After listening to the envoy's words, Jiang Zhili's heart became alive. It seems that he had thought too much before. This group of people were different from those foreign countries in the red and barbarian countries and would not do anything like taking advantage of the situation.

The messenger said again: "Mr. Lizhi, Governor Chen Jian, also said that after the disaster, it is time to show the great grace. Now the rice market will be expensive. If it is forced to afford it, the merchants will simply not sell it. Only by transporting these rice over can they curb it. Otherwise, if you force the rice price to be lowered, there will only be no rice to buy on the market."

Jiang Zhili snorted: "As your governor said, I must agree to enter Hong Kong?"

The envoy also laughed and said, "The safety of more than 100,000 people in Quanzhou counties is of course only in Mr. Lizhi's words. Moreover, our country is thousands of miles away, and this people are not our people. Whether to enter or not is naturally the decision of herders. I heard from Mr. Chen that there is a saying that everyone has compassion. Even if they are thousands of miles apart, who has no parents, wife and children? Who can see that their wives and children are separated and hungry are indifferent in the world?"

"What a compassionate person has it. Since you don't have the knowledge of a saint, you have such thoughts?"

"Mr. Lizhi was joking. Could it be that without the saint's learning, would he kill his parents to avoid wasting food? People are not beasts, could they become beasts here before the saint?"

"presumptuous!"

The messenger was not afraid and smiled and said, "Before I came, Mr. Chen told me that Mr. Lizhi must not refuse. First, you have a good official reputation and have already inquired. If you are a corrupt official, we will have compassion and don't need such trouble. What can't be done if gold and silver are smashed? Besides, even if you don't agree, will it be that there will be no merchants going to sea to load? At that time, the wealthy businessmen benefited, but they will suffer the people. It's just that we have good intentions and can't bear to do this. If we have compassion for people and are also presumptuous, then I can go back and ask the people who recorded history to write in the history of our country: year, month, day, the earthquake in Quanzhou in Ming Dynasty, the envoy of our country could not bear to starve and transport rice, and Jiang Zhili, the governor of Ranzhou..."

When Jiang Zhili heard this, her previous anger disappeared a little. She was not only angry but also over-angry and actually laughed.

Look at this messenger who is neither humble nor arrogant, and smiled and said, "Forget it, you do not understand the words of the saints, and I will not care about you. In this case, where is your governor's fleet? I will personally set up a boat to visit."

"It is only a hundred miles away from the sea. In our country's laws, within a hundred miles of the island offshore are all territorial waters and cannot be passed without permission."

Jiang Zhili originally thought about educating and educating this person, what is the king's land in the world, but then he thought that these verbal disputes were boring, so he stopped talking and prepared to go out to sea to meet Chen Jian.

After all, he is still a good official. Chen Jian's actions are considered to be his preferences. Like Gao, he always applies to his preferences, but the methods he uses are very different.

Chen Jian was indeed on the sea at this time, but as Jiang Zhili thought, he did not come after hearing the earthquake here, but started preparing as early as the end of June when he sent an envoy.

The Quanzhou earthquake was a major event and was also the starting point for a series of Quanzhou people to go to Taiwan to reclaim their cultivation. Chen Jian must manage his relationship with Quanzhou officials well.

Yuegang is a commercial port, while Quanzhou gradually declined and there was not much arable land, and it was closer to Penghu and Taiwan. In the future, this will be the grassroots level for reclaiming Taiwan, so I have to worry about it.

In early June, he sent people to stay in Ayutahya to continue arguing with Thailand, so he began to purchase rice and lime at Ayutahya's store, as well as some medicinal materials to prevent plague and miasma.

The maritime merchants had already told Chen Jian about the situation of the navy's flood troops. Chen Jian did not miss the opportunity. When he sent an envoy to Zhangzhou and Fuzhou to cause trouble, he took the fleet and took the opportunity of the navy leaving to Taiwan for a walk.

The tribute trade cannot be decided by a governor and must be reported. Chen Jian estimated that the time for reporting will be until the end of August. Even if everything goes well, it will have to wait until next year.

There are a lot of things that can be done this year, but it also needs a docking place. Without authorization, it is impossible for him to dock at the port of the Ming Dynasty. After all, this is a warship, not a simple merchant ship. What should be used for bribery money, and what should not be used is a waste. You must occupy Taiwan and do something, of course you have to make plans early.

Chen Jian is still confident about the tribute trade, at least he wants to have confidence. After all, this is the ethnic group he belongs to, so he will not have the Magarni incident of the Ming Dynasty, which will lead to the revenge forever. He also brought flintlock rifles, field artillery, looms, math books, matches and hot air balloons, so he should not be ignored.

I just don’t know if the big guys who are busy fighting for the country and the demon book case are interested. The firearm master Zhao Shizhen is about to die of worry, Sun Yuanhua is still learning the elementary level in Shanghai, and Li Zhizao is not in the capital but digging rivers in Jining. In short, don’t make a joke that you can watch or not.

Chen Jian also took great pains to make this tribute trade trip. On the one hand, the pride of the nation made him emotionally believe that he would not have made the Ming Dynasty version of Magarni, and on the other hand, the rationality of interest analysis made him believe that this time it might be difficult.

In order to make complete preparations, this time, the sea trip from Ayutahya also hired some local Chinese and maritime merchants who could write traditional Chinese characters. He interpreted every day, and these people translated the translated things, as well as various books brought from China.

From the "Geometric Algebra" he compiled to the "Induction and Logical Deduction" he first wrote to his husband; from the engineering of water conservancy to the accounting manual for money and grain calculations; from the breeding of improved breeding to the summary of several classic battles of the Unification War decades ago...

During the day, I kept translating the carefully selected things with my mouth, and at night I tried to practice writing traditional Chinese characters. All kinds of actions have caused dissatisfaction among many people on the boat, and some people were extremely dissatisfied.

When Feng Guo's writing was written like that, Chen Jian was already under the tremendous pressure from some people in the fleet. Even though he knew that writing like that would be easily picked out and rejected, this was already the limit.

He had to consider the feelings of these people, because one person could not do anything and needed the help of these people. The republic of the Chinese people's thoughts had serious xenophobia, which was divided not by race but by ethnic groups of a community. These people also had dignity and face, and it was impossible for them to learn from Ryukyu to write a letter of surrender to the country. In that case, the news would be a bullet from a radical when it spreads back to the country.

There are certainly profit-oriented merchants in the fleet, but there are also young officers and young people who can sacrifice for glory. Some things are really difficult to balance.

If this trade request is rejected, no matter who becomes the governor of Asia, he will make some actions that Chen Jian does not want to see, which is the benefit.

Now the initiative is still in your own hands, but once you can't open the situation, the initiative will fall into the hands of others. At that time, you may do something that the colonists should do at this time. That will be a big problem. Colonization also requires scientific management. The tools have been learned, and it will only be easier, softer, more delicate and more aggressive when used.

By bringing the charlatan into scientific disguise, Chen Jian took out everything he could rely on. From then on, the history he knew no longer made sense.

At this time, Chen Jian was also restless, and he was not satisfied until he received the news that Jiang Zhili came in person.

Everything is as usual, let the soldiers line up on the deck to welcome and greet the guns.

Jiang Zhili also knew that he represented the dignity of the Supreme Kingdom of the Celestial Empire. He held his head up and his chest as if he could not hear the sound of a gun, but he was secretly surprised that the firearm was sharp and the boat was wide.

Chen Jian, the leader of the people, greeted him and said, "I don't know what to call him." After all, there has never been a country with equal communication between the state and the state.

Not to argue about this issue yet, Chen Jian said that he called it like this according to the age of the younger generation, and called each other a gentleman, but Jiang Zhili did not refuse.

After the ceremony, he entered the cabin and had already prepared a banquet. He sat down according to domestic etiquette. Chen Jian introduced everyone at the banquet one by one.

I have good introductions to official identities, and the official names are all unkind things copied from the original, and the people on the mission are nothing more than Yuanwailang.

Because of Lan Qi and Lin Xi's performance in the smallpox epidemic in the capital, their status was not low among the crowd, and they were ranked third and fourth, which made Jiang Zhili quite puzzled.

At first I thought it was a singer, but I didn't look like the demeanor, and the man sitting next to these two women was at ease and didn't look like he couldn't get over it.

But Jiang Zhili couldn't stand it anymore and smiled and said, "The universe has its roots and human relations are regular. Your country lives in the west. Isn't it that the one who is Sichen in your country is actually a hen?"

Chen Jian secretly wiped his sweat and hurriedly turned around and said to the people: "He asked you why you were sitting on the lower heads of the two women?"

The person sitting behind said a few words, Chen Jian explained again, and then Jiang Zhili nodded and said, "It turns out to be a charity from the extreme west, which is understandable."

Lan Qi obviously didn't know who Yi Mei was, and didn't understand the hen very much. However, after so long, she understood what Jiang Zhili meant. She glanced at Chen Jian who was clearly translating randomly and said seriously: "Mr. Jiang is only a mountain in Quanzhou, and there are 100,000 people. However, the sister next to me tried medicine to make millions of people in China no longer afraid of smallpox epidemics. Although I was not as good as possible, when the capital was in a major epidemic, she also organized her cliques to go deep into the epidemic area.

The epidemic will no longer spread. In terms of achievements, I am afraid you are not qualified to say what kind of hen we are. When will you do something that benefits millions of people, it is not too late to say this. In our country, when the country was established hundreds of years ago, it was rumored that women could stand half of the sky, go to war with the army to treat wounded soldiers, teach children to read and write, and give birth to children to increase the population, even many people engrave the famous sages of the Sage. What Mr. Jiang said was boring, so don’t mention it again.”

Chen Jian coughed lightly, thinking that this was also a troublesome thing. I am afraid that even if it is possible to trade, women will definitely not be able to get ashore. He was originally going to take Lanqi to see the land system here, but now it seems that there is no chance.

Jiang Zhili had never seen such a woman in public, and her face changed slightly, but fortunately, Chen Jian changed the subject.

After changing the topic, Chen Jian did not directly talk about trade or rice. He knew that everyone at this time was so simple that he talked about the world, so he asked, "Does Mr. Jiang know that the world is in this time?"

"Bozhou bones are still there, and the blood in Busan has not dried. It is the Holy Emperor who is in power and peace is achieved in all directions."

"The state of Chixian has always been peaceful in all directions. However, if we take the theory of the nine states in the world, we may not even be able to say that the Spring and Autumn Period was broken when rituals collapsed and music was broken. It was like the Warring States Period in a great battle. It was rude, without joy and without Zhou emperors. Only the Western Qin soldiers and Hu clothing and horse riding and shooting, Li Kui reformed and Shang Yang prefected Qin..."
