The richest man Yang Fei

"anything else?"

"This? Another one? Oh, there is another woman brought by Miyuki, and I don't know her."

"Hu Xuanlin, you always hide half of it like this and talk half of it. How can we have a pleasant chat?"

"Mr. Yang, I really have something to say, and there is absolutely no falsehood. Otherwise, I will die!" Hu Xuanlin swore to the sky.

Yang Fei said: "It's true that you didn't lie to me, but you didn't tell the truth either. What did you go to sea for?"

"I didn't do anything, I just played around." Hu Xuanlin replied crisply.

"Do you want to play star drawing?" Yang Fei asked in a deep voice.

"Ah? What astrology?" Hu Xuanlin blinked, pretending to be confused.

"Unexpectedly, very few people understand the star-stretching technique, and you know it too. I really underestimated you before!"

"Hey! What astrology! I know such a profound ancient art? I'm just playing around."

"Why did you run so far to play in the sea?"

"Because, Boss Zhou is curious, so I performed a show for him."

Yang Fei breathed out a smoke ring leisurely, and said, "Mice, do you have your knife with you?"

The mouse said, "Young Master Fei, I didn't bring a knife. But I did bring a rubber band."

Yang Fei said: "What's the use of rubber bands? Show one to Hu Xuanlin."

The mouse responded, like a magic trick, and pulled out a long and thin rubber band.

This is no ordinary rubber band, this is a special one.

He took out a pen, held both ends of the rubber band, and pulled it back and forth on the pen like a saw. After a few strokes, the pen turned into two pieces!

Hu Xuanlin's face changed greatly when he saw it, and the corner of his mouth was pulled: "Great! Really clever!"

Yang Fei said: "Is the pen made of steel?"

The mouse said, "Yes, Young Master Fei."

Yang Fei said: "If you pull this rubber band on a human finger, what will happen?"

The mouse said: "I don't know. I haven't tried it with human fingers. I only tried it on pig's feet. It can be cut faster than a chef."

Yang Fei said: "Mr. Hu, why don't you lend me your finger? Let the mouse try it?"

Hu Xuanlin yelled, quickly hid his hands behind his back, shook his head and said, "No, absolutely not. Mr. Yang, this is no joke! Fingers are flesh and blood, how can they compare with a pen?"

Yang Fei said: "Tell the truth, or a finger, which would you choose?"

Hu Xuanlin smiled wryly: "Mr. Yang, you are embarrassing me."

Yang Fei said: "Tell me, what are you doing?"

Hu Xuanlin glanced left and right, and said, "Mr. Yang, as for you, I can trust you, but there are some things I can only tell you alone."

Yang Fei waved his hand: "Mice, Ma Feng, you go out first."

Mouse whispered, "Young Master Fei?"

Yang Fei glanced at him.

The mouse replied, "Yes."

After they went out, Yang Fei asked Hu Xuanlin: "Can we talk now?"

Hu Xuanlin said: "Mr. Yang, it's okay to tell you, but you must not say that I told you! Otherwise, my little life may be lost."

"Tell me!" Yang Fei said, "What are you looking for with the compass and astrology?"

"Mr. Yang, you are a caring person. Since you know the art of drawing stars, you must also know what it is for."

"What is it for?" Yang Fei asked back.

"When the ancients sailed, they were used to determine the exact position."

"Oh, what about you? What do you do with it?"

"It is also used to determine the orientation."

"What direction are you sure?"

Hu Xuanlin looked embarrassed.

Yang Fei said: "It seems that you can't trust me?"

"How dare! How dare!" Hu Xuanlin said, "It's just that there is no word on this matter, and you may not believe me if I tell you."

"If you tell the truth, I will naturally believe you. If you dare to lie, it's up to you."

"Don't dare to lie, absolutely dare not lie." Hu Xuanlin shook his hands, then thought for a while, and said, "During the Ming Dynasty, our country had close exchanges with merchant ships from various countries. Zheng He went to the Western Ocean seven times and brought back countless rare treasures. precious."

"What are you talking about so far? Are you going to talk about the history of several days and nights?"

"No, not history. You'll know when I finish."

"Okay, tell me! Get to the point!"

"At that time, although our country's navigation technology was the best in the world, it was still very backward after all. It was difficult to cope with complicated weather conditions. Once, Zheng He's fleet encountered a ship on the sea during its return voyage. The hurricane, in which a great ship full of treasures was overturned by the waves and sank on the bottom of the sea."

"Oh?" Yang Fei heard some clues, "This kind of thing may happen. Well, you are looking for a sunken ship? But, what about a sunken ship hundreds of years ago! I'm afraid you may not even know whether it is true or not. , you just look for it based on a story? How is this different from finding a needle in a haystack?"

Hu Xuanlin said with a mysterious face: "Mr. Yang, this is not a story!"

Chapter 1569 Simple Historical Common Sense

Yang Fei raised his eyebrows and asked, "Isn't it a story?"

Hu Xuanlin said, "This is what Tang Jing told us."

"Who is Tang Jing?"

"It's the female collector. Miyuki knows it."

"Oh, her name is Tang Jing."

"Yes, her family's ancestors were specialized in seagoing ships. According to her, one generation of her ancestors followed Zheng He to the Western Seas and watched the sinking of the treasure ship with their own eyes."
