Chapter 54 Persistence is a virtue

Since Han Xiufen got to know Yun Zhao, his county respect has been in a state of lack of money.

No matter how much money they get, after a turn, the faces of Cuzangsi's sisters will become ugly again.

They don't understand why the county prince never keeps the money!

Qian Duoduo still has money in her hands, but the money in her hands has not been seen by Cuzangsi's sisters. Compared with Lan Tian Cuzang, Qian Duoduo's money is completely negligible.

However, Han Lingshan, Xu Wu thought, Zhang Guozhu, Han Xiufen and others don't think so. They value how the money is spent.

Compared with Lantian Daye, some money is not worth mentioning at all.

They prefer to see prosperous cities and prosperous villages than gold and silver jubes piled up in treasury.

As for the money-just look for it if you don't have it.

Baron Cristiano is not dead, but not very well alive.

He likes to hang the big medal on his neck, and it still hangs on his neck. This is his glory. Han Xiufen is not a person who likes to deprive others of their glory.

There is only one ironclad ship in the entire Nanyang, and it is now Han Xiufen's flagship-Lantian.

It is because of this ship that Han Xiufen dared to participate in the activities of scraping the Portuguese fleet.

The reason why the Spaniards, the British, dared to participate, was because Portugal had failed in the European naval battle.

Thirty-five years ago, the Dutch defeated the Portuguese in the Malacca naval battle, leading to the loss of most of the Southeast Asian interests of the once-powerful Portugal. From then on, it is difficult for the Portuguese to make a difference in Southeast Asia.

This time, it was also a naval battle between the Dutch and the Portuguese, but this time the naval battle took place in the Atlantic Ocean. The Portuguese lost 56 warships and were bombarded by the Dutch.

Therefore, in the next five years, the Portuguese who remain in Nanyang will have no support.

The British, Spanish, Dutch, and Lantian people all showed malicious intent towards the Portuguese after learning the news.

The Portuguese knew his situation, so the grieving Baron Cristiano gave up the entire Portuguese fleet after weighing it up. He took a dozen sailors and took a small supply ship, ready to leave Nanyang quietly.

He knew that it would take longer if the Portuguese wanted to regain their former strength after losing their Nanyang treasures.

So, for the future of the Portuguese navy, Baron Cristiano ran away.

This is the private prosecution of Baron Cristiano.

These words made Han Xiufen and Leonie stunned. After coming over for a long time, Leonie said: "You really are not for your family, but for Portugal?"

Cristiano said with grief: "Portugal is too small to withstand this level of failure. For many years, we have been committed to avoiding wars and did not want to participate in wars in Europe.

However, the Dutch disagreed, they were full of hostility towards us, and the Spaniards had already launched an offensive against us from the land. No matter how humbly we confessed their rule, it is useless. They have already occupied us and now want to Take away our dignity.

The sea is the last place of freedom for the Portuguese. Now, we have to lose even the sea.

Dear Baron Xiufen Han, I heard that the distant Ming Dynasty has always been a country of etiquette. Now, I, Baron Cristiano, ask you to leave this wealth to Portugal, and you will reap one on the sea. A firm ally. "

After hearing this sad story, Han Xiufen sighed, stood on the ship's side and looked at the seagulls flying in front of him, and said to Baron Cristiano in the most pitiful tone: "Write your surrender book, use it Your seal tells all the wandering Portuguese that they can surrender to my Lantian Navy and accept the dispatch of my Lantian Navy.

In this way, they may be able to survive, otherwise, they will become slaves and be trafficked to the far east-as slaves forever! "

Cristiano nodded and said: "Very good idea, and also a kind idea, I will write it here, but, my Excellency Baron, I hope I can continue to be the commander of the Portuguese fleet that Lan Tian belongs to."

Han Xiufen waved his hand, and a tall bald man walked over from the mast, picked up Baron Cristiano's body with one hand, threw him on his shoulders, and walked down the cabin.

Leoni listened to the faint pleading of Baron Cristiano and whispered: "I always think this guy is dishonest."

Han Xiufen said: "Regardless of whether he is honest or not, after we arrive on Tierra del Fuego, if there is nothing we need, we will throw him into the crater and let him into hell. Never want to climb out."

Leoni smiled and said: "It's best to do this. I can't wait to see the treasures that the Portuguese dare not transport back home."

Tierra del Fuego is a black island, a small island formed after the eruption of a volcano.

There is a thick layer of fertile volcanic ash on the island near the sea. After the seabirds threw plant seeds on the volcanic ash through feces, lush vegetation appeared here.

Of course, the coconuts that occasionally drift here are also left on the beach to take root and sprout, giving birth to dense coconut groves.

On the top of the smoky mountain, the entire mountain peak is still black and there is no grass growing. There is always a gap in the volcanic lake. Just at this gap, the acid water after the eruption is soaked in rainwater to form a high purity. sulfur.

This thing is an indispensable material for making gunpowder. The reason why Han Xiufen came to Tierra del Fuego to find the treasures of the Portuguese is one aspect, and mining sulfur is also an important job.

Zhang Chuanli took more than a thousand black sailors to mine sulfur, while Han Xiufen took Lan Tian soldiers and the ailing Baron Cristiano to find the treasure.

"Will you kill me? Baron Xiufen Han?"

"Baron Han, nobles don't kill nobles. You can't do that. This is not an elegant noble's approach."

"Baron, I can get my freedom by paying a ransom. This is stipulated in the "Noble Code" and you cannot violate it."

Han Xiufen smiled and said: "The first principle of aristocracy is honesty. If you are honest, I will abide by the "Code of Aristocracy" and allow your family to redeem you with gold of equal weight."

Leoni smiled and said: "Baron, you should trust our Lord Baron, she has always been kind and soft. As long as you fulfill your promise, we will fulfill our promise."

Leoni's words gave Baron Cristiano a little confidence. Even though there was a slight deviation from the human skin map, the direction was roughly correct.

Cristiano, who had a large piece of skin off his legs, didn't walk fast, but with the help of Han Xiufen's slave giant, a bunch of people quickly came to the front of a dark cave.

Han Xiufen glanced at the rocks all over the entrance of the cave, and said to Baron Cristiano: "Give you another chance. If you deceive me, the consequences will be very serious. At that time, your family will do it. Pay the price."

Cristiano said weakly: "This is where you can go in and take our treasure. If you can't see it, your eyes are covered by desire."

Han Xiufen glanced at a one-foot-thick shrub at the entrance of the cave and whispered, "No one has been here for fifty years, at least."

"These trees were specially transplanted by us."

Han Xiufen glanced at the black-clothed crowd, and a bandit with flexible hands and feet came over and walked into the cave step by step with a lamp shrouded in glass.

Immediately there was a roar in the cave. While Han Xiufen was waiting anxiously, the black-clothed crowd crawled out, coughing for a while and said to Han Xiufen: "The cave is very deep and there is an acid lake in it. In the lake, this is not a place where people can stay."

Leonie drew a long knife stand on Baron Cristia's neck and said, "Do you dare to deceive us?"

Cristiano lowered his head and said: "The treasure belongs to Portugal, you can't take it away."

Han Xiufen nodded and said: "Your behavior makes me very respectful, but we need treasures. These treasures will become many useful things, which can support our workshop to make more things, and let our farmers Produce more food.

It can also make our market more prosperous, and of course, it can also help us build enough ships.

Come on, Cristiano, I have witnessed your loyalty to Portugal, and now it is time for you to think about it for yourself. "

Baron Cristiano raised his head and looked at the sun in the sky sadly: "I am also a nobleman. As long as the nobleman speaks, there is no sincerity at all.

Baron Han, you will not allow me to live, just as I will not allow you to live if you fall into my hands.

Since it's all death, I don't mind suffering any more before I die. Only in this way, after I go to heaven, my Lord will do more to favor me. "

Leoni dragged her long knife fiercely, and she made a half-foot-long blood hole on the back of Baron Cristiano. Immediately, the cut wound opened like a big mouth, and the blood flowed. As noted.

Cristiano screamed ~www.wuxiahere.com~ Kneeling on the ground with open arms and yelled to the sky: "Lord, I am suffering for you!"

Leonie slashed on his back again. Immediately, a **** cross appeared on the Baron’s back. The weak Baron curled up on the ground and was covered in volcanic ash. He opened his eyes and looked at the sky and muttered. Language: "Lord, remember the suffering I suffered today."

When Han Xiufen saw that Leo Ni was still preparing to lay down the knife, she stopped her and said: "Stop, torture is to achieve the goal. Now that the goal cannot be achieved, that is cruelty. We don't need to continue to be cruel...

Throw him into the volcano. "

"So we won't find the treasure." Leoni was a little unwilling.

Han Xiufen looked at Baron Cristiano, who had fallen into a state of self-anaesthesia, and said, "He has already told Cai Bao to be there."
