This Ming Dynasty treats its own country very well.

If you don't make a mistake, you will go to pay tribute every year to give some local products.

Daming can always give back a lot of porcelain, silk, and iron woks.

Gold and silver are often bestowed a lot, which is really the style of a great country.

In contrast, the Europas were furious at the thought of being blackmailed by the Tartars.

At one time the Europas had to pay tribute to the Tartars, and what a tribute then!

Sending gold and silver in the past, there is no such thing as a gift in return.

It's purely because I paid protection fees in the past, and I have to accompany people with smiling faces in case others don't accept them.

No comparison, no harm!

In this comparison, Daming is not too kind to his vassal state.

"Europa's property cannot be compared with that of Daming, and compensation must always be paid..."

After hesitating for a moment, the cardinal reported a number.

"Ten thousand Ming Dynasty gold coins, this is the limit I can give."

Daming's big gold coins are five taels of gold coins.

Ten thousand pieces is 5 taels.

According to the gold-silver ratio of Ming Dynasty, one tael of gold is worth ten taels of silver.

This is 50 taels of silver!It's not a small amount either.

The Ming officials at the negotiating table were overjoyed, but there was no expression on their faces.

If you don't see happiness or anger, don't say it, it seems that it's just a faint disdain.

"Forget it! I, Ming, am not aggressive."

Jade Chihu stepped forward at this time, smoothing things over in a dispirited manner.

He said softly: "Since it is a sincere apology, then it will be good to make the compensation."

"Just coming to my Ming Dynasty, after all, I have to offer some gifts to His Majesty the Emperor."

Said, Yu Chihu said softly.

"In the exchanges between the two countries, we should treat people with sincerity! My Ming Dynasty has no shortage of money, and I don't need much compensation from you."

The cardinal is not a fool, as soon as he heard this, he knew it.

[-] Ming Dynasty gold coins, people think the meaning is the same.

Daming is not short of money, you have to show some sincerity that can impress others!

What is sincerity? !At least it is something valuable in your local area that is useful to Daming.

"Gifts to His Majesty the Great Ming Emperor, naturally there will be no shortage..."

The cardinal gritted his teeth and threw out ten boxes of gems first.

Seeing Yu Chihu's undeniable smile, he finally sighed.

"Europa has sailed to a continent, and we can share the navigation map with Daming."

Only then did Grandpa Zhang nodded in satisfaction, and said, "Is your lord bishop interested in tasting the fragrant tea next time?!"

As long as the main tone is set, the rest will naturally be left to the people below to discuss.

The cardinal is not a fool, Yu Chihu must have other things to talk to him about inviting him.

"Hahaha... I am so honored, I dare not say no!"

The cardinal also knew how to read a sentence, although what he said was half-written.

The voice is also weird, but at least they used this method to show their sincerity.

Yu Chihu smiled slightly and handed over the negotiation field to them.

Nodding his head to invite the bishop, he left here with himself.

The Wanghai Building was taken down, and the small sky courtyard on the second floor was the residence of Young Master Zhang.

When they got upstairs, they took the bishop and sat down on the big balcony.

Yingzi on the side quietly stepped forward, using walnut charcoal, copper pot and yellow clay stove.

The water started to be boiled with a gurgle, and pots of tea were placed out.

At the same time, the refreshments were served on the tea table like flowing water.

"Now the influence of the Holy See in Europa is gradually declining..."

When the cardinal was dumbfounded and watched Yingzi making tea like a cloud and flowing water, Yu Chihu threw out such a sentence abruptly.

Immediately, the cardinal's pupils shrank, but he didn't answer immediately.

"Has the war between you and the 'investors' come to an end?!"

The cardinal still didn't speak, but in fact he knew it in his heart.

The Jade Chihu knew everything about them.

"The investor has already cooperated with us, but Daming doesn't mind having one more partner."

Now, the cardinal couldn't help it.

"Then, what are Daming's conditions?!"

Yu Chihu smiled slightly, raised his hand and said softly to the bishop, "Tea, please!"

The bishop remained expressionless, and slowly picked up the teacup and took a sip.

"Although the Ming Dynasty has been established for 50 and [-] years, China has existed for thousands of years..."

Chapter 856 A burst of flickering and a fierce hammer, all the barbarians from afar are caught

"I, Huaxia, have always been indifferent to things outside my territory..."

Well... from the Yellow River Basin in the early years to millions of square kilometers of land, they were all recharged.

Of course, what Zhang Xiaogong said did not change his face.

"For some franchises, Daming can follow the opinions of the Holy See."

This means that it is very straightforward, Daming has too many products that Europa needs.

As for the simplest rice paper, the Ming Dynasty has almost unified the rice paper manufacturing industry.

Under mass production, small workshops either joined in.

Either in terms of cost, it is defeated by this kind of assembly line operation.

Don't put all your eggs in one basket, and the investors will support it.

On the Holy See side, Jade Chihu will still support it.

It doesn't matter if they fight or make peace.

What Daming wants is a few more sellers who are reliable and have a wide enough channel.

"So... what does Daming want?!"

Jade Chihu smiled slightly, waved his hand and said, "Tea, please!"

The cardinal was silent for a while, then picked up the teacup and took a sip without taste.

Right now his mind was not on tea at all, he was more interested in knowing what Daming's conditions were.

"auntry does not have friends, onlyers"

This famous quote from nineteenth-century British Prime Minister Henry John Temple Palmerston translates to:

"There are no permanent friends, only permanent interests."

This sentence affects the diplomatic norms of many European and American countries in later generations.

Even some people in China once regarded it as a standard.

The cardinal certainly hadn't heard this sentence at this time, but this did not prevent him from actually acting in accordance with this principle.

Any reputation can be betrayed, and all allies can be betrayed at any time.

Only interests are the core of action.

However, in Zhang Xiaogong's view, this short-sighted approach is undoubtedly extremely stupid.

The squeeze of national reputation seems to be taking advantage in the short term.

But in the long run, this is destroying the foundation of a country.

Until the last life when Grandpa Zhang burped and caught a cold, the credit value of European and American countries dropped extremely sharply.

Those obedient countries that they seemed to be easy to fool in the past have gradually ceased to be obedient.

Even the promises they made were not accepted, and the other party was willing to talk only if they paid real money.

Even some of them took out real money, but people were unwilling to talk about it.

This is the result of the country's reputation falling to the bottom and it has been unable to win the trust of other countries.

The root cause of this result is the attitude of destroying the country's reputation for the sake of profit.

When unable to choose, these small countries had no choice but to admit it.

But once there are other choices, it is inevitable that they will be abandoned.

As small as an individual, as large as a country.That's all.

"The power of Europa, withdraw from the New World."

Grandpa Zhang stretched out a finger: "It's best not to let anyone go to the New World within ten years."

When the cardinal heard this, his pupils shrank involuntarily.

Daming...is planning a new continent!

Thinking of the gold and silver brought back from the New World, the cardinal couldn't help but struggle a little.

Jade Chihu put down his teacup and said calmly.

"This is also good for the Holy See."

"The stronger the countries are, the less they will be controlled."

When the cardinal heard this, his expression softened a little.

Looking at the Jade Chihu, his eyes became a little complicated.

This prince is so familiar with Europa's situation that even investors such as investors have been dug out.

The cardinal also knew that he had no choice now.

The investor has already hooked up with the prince, if the Holy See refuses...

If you can't do this stuff, there are naturally others who can't.

"The Holy See needs to register their identity when they come to Daming to preach."

Young Master Zhang then said calmly: "During the stay, you need to abide by the laws of Ming Dynasty."

"The number of people coming should not be too many, and each stop should not exceed 50 people."

The cardinal couldn't help crying and laughing when he heard the words. This was clearly just preaching to them in name.

There are 50 people at a time, and they cannot be permanent.

How is this preaching? !

And since Daming is so big, thousands of people might not be enough to preach.

"The rest of the details can be discussed in the capital of the Ming Dynasty."

The negotiation is almost done, so naturally they have to go to the capital to talk with Emperor Hongzhi.

The main reason is to let them go to Emperor Hongzhi and meet with the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty.
