Valley Emperor

"Bai Er, after you go to the trade area, don't make trouble, don't go to inquire about any news, I need your relatives to find the Tang people to trade, and it is absolutely not allowed to make troubles!"

Bai Er, who was still crying and grimacing, was feeling awkward at this moment. Although these Tang people's clothes were comfortable to wear, they still made him feel a little awkward.

He is an accountant under Alvin's command. He is mainly responsible for commercial trade on weekdays. He sells the looted goods, exchanges them for funds, and then distributes them to the pirates. To trade with the Datang people, he is naturally an unobtainable role.

But before in the port area, although they were able to trade with Datang people, they could only trade through intermediaries in the trading hall. Not to mention the trouble, and they had to pay a lot of service fees. Yes, because of the inability to directly contact Datang people, this type of trade is prone to mistakes.

In order to ensure speed and safety, Alvin sent him to bring another person into the trade area to directly trade with Datang people.

Hearing the boss speak, he immediately said: "Boss, don't worry, after entering the trade area, I will go directly to the trading floor, and then find those Great Tang people to trade!"

Alvin sent Baier and another confidant, Luke, to the entrance of the trade area. He watched them pay a lot of customs clearance fees with his own eyes, and only returned after entering the trade area after inspection.

After Baier and Luke passed the first inspection level, they did not actually enter the trade area for the first time, but were taken to a zinc room for the two of them, and asked them to wash again. , Baier defended that they had already washed them, but a Portuguese employee who brought them in said with a blank face: "Then wash them too, from head to toe, especially the hair, don't expect to be able to If you pass the test, I will personally watch you wash!"

"If you don't wash it, you will be refused entry to the trade zone, and the customs clearance fee will not be refunded!"

Europeans these days are too resistant to bathing, their bodies are so dirty that Datang people can't stand it, in order to make their noses feel better, it is also to prevent them from carrying products, especially infectious products, into the trade zone , this entry inspection is inauthentic.

In desperation, Baier and Luke were forced to take the third bath in their lives!

In their entire lives, the first bath was the baptism after birth, the second bath was forced by Alvin yesterday, and now the third time is here.

Feelings of humiliation and grievance flooded into his heart, which made Bai Er quite uncomfortable.

However, he had to bear the heavy responsibility, and honestly took the brush to brush on his body over and over again, looking at the black water marks left on his body, he thought: It's over, the last bit of protection on the body The layer has also been washed off, maybe it won't be long before I contract the Black Death and other terrifying diseases!

When they were taking a bath, Pang Coo, a Portuguese man wearing a mask, showed a look of contempt. It was unreasonable for the barbarians in Xiazhou to let them take a bath, and they were so resistant to cleanliness.

Pang Coo, formerly known as Ludwig, is a serious Portuguese, but since three years ago, he has been anxious about anyone who said he was Portuguese.

His mother was a woman who did a **** business in Lisbon. As for who his father was, his mother didn't know, let alone he himself. He lived at the bottom of the society since he was a child. After his mother died of illness, he was Go be an honorable sailor and pirate!

Then he moved to Malacca. At that time, he was in his thirties. He didn't want to take the risk of wandering. He settled down in Malacca, married a local indigenous woman, and found an ordinary job in Malacca.

But it didn't take long for Malacca to be captured by the Tang Dynasty. At that time, there were many Portuguese in Malacca. Those soldiers and officials were naturally regarded as prisoners of war, but Ludwig, an ordinary civilian, was not attacked. They were tortured, and they were only driven out of the city to live in the port area for these remnants of Europeans. Naturally, their living conditions were not much better there.

Later, after the Tang Dynasty occupied the regions of Yu and southern Africa, the aboriginal exchanges with many European countries increased sharply.

But it's too dangerous to deal with European natives in contemporary times. Nima doesn't take a bath and runs around with a whole body.

If colonial officials dared to come into close contact with them, they would contract some kind of disease in minutes.

At the urging of colonial officials, the Empire granted requests for overseas territories to employ native workers.

When officials of Datang recruited natives who knew Chinese in Malacca and other places, Ludwig signed up for survival and was successfully selected. Although he was said to be an employee of Datang, from that time on, he began to gradually I regard myself as a Tang Dynasty person, even if he does not have the nationality of the Tang Dynasty, and it is impossible for him to obtain the nationality of the Tang Dynasty in this life, he only takes temporary residence, and this temporary residence is only because he originally lived in Malacca. civilians with special permission.

If it is a foreign native who wants to get this temporary residency, then it is much more difficult!

Well, it's impossible to say through speculation.

Even if he is only temporarily stationed, it does not prevent him from considering himself as a Datang person, especially after working for the Datang people, he feels more and more powerful and advanced in Datang.

Well, people always yearn for beautiful things!

Therefore, Ludweixian, like many foreign natives who received temporary residency in Datang because of the war and other reasons, regarded himself as a Tang Dynasty and was proud of this identity.

Later, he directly changed his name, and now his name is not Ludwig, but Pang Coo.

This name was given to him by his immediate superior, Team Leader Li.

However, his immediate superior, Team Leader Li, is also a temporary resident, but he is not a European, but a Persian. This man went to Nanyang in his early years to seek a living. He has lived in the Guangzhou Trade Zone for many years and can read and write. Tang Wen, so Datang people also valued this team leader Li, and made him a team leader.

Ludwig, who changed his name to Pang Coo, has been in South Africa for almost a year. During this year, he mainly worked in the port area in the early stage, and was later transferred to the inspection and inspection work in the trade area.

During this period, he saw a lot of those people from Xizhou. At the beginning, he would regard the Europeans, especially the Portuguese, as his compatriots. Still sympathetic.

But after a long time, after seeing many Europeans who are filthy, and whose way of thinking is incomparable, the sympathy in his heart has completely disappeared.

How could these barbarians be their own compatriots!

Absolutely not!

In the past, he might have persuaded Baier and Luke to wash well, pay attention to personal hygiene, and avoid getting sick, but now, he just keeps his face and doesn't say much, he loves to wash, Don't wash the **** out!

Now he is too lazy to talk nonsense with these stubborn and ignorant Europeans!

If he washes honestly, he will pass it. If he doesn't wash, or he doesn't wash carefully enough, he just rushes back.

If you want to enter the trade zone, you must be beautiful!

Bai Er and Luke both shouldered great responsibilities. Although they were forced to take a shower again and brushed it over and over again, they still held back and just washed silently.

As for the contempt of Pang Coo towards them at this time, they have no intention to pay attention.

Pang Coo monitored them for a full half of the swipe, and when the bath water turned into clear water, he nodded and said, "Okay, put on your clothes and come with me!"

Pang Coo took them outside a row of houses and entered one of them.

Bai Er saw that he was leading him in, and the Portuguese with a straight face all the way was bowing at this time, saying something to the person inside with a flattering expression~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Then the Portuguese turned to him The two waved, and Bai Er was the one who saw a man in a white robe, with a mask and gloves, and was wrapped up in front of them. Although he couldn't see his face clearly, he could still see this. People's black hair, black eyes, and yellow skin, combined with the few times they've seen Datang people before, without exception, they are all so tightly wrapped, Bai Er can guess that this is a whole of the Tang Dynasty.

I saw this strangely dressed Tang man first carefully looked at the two of them, and then said something.

But Bai Er did not understand what this person said, because this person spoke Chinese!

At this time, Pang Coo, who was on the side, said, "Take off your clothes and let the adults check, and strip them all!"

"Take off your clothes again?" Oh my god, I just took off my clothes and took a shower. Now I have to take off my clothes again. What's with the ivory? Not like ah, check? what to check for?

Bai Er hesitated for a moment, and Pang Coo next to him said, "Don't linger, your time is precious, take it off!"

Although Bai Er didn't understand, he still took off his clothes honestly. If he didn't take off, he would probably be kicked out immediately.

After they took off their clothes, the tightly wrapped Datang man stepped forward, stared at them for a long time, and asked them to tear their hair away.

However, the man never touched their body with his hands, even with gloves.

Finally, he nodded and said something. At this time, Pang Coo took Bai Er and Luke out, and then gave them a paper: "This is a pass, with this card, you can stay in the trade area. Three days, and rent an inn, and you must leave after three days!"

Holding this flimsy piece of paper, Bai Er only felt that this pass was as heavy as a thousand catties!

Not easy to come by!
