    Ding Yunyi listened completely entranced.

    Colony, the first real colony in the history of the Ming Dynasty was actually born in his own hands!

    These loyal and brave subordinates, these capable subordinates.  They have never let themselves downimmediately select 200 soldiers and use four ships to reinforce Wumingah, Voyage Island.  "Ding Yunyi made an immediate decision, and then asked: "Can you still remember the road to Yuanhang Island?  "

    "Yes!" Chen Dong replied without hesitation: "I have drawn a detailed navigation chart, and I will select veterans from the voyage fleet to take the brothers there."

    Ding Yunyi nodded with satisfaction: "This voyage has yielded a lot. Not only has it gained a lot of trade profits, opened up new routes, but also gained colonies. I think the voyage to the island is just the beginning. In the future, we can still   Before he finished speaking, Long Zhantian hurriedly walked in: "Headquarters, Zheng Zhifeng wants to head the town immediately. Judging from his appearance, he seems to be very angry!  "

    "Oh?" Ding Yunyi frowned: "Chen Dong, Sun Xiyu, you guys take a rest for a while. I have ordered the second voyage fleet to be organized there. Our Taiwan Shipbuilding Factory has built many new merchant ships. At the same time, I have also  After purchasing a batch, the size of the fleet this time will be more than doubled from the previous one. You will have to worry about what kind of goods are needed. "

    "Yes." Chen Dong and Sun Xiyu stood up together and said.

    Ding Yunyi then said: "Please come in, Zheng Zhifeng."

    When Zheng Zhifeng came in, his face was gloomy.  When I met Ding Yunyi, I first followed the courtesy of my subordinates: "Congratulations to the general town for annihilating the bandits. I am late in congratulating you, so please forgive me for my sins."

    Hearing that he didn¡¯t mean what he said, Ding Yunyi smiled slightly and said, ¡°Third Master, you are too polite. Please sit down.¡±

    Zheng Zhifeng did not sit down: "As the commander-in-chief of Fujian, Zongzhen has all the power. We admire him. Although our Zheng family had some unpleasantness with Zongzhen, they have been resolved long ago. Besides, you and my eldest brother were officials in the same dynasty. We are together.  Fujian, why bother pushing each other so hard? Do we have to turn against each other? "

    Ding Yunyi was confused when he heard this: "Third Master, what does this mean?"

    "What do you mean?" Zheng Zhifeng sneered: "Don't you know what you mean by the headquarter? Three merchant ships. Thirty-three lives! Headquarters, we swallowed this breath. People died, and the goods were robbed.  If we are unlucky, please return the hijacked people to us What kind of merchant ship was robbed? Why are there still hostages? Ding Yunyi is so arrogant and domineering at sea.  Collecting protection fees, although the Zheng family's reputation has been suppressed to a certain extent by the emergence of Ding Yunyi and his Tiger Guards in recent years, who in the nearby waters is so bold as to rob the Zheng family's ship and kill the Zheng family's people?

    Although I know very well that sooner or later I will have a head-on battle with the Zheng family, it is definitely not now.

    "Third Master, I'm afraid there is some misunderstanding, right?" Ding Yunyi calmed down: "How can our Huben Guards navy do these piracy activities?"

    "Yeah, Huben Guards can't do that. But what about the pirate alliance in the main town?" Zheng Zhifeng kept sneering: "The main town has so many pirates, they are majestic. Although my Zheng family is not as good as the main town, but on the sea  After so many years of peace, who else would touch my Zheng family¡¯s merchant ship, except the head general?¡±

    "Damn it, did your Zheng family realize that it was me who robbed your ship and killed your people?" Ding Yunyi suddenly cursed.

    His sudden anger made Zheng Zhifeng have to be cautious.  After all, he is also the commander-in-chief of Fujian and the nominal boss of his eldest brother Zheng Zhilong. If he completely offended him, it would not be beneficial to the Zheng family.

    Ding Yunyi's tone slowed down: "Zheng Zhifeng, I never ordered to rob your Zheng family's ship, and my subordinates are not so courageous. As for those pirates First, I'm afraid they don't have the strength to do it.  Secondly, if it is really one of them who robbed the Zheng family's ship, I guarantee that you, the Zheng family, will be able to answer for it!"

    Zheng Zhifeng nodded slowly: "I will wait here for ten days, and for one year, I will wait for one year!"

    Ding Yunyi thought for a moment: "Master Zheng, I'd rather you explain to me what's going on."

    Zheng Zhifeng saw that he didn¡¯t look like he was acting, so he sighed and told what happened.

    It turns out that three ships of the Zheng family left Japan this time, fully loaded with goods. Shortly after leaving Japan, they mysteriously disappeared. No news was sent back to Quanzhou, as if these three ships had never left Japan.

    The Zheng family hurriedly dispatched a large number of fleets to search at sea, and finally found one of the boats. But what was shocking was that there were only thirty-three corpses on the boat.

    And then?The Zheng family insists that only Ding Yunyi did it. In addition to the fact that only Ding Yunyi has the power to move the Zheng family's ship at sea, there is another very important reason:

    The Zheng family found the weapons used by the Tiger Guards on the ship!

    Ding Yunyi laughed when he heard this: "Master Zheng, if it was really me who robbed the ship and killed the people, how could I be so stupid to throw the weapons on the ship? Am I afraid that the Zheng family won't know that I did it?"  ?"

    "That's exactly what we think." Zheng Zhifeng said: "The main town is always meticulous in its work and will not leave any loopholes for others to catch, so my eldest brother ordered me to come and inform the main town about this matter."

    When Ding Yunyi heard this, it didn't seem like he was praising himself, and he didn't care. He suddenly asked: "I see that Mr. Zheng doesn't care much about the three ships being robbed, but he is very nervous about the missing people and ships.  Does it seem like there¡¯s something hidden in it?¡±

    Zheng Zhifeng¡¯s expression changed slightly and she whispered, ¡°Please step aside, the general manager. I have a few words to say to the general manager alone.¡±

    Ding Yunyi nodded and asked his subordinates to leave first. Zheng Zhifeng then said: "Does the headquarter know who my eldest brother's wife is?"

    Of course Ding Yunyi knows it all too well.

    When Zheng Zhilong was in Japan, Jin Ye paid a visit to Tokugawa Hidetada, the former shogun who had retired, and asked him personally about China affairs.  I was so happy that I ordered him to be hosted at the Nagasaki Hotel and given generous gifts.  Zheng Zhilong was summoned by the shogunate, and the Japanese regarded him as a glorious and prominent figure. He was often visited by local dignitaries and was called "an old official".

    At that time, the Hirado Domain was the center of Japan¡¯s foreign trade, with merchant ships from all over the world gathering there.

    Because Zheng Zhilong is familiar with overseas affairs.  He was also good at diplomacy and was valued by the Japanese shogunate. After the initial summons, he "visited the families of feudal officials many times".  Later he moved to Hizen Kunihira.  He received favorable treatment from the local princes, the Matsuura clan. The Matsuura clan gave him land to build a new residence in Kawachiura Senrihama near Hirado, and introduced him to the marriage of Tagawa Matsu, the daughter of the Hirado clan's retainer Yu Huang.

    The Emperor Tianchuan Yu is the Emperor Weng Yu.  He is an expatriate from China who moved to Hirado, and is known as the Tagawa clan in Japan.  Tagawa Matsu was Japanese and was the adopted daughter of Emperor Weng Yu, so she was also called the Weng family.  Mr. Tagawa, seventeen years old, has a good nature.  The year after their marriage, it is said that while Tagawa Song was collecting shells at the beach, the fetus suddenly started to move and she had no time to return to the city. So with the help of her maid, she gave birth to Zheng Chenggong on a big rock.  It was his eldest son, Zheng Sen, who was born on the boulder in the riverside.  This stone is called the birth stone.  Later, a second son, Tagawa Nanaemon, was born.

    Ding Yunyi didn¡¯t know why he mentioned Zheng Zhilong¡¯s Japanese wife Tagawa Song.

    Zheng Zhifeng sighed: "I don't want to hide anything from the main town. On those three merchant ships, there were my eldest sister-in-law's biological sister, Tagawa Yuki, and my eldest brother's second son, Shichizaemon Ding Yunyi never expected that Zheng Zhilong's sister-in-law  Were you and your youngest son kidnapped?

    Zheng Zhifeng looked a little nervous: "Last year, when the general was in the Central Plains to suppress bandits. Because my eldest brother Taishan Weng Yihuang missed his daughter, he ordered his sister-in-law to take Shichizaemon back to Fuso. My sister-in-law stayed there for a month.  So he came back first. Emperor Weng Yi liked Nanzaemon, so he kept him and asked Tagawa Yuki to take him back to Quanzhou for a while. Who would have thought that he would come back with the three merchant ships this time.  Something happened. Right now, both Tagawa Yuki and Shichizaemon are uncertain about their lives. The eldest brother is very anxious, so this visit has another meaning. Even if this matter has nothing to do with the main town, he always asks the main town for help.  There are so many pirates in charge of the town, so there will always be some news Damn it, are you so begging for help? Ding Yunyi cursed in his heart, but Ding Yunyi also became a little curious.

    He had already issued an explicit order not to have a head-on conflict with the Zheng family. I understand that his subordinates and those in the pirate alliance would not disobey his orders, but who has the courage to rob Zheng Zhilong's ship and kill Zheng Zhilong's people?  , kidnapping Zheng Zhilong¡¯s sister-in-law and son?

    This is actually a bit weird.

    "Master Zheng, please live in Taiwan with peace of mind." Ding Yunyi said thoughtfully: "Now that I know about this matter, even if you don't come to beg me, I will always get to the bottom of it, and there will be news sooner or later!  "

    "Since the chief town agreed, I can rest assured. I just beg the chief town to hurry up, otherwise I will worry about them Zheng Zhifeng was much more polite than before, and thanked him again. Ding Yunyi asked Zheng Zhifeng to take a rest.  He also ordered people to recall Li Guo to Taiwan immediately, and he returned home full of worries.

    Those women who are new to Taiwan are already familiar with the place. They have a great time playing with Han Xiaoxiao and the others, and they even learned all about mahjong.

    Seeing Ding Yunyi coming back, the women just said hello and then devoted themselves to the mahjong battle without sleep or food.

    Ding Yunyi moved a stool casually and sat next to Liu Rushi. While watching them play cards, he asked: "Who do you think would kidnap a woman and a child?"

    ? ?Just an enemy.  Liu Rushi said without thinking.

    "Yes, the enemy" Although he felt that what he said was not said, Ding Yunyi still responded perfunctorily: "But what if the kidnapped person has a high position and has a large army, and ordinary people can't easily move it?"

    "Wait, touch." Gu Hengbo touched a card and said, "That must be someone with more power and a more powerful army than him."

    "Yes, yes" Ding Yunyi's brows knitted together.

    This is what worries me most.  Normal people would think that besides him, Ding Yunyi, who would have the courage and strength to do such a thing?  I'm afraid Zheng Zhilong doesn't say it on the face, but he thinks so in his heart

    Zheng Zhilong was finally afraid of himself and did not dare to openly raise troops to question the charges. Otherwise, Taiwan would probably have started a war by now.

    Seeing that Ding Yunyi was worried, the girls stopped playing cards. Gu Hengbo asked, "Why, isn't there someone in Taiwan whose wife and children were kidnapped?"

    "It would be easier if it came from Taiwan" Ding Yunyi smiled bitterly: "Do you know who it is? It's Zheng Zhilong's sister-in-law and youngest son. Damn it, I don't know who ate the heart of a bear and the courage of a leopard.  , actually kidnapped them."

    Han Xiaoxiao was far more familiar with the situation in Fujian than the other women. He immediately said, "This is going to be troublesome."

    Gu Hengbo and the others didn't know what was going on. Han Xiaoxiao frowned and said, "The Zheng family and my husband have always had conflicts, and they almost got into a fight a few times. The situation has gotten much better in the past two years, and there have been many contacts between the two places. Now suddenly  If something like this happens, I'm afraid my husband will be in trouble again."

    Li Xiangjun blinked his eyes and said: "Master Ding is Wu Liebo, how can he still be afraid of Zheng Zhilong? Besides, can the mighty Tiger Guards not be able to defeat the Zheng family?"

    "Uncle Wu Lie can only take charge of Taiwan and Penghu. The situation in Fujian is so complicated" Ding Yunyi smiled faintly: "In a real fight, I wouldn't be afraid of the Zheng family navy. Who should I be afraid of? But this is not the case.  Fight things that can be solved. Taiwan seems to be calm, but in fact there are many crises, including the Taixi people, Zhang Kentang, and Zheng Zhilong. It is the most unwise thing to fall out with the Zheng family at this time. I'm afraid someone will see through it.  Thisbut who has the courage?" Chen Yuanyuan was a little worried: "A few days ago, Sister Han and I were still saying that you have to fight everywhere, and there are so many new victims flocking to Taiwan, so you are so busy every day.  She didn't even have time to eat or sleep, and she looked like she was smiling all day without doing her job properly Speaking of the words, all the girls showed knowing smiles on their faces, and Chen Yuanyuan also pursed her lips and smiled: "But in fact, she has more things to take care of than anyone else.  He was more troubled than anyone else, and we women couldn't help him much. We were able to rest for a few days, but something like this happened again.  "

    "I was born to work hard." Ding Yunyi cursed bitterly: "If you let me catch this man, I will peel off his skin and beat his tendons. Whoever causes trouble for me will be punished."  If you don¡¯t let him feel better, he will be woken up by nightmares when he sleeps!¡±

    He was really angry at this moment in his heart. The current focus of Taiwan and Penghu is development, but there are people who don't want him to live a comfortable life, and will always find trouble for him at unexpected times.

    But the question is, who is the mastermind behind this?  Why do this?  In addition to sowing relations between Taiwan and Fujian, is there any other purpose?  Ding Yunyi has no clue at least for now.
