Chapter 405 Yes, this king is trying to kill them

After a moment of silence, Zhu Xi asked:

"You mean, they would rather continue to be bullied people than accept the emperor's kindness?"

The translator also nodded with an ugly expression.

This made Zhou Xin, including the sailors surrounding him, look at the Dan people who rejected Zhu Ping's kindness as if they were fools.

Just now, he made quick remarks and pointed out that his companion was a good young sailor.

At this time, I couldn't suppress the confusion in my heart.

Angrily, he asked in Dan people's dialect: "Why don't you know good from evil? How miserable are we Dan people?"

"Now that we are living ashore and not being bullied by others, you still don't accept it. You are out of your mind!"

Danmin, who had just spoken, looked at the young sailor in surprise.

Unexpectedly, someone with a Dan Min background became the lackey of the imperial court.

He even scolded for a while in a disdainful tone.

This time he didn’t wait for Zhu Xi’s urging.

The young sailor took the initiative to translate and said: "His Royal Highness, King Qin, this fool must have some agenda for them when he said that you would improve their status."

At this point, the young sailor couldn't help but sneer.

He complained to himself: "This fool really thinks highly of himself. They are so poor now and only have one life left to look at. What else can you do to him?"

Zhu Xi knew that ordinary words could not break the vigilance of the people.

He simply followed the young sailor's words and said truthfully: "Yes, I am seeking their lives."

As soon as these words came out, Zhou Xin's expression did not change much.

The kind-hearted sailors put away their smiles to watch the fun.

Among them, the young sailor looked at Zhu Ming blankly as if he didn't know him.

The man opened and closed his mouth, as if he wanted to plead for mercy from the villagers.

Zhu Xi ignored the expressions of the sailors.

He continued in an indifferent tone: "The Ming Dynasty is preparing to form a navy, and now it needs to recruit a large number of sailors."

"And my husband said that Dan people are born sailors, but because their status is too low, they are easily bullied when they get on the ship."

"So let the emperor improve the status of the Dan people. Make sure that after they become the navy of the Ming Dynasty, they will not be oppressed because of their origin."

The sailors thought that Zhu Feng wanted the villagers to do something hard for their lives.

As a result, they waited for a long time before a navy recruiter arrived.

The young sailor asked in disbelief: "His Royal Highness, King Qin, being a sea... navy is what you call working hard?"

Zhu Xi looked at the young sailor strangely.

He asked back: "The sea is so dangerous. Not only will you encounter huge waves, but you will also encounter Japanese pirates and pirates. You can lose your life at any time!"

The sailors were speechless for a while. His Royal Highness the King of Qin understood that working hard was completely different from ordinary people like them.

The young sailor didn't care about anything else and just spoke at a fast pace.

To the Dan people who were unwilling to accept the imperial edict, he explained the reason why Zhu Ping wanted to improve their status.

This made Dan Min, who was still resisting just now, suddenly feel like he had found a treasure.

There was uncontrollable joy in his eyes.

He actually asked Zhu Xi in stammering Chinese: "Your Highness, King Qin, as long as we Dan people get on your ship and serve as your navy, we will not be bullied by others? Are there any other conditions?"

"If that's the case, then I...I agree."

This man's Chinese is mixed with some Southeast Mandarin accent.

Zhu Fang frowned when he heard this. Fortunately, the young sailor translated in time.

He nodded and said: "Yes, but you are not a navy for me, but a navy for Ming Dynasty."

"And in the future we will not only have to sail on a long voyage, but we will also have to deal with Japanese pirates and Europeans..."

"Anyway, you are fighting pirates. This is something that could cost you your life at any time. You'd better think about it carefully. For the sake of confidentiality, Zhu Ping did not inform the people in front of him about the existence of Europa barbarians.

However, this is not an important matter.

Anyway, whether it's fighting a Japanese dwarf or a blue-eyed barbarian who looks like an evil ghost.

The dangers faced are not much different.

The Dan people who were talking to Zhu Ping heard that he was talking about losing his life many times.

He was very angry for a moment: "Your Highness, King Qin, don't look down on others. I am also the one who chopped off the heads of Japanese pirates with my own hands."

Not only the people in the coastal cities of the Ming Dynasty were harassed by Japanese pirates many times.

The Dan people living on the boats also suffered greatly from Japanese pirates.

Even according to the living conditions of the Ming Dynasty, the Dan people were already extremely poor.

However, the Japanese pirates were poorer than them.

Some Japanese pirates failed to grab anything because of the fierce resistance of the local people.

Most of them will follow the principle of thieves not stealing away and grab a handful of Danmin floating in the sea.

However, the Japanese knives of Japanese pirates are very sharp.

The Dan people's harpoons are not vegetarian either.

Japanese pirates rarely take advantage of the people easily.

The overall military quality is still not as good as that of Japanese warriors.

Therefore, when encountering Japanese pirates, you still lose more and win less.

However, the hatred of the Japanese pirates among the Dan people who suffered unparalleled disasters has already gone deep into the sea of ​​blood.

Now I heard that the Ming Dynasty wanted to recruit Dan people to fight Japanese pirates.

The gangsters on the deck excitedly expressed their intention to join the Ming Navy to avenge themselves.

"Have you ever killed Japanese pirates?"

Zhu Ping did not expect that the Dan people were so poor and that the Japanese pirates would not even let them go.

My heart couldn't help but drop again, my evaluation of the Japanese pirates.

He assured the Dan people who were speaking: "Warrior, don't worry, after the Ming Dynasty's navy is built, there will no longer be pirates like Japanese pirates who will wreak havoc along the coast of our Ming Dynasty."

At this point, Zhu Xi scratched his head and asked, "By the way, I forgot to ask what your name is?"

"And can you go back to your gathering place and tell other Dan people that the imperial court has no ill intentions toward them?"

If it hadn't been for someone else, when Bao Buqi made a promise to the people, he would have boasted that from the moment he arrived, the threat of Japanese pirates would be eliminated.

However, after studying with Lin Che, Zhu Feng knew that this kind of boastful promise could make the people come back to their heart for a while.

But if a few Japanese pirates appear again, no one will believe his words anymore.

But now, the Ming Dynasty's all-out war against the Japanese pirates has not yet begun.

It is impossible to eliminate the presence of Japanese pirates in coastal areas.

The Dan people who communicated with Zhu Ping heard that His Highness King Qin was not bragging and said that the Japanese pirates could be eliminated now.

In my heart, I believed a little more in the promise he had made before.

He took the initiative to invite Ying and said: "Your Highness, King Qin, my name is Li Jia. Please give me a boat. I will go and pick up our clan leader."

The ethnic groups among the Dan people are completely different from the ethnic groups of the people on land.

They gather together mostly to resist risks.

This is not the case with today's Confucian family group, which has such a strict hierarchy that even their lives are in the hands of the patriarch.
