Chapter 611: The Arrogant Dutchman
"Lin, ask him, but the Ming Dynasty agreed to our request for trade?"
Wei Malang couldn't help but his eyes lit up when he saw several ships of gold, silver, cloth and other gifts arriving with officials from the Ming Dynasty.
It wasn't that he was interested in these gifts, but in his opinion, since the Ming Dynasty could send people to send gifts, it must have agreed to the trade requirements of their 'big mud country'.
"My lord, has the imperial court agreed to the request of the Great Ni Country to pay tribute and trade?"
After hearing Wei Malang's instructions, Lin Yu, who was the interpreter, quickly looked at Zhangzhou Prefecture Magistrate Zhan Xianzhong with a smile on his face, who came to deliver the gift.
"Haha, Big Mud Country? Do you think I am blind? Are there any red-haired and white-skinned people in Big Mud Country?"
Glancing at Wei Malang and the Dutch people around him, Zhan Xianzhong couldn't help but look at Lin Yu with a joking expression.
"Uh, that, this..."
Seeing Zhan Xianzhong's joking smile, Lin Yu, the translator, suddenly couldn't help but look embarrassed.
"Well, let's forget about this and that. The governor and the magistrate thought that it would not be easy for these red-haired people to come to the Ming Dynasty, so they gave them some gifts in return for their hard work... Penghu is the territory of the Ming Dynasty, how can it be left to the Ming Dynasty?
People occupy it? Tell them to withdraw from Penghu immediately!"
Fortunately, just when Lin Yu, the interpreter who was telling lies with his eyes open, looked embarrassed, Zhan Xianzhong, who was appointed by Fujian Governor Shen Chang and Zhangzhou Magistrate Han Zhuo, did not continue to pursue the matter of Dani Kingdom, but told him
The purpose of this trip.
"Then you don't know about trade?",
Hearing what Zhan Xianzhong said, Lin Yu, who was an interpreter, couldn't help but feel a twitch in his heart, and then couldn't help but confirm again.
"Trade? If you want to trade with the Ming Dynasty, you must first withdraw from Penghu!"
Zhan Xianzhong suddenly frowned when he looked at the ghost-painted flag with Chinese characters raised by the Dutch not far away and the building under construction.
You know, before leaving, Shen Chang and Han Zhuoji warned him to find a way to persuade these red-haired people called "Dutch people" to leave.
But now, looking at the posture of these people on the island, this goal may be difficult to accomplish.
…
"Lin, tell these natives that this is the place where I, the Dutch United East India Company, want us to leave. It is impossible for us to leave. Our East India Company has the right to establish rule anywhere in the Indian Ocean and Pacific regions! Including conscription.
, declare war, conclude peace..."
When he learned that Zhan Xianzhong had sent gifts just to get them out of Penghu, Wei Malang's expression immediately changed, and then he turned his face and regarded Zhan Xianzhong and Daming, whose skin colors were somewhat similar to those of Southeast Asian natives, as "aboriginal students."
'.
Then, with the so-called "authorization" given to the Dutch United East India Company by the highest authority of the Netherlands, Penghu was naturally declared to be the stronghold of the Dutch United East India Company, which can be described as arrogant to the extreme.
"In addition, in the future, your Ming Dynasty ships are not allowed to trade anywhere without the permission of our Dutch United East India Company. Otherwise, we have the right to sink any of your ships!"
In the end, Wei Malang not only arrogantly rejected Zhan Xianzhong's request to withdraw from Penghu, but also shamelessly and arrogantly proposed the power to monopolize China's trade.
"What is this red-haired chirpy talking about?"
Looking at Wei Malang who looked 'excited', Zhan Xianzhong couldn't help but frown again.
"My lord, the deputy commander said..."
After looking at Wei Malang, although he was a little embarrassed, Lin Yu finally translated his words to Zhan Xianzhong truthfully.
"This is your request, did I hear you correctly? Hahahaha!"
After Lin Yu finished translating Wei Malang's words, Zhan Xianzhong, who originally came with gifts to persuade her, could not help but look at the translator Lin Yu with an angry smile. .
"Master Zhan, this villain is just an interpreter. In fact, it is none of my business..."
Seeing Zhan Xianzhong's reaction, Lin Yu couldn't help but look panicked. There was no way, as an out-and-out Ming Dynasty man, he was not as ignorant as Wei Malang.
"Tell this ignorant and arrogant red-haired fan that this is my Ming Dynasty's place, and no one else has this or that fucking power. Without the consent of Ming Dynasty, they have no rights at all!"
Faced with Wei Malang's arrogance and arrogance, Zhan Xianzhong couldn't help it at this moment, even though he was told by Shen Yang and Han Zhuo to be as kind to these red-haired fans as possible before setting off.
Just kidding, when did a few red-haired people dare to make terms with the Ming Dynasty? You must know that even when the Wala people captured the emperor, the Ming Dynasty did not agree to an unreasonable request from them, let alone a few red-haired people like these. It’s crazy.
"Also, tell them that if they don't want to withdraw, then wash their necks and wait for my tomorrow's army to chop them down!"
In the end, Zhan Xianzhong, who knew that there was no way to solve the problem by means of grace, ignored the instructions of the governor and prefect when he came, and turned around with a flick of his sleeves and stepped onto the ship he came from, preparing to leave.
"Lin Yu, you go with him and inform them of our conditions to the people who can make the decision. In addition, ask them to release Li Jin and the others. Tell them that if they don't release them, they will take over the Dutch United East India Company. bear the wrath of God and bear the punishment of God!”
I don’t know how much fake wine Wei Malang drank. They were defeated in Haojing not long ago. After learning that Ming Dynasty rejected their request for trade, they immediately put on an extremely arrogant attitude. Come on attitude.
…
"Two adults, those Western Yi ghosts are so arrogant and ignorant, it's useless to reason with them..."
Until he returned to Zhangzhou, Zhan Xianzhong still couldn't let go of his anger, so he relayed Wei Malang's request exactly as it was.
"Arrogant!"
"Yelang is arrogant!"
After hearing Wei Malang's unreasonable and arrogant request from Zhan Xianzhong, Shen Chang and Han Zhuo, who had not thought about using diplomatic means to let these people leave, now completely gave up their illusions.
"Come here, arrest that Lin Yu! As a citizen of the Ming Dynasty, he actually colluded with foreigners to cause trouble..."
In the end, Lin Yu, the interpreter who was forcibly sent by Wei Malang to threaten the officials of the Ming Dynasty, had to take the blame for others and endured the anger of Shen Mian, the governor. He was also arrested and imprisoned with Li Jin and others. together.
…
"General Zhu, this is what happened. Those red-haired people are so arrogant and shameless that they dare to humiliate our Ming Dynasty like this. We also ask General Zhu to send troops to annihilate them all!"
After arresting Lin Yuye, Shen Yang immediately informed Zhu Wenda, the commander-in-chief, on the results of this "courtesy first, then attack" strategy, and prepared to use force to resolve the issue of these red-haired bandits occupying Penghu.
"Don't worry, Mr. Shen, none of these red-haired fans can escape. However, let them be proud for a few days for the time being! When the edict from His Majesty and the imperial court comes, haha..."
Looking towards Penghu, Zhu Wenda, Qian Kuan and other generals suddenly couldn't help but laugh meaningfully.
