Liangying's ship stopped when it was about to approach. The herald had already issued an order to invite the envoy to the Shanghai division ship.

Tu Lingguang set up a table with chairs on the deck, and waited while sipping tea.Leading the soldiers to invite Liangying's envoy up, Tu Lingguang raised his eyes to look.

Standing behind Tu Lingguang, Lin Mingyu could see clearly at this moment.The Liangying man was dressed like a Japanese from the previous life, and the one in the bright and different clothes was only in his early twenties, with a beautiful and feminine appearance, quite girlish, and his face was white and smooth, obviously covered with powder of.

This person was surrounded and walked in the front. He should be the highest-ranking prince of Liangying, Sato Glory.

"I have met Lord General Shangguo." Sato Glory must have inquired about the identities of the people on board. Seeing that Tu Lingguang was wearing black clothes and black armor, and his aura was very heroic, he immediately stepped forward and bowed to him according to Dahong's etiquette.

After all, he was a prince, and he was also an envoy. It was quite humble to behave like this, especially since there was an indescribable charm on his face, which made people feel extremely awkward.

Tu Lingguang didn't respond, he still drank the tea in the cup, then stood up, and returned a salute as if he had just seen the person, and the salute was very perfunctory: "Master Sato, you are so polite. Now that you are on the ship, please follow us to the pier, the imperial court has arranged for an angel to receive you all."

Sato Glory speaks Chinese very well, but the subordinates around him don't seem to be very proficient.Hearing Tu Lingguang's words, Glory Sato was taken aback for a moment, and then murmured with the people around him.

Tu Lingguang twirled the jade wrench on his thumb, but didn't speak.

After a while, Sato Glory said with a smile: "We came from Liangyingyuan to pay tribute to the emperor, and brought a lot of tributes from Liangying, all of which were on board. We still need to hand them over to Your Majesty in person."

Tu Lingguang said: "You don't have to worry about this. Since it is a tribute, we will naturally arrange proper escorts, and these ships will also be taken care of by special personnel, so they must not be damaged."

The smile on Sato Glory's face faded slightly: "General, what do you mean by this? Could it be that your country looks down on us? This is a gift from my emperor to His Majesty the Emperor. We need to take care of the escort in person. This is the rule, the etiquette of the Shang Kingdom The state, and can't accommodate?"

"Hehe. Your country is very sincere." Tu Lingguang said meaningfully: "I don't know if there is a new ship made by Liangying Fang last year in this tribute?"

Liangying is an island country. The fishermen on the island depend on the sea for their livelihood. Although the standard of living is not very good, the upper bureaucracy is extremely luxurious.Although Liangying's shipbuilding level is not as good as Dahong's, he still has quite novel tricks.Last year, Liangying built a big boat, almost reaching the level of Dahong building boats. At that time, Liangying's businessmen boasted about it.When Liangying was on an envoy, the newly built large ship disappeared, but the old improved ship was repainted to make up for it. For those who are already familiar with Liangying's domestic situation, the unspeakable things inside are obvious.

Tu Lingguang's words that seemed to be mentioned inadvertently caused Sato Glory's heart to tremble. This time it can be said that he has a heavy responsibility. The life and death glory of the entire Sato family is tied to him. Hong Tianzi opened his face, the more low-key the better.Even though he was provoked by Tu Lingguang's attitude, he didn't dare to attack.

"The matter of the tribute is that my emperor has issued a letter of credence to His Majesty Shangguo. Even we cannot speculate arbitrarily. If General Tu wants to know, he will find out when he comes to Beijing with us in a few days. Don't delay the visit of Miansheng time."

Tu Lingguang glanced at the group of aliens with a smile, and said indifferently: "So, Mr. Sato agrees with my arrangement. Let's get on the boat."

As the ship docked at the pier, only the sound of gongs and drums could be heard endlessly.I also saw people on both sides of the strait crowded outside the tent and looking around curiously.Although it is just a wharf, there are also several magnificent buildings, unloading warehouses of various sizes, and many fishing boats and large cargo ships moored on the shore.

The envoys of Liangying opened their eyes wide, looking at the clothes of the people and the boats in the water, swallowing and spitting one by one.This is just an ordinary fisherman. Hearing that the people in the capital where Dahong is next to him are getting richer, they can hardly imagine how much wealth Dahong has.

Rich as oil, full of fat, full of gold.Glory Sato couldn't help but think of this saying that was said among the Sato family members who occasionally went to Dahong as a businessman.This strengthened his heart to achieve his goal.

Sato Glory originally wanted to stay at the pier for a while, so as to see the situation here more, but when he got ashore, he was led into the open hood to meet Lin Rui, Qiao Changbai, General Ge and others.The open hood is not only surrounded by cloth curtains, but also surrounded by a layer of guards with sharp guns, the common people are not easy to approach, and his sight is also blocked, so it is not easy to look around.

"The envoys came from afar. They were supposed to take a rest in Fujian Mansion before inviting them to pay tribute in Kyoto. However, there was enough time in Kyoto. Your Majesty told me to wait for Haosheng to receive the envoy after he heard the news of your country's tribute. Escort to the capital. Your order must not be violated, please let the envoys rest for a while before leaving."

Lin Rui first said some courteous words, looked at the little eyes of the Liangying people who were looking forward to moving into Fujian Mansion, and made a decision with a smile.

Glory Sato was taken aback for another moment, but tried hard to fight and said: "Master Lin, we are so dusty, I am afraid that our appearance is indecent, and it will pollute your eyes and ears. Why don't you rest here for a day, and then go to the capital after washing the wind and dust. To pay tribute is to show full respect to His Majesty of your country."

Lin Rui said: "It will take about ten days to go to the capital like this. The residences for the envoys have been prepared in the capital, and there must be leisure time for you to rest and recuperate before you meet the saint. But the Fujian government The mansion is simple and crude, so it’s inconvenient to stay for a long time." Speaking of this, he invited loudly: "Master Sato, you don’t have to be so restrained, even though you need etiquette, you have to show personal feelings. You are guests from afar, and Master Qiao has prepared a dust-cleaning banquet. Let's have a glass of wine before heading back to Beijing."

In this way, returning to Beijing on the same day is already a certainty, and it cannot be changed.No matter how much dissatisfaction Sato Glory has, he should not say more.Seeing that the surrounding guards were so tight, he just wanted to find an opportunity for someone to go out to inquire about the situation in Fujian Mansion, but he couldn't find a gap to take advantage of, so he had no choice but to drink with Lin Rui.

The guests and hosts of this dust-cleaning banquet had their own hearts and minds, and hurriedly finished eating and then hurried on the road.

Since Lin Rui arrived in Fujian, Lin Mingyu was ready to return to Beijing with him.Although the departure today is a bit hasty, it is not a big problem.

While everyone in Liangying was having a banquet, Lin Mingyu invited Song and Huang Ergong.Now that the Haimeng matter is on the rise, according to his plan, everything is under construction step by step.Song and Huang are experienced and steady in doing things, and with Tu Lingguang helping him to take care of them, they are not afraid that these two will develop side effects while he is not around.

Although the Qian family's shipping hasn't nodded yet, but it has already moved. Lin Mingyu believes that when he sees the benefits of the Haimeng and is forced by the situation, he will definitely join him.Chang's shipping has too much grievances with the Song family, and they can't do anything to win them over at the moment, so they have to put it aside.Fortunately, Shunchang Shipping has been seriously injured this time, and it may be difficult to recover in a short time.During this period, for both parties, it is a good time to consolidate their positions.

After entrusting the Haimeng with the next regulations, Lin Mingyu had a special meeting with Zhou Zhaoqing and Wu Dalang.These two were also flexible. After hearing Lin Mingyu's words, they immediately said, "Young master, don't worry, we are also keeping an eye on the matter of the Haimeng. The school is also stepping up improvements, but if there is any news, I will send a letter to let you know."

So nothing else.But when Tu Lingguang learned that Lin Mingyu was going to leave that day, he felt very sad.In the past few months, he and Lin Mingyu went in and out together, ate and lived in the same place, but it was much more lively with the companionship.Now that I am suddenly alone, I feel an indescribable loss in my heart.But he is also a stalwart man, even though he is reluctant to give up, he knows that he has been out for a long time, it is time to go home and say hello to his father.

Tu Lingguang also told Lin Mingyu to take care of his health and come back as soon as possible, so he packed his bags with him and sent him to the carriage.

When the motorcade stopped halfway, Lin Mingyu quietly got into Lin Rui's carriage, but when he saw him smile, he reached out and pointed to the short table inside the carriage, on which there were already placed candied fruit and other things, and there were even two small cups standing opposite each other.The two brothers looked at each other and smiled, and they went to Kyoto together.
