It's hard to love a concubine

Chapter 195

Xiang'er was the first to react, she jumped up and said, "Madam, why is this Yu'er's life experience so similar to that of Shen Xiaobei's, Miss Yu'er, your father's name is Shen San, right?" That poor little boy Xi Yao bought herring.

When Qian Xiyao heard it, it was true. When she heard Xiang'er say that, she turned her head to look at Yu'er. She became excited when she heard Shen San's name, and said, "Ma'am, sister Xiang'er, how do you know my brother?" name?"

It really was a coincidence, when Yu'er heard that Qian Xiyao had met her brother, she hurriedly asked, "How are my brother and grandma?" After speaking, the tears were hazy again, and the tears that had just been put away poured out again, and said , "Daddy and I live on Longxing Island and have never been in touch with my brother."

Qian Xiyao also sighed when she thought of Shen Xiaobei's situation, she asked Wu Quan to give some money when she left, but after all, how could an old man and a child be any better?
In order to completely solve the problem, the issue of fish tax collection must be resolved first, and then their families can be reunited.

Seeing Qian Xiyao's hesitant expression, Yu'er covered her face and began to cry, "It was me who harmed my brother and grandma. If it wasn't for me, Daddy wouldn't have a family like he does now." Can't go back."

Xiang'er asked strangely, "But let's say hello when we go home. When we came, we saw that there were quite a few boats passing by. Why can't we go back home?"

Yu'er shook his head and said, "Madam, Sister Xiang'er, you don't know anything, as long as we enter this Longxing Island, we are equivalent to pirates, and if we go back, it will be a death penalty. How dare we go back and implicate our relatives? What's more, the fish in my family I didn’t pay the taxes in full, and I was arrested when I went back.”

Qian Xiyao deeply felt that these two things, the sea ban and the fish tax, really hurt the people here enough, and she didn't know what the emperor was planning. Thinking of the emperor, Qian Xiyao naturally thought of her current situation. Identity is just a hostage, and you can't protect yourself, so you want to be a savior?
Several people chatted for a while, Yu'er was very close to Qian Xiyao, seemed to know that she had saved his brother, so he just wanted to stick to her and tell everything he knew like a bamboo tube.

"Although my father won't let me tell you, but I know... there are thirty of our galleons, and we can often see people from the Orchard country with dark skin and big eyes, as well as Dongying people who almost shaved their heads. , and occasionally blue-eyed and red-haired people, but I don’t like Dongying people the most, they were the ones who often did robbery before Lord Xinyang Hou came.”

Listening to Yu'er's words, Qian Xiyao only thought that Longxing Island was a big transit point, Dongying should be Japan, and Gorilla Country might be India, Malaysia, etc. As for the blue eyes, they probably belonged to the Nordics.

The more she listened, the more she felt that Xia Zhen, the pirate leader, was not simple. He was obviously a very discerning and intelligent person. It is said that Longxing Island was established in recent years, and he reached a certain consensus with Xinyang Hou. It seems that every year A lot of money was paid, so the government has never moved here.

Longxing Island is equivalent to a large wharf now, where the ships rely on to replenish fresh water and food, and to rest and repair the ships, as long as they give some money, and then they can also buy Daqi’s silk here, Tea, porcelain, as long as you place an order, they will be transported from the inland in a few days, and you can exchange them for their rhino horns and spices. It is simply a modern version of an international port. The houses to live on that small island are all so luxurious.
