Chapter 258 Foreigners
Chapter 258 Foreigners
Everyone looked at Jiang Zuo with puzzled eyes.
Jiang Zuo slowly walked towards the group of foreigners and glanced at their slightly frightened eyes.
At this time, a foreigner was heard saying: "Puris, Babi Babu..."
"What on earth is this birdman talking about?"
Song Gaolang frowned and said.
Jiang Zuo was silent for a moment, then said, "They told us not to attack him. They had no ill intentions."
"You are amazing, sir. You can even speak this ugly bird language. It is really a brilliant literary talent. I admire you!"
Song Gaolang said excitedly on the side, and others were quite impressed by his flattery.
"Can you really understand what they say?"
Chen Xiu was also quite curious.
Jiang Zuo nodded and said, "Of course, before I became the county magistrate, I studied foreign languages for several years."
Then he walked forward and said a few words to the group of foreigners.
Hearing that Jiang Zuo could actually speak their language, the group of foreigners were quite excited and started talking at once.
Seeing the foreigners' intense reaction, Chen Xiu was very surprised and asked, "What did you say to them?"
Jiang Zuo said: "I said, we have no ill intentions, we just want to ask where they are from and what they are doing here."
"Master Jiang, are they pirates?"
Someone asked with a little concern.
Jiang Zuo thought for a moment and said, "Not yet, but it seems so."
No one understood.
At this time, the leading foreigner spoke a long speech to Jiang Zuo again.
The others were confused after hearing this and had to turn their attention to Jiang Zuo.
"Master Jiang, what did he say?"
Song Gaolang asked.
"They are a fleet coming from the ocean. They have been sailing for two months. Now they want to dock to rest and replenish supplies. They hope we can let them go ashore without any hostility."
Jiang Zuo was responsible for the translation.
Hearing this, everyone else was confused and shocked.
So, a group of tribesmen that they had never seen before came to Jiangzhou?
At this moment, Jiang Zuo was even more confused, thinking: "This shouldn't be the case. According to this timeline, the Westerners should not have entered the Age of Exploration yet. Could it be that the world has developed differently?"
If Westerners have entered the Age of Discovery, it would also prove that the technology in the Central Plains is now lagging behind others.
Jiang Zuo suddenly felt a little uneasy.
After all, these foreigners came here, maybe with the intention of using cannons to open their port.
As for this, Jiang Zuo would naturally not let this happen.
Not long after, the group of foreigners were seen again, waving in the direction of the black ship.
Then, the second boat slowly approached the shore, and a few foreigners got on board.
At this time, a tall man walked out of the crowd.
It's just that this person looks somewhat similar to the people of Yan. His skin is yellowish, but his nose is as tall and straight as those Westerners.
Jiang Zuo felt that this person looked like a mixed-race person.
The man chatted with the others for a few words, then walked up to Jiang Zuo and the others and said, "Hello."
Hearing that this person could speak human language, the onlookers started talking about it.
"It seems that not everyone speaks bird language."
"Finally someone has come to speak human language. That group of people has been talking nonstop. If Lord Jiang hadn't been here, we wouldn't know what they were trying to do."
"Are they really pirates? They look so strange..."
At this time, Jiang Zuo also stepped forward and asked, "Which country are you from?"
"My father is from Yan, Yan, and our fleet is from Angsun..."
the man said.
"Angsun country? Never heard of it." Jiang Zuo said, looking up and down at the mixed-race foreigner in front of him. "But it's okay, since you have it, I don't need to translate it."
In this world line, there may be some big or small countries that Jiang Zuo has never heard of before. At least it is certain that this group of foreigners are from Europe. As for which country they are from, Jiang Zuo has no way of confirming it.
But the man said: "But I, well, I don't know much about Yan State."
Jiang Zuo said: "It's okay, the general idea is fine."
At this time, all the Yan people present looked at this group of uninvited guests with the eyes of looking at something new.
"What's your name?"
Jiang Zuo asked.
"what?"
The man didn't understand.
Jiang Zuo said: "What's your name?"
The man suddenly realized: "Lukes."
Jiang Zuo bowed and said, "It turns out to be Boss Lu. My apologies."
"boss?"
There was a big puzzlement in Lux's light blue eyes.
Although he has Yan ancestry, there are obviously huge cultural differences.
"Where is the country of Ansun that he mentioned?"
Chen Xiu asked Jiang Zuodao.
Jiang Zuo said: "It's in the west, thousands of miles away."
"Ten thousand miles? It's so far away. What is their purpose in coming all the way here?"
Chen Xiu frowned.
This matter was indeed quite strange. What surprised Chen Xiu even more was that Jiang Zuo's knowledge was so profound that he could communicate with this group of barbarians in front of him and even knew about the country thousands of miles away.
Jiang Zuo turned around and asked Lux: "Where is your destination for this ocean voyage?"
Lux said: "This is our destination."
Jiang Zuo asked doubtfully: "Here? Jiangzhou?"
Unexpectedly, Jiangzhou's reputation has spread overseas.
Lux nodded and said, "That's right."
Jiang Zuo glanced at the tired faces of the group of people and asked, "Come to trade, Bisnis?"
Lux nodded again: "Yes, that's right."
Even though he knew that these foreigners were here for overseas trade, Jiang Zuo still felt uneasy.
In his opinion, the word arrogance was written all over the faces of these foreigners.
I just communicated with them in foreign languages, and I didn't feel any respect in their tone.
The visitor has bad intentions and is definitely not just here for trade.
Moreover, Jiang Zuo looked up and saw that there seemed to be cannons on the ship.
"Could it be that these foreigners want to use their powerful ships and guns to force us to engage in unfair trade?"
Jiang Zuo couldn't help but doubt.
At this time, a man walked behind Lux and whispered something in his ear.
Hearing their conversation, a look of displeasure flashed across Jiang Zuo's face.
Sure enough, he came with bad intentions...
Lux seemed to have received some orders. He turned around and said to Jiang Zuo, "We want to use the money to rent a piece of land from you. We will rest for a few days, just a few days, and then we will leave."
"Lease land?"
Jiang Zuo frowned.
Why does this plot look so familiar?
Maybe this group of foreigners will never leave after renting a piece of land.
"Do you also want to use cowhide to enclose a piece of land?"
Jiang Zuo laughed.
"what?"
Lukes didn't understand.
"How can we rent out the great kingdom of Yan to a group of foreigners?"
Chen Xiu said with great displeasure, being very wary of the uninvited guests in front of him.
Like Jiang Zuo, he could tell at a glance that this group of outsiders definitely had no good intentions.
He pulled Jiang Zuo aside and said, "Perhaps this group of people are from the State of Chen trying to find out about the details of our State of Yan."
Chen Xiu has already listed all the people in front of him as enemies.
