Chapter 451 The cherry blossoms in my hometown are blooming again
The merchant ship heading to East Japan finally set off from Tianjiang, and the person escorting this time was none other than Hyuga Kojiro.
Hinata Kojiro is very happy!
Not only did he get a 1% share of the profits from this trip to Da Qi, but after he escorted this batch of firearms back...
It would be so cool to get the reward from the general!
It seems that this Qikou invasion may not be a bad thing. It is precisely because of these horrific experiences that there are such high profits.
Although Hinata felt somewhat sorry for the general's trust, when he thought about the fact that he owned the largest silver mine in the entire East Japan, how much silver was produced in it?
Thinking of this, he felt calm and comfortable again!
That's it...
With an impatient mood, Hyuga Kojiro fell asleep in the swaying merchant ship, leaning against the boxes of "firearms".
I was half asleep when I was told that we had arrived in Goryeo and were going to get off the boat here to have dinner.
Of course everyone needs to eat. After being tossed around on the boat for so long, they are all very hungry.
The most important thing is, just like a long-distance bus, when you arrive at a gas station, you should pee when you need to, and you should get off and move around when you need to.
Hinata Kojiro also wants to go!
But looking at the batch of firearms behind him, he didn't dare to go. After all, he lied to the general and paid twice the price to get the firearms. If there was any problem with these firearms, Kojiro couldn't imagine what the consequences would be.
and so……
Seeing that everyone wanted to get off the boat to pee and eat, he firmly disagreed and stayed on the boat.
Fine! He can do whatever he wants, and no one else can do anything about it.
They're just sailing boats anyway.
After this group of people left, Hinata was very bored, so he simply walked onto the deck and looked ahead.
Looking forward, Hello! Hinata Kojiro actually had an illusion that he was still in Qingzhou.
This place is really very, very prosperous!
Apart from the lack of checkpoints and the huge water wheels, the rest of the place is no different from Qingzhou. Of course! The only difference is that there are many Koreans wearing traditional costumes here, while there are only one or two people from Qi.
Looking at the bustling night market over there, where all kinds of special snacks were emitting tempting aromas, Hinata couldn't help swallowing his saliva.
Ah! It smells so good!
I don’t know what the special snacks of Goryeo are like?
While Hinata was still admiring the traditional Korean food and staring blankly at that place, what he didn't see was a group of sneaky men in black arriving here.
then……
They successfully found the marked mark and confirmed that this was the ship transporting the firearms. The leader waved his hand and a group of people immediately rushed onto the ship.
After rummaging through the boxes and cabinets, they finally saw the boxes of muskets in the cabin.
They were overjoyed!
Move away! Don't leave a single bullet for the Japanese!
"Bakayalu! What do you do?"
As a result, when the Koreans were carrying the muskets, surprisingly, someone on the ship discovered them.
Look! After Hyuga Kojiro pulled out a samurai sword from his waist, he howled and wanted to stop these thieves!
result……
It turned out that they were not a bunch of petty thieves, but were arranged by the Regent. To put it bluntly, he was just there to go through the motions and move some things.
Here, whether it's the military guards, the boatmen on the boats, or the merchants across the way, they're all on our side! How can you fight them, young man? You're the only one who's an outsider.
then……
And then nothing happened!
Even though Hyuga Kojiro fought desperately, two fists cannot beat four hands, and a strong man cannot withstand a large number of people.
You have two hands and a samurai sword, and there are as many swords as there are people on the opposite side!
Kojiro was still desperately shouting for help, but it was no use! No one would come to save you even if you screamed your throat out.
He died in a very uneasy manner, having been stabbed more than a dozen times. Before he died, he held a musket tightly in his arms. Unfortunately, he had not learned how to load it with gunpowder and bullets before doing so.
Otherwise, the thieves on the opposite side might be worried when they see that he has a musket in his hand.
but now……
Under Kojiro's grim gaze, they openly moved all the firearms away in boxes.
And what about Kojiro?
Gesang! The cherry blossoms in my hometown are blooming again, why don’t you come back and take a look?
The next day, a large group of Koreans in uniforms and holding dung forks came, directly cordoned off the scene, and then carried out Hyuga Kojiro's body.
Then, they announced that this was a very serious "murder and robbery" incident, and the victim was an Eastern Japanese, and they would definitely investigate the matter thoroughly!
To this end, Goryeo even issued a letter and sent envoys to East Japan to inform their general.
Lean north on me!
At this moment, the poor general was probably still in East Wo, organizing his men and horses to warmly welcome the arrival of this batch of arms.
He placed all his hopes on this batch of arms, hoping that he could turn the tables and defeat the Qi pirates.
But reality is destined to slap him in the face!
Not only did he give the pirates money as protection money to buy time, but when he spent a huge amount of money to buy the weapons with great difficulty, he was robbed when he arrived in Goryeo.
……
This way...
Da Qi, the news that the ship was hijacked in Goryeo soon reached Qingzhou directly.
After all, there are so many fleets coming and going, and pirates will also stop in Qingzhou to consume. What kind of people are most informed about the news at sea? Of course, it is these pirates.
So, before Hu Guangsheng's news reached us, a passing pirate learned about the incident and told the story in a tavern in Qingzhou...
Good guy!
The whole Qingzhou knew that an Eastern Japanese man had purchased a large number of firearms from Qingzhou. When he arrived in Goryeo, he encountered the rebel army of the previous king of Goryeo, killed the man, and stole the goods!
Ask them why they wanted to rob a batch of arms instead of silver and goods?
The answer is also very simple!
Because the forces of the previous king wanted to rebel, it was very reasonable for them to obtain a batch of arms.
The news naturally spread like wildfire and was brought to all parts of Da Qi by merchants.
When the Empress learned about this, she was happy, as it meant that the Japanese hadn't gotten the firearms, and she might even be able to profit from the difference in price. On the other hand, she was worried about what would happen if the Japanese came to punish her.
