On October 14, [-], Lin Yuhao led the fleet to return to Liaodong officially.

After more than three months of teaching, the Zheng family's navy has mastered the method of manipulating the new type of warship.The gunners equipped on the warship also learned how to use the German 88mm artillery and the Type 82 [-]mm mortar.

After completing the teaching training, of course there is no need to continue to stay in the Zheng family.

Looking at Zheng Sen every day, Lin Yuhao also missed his daughter and son.The matter here has been resolved, of course it is time to go back to Liaodong to accompany my daughter and son as soon as possible.

Lin Yuhao wanted to go back, and Zheng Zhilong expressed his thanks.Send Zheng Zhibao on board the Nanjiang warship and lead fifteen Zheng family navy warships to escort Lin Yuhao's fleet.

One large, six middle and fifteen small, these 22 ships are sailing on the sea.At first glance, it is an existence that cannot be provoked, and many foreign sailing fleets have avoided it.

On October [-], the fleet sailed to the waters of Dongying.

Here, the fleet encountered a group of strange fleets.

Lin Yuhao took the lead on the Shenyang, followed by other ships such as the Nanjiang.

As soon as the time came, Lin Yuhao used a telescope in the command room of the battleship to see the confluence of two fleets in the distance.

Seems like a deal is going on.

Originally, this kind of maritime cargo trading was a normal thing.On the spur of the moment, Lin Yuhao ordered the fleet to stop and asked someone to invite Zheng Zhibao to the Shenyang.

After a while, Zheng Zhibao came to the command room of the Shenyang battleship.

Lin Yuhao handed the telescope to Zheng Zhibao and said, "Brother Zheng, look at those merchant ships that are trading in the distance. Is there something wrong?"

Hearing what Lin Yuhao said, Zheng Zhibao took the binoculars and looked at the group of merchant ships that were trading in the distance.

After just a few glances, Zheng Zhibao, who often goes out to sea, noticed something was wrong.

The Zheng family has a lot of power in the southern waters, even in the Dongying waters.That also has a lot of influence. It can be said that the merchant ships trading here are monitored by the Zheng family.

The Zheng family has long stipulated that all merchant ships sail and trade.You must pay 5 taels of silver every year and hang the blue Jiaolong flag.

Only in this way can they get the protection of the Zheng family's navy and will not be robbed by pirates.

But the merchant ships in front of them did not fly the blue dragon flag.It was just because of the large number of ships that they were not attacked by pirates.

Zheng Zhibao, who put down the binoculars, said to Lin Yuhao with displeasure: "Master Lin is right, the boats on the opposite side are indeed weird. They are quite courageous, and they are conducting maritime transactions on my Zheng family's territory. How dare they not hang The blue dragon flag, it is clear that it does not give our Zheng family face."

Lin Yuhao smiled and said: "That's just right, Brother Zheng and I went forward to investigate together. If there is a real problem, the merchant ships and people will belong to your Zheng family, and their goods and money. Our two families will split the accounts [-]-[-]. What do you think?"

Hearing what Lin Yuhao said, Zheng Zhibao's eyes immediately burst into light and said: "Okay, this is a good idea. Let's get started without delay."

Soon, Lin Yuhao and Zheng Zhibao's fleet surrounded these merchant ships from the left and right wings.

Lin Yuhao could see clearly through the binoculars that both parties to the transaction had seven ships.It's just that eight of them are being traded, and the other six are escorts.

Both sides are such a big battle, it is obvious that the goods they are trading must be very valuable.

According to the agreement, Lin Yuhao and Zheng Zhibao's warship.

At the same time, bombard the opponent's escort warship with Type [-] mortars, and then swarm up and surround the opponent's merchant ship.

In fact, the other party has already discovered that something is wrong, but is still hesitating.

Because the mortar has a short range, it is impossible to avoid the observation post on the opposing escort ship.

But because these escort warships hesitated, these escort warships had no chance to fire back.

The warships of Lin Yuhao and Zheng Zhibao attacked almost simultaneously.

In a short period of time, more than 30 mortar shells covered the past.

In just one round of shelling, the opponent's escort warship was completely annihilated.

After clearing the obstacles, the fleet of Lin Yuhao and Zheng Zhibao immediately leaned up.It quickly surrounded the opponent and took control of the opponent's eight merchant ships.

Lin Yuhao and Zheng Zhibao met the principals of both sides of the transaction on board the Shenyang.

One of them, a short Dongying man in a kimono, said angrily in broken Chinese: "Who are you? You are so courageous! Do you know who I am?"

When Zheng Zhibao heard this, he immediately asked in Japanese: "Who are you? Tell me your name. See if you can scare me, and I can tell you. I am from the Zheng family, and my name is Zheng Zhibao."

When the short Dongying man heard this, the person in front of him was Zheng Zhibao.I was still a little flustered in my heart, and immediately put on a smiling face and said: "I am Koyama Konosuke, and I am the vice president of Koyama Marine Trade Co., Ltd. I belong to the Maori family of Difan in Changzhou. This time I went to sea to complete the Maori family. The task given by the family."

When he heard that the other party was from the Maoli family, Zheng Zhibao said seriously: "Oh, you are working for the Maoli family!"

Konosuke Koyama immediately smiled and replied: "Yes, yes. I have also admired the Zheng family's name for a long time, but I don't know why you attacked our legal caravan this time."

Zheng Zhibao did not answer this question.Instead, he waited for Lin Yuhao to ask questions, because there was still one person who did not speak.

Lin Yuhao looked at the six-foot-tall, yellow-faced man in his 40s.Judging from his attire, he should be a wealthy businessman in Daming.

Therefore, Lin Yuhao also asked, "Who are you? What is the product of this transaction?"

The yellow-faced man said arrogantly: "I'm from the Cao family in Zhejiang. The goods I'm trading this time are: fine salt, Yulin Fragrant Baijiu, and a dressing mirror."

After hearing what the yellow-faced man said, Lin Yuhao was speechless for a while.

What's the situation when I go here, the things they sell are all made by themselves.

Forget about the rainforest liquor and the dressing mirror, as for the fine salt.That was something that the Ming Dynasty ordered to prohibit foreign sales, and it actually appeared in the list of trading items.

Lin Yuhao understood because of his own whim.The domestic smuggling ship was seized, and it seems that the harvest is not small!
Thinking of this, Lin Yuhao said leisurely: "In the 11th year of the apocalypse, the holy majesty made a decree to list fine salt as a forbidden item and prohibit the sale of it to the outside world. But you are so bold. You ignore the ban and openly sell fine salt. "

The man surnamed Cao said disdainfully: "Oh, listen to your tone. It seems that you also know my officials in Ming Dynasty, so you must know. The chief minister of Zhejiang Province joined the government, Cao Changxing, Mr. Cao."

"Lord Cao, he is the second master of my family. Our Cao family's business of selling fine salt was approved by his old man."

When Lin Yuhao heard this, he laughed immediately: "Hahaha, do you think that Mr. Cao of yours can scare me, make my hands and feet feel cold, and my head be sweaty!"

"You think highly of your lord too, I can say that. I am a disciple of the Son of Heaven, the Marquis of Liaodong Jing and Liao."

When the man surnamed Cao heard Lin Yuhao's words, he was so shocked that he couldn't speak.

No one in the entire Ming Dynasty knew who Lin Yuhao was.That is the celebrity in front of the Holy Majesty, the God of War in Liaodong, and the newly promoted Marquis of Jingliao.

He never expected that he would meet Marquis Jingliao here.As an adult, I really can't scare others.

Thinking of this, the man surnamed Cao immediately changed his face.Kneeling and saluting humbly, he said: "I don't know if Lord Jingliao is here, but little Cao Yan is in charge of the Cao family. It was a small nonsense just now, please forgive me, Lord Hou."

Lin Yuhao looked at Cao Yan with a contemptuous smile and said, "Hehe, be condescending before being respectful. Thinking about it makes people laugh, so Guan Cao should be excused."

Then after some other questions were interrogated, they were all taken down.

Lin Yuhao looked at Zheng Zhibao and said, "Brother Zheng, the matter is clear. I think so, take the boat and people away."

"Their goods, wine and dressing mirror belong to you. I will take away the fine salt as evidence of a crime. As for the 260 million taels of silver seized. You and I each have half, what do you think?"

Zheng Zhibao was very satisfied with Lin Yuhao's assignment: "Okay, just do as you say, Mr. Lin. Besides, regarding the handling of people. Don't worry, Mr. Lin, no one has seen them."

The meaning of Zheng Zhibao's words is obvious, that is, it is impossible for these people to live to see the moon tonight.

Lin Yuhao had no objection to this.Because there is a saying: Only those who have died can better keep secrets.
