Start North America 1400: nation building

Chapter 330 [329] The middleman
Dong Chengfeng is pure good, and pure good does not mean stupid;

In this era of cannibalism, if he really had no brains, he wouldn't have the family fortune he has now.

Therefore, even though he was terrified, he also knew...

If this step is right, his life will be changed forever.

As soon as the officials of the Ming Dynasty were isolated, even the imperial envoys were no exception, isn't this enough to explain the importance of these noble envoys in front of them?
There is always an epiphany in one's life at a certain moment or stage.

Some people are rewarded by the gods, and they will become child prodigies and geniuses when they land, and they will make great strides all the way;
Some people have poor talent and need to go through thousands of sails to get something, but at that time they are already very old.

Dong Chengfeng belongs to Zhongbuliu.

Or maybe luck prevailed, allowing him to encounter the opportunity at this moment, and under the stimulation of high pressure, he had an epiphany.

We must also firmly grasp this opportunity in our hands.

then.

He was full of aura, confident and steady, with deep eyes, and gave the answer——

"Dong has a feeling somewhere..."

"If you see a light..."

"Come from this light..."

"%%￥...!!"

By this time.

There is no need for Gaza, Adina's grandson's translation, Tiaoyu, Zhou Ruoyu and others all know the meaning of the last sentence——

Praise for balance! !
At this situation, everyone's face changed drastically, and they remained silent.

Dong Chengfeng gritted his teeth secretly, keeping his expression unchanged. What he said was originally the order of Young Master Zhou and Miss Si Nuo.

Whether it can be done or not is up for grabs.

Therefore, even though his body was already weak from panic and was on the verge of falling, he still took a breath of heart to hold on.

In the quiet room, the scene suddenly became strange.

The angel did not speak for a long time.

Gaza and other Malindi people did not dare to disturb them, but they were impatient.

This person is too unusual, speaks Malindi, and knows balance;
If there was a leak on the ship, someone deliberately taught him this sentence, intending to get closer to the envoy of God...

Impossible.

Malindi is a Swahili language that only exists in the three coastal cities.

All the three cities on the coast came to pay homage to Balance, and they could see the divine power and miracles; the envoys of the three cities on the ship all respected Balance, and they had become devout believers, so it was impossible for them to betray.

Daming is indeed powerful, but in front of the gods, he is nothing like bullshit.

As long as anyone with ulterior motives wants to plot, I am afraid that they will be exposed immediately.

Then, there is only one possibility left...

"Brother Jumping Fish..." A law cultivator tremblingly said, "Yes, is that one?"

The other three were also shocked, and they all gathered on Tiaoyu, wanting to hear his judgment.

However, Tiaoyu couldn't make up his mind, so he didn't speak for a long time, resulting in a strange silence in the venue.

But at this moment, a female voice sounded: "The New Era of "The Holy Book of Balance", Chapter 3, Section 4—"

"A girl named Snow Mountain's Daughter is bound by evil sinners. Before the tragic death of her people, the world is gloomy;"

"The blood soaked her cheeks, when she made a cry of supplication, calling on the holy name of Kinkou..."

"The holy light of balance came, and He promised the prayers of the people, and came to the sinful Tushi Valley with thunder and divine punishment."

"That girl is the first person in this world to be watched by the true god of our lord and to be chosen by Kinkou!"

""Balanced Canon" New Era, Chapter 36..."

"There are orphans, widows, mothers and daughters whose lives are hanging by a thread among foreigners in Hohokan. When the girls see the holy light coming in their dreams, they shout the holy name of balance;"

"Its mother will return to life after a few days, and be blessed with equal glory;"

"His daughter enlightened her wisdom, and practiced the law with half the effort. Later, she became the first Dzogchen monk of the first-rank law in the Kingdom of God. She was given the name by the true god, and she was established as the chief of the Temple Mount, and entered the Supreme Elder Hall..."

Zhou Ruonan recited the scriptures of "Balanced Canon" in one breath, shocking everyone.

Of course, Tiaoyu and the others also knew the existence of the "Chosen One", but they were not able to blurt out relevant scriptures like she could.

"The great witch, and my teacher Wynn;"

"Everyone can see the glory come, and they will be the chosen ones."

"Except for the people of the Kingdom of God, even the people in Malindi don't know about this matter..."

"Whether what you say is true or not, I can be sure that you are destined to be balanced!"

"And you must know that the Lord God looks at the world, if you tarnish His name and betray the balance;"

"Then you will also be betrayed by Balance!"

"Now, in the holy name of our Lord Balance, I will issue guidance to you..."

"Are you willing to walk out of the fog of loss, not to see the false in a blink of an eye, but to see the true knowledge?"

"Listen to his instruction, obey his decree, may his joyful kingdom come, and live in his way..."

"For His people!!"

When the words fall.

Dong Chengfeng's mind was blank, only his thoughts instinctively extracted the information elements in the words.

God, Kingdom of God, Balance...

The one chosen by the gods! !
He couldn't judge the specifics in this short period of time, but he knew that he must not miss this great opportunity.

"I, I would, I would!"

Zhou Ruonan turned his head and looked at Tiaoyu.

Tiaoyu understood, and took the lead in saying: "That will allow us to praise him together, the name of the only true god in the world, the Lord of Balance!"

"Praise my lord, praise balance!"

"Balance exists among all things!"

Everyone's voices were raised in unison, creating a humming low roar, sacred and solemn, and this atmosphere alone made Dong Chengfeng calm down...

"Praise the Lord, praise the balance."

"Equilibrium lies in..."

At the moment of Licheng.

Dong Chengfeng's mind was completely undefended, and his last gasp broke, making it easier for everyone to watch...

boom.

Fainted and fell to the ground.

Everyone was taken aback, but felt that this was reasonable;

How can a mortal body endure such a miracle as seeing the divine radiance?

Tiaoyu immediately stepped forward to check his heartbeat and pulse. This is a basic skill in the Army of Judgment. After he was sure, he let out a long sigh of relief: "It should be fine."

"But I'd better invite 'Lu Zhirang'."

Lu Zhirang is a ship's medical officer, and he is also a person who has learned superficial medical principles and concepts of vaccination.

After sailing for several months, he and several divine envoys also practiced the law, regardless of whether it involved medical theory or not, they were all thirsty for knowledge, and a good relationship was formed.

Squeak.

The quiet room door opened.

Zheng He and the others came impatiently: "My lord, but what happened, do you need my help?"

"It's nothing, it's just this..." He looked at Dong Chengfeng, unable to call out his name for a while.

Jia Sha is so clever, he said quickly: "This is Brother Dong, Dong Chengfeng."

"Oh, yes, Brother Dong passed out and needs medical treatment. Please Mr. Zheng prepare a guest room for him so that he can rest in peace."

Zheng He hesitated for a while, and said again: "My lord, the identity of this person is not yet clear, should we deal with it cautiously? I am afraid that he has something wrong in his heart..."

Don't wait for him to finish.

Zhou Ruoyu yelled loudly: "How can we not know his identity? Let's put it this way, this person, like you, has a belief in Kinkou, and he is a follower of Kinkou."

"And, he has to see a miracle..."

sizzle.

sizzle.

Everyone gasped, and when they looked at Dong Chengfeng again, their expressions changed;

Could it be that this person also experienced fugue?
Only the Chief Secretary and Quanzhou government officials were ignorant and didn't understand what it meant, but they could probably hear that it had something to do with the belief of a sect.

Wang Jinghong stood up at this moment, still smiling and said: "Oh, leave this matter to me, and you must not let this brother Dong be wronged!"

"Hurry up, hurry up, come here with some strong ones, so as to help Brother Dong go downstairs, and prepare a small courtyard for him to rest in peace."

"Where's Lu Zhirang? Tell Lu Zhirang to come for consultation!"

After this episode, the banquet came to an end.

At least on the top floor, Tiaoyu and others also had to go back to rest, and Zheng He and others had no need to continue.

Wait for the envoys to be settled.

Zheng He and others went to the Political Affairs Hall again.

Wang Jinghong no longer smiled, and cursed: "Where is the news? Why hasn't the news been delivered!"

"The details of this person must be found out, even if his ancestral grave is dug, it will not hesitate!"

A group of people saw him go crazy, and it was not surprising.

And we all know that this matter is of great importance.

An unknown merchant from outside the building unexpectedly fell into the eyes of the divine envoy, but everything that is related to balance must be treated with caution.

And Zheng He was afraid that Wang Jinghong would really go crazy, so he comforted him: "Since that person is valued by the envoy, we should deal with it peacefully."

"If not, no one will be able to bear the blame if God envoys to blame."

"Is it okay if I just complain?" Wang Jinghong can turn against anyone, "This person is a variable, and we must keep it under our noses as much as possible..."

Shortly after.

Tang Jing, who went to investigate earlier, came back and brought a few scrolls and presented them: "My lords, the results of the investigation should be pretty close."

Wang Jinghong snatched it away and looked at it for himself.

Zheng He smiled helplessly, and could only learn from Tang Jing: "Say."

Tang Jingdao: "This man's name is Dong Chengfeng, he is from Qingxi County, Quanzhou Prefecture. He is a local tea merchant and landlord, and he can be regarded as a family of tea growers;"

"He has a good reputation and is kind. He has opened several tea shops in Quanzhou. His family is rich and he belongs to the Quanzhou Chamber of Commerce."

"..."

When it comes to his wife, children and grandparents, there are detailed information.

But the problem is...

From these news alone, it has nothing to do with Malindi and Balance.

After he finished speaking, Wang Jinghong turned the paper over and read it several times, and finally said angrily: "It's all useless news!"

Tang Jing frowned, staring at the other party without showing any weakness.

Wang Jinghong curled his lips, but the color still softened...

Tang Jing has a good relationship with another little envoy, so he doesn't want to offend him.

"Hehehe, I mean it's all the fault of the subordinates. I have always been convinced by Commander Tang's work."

People around him despise him, but dare not speak out.

Tang Jing said again: "I asked about what happened outside the building. I only said that a group of guests gathered around Malindi Guoshi, wanting to chat..."

"Dong Chengfeng suddenly appeared and yelled in a foreign language, which attracted the attention of the national teacher."

"later……"

Everyone will know what happened after that.

The only problem is...

"What did he yell?"

Tang Jing shook his head: "Outside the building, there are many merchants and officials who are proficient in Dashi language, but no one knows what language he speaks."

At this time, Ma Huan came out and said: "I then asked about the pronunciation of the words, and it was definitely not Dashi language, I suspected it was Malindi dialect."

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

Wang Jinghong shook the paper and said: "This person has never stepped out of Fujian in his life, how can he be fluent in Malindi language?"

"If it wasn't for this voyage, we wouldn't know that there are such city-states in the depths of the Western Ocean!"

"It has never been reported before that there are Malindi merchants coming to Daming."

Zheng He said: "Perhaps it was people from the previous dynasty who traveled overseas? For example, Wang Dayuan once visited Mugudushu."

Wang Jinghong said: "Even so, why did the envoy pay attention to it? He also said that he could see miracles?!"

By this time, the mystery was not only unresolved, but even more confusing.

There was a sudden silence in the political hall...

After a long time, Zheng He said: "We will go to inquire after this person wakes up!"

"En." Wang Jinghong nodded, "This person is just a merchant, so he must not cause any waves!"

……

It's the next day.

Dong Chengfeng fell into a dreamland. He stood on the prow of the huge ship, overlooking the endless ocean. All the gold, silver and jewels on board...

When the ship was about to enter the port, the wharf officials and people cheered and danced, shouting the name of "Master Dong"...

"Hahaha, good, good, good!"

"Dong wants to set up Dong's ancestral hall to pay homage to the ancestors with spirits under the spring, so that the incense will be passed on forever."

"Money rewards, there are rewards for everything..."

He is showing off his might.

But he felt pain in his cheek, as if he had been beaten.

He was about to be furious when his body shook violently...

wow.

The beautiful scenery in front of him is completely gone, replaced by more than a dozen figures gathered, and there is a doctor who is stroking his wrist to check his pulse——

"It's not a serious problem if the heart is full of fire and yin deficiency!"

"Listening to him in his sleep is full of qi, and there should be less nourishment, so that yin and yang can be in harmony."

Zheng He thanked: "Thank you, Doctor Lu!"

"Oh, imperial envoys dare not offend me. I haven't reached the fifth rank, how can I be called a doctor?"

Wang Jinghong already had a good attitude towards him: "Doctor Lu, don't be modest, you have obtained the profound and wonderful method, and will bless and enlighten all living beings..."

"After entering Beijing, with Dr. Lu's merits, he will be rewarded heavily, and he will be appointed to an important position in the Imperial Hospital."

Lu Zhirang said a few words of modesty, then retreated.

He is respected all because of the vaccination technique, and the magic technique is bestowed by the gods, how dare he claim credit for it?

No one is waiting to leave.

Wang Jinghong was the first to come to the bed, with a smile that was not a smile: "Master Dong wants to go to the West, bring back mountains of gold and silver, and open a temple for the ancestors?"

"Okay, the wish is grand, and Wang admires it!"

"I don't know when Master Dong will leave."

Dong Chengfeng woke up suddenly, and finally realized that everything was just a dream, and saw the few people in front of him...

This, isn't this the imperial envoy and the Western envoy?
"what--"

With a loud cry, he almost rolled over and fell down. He was about to bow and bow, but because his legs were weak, he plopped on the ground: "Dong Chengfeng, Qingxi County, I pay my respects to the imperial envoy and all your lords."

Zheng He sighed, pushed the yin and yang Wang Jinghong away, and helped Dong Chengfeng up: "Master Dong, you should know why we are here, right? Don't panic, just confess."

Dong Chengfeng was taken aback...

Know why?

Only then did he recall what happened last night, and then saw the imperial envoys here, so... the big thing has been accomplished? !

But to be honest...

"My lord, I, I don't know what to say!"

Zheng He said: "Talk about what you shouted to Master Malindi, and why you know...Equilibrium!"

Dong Chengfeng's eyes trembled and his mind wandered;
Seeing all the great figures treating each other with courtesy, he knew that he was already invincible and he didn't need to worry about safety.

Therefore, the matter of Mr. Zhou and Miss Si Nuo must not be mentioned.

He still spoke with those words——

"It is the voice from that brilliance, let me praise the equilibrium!"

After hearing this, everyone looked at each other.

Wang Jinghong hesitated to speak, and wanted to make trouble, but was stopped by Zheng He, and said to Dong Chengfeng: "Okay, shopkeeper Dong, since you have a predestined relationship with Balance and Angel, you are one of your own!"

"I will rest in Quanzhou for a few days, and I will enter Beijing in a few days. I invite you to go with me all the way!"

Say it.

The crowd led them away.

After walking not far away, Wang Jinghong said: "This person obviously has something to hide, I just look at his eyeballs, and I can tell what plans he has in mind..."

"Isn't it just relying on the prestige of the envoy and waiting for me without fear?"

"In my opinion, it's better to use cruel methods to make him confess everything."

Zheng He glared at him: "Don't look any further, my lord is watching everything in this world..."

"And he also has to see a miracle, so it's not something we can dispose of at will."

"He was talking in his dreams just now, thinking about overseas business routes, so it's better to give him a dream come true."

"Your Majesty banned the sea, how could he make an exception for a grassroots man? What's more, this matter is our duty, why should I assign it to him?"

Zheng He had a profound meaning: "It is still unknown what the DPRK and China's attitude towards equilibrium is; now that there is a middleman, there is room for many things to be roundabout..."

"For example, if I don't travel far in Ming Dynasty, it must be to alienate the meaning of equilibrium..."

"On the contrary, if there is a middleman who communicates with Malindi, it can be regarded as maintaining a level of dignity!"

"Of course, the specifics will have to be reported to the Holy Majesty after entering Beijing!"

"If Dong Chengfeng is not stupid, he will also be loyal to Daming, and help us obtain some information about Balance and God's Envoy!"

At this point, Wang Jinghong stopped making noise, because he knew that he was not as good at controlling major issues as Zheng He.

But in small things...

"Just follow Master Zheng's wishes!"

"However, for this person, I have to prepare and train him a little bit, otherwise how can it be of great use?!"
