emperor sent a commander of Baiqi to pick up Wei Gong and return to Princess Shang to get married.

Those who can drink tea in the private room of this large tea house with high consumption during the day are originally leisure and rich people. In addition to fishermen, there are also many sea merchants who buy land and build villas on Dragon Island. In addition to the beautiful scenery and pleasant climate here, the most important thing is that Wei Guogong built a large manor on this island and often lived on this island.

  Therefore, in the past few years, more and more people have bought land and built garden villas on Long Island. They are either rich or expensive, and most of them are sea merchants.

  Those garden villas that cost tens of thousands of guan, have added a bit of wealth to the island, and also boosted the level of merchandise and consumption on the island.

   Especially some big restaurants and teahouses, the decoration is no worse than those in Taiping and Canton Zhugang, and the consumption level inside can even reach those in Beijing and Beijing.

   But play for fun, fight for trouble, everyone is still very close to Wei Gong.

  With the situation outside, no one would believe that the Son of Heaven really wanted to harm Wei Gong. They were more like watching the excitement.

  Although Duke Wei has been idle at home for a few years, none of the merchants in the world, especially those from Lingnan, worships Qin Lang as the God of Wealth.

Everyone knows that today's prosperous sea trade and business prosperity are due to the support of the emperor and the court, and it is also inseparable from the vigorous promotion of Wei Gong. It can be said that in today's general environment, Wei Gong is the policy maker and implementer .

   Everyone is very satisfied with the current environment and policies, and they all rely on this to make a fortune and live a chic life.

   "Have you heard that the Bohai Sea route will be banned."

   "It's not the ban on the Bohai sea route, but the ban on the Koguryo and Baekje routes. It is forbidden for any cargo to go to these two countries. Moreover, the route to the Wa country is also partially restricted, and some commercial goods are prohibited from passing."

   "What is this for?"

   "What else can you do? It's going to be a war, isn't that obvious?"

Merchants have always been well-informed, and the more top-level businessmen, the more complicated their relationships. It is difficult for pure businessmen to grow big and last long. A businessman is just an agent of those powerful families.

  In the past few years, not only the Tongyi sea route to the South China Sea has become more and more prosperous, but also the Bohai Sea route to the northern Haidong countries is also very lively.

Especially the smuggling trade, which is booming. Iron materials shipped from Guangzhou, grain from Taiping Port, rubber bands and horns from Qinhuangdao, etc., while gold, ginseng, horses, slaves, and sea Dongqing shipped from Goguryeo were shipped from Silla. The servants and lacquer brought in, the silver and copper materials brought in from Japan...

  Large and large quantities of smuggled goods, as if no one saw them, the scale is scary, and several fleets at sea have never checked.

   At first, some people thought it was strange, but soon everyone knew what was going on.

   This is not smuggling at all.

   Some ignorant people really thought it was smuggling, and wanted to run there to make a fortune, but they were seized by the navy as soon as they went to sea, and then severely punished.

  Slowly, those who have the knowledge can join in and get a share of the pie, and those who have no knowledge honestly give up the idea of ​​not joining in the fun.

   "Well, Goguryeo now has nothing to sell except slaves, ginseng, and Costin."

  The Annan maritime merchants who were outside the game had already seen the problem of smuggling, but the Goguryeo people were in the middle of the game and couldn't see it clearly.

  Long Island, in the Qin Family Manor.

  Qin Lang looked at the letter in front of him and just smiled.

   "Okay, you go down."

  A man who looked exactly like Qin Lang nodded and exited.

   "Send Shadow to Treasure Island."

  A Huang station window looked at the cavalry on the pier far outside, as well as the fleet in the harbor, grinning, showing big gold teeth.

  Qin Lang's manor was built in the middle of the mountain. It was actually on the top of a small mountain, but there was a higher mountain behind it, so it looked like it was halfway up the mountain.

  This place is condescending, but the scenery is unique.

   "Xu Luoren really knows how to put on a show, Sanlang, you, the God of War, ordered soldiers to form an array. Isn't this Luban holding a big ax in front of the gate?"

  Qin Lang put the letter into a charcoal basin to burn it, and then smashed the ashes into pieces.

   "Okay, I guess General Xu is really annoyed. After coming here for so many days, I have been turned away every time I visit the island. No matter how good-tempered I am, I can't hold back. Open the door, and I will go to meet General Xu."

   "Sanlang, let this old boy play the role. I really want to see if he has the guts to really knock on the door."

  Qin Lang got up, "Stay on the front line when doing things, so we can meet each other in the future. General Xu is also a confidant in front of the saint, so don't offend him hard."

  Qin Lang also just came back from Luzon Island, and it is gradually getting on the right track there. Although it is still a barren land with a lot of waste waiting for jobs, overall it is developing well.

  With the attraction of gold mines, under the publicity of those gold diggers, batch after batch of gold diggers are now rushing to pan for gold, and the number of gold diggers continues to increase. When Qin Lang came back, there were already more than 50,000 gold diggers there, and Qin Lang also removed many others.

   Responsible for reclamation and cultivation, as well as some manual production and processing, and also formed a guard.

His plan is to gradually become self-sufficient. In the future, the food grown on the island will be self-sufficient, plus fishing, raising pigs, cattle and sheep. .

  Industries related to people's livelihood, such as mills, mills, lumber mills, wood processing plants, brick factories, tile factories, ceramic factories, textile factories, furniture factories, blacksmith shops, tailor shops, etc., must also be gradually established.

Gold panning is now the primary industry in Luzon Island. This can guarantee to attract more people, and the gold obtained can also fill the huge cost of Luzon Island’s early development, ensuring a balance of income and expenditure, not just a bottomless pit. If you can't get in or out, then it won't last in the long run.

  Gold mining is the primary industry. In the future, sugarcane planting and sugar processing, cotton planting and cotton textiles, and even tea and spice planting and processing will follow one after another. It is necessary to ensure that Luzon itself has sufficient development capabilities.

   Originally, Qin Lang wanted to stay in Luzon for a while longer, but if he could sit in charge for three to five years, then the basic foundation of Luzon Island would be well established.

   But the emperor can't wait here.

  A letter of imperial decree, and a call for envoys.

  When he got the urgent report that General Habayashi, the commander of the Hundred Riders, Xu Luoren brought the Xuanjia Baiqi to the south from Qizhou Shengjia, and arrived in Wu'an on a ship of the North Sea Fleet, he knew that he would not be able to escape this time.

  Letting Shadow delay for him for another half a month, Qin Lang finally came back.

  Xu Luoren was also annoyed by Qin Lang, he came here in person according to the order, but after half a month, he didn't even see Qin Lang's face, only once Qin Lang showed his face from a distance and let him go back.

  Xu Luoren also made up his mind today, since Qin Lang didn't give him face so much, then he has nothing to say.

   Put on the full armor and get on the horse.

  Xu Luoren lifted his black lacquered iron horse lance, waved the lance, and rode the horse slowly towards the manor on the hillside.

   Behind them, eight hundred black armor knights moved forward together.

  Niu Jianhu reluctantly mounted his horse and followed.

   All the way to the bottom of the mountain.

  Xu Luoren's expression became more and more ugly, looking at the closed gate of the manor, did he really want to charge into it?

  Although he has a will, but if he really wants to do this, he will completely tear himself apart with Qin Lang.

  He was a little confused, why should Qin Lang do this, isn't this embarrassing him?

  Just as he hesitated, the door slowly opened from the inside.

  Qin Lang took the lead and came out first.

  Xu Luoren quickly reined in his mount, and waved his arm to signal the rear armored horse to stop.

  Qin Lang approached on horseback and stopped slowly.

   "Grand Xu!"

  Xu Luoren looked at Qin Lang with a complicated expression, gritted his teeth to calm down, and greeted him with crossed hands, "Duke Wei, the emperor has an edict."

  Qin Lang dismounted, "Qin Lang, please declare the imperial decree!"
