My Italian Chapter 98

After the typhoon, the South China Sea has returned to calm, and the sea is no longer turbulent. The fishermen in Pontianak also hurriedly prepared to go to the sea when the typhoon left. After all, they had been sheltering from the typhoon for a few days before. If they didn't go to the sea to fish quickly, in case of another typhoon, it would not make the whole family live in harmony with the wind. wind.

Song Asheng, like other fishermen, rowed his boat to get off the cage. The cages on the boat were piled up like a mountain. This is the result of his and his family's hard work these days.

"Blessed by Mother Mazu, there must be a big harvest this time. As long as I can raise enough money for Song Ge'er's medical treatment, I will definitely ask the three sacrifices to repay."

Of course, the three animals in Song Asheng's mouth are naturally the small three animals. He can't afford the big three animals of pigs, cattle and sheep. Only the gentlemen in the city can afford them. In addition to the need to buy pig heads, the fish can be caught by themselves, and there are two chickens in the family.

However, when he thought of the medicinal materials that Doctor Liu offered to give to his son Song Ge'er, Song Asheng had a sad expression on his face. They were all precious medicinal materials and needed several Dutch money, which was a bit difficult.

But when he thought of the Dutch devil's prestige in Pontianak, Song Asheng couldn't help but spit, it was all beasts.

Just as Song Asheng was thinking about his own thoughts, suddenly there was a commotion around him.

"Look, a ship is coming."

"It looks like a big warship."

"Could it be a Dutch warship?"

As soon as these words came out, all the fishing boats going out to sea immediately turned their heads and rushed back desperately. In recent years, the Dutch warships have been used to being domineering, causing countless injustices, and who is not afraid of it.

It's just that they didn't know that it wasn't the Dutch warship that arrived this time, but the Qing warship that got lost in the typhoon.

"Deng, why are these people so afraid of us?"

On the Zhiyuan ship, Leifer, who was the chief instructor of the Zhiyuan ship, put down the telescope in his hand, and opened his mouth to express his doubts to Deng Shichang, who was beside him. Leifer speaks English, because Deng Shichang can also speak English, so the communication between the two can only be done in English.

He remembered that when the Zhiyuan ship went everywhere, it was not only surrounded by thousands of people, but also in the British Singapore, and the welcome was also not small. Unexpectedly, after the typhoon deviates from the course, there is still such a situation, and judging from the clothes, it should be an overseas immigrant belonging to the Qing Dynasty.

"Maybe they regard us as other countries' warships."

Deng Shichang, who also put down his telescope, looked at the flagpole, and the dragon flag on it was gone. "Damn, I said how could this happen, and don't hurry up and raise the flag again."

"Sir, the wind broke the rope."

"Then pick it up soon."

Under Deng Shichang's scolding, the dragon flag of the warship was finally hung up.

After the flag was hung, the commotion of the fishermen in the distance gradually subsided.

As the Zhiyuan ship raised the dragon flag, the situation was reversed.

"Look, it's the imperial warship."

The sharp-eyed fishermen immediately found the dragon flag on the Zhiyuan ship and shouted.

"Yeah, could it be that the imperial court has sent troops?"

"The court finally remembered me waiting."

There was a lot of discussion on the fishing boats immediately, but a few fishing boats rushed to the shore immediately, and they needed to inform others of the news of the arrival of the imperial court.

After approaching the offshore, the Zhiyuan ship stopped. There is no port. The Zhiyuan ship has a deep draft and can only dock in the offshore water. However, in order to find out where they went, Deng Shichang and others boarded the transportation boat and were about to ask. Fishermen here.

Facing the officers and soldiers of the Zhiyuan who came ashore, the surrounding fishermen clung to the side.

Faced with this situation, Deng Shichang frowned, thought about it, and said to a fisherman. "Excuse me, where is this?"

It was Song Asheng who was being questioned by Deng Shichang. Facing Deng Guandai, who was wearing a top wearing a flower ling, Song Asheng shuddered for a while, but he still answered Deng Shichang's question.

"My lord, this is Pontianak."

Hearing Song Asheng's words, Deng Shichang opened his mouth to Lefer next to him. "It turns out that when we arrived in Pontianak, we really didn't expect to come here."

"Deng, I think we should meet the local boss. In addition, we need to add some vegetables and fruits. Many of the boats are broken."

Facing Deng Shichang's words, Lefer said the current needs of the warship. After the baptism of the typhoon, many vegetables and fruits on the warship are inedible. Although they are not far from their next destination, Hong Kong, it is not a bad thing to be prepared.

Obviously, Deng Shichang listened to Lefer's words, and he spoke directly to Song Asheng. "Can you introduce me to your patriarch or leader?"

Deng Shichang didn't even ask for this, Song Asheng immediately patted his chest to assure.

"Don't worry, my lord, if you know that someone from the heavens is coming, the patriarch will definitely greet them with gongs and drums."

"Don't be so grand, I just want to buy some supplies."

However, Song Asheng certainly couldn't hear Deng Shichang's words because he had already rushed to find the patriarch.

Without letting Deng Shichang and others wait for a long time, Song Asheng soon brought the patriarch over.

"Song Mingli, the old man, has seen the old man."

As soon as he saw Deng Shichang, the Song patriarch was ready to kneel down and salute.

"The Song Patriarch is very polite, and he must give this great gift."

Deng Shichang didn't let the patriarch Song salute successfully, so he stepped forward and caught him.

Song Patriarch is also a reasonable person. Seeing that Deng Shichang and others are unwilling to accept the big gift, it is not enough.

"I don't know about the angels of the motherland. If you need to use the old man for anything, we Songjia Village will definitely help you."

"It's nothing, mainly because we want to purchase a batch of fruits and vegetables for use on board."

Facing Deng Shichang's words, Patriarch Song flashed a trace of disappointment in his eyes, but he quickly covered it up.

"It's no problem, it's a trivial matter."

After speaking, he said to a young man who followed behind him. "Song San, go back to the village and ask everyone to prepare a batch of fruits and vegetables for the adults. Tell the adults that they must be fresh."

As his voice fell, the young man named Song San immediately trotted back all the way.

Although Patriarch Song concealed it well just now, Deng Shichang saw the worry in his eyes.

"Lao Zhang Song, I don't know what to worry about."

"It's nothing, since the warships of the motherland are here to purchase supplies, we dare not have to work for your lord."

Song Patriarch's secretive attitude made Deng Shichang curious.

"If the old man suffers, but it doesn't matter, I won't spread rumors~www.mtlnovel.com~ It's nothing, but the Dutch tried to occupy Pontianak, and Liu Tongzhi took the big guy to fight the Dutch. I thought this was sent by the imperial court to support me."

The Song Patriarch said Liu Tongzhi was the son of his predecessor Liu Shoushan. After Liu Shoushan died last year, the Dutch took advantage of the unstable situation in Fanglan and the outbreak of the Sino-French war, so they took the opportunity to try to bring it under their jurisdiction. In order to survive, the Republic of Fangland had reached an agreement with the Dutch and existed in a vassal-like mode. However, for this fertile land that the Chinese have worked so hard to develop, the Dutch have never given up their ambition to annex.

Song Patriarch's words left Deng Shichang speechless. Without the order of the imperial court, he could not have ordered fire on the Netherlands, although the Zhiyuan ship under his seat was stronger than any Dutch warship.

However, it is not Deng Shichang's style when he encounters such a thing, not doing it at all. After some consideration, he said to an officer beside him. "Zhiquan, you asked someone to collect the guns on the ship and bring them over."

That's right, although he doesn't have the right to fire, he still has some guns to express his attitude. (Warships have always been equipped with guns. At that time, hundreds of warships were the basic situation.)

"My lord, I'm afraid it will be difficult for Shangguan to do this."

"Listen to me, just say the typhoon lost."

After speaking, Deng Shichang looked at Leifer.

"No problem, I'll do the same for me. Soldiers should be the people."

Since both of them agree, things will be easy. So he took out nearly a hundred guns from the Zhiyuan ship and asked the Song patriarch to hand them over to Liu Tongzhi on his behalf.

Although Leifel concealed it, when he sent it to the country, he sent it as an anecdote.

So Carlo also knew about it.
