: Three hundred and thirty-eight south of thunder (19)

The warm wind bounced, and the front waterway turned an arc to enter the inland waterway of the huge city. The rapids of the waterway began to slow down here. Lisbon’s Toben is the estuary of the three major river channels in the south of Gangfei. It has been continuous for several years. After the expansion, this huge city with a surface area of ​​more than fifty miles was more than five or six times larger than the original scale. Every time the city expanded, the current river channel was included, so it was formed in Lisbon. The city scale of the coexistence of the inland waterway and the city streets, the fat man stood at the bow of the imperial bank's clipper, watching a small clipper coming out of the port not far away, and signaled that this was also an imperial bank As the hull approached, a slight figure underneath his feet shook his face, and a pretty figure with a shawl on her face and a colorful dress came down from above.
Tiernerante, standing behind the fat man, bowed his head and chose to avoid
Seeing this woman, Tirnarant had already foreseen that the torrential rain in Lisbon was coming. Dark Rose, Queen of Commerce, head of the headquarters of the Imperial Bank. At first, he used the means to sit on the thirteenth deacon of the Imperial Business Alliance, although he was Lisbon. Chief Administrative Officer, but in fact, this uncrowned queen, who holds the empire’s business lifeline in one hand, is the real family member of the Empire in Lisbon.
After inquiring about the fake Caterina, the other party admitted that the black hand behind the scenes was the Blue Chamber of Commerce, one of the large chambers of commerce in Lisbon, and after learning that the big chambers of commerce were going to intercept themselves, Anthea’s pretty face became quite It's awkward, although I kept silent about what I was going to do in Lisbon, I kept myself in the cabin for two days.
"I have sent some secret investigations to those chambers of commerce. It was indeed a shipment of Miss Brant Bonnie. This is a list of those goods. This thing is done secretly. The other party should not know yet. I’m checking the shipment.
Sokutus Stellar waved his hand at the captain of the Clippers, and let him go down first.
She came in front of the fat man and reached out a hand to take out a document and handed it to the fat man. He said angrily, "I just didn't expect these chambers of commerce to be so bold that they wanted to kill Miss Bonnie. Do you need me to clean them up? This happened on the ship of Imperial Bank. If the person of Miss Bonnie suddenly died on the ship, I am afraid that Imperial Bank would jump into the sea."
"This is the shipment?" The fat man glanced over the list of goods. It wasn't too serious. There was one or two or it touched the imperial order, but the quantity was not large. The problem may be the huge amount of iron. Mine, although it is not something that can not be sold, but Brant Bonnie’s just non-Northern Army should not be lacking iron ore, so Brant Bonnie bought such a large batch during the Empire Annual Conference What does the iron ore do, or only ask Ansia to know it!
"The subordinate suspected that these chambers of commerce wanted to use this as a threat, and asked Miss Brandt Bonnie to guarantee their monopoly interest on the Central Asian business road. After being rejected, they chose to withhold the goods." Stella is worthy of being the emperor of Lisbon, and he is very informed about the major chambers of commerce in Lisbon, and he is also very knowledgeable about the nature of these businessmen. Almost just a guess, he is quite close to the truth.
"Sally, woman, have you heard of it? ‘Fat man crumpled the list in his hand, threw it into the sea, looked at the pier ahead, and asked with a condensed voice.
"A representative of the smuggling force has some fame in Lisbon. His Majesty asked what this woman does?’
Sokutus Delane’s face was slightly astonished. In her identity, a woman like Charlene was just a ants. Although the smugglers in Lisbon had some influence, they were definitely not in the eyes of her business queen. Only one sentence of her is needed, and these smuggling forces will be immediately cleared and cleaned in Lisbon.
"She has someone I want to see, find him out!"
The fat man raised his head and looked at the front with some consternation. I saw that a merchant ship was coming from the front pier towards this side. It turned out to be a merchant ship in the Central Abyss area, which was different from the jib and round sails in the Obaro area. On the mast, there are patches of four-corner sails, and the flag flying above is actually a mark of the Southern Song nationality. Looking at this Central-Arabic merchant ship getting closer and closer, it has been stopped steadily only a few meters in front, a crisp The female voice came over. "Will Miss Ansia be on board?"
The fat man looked at him, and he saw a group of six or seven beautiful women in Southern Song nationality costumes appearing on the opposite ship’s bow. They wore extremely beautiful colored dresses in the southern mountains of Central Biya, with gorgeous colors and the most beautiful colors. What is striking is that the two sleeves of the small-neck oblique-placket dress are made of red, yellow, green, purple, and blue fabrics, and the hem is decorated with gemstones.
This kind of mountain folk gown is covered with purple and dark blue inlaid shoulders. A long ribbon is tied around the waist, and the ends of the ribbon are embroidered into a black pattern with a coiled embroidery method. The thin waist is tied with a red snare drum, standing there, in a gorgeous place, resembling the colorful clouds in the sky, turning into a beautiful and moving The beautiful women appeared in the world, one of them was only slightly taller, the legs were particularly long, the smile was sweeter, but somehow it could make people have a deep feeling of glamorous, and it was this woman who was asking the other party. It was quite surprised to see a young Central Asian black-haired young man standing on the boat, and his beautiful face was slightly stunned.
"Southern Song nationality, iron ore..."
The corner of the fat man's mouth was raised, and he probably guessed the reason why Brant Bonnie bought a large amount of iron ore. Although southern Centralbia is known as a hundred thousand mountains, high-quality iron ore capable of forging weapons is scarce. Biya Chaotang has many restrictions. Among the hundreds of thousands of southern mountain troops, only the 20,000 mountain ghosts of the Song nationality are equipped with all-iron weapons and armor. Most of the mountain troops are only cane armor.
Now the destruction of the Central Church in China is on the verge, and the Dragon Family of Southwest China is also struggling, waiting for the destruction of the Central Church in Guangbian from the moment that the Central Church is destroyed. After being defeated by the Dragon family, the mountain people’s rebellion broke out under the encouragement of the Dragon family. Now that the vitality has not been restored, let’s say that even the weapons obtained after entering the main court were mostly lost in the southwest of the Dragon family. Buying large quantities of iron ore from the empire side is the only way to go back. Without iron ore, it is impossible to restore the vitality of the south, let alone after the collapse of the Central Church in China, to compete with the southwest dragon family fighting for war. The kingship of Asia!
The next home of this cargo turned out to be the Southern Song nationality!
Fatty and Sokotosdalen looked at each other, and sighed inside. This is no wonder. No wonder that Brant Bonnie was detained for this batch of goods. A silver wing guard came to discuss!
"I don't know if Miss Athea is on the boat?" The woman of the Southern Song ethnic group reluctantly tried again in a more authentic imperial language. It can be seen that the woman's imperial language should be a short time The internal assault learns, with a strong sense of gracefulness that is unique to the southern women, if you don’t pay attention, you may not be able to hear clearly.
"I knew it. I couldn't understand it at all. I knew I wouldn't rush to come to the empire." The Song woman gritted her teeth and complained in Chinese language.
"Miss Ansia was a little unwell and was resting inside, and I was asked to call her here." The fat man smiled at the corner of his mouth, and spoke a full-spoken Central Biya language, which made the opposite Song woman show a certain amount of consternation. Then a cheer came out, "Are you from Central Biya? That's really good. Are you familiar with the imperial language? To be honest, my imperial language was learned when I came. If you are willing to be an interpreter for me, I can A commission for you will definitely satisfy you. "The woman's voice is delicate and sweet, with an attractive magnetism. Even if the fat man is absent, I want to hear her say two more words. Plus her color dress flutters in the wind, like a beautiful picture in front of her
The fat man was slightly stunned. He didn’t expect that he could be hired as a translator. He said to the woman angrily and funny. "I am a person who is very expensive as a translator, because I not only know Central Asian, Imperial, but also There are several languages ​​in the countries of Southern Europe and Barrow, and even the languages ​​of your northern grasslands in Central Biya, you know some. You Biya people don’t mean a penny or a penny. How much do you think of a commodity like mine? "
"Aren't you a Central Biya?"
The Song women on the opposite side also seem to hear some
"Did I say that I'm from Central Biya?" The fat man laughed with a smile.
The Song ethnic woman was embarrassed, hesitated, and respectfully performed an imperial ritual toward the fat man, only to apologize and said, "I was in a hurry just last time, it was so rude, I didn't mean to insult you , It’s just that I really need a guide who is familiar with the Central Afrikaans and Imperial languages.
"Is this lady Miss Song Qian from the south of Central Biya? If so, I can arrange a guide who is familiar with both languages."
Sokutus Delan, beside the fat man, said clearly that she could see that the emperor had a good impression of the Song woman. During this time, she also heard about a song called Song Qian from the southern Song ethnic group in Centralbia. When the family members came to Lisbon, they didn’t have any business activities, so they didn’t care too much. Now I guess a few points. There is no doubt that this Song Qian is waiting for the iron ore that Brant Bonnie bought from Dijing. However, the iron ore was arrested by several monopolistic chambers of commerce. With the power of Song Qian, how could it shake those high-ranking merchants?
"I am Song Qian of the Song tribe!"
A pair of beautiful women from the Song ethnic group immediately looked at Sokotus Stellar, only to realize that they just looked away
I thought this was the maid of the dark-haired young man, but now it seems that this is not the case at all. Although the woman in black skirt in front of her face is frosted, but she has a very good figure, a long skirt is more gorgeous , But that kind of gorgeousness gives people an aggressive feeling. Originally, this woman wasn’t very conspicuous standing behind the black-haired young man, but now standing out, it immediately makes people feel a rushing pressure, Song Qian self-confessed that she only felt this one-handed atmosphere from her uncle, Song Que, the head of the Song clan, but her uncle was the head of the Song clan, and he even held the future head of the entire southern mountain. This time it was To strive for the owl of the king of China,
And in front of me is just a woman! But this woman's words gave Song Qian a natural trust. It seemed that the other party's words didn't need to be doubted at all. With a little hesitation, Song Qian saluted Sokutus Delan slightly. "Now our biggest The difficulty is because of the language barrier, the other party refused to let us land on the grounds that we were a Central Asian ship, possibly a smuggled ship. We have been here for more than ten days."
"Zhongbian ship banned from landing?"
The fat man glanced at Sokotus Stellan next to him. Although the smuggling was a matter for the Lisbon Government Office, without Sokotus Stellar’s ​​approval, it was impossible for the Lisbon Office to take all the commercial ships from the Central Asian side. All restrictions on landing, the first response to this order, the fat man thought of the few major monopolies that monopolized the Central-Arabic route would retaliate against the Yelu family
"Absolutely not. Some time ago, several chambers of commerce that were mainly responsible for China-Biasia trade did indeed request imperial banks to crack down on smuggling ships. The imperial bank actually issued an order for the Lisbon Chamber of Commerce to temporarily ban the boarding of China-Biabia ships. But the order was lifted fifteen days ago. Who stopped you from landing?" Socutus' discolored face changed, and he seemed to think of something, his fingers clenched.
"The ban on landing on the Chinese ship has been lifted, and you can go on board as normal!" Sokotus Delan replied
"We also heard that it was lifted~EbookFREE.me~, but as long as we want to disembark, we will be blocked on the dock!" Song Qian said angrily.
"There is still such a thing!" Sokotus Delan looked stunned, and his face was like a layer of frost. These chambers of commerce were really abominable, no doubt, because Song Qian's empire The language is too poor, and I don’t know that this order has been lifted, so that it was deliberately hung on the dock by several major chambers of commerce. Even if I think about it, I will be blocked.
Anyway, Song Qian couldn't speak the language, and no one could claim it, but the other party only needed to make sure that Song Qian was a smuggling ship, and the wharf side would not control
If it is not encountered today, I don't know how long it should be!
These big chambers of commerce that have vested interests in the trade between China and Afghanistan obviously use all means to block the possibility of other chambers of commerce. This kind of means is not uncommon in commercial competition. She has been in the business alliance for several years and has not seen anything. It’s just that sometimes I don’t bother to pay attention to it. It’s just that the conspiracy involved her in Sokotus Stellar. Don’t blame her for being ruthless to these chambers of commerce!
"Embarrassed Your Majesty, it seems that some people really think that Lisbono is lawless. Weeds are too prosperous, which affects His Majesty's mood. Please allow me to deal with it first."
