Ming dynasty grand dude

Originally, there was no concept of great unification in history, and the union of city-states among countries gradually became a country.

As a result, there is a deep divide in the kingdom itself regarding the demands of various places.

Expanding to the kingdoms, this kind of estrangement and interest demands will be even deeper.

"It has become inevitable for us to unite."

This is the keynote, don't look at the king who objected just now.

But they all knew that this was bound to happen.

If you want to have the capital on an equal footing with the distant Ming Empire, you need a huge empire as a support.

Even the strongest Portuguese present here is unable to contend against Daming alone.

There are less than [-] warships that they can gather now.

They are still a long way from their greatest glory.

"Next... Your Excellency will explain something to us."

But the Pope waved his hand slowly, and a man in a robe flashed out from nowhere.

This figure does not look tall, wearing a monastic robe.

The hood on the robe completely covered his face, but he was seen saluting slightly to the Pope.

"Thank you for your invitation, but I also hope that you can understand..."

"Our investment targets are all screened."

The kings below heard the word "investment object", and their expressions were different for a while.

Some people were puzzled, while others looked solemn.

Some people are uncertain, and some people have a flash of joy in their eyes!

"Some of the ancestors below have cooperated with us, and some have only heard of our name..."

"Others don't even know we exist."

The man in the hood had a slightly low voice.

With a little hoarseness, he sighed softly: "But it doesn't matter."

"We have always negotiated with the investment object, but the confirmed contract must be implemented."

"As for my name, it doesn't matter..."

The visitor paused, and said softly: "Since it is such a sacred place, then...you can call me 'George'."

The Pope, who had been sitting upright on the throne, heard it dazzlingly, and an inexplicable taste flashed in his eyes.

George is another way of reading "church".

"Are you going to choose enough suitable investment objects from among us?!"

The king present couldn't help but look up when he heard this.

Instead, it was Norman Albert von Nichol, the chief arbitrator of the United Allies of Berne.

The Allies of Berne are an exception among the kingdoms, they do not recognize any supreme magistrate.

All alliances are equal, from their respective military politics to systems.

The only thing that unites them is the offensive and defensive alliance.

Disputes between allied city-states were mediated by the chief arbitrator and supervised by representatives of the city-states.

Under this model, more and more city-states joined the entire federation.

And they, who grew up as mercenaries, knew this "investor" better than all the kings present.

"No, no, no...you misunderstood, Your Excellency Norman Arbitrator."

George, who was wearing a robe, seemed to be smiling a little, even if he didn't see his face, he could feel it.

"We need to accept each other, and at the same time... this time the investor accepted the entrustment of His Majesty."

The kings were taken aback when they heard the words, the Pope's entrustment? !

But George moved his body away slowly, and the cloudy eyes of the Pope sitting on the throne swept over everyone.

"'Investors' have their own channels to communicate with Daming."

"But the premise is that we have the capital to negotiate with Daming."

The Pope looked at them and said in a deep voice: "Compensation is inevitable, and giving up certain benefits is also inevitable."

"But what we have obtained is permission to enter Daming and its affiliated countries for trade."

The kings were taken aback when they heard the words, and then glanced at each other.

They are very clear that this benefit is really not small.

Daming now bluntly says that he is at the forefront in terms of technology.

Even before Zhang Xiaogong's reform, part of Daming's technology was still at the forefront.

Such as silk, porcelain, as well as paper, printing...etc.

Even to a certain extent, its architecture is much more advanced than that of Europa.

You know, the appearance of sewers on Europa is still a very late thing.

At one time the whole of Europa, it was dirty.

Not to mention that the nobles and the common people don't like to take a bath, and those shit and urine are just dumped in the street.

This leads to the fact that when walking on the street, everyone is prone to being splashed with feces from time to time.

But the French are very equal, no matter who they are, they may win the bid.

For example, King Louis XIV of France, he was lucky.

Several "missile attacks" were encountered on the street, but they were all lucky to escape.

By the time of Henry IV, the king had finally had enough.

A ban was ordered throughout Paris on pouring excrement from windows.

It's a pity that the people of Paris still go their own way, anyway.

You patrol during the day, but you can't check at night? !Then I will fall tonight.

Even France, known as the capital of romance, has this virtue, and it is even more serious in other regions.

For example, the world's tallest church in Germany - Ulm Minster Cathedral.

So many people urinating against the walls have eroded its sandstone foundations.

If it is to be watered so hard by the German people, it is estimated that this world-famous cathedral will have to be pissed.

According to a statistics from the French Ministry of the Interior in later generations, 40% of French men frequently urinate anywhere.

Many people don't know that medieval Paris, before becoming a "fashion capital" due to the lack of a sewer system...

It has already won the title of "The Capital of Shit and Urine", and most of the city is soaked in the excrement produced by residents.

The situation is even worse than that of today's Asan.

By the way, Paris metro stations don't have toilets so...

There is a century-old urine smell permeating there all the year round, and it is underground.

Therefore, the smell can be imagined.

Sao up to a hundred years.

Oh~ By the way, there is no air conditioning in the Paris Metro.

Hmm... In order to get rid of this smell, the romantic French people keep spraying perfume on the subway.

Although the perfume they spray every year is enough for them to fix many toilets in the subway.

This is true of the people, and the royal family is no exception.

This kind of practice of leaving hunter marks everywhere, nobles do the most.

Why did France build palaces such as Danfeng Egret, Versailles, Elysee...etc? !

That's why these people don't fix toilets, and put hunter marks on them anytime, anywhere.

I can't bear it if I lose too much Xun, so I have to move to another palace.

When this side is absorbed by nature, the other side will also be smoked unbearably.

move back...

To put it simply, the current Europa is not at the same level as Daming.

(Whispering, even if it is French thieves who are very famous at the moment)

Of course, the Europeans are still not aware of this.

Even if Marco Polo wrote a travelogue, most people think it is a fantasy.

"Specific matters need to be discussed in detail. We can only guarantee to contact Daming with sufficient capital."

George came over at this time and said softly.

"Only if there is a balance of power, can you have the qualifications to negotiate."

Even if George didn't say it, these people wouldn't object to it.

"We need a huge fleet, at least a hundred or more warships."

"We need to have a combined fleet that at least appears to be under one command."

"We will provide some funds and some resources in these aspects, of course! They are not free..."

After talking about it in general, all the kings present understood.

The Holy See will lead this alliance, and they must join this alliance.

Only those who have joined this alliance are eligible to participate in the negotiations with Ming Dynasty.

Otherwise, they would not even have anyone to contact Daming.

This "investor" is very mysterious, at least some kings don't know why they can contact Daming.

But with the guarantor under the Pope's crown, and the presiding arbitrator and the king of France did not say anything.

This shows that the "investor" who claims to be George really has this ability.

"We don't have much time left, so I'll give you an hour to think about it."

That George said indifferently: "We will then sign the relevant agreement and start mobilizing resources and training the fleet together."

"Depart in a month at the latest! We must show our strength before Da Ming decides to attack us!"

All the kings looked at each other, but were silent.

At this time, an old arm was raised.

"I support this proposal!"

The Pope, who was sitting on the throne, slowly raised his hand.

"If you don't join, the Holy See will refuse to crown you! Take back all titles!"

Everyone's face turned ashen when they heard the words!

Chapter 848 Famous for Jade Chi Tigers Outside the Territory, Heinrich Blows the Conch

Great European Holy United Empire, this is the name of the new European Empire today.

And the nominal supreme leader of this empire is the Pope of the Holy See.

All other kingdoms and allies will form a new parliament.

At the same time, the "Europa Strategic Alliance Body" is formed, which is controlled by the Strategic Alliance Council.

The headquarters of the strategic alliance will be located in the Holy See, and the kings of various countries will serve as its directors in name.

The chairman of the board is held by the Pope, and the permanent secretary is sent by the mysterious "investor".
