When the fleet docked, there were Japanese servants to take charge of the ship's cargo.

Even though Dongying is now closed off from the country, and the main fiscal revenue does not count on overseas trade, tariffs still have to be collected.

I saw that Wu Yunzhong stepped forward and stopped the Japanese who wanted to board the ship to investigate, and took out a sign from his waist, and those Japanese people immediately changed their faces when they saw this sign.

Shao Tilt, a middle-aged man who looked like a Japanese official, walked over, and after a polite conversation with Wu Yunzhong, he followed Wu Yunzhong to board the big ship where Liu Hongjian was.

"Introduce to Amano-kun, this is Liu Neng, the young owner of our Xishan business, the young master likes to travel all his life, and he also came to Nagasaki to play this time." Wu Yunzhong spoke fluent Japanese to Mihiro Amano.

And Liu Neng is Liu Hongji's royal codename, and it was Liu Hongjian who specially explained to Wu Yunzhong, and he felt that this code name was very festive and auspicious.

Amano Weiyu looked Liu Hongjian up and down, smiled at Liu Hongji, and muttered a few words to Wu Yunzhong, then bowed his head and entered the cabin.

"Master, he said that he heard that there is a prince in Daming who is also surnamed Liu, and he is a hero, and his subordinates did not dare to explain it to him, only that you have nothing to do with the king of Anguo."

The foreign speakers of Xishan Shanghe have always been the British Gongzhang first and the Qianguo Gong Mu Tianbo, and only a few court officials know the details of Xishan Shanghe.

It's just that the name of the king of Anguo can be transmitted to Japan, which makes Liu Hongjian very surprised.

After Wu Yunzhong and Liu Hong gradually explained a little, they followed Amano Miyu into the cabin.

The neat and neat list in the cabin was almost all tea leaves, and Mihiro Amano also grabbed a handful of tea leaves and smelled them, loudly praising the quality of the tea.

Wu Yunzhong naturally understood, and immediately ordered his subordinates to pack a bag and give it to Amano, and gave out a silver ticket of two thousand taels casually, and the young master Liu Neng couldn't wait to go ashore to play, and the boat behind him was also full of tea, so he wanted Amano to be accommodating and pay the tariff directly to save some time.

The ticket stub of the silver ticket is naturally the Nishiyama Shanghe, and the Xishan Shanghe branch of Dongying is opened in Nagasaki, and the credit of the Xishan Shanghe naturally has nothing to say, as long as you hold the silver ticket, you can immediately deal with the silver.

Amano glanced at it greedily, unceremoniously stuffed the silver ticket into his pocket, and then patted his chest and said that it was no problem, after all, the two were also old acquaintances.

So the fleet passed the inspection of the Japanese people, and even Amano specially carved out a small area in the port in order to reciprocate, and then Liu Hong gradually set foot on the land of the Japanese people with twenty or thirty followers.

"Old Wu, these widows' hairstyles are really ugly!" Liu Hong wanted to say it when he saw Amano, but it was not convenient at the time.

The hairstyles of the Japanese people were very different from those of later generations, especially men.

The man's hairstyle is slightly similar to that of Mites, the upper half of the head is bare, all the way to the top of the head, and the back two temples have not long hair, and most of the back of the head are tied with a small braid.

This hairstyle was not uncommon in later generations in China, but it was all because these Chinese people worked so hard that the hairline receded and the hair on the top of the head fell out, and this hairstyle has a unique term in China - the Mediterranean.

"Master, the Japanese have always been like this, vulgar, vulgar." Wu Yunzhong shook his head and said, he has dealt with the Japanese people a lot, so he is naturally not surprised.

Along the way, Liu Hong gradually saw the poverty of the Japanese people, at least the ordinary people in Dongying are really poor, not only are they all yellow-skinned and malnourished, but the clothes on their bodies are also tattered like beggars on the streets of Daming.

Liu Hong gradually lost his mind to sightseeing, so the group followed Wu Yunzhong directly to Tagawa's house in Nagasaki.

The trade between Nishiyama Shanghe and the Tagawa family actually started in the past two years, and this is still the matchmaking of the little brother Zheng Sen, because the person who spoke to the Tagawa family was Zheng Sen's brother Tagawa Nanazaemon.

The name Saemon may have been stopped by everyone, and the literal meaning of the word is the guard by the door, but this name is not something that anyone can take.

Because the gate guarded by this name belongs to the emperor, only the most loyal samurai are eligible to be sealed, and of course it doesn't matter if you have a capable father or a strong relationship.

Zheng Zhilong is very capable, not that he himself is capable, but his godfather has the ability, and Li Dan is one of the top maritime merchants in Dongying during the Warring States Period.

At the end of the Warring States period, the Tokugawa family and the other two princes fought to the death, and Zheng Zhilong's godfather Li Dan helped the Tokugawa family win with a huge amount of money.

In return, Li Dan monopolized Dongying's maritime trade for a long time, until Li Dan died of illness and Lao Zheng took over, Rao is so, and the Zheng family still has considerable influence in Nagasaki.

The reason why Zheng Sen's younger brother is not surnamed Zheng but Tian Chuan is also a helpless move.

The Tokugawa family was not at ease with the Zheng family, and Zheng Sen had to compromise for the sake of trade there, and passed Zheng Sen's younger brother to the Tagawa family, Zheng Sen's mother's maiden family.

Rao is like this, the Tokugawa family still does not allow Nanazaemon to return to the Ming Dynasty.

When Nanazaemon was fifteen years old, Zheng Zhilong sent a letter again to ask Tagawa's mother and son to come to Daming to reunite with their families, Tagawa was very happy and ready to set off, but was obstructed by the Japanese side, and after Tagawa's arguments, the Japanese side agreed to make a trip on the condition that Tagawa's second son Nanazaemon must stay in Japan if he wanted to go to China, in an attempt to force Tagawa to give up the idea of coming to China because it was difficult for mother and son to part.

But Tagawa weighed the pros and cons, remembering that when her husband and son's careers were still developing, she needed to wait for the morning and dusk, and when she couldn't seek perfection, she put the overall situation first, endured the pain and cut her love, and came to China alone.

Before leaving, she burst into tears and repeatedly told Shichizaemon, who lived with her grandfather: "Woohoo, I will give up my children for the rest of my life!" I pity my father, my brother, and my son, and I send my son to a merchant ship with some gold at that age. Woohoo, I'm going to die! Although, don't forget your father and brother, and don't forget the China where your mother is going. ”

Since then, Nanazaemon has been the representative of the Zheng family in Japan, engaged in Sino-Japanese trade.

When the news of the martyrdom of the Tagawa clan and Zheng Chenggong's rebellion against the Qing Dynasty reached Japan, "Seven Saemon Men Carry the Household, please go to the Ming Dynasty to succeed and destroy the Qing Dynasty to take revenge", and repeatedly sent a letter to the brother Chenggong Chenggong, asking to return to China to participate in the resistance against the Qing Dynasty.

Nanzaemon's request was not fulfilled, but he continued to send manpower and materials to supply his brother, and maintained the lifeline of the organization of maritime trade until the Tokugawa shogunate closed the country.

After lingering in front of Tian Chuan's house for a while, Liu Hongjian finally ordered Wu Yunzhong to come to the door.
