    "Shopkeeper, what goods are available in the exchange now?" Fang Xian asked straight to the point, obviously not caring about the shopkeeper's mood.

    The shopkeeper looked a little ashamed: "Admiral, this place only produces [rice], but the quantity is acceptable. We can sell 35 warehouses now. If the Admiral is willing to make commercial investment, I think we can develop it without too much money."  New cargo.¡±

    "I have already made an investment with the governor, and he will give you some later." Fang Xian casually called a few more sailors, "Shopkeeper, please take them to the exchange, I want to buy a warehouse full of goods.  "

    The shopkeeper felt mixed emotions at this time. He was happy that these goods could finally be sold to make money, but he was worried that the admiral didn't seem to have any intention of investing.

    "Okay, 25 warehouses [meters], a total of 13121 gold coins."

    Yu Yan was not here, so Fang Xian just had to transfer the gold coins himself. Seeing that the shopkeeper was a little frustrated, he advised him casually: "Shopkeeper, the Fang family navy plans to develop in Southeast Asia for a long time. Once we have established a foothold here, we will definitely do it."  Please rest assured, shopkeeper, for additional investment.¡±

    "Oh? Develop here?" The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, but it was right to think about it. If it was an ocean-going business, this fleet could bring the goods to Europe and then sell them. There was no need to pay bribes in such a small place.

    The shopkeeper had been hoping for the stars and the moon, hoping that Kuhn or Preila would go north to develop and bring vitality to this small port. However, the Portuguese and the Dutch were obviously only interested in the big cities on the other side of the Strait of Malacca, and  There is no intention to invest and expand here.

    I didn¡¯t expect it to take so long.  A Chinese businessman actually came.

    The shopkeeper made up his mind in an instant - decisively hug his thigh.

    "Admiral, please allow me to ask one more question." The shopkeeper then showed a shrewd look in his eyes, "Where do you plan to stay next?"

    "Is there any need to ask? Where there is no one to settle down, I don't want to collide with other forces for the time being."

    The shopkeeper's eyes lit up: "What a great admiral. If you can revive the business in Indochina, everyone will thank you."

    ¡°This¡­ is not that great, it¡¯s just about making money.¡±

    "Admiral, you are humble." The shopkeeper decisively took out an envelope from his arms.  "Please take this with you."

    "This is?"

    "It's a letter of introduction, Lord Admiral." The shopkeeper smiled.  "The southern port of Brunei can be used. You submit this to the local governor and he will be happy to give you some share of the port."

    "Can it be used elsewhere?"

    ""

    "Just kidding." Fang Xian laughed.  "Brunei, right? We'll go right away after the sailors have rested."

    "Looking forward to your return!" The shopkeeper was very excited and revealed some news, "Although [rice] is not a valuable commodity, Brunei has no output. I think the price of a warehouse of rice will go up.  Doubling it is not a problem, and then the admiral can sell the local pepper back, Jiadin needs it very much."

    "Thank you, shopkeeper Twenty-Three, for reminding me, I will be back."

    After getting the goods.  Fang Xian then continued to give the sailors a break, and at the same time asked Zhang Dashun to take Dalba around to see them.

    He himself pulled Yuyan into the hotel

    ??This, the hotel is a normal place. This lonely man and widow were just discussing some strategies in the hotel.  Just get some information and make some plans, how could something strange happen?

    In order to allow the sailors to replenish their energy, Fang Xian directly chose to rest for 10 days after the girls had enough fun, and the time was advanced in units of days.  Fly by.

    During this period, some intelligence on Southeast Asia was also collected.

    Kun and Preila are still immersed in making money, accumulating capital, and wandering between several major ports in the south. At this time, Kun has three fleets and Preila has two. Whether it is combat capability or profitability, the Netherlands  People are all about stability.

    After estimation, Kuhn¡¯s assets should be more than 7 million gold coins, and Preyla¡¯s is at least 4 million. The big chaebol and the big fleet have a strong foundation.

    In addition, there is something called [power value], which probably reflects the occupancy of the power in the sea area.  In this aspect, the two sides are on par, both hovering around 700. As for the Fang family navy relying on the existence of Ji Aden, it is a decent 45, with a deposit of 70,000

    But these are nothing to be afraid of. What kind of headwind game has I never fought? [Koei] games are famous for their low-energy NPCs. If you don¡¯t know, Momo Wushuang, Taige Pension

    Just like that, a big fleet pulled countless rice out of the port, and the next stop was Brunei.

    This time everyone was familiar with it, the wind was going in the right direction, the sail was fully open, and onlyOn the 7th, we followed the route and arrived at the port called Brunei on the southeastern mainland.

    After getting off the ship, Fang Xian discovered that the local customs and customs were all nonsense. The whole of Southeast Asia was a template. It was just a matter of changing the names of the characters and using them directly!

    This time Fang Xian saved the trouble and entered the Governor's Mansion to chat directly.

    "Hello, Governor Twenty-Four, this is a letter of introduction from Shopkeeper Twenty-Third."

    "Oh? It turns out that I was introduced by Twenty-Three. No wonder you are so kind. I will give you 5% of the share."

    "Okay thank you bye."

    Fang Xian was not in the mood to talk nonsense with Twenty-Four anymore, so he rushed directly to the exchange, spread his wealth twice and fully invested, increasing the share of the port to 45%, then selling rice at 1102 and buying pepper at 302.

    ¡°After such a trip, you can only earn tens of thousands of gold coins, and there is no skill at all.  But there is nothing he can do about it. The Golden Route is too far away from him. Originally, trade in East Asia was good, but it has offended the powerful Fujian navy. It is better to just do agricultural products here

    After resting in Brunei, he was not in a hurry to return to Jiading. After all, buying and selling goods will affect prices. Frequently purchasing a commodity at a port will increase the purchase price. Similarly, frequent dumping of a product will increase the purchase price.  This will lower the selling price, operate in a circle within a reasonable range, and give the market time to balance itself is the long-term solution.

    ??Furthermore, this is Southeast Asia, not like Europe. We still have to run around and bring business to life before talking about big deals.

    Therefore, Admiral Fang set the third destination as Manila in the northeastern corner of Southeast Asian waters.

    Going out to sea again, Fang Xian speeds up the time, leaves the steering and other matters to Zhang Dashun, and prepares to go out and land. A day's sailing only takes a few seconds.

    He silently counted a few numbers in his mind, then stood on the deck and looked at Su Mei at the observation deck, waiting for her to report that she had discovered a lump of yellow granular city.

    As expected, Su Mei fiddled with the telescope and shouted: "Godfather!"

    "Don't be excited, it's not the first time. It's faster than expected."

    "No, no it's a pirate!! The strange square flag! When we docked in Brunei, someone said it was a big pirate!" Su Mei's expression was not one of surprise at all, but excitement, the kind of feeling that the world would not be in chaos.  excited, "Daddy, let's go over and fight!"

    "" Fang Xian's face twitched, "Don't make trouble, there is a pirate in such an honest place in Southeast Asia."

    "Really! They have already sailed sideways to prepare their cannons."

    At the same time, a message pops up, the low-quality image is converted to high-definition, and the battle scene is entered.

    ¡¾Start a battle with the pirate Saeki.  ¡¿

    "What's going to start a war!" Fang Xian hurriedly ran to the side of the boat to take a look. Sure enough, there was a small boat not far away, teetering precariously in the waves.

    Fang Xian rushed to the observation deck and asked, "Daughter, how many ships are there across the way?"

    "One ship!"

    "This" Fang Xian was speechless. Although the distance was still far away, based on the number of masts on the opponent's ship, he could probably determine that the ship was not very good. It was probably an ordinary two-masted delta, or even a medium-sized Chinese sailboat.  Not as good as a boat.

    "You dare to be a pirate! How confident this person must be!" Fang Xian shook his head and roughly recalled a person like Saeki.

    It seems that in the enhanced version, you can choose another protagonist, a Japanese man, a guy who takes revenge as his mission.  It seems that other characters will encounter him in this sea area and be "forced" to kill him.

    Dealing with such a stupid guy, Fang Xian didn't bother to talk nonsense. He changed the subject and shouted to the sailors: "Young men! Change your clothes and become a pirate!!"

    "Fuck you! Boss!"

    A group of honest guys suddenly became vicious again.

    "The gunners are in position! The Fifth Ship Branch will blast them to pieces!"

    "Okay boss!!" An old sailor responded immediately, and then came back in a circle, "But boss! All our cannons have been sold, and the gun warehouse is now filled with rice?"

    "This." Fang Xian then realized that he was a Confucian businessman. He changed roles very quickly and said, "Let's go, show the white flag representing peace, let's go negotiate!"

    ¡°¡­¡­¡­¡­¡±

    The trick of lighting up the white flag didn't seem to work very well. The artillery shells from Saeki's side were still coming one after another. However, there were only two cannons and one ship on the opposite side. The Fang family's fleet was basically close to the opposite side without being hit.

    After squirming for so long, the flagships of both sides have basically connected, and the captains of both sides can clearly see each other.

    There is a Japanese man with long hair and a square face on the opposite boat. He is wearing a green robe and has melancholy eyes.Looking at this side fiercely.

    Saeki¡¯s style proves that it is difficult to perfectly combine beauty and domineering, and in the end he created a fat double-eyelid monster.

    The cannonballs on the boat opposite seemed to have been fired, so Fang Xian was not in a hurry. He bowed from a distance and said, "My friend, are you mistaken? Do we have any grudge?"

    The handsome and domineering man immediately shouted: "I, Xingtaro, specializes in punishing those unscrupulous businessmen. That's right, I'm beating you, Fang Xian!"

    "Well, the boat is nice, worthy of admiration and commendable for courage."

    "What did you say?"

    "No" Fang Xian asked again, "Why are you beating me? I am in the agricultural product business and let the villagers have enough to eat. Is there a problem with that?"

    "Humph, don't think I don't know!" Saeki said reluctantly, "On the surface you are an agricultural product merchant, but in fact, you are engaged in human trafficking!!!"

    ""

    "No need to argue anymore! They are right behind you!"

    Fang Xian turned around and saw a few ladies just leaving the warehouse.

    Ling'er: "It's so noisy, what are you doing?"

    Yueru: "Is there a fight? Dalba, go find a hemp rope for your master's wife!"

    Yu Yan: "" (To be continued)
