When Zheng Zhibao heard this, he knew that there was a show to act. So he immediately went out to greet him.

If it were normal times, the second-ranked master of the shogunate, the old master of the shogunate, would definitely not wait at the door. Even if he came to Zheng's mansion, he would have come in directly. Now he is waiting at the door, but he is just asking to come to the Zheng family if he has something to do.

Sure enough, when Zheng Zhibao arrived at the door, Matsupi Nobu Tsuna showed great respect for the Zheng family and entered the Zheng Mansion happily. Then, as he chatted, he suddenly changed his mind and said to Zheng Zhibao: "I heard that it is not easy for an official to be an official in Ming Dynasty. Why not come to our country? The general has long been acclaimed for an official. As long as an official serves our country, he will definitely sweep the bed to welcome him!"

"Ah..." Zheng Zhibao pretended to be very surprised and quickly said with gratitude, "My elder brother must be very grateful if he has valued it by General Meng. But I guess my elder brother may not come to Japan. After all, my Zheng family's basic industries are all in the southeast of Ming Dynasty. Please tell the general about this, I will definitely tell you, but..."

Zheng Zhilong is versatile and does a maritime business. Even if he is closed to Japan, his Zheng family is fine. This shows that he also operates with the Tokugawa Shogunate on weekdays and wins the favor of the shogunate. However, the Tokugawa Shogunate also estimates Zheng Zhilong's reaction, and Zheng Zhibao's answer was as expected.

Therefore, although Zheng Zhibao didn't finish his words, Matsuhei Nobuka knew what he wanted to say, so he laughed and said disrespectfully: "It's okay, it's okay, understand, understand. In fact, I am quite puzzled. One official is lingering in the sea, and the Ming Dynasty is powerless at all, so why does an official want to surrender to the Ming Dynasty court and be subject to anger?"

Just because Zheng Zhilong's maritime power, including the Western Barbarians, dare not provoke Zheng Zhilong at all. He has to listen to Zheng Zhilong in order to mingle on the southeast coast of the Ming Dynasty. If the officials of the country are not clear about such a huge force, Japan, as an island country, knows it very well.

Hearing Matsue Nobuka's question, Zheng Zhibao sighed and said, "Who said no, my brother is helpless! If you can establish a good relationship with the court, you will naturally make a lot of money. Otherwise, the court will cause trouble, and although my Zheng family is not afraid, it will affect the business in some ways."

Speaking of this, he laughed at himself and said to Matsuhira Nobuka, "Who will be unable to get along with the money? Do you think you are?"

Hearing this, Matsupi Nobugang smiled. They knew how Zheng Yiguan was, and now he dominated the southeast of Ming Dynasty and collected protection fees every year. They also heard about it. Zheng Zhibao's answer was as expected.

Therefore, Matsuhira Nobutsu smiled and said to Zheng Zhibao: "Since the emperor of the Ming Dynasty is unruly, why not rebel? Even if the business has some influence for a while, the general can promise to make up for this part. In the future, all the business in our country, your Zheng family will be in charge of our business in Japan. How about it?"

"Well..." Zheng Zhibao pretended to be a little surprised when he heard this, "My Zheng family has not done anything against the court. However, this matter is very important to my Zheng family after all. The general is kind, and my Zheng family is very grateful, but this matter is of great importance, and I dare not make decisions!"

After hearing this, Matsupi Nobuo nodded repeatedly, suddenly his face became solemn, and said to Zheng Zhibao: "I believe you have heard some news. I will speak out about this matter. General is bound to win North Korea and will send troops within the year. However, the Denglai Naval Division of Ming Dynasty is all under the command of the first official. If we meet on the battlefield, this is what General will not want..."

Speaking of this, he paused, looked at Zheng Zhibao's face, and found that there was no surprise, and continued: "I believe that one official knows the maritime strength of our Japan. If an official continues to serve the Ming court and fights against our Japan against North Korea, I dare not say anything else. The Zheng family fleet is not enough to rely on the warships in Liaodong today. Even if the warships are transferred from the southeast, they will definitely suffer heavy losses. If the warships in the Zheng family are greatly damaged..."

Matsukai Nobusuke deliberately paused. Seeing that Zheng Zhibao's face finally changed, he felt proud and continued: "Maybe the Emperor of Ming Dynasty will offend a official and take the opportunity to seize the foundation of your Zheng family. The fate of an official may not be able to end up well!"

Hearing this, Zheng Zhibao slapped a few times, almost scared Matsupita Nobugang. He saw Zheng Zhibao shouting indignation: "No, now, the Emperor of Ming Dynasty felt that Jianlu had no navy, and my elder brother was useless, so he just found an excuse to dismiss my elder brother. If you really had to send troops to Korea and go to war with my Zheng family, my Zheng family would definitely suffer a loss now in the north. The dog emperor was furious and might put the blame on my elder brother. And to be honest, the Emperor of Ming Dynasty had long coveted my Zheng family for a long time. Not only did he transfer my elder brother to the north, but he also forced my Zheng family to continue to buy food from Nanyang to give it to the court for free. This matter has long been unsatisfied with our Zheng family!"

If the Zheng family fleet confronts the Japanese navy head-on, the outcome is really hard to say. Maybe it’s not good to do it, if you leave the southeast coast, you can’t win. After all, the Japanese navy is not comparable to the Jianlu or the Korean navy. It is a real navy, which is far more important than the Ming Dynasty and has a stronger navy. Even Zheng Zhibao admits this.

Seeing Zheng Zhibao so angry, Matsukai Nobugang was filled with joy. The Zheng family is just a pirate, how much justice does the court have? Now it seems that it is indeed correct that the Zheng family has been dissatisfied with the court for a long time, so there is room for negotiation!

So, facing Zheng Zhibao's anger, Matsupi Nobuo also criticized the Ming Dynasty and felt sorry for the Zheng family. Finally, the old saying reiterated, saying that the Japanese side was willing to give the Zheng family the most favorable treatment and make the Zheng family's business bigger. There is only one condition, which is to avoid the conflict between the two strong men. The Zheng family should not listen to the Ming court in North Korea, and at most do things and cannot fight. Otherwise, the Japanese warships would suffer losses, but the Zheng family would inevitably suffer greater losses.

Hearing this, Zheng Zhibao immediately nodded and said, "How could my Zheng family fight against Japan? Without the capital of Zonghenghai, how can we gain a foothold in the future! I immediately sent someone to tell my elder brother about this, believing that my elder brother will definitely make the right choice. It's just... just..."

When he heard that he seemed to have difficulties, Matsupita Nobugang knew that the Zheng family should have given him a little unsatisfied with the conditions he should have given. So he said again: "Tell me, my general said that as long as the Zheng family stands by and watch, all the business in our country will be handed over to your Zheng family to make up for the losses."

Speaking of this, his face became very serious and said very seriously: "Of course, if your Zheng family rebels against the Ming court, then from then on, our Japanese and Jurchens will seize the world of the Ming Dynasty and are willing to sever Fujian and Guangdong to give an official position. In this way, an official can not only dominate the sea, but also become an emperor by himself. How about it?"

After saying that, he even showed Tokugawa Iemitsu's handwritten book on the spot to show that this matter would never be fake!

Zheng Zhibao was shocked when he heard this. To be honest, this offer really shocked him.

With the Zheng family's maritime strength, if it is based on the Fujian and Guangdong provinces, it will definitely dominate one side. Even if you don't have the heart to go north, there is absolutely no problem in going south to Southeast Asia.

If Japan had offered this condition before the eleventh year of Chongzhen, and the Japanese and Jianlu would have joined forces at that time, Zheng Zhibao believed that maybe it could really tempt the Zheng family.

At that time, not to mention anything else, the Ming Dynasty was full of thieves and could not resist the invasion of Jianlu outside. If we joined another Japanese country, could the Ming Dynasty not destroy its country? The Zheng family took advantage of this opportunity and could it be very tempting if they could seize the separatist side.

But at this moment, haha...

Who is the Emperor of Ming Dynasty? As long as he is not blind, just those who have the courage to rebel?

Besides, is the emperor good to the Zheng family?

In the past, Wang Zhi, who was born in a pirate like the Zheng family, was a good example of Wang Zhi during the Jiajing period. Wang Zhi was willing to surrender and be recruited, but Daming still did something without trust and put him in jail.

However, the emperor today has no discriminatory background. Not to mention that the elder brother has become the unprecedented general of the navy. Just Zheng Sen's nephew, the emperor gave him a name and asked him to be the prince to accompany him. If there is really discrimination, it is absolutely impossible to become the prince to accompany him.

What's more, the current Ming emperor has great talents and lofty ambitions. It is when the navy is about to show its skills that he will destroy these things when he is crazy.

Besides, can it be destroyed even if you want to destroy it? Not to mention the Zheng family fleet, the Minnan side, at least the Denglai Navy will definitely not just listen to the Zheng family!

The most important thing is that the emperor has already agreed to the plans of you Japanese. Even if you are dizzy, it is impossible to form an alliance with you!

However, although Zheng Zhibao thought so, he did look shocked on the surface, and then he was disbelief. He took Tokugawa Iemitsu's handbook, looked carefully and then. After confirming it again and again, he said to Matsuhira Nobuzuka with an ecstatic expression: "Will you go back on your word?"

"God Amaterasu is here, and you will never regret it!" Matsuhira Nobutsu was also overjoyed and immediately swore seriously.

After a moment of silence in the room, there were then laughter from collusion.

Afterwards, the two of them started to act separately after some discussion.

The reply from Matsuhira Nobuzuka to Tokugawa Iemitsu was that the Zheng family wanted to have Fujian and Guangdong provinces, but in the end, Zheng Yiguan had to make a decision. However, there was no problem in this matter.

Hearing this, Tokugawa Iemitsu couldn't help laughing. Let's talk about the future. As long as the Zheng family fleet did not harass the troops going to North Korea in the early stage, the goal would have been achieved.

Naturally, he didn't know that this was the pit that the Emperor of Ming Dynasty had dug for him for Japan, and was waiting for him to jump!
