"Hehehe..." Luo Qing and Luo Sheng laughed dryly together.

Luo Xin shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Where do I have that thought now?"

Hearing Luo Xin's words, the two of them looked aloof, and Luo Qing lowered his voice and said:

"Brother, is it really that harsh?"

Luo Xin pondered for a moment and said, "It's not that serious, but you should not take it lightly. Be prepared at all times. How many of your two men are confidants?"

Luo Qing and Luo Xin looked at each other, and Luo Qing whispered: "One thousand, I can pull one thousand people away."

"Okay!" Luo Xin was excited and said, "With these thousand people, at least you two can be safe."

"But..." Luo Qing frowned and said, "We are very far away from the grassland. If something happens, it will be difficult for us to go to the grassland."

Luo Xin nodded and his brows frowned deeply. Suddenly, his heart moved and he remembered a big island.

"Taiwan!"

At this time, Taiwan Island should have not been discovered, but was discovered, probably some pirates. If Taiwan can be occupied, the Luo family will have a real place to settle down.

but……

If you want to occupy Taiwan, you must have a ship, so don’t think about the Ming navy. Luo Xin cannot interfere in the navy. Once he intervenes in the navy, Emperor Jiajing will probably deal with him immediately. The Ming navy cannot move...

That is the only ship that can rob pirates!

In this way, I really want to participate in Hu Zongxian's anti-Japanese war.

Luo Xin not only rubbed his eyebrows with some headaches, but looked at Luo Qing and said, "Do you have the thousand people to water?"

Luo Qing smiled and said, "How can people living in the southeast not have water?"

"Will the ship be used?"

"This... doesn't seem to be...but maybe."

"You will investigate among your thousand people tomorrow, who will make the ship?"

"Okay!" Luo Qing nodded immediately. He didn't ask Luo Xin why. He was used to what Luo Xin said, he would do whatever he wanted.

"Do you know pirates?"

Luo Qing and Luo Sheng were stunned, and then shook their heads together. Luo Xin asked again:

"Do you two know the distribution of those pirates? Is it their place?"

"I know two!" Luo Qing said.

Luo Xin was delighted and said, "Which two? Where?"

"Those are two small pirates, each of which is only a few hundred people and a few boats. On two small islands about a few hundred miles away from the coast, there are actually many islands in that area, and there are many small pirates entrenched there, but we haven't figured out the specific location they are entrenched."

"You are not a navy army, how could you know so clearly?" Luo Xin asked curiously.

"I have a friend in the Navy."

Luo Xin pondered for a moment and said, "Let's put this matter aside first."

"Brother, when are you going to open the sea?"

"No hurry!" Luo Xin smiled and said, "The first month has not yet appeared. According to the convention, the yamen will be opened only after the first month. I will first understand the situation these days. Brother, can you get the sea boat?"

"This... can be bought if you pay for it, but it's very expensive."

Luo Xin nodded, feeling a little embarrassed. At this time, Luo Xin didn't have much money on him. He turned his mind and said:

"What did your navy friend do?"

"Is a navy general who is in charge of a ship."

"Tell me about his specific situation."

"He is also an old military household. The life of the navy was difficult, but after Hu Butang took charge of the southeast, he vigorously rectified the navy. Now his life is much better."

"Yes!" Luo Xin nodded and said, "Look for opportunities to contact the navy and see if we can bring some people over and find those dilapidated houses without families."

"Okay! This is not difficult. Although the navy has been better now, it is still hard to do so."

The three brothers drank until the evening, and Luo Xin returned to his mansion. The next day, he wanted to wait for Qi Jiguang to come and see what the anti-Japanese hero looked like, but early in the morning, someone sent by Hu Zongxian asked Luo Xin to go to Suzhou.

Luo Xin immediately understood that Hu Zongxian had arranged it. He wanted to see Wang Zhi's godson Mao Haifeng, so he packed up, took the carriage and headed straight for Suzhou with the guard.

He entered the Governor's Mansion without any obstacles. When he entered the lobby, he saw that there were only two people in the lobby, one was Hu Zongxian and the other was a man in his thirties, which saved him very tall and burly. When Luo Xin came in, Hu Zongxian stood up. When he saw Hu Zongxian stand up, Mao Haifeng stood up reluctantly.

"No, come here to do it!" Hu Zongxian greeted warmly. After Luo Xin said hello to Hu Zongxian, he sat down and looked at Mao Haifeng. At this time, Mao Haifeng was also looking at Luo Xin up and down. Then he frowned and said:

"Are you the official sent by the Beijing City to take charge of the Maritime Bureau?"

Luo Xin looked at Hu Zongxian, and Hu Zongxian shrugged, which meant to tell Luo Xin that he had not told Mao Haifeng about Luo Xin's identity. Luo Xin felt funny. It seemed that Hu Zongxian was still dissatisfied with him. He gave him a warning last time, but after his own remarks, he not only resolved his warning, but also made Hu Zongxian seem inadequate in front of him. This made Hu Zongxian feel very uncomfortable. He felt that between him and Luo Xin, Hu Zongxian did not have the initiative. A person with strong habits naturally wanted to take the initiative. This was to use pirates to give him an ugly look and regain the initiative. At least he had to overwhelm Luo Xin in terms of momentum and let Luo Xin know whose territory he was on.

Understanding Hu Zongxian's thoughts, Luo Xin also decided to take this matter seriously. At this time, his views were different from before. He only wanted to hide as far as the anti-Japanese war was before. However, when he remembered the incident in Taiwan yesterday, he thought about making some arrangements. Luo Xin also studied pirates in his previous life, especially in the Ming Dynasty, because the history of anti-Japanese war was a very important period of history in the Ming Dynasty. Therefore, he knew very well about pirates in this period. Although they were vicious, they wandered on the sea all year round, and they had unimaginable yearning for 6 places. Moreover, because of the excessive exaggeration of scholars during the Ming Dynasty, pirates also had a subconscious respect for scholars, especially for experts, and even a little fear. Therefore, Luo Xin did not accept his words, but just nodded slightly arrogantly.

The reason why Mao Haifeng looked down on Luo Xin was because Luo Xin was too young. In his opinion, Luo Xin was just a child. If he was on the boat, he would still be the lowest-level sailor. At this age, he would be in the Ming Dynasty officialdom, how old would he be?

However, Luo Xin's arrogant attitude made Mao Haifeng's attitude a little more serious. In his heart, he believed that the bigger the official, the more arrogant he should be. Will a person who is not arrogant be an official?

However, Luo Xin's age is too young. Such a young age really makes Mao Haifeng feel no trust. He couldn't help but look at Hu Zongxian and said in his heart:

"Is it because Hu Zongxian just found someone to fool me?"

Although he is a rough person, it does not mean that he is stupid. What's more, his adoptive father Wang Zhi has reminded him that the Ming officials are very cunning, so don't be fooled easily. And he also knows that it was his adoptive father who was deceived and almost died at the hands of the Ming soldiers. So he immediately became suspicious. However, he was not afraid, because his adoptive father Wang Zhi told him that as long as Wang Zhi did not go ashore and was caught by the Ming government, Mao Haifeng would not be arrested even if he was arrogant on the shore. Therefore, when he saw Hu Zongxian's appearance as old god, he felt angry. However, Hu Zongxian was in a high position and powerful position after all. Although he knew that as long as Wang Zhi was not arrested, Hu Zongxian would not do anything to him, he was still a little afraid. Once Hu Zongxian finally broke up, he would not care about him at that time. He looked at Luo Xin, without any concealing his contempt in his eyes:

"Show me the official seal."

"You are not qualified!" Luo Xin said lightly. A broken pirate wanted to see Luo Xin's official seal, what did he regard Luo Xin as?

Mao Haifeng sat upright, frowned and said, "That's nothing to talk about?"

Hu Zongxian, who was standing beside him, frowned. He didn't expect Mao Haifeng to be so arrogant. He didn't look like this when he saw himself before. Seeing that the matter was about to break down, he became anxious. Just as he was about to speak, he heard Luo Xin say lightly:

"It is up to you to talk, and it is up to you not to talk. Whenever you want to talk, come to me, Luo Xin."

Mao Haifeng looked stunned. He felt that the name Luo Xin was too familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a moment. However, after only a few breaths, he remembered who Luo Xin was. He stood up with a loud voice and looked at Luo Xin and said:

"Are you the great scholar who wrote "The Combination of Confucius and Mencius" and the military god of the Ming Dynasty?"

This time, it was Luo Xin's turn to be stunned and said, "Have you read the "Combination of Confucius and Mencius" I wrote?"

Mao Haifeng's face was flushed and he was at a loss, and said in a daze: "No... I haven't seen it... I've heard of it..."

Luo Xin sighed in his heart. The Ming Dynasty really brought the literati to a very high position. Even when a pirate saw him, the first person to raise his identity as a literati, not his identity as a marquis. But the expression on his face still said lightly:

"Okay, since Mr. Mao doesn't want to talk about it today, then let's go another day."

After saying that, Luo Xin was about to stand up, but saw Mao Haifeng wave his hands repeatedly and said, "No, no, no! Talk... talk..."

Luo Xin sat down the butt that had just been raised, raised his hand and pointed to the chair and said, "Then let's sit down and talk."

"Why!"

Mao Haifeng sat down a little crampedly and looked at Luo Xin with awe. Hu Zongxian, who was beside him, felt very uncomfortable at this time. Logically speaking, Hu Zongxian is now a first-rank official, while Luo Xin is only a fifth-rank, but he has never seen the awe that appears in Mao Haifeng's eyes. He knew in his heart that Mao Haifeng's awe for Luo Xin was not because Luo Xin was a military god. These pirates were very brave. If Luo Xin only had the identity of a military god, Mao Haifeng would not be afraid. The pirate's belief is that you say it is powerful, no. You have to fight everything before you can talk about it.

The reason why Mao Haifeng was awe of Luo Xin was because of Luo Xin's identity as a great scholar. This was incomparable to Hu Zongxian. Although he was also a Jinshi, he was not the top scholar, nor was he a great scholar. But the jealousy in his heart quickly hid. He knew that he needed Luo Xin's help at this time, so he calmed down and sat on the side to watch. Mao Haifeng's expression was completely different at this time, and he no longer had arrogance and disdain for Luo Xin. He changed into a look of awe and looked at Luo Xin and said:

"If I had known that it was you, how could I dare to say such a bastard? Please atone for your sins."

Luo Xin always felt strange. Even if the Ming Dynasty values ​​literature over military affairs, a pirate would not be so awe of literati, right? He asked:

"Do you often hear me overseas?"

"Of course!" Mao Haifeng suddenly became excited again: "You don't know that your reputation has spread to Japan long ago, especially your "Yanglin Poetry Collection" is well-known in Japan!"

Luo Xin nodded and understood. Although he was making trouble for Japanese pirates in the Ming Dynasty, Japan still worshipped Ming culture very much. All his poems were classics and could cause a sensation in Japan.

Luo Xin relaxed his heart. It seemed that his identity played a very important role in this negotiation. It was just that he had told Hu Zongxian before that he did not want to participate in the anti-Japanese war. He came here just to support Hu Zongxian and told Mao Haifeng that it was clear that it was going to open the sea. Seeing Mao Haifeng now, he believed it. If he participated in the negotiation directly, Hu Zongxian would doubt it, so he turned to Hu Zongxian and said:

"Mr. Master, Xiaguan has now proved his determination to open the court and his mission has been completed."

Seeing that Luo Xin was trying to leave, Hu Zongxian waved his hand and said, "No, don't worry. You sit down and I'll talk to Mr. Mao."

Luo Xin nodded, lowered his eyes slightly, and stopped talking. Mao Haifeng on the other side looked at Luo Xin, then looked at Hu Zongxian, and looked at Luo Xin again and said:

"Mr. Luo, don't you... talk to them?"

Luo Xin raised his eyes and smiled faintly, "Mr. Mao, I came to Hangzhou just to open the sea, and the rest of the matter is not within the scope of my official's authority. Of course, after Mr. Mao and the master of the tribe talked with him, I wanted to talk about opening the sea with me, and I welcomed him."

"Okay!" Mao Haifeng was stunned for a while before turning to Hu Zongxian and said, "Mr. Haifeng has told you that as long as the court opens the sea, we are willing to submit and do our best to help the court eliminate the Japanese pirates."

Hu Zongxian narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Mr. Mao, Lord Luo has come now, and he is here to open the sea with His Majesty's will. I believe that you should be able to trust Lord Luo's identity."

"You can trust it, you can trust it!" Mao Haifeng nodded repeatedly, and had not forgotten to turn his head and smile at Luo Xin.
