(Thanks to Yuyu Yuyu, himandhim for his reward and support)

[The land of China is vast and vast, with everything, peace and prosperity in all the world, unparalleled national strength, and barbarians come to pay tribute] - This is the perception of the emperor, officials, marquis, wealthy merchants, and landlords.

[Internal troubles, blind arrogance, unwillingness to make progress, corruption, extravagance; external troubles, Japanese pirates invade coastal people, and the West is rapidly expanding itself through long voyages] - This is the perception of Li Huamei and his confidants.

Although Li Huamei can understand the reason for the establishment of the "Sea Ban Policy" at the beginning of the founding of the country, to this day, as the navy admiral, she believes that this strategy of conquering the country is inappropriate and will make China lag behind the world little by little.

Of course, the Chinese country's national strength at this point is very strong. Even if it is going downhill and Western countries are going uphill, it is likely that Li Huamei will not be surpassed by Western countries until a hundred years later... However, Li Huamei is not the kind of person who "who cares about the flood after my mother dies." She is loyal to the emperor and patriotism and loves the nation more. She is unwilling to become a "Western power" and come to bully future generations one day.

Therefore, she has been working hard to change this situation and hopes that China will keep up with the development of the world.

Changing the emperor's concept and abolishing the sea ban policy, she, a small navy admiral, could not do it, and she did not even have many opportunities to meet the emperor; letting all officials stop being corrupt, it would be impossible to do it if they drink too much, and it would harm the interests of the entire bureaucratic class; leading subordinates to rebellion and overthrow the backward China, she would not do such a traitor... In the end, she would be disobedient to the orders of the outside king and ignore the bans of the court to go to sea to fight against Japanese pirates.

However, the arrival of "The God of Wealth Chamber of Commerce" today made Li Huamei feel a little thoughtful.

"Admiral, this strange big ship is definitely a problem! It has no sails or oars, but it has an amazing speed!" The older adjutant stared at the "God of Fortune" which was following their fleet with a worry. They originally planned to slow down and take it with them, but they didn't expect that they couldn't pull the distance at full speed now, and they didn't know how high the other party's maximum speed was.

"I've guessed this a long time ago." Li Huamei recalled the words and deeds of Leeds and his wives and concubines. The other party must be quite confident, at least not to be timid in her Li family fleet.

"Admiral, are we really going to take them back to Yangzhou?! This is too dangerous, I'm worried..." The adjutant would not say that he thought the Li family fleet would lose, but it was also true that he did not want to be an enemy of such an unknown opponent.

"Authentic, they are dangerous, but their risk duration is limited."

The defeat of Spain's invincible fleet in the Mediterranean, dealing with slave traders in Africa, and easily sinking Japanese pirates in the East China Sea, proving that they have extraordinary strength, and also proving that they are not good babies. However, no matter how disobedient they are, their actions in the Mediterranean, Africa, Indian Ocean, and Southeast Asia are just "procurement of large quantities of goods and leave without any nostalgia after the purchase."

Even if there is a risk of "inducing a wolf into the house", it is just a "evil wolf who leaves obediently within a limited time". Moreover, Li Huamei never intended to let Leeds and his group do their own arbitrary actions and move on.

"I'm even thinking about how to separate myself from them so as not to cause trouble one day... Humph, even if the court takes the lead and orders me to supervise them, the responsibility will be on me if an accident occurs..." Li Huamei was able to climb to this position. In addition to the family Yu Yin, she also has various skills in dealing with people, and she also needs to protect herself.

"Admiral...why do you have to take such a risk?" The adjutant still wanted Leeds to get out of the Japanese pirates. He would rather not let the gold and lapis lazuli they sold half-sell, than to let Li Huamei, who was probably the most visionary in China, fall into disaster.

"Reason?" Li Huamei gently tweaked her hair and looked at the golden ingot in the distance. "I have intuition that this ship and that man can let His Majesty and all officials see the 'outside world' and break their self-confidence."

What she could not do was accomplished by Leeds, dressed in the skin of a foreigner.

This is more important than anything else.

———————————————————————————————

Of course, Leeds and Li Huamei are not familiar with each other now, so Lord Xiang Feihu will not say these words in his heart. Leeds has no way of knowing these curves of intestines.

only,

"Thinking in the good direction, the beautiful admiral needs us to make a lot of money and make contributions, and his performance improves and becomes promoted and rich; thinking in the good or bad direction, what is the beautiful admiral intending to use us to do, this kind of thing is special; thinking in the bad direction, after we arrive at her base Yangzhou, she will set a trap and attack the ship one night." Li Huamei said that it does not mean that Leeds does not want it. Leeds' stupidity is not reflected in intelligence, "So, what do you think? What do you do after the past?"

"That!" 9s raised his hand high and got Leeds' nod, and asked, "It seems that there is no good thing. Why do we still have to follow us? Isn't it better to change a place? That one called 'Osaka' is a port in another country, and the location seems to be quite good."

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone looked over with helpless eyes.

"???" 9s doesn't think this problem is strange.

Lyon reached out and put his hand on 9s' shoulders and shook his head: "Newbie, you don't understand your young master, just stay there for another year or two."

"Oh...oh..." 9s looked confused.

"I always feel like I was criticized by a group of people invisibly," Leeds shook his head and looked at Jing Tian, ​​"Master, tell me."

"No matter what she plans to do, we just want to make a big purchase! This will not change!" Because it is a country with a relatively high similarity to its hometown, Jing Tian is full of interest, so he cannot change the procurement plan because of this.

"Can you respond to changes with the same change... It's okay, anyway, the gap in strength is obvious, and there is nothing to be prepared for." Leeds nodded, "Let's see what the beautiful admiral wants to do~~"

Knowing that the matter was over, Zhang Jing couldn't help but say a little sad: "Beautiful Admiral, the beautiful Admiral~ You might not think about attacking Admiral Li again, right?"

"Speaking of this, I just forgot to inquire whether this world is also 'men with wives and concubines'." Murong Jiu added, with a sarcasm.

"Sorry, I'm sorry, if the character is too difficult to guide, please allow me to give up." Li Huamei's appearance has reached the passing line of the beauty in Leeds's heart, but her personality... Forget it, such a heroic and heroic woman should not be bound by the relationship between men and women.

"Hmph~~" Zhang Jing and Murong Jiu's expressions were better.

"However, I will try my best to search for other girls with super beautiful appearances after I get ashore~"

"You guy--!"
