My wife is Wu Zetian

Chapter 870 Intrigue!

Li Daosan looked at Murakami Satoshi who was nodding and bowing in front of him. To be honest, he didn't believe in the opponent's strength.

After all, the goods on these more than ten ships may not be valuable in the Tang Dynasty, but when they are shipped to the Japanese country, it will be different.

It will definitely not be enough even if it is doubled ten times.

"Envoy can rest assured on this point. If you want Datang's currency, I may not be able to provide it, but if you use gold, it will be more than enough!"

Murakami Satoki smiled. If it were anything else, he might not be able to do anything about it, but he could have as much gold as he wanted.

"That's fine. I can give you the goods this time, but I have to arrange for some people to stay here."

Li Daosan nodded, just give him the money.

The situation of the Japanese country must be understood clearly, and it is impossible for them to hang themselves from a tree. There is pressure only when there is competition.

Otherwise, in the end, Murakami Saoki will only be able to lower the price. This is a situation that His Highness must not see.

If His Highness really wants to take over Japan, then he will need to take the lead now to choose the right person.

"Isn't this a bit bad!"

Murakami Satoshi naturally understood what the other party was thinking, but he had no way to refuse.

"What's wrong? If you don't agree, then I will have to find someone by myself!"

Li Daosan is not afraid of Murakami Saoki at all, and he has absolute initiative in the current situation.

There is no fear that the other party will not submit.

"Messenger, you don't have to worry about the price. I will never lower the price. This is okay!"

Murakami Satoki saluted again, telling the other party not to worry about the price.

Businessmen pursue profits. As long as they give the other party a reasonable price, I believe they will not disagree.

"This has nothing to do with money. Don't worry, as long as the price is right, you will still be my first choice."

Li Daosan smiled and comforted him directly.

"So I'd like to thank the envoy! Please wait here and I'll arrange for someone to deliver the gold right away."

Murakami Satoki left directly after saluting.

"Everyone is on alert. Ships should not enter the port. Be careful of sneak attacks from the other side!"

When Murakami Sasaki disembarked, Li Daosan also ordered all the ships to exit.

"Master, their ship has withdrawn from the harbor."

Murakami Satoki's people immediately came over to report to the other party.

"It's okay to withdraw. After all, the other party has come a long way, so it's right to be careful.

The most important thing is that they are also afraid that someone will cause sabotage, and they immediately prepare gold to trade with the other party. "

Murakami Satoki looked at the Tang ships setting sail and nodded.

The other party's choice was correct. If it were him, he would have made the same choice as the other party.

"Don't we need some protection? I'm afraid someone will be restless and cause some harm to those ships.

If these merchant ships are damaged, the consequences will be disastrous! "

Glancing at his master, the man also frowned.

"What I want is for them to take action. Just leave it alone and do as I say first!"

"Yes!"

The man left directly to arrange the matters assigned by Murakami Satoki.

"What? Murakami Sato arrived at Hakata Port with a dozen ships?"

Just as Murakami Satoki was preparing the gold, news spread one by one.

"What should we do? If we allow them to do this, it will be difficult for us to shake Murakami Satoki's position!"

"Then don't let them have a chance. Send out the water ghosts and sink all those merchant ships!"

"I agree!"

Several people smiled evilly together, and then left to prepare for a sneak attack.

At night, more than twenty small boats also took advantage of the darkness and began to move towards Li Daosan and the others.

When they were approaching the merchant ship, dozens of people jumped out of the boat and swam slowly towards the merchant ship.

Arriving near the ship, the water ghosts also began to speed up.

Li Daosan was not stupid either. The big ships all gathered together, surrounded by more than 20 small boats, which were constantly patrolling to prevent sneak attacks.

"what is that?"

A Tang Jun looked at the movement in the water and couldn't help but exclaimed.

"No, it's a water ghost. Sound the gong quickly."

"Dang Dang Dang!"

There was a loud sound of gongs, and the entire fleet was instantly awakened, and the crew members rushed out one by one.

Seeing this sound, the Japanese water ghosts also plunged into the water and swam quickly towards the big ship.

"Fire arrows!"

Li Daosan put on some clothes and appeared directly on the bow of the ship, instructing the crew to use bows and arrows to shoot at the water ghosts that got into the water.

After a while, there were blood flowers floating on the sea. Even so, the water ghosts did not flinch and continued to kill the ships.

They are all dead soldiers of the Japanese country. They are proud of death, so naturally they will not be afraid of this mere harm.

"We can't let them get close to the big ship, enter the water, and fight!"

Li Daosan said that he was about to take off his clothes and get into the water, but was stopped by someone.

"Leave these to us, they're just water ghosts, they won't become a thing yet."

The captain of the guard sneered, immediately took off his clothes, put on his dagger and jumped off the ship with his men.

The captain of the guard took the lead, and the ship guards jumped off the ship one after another, as did the patrol guards on the small boat.

What followed was an exciting close-quarters battle. Within a short time, corpses were seen floating up from the sea.    There are people from the Japanese country and some from our own country.

Fortunately, with the fierce resistance of so many guards, the Japanese water ghosts were finally wiped out and were unable to cause any damage to the ship.

"Has everything been resolved?"

Looking at the guard captain who was covered in blood, Li Daosan also frowned.

"Well, it's all settled, these people are nothing."

The captain of the guard took the towel handed by Li Daosan and wiped the blood on his body.

"Still can't let down our guard. The number of patrols tonight will be doubled. In addition, you should immediately send someone to negotiate with Murakami Sato and ask him to send someone to protect you!

I don't want to escape to the Japanese country with a narrow escape, only to die in the hands of these young people. "

Li Daosan also breathed a sigh of relief and immediately asked the other party to send someone to find Murakami Satoki.

People like myself can withstand one or two attacks from the opponent, but what about three, five, or ten attacks?

As the saying goes, using barbarians to control barbarians, Murakami Satoshi also has high-level support behind him. I believe he can definitely ensure his own safety.

"Here!"

Soon the captain of the guard directly arranged for people to go to the port to find Murakami Satoki's people, and when the other party found out, he hurriedly went to report to Murakami Satoki.

"Hey, they did take action, send our people over immediately.

Then he revealed to them the situation of Saburo Watanabe, Ritachi Shugami, and Jiuhui Nobe.

Let them know who is harming them and who is helping them! "

Murakami Satoki sneered at the man, do you have a good plan? I have a wall ladder.

Don't you want to contact those people? Then I'll show you what they look like.

Will you still choose those people to cooperate with?

Hey.

"I understand!"

Soon dozens of small boats also left the port and ran towards the sea ships.

Looking at the ship heading towards him, Li Daosan breathed a sigh of relief.

"Did you fail? Hundreds of water ghosts were just wiped out?"

People in the port also got the news of the water ghost's failure.

"Now that Murakami Satoki's people have passed away, it may be difficult to take action again!"

Saburo Watanabe glanced at the three of them and frowned.

"Then send someone to contact the other party. As long as they don't complete the transaction within one day, we will not be considered a failure!"

Shugami Richi smiled and sneered, and decided to compete with Murakami Satoki for this business.

"Okay, that's it. No matter what, we can't let Murakami Satoki get this deal alone!"

The next day, several medium-sized merchant ships also rushed to Li Daosan's side, but the answer was that all the goods this time were booked by Murakami Satoki.

Even if they offered a higher price, they did not agree to share these with them, but they still reached an agreement with them.

It was agreed that next time we arrive on the ship, everyone will compete fairly, and the one with the highest price will get it.

After receiving this news, although those people were unwilling to do so, they could only make this decision.

Soon, Murakami Satoki also prepared the required gold and sent it to the Tang Dynasty's ship.

After obtaining the gold, Li Daosan also ordered the ship to enter Hakata Port again, allowing Murakami Satoki's people to load and unload the goods.

After the goods were unloaded, Li Daosan also sent twenty people to follow the goods into Hakata Port.

At the same time, the dispatchers purchased a lot of Japanese souvenirs. We can't just return empty-handed with so many ships.

After spending some money, Li Daosan also replenished fresh water and food, and then set sail back to Datang.

"have they gone?"

"gone."

"Then when do you think they will come back next time?"

"I don't know, maybe two or three months, maybe half a year, maybe a year!"

"Hey, it's all our fault for not taking the initiative. Let's just let that Murakami Satuki play for a while."

"It can only be this way!"

Saburo Watanabe and others were also standing at the port, looking at the empty Hakata Port and smiling sadly.

"Ten copies of all the charts will be printed, and each ship must have a copy. No matter what, the charts must be sent back to the Tang Dynasty."

"Here!"

After going through some twists and turns, in the end eight of the ten sea vessels returned to Yangzhou safely.

Li Siwen had been waiting at the port early, watching the ship slowly approaching from a distance, and went to greet it directly.

Looking at Li Daosan getting off the boat, Li Siwen was also extremely excited.

Eight out of fifteen ships came back, with a loss rate of nearly 50%, which really shocked him.

Fortunately, Li Daosan is fine.

"Xiao Langjun, I'm back!"

Li Daosan hugged Li Siwen. To be honest, it was a narrow escape for him to come back this time.

On the way back, the boat he was in was directly engulfed by the waves. If it weren't for the rescue of the nearby boat, he would not have been able to come back.

"Welcome you back safely! Thank you for your hard work. I have arranged a banquet to welcome you. Let's go!"

"Then I'm welcome. I want the most expensive oiran in Yangzhou to dance for me."

"To satisfy you today, I will bring all the top ten courtesans in Yangzhou over to drink with you!"

"You still understand me, hahahaha!"
