Chapter 1255: Chen Jisheng's Transaction
Mao Wenlong finally left the Wa Kingdom to embark on a journey back to the Ming Dynasty, this trip was a bit hasty, after all, the Wa Kingdom has not really stabilized. But time did not allow Mao Wenlong to delay any longer, so he had to hand over the rest of the troubles to Hong Chengchou, the old fox, to take care of. With him, Mao Wenlong is also at ease, if even Hong Chengchou, the old fox, can't handle it, then Mao Wenlong can't find a second person who can be so trusted.
The waters of the Wa Kingdom were completely controlled by the Dongjiang Army, and during the stay of the army, not even a single pirate was present. This is the strength of the Dongjiang Army Naval Division, which makes those pirates fearful.
There are no pirates and no threat, which makes the itinerary very dull, but fortunately, Mao Wenlong has never lacked the spirit of entertainment. In the boring itinerary, you can always change tricks and have fun, so that this trip is no longer so dull and boring.
Unlike Mao Wenlong, Chen Jisheng and them led an expedition to other countries, which was no more comfortable than returning to the Ming Dynasty. The army sails in the vast sea, even if there is no force that dares to challenge the Dongjiang Army and Sailors, but God, this unavoidable enemy, still has to be on guard.
There is no man-made enemy, but there must always be a guard against natural and man-made disasters, and a fleet of nearly 500 warships will have a lot to deal with in the daily voyage. Chen Jisheng and Chen Qi are more than lieutenant generals in the army, and the two of them have nothing to spare every day.
Among the Chinese army, a huge Fuchuan battleship is Chen Jisheng's car, and it is also the command ship of the whole army. Today, the wind is beautiful, the sea is calm and waveless, Chen Jisheng is deliberately busy, pushing the sundries in the army to Chen Qiyue to take care of, he himself secretly hugged the wine jar, came to the deck of the bow of the ship, blowing the accustomed sea breeze, and drank alone.
The only thing that made Chen Jisheng feel unhappy was that there was only sake brought out by the Wa Kingdom in the battleship at the moment, and this kind of wine was far less delicious than the high wine of the Ming Dynasty. Looking up at the mouthful, Chen Jisheng pursed his mouth and muttered dissatisfiedly: "Damn sake, it's not as good as those Yiren grapes." ”
Just when Chen Jisheng was dissatisfied, he suddenly smelled a familiar aroma of wine, which was a grape wine that only Mao Wenlong had. Chen Jisheng immediately got up and looked at the aroma of wine, but saw Li Nan, the messenger of Luzon, slowly walking towards him with a jar of wine in his arms.
"I saw the marshal drinking here alone, and there happened to be a grape brew given to me by the general soldier here, I wonder if the marshal would like to taste it?" Li Nan's face was full of humility, and his tone of voice was very soft, with a flattering look.
Chen Jisheng is already a wine worm at the moment, where can he resist the temptation of good wine. I didn't want to think about it, so I nodded in agreement immediately, and then politely asked the guards on the side to get an extra chair.
The vessel used for winemaking is a wooden barrel with a hole in the mouth of the barrel that is plugged with a wooden stopper. Li Nan obviously came prepared, he took out a dagger from his body, and prepared to pry open the wooden stopper. But unexpectedly, his action directly alarmed the guards, and the two steel knives were on his neck in an instant.
Chen Jisheng was stunned for a moment, dissatisfiedly dismissed the two overly nervous guards, and then smiled and apologized to Li Nan: "It's okay, it's okay, you continue." ”
Li Nan was obviously really scared just now, but he couldn't blame others, he could only blame himself for not thinking about it enough. The hand holding the knife trembled slightly, and Li Nan tried a few times, but he was still unable to pry the wooden stopper open.
Chen Jisheng frowned when he saw it, and simply snatched it and pried it up himself. The cork was pried open by Chen Jisheng in three or two clicks, and in an instant, the rich aroma of wine spread. Chen Jisheng drooled and began to look for a container to hold the wine.
Li Nan was very interested, and immediately took out a wooden box from his arms, and after opening it in front of Chen Jisheng, there were actually two glass cups inside.
Chen Jisheng often follows Mao Wenlong's side and is no stranger to glass cups. He also has a few private hiding, and all of his habits are infected from Mao Wenlong, including the habit of falling in love with drinking grape wine.
Li Nan put the cup away, then took the wine barrel and filled two glasses himself. Chen Jisheng's urgency couldn't wait, he immediately picked up the cup and put it under his nose to smell it. Then he couldn't wait to take a sip, Chen Jisheng's eyes suddenly lit up, and he pursed his lips and said, "Not bad, that's the taste." ”
When he was with Mao Wenlong, Chen Jisheng had never drunk such a grape wine, and only Mao Wenlong would always have such pure grape wine. Chen Jisheng took this sip and immediately affirmed that this wine was indeed authentic, the wine had been tasted, and Chen Jisheng also calmed down.
He looked at Li Nan on the other side and said meaningfully: "Master Li, if you have something to say, you can't do anything, send out such a good wine, just say it if you need it!" ”
From the moment Li Nan came with the wine barrel in his arms, Chen Jisheng already knew that he must have something to ask for him. The wine is very pure, Chen Jisheng will definitely not push it out, in short, drink the wine first to relieve his cravings. As for what Li Nan asks of himself, whether he agrees or not, it depends on Chen Jisheng's mood.
didn't expect Chen Jisheng to be so bold, Li Nan immediately handed over a grateful look, and then said respectfully: "Chen Dashuai has been invincible all his life, and he is invincible in the Dongjiang army, and it is not an exaggeration to call Dashuai the military god of the Ming Dynasty." Xiaguan only has a small request here, hoping that after Chen Dashuai arrives in Luzon, during the period of his stay in Luzon, he can let the two unfilial sons of Xiaguan's family study with Dashuai for some time. ”
Chen Jisheng frowned when he heard this, and many thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant just now. thought that Li Nan would make any request to himself, but he never expected that he would make such a surprising request.
After pondering for a moment, Chen Jisheng said with great interest: "Why does Master Li suddenly want to send his son to me?" Aren't you afraid that your king will misunderstand you, so that your Li family will suffer from now on? ”
Li Nan shook his head with a smile and explained: "Don't worry about the handsome, my king has always been committed to his duty, and we are also sincerely surrendered to the Ming Dynasty." In recent years, the sea has not been peaceful, in addition to the increasingly rampant pirates, there are also those who come to Luzon from time to time to rob. Luzon was often attacked by these forces, but it suffered from its own lack of strength to resist, but fortunately, the appearance of the Dongjiang Army later made these crazy pirates and Yiren stop. ”
This explanation is reasonable, and in recent years, Luzon has indeed benefited a lot from the rise of the Dongjiang Army and Naval Division. Li Nan just stated a fact!
