The news obtained from Guan Shaohekou made Han Mo's somewhat excited mood when he returned to his hometown quickly calm down, and he also realized that the maritime trade was now in the midst of internal and external troubles. &&

Although he knew in his heart that his uncle was now quietly suppressing him, he couldn't imagine that he was not only suppressing himself politically, but also stabbing him in the back in business.

This feeling made Han Mo even more uncomfortable in his heart.

Compared with the internal worries brought about by the current war and Han Xuandao, the external troubles of maritime trade are now more serious, and its threat is already imminent.

Shimazu Tsukihisa's fleet attacked the merchant fleet, which was naturally a planned sneak attack, but it can also be seen that Shimazu Tsukihisa did not give up his interests in the South Seas.

The Japanese people naturally also understood the interests carried by the merchant fleet, and they knew that the Nanyang region was a huge piece of fat, and now the Nanyang countries and the Central Plains exchanged trade, which made the Nanyang prosperous for a while, and this piece of fat is now golden and oily, for the local barren Japanese people, it is impossible for them to give up such a piece of fat.

Although their strength can't swallow this piece of fat, it is a matter of course to rub oil and get some benefits for three days.

Han Mo was very clear about the harm caused by the Japanese people in his heart.

In his heart, the sea trade will not just stop at Nanyang, he has heaven and earth in his heart, and knows that Nanyang is just an inconspicuous corner of the world, and the real business opportunity is in the farther away from the sea.

In recent years, we have vigorously developed commerce and trade in Nanyang, firstly, because the current strength and conditions only allow Han Mo's fleet to trade with that area, and secondly, it is also to firmly grasp the market of Nanyang in our hands and use it as a springboard to sail to the farther oceans.

The second is a human being, Han Mo, who was born on the shore of the East China Sea, naturally has a different vision and mind from the mainland, and before he walked to the changing Yanjing, his eyes were the vast and boundless sea.

The people of the East China Sea have been fishing in the sea for generations, and occasionally clash with the bandits of the sea, but in this world, no one dares to look further overseas.

Perhaps some people occasionally flash a trace of doubt in their minds when they look at the boundless East China Sea, and they may also want to know what kind of scene it will be like on the other side of this sea, but except for those pirates who eat in the sea, the Central Plains has not really consciously stepped out of this sea.

But Han Mo changed all this, he got the opportunity and resolutely started the navigation career of the Central Plains people.

When he was young, he thought of the famous Three Treasures eunuch, Zheng He of the Ming Dynasty, who, with the support of Emperor Yongle, led a huge fleet and sailed overseas, which not only spread the prestige of China overseas, but also brought huge benefits.

Time and space are reversed, the Three Treasure Eunuchs have never appeared, and the first person to sail has now become Han Mo, and Han Mo hopes that one day, there will be a huge Central Plains fleet to sail overseas.

It is no exaggeration to say that this is a major event for the benefit of the country and the people, and Han Mo secretly swore when he was very young that he would do it all his life.

The handling of internal worries should be slow and impatient, but external troubles must be eradicated as soon as possible.

Once the sea route was cut off by the Japanese, it would be devastating to the cause of navigation.

HNA will not only bring great benefits to the Central Plains, but also the basis for Han Mo to gain strong economic strength in the current situation, and the thousands of pirates in the sea can die for themselves, in the final analysis, it is because he has given them a way to live without worry, once the trade line is cut off and can not continue this business, then whether this group of pirates can still firmly follow him, that will be a big question mark.

In both public and private affairs, he must ensure the unimpeded passage of this sea route, and he must also kill the Japanese people who disturb the sea route.

……

The night banquet in Xifu was lively and lively, and it didn't end until late at night, the two sect masters were very old, and after the banquet began, they all rested separately, and Han Mo personally took care of the guests, the banquet was staggered, everyone wanted to toast a glass to Lord Han, fortunately, Yang Qing had the heart to rely on the big tree of the Han family, so he took the initiative and blocked a lot of wine for Han Mo, and everyone also knew that Han Mo had a tiring journey, if everyone drank the wine they toasted, I was afraid that before the banquet ended, Han Mo would have to fall under the table.

Han Mo's identity is now in full swing, but this is in his own home, and the guests are all old folks from his hometown, so he is not restrained during the banquet, even those officials have put down their shelves and talked happily with the local squires.

After the end, Han Mo instructed Han Bo to send someone to send several elders of the Han clan home, and before leaving, Han Mo prepared a very heavy gift for each elder, which made several old guys smile, and even said that Han Mo had grown up and went back happily.

In the middle of the night, the mansion finally quieted down, and after the people on the other side of the East Mansion helped clean up, they all returned to the mansion with Han Qin's family, and the entire West Mansion suddenly became quiet and abnormal.

Han Mo beckoned more than 40 maids and servants in the house, including Han Bo, and each of them gave a gift, and the people were all overjoyed and thanked them repeatedly.

When everything was done, Han Mo returned to his courtyard, Aunt Bi and Han Qin had worked hard all the way, and they had already fallen asleep, even Xiao Qian was also tired of the journey, and took Han Ding to sleep, only Huiniang waited for Han Mo to return to the room.

After Han Mo returned to the room, he did not disturb his wife and children, and under the service of Hui Niang, after bathing, he changed into lighter and more comfortable clothes, and then told Hui Niang to rest, and did not stay in the courtyard, went out of his yard, and walked along the bluestone path to Han Zhengkun's courtyard.

The night was quiet, the moon was bright like water, walking on the bluestone path, Han Mo was much quieter in his heart, but at this time, his mind remembered the quiet cottage in the back garden.

When he left two years ago, in that hut, there was a beautiful woman who fell into loneliness again, and after that, the Wind Country and his party were like strangers, and until today, Han Mo doesn't know how it happened.

He also wanted to come back many times to find out, but he was riddled with miscellaneous matters, and he had no chance to come back here, and he even had the idea of sending someone back to check, but remembering Liu Rumeng's unknown identity, and the Han family placed her in the back garden of Xifu in the most confidential state, this matter is very important, and it is a person he can trust, so he can't let him get involved in this matter.

Until today, he finally returned to this mansion, and in the blink of an eye, he was able to enter the back garden, but at this moment, for some reason, he had no idea of entering the back garden.

He knew very well that Liu Rumeng must no longer be in the back garden, otherwise today's night banquet in Xifu would definitely not be full of guests.

Looking up at the bright moon in the sky, Han Mo sighed lightly.

Like a dream, really like a dream?

He stopped, put his hands behind his back, groaned slightly, and finally raised his head and looked in the direction of the back garden, there were layers of mountains exposed in the West Mansion, and when he looked at the past, he naturally couldn't see a corner of the garden, but Han Mo couldn't help but think of the bits and pieces of the time he spent with Liu Rumeng for half a year, and when he thought of it, he finally shook his head gently, and his face showed a helpless smile.

At this moment, he heard the sound of footsteps, Han Mo looked up, but saw Han Bo coming towards him, Han Mo suddenly showed an intimate smile, went forward, and said softly: "Han Mo, haven't you rested so late?" ”

Han Bo smiled as always, and his voice was still quite respectful: "Young Master, are you going to see the Second Sect Master?" ”

Han Mo nodded slightly, "I don't know if grandpa sleeps, but I think ...... Grandpa should be waiting for me to come over! ”

"Sure enough, it is connected by blood, and the young master still knows the thoughts of the second sect master." Han Bohan said with a smile: "The second sect master asked me to come over and tell me that he is now watching the moon in the back garden, if you want to see him, you can go to the back garden to find him!" ”

"Look at the moon?" Han Mo was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "I know, let's go." He walked a few steps, suddenly stopped, turned around, stared at Han Mo, and said warmly: "Han Mo, everything is fine with Han Qing, you don't have to worry, he is very angry for you!" ”

Although Han Bo didn't ask, he was naturally worried about his son in his heart, and when he heard Han Mo say this, he suddenly felt relieved and said with a smile: "He is naturally right to follow the fifth young master." ”

Han Mo nodded, didn't say much, and went straight to the back garden.

As soon as he entered the garden, there was a fresh smell coming to his nose, two years have passed, everything in the back garden has not changed, Han Mo looked at the house at first sight, it was quiet, there was no light, although he knew that it would be so, he was still a little lost in his heart, stabilized his mind, and very skillfully found Han Zhengkun who was lying in a bamboo rocking chair humming a swallow under a grape trellis.

The old man held a big mountain in his hand, wearing loose clothes, lying on the bamboo chair very leisurely, under the grape trellis, leisurely and happy, the moonlight through the gaps in the grape trellis, speckled and sprinkled down, it was very beautiful.

Han Mo walked behind the old man, stretched out his two hands, pressed on the old man's head, and pressed it gently.

Han Zhengkun showed a loving smile on his face, but he didn't open his eyes, and he still fanned his fan again and again.

After a while, Han Zhengkun opened his eyes and said softly, "Sit next to grandpa!" ”

Han Mo withdrew his hand and sat down on the small wooden chair beside Han Zhengkun.

This is a scene that has appeared countless times since childhood, the old man is lying on a bamboo chair, and a teenager is sitting on a small stool next to him, listening to the old man talk about many things.

The former teenager has married a wife and had children, but the deep love for grandchildren can only get stronger and stronger.

Han Zhengkun turned his head, two years have passed, the old man has aged a lot, the wrinkles on his forehead have become much more and deeper, the smile on his face has disappeared, but there is a solemn look between his eyebrows and eyes, which is an expression that Han Mo rarely sees from his face.

"Are you unwilling?" Han Zhengkun's voice was very soft, "Cutting your power, are you dissatisfied?" ”
