The sea in the middle of the night is forever silent and dark.

Wandering above the vast ocean made Zhang Mu look at the moon in the sky and sigh a lot.

I looked back at the direction of my hometown, and couldn't help but think that China has been at the forefront of the world for thousands of years.

The sacred world of the Song and Tang dynasties, how might it be?

However, more than three hundred years later, this country that once dominated the world for centuries was beaten up by various countries.

In fact, not only China, but also the powerful Egypt, India, and the Arab Empire were beaten up at that time.

The reason is that it has not caught up with the Age of Discovery.

If China participated in the Age of Discovery, what would history look like?

Zhang Mu couldn't help but start fantasizing.

But it seems very difficult to solve this problem now.

Fortunately, this was only the early Ming Dynasty, and the ban on the sea was not yet deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, but there was still a chance to turn it around.

However, Zhang Mu knew that it was not easy to accomplish this.

Now he is just a scumbag with only five combat power and has no influence on the court.

The emperor would never immediately abolish the national policies he had formulated after listening to a thirteen-year-old child's great principles.

However, Zhang Mu felt that he was still young and Zhu Yuanzhang was already old.

I went to Nanjing in the future and started doing this little by little. Even if he was a thousand-mile dam, as long as he had the spirit of Yugong moving mountains, he would dig a little today and a little tomorrow, and it would be better to dig him down.

If you can become a core figure in Nanjing in the future, it is not impossible to accomplish this.

As for what history will look like after changing history, Zhang Mucai was indifferent. He had already died once, and at worst he could die again. Anyway, it would be no loss.

At this time, two soldiers escorted the old butler to the dock.

Zhang Mu heard the footsteps behind him, turned around and looked at him, then smiled coldly, "Have you thought it through?"

"I really can't believe you, but the worst is just that. If I can let the Wen family live two more people, I'm willing to go with you. But I agreed that the people who trade with us will be pirates. I don't care about your life and death." The old housekeeper said without looking at Zhang Mu.

Zhang Mu turned around and said, "Okay, go and choose people. We'll leave right away."

At this moment, the soldiers detained the old housekeeper.

Zhang Mu knew that the old butler might not really help him, but it doesn't matter. People like the old butler are just an ant in his hands, so there is no need to fight against such a person.

After a while, Li Yunchang prepared to come out a large ship, and then came to Zhang Mu and said, "Muzhi, you can think about it again."

"Forget it, there is nothing to consider. This time it is either Wang Ming dies, or I dies." Zhang Mu smiled bitterly.

"Well. I have selected the people for you. Zhao Wu and the others have followed me for many years, and I feel at ease with them." Li Yunchang said.

"If I haven't come back yet at dawn, you won't have to wait for me." Zhang Mu smiled.

Li Yunchang was stunned, nodded slowly and said, "I understand."

The two of them looked at each other and smiled, and then they didn't say much.

After some preparation, Zhang Mu changed the boat and set out towards Nanlu Mountain.

There were more than 30 people on the ship that Zhang Mu had to offer, among which the old housekeeper of the Wen family also brought three friends, and the rest were all Li Yunchang's confidants.

The old housekeeper was listless, his long white hair was spreading, and there were a few bruises on his face, which looked very embarrassed.

I can't go there with the three old housekeepers.

The cabin was very stuffy, so Zhang Mu simply stood on the deck with his arms, listening to the ups and downs of the waves accompanied by the sea breeze, which was also pleasant.

But I felt a little uneasy and couldn't close my eyes.

The sailors brought on the boat were all elites of Taizhou navy. The old butler was familiar with the path. With his guidance, after about two hours, he could already see Nanlu Mountain.

Nanlu Mountain is an isolated island with a very small scale.

At first glance, it was pitch black.

Zhang Mu was a little nervous and held the railing tightly and asked, "Is this Nanlu Mountain? Where are the Japanese pirates who traded with you?"

"What are you anxious about?" the old butler said coldly, and shouted, "Go up."

As the ship got closer, we almost saw the full picture of Nanlu Mountain.

Sure enough, on the other side of Nanlu Mountain, I could see some fire lights faintly, but on the dark sea, I thought the stars were reflected in the sea.

Zhang Mu carefully identified that the fire was coming from the ship, and about seven or eight large ships were docked in Nanlu Mountain. Looking from a distance, he thought it was part of Nanlu Mountain.

"You get off the boat with me later." Zhang Mu threw down a sentence and turned around and said, "Put down the sampan."

The sailors were busy for a while, and Zhang Mu followed the old housekeeper off the big ship.

Zhao Wu held the old housekeeper hostage. After getting off the ship, Zhang Mu asked, "You guys are all connected like this?"

"Tell me quickly!" Zhao Wu drank.

"Don't worry, our ship is so big that the Japanese pirates have discovered it. Just wait here." The old butler said disdainfully.

Sure enough, in less than a quarter of an hour, I could see several torches from a distance.

"The Japanese pirates are here." Zhao Wu said nervously.

"Don't be nervous." Zhang Mu smiled faintly.

Sure enough, after the torches approached, someone heard a shout, "Is the Wen family's friend coming from the opposite side?"

"Is it a bald horse?" the old housekeeper replied.

Zhang Mu was quite surprised. He heard the words of Ma Tuzi on the opposite side, and he had no smell of Japanese pirates. He was clearly a Han man.

Sure enough, a dark-skinned and burly man came out of the forest. The strong man was definitely about 1.8 meters tall and strong. When he appeared in front of He Zhang Mu, he was like an iron tower.

However, this strong man's hairstyle is Mediterranean. His hair in the center has fallen out. He is surrounded by a circle of long hair that is washed and not covered with a bun. He is just spread behind him, which looks very funny.

He was wearing a short piece of clothing and opened his arms. When he saw the old housekeeper, he laughed and said, "Why are you, the old ghost? Where is your young master?"

When Zhang Mu saw him smile, his teeth in his mouth were dirty, and half of his front teeth were missing, which was exactly the virtue of a foreign medieval sailor.

"Our young master was feeling uncomfortable when he came out this time. He was not sleeping on the big boat behind him. I'll take a look first, afraid that he would encounter what happened last time." The old butler smiled.

"Those people from the Nansha Gang have been punished by me. Don't worry, that thing will never happen again." Ma Tuzi said, patting his chest.

"That's the best. Last time I scared my old man's soul." The old housekeeper said with lingering fear.
