Chapter 326
Eloy felt that it was at least [-]% likely that Ming people were playing tricks on Luzon's affairs.

It was his intuition, and his intuition never missed it.

Just like Zheng Zhilong, the Taiwan general of the Ming Dynasty in front of him, he seemed to be indifferent to the situation in Luzon, but he always felt that something was wrong with the other party.As for the random mention of conditions as long as the rebellion is suppressed, it is simply nonsense.Olaza asked him to ask questions, not to ask them to make conditions.

Eloy felt that he had made the right bet, because he saw Zheng Zhilong's intention.

"Oh? So sincere?" Zheng Zhilong raised his eyebrows.

"That's natural. Zongbing Zheng and us have always been partners. Although some unhappiness happened a few days ago, it must not hurt the friendship between the two parties. I have heard that Zongbing Zheng is the most loyal. Now friends are in trouble. Zheng Zong Bing will definitely not sit idly by. And as Zong Bing Zheng's best friend, we will naturally not be stingy."

"Hahaha! What's your name?"

"Eloy."

"Eloy, you are very good at talking! But then again, Luzon is so far away from Taiwan, how can I help you?"

"Right now, the Ming people are taking the lead in the rebellion on the island. With Zongbing Zheng's illustrious reputation, as long as Zongbing Zheng can spread a message, those people naturally dare not disobey."

"You think highly of me. I'm just a small commander in chief of Daming, so I don't have any deterrent power at all." Zheng Zhilong was very humble. "Well, although they may not be afraid of me, I have a lot of soldiers and ships under my command. How about I send [-] warships and [-] soldiers to Luzon Island to help you put down the rebellion?"

"It's absolutely impossible!" Eloy hurriedly stopped.

Are you kidding me, you brought so many soldiers and warships to Luzon, you must not scare the governor to death?

"Zheng Bing, there are only a few hundred Ming people rebelling on the island, so it's not worth mobilizing so many troops. You just need to send a message, and you can mention the conditions!"

"Can you just say a word?"

"It works!"

"No need to send troops?"

"unnecessary!"

"Any conditions are acceptable?"

"As long as we can!"

"That's it." Zheng Zhilong touched his beard, as if he was considering the feasibility of this matter. "It stands to reason that I shouldn't interfere with your Luzon's affairs. But since you are so sincere, I will give it a try. As for the conditions, you know that what my Daming lacks most right now is food. I don't Bully you and do what a lion does.

Shouldn't the rice be ripe in a few days?How about the harvested food continue to be sold to us?You won 200 million mu last season, and this season will certainly not be short of planting. Can you sell us the harvest of 500 million mu of land and pay [-] catties per mu of land.how? "

"Only buy food?" Eloy was a little surprised, so easy to talk to?

"Only buy grain! Alas, our Daming is now plagued by disasters and famines everywhere. Although there are high-yield grain seeds, drought, floods, and locust plagues, no matter how good the seeds are, they can't grow. It's not like you, guarding Luzon. Granary, don't be too comfortable!"

"Zheng Bing is overrated. If this is the case, I will go back and report to the governor, and make this happen as soon as possible!"

Eloy figured it out.Zheng Zhilong sent people to the island to make trouble secretly, just because he was afraid that the next harvest of grain would not be sold to them.As for the lack of food in Daming, there is no doubt about it, otherwise they would not sell such high-yielding seeds to others, just to recycle some food.I didn't see that Zheng Zhilong was in a hurry to send troops because he didn't want to sell food to them last time.

"Okay!" Zheng Zhilong stood up. "Shall I send you a boat?"

"No, no, I came by boat."

After the two were courteous, Zheng Zhilong sent Eloy out.

After Eloy left, Zheng Zhilong went to the Yamen immediately and met Shi Bangyao.

"Mr. Siming! Guess who came to me just now?" Zheng Zhilong asked mysteriously.

"Red-haired ghost?"

"Huh? How did Lord Siming know?"

"I've been looking for you for two days, don't you want to see me? I'm looking for you because of the Luzon rebellion?"

"Hey, I forgot about it. Sure enough, nothing can be hidden from Lord Siming. The red-haired ghost came to me and asked me to help them put down the rebellion."

"Oh? What do you say?"

"It seems that they already know that we are behind the scenes, but they dare not say it directly. They also said that as long as they can help them solve the rebellion, they can raise any conditions."

"Then you said you want to buy food?"

"Haha, yes! I said that as long as they can sell us 500 million mu of grain, I will see if I can help them."

"You are a master at pretending to be confused. If the rice production in Luzon is reduced this season, what will they sell you?"

"They teased me once, will I let them off the second time?"

"Have you reported this to His Majesty?"

"Oh! If you don't tell me, I really forgot! I'm going to find Shen Lian right away!" After speaking, he left in a hurry.

Shi Bangyao took a sip of tea with a smile. Zheng Zhilong respected him very much, even if it was a military operation, as long as it did not involve confidentiality, he would talk to him.The two of them had a great time working together, and if this plan was to be successful, his share of the credit would naturally be indispensable.

Zheng Zhilong reported the matter to Zhu Youjian through Shen Lian.

Zhu Youjian didn't say anything, he just told him to let him go.

On the other side, Eloy returned to Manila, but did not see Olaza.After inquiring, he realized that the war was blocked, and Olaza went to Balanga.So he was going to go to Balanga by boat again, but he met Franco again.

"Master Franco, where are you going?"

Franco glanced at him, but ignored him.

Seeing Franco bring people into the boat, Eloy became puzzled.

"what happened?"

"Your Excellency, you don't know that Master Franco was defeated in Balanga and was withdrawn by Master Olaza!"

"what?"

Eloy was very surprised. He did not expect that Franco, who had always been regarded as the right-hand man by Mr. Olaza, would be withdrawn.

On the second day, Eloy came to Balanga and met Olaza.

Olaza, who was in a state of desperation, immediately regained his spirits when he saw Eloy.

"How is it? Have you seen Zheng Zhilong? What did he say?"

"I saw it. But he didn't admit that he sent him!"

"Bastard! Shameless! You don't even admit it!" Olaza cursed.

Eloy is a little speechless, don't say people don't admit it, if it's you, do you agree?

"However, he promised to help us solve the rebellion, but there are conditions."

"What conditions?"

"Let us sell them this season's harvest of 500 million mu, [-] catties per mu."

"Buy food? Is it that simple?"

"My lord, in my opinion. Right now Daming is short of food, and the reason why Zheng Zhilong sent people to make trouble behind is nothing more than wanting food. The last time the trouble was like that, he was worried that we would not sell food to them."

"I definitely won't sell them!"

"That's why he made trouble. It's nothing more than wanting to buy some food."
