I, Zhu Houzhao, join the US imperialist chat group

Chapter 190 Louis 6: I’m going to show off! The talents of the Ming Dynasty were Magellan, Copernicu

Chapter 190 Louis XVI: I’m going to show off! The talents of the Ming Dynasty were Magellan, Copernicus, and Galileo!
Talk about a person who had an influence on the country and the world?
As soon as this second topic came up, the group was quiet for a moment.

[Meliezu Louis XVI: Great! I can participate in this topic! This issue seems to have come up before? Group leader, I remember that time it seemed like we were asked to talk about the monarch, right? Are we not going to talk about the monarch this time? 】

As soon as this topic came up, Louis XVI became interested and quickly remembered similar topics.

[Mei Taizu·Washington: It seems to be the second chat. The group leader did let us talk about the monarch. So, group leader, this time we are talking about ordinary people, not just monarchs? 】

Washington actually remembered that a similar topic appeared in the second chat.

[Supreme Group Leader: It’s no longer limited to monarchs, but if you want to talk about monarchs, that’s fine too. Cleveland, you can continue hosting and talk to one or two people. 】

Zhu Houzhao had given up his plan to pretend to be a Western emperor.

To avoid giving away more, he continued to leave the conversation to Cleveland.

[American Yingzong Cleveland: Yes, the group leader. 】

[However, before starting this topic, I heard President Washington and Louis XVI say this, have they talked about similar topics before? 】

Cleveland tested it out of habit.

[Meixuanzong Jackson: Yes, before you came in, we had already talked about the more influential monarchs. Including Charlemagne, Caesar, Cromwell, Napoleon and other more influential monarchs. 】

Jackson added.

[American Yingzong Cleveland: Really? This topic is still very broad. There are probably many influential people in our country or the world. Group leader, is there a limited time and scope? 】

Cleveland tried to be cautious about getting to the bottom of the issue.

[Supreme Group Leader: There is no limit. 】

[Li Xuan, Emperor Xizong of the Tang Dynasty: Group leader, I suggest... Let them talk about other people in the East besides the emperor. I want to see who among us do you admire more, or what else is behind me? No great people? 】

Saying that there is no limit, Zhu Houzhao quickly put forward specific requirements.

Although he was curious about some people in the West, he wanted to learn more about people after the Tang Dynasty from Cleveland and others, or who they knew better about in the East, and to what extent they knew about them.

It would be better if there were people from Ming Dynasty.

[Supreme Group Leader: Please accept His Majesty’s suggestion. After all, I am a guest. 】

Zhu Houzhao directs and has his own rhythm.

[American Yingzong Cleveland: Okay. Group leader, let me readjust the rules of the topic. The topic becomes: Group members talk about an outstanding or representative figure in various fields in the West, not limited to politics, military, business, religion, literature, and philosophy. , people in the scientific field, and then... If you have knowledge of the East, you can add an Eastern celebrity. 】

[Supreme Group Leader: Yes. 】

Or how to say Cleveland is professional, it immediately completes the issue.

Zhu Houzhao naturally didn't mind.

[American Taizu Washington: When Cleveland says this, it becomes clear! Let me start this topic first. I didn’t get many points for the previous topic. This time, I want to score points. 】

The question was clear, and Washington couldn't help but want to answer it.

[American Yingzong Cleveland: Well, let’s start this topic with President Washington. I really want to know who in President Washington’s eyes has the greatest influence on our country or the world. 】

Cleveland gave Washington the microphone in one fell swoop.

[Merezu Louis XVI: Well, I’ll let you go first. I want to see who you will talk to in Washington. 】

[American Taizu Washington: Thank you to His Majesty Louis XVI for your concession, then I will say so directly! 】

[If you look at the entire United States or the entire world, Columbus and Magellan are definitely the two people who have the greatest influence on our United States and the entire world. There is no way around these two people. 】

[What I want to say is the two of them! As for oriental celebrities, I don't know. 】

Washington gave the answer all at once.

Columbus, Magellan?
Wait, Columbus... I think I mentioned it before.

Zhu Houzhao was also curious about the name Magellan, as he felt like he had heard it somewhere before.

Ah!
Ivan’s brother!
Zhu Houzhao has a good memory and immediately thought of this familiar name!
No, what a coincidence?
[Louis XVI: Columbus and Magellan, they are really recognized celebrities to you in the United States and to the entire world. These two people are in line with the perceptions of you Americans in Washington. 】

[Messerson Roosevelt: Indeed, our American history and American history cannot avoid Columbus and Magellan! President Washington definitely deserved the mention of these two men. 】

Roosevelt and Louis XVI directly agreed.

[Tang Xizong Li Xuan: Columbus, Magellan? who? 】

Zhu Houzhao also asked again at the right time.

[American Yingzong Cleveland: Although we are all familiar with the two people proposed by President Washington. But obviously His Majesty Li is not familiar with them. Let President Washington introduce the other presidents to the guests first. If these two epic figures can be known to His Majesty the East, it will also increase their reputation. 】

Obviously, the trumpet is necessary. Although they know the two people they mentioned, the trumpet does not know and cannot omit this process.

[American Taizu Washington: This is as it should be. Your Majesty Li, I will explain to you why these two people have contributed to our United States and have great influence on the world. 】

[The first is Christopher Columbus. He was a native of the Republic of Genoa in Europe and was born in northern Italy. Born in October 1451 and died on May 10, 1506. His main achievement was the discovery of our American continent during the Age of Discovery. 】

Um...wait?

What happened in 1506?
Zhu Houzhao was startled. He didn't expect that he would be facing his time as soon as he came up.

Then, after learning about Columbus's death, Zhu Houzhao was even more surprised.

He never expected that he would try to get the Portuguese to look for Columbus, but before anyone even set out, he...he died!
This news was quite sudden to Zhu Houzhao.

[Li Xuan, Emperor Xizong of the Tang Dynasty: The American continent was discovered? Great voyages and eras? What are these? 】

Suddenly, Zhu Houzhao also took this opportunity to improve his understanding.

[American Taizu Washington: The American continent... is where our United States is now. By the way, although everyone has explained it to you before, I also want to explain it to you here. When human ship technology was not so developed, the ocean was the end of the world for you Easterners and us Westerners. 】

[But...it turns out he is not. It is just due to the underdevelopment of navigation technology. 】

[Your Majesty Li, the east where you are, the west of us, and the United States at that time... were three pieces of land floating on the ocean. They didn't know each other, and no one had ever walked on it...]

[By the way, combined with this world map...]

Washington quickly explained to Zhu Houzhao in detail the knowledge about world geography and the Age of Discovery.

This time, Zhu Houzhao was given a complete view of the whole world.

[Li Xuan, Emperor Xizong of the Tang Dynasty: That’s it! I understand somewhat. Then you can continue talking about Columbus...]

Zhu Houzhao pretended for a moment before continuing to guide Washington.

[American Taizu Washington: Columbus, his main achievement was to discover our American continent. From then on, Europeans learned about this new continent, and also gave the potatoes and sweet potatoes of the American continent a chance to be brought by the Spaniards. Spread all over the world. Anyway... after he discovered America, on November 1620, 11, after sixty-six days of drifting at sea, the "Mayflower" sailing ship took the British people at that time, who are now our American citizens, with them. Ancestors... set foot on America! 】

[From then on, our American story began. 】

[Anyway, starting from Columbus, Europe and America continued to have contact, and opened up the Age of Discovery in the following centuries...]

It turns out that Columbus is the true ancestor of the United States!

At this time, Zhu Houzhao knew the significance of Columbus to the United States.

It's a pity that even here, this guy is already dead.

Pity.

But does it take sixty-six days to get from Europe to the United States?

Zhu Houzhao was not without gain, he also learned about the sailing time.

[Tang Xizong Li Xuan: What about Magellan? 】Magellan, he seems to be alive. It would be great if... he is really Ivan's brother.

[American ancestor Washington: Ferdinand Magellan, he was also another great navigator after Columbus. He was born in 1480 and died in April 1521. He was a Portuguese explorer and navigator who mainly worked for the Spanish government. His main achievement was to lead a fleet to sail around the world, proving that the earth beneath our feet is a sphere. At the same time, he was also the first human navigator to cross the Pacific Ocean! 】

【…】

This, this, this!
Have I found a talent? !
He really seems to be Ivan’s brother! No! ?
This Magellan is so terrifying and such a genius! ?
Under Washington's narration, Zhu Houzhao felt extremely excited and surprised.

He never expected that among the few Portuguese people he randomly captured, there would be Magellan's relatives among them!
This is really, he is so lucky!

And this Magellan is not dead, he is still in his prime!
It was a God-given opportunity that just happened to work for him!
[American Taizu Washington: The only pity is that when Magellan was 41 years old, when he was sailing in Asia... he had an accident and was beaten to death by some natives, and died in a foreign country. 】

How could I let such a talent die!
He is the second Zheng He in the Ming Dynasty!
[Tang Xizong Li Xuan: That's really a pity, so...you guys who explore and sail and discover new worlds can also be regarded as heroes and get titles and so on? 】

[American Taizu Washington: This is natural! Moreover... Jefferson has told everyone before that the aristocracy and the church have already controlled the state power here, and it is difficult to become a nobility. Magellan received a knighthood as a result, which was an encouragement to the sailing crew... It demonstrated the attitude of Queen Isabella of Spain, which also led to the advent of the subsequent Age of Discovery, and the Spanish Empire became the first empire on which the sun never set. They brought countless amounts of silver and gold! 】

call!
Zhu Houzhao took a deep breath and got the follow-up development from here.

The policies for the future of the Ming Dynasty are obviously clear. There is no way he can copy homework. He doesn't even have the courage to be a queen!

Spain’s national destiny is determined by Ming Dynasty!
[American Yingzong Cleveland: So... Columbus and Magellan, in this sense, did influence the entire world. President Washington, do you have anything else to add? 】

After Washington finished speaking and gave Zhu Houzhao a brief introduction to the trumpet, Cleveland couldn't wait to proceed to the next step.

[American Taizu Washington: I’m done. 】

Washington naturally has nothing to say.

[American Yingzong Cleveland: Well, President Washington just mentioned Columbus and Magellan as two great figures in the field of navigation. Next, let’s not talk about the field of navigation. You can replace them with others. 】

[So, who has figured out what to do next? 】

Cleveland leads the conversation.

[Meliezu Louis XVI: Let me do it! Washington, you mentioned a figure from the Age of Discovery, and I will also mention one, Copernicus! Then... another person who is very influential and whom I admire should be Galileo! 】

Louis XVI also quickly named two famous figures.

[Li Xuan, Emperor Xizong of Tang Dynasty: Huh? Is it brother again? We also have a general named Ge Shuhan here! 】

Zhu Houzhao quickly discovered a bright spot.

[Louis XVI: Well, Your Majesty, Copernicus’s full name is Nicholas Copernicus, and he was not a general. He is an astronomer, mathematician and priest from our side. His greatest contribution is to change our understanding of the world and expand our horizons. 】

Louis XVI quickly corrected and introduced Copernicus.

[Li Xuan, Emperor Xizong of Tang Dynasty: Huh? What did he do? 】

Zhu Houzhao was curious.

[Meliezu Louis XVI: It seems that I also want to give you a shock of our West. Your Majesty Li, do you think the sun in the sky revolves around our earth, or does the earth under our feet revolve around the sun? 】

It was a rare occasion when a group of people showed off their saints, and some people heard themselves bragging. Louis XVI was ready to show off in front of Zhu Houzhao.

[Meliezu Louis XVI: Don’t talk to others! Be careful, I will give you a bad review soon! 】

Moreover, for fear that others would disturb his show-off process, he also threatened others.

[American Taizu Washington: Well... don't worry, His Majesty Louis XVI, no one will bother you. 】

Washington couldn't help but smile bitterly.

[American Yingzong Cleveland: His Majesty Louis XVI, the stage time now belongs to you and His Majesty Li. You can talk freely, we will not disturb you. 】

[Meliezu Louis XVI: Haha, that’s good! Your Majesty Li, please answer. If you want to know what Copernicus did, answer this question and I will tell you. 】

childish!

Zhu Houzhao was quite speechless, but he was also interested.

[Li Xuan, Emperor Xizong of the Tang Dynasty: This question is very simple. The sun rises in the east and sets in the west. Of course, the sun revolves around the earth beneath our feet. 】

Childish as it is, Zhu Houzhao also cooperated in answering questions. Anyway, it was Li Xuan who was childish, and it had nothing to do with him and Zhu Houzhao.

[Meliezu Louis XVI: Haha! Congratulations...you got the answer wrong! Big mistake! The earth beneath our feet, we call it the earth! Our earth revolves around the sun! 】

Louis XVI suddenly became happy and happily told Zhu Houzhao the answer.

[Li Xuan, Emperor Xizong of Tang Dynasty: What? impossible! Our place has always had a round sky and a square earth! The sun obviously revolves around us... No, in mythology, the sun does not revolve around our earth, but... the Golden Crow rises every day according to time! 】

Zhu Houzhao was really surprised. Louis XVI still wanted to shock himself, how could that be possible!

[Meliezu Louis XVI: Hehe, I knew you would have such a reaction, Your Majesty Li! You, Dongfang, are not that far ahead of us! Let me tell you, this is wrong, Copernicus said so! And... let me add some knowledge here. The earth under our feet is not square, but a sphere. The sun is also a sphere, a bigger sphere. Our earth... revolves around the sun! 】

Louis XVI was very satisfied with the effect of his pretense, and explained and added new knowledge points to Zhu Houzhao with a smile.

[Li Xuan, Xizong of the Tang Dynasty: Louis XVI, don’t try to fool me, this... how is this possible! I can accept that the sun is a ball, but you said that the earth under our feet is a ball. How can we stand firm? 】

Zhu Houzhao was not surprised. The Yuan Dynasty discovered that the earth was a ball, but with such a small time, he naturally did not know that he had to cooperate with Louis XVI.

[American Taizu Washington: Although His Majesty Louis XVI relied on the prophet to bully His Majesty Li, Your Majesty Li, we can all testify that what His Majesty Louis XVI said was not false. The earth under our feet is round. When I talked about Magellan just now, I also said that his voyage around the world is proof...]

[American Xuanzong Jackson: Your Majesty Li, we will not all lie to you. If His Majesty Louis XVI lies, we will all expose him. 】

Presidents have certified the sixteenth anniversary.

[Li Xuan, Xizong of the Tang Dynasty: Is this...really? How to prove it? 】

The trumpet is naturally doubtful.

[Meliezu Louis XVI: This... proves it, unless we give you an astronomical telescope. But we in France have only just established observatories, not many... This, this makes it a little difficult for me to prove. 】

Louis XVI was in trouble.

[American Yingzong Cleveland: It's simple... If Your Majesty Li doesn't believe it, we will find a way to give you an astronomical telescope when you leave. Then... you will know. Astronomical telescopes are not a problem for us in the United States. 】

Cleveland addressed the issue directly to Louis XVI and then urged him.

[Your Majesty Louis XVI, please stop being pretentious and tell His Majesty Li directly about Copernicus and Galileo. 】

[Meliezu Louis XVI: OK! Your Majesty Li, if you have any questions, please keep it to yourself. Let me tell you about Copernicus! 】

[Copernicus, a Polish man from 1473 to 1543, his famous deed is the "heliocentric theory"...]

As soon as Louis XVI introduced him, Zhu Houzhao was surprised and pleasantly surprised again. What... another talent from the same period as him?

By inadvertently setting up such a topic, he picked up two talents for nothing?

Zhu Houzhao quickly suppressed the questions in his mind and directly recorded Copernicus's affairs on the spot...

[Tang Xizong Li Xuan: What... He was burned to death just because he said that the earth revolves around the sun! ? 】

Then, he also knew that Copernicus had a bad ending, but this ending was better for him.

He also seems to have talented people from the Imperial Palace of the Ming Dynasty.

[Meliezu Louis XVI: There is no way, just like you didn’t accept it just now, Your Majesty Li... Many people couldn’t accept it at that time, so he was naturally burned to death as a heretic. Although he died... the heliocentric theory he left behind influenced many of us who followed, until it expanded our view of the universe. 】

[Louis XVI: Then Galileo Galilei is a scientist who I personally think is also very influential. Some of the engineering I learned about repairing locks was influenced by him. He was a figure from 1564 to 1642... He studied speed and acceleration, gravity and free fall, relativity, inertia, invented the thermometer and the military compass... and then I also used an astronomical telescope to observe Venus, discover Jupiter, etc...]

Zhu Houzhao also discovered that Galileo could barely be considered a figure of his time...

So, is this topic preparing for the discovery of talents in the current Ming Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty in the future?
 It’s been almost a month! I’m asking for a monthly pass at the end of the month! If the monthly ticket exceeds 1,000! Next month, we will continue to earn 10,000 per day!
