The setting sun gradually settled in winter, and the sea that had experienced a naval battle gradually returned to calm, leaving only the blue sea surface that seemed to never retreat.**

At this moment, a long table had been set up on Zhu Qinfeng's deck of the big ship. Several oil lamps were lit.

Yes, there will be a European-style dinner here.

Zhu Qinfeng sat next to the long table, with his fiancée Lilu on his right, and then another beautiful black-haired lady. On the left of Zhu Qinfeng was Zhengliang. Next to Zhengliang was a burly white man. It seemed that this white man was about 27 years old. This white man was also known to Zhengliang not long after he boarded the ship. His name was Ander Tanas von Habsburg. According to Ander himself, he was a distant relative of the Habsburg dynasty in Spain. The last one was a Ming merchant, Zomoyang. He was very young, about 23 years old. I don’t know how he met Zhu Qinfeng. Zhengliang only knew that many of the food on this ship were supplemented by this merchant.

Speaking of which, the people on this ship are a collection of multi-ethnic groups. Zhu Qinfeng is a Venetian, Ander is a Spanish, and Zhengliang is a Ri himself, and Zuo Moyang is a Ming country. Fortunately, these people speak Chinese, otherwise they really don’t know how to communicate.

"Everyone, toast to the guests we visited today." Zhu Qinfeng, as the host, stood up first and raised a glass filled with light red wine to toast everyone.

The others also picked up their glasses and stood up, shook to the owner, and then drank the glass of wine in their hands.

The toast is over. Dinner has officially begun.

Several maids held dishes and placed them on the long table one by one. Seeing such actions, Zheng Jing couldn't help but feel a little surprised. According to his understanding, the European nobles in the Middle Ages paid great attention to eating etiquette. Generally, before eating each dish, they would hand the guests a shallow water dish and towel to the guests, so that they could wipe their hands. The feast was almost exclusive to men, and only the most noble guests could attend. In order to maintain dignity and elegance, the host's wife often had to hide aside and eat with her followers. At this time, the social class was clear and patriarchal power was paramount, which also affected the etiquette of the table. The younger generation should serve the elders, the young men should serve the elderly, and men should also take care of women. In order to avoid the dishes from tainting the ladies, men should avoid the female behavior when eating.

However, the scene Zhengliang saw now was very different from what he knew, but this was a good thing for him. After all, if he followed the etiquette he knew, it would be too rigid when eating.

After the host and the guests started eating, the attendants and subordinates around the deck also started eating, including Liu Le, who is a retainer of Zhengliang. This was the first time that Liu Le attended a special dinner in the family, which seemed very surprised. But one thing he was sure of was that as long as he was by Zhengliang's side, there would always be some new and bizarre things happening.

They toasted each other again for a few more times, and everyone's conversation began to rise.

"Your Excellency Zhengliang, you are different from other guys." At this time, the master Zhu Qinfeng said first. "Other guys always look loyal on the surface, but they are very deceitful inside. But you are very interesting."

Everyone stopped eating and looked at Zhu Qinfeng, looking forward to his next sentence.

"You are just a straightforward deception guy," Zhu Qinfeng said in the final conclusion.

"Hahaha" the people around laughed.

"Look, that guy," Zhu Qinfeng pointed to Zuo Moyang in the last seat and said, "That guy is very clear. Just like the fox that the Ming people call."

"Hahaha" This time, even the servants not far away laughed.

Zhengliang smiled secretly. Although he was a little slandered about Zhu Qinfeng's evaluation of himself just now, he agreed with his evaluation of Zuo Moyang. After contacting Zuo Moyang this afternoon, Zhengliang discovered that this Ming Dynasty businessman was a slow-witted and thoughtful person. Once he thought about it, as long as he spoke, he would be like a surging river and his eloquence was quite impressive.

"What a cute little fox is, how can I say this?" Lilu, the hostess, spoke at this time, and she wanted to take over the power of the little fox. In fact, Zhengliang once thought that this was the legendary sea woman Lilu that appeared in later games. Because she was also a Dutch and met Zhu Qinfeng in Amsterdam. However, Zhengliang received information about this beautiful woman only, so even now he could not judge that Lilu was Bililu.

As soon as Lilu's words came out, everyone teased again.

"To put it, the Ming Dynasty is also my hometown." Zhu Qinfeng drank two glasses of wine and raised other topics. Then he began to talk about his ancestors being descendants of Emperor Jianwen. In order to avoid the search of the Three Treasures eunuchs fleet, the family migrated several times in Europa, and later settled and fought in Venice. Then he began to talk about his maritime adventure story.

"Hmph, as long as I have enough people, I will definitely defeat the Governor's Office of the South China Sea." When talking about Nanyang, Zhu Qinfeng had always held a grudge because he had been treated unfairly by the Spanish in Nanyang, so he thought of a way to prepare for revenge. He even expressed his idea of ​​borrowing troops from Portugal after returning to Europe, launching the Third Crusade, conquering Nanyang, and killing the Spanish away.

Zhengliang was unable to express his opinion on Zhu Qinfeng's idea. After all, Zhengliang's current task was to take care of his own one-point land before he could think of other things.

But Zhengliang has no ideas, which does not mean that others have no ideas. Seeing that others are despising their own country, Andel, as a Spaniard, felt unhappy and sneered: "Your Excellency, don't underestimate the Spanish's force."

Andel was actually right. Now it is about to enter the Age of Discovery. The Portuguese, the Spaniards, the Dutch and the gradually rising Englishmen staged a maritime war together. The Spaniards were the most powerful existence during this period, and even became the "Invincible Armada" for a period of time, which shows how powerful its maritime power is.

"You damn nobleman, have you forgotten who drove you out and finally relied on Angel to make a living with me?" Seeing that someone had objections to his thoughts, Zhu Qinfeng was immediately dissatisfied, so he laughed and scolded at Ander half-jokingly.

As a distant relative of the Habsburg family, Ander no longer has a noble title. With the qualifications he had earned from his early years of joining the military, he served as the captain of the Spanish Musketeers. He was meticulous in military affairs. Later, he was transferred to the Spanish American colony and had fierce conflicts with the colony. After reading Marco Polo's travel notes, he decided to go to the east to hunt for gold. He was unable to enter the Ming Dynasty because the Ming Dynasty was closed to the country. He happened to meet Zhu Qinfeng's ship in Macau, and his wife Angel Lilike was Lilu's playmate when she was a girl, so he temporarily became the captain of the musketeers on Zhu Qinfeng's ship under the persuasion of his wife. In fact, as a man, he was still dissatisfied with his current situation, but men could bend and stretched. For the sake of his wife's food and clothing, he never expressed any dissatisfaction with this.

"I said, Ander! You don't know yet? Your Excellency Zhengliang has a large territory and there is a lot of gold and silver there. Why don't you get a job there?" Zhu Qinfeng continued to say jokingly. He and Ander are familiar with him, so such a joke can be made.

Zhengliang was stunned when he heard this. The territory that Zhu Qinfeng said was true, but the large amount of gold he came from there? At least there is no one for the time being. Of course, there is indeed 300 taels of gold left in the ship below. This is true.

Compared to Zhengliang's not caring, Ander next to him was different. He saw his eyes lit up and he looked at Zhengliang thoughtfully.

The dinner was held very smoothly and everyone was having a good time. Zhengliang took the opportunity to invite everyone, especially Zhu Qinfeng, to visit the territory. Zhu Qinfeng also agreed readily. At the same time, he asked Zhengliang mysteriously whether there were many beauties in his territory, and it would be better to be a virgin. But before Zhengliang could return, he was pulled back by Lilu, who was beside him, probably because he had to serve his family law. I wonder if Zhu Qinfeng could go to bed tonight? Zhengliang thought with a bad taste.

After the banquet, Zhengliang was alone on the deck to enjoy the scenery. Liu Le had already returned to the small boat beside the big hull to report the news, and conveyed to Zhengliang's subordinates there that the big ship would visit the Luo family territory with them. After all, with this big ship as an escort, there would basically be no more danger along the way, so that everyone could sleep peacefully tonight.

"Hello, Lord Zhengliang!" At this time, a harsh Chinese sounded from behind Zhengliang.

Zhengliang turned around and found that Ander had walked behind him at some point.

"Haha, Ander, hello!" Zhengliang said with a smile and a respectful reverie.

"Your Excellency Zhengliang, I came here uninvited, and I came to recommend myself to you," Ander said. This afternoon, he already knew that Zhengliang had a lot of territory in the place he was about to arrive. In addition, after Zhu Qinfeng's praise in the evening, he suddenly felt that it was good to get a position at Zhengliang. After the banquet, the idea became stronger and stronger, so he told his wife Angel. Lilyke. Angel actually realized that his man had always been unsuccessful in his heart. Now that his man had a dream, she certainly supported him. After getting his wife's support, he came to Zhengliang to recommend himself.

"Self-recommendation?" Zhengliang was stunned. He had no idea that the other party came to visit him to recommend him.
