"Okay Master Zheng, we all know the other party's identity, now we can talk openly and honestly."
Zhao Lie looked at Zheng Zhilong, who was quite outstanding in appearance, and smiled.
"That's right.
All the ministers of the Ming Dynasty value peace."
Zheng Zhilong's smile was very sincere and contagious.
At least it looked like this.
He was worthy of being a hero who had been honed for many years.
"However, these are my allies.
If we want to talk, we have to talk together."
Zheng Zhilong pointed at the other two people.
"Of course we can talk, but Master Zheng doesn't think it's too ridiculous for two Xiyi people to talk about the Ming Dynasty."
Zhao Lie put away his smile and looked at those two guys with disdain.
"Humility and subterfuge are nothing but hypocrisy and subterfuge."
Zheng Zhilong laughed dryly.
He believed that Zhao Lie had the same concept as other officials and gentry of the Ming Dynasty, that is, Chinese orthodoxy considered itself orthodox and looked down upon other foreigners, calling them all barbarians.
Zhao Lie laughed it off.
Talking too much was useless.
Both sides had to discuss their interests.
Reaching a compromise would be a peace agreement.
Failure to achieve it would be a showdown.
"Since it is you who are surrounding my city, then you should first discuss the conditions and how we can make a truce."
Zhao Lie has always been a habit of later generations.
He hates the mist-shrouded greetings in the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty.
In the past, he had to do it.
It's really not necessary at all now.
After Zheng Zhilong heard this, he just smiled and said nothing.
He had to wait for the interpreter to translate all the words to the two Xiyi people before the three of them could continue.
"No, no, no," after hearing what Zhao Lie said through the interpreter, Fan Peni was so excited that he shook his head like a rattle, his face turned red, and he spoke a bunch of words very fast.
The most irritating thing was that he pointed at Zhao Lie with his fingers, and he probably didn't say anything nice.
The translator was also very frustrated.
Van Penni was swearing.
How could he translate?
He could only selectively translate and hide the words that were too intense.
"Mr.
Vanpenny said that the Ming people invaded the cities of Relandje and Chikan without any reason, and killed hundreds of Dutch people at the same time.
Even the priests and believers were not spared.
This was done by Satan in hell.
God will not let go of your evil deeds.”
The interpreter said it dryly.
Of course, he didn't use the foul language.
"He is very shameless, Mr.
Ming.
This is a Dutch city, but he said it was Ming.
Mr.
Vanpenny said that the bricks and stones here were all built by Dutch."

Zheng Zhilong's face twitched, peat, now I want peace to be the most important thing, you are barking so much, is there still room for peace, you fucking bastard.
Sanders's face was also very ugly.
He still preferred to negotiate peace.
After all, he was very afraid of this group of celebrities.
He couldn't say anything specifically, but he felt that the strength of both sides was very close.
Even if he won, it would be a tragic victory.
It would be best if we could negotiate a result.
But Van Penny, this bastard, was going to completely ruin the peace agreement.
Sanders was speechless at this moment, wondering how this ability could lead to him becoming a special envoy of the East India Company.
When Zhao Lie first heard this, he was also very angry, but then he realized that he didn't need it.
Everything Zhao Lie did now would definitely make his enemies Jiannu, Japanese, and Xiyi very angry, and even have deep hatred, but What does it mean?
It means that he has caused huge losses to them, which makes them unable to conceal their hatred as soon as they see him Zhao Lie.
For example, people in later generations hate the Japanese.
This is a truth.
He should feel proud and proud.
It truly embodies the sentence, the enemies of the enemy are the bandits, and we are the heroes.
Zhao Lie smiled and admired Fan Penny's long, red face and hateful eyes.
He was in a particularly happy mood at this time, and he could also experience the heart-breaking pain of the enemy.
Of course, Zhao Lie had to refute the red-haired man's accusation.
I am a person who cares about people, and I am definitely not the hell messenger you talk about.
Although he is qualified to be a hell messenger, it is not bad.
“The natives in Jakarta, the Indians in New Amsterdam, and the blacks in the Cape of Good Hope all invited you to preach.
You killed tens of millions of locals with your swords, guns and artillery, and told them to pay you taxes and to Where is your God at this time, or else he will be killed and rot in the wilderness?
Has he gone on vacation?"
After Zhao Lie finished speaking, he pointed to the interpreter and said, "If you are still a Han Chinese, tell me everything."
The interpreter nodded with a stiff face and told Van Penny one by one.
Zheng Zhilong listened thoughtfully to Zhao Lie's remarks.
After hearing this, Fan Penni was furious.
He jumped and shouted loudly at Zhao Lie.
Yu Dabao, who was beside Zhao Lie, was furious and wanted to step forward and teach this idiot a lesson.
Zhao Lie pulled him, and the interpreter said at this time, "Mr.
Fan Peni said that those are pagans.
They have a duty to the pagans to let them give up their cults and believe in Christ Jesus, even if they sometimes use violent means."
It is understandable that the descendants of these pagans would later thank the Dutch for saving them from darkness.
After hearing this, Zhao Lie took a good look at Fan Peni, who was thin and tall, but his face was still full of anger.
He couldn't help but have a better understanding of this man's shamelessness.
In future generations, such a person will be a thick black talent.
Leaders recruited by major companies.
But when Zhao Lie met such a person who even believed his lies, Zhao Lie lost interest in reasoning with this scoundrel.
What else are you talking about?
In a word, everything they did was given to them by religion.
Even if they burned, killed, raped and looted, it was allowed by religion.
When you meet such a person who talks so shamelessly, you can't be reasonable.
"You tell him that I, Denglai Commander-in-Chief Zhao Lie, am deeply saddened by his addiction to magic.
I decided to use blood and fire to save him from paganism.

Only by believing in my Taoism of the Ming Dynasty can he avoid this catastrophe."
Zhao Lie pointed at the interpreter who was stunned after hearing these words, "Well, tell this lunatic."
Nima, you are unreasonable and I am unreasonable too.
You say others are infidels, and I say you are infidels.
I am here to save you, but you bite me.
The interpreter stumbled over the translation, and Fan Peni's face turned pale.
He was extremely ashamed and angry.
He even used Mingren's cult to humiliate him.
He was about to explode.
Suddenly he realized that something was wrong.
If he started a war without even talking about it, what would be the consequences?
How can he be responsible?
If you go to war without even talking about it, it's okay to win a big victory over your opponent.
Even if it's a miserable victory and too many battleships are damaged, he will still be questioned after he goes back.
To put it bluntly, you can obviously gain benefits peacefully, so why did you use swords and guns, you loser?
The East India Company was a profitable joint-stock company, not a national entity.
The shareholders only paid attention to one thing, and that was profits.
Van Penny stood there in embarrassment for a moment.
He didn't want to leave, and he didn't want to leave either.
Ahem, it was really a bit embarrassing.
Zheng Zhilong and Sanders couldn't let this idiot mess up the matter.
"Master Zhao, ignore him, he really doesn't know anything," Zheng Zhilong was also extremely disdainful of Van Penny.
"Master Zhao, what I, Zheng, mean is whether Master Zhao can withdraw from Xiaoliuqiu and you and I form an alliance.
From now on, the northern and southern maritime areas of the Ming Dynasty will no longer be left to our discretion."
Zheng Zhilong finally put forward his request.
It can be said that the statement was a bit shameless, but if it was just this condition, Zhao Lie might really agree to him.
But this is only the opinion of the Zheng family.
Zhao Lie believes that the other two families have their own agenda.
"If only this condition is not inevitable, it is just a matter of how Xiaoliuqiu handles it."
Zhao Lie also laughed and talked about it.
"Of course Xiaoliuqiu can be restored to its original state.
The Netherlands and the Spaniards can redeem Xiaoliuqiu by paying a ransom, Mr.
Zhao, look at it."
This is the best result of their temporary negotiation.
Of course, there are still conditions behind it.
The so-called negotiation is a kind of test to test the strength and courage of the other party.
If Zhao Lie agrees easily, does it mean that Zhao Lie is also a little guilty and can he take the opportunity to put forward more stringent conditions?
"Oh, how much is the ransom?"
Zhao Lie looked very interested.
Zheng Zhilong was secretly happy, this was a good start.
"They promised to use two hundred thousand taels of silver to compensate you and take back Xiaoliuqiu.
Of course, they have a condition."
Zhao Lie smiled and asked, "Master Zheng, you can tell me what the conditions are."
"They want to follow the example of Macau and rent a piece of land in Denglai so that they can facilitate trade and berth ships for rest and rest.
Take a look, Mr.

Zhao."
Zheng Zhilong struck while the iron was hot and proposed their ultimate goal.
In fact, their original proposal was to occupy territory in Jeju.
But the one who came was Zhao Lie, the de facto warlord of Denglai.
Why not ask for a good place in Denglai?
Do your thoughts change with the situation?
"What if I don't agree to wait for you in Denglai?"
Zhao Lie put away his smile and said.
"Master Zhao, why bother?
It's just a small seaport.
It can communicate with the Western Yi people.
Moreover, they promised to pay a rent of fifty thousand taels of silver every year.
Fifty thousand."
Zheng Zhilong still said with a smile on his face.
"Ask them, what if I don't give them a seaport."
Zhao Lie said with a cold face.
Zheng Zhilong found that this seemed to be a hurdle, and there was no room for accommodation.
He immediately turned to Sanders and Van Penny and started talking.
He was fluent in both languages.
He relied on this ability to travel between the Netherlands and the Francois.
Most of these special skills are still there today. exist.
The three of them discussed and even argued.
Finally, Zheng Zhilong turned around and said, "My lord, they insist that a peace agreement can only be reached by leasing them a seaport."
"Is the lease term for a hundred years?"
Zhao Lie asked lazily.
"How do you know, sir?"
Zheng Zhilong asked in confusion.
Could it be that Zhao Lie understands Franji language or the language of the Netherlands.
"Are you insisting?
Without this clause, no agreement can be reached."
Zhao Lie's voice suddenly became stern.
Zheng Zhilong hesitated for a moment, then insisted, "Yes, that's the condition.
Mr.
Zhao, this condition is actually very easy to achieve."
Zheng Zhilong doesn't think this is a bond.
There is a precedent in Macau and it's not too much.
The worst thing is not to rent it to them.
"In this case, there is no need for us to continue talking.
Master Zheng can return to the ship and prepare for a fight to the death."
Zhao Lie turned around and left, walking very resolutely.
He made a gesture, and the sailors on the ship released their long hooks and used their pennies to divert the other's ship.
"Master Zhao, why bother?
This condition is not too much.
We can talk about everything."
Zhao Lie's determination was beyond Zheng Zhilong's expectation, and he shouted from behind.

The two guys were a little dumbfounded.
But nothing could stop the sailors of the Di Qing from raising the sails and heading west
