Chapter 1525 () Discovering a fat man(1/2)
In the mid-17th century, when the capital of the Ming Empire was captured by a group of rioters and forced Emperor Chongzhen to hang himself in Coal Mountain, basically falling into the northern part of the Ming Dynasty and the southern part was in turmoil and storm of power and profit, in the Indian Ocean (Little Western Atlantic), several princes of the Mughal Dynasty were also engaged in fierce battles for the throne, regardless of the large and small princes of the country who retained large swathes of land, nor the British colonists who were slowly invading and peeping at this time.
At this time, India was mainly the sphere of influence of British merchants. They were allowed to open trade points in Mumbai very early, while France followed closely behind, and soon monopolized the various coastal trade points of the Indian Peninsula and prevented the entry of other forces. At the same time, Indian spices, gums and sugar and other specialties gradually began to enter various European stores.
Of course, the above things are not important.
Because, today, the five huge warships with the banners of the Ming and Li families are even bigger than the largest giant Arab ships in the port and the North Sea multi-masted square sailing ships, and once they appear, they attract the attention of Calikat port officials, merchants and dock coolies.
However, no matter how they paid tribute to the five Li family ships, it was useless. After the ship was anchored away from the dock, a bad little girl immediately took the boat and took her little follower and second admiral Song Yifeng and several dog-legged sailors with guns and knives to the land of Kalikat dock and curiously looked at the exotic scenery here.
“Is this Kalikat?”
“It’s so hot…”
"Annie, I can't stand it anymore, I don't think I'm about to be melted."
However, after staying on the shore for a short time, under the scorching sun above my head, the hot sea breeze and the hot ground, Song Yifeng, who felt that this place was even more unbearable than on the boat, started to yell in grief on the spot.
Compared with the Northeast Peninsula where she grew up like spring and snowy in winter, Kalikat in the Indian Ocean is really bad, so she suddenly regretted landing with some bad little girl.
"If I had known it was so hot, I should have stayed on the boat..."
"Wuuu..."
Song Yifeng kept pulling the neckline of her already loose summer clothes, trying to make the same hot clothes looser, so that large areas of skin on her sweaty and red neck could be exposed. At the same time, sweat kept flowing down from her forehead, and her hair began to be pressed against her cheeks, as if she had just been fished out of the water.
"I'm so hot, I'm so hot!"
Song Yifeng, who had completely ignored her image, was still pulling her collar, feeling that the oil umbrella on her hand could not cover the sunlight at all.
Her behavior, coupled with her fourteen-year-old cardamom girl, and her behavior without wearing a hijab on this land and showing off her white and red skin on her neck, naturally aroused the fiery eyes of the Mughal natives around her.
Fortunately, behind her were several strong sailors holding guns and knives, so even if those people were jealous, they would not dare to do anything out of the blue sky. At most, they would just point fingers and say some dirty words in the local indigenous dialect that Song Yifeng could not understand in the distance.
“It’s really hot…”
(?~?)
"But they are not afraid!"
??(′??)???
Although Annie herself doesn't like too hot weather, she is not afraid of heat, and she doesn't have the exaggeration like Song Yifeng's clothes that are almost wrung out of water.
"Let's go!"
?(???*)
"Let's go find something delicious now!"
?*.?(′▽`*)??*.
Anne's own fleet of admiral ran from the warship to this broken port not to come to such smelly places. She was wandering around or watching the scenery everywhere, nor did she come to pay taxes, supplies or dealing with boring dock officials. If the first mate did that, she just wanted to see if there was a good place that could satisfy her appetite and appetite, and specialize in selling delicious food.
"ah?"
"But, where are you looking for it?"
"But I have no appetite at all now."
"Or why, let's find a shade to rest for a while..."
“??”
Song Yifeng was about to propose to rest in the shade of the tree next to the dome hotel in the distance, but when she saw Anne walking towards the city gate regardless of her carelessness, she had no choice but to bite her teeth and follow her with her oil paper umbrella.
"Hello!"
"Annie, wait for me!!"
"Really, my umbrella is about to be sun-dried..."
"Wait for me!"
Seeing Annie just walking forward, Song Yifeng had to hold the oil-paper umbrella in her hand, sighing and complaining, and quickly followed, and was worried that the waterproof paint on the umbrella in her hand would come, because she really felt that they seemed to be starting to soften, as if they were really roasted by the hot sun.
She couldn't even think about it. It was so hot in the Indian Ocean. If she couldn't find the guys Li Huamei and those who had to continue to travel to Africa, she might be sunburned like what she would!
"Wait for me..."
"No!"
"I'm about to have heat stroke..."
The Calicat port city is not big or small. Finally, under the inquiry of the cute little Anne who knows countless languages and is silently threatened by the aggressive armed sailors behind her, the locals who were asked about the directions were kindly instructed to them, outsiders, a large house with a white exterior wall and a dome.
It is one of the best taverns in the local city of Calicatri. Of course, there are the best and most expensive foods available in the local area. Even outsiders who are on board can enjoy various special foods that are difficult for locals to enjoy as long as they have enough gold and silver coins.
but……
Unfortunately, when Annie took Song Yifeng and the sailors to the entrance of the hotel, she was told that someone had booked the room inside today, and then she was not allowed to enter, such as outsiders?
"What?"
!(;?o?)o
"We have been booked here. We have to wait until the distinguished guests inside have finished eating and leave before we can enter. Why?"
Σ(°△ °|||)︴
When Annie heard the dissuasion of the two guys outside the tavern who had their heads wrapped in cloth and knives in their hands, she looked like the guards of someone else's house, exclaimed in dissatisfaction.
"Why?"
(??ˇεˇ??)
You know, Annie has always been very rich. She is more than enough to buy 100 Indian Oceans that she can carry and can take out.
However, she herself never seemed to have done such a kind of careless thing as a whole hotel and inn, and not allowing others to eat!
"ah?"
(???.???)??????
“Who is Chamenlin Aphmad Nagopur?”
(???.???)??????
"I don't know!"
(?╭╮?)
"I don't care what kind of local prince or noble merchant he is. Anyway, I have to go in now, so don't wait for him to finish eating!"
o(*' 〼')o
As she said that, Annie planned to forcibly break through, but soon she was stopped by the two guards again, and then what they said began to become very impolite.
“!!”
!?(?''??)?
"What a pariah, you dare to say it again!"
(??へ??╬)
"You are the subordinates of the fat man inside, not from this tavern, right?"
(▼へ▼メ)
Anne was a little angry.
Of course, she was not angry because she was scolded, but because she had found a place with delicious food, but the other party was angry because she did not let herself in.
"Anne..."
"Oh, let's eat in another place?"
At this time, seeing more soldiers or guards coming out of the tavern, and seeing those people vaguely beginning to surround me and wait for others, although they were not afraid, Song Yifeng, who was worried about suffering losses, came to Annie and whispered.
"no!"
o(*'╭╮′)o
"I'm going to go in every thing I say today, and I'm going to go in now!"
(?╭╮?)
Annie didn't understand. Even a fat man could eat here, why couldn't she? Is she not enough money, or was her small fist not strong enough, or was the ship she parked in the port not big enough and the artillery was not sharp enough?
“Get out of here!”
At this time, maybe the outside movement disturbed the fat man inside, maybe the other party was really full, but anyway, when Annie was about to take action, the guy who was booking the room inside finally walked out with a big belly and a big fat face with a greasy face.
"explain!"
“What’s going on here?”
After the guards wrapped in headscarves made aside, he first walked up and looked at Annie condescendingly, then squinted his eyes and looked at Song Yifeng behind Annie greedily, and finally asked one of the guards domineeringly.
"oh?"
"Are they going in and eat?"
“Um…”
After hearing the reason, he knew that he was offended by the group of outsiders in front of him. The face of the Turkish prince and great merchant of the Mughal Dynasty, Jaemenlin Aphmad Nagopur, turned black.
“Hmm?!”
"Another group of oriental people?"
"snort!"
"A bunch of foreign untouchables!"
Anne's blonde and blue-eyed appearance made Nagopur a little afraid. However, when she saw Song Yifeng's beautiful white and red appearance and the very obvious appearance of the Eastern Ming people, and then looked at the group of followers who were also Eastern people behind the two, he quickly remembered the hateful black-haired woman Li Huamei, who had not been very upset not long ago, and even lost her face.
"Not long ago, that oriental man made me feel so embarrassed. Now there are a group of people coming..."
"go!"
