Jin Yongtai and his group left where they stood and began to walk towards the bustling commercial street outside the port.

Along the way, the changes in Nagasaki brought them great shock and surprise, and all of this changed completely. Especially the Japanese people no longer had the timidity and malnourished dishes on their faces.

What's going on?

But I haven't arrived in Nagasaki for half a year, why did Nagasaki become like this?

If it weren't for seeing the familiar wooden pole on Nagasaki Pier and the Nagasaki Rasacho sign, Kim Yongtai would even think he had come to another place.

"Sir, do you want to take a bus? Rickshaws are absolutely convenient and only require three big money."

"Sir, do you need rice balls? There are fragrant shredded pork and pickled vegetables in it."

"Do you want to stay in a hotel sir? Our Shinzaemon is a new store with very exquisite decoration and very close to the umbrella company, which makes it convenient for you to do business where a businessman with a status like you."

"Sir, do you need to unload the goods? Our Tengji team is willing to serve you!"

As Jin Yongtai and the others walked along the way, people kept coming up to chat with each other, selling some snacks, selling some business to them, or asking them if they had any help.

Oh my God!

The Japanese have become different.

Their opinions are extremely vulgar, and they are all lazy.

When did they become so diligent, they even had a yearning for happiness on their faces?

Could it be that Lord Nagasaki no longer squeezes them?

Otherwise, this matter would be unexplainable.

It was not only the Japanese that Kim Yongtai saw that made him puzzled and surprised, but also after entering the commercial street, Kim Yongtai and the others were shocked even stronger.

The prosperity of the commercial street has shocked Kim Yongtai and the others.

Today, Nagasaki is constantly carrying out construction under the promotion of the administrative staff of the Empire's Ministry of Commerce in Nagasaki.

The first thing to be affected is the commercial street that is very close to the pier. The straight asphalt road is being built, and there are shops, hotels, taverns and bathhouses on both sides of the road that are being built.

Various shops that have been built and put into use are coming and going, and there are constantly in and out, and the liveliness of them are completely incomparable to the previous Nagasaki Commercial Street.

You know, when Kim Yongtai came to Nagasaki half a year ago, there were only two or three taverns.

And there is only one hotel.

When walking on the street, I was always deserted and could not see any pedestrians at all.

Even when I see pedestrians, most of them are ronin and wild samurai, as well as those who are in a hurry.

Occasionally, there are some ronin and wild samurai fighting on the street, which is very bad.

But now, this place has completely changed.

There are many pedestrians on the streets, both men and women.

Although there were people carrying weapons walking on the street, the pedestrians could not see any fear on their faces except to avoid them.

Hmm!

Who are these people holding weapons?

Suddenly, Kim Yongtai thought of this question.

Walking on the commercial street of Nagasaki, Kim Yongtai saw the most imperial soldiers wearing 18th-century European military uniforms. Although there were some samurai and ronin carrying samurai swords, the samurai and ronin could not see the ferocity and rebelliousness of the past on the faces of those samurai and ronin.

Even Kim Yong-tae discovered that when those wearing strange costumes walked past the ronin and the samurai, the ronin and the samurai bent down to salute to show their respect.

Who are these people?

How can they gain the respect of the Japanese samurai and the ronin?

You know, the samurai and ronin here in Japan are quite xenophobic.

Especially the samurai class, it is extremely xenophobic.

Maybe I'm ignoring something.

The changes in Nagasaki may have nothing to do with the Ming Empire, but because of these people wearing weird clothes.

A flash of inspiration appeared in Jin Yongtai's mind, and suddenly such an idea came to mind.

It seems that the flags on the huge warship poles I saw at the pier were a red flag.

Although there are five patterns on the flag, one big, four small, on it, he is sure that it is definitely not the pattern used in the Ming Empire army.

But although I saw the flag at that time, I didn’t think much about it.

But after walking on the streets of Nagasaki Commercial Street, he saw so many soldiers from the Song Empire on the street, and Kim Yongtai began to connect all of this.

"Zhao Zhenchang, maybe we were all wrong. The changes in Nagasaki are not because of the Japanese, nor because of the Ming Dynasty, but other people."

Kim Yongtai asked a team of imperial soldiers to pass by, took his companions to the porch of a shop selling puppets, and then said to his companions who were following him.

The man named Zhao Zhenchang was stunned after hearing this, then looked at the imperial soldiers shopping, and then fell silent and thought about it.

"Maybe you're right, we're all wrong. The Japanese cannot have such a means, and the Ming Dynasty wouldn't help Nagasaki's development in this way. It seems that we're about to find the truth."

After figuring this out, Zhao Zhenchang looked up at Jin Yongtai and said.

"Several people, do you want to check out the products in our store?"

While Kim Yongtai and Zhao Zhenchang were talking, a voice came from behind him.

When the two looked back, they saw an old man wearing a Japanese businessman kimono looking at them with a smile.

"No, we're just standing here." Jin Yongtai shook his head and said that he was not interested in the products of the puppet doll store. The smiling old man didn't care about it. After all, he also realized that these Goryeo people would not buy his puppet dolls.

The reason why he came over to talk to Kim Yongtai was because Kim Yongtai blocked the gate of his store and had more or less impact on his business.

"My lord, if you are not interested in the products in this store, please let me ask you to bring your people to make a move? You just happened to block the door of my store, which would affect my business."

The owner of the puppet doll shop is right at this time.

Kim Yongtai's face turned red and he felt a little embarrassed.

Yes, he took his own guard and his companions, but he just stood at the gate of someone else's store. This really had an impact on someone else's store.

"I'm sorry, sorry. We're leaving now. We're extremely sorry for disturbing your business."

Although the Goryeo people have deep hatred with the Japanese, Kim Yongtai came here to do business, so it is impossible to express this emotion.

At the same time, he must be polite and not offend the Japanese on the territory of the Japanese.

Unless he is a treacherous person, he would never do this.

He is a Korean man who makes trouble on the Japanese territory. Can he still have good fruits for him?

The answer is obvious, so Kim Yong-tae has to show this.

The owner of the puppet doll shop did not make things difficult for him, after all, everyone is just asking for money.

Since the other party has apologized, what else can he say?

The owner of the puppet doll shop looked at Kim Yongtai and said to him: "You are from Goryeo, sir, right? Are you from Nagasaki doing business?"

Jin Yongtai and the others wore unique clothing from the Korean people, so it is not wrong to judge their origin from this point of view. It is not that the owner of this puppet doll shop has such a vicious vision.

At the same time, foreigners who can appear in Nagasaki are basically businessmen.

Otherwise, who would have come to Nagasaki if he has nothing to do?

The owner of this puppet doll shop is a local resident of Nagasaki. He has seen too many people like Kim Yongtai.

He was just a civilian before and had never dealt with these maritime merchants.

But since the Song Empire came, their lives have changed a lot.

People like him can also use their skills to open shops in the most prosperous places in Nagasaki.

Of course, the funds for opening a store are loaned from the Umbrella Company, and the Umbrella Company also owns certain equity in its own store.

For this kind of cooperation, the owner of this puppet doll shop has nothing to accept.

You know, who would believe him and lend him money to open a store if someone like him?

At the same time, most of the puppets and dolls in his store were bought by the umbrella company.

It can be said that his puppet and doll shop is largely dependent on umbrella companies to survive.

The Umbrella Company is the largest commercial company in the Song Empire.

Therefore, he can be regarded as a person who has a relationship with the empire.

Under this psychological influence, the owner of this puppet doll shop would ask them a few questions every time he had the chance to chat with foreigners.

You know, there is also the shadow of the Imperial Intelligence Department.

Yes, every foreigner came to Nagasaki. As a local resident of Nagasaki, they had to test each other.

Once they realize that the other party may have malicious intentions, they will report it to the intelligence department.

At the same time, the Imperial Intelligence Department will also give them certain rewards.

Moreover, the Intelligence Department also made it clear to these shop owners in Nagasaki that they could live a prosperous life under the rule of the empire.
