    While Li Dan was drinking tea, he was looking at Li Xiao, and he was also calculating Li Xiao's current status in his heart.

    Etchu, Noto, Hida, Kaga, Sado, Wakasa, and Tamba Hankoku, a total of seven countries, with a population of nearly one million, nearly 10,000 troops (it is worth standing), and 40,000 military households capable of fighting.  .

    How can a person from the Ming Dynasty struggle to this day in this foreign country known as Fuso?

    Such a talented person is actually a military commander in the imperial court, and it is difficult to find him.

    I heard that there is no peace in all directions of the imperial court. If Li Xiao is among them, he will definitely be able to stabilize the country and achieve great achievements.

    Li Dan put down the Longjing tea again, looked at Li Xiaoyan and said: "Master Li, I heard that the Japanese country had intentionally peeked eastward in the past, and the result was that Emperor Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty defeated them at the Baicun River. Now, after hundreds of years of chaos, I heard that the Japanese general  With a capable Lord, we can reunite them all.¡±

    "When the time comes, I will be able to look forward to Shu. If I am the leader of the Japanese country, I want to go further and intend to get involved in North Korea or even the Ming Dynasty. Where will Mr. Li go?"

    Li Xiao saw Li Dan looking straight at him, his eyes like knives.

    Li Xiao has never given a direct answer to such direct remarks.

    But now he wanted to win over the heart of the future overlord of the Seven Seas. He immediately answered without hesitation, saying: "Although I am in the Japanese country, I have never forgotten my identity as a Ming countryman, and my children and grandchildren will not forget it."  Forget, if one day, someone in the Japanese country intends to do evil to the Ming Dynasty, no matter who it is, I will attack them!"

    "Well said!" Li Dan said with a loud high-five. He flicked his sleeves, bowed to Li Xiaozuo and said, "Master Li, you are noble and upright, please accept my bow."

    Li Xiao nodded.  He said: "Brother Li, I admire you. Your Excellency was arrested by the court, but your loyalty has not changed. I admire you."

    Li Dan nodded.  He said: "Ashamed, ashamed. The way to make a living at sea depends on the joint efforts of brothers, so we can't abandon it and embark on the road of hostility with the imperial court. But I have also read books since I was a child, and I will never dare to argue between Hua and Yi.  Forgot."

    Li Xiao nodded and said, "That's exactly it."

    Then Li Dan suddenly said: "Master Li, please forgive me for being presumptuous. I heard that you are from a hundred households in Funingwei. Would you like to visit your family in Fujian? I can"

    Li Xiao¡¯s expression changed slightly when he heard what Li Dan said.

    At this moment, with his current status, he is not worried about the other party revealing his identity.

    At that moment, Li Xiao directly interrupted the other party and said: "I am not from a hundred households in Funingwei."

    Li Dan was slightly startled when he heard this.  He lowered his head immediately and said no more words.

    Of course, Li Xiao would not explain anything, or make up other lies to cover it up. With his current status, there was no need to say anything more to Li Dan, but in any case, he was from the Ming Dynasty.  Li Dan would not doubt it.

    At the moment, Li Xiao and Li Dan exchanged a few words and suddenly smiled.  He said to Li Dan mysteriously: "I have an important treasure that I can give to my brother."

    Seeing that Li Xiao was serious about his matter, Li Dan couldn't help but be slightly surprised, but he thought that since Li Xiao said this, there must be something different.  Give yourself a glimpse.

    At that moment, Li Xiao ordered someone to bring a cylinder.

    Li Xiao opened the lid of the cylinder himself.  Take out a thick piece of paper from the tube.

    Li Xiao slowly opened the paper, and Li Dan's eyes widened. After Li Xiao showed the whole paper to Li Dan.

    Li Dan's expression was slightly startled, but then he returned to his normal expression and said: "Master Li, is this a sea map of the whole world? But it seems different from what I have seen before."

    It was Li Xiao¡¯s turn to be surprised.

    Yes, the map in his hand is the "World Map". It is roughly drawn by Li Xiao based on his memory. Although it cannot be too detailed, it is also the world map closest to the truth in the world.

    As far as Li Xiao knows, in this era, thanks to missionaries, the Japanese people saw this world map earlier than the Ming people.

    Four years later in the Ming Dynasty, when the missionary Matteo Ricci presented the "Kunyu Wanguoquantu" to Emperor Wanli, it was the first world map that can be recorded in historical data.

    Li Dan smiled and said: "We brothers who run on the sea often have to deal with those Red Yi ghosts. I have seen a lot of their charts. I think although the Red Yi ghosts are vulgar, they are also capable. Just  I bought a few pictures like this and look at them when I have free time.¡±

    The Red Barbarians mentioned by Li Dan were the Netherlands of this era. The Dutch East India Company was also a powerful maritime force on the Malacca Sea.

    The real Dutch East India Company had not yet been established at this time, but its pioneers??Has been following the Portuguese here for a long time in Malacca.

    After Li Xiao understood the reason, he said to Li Dan: "My picture is different from the picture in the hands of the Hongyi people. Look at this corner."

    Li Xiao pointed at the Australian mainland on the map and said: "Thousands of miles away from Malacca, there is a continent. It is thousands of miles wide and can accommodate millions of people.  live."

    When Li Dan heard this, he was surprised and said: "There is such a place, so why is it that no one in the world knows about it, not even the Hongyi and Franji people know about it."

    Li Xiao smiled and said: "Of course I bought this secretly from a missionary. Brother, I would like to try it. The fertility of this place is ten times that of the Japanese country."

    Li Dan hesitated for a moment, his face serious.

    Li Xiao understands that Chinese people have a fixed mindset and are unwilling to leave their homeland. It is indeed difficult for them to stay away from the ocean and live in Australia.

    "If they didn't have this courage and belief, Li Xiao would not be able to impose his will on them.

    However, Li Xiao feels that his mission has been accomplished and he has opened a door for Li Dan and the others, but it depends on Li Dan and the others whether they are willing to step out of this door and move towards a new world.

    Li Dan finally said: "I am very grateful for Mr. Li's kindness. I cannot give an immediate reply on this matter. I need to discuss it with my brothers before making a decision."

    Li Xiao smiled and said: "That's very good, come and have tea."

    Li Xiao and Li Dan had another cup of tea, and then Li Dan took his leave.

    Li Xiao saw that the other party seemed to be distracted and didn't know what decision he would make.

    While Li Xiao was drinking tea, His Excellency the Tenshu came closer and reported: "Yakata-den, Lord Maeda, his wife Osomatsu, and the three daughters of Princess Oda Ieichi came to ask for an audience."

    Hearing the names of these people, Li Xiao immediately guessed the reasons and said: "Let them come and see them."

    Not long ago, Tian Toshiya, Asong, and the three Asai sisters knelt down and saluted Li Xiao.

    During the salute, Li Xiao saw Ah Shi's youngest daughter, who seemed to straighten her body and somewhat unwilling to salute Li Xiao.

    Suddenly, this little girl, who was only six years old, stood up regardless of her sister's obstruction, pointed one finger at Li Xiao, and said loudly: "This man is the murderer of our mother, why do you kneel to him?"

    This little girl¡¯s bold words immediately made Maeda Toshiie, Osomatsu, and her two older sisters all change their minds.

    "Bold, Ajiang, don't apologize to the house."

    "I don't want it, even if I die." The little girl from the Asai family pouted stubbornly.

    Seeing that Osomatsu¡¯s dissuasion was ineffective, cold sweat dripped from Toshiie Maeda¡¯s forehead. He took a few steps forward and knelt down, saying to Li Xiaoyan: ¡°My lord, the little girl is ignorant, please don¡¯t take offense.¡±

    Li Xiao looked at this six-year-old little girl with a picturesque look on her face, and then thinking about the legendary experience in her history, she couldn't help but feel that the saying that you can see old age at the age of three is a bit reliable.

    "Your name is A Jiang, Asai Jiang, right?"

    Li Xiao spoke with a straight face.

    Ah Song rushed to answer and said: "Reply"

    Li Xiao waved his head, indicating that Asong didn¡¯t need to say anything, and looked towards the Qianjing River.

    Asai Jiang looked at Li Xiao, but after all, he still felt a little hairy in his heart, and said: "Yes, I am Asai Bizen's daughter, Jiang."

    "Well, Li Xiao nodded, turned to look at Maeda Toshiya, and said: "This little girl can be outspoken and may have a good home in the future. You should take good care of her."

    Maeda Toshiie and Asatsu were all overjoyed when they heard that Li Xiao didn't care. They both knelt down and said, "Thank you very much, Yakata-den."

    Li Xiao then turned his head and looked at the other two women.

    The two men glanced at Li Xiao, and then an older woman wearing fire clothes took the lead and said calmly: "See the House of Houses, I am Chacha."

    When another woman saw Li Xiao, she was obviously very frightened. Her body was trembling a little and she said, "See Wu Xingdian, I am Ah Chu."

    Seeing this, Li Xiao nodded slightly. The three Asai sisters really had their own characteristics, so he nodded slightly.

    Because of his role in winning over the Maeda Toshi family and destroying the Oda family, Li Xiao would not do anything to these three women.

    Of course, their resentment towards Li Xiao because of the death of their mother is indelible, and Li Xiao cannot easily resolve it. How to arrange the fate of these three people at the moment is indeed a bit difficult for Li Xiao to calculate.

    "But there is no theorem in this troubled world. Later,Lai Chacha was not married to Hashiba Hideyoshi. At that time, Hashiba Hideyoshi was the murderer who attacked Otani Castle and forced Asai Nagamasa to commit suicide.

    At that moment, Li Xiaoyan said: "The two countries are at war, and each is its own master. I came to attack Beizhizhuang City on the orders of my master's family. It is also a matter of loyalty. There is nothing I can do about the death of your mother."

    "But being resentful towards me will not hurt me, nor will it help you in your future lives. Therefore, if you can understand what I am saying today, just understand it. If you can't understand it, then forget about it."

    At the moment Li Xiao waved his sleeves, Maeda Toshiie, Osomatsu and the others all bowed to Li Xiao again as if they had received an amnesty, and then left with the three Asai sisters.

    Before leaving, Qian Jingjiang turned his head and stared at Li Xiao carefully with his big eyes.

    Li Xiao just smiled slightly and responded with a smile.

    At this moment, Li Xiao suddenly thought that with his intervention, the experiences of the three Asai sisters at this moment would be different from those in history. I wonder where they will end up?
