Bury the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 264 Was completely fooled and lame

Chapter 264 Was completely fooled and lame

The majestic Prince of Orange, who is about to become the first king of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, the eldest son of the last hereditary ruling William V and Princess Frederick Sophie Wilhelmina of Prussia, William Frederick, unexpectedly Being said to be like a country bumpkin?
William I summed it up, I have seen big scenes too, I have seen the scene where your Thames River was blocked by feces, I have also seen the scene where you dispatched tens of thousands of people to dig out the excrement, what else in this world Can it scare me?
What the hell?
Quanzhou Port?
Cough, here is an accident, accident, mainly because I have never seen such a tall but clean city, I am not used to it for a while, it is definitely not the reason that I, William I, have too little experience!

But after arriving at Tianjin Port, King William I, who had been struggling all the way, couldn't hold back: "Isn't this stepping horse the capital of the Ming Dynasty? This is a port similar to Quanzhou? Then can you tell me that the Ming Kingdom has a total of How many ports like Quanzhou! Also, how far are we from the capital of the Ming Dynasty?"

George III looked at William I with pity, sighed and said, "William, I don't know exactly how many ports like Quanzhou are in the Ming Dynasty, but the ones I know are Jiugang, Lanfang, and Guangzhou. , Quanzhou, Fuzhou, Songjiang, Ningbo, Jimo, Denglai, Tianjin, Lushun, Dandong, North Korea, Kyushu, Ryukyu, and a whole lot more I don’t know about.”

Seeing that George III's ten fingers were gradually not enough, William I was finally completely desperate. He kicked the side of the boat violently and said angrily: "All the horses belong to Ming! Another day, you England and our Netherlands Give him the Ming Kingdom as well! Let me tell you, George, you will regret it sooner or later, you will definitely!"

George III patted William I on the shoulder and comforted him: "Now you know why I advised you not to have a conflict with Ming Kingdom?"

"You have to know that even if the whole of Europa is united, it will have no impact on the Ming country. They can produce their own food, machinery, silk, porcelain, and tea. They can produce almost everything you can think of. stuff, and don't have to worry about sales because they have a large number of civilians who make up a third of the world's population."

"Give up your unrealistic ideas, William, there will be many things that will surprise you later."

William I felt that nothing in the world could surprise him anymore. Even after seeing the steam locomotive and getting on the steam locomotive, William I could force himself to remain calm.

But when William I took the steam locomotive with George III, waited for the capital with a bang, and lived in the post house arranged by Honglu Temple, William III couldn't help but break the defense.

"Well, George, I think I get it right."

William III said with a face full of despair: "I will not cause trouble for myself, nor will I cause trouble for you. I think I already know what to do."

George III patted William I on the shoulder sympathetically, and said, "You will get used to it gradually, William. Look here, this is the toilet of Ming Dynasty."

William I said in bewilderment and despair: "Okay, George, I know everything is fine in Ming Kingdom, but you don't have to take me to visit the toilets in Ming Kingdom, do you?"

George III shook his head and said, "Pay attention to the toilet in the toilet of Ming Dynasty."

William I asked with a confused face: "Is there any problem with this? Don't you also have flush toilets in England?"

George III pointed to a mark on the bottom of the toilet, and said: "Look here—the toilets produced in the Ming Dynasty will be specially printed with Chinese characters, and the names of their manufacturers will be printed, and the toilets exported from England to the Ming Dynasty must be Print the "made in england" logo to make a distinction."

"The flush toilets produced in England can be sold to many countries in Europe, including France, but in the Ming Dynasty, the real nobles or rich people will only choose the flush toilets produced in the Ming Dynasty."

"As for the toilets produced in England or other countries in Europe, even if the quality is similar, the price can only be set lower, otherwise no one will buy them."

"Let me tell you, there are three types of flush toilets in the Ming market. One is produced by local manufacturers in Ming Dynasty, and the price is the most expensive. The second type is produced in England, and the price is higher than that produced by local manufacturers in Ming Dynasty. A little lower, but higher than the third type, that is, toilets produced in other countries in Europe, including France of course."

William I really wanted to ask George III, what does that proud expression on your face mean?
Your goods in England are actually going to be reduced to the point where they are inferior to those in France?

George III went on to say: "I tell you this just to tell you that the country of Ming Dynasty is really terrible. Here, don't put on the airs of the royal family, let alone just because the common people here dare to look directly at you. Get mad and don't feel like they're disrespecting you."

"Actually, apart from their special respect for the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, they treat everyone like this, because any of their civilians may have ancestors from nobles or even the royal family."

Speaking of this, George III couldn't help showing a somewhat self-deprecating smile on his face: "Do you know that when I came to Ming Dynasty last time, I asked Macartney to take me around-I met a kind of A farmer in the land, and this farmer told me that his ancestor was the emperor 5000 years ago, and he even took out a paper family tree as proof.”

William I continued to be confused.

In Europa, the nobles who have their own family crest are already very remarkable. Those who can summarize the deeds of their own family in just one or two hundred years are regarded as high-ranking nobles. If anyone has a parchment record, then It must be a nobleman among the nobles. It is trivial to look at people with their nostrils, and it is embarrassing to go out without wind.

But who would have thought that in the Ming Dynasty, any farmer could produce a family tree, and by the way, trace back thousands of years of history?

Seeing the disbelief on William I's face, George III could only shrug his shoulders and said, "You know, William, I have no need to lie to you, it's just the way it is. Later, I also asked Ming Guo Do you know how the emperor of Ming Dynasty answered this question?"

William I shook his head stupidly, and asked with a confused face, "How did you answer?"

"The emperor of the Ming Kingdom said that there are such nobles everywhere in the Ming Kingdom." George III said: "If you throw a brick on the street and kill ten people, nine of them are nobles like the farmer, and they have another identity." Might be more expensive."

"So, if you want to go out by yourself, you must remember that you can't conflict with the civilians of the Ming Dynasty, even if you don't consider their noble status, even if you feel offended, please come back with me Explain the situation clearly, and don't pretend to be smart enough to propose a duel."

William I continued to be confused: "Why? Why can't you even propose a duel?"

George III said: "Are you confident that you can defeat them? Even if you can defeat the civilians of the Ming Kingdom, wouldn't you be honored? Also, the government of the Ming Kingdom will favor their civilians indefinitely, and they will not Care about whether you are the king or noble of some country."

"The Ming Dynasty has a cruel punishment. They call it Jingguan. It is to pile up the enemy's corpses into a mountain and seal them with soil. The top layer is the head of the king or general of their hostile country."

"There is a building of this kind in Jinan Prefecture in the Ming Dynasty, not far from the Jimo Port we passed by; there is also a building in Jiaozhi Province, not far from Da Nang we passed through."

"So, if you don't want your own head chopped off by their army, then you'd better not bring up such a thing as a duel, lest you get yourself into trouble."

King William I immediately said in a muffled voice, "I see."

As long as he thinks of piling up corpses into a mountain, and then putting the head of the king or general of the enemy country on the top of the mountain of corpses, William I will have a chilling feeling, and the back of his neck will always feel cold.

William I was completely limped by George III.

George III went on to say: "Okay, I'm going to meet the emperor of the Ming Kingdom. As for you, how about following Macartney for a walk in the capital of the Ming Kingdom?"

William I's Adam's apple moved, and he said, "Go and do your business, I'll stay here for the time being, it's better to wait for you to come back."

George III said with a smile: "Don't worry, William, as long as you don't violate the laws of the Ming Dynasty, you can go for a walk in the streets with confidence - Marcielny knows the laws of the Ming Dynasty very well, With him reminding you, it’s okay.”

King William I nodded in response.

……

Zhu Jinsong and George III arrived in the capital. After receiving George III’s request for a meeting, Zhu Jinsong immediately agreed——Da Ming’s army beat up the English army. There is a way to say that it is impossible to procrastinate.

But after seeing George III, Zhu Jinsong took the lead in launching an attack: "Old Joe, what do you think is going on with you in East India? I was going on a trip outside, but I was called back in a hurry .”

Perhaps because he has been studying the books of Ming Dynasty recently, words such as preemptive, preemptive, and counterattack flashed through George III's mind.

But George III intends to use a word he has just learned recently to deal with Zhu Jinsong.

Salaries are drawn from the bottom of the pot.

George III said with a smile: "I'm really sorry, this is all a misunderstanding made by those damn diapers. You see, after the misunderstanding is resolved, we are still good friends."

"By the way, I'm not just here to attend the second meeting of Xiaopoguo this time, but there is another very important thing."

Zhu Jinsong snorted and said, "What's the matter?"

George III smiled and said, "Is there any interest in the East India?"

When asked by King George III, Zhu Jinsong was a little confused: "What do you mean? What does it mean to be interested? You don't think I plan to attack the East Indies, do you?"

George III shook his head and said: "Of course not, I said it just now, it was a misunderstanding made by the diapers-I mean, I want to sell the East India, as long as the price is the same as that in Alaska. That's about right."

Zhu Jinsong was even more confused: "No, old Qiao, why do you still want to sell the East India?"

George III said: "Because that place is far away from our mainland England, and those diapers are really not easy to manage, it is really tasteless, if you Ming Dynasty is willing to take over, it will be considered a favor to our England—— —As far as our relationship is concerned, are you embarrassed not to help?"

Zhu Jinsong said: "How is it possible? You have already said it. As far as our relationship is concerned, we must help with this little help."

"Let's do it this way, the price is still 880 taels of silver, which is exactly the same as Alaska. In addition, I will give you one hundred artillery pieces and five thousand percussion guns in my personal capacity, how about it?"
