Chapter 1211

Zhang Yu is very hot here.

On the sea, dozens of ocean going ships passed the Red Sea and reached the Mediterranean Sea.

After arriving in the Mediterranean, the fleet got in touch with Rome.

This is a team of more than 30 merchant ships and more than 10 warships.

They were directly in the Mediterranean Sea, close to the sea area of later Greece.

They found the city of Rome, lined up the fleet on the sea, and sent someone to contact them.

"Send a ship over, contact them, supply us, and we will trade with them here."

Trade. Yes, this time Zhang Yu's team will trade with them.

The other side also has ports, but they are very small, and the ships are many times smaller.

Zhang Yu, who had been on the sea for so long, also trained several translators.

A few of them were early risers and they learned the language here.

The appearance of this fleet directly shocked them. They did not expect that they could see such a huge fleet.

It took more than two hours for the man to communicate with them clearly.

The interpreter came back in a boat.

"My Lord, they agreed to provide us with water and food. They also agreed to trade with them and invited us to go ashore." The translator came back and said.

"It's impossible to go ashore, and the merchant ships have to pass one by one, and several warships are around. Once they dare to attack us, we will leave."

The captain of this fleet is Xu Jinghai, with a higher education. Originally, he studied geography. He had several sea expeditions.

Zhang Yu used his familiarity with the sea and geography to send him on this trip.

It is of great significance to come out this time.

Trade is only superficial. Of course, making money is also very important.

What's more important is to continue to understand the sea and other places, and to immigrate in the future.

Zhang Yu will continue to send people to occupy all over the world. When all the overseas countries are occupied, Zhang Yu of Europe has no intention of letting go.

Of course, this may take hundreds of years, but no matter how long, as long as Zhang Yu is alive, he will continue to implement it.

Xu Jinghai was very careful and knew that the other side did not have large ships, which did not pose any threat to them, so they let each ship approach the sea.

At the beginning, the Romans were very warm, received them and traded with them.

Xu Jinghai asked people to bring a boat of fresh water and food back.

In fact, they still have a lot of food, but it's better to add some, especially fresh water. If they can supply it here, they don't have to go ashore to look for it.

But two days later, the Romans became dishonest and tried to control their ships.

"Let the warships attack. You're welcome. Kill a few people to sacrifice the flag."

The warship went out and fired some crossbows along the coast. The huge damage of the crossbows frightened them. They had never seen such powerful weapons.

As a result, there was a confrontation between the two sides. Of course, the merchant ships also withdrew.

Before some trade, Rome obtained some exquisite silk, pottery, spices and other items.

They did not expect that these people would be so resolute, go directly to the sea and attack them.

Trying to grab, failed.

"They are essentially a group of robbers, and can never be trusted." Xu Jinghai thought of what Zhang Yu said.

Xu Jinghai took the fleet to the sea, which made the Romans panic.

Originally, relying on them, they could buy a lot of good things, which they knew came from the East.

After a two-day standoff, there was no sign that Jinghai would reach the shore again.

But the Romans couldn't help it, so they sent someone to contact them.

They sent a boat over.

"Dear guests, please forgive the previous unreasonable, we are willing to continue to trade with you." The visitor said to the interpreter.

Xu Jinghai sniffed, but did not attack.

"Tell them that we can continue to trade, but we'll go one by one. If they dare to make a bad idea again, we'll go to other ports to find people to trade." Xu Jinghai said.

The other side promised and tried to smile.

Xu Jinghai once again sent a ship over.

They only want gold and silver, especially gold.

And the goods Xu Jinghai brought are all good things, so they don't worry about buyers at all.

A large number of merchants came from nearby city states to trade with Xu Jinghai.

Xu Jinghai and his family wandered for more than 20 days before they sold out the goods.

I can't help it. It's too big, and these Romans don't all have money. Some people have to transport money from far away.

Of course, it doesn't matter. As long as you have money, it doesn't matter to wait for a long time.

Xu Jinghai scattered gold and silver among some merchant ships, but he didn't appear before he left.

"Send a team of people here, cooperate with the interpreter, give them lessons, and bring a batch of books down."

Xu Jinghai wants these people to understand the situation here by teaching Chinese and learning the Roman language.

He wants to know more, preach advanced knowledge, and spy out more information.

Xu Jinghai promised that he would come soon, so there is no danger for the more than 100 people left behind. They can even travel around and investigate.

Ambush the nails ahead of time. Although the two sides are at war now, it doesn't matter. When they find that they can't fight, they will naturally agree to trade.

As long as they are willing to trade, Zhang Yu naturally has a way to get their wealth little by little.

When he is strong enough and a large amount of intelligence is collected, Zhang Yu will defeat or even destroy them sooner or later.

Zhang Yu's ambition is huge, even to control the world.

Now that he has controlled half of the earth, he will have no problem controlling the world in the future.

Xu Jinghai went back. This time he got a lot of gold and silver.

These real gold and silver will naturally become Zhang Yu's strength after they are transported back to China.

This time, the trade is huge.

Xu Jinghai went back, but now he plans to set up some strongholds along the Red Sea.

Around here, in northern Africa, there are actually a lot of Romans.

The reason for this is Zhang Yu's ghost.

They developed South Africa and dug up a lot of gold, silver and even diamonds here, which shocked Rome and sent people to rob it.

But in the face of the desert, they have never been able to reach South Africa, or have little power to attack after arriving.

Today, there are hundreds of thousands of Han people in South Africa, who are mining there and bringing back a lot of wealth.

Zhang Yu also relies on these wealth to develop rapidly.

The sea trade was very smooth.

Most people's maritime trade is closely related to the kingdom of India. After all, it is very close, and the nobles of the kingdom of India are also very rich.

Trade is a powerful driving force that will drive the rapid development of the world.
