Chapter 762 Finding and Cultivating Allies
Chapter 762 Finding and Cultivating Allies
The matter of Descartes marrying Fanxiuer has been discussed for a while in the capital, and everyone has mixed opinions about it. Among them, there is no lack of remarks from the Supreme Ming Dynasty, who think that Descartes is just a barbarian, how can he be qualified to marry my wife of the Ming Dynasty? people?
I heard that the imperial court paid these Xiyi very high remuneration, especially this Dika received the most. I heard that the monthly salary is as much as 300 taels, which is equivalent to the level of a third-rank official in the imperial court. Could it be this Fan Xiu Do you covet this Xiyi's money?
What happened to this court recently?
Not to mention building luxury houses for these Xiyi who came from afar, but also giving them such a high salary every month, don’t you know the saying passed down by the ancestors?
People who are not of our race must have different minds, isn't the Jiannu Tartars an example?No matter how well the imperial court treats them, they are still not familiar with feeding them. Is this the scar that has healed and forgotten the pain?
Those bigwigs in the court are all in a daze?
Of course, ordinary people don't care about this, and they don't understand the debate between Hua and Barbarians. Most of the makers of these gossips are idle people from superior families who don't worry about food and drink. They gather together in small groups to drink tea all day long. Bragging and pointing out the country, it sounds like those high-spirited talks are all reasonable, but in fact they don't know the real reason of the matter at all.
This may be the originator of later generations of fans.
They didn't know that the "Analytic Geometry" compiled by Descartes, which is a must-learn course in middle schools for later generations, and the reward given by Daming is actually not as good as the knowledge.
Analytic geometry is an epoch-making product. In this era when algebra was still in its infancy, Descartes successfully connected algebra and geometry, which were completely separated, and created the theory of coordinate system, which laid the foundation for the creation of calculus later. established a solid foundation.
This is an epoch-making turning point in the history of mathematics. All achievements in mathematics in later generations are extensions based on the foundation laid by Descartes.
Since the birth of silver coins, all the officials who belonged to the imperial court have become the recipients and users of the first batch of silver coins. This kind of exquisite coins has also made the introduced talents love it.
Descartes doesn't care, he has no relatives in Europe, and the only few friends are temporarily unable to contact due to the distance, while the rest of the people who have many relatives in Europe are a little impatient. Xiang Fang Yizhi proposed that he hoped that Daming could expand its reputation and influence in Europe as soon as possible, so that Daming silver coins could be fully circulated in Europe as soon as possible.
To be rich and not to return to one's homeland is to travel at night like clothes.
Han Gaozu's words are actually common all over the world.
No matter what rhetoric or purpose these people who came to Daming from afar have, they have the same purpose: to make money.
They were not valued in Europe, or because they felt that their efforts were not proportional to their gains, or because they wanted to make a name for themselves abroad to show to those family members who looked down on them, so they were in the bank of the Daming Mission. Under the offensive, he gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, and then came to a foreign country.
It's been less than a year and they've all been successful.
The treatment given to them by the Ming Dynasty is enough to allow many people to live like nobles in Europe. Although it is impossible for them to go back due to various reasons, if they can bring some silver coins back to their relatives through merchant ships, this will not only make them feel better with others. Sharing the joy of success can prove to others that you are indeed a talent, but you have not been discovered.
However, although Daming's silver coins are valuable, it is unknown whether they can be circulated in Europe. I have a lot of wealth now, but I don't even have a chance to show it off. This is really annoying me.
These remarks were quickly fed back to the palace, and Zhu Youjian quickly fell into thinking after hearing about it.
He didn't think about it to satisfy those talents who were eager to show off their wealth, but the things proposed by these people were also one of the plans he had considered in the early stage.
The plundering of resources by currency is the most time-saving and labor-saving, and a certain country in later generations used this method to plunder the world.
After some deliberation, Zhu Youjian decided to try: to issue a certain amount of interest-free loan to Portugal, with a term of ten years, and the currency price is the same as the current currency used for trade between the two parties.
The unfriendly relationship between Portugal and Spain is the most important reason for Zhu Youjian to make this decision. Secondly, Portugal can be used as a springboard to try to let the Daming silver coins begin to circulate in Europe.
For Portugal, which has become independent from the Habsburg rule, but its national strength is still weak, if it can obtain a huge interest-free loan at this time, it will be of great benefit to the growth of their national strength.
Accompanied by this loan are some firecrackers and ammunition eliminated by Daming.
Thirty percent of Ming's current front-line officers and troops have been replaced with Mines guns, and some of the replaced new-style firecrackers have already begun to be returned to the furnace. If they are sold to the Portuguese at a lower price, it will also be a channel for returning funds.
The matchlock guns currently used in Europe are much weaker than the new firecrackers used by the Ming army in terms of the power of the ammunition and the range. I believe that the Portuguese will make the right choice after testing the Daming firecrackers. .
Zhu Youjian's move is to focus on the situation after the upcoming Manila war.
As long as the Spanish army fails again, the Portuguese have a lot of opportunities.
It is a European tradition to take advantage of your illness to kill you. The Portuguese will not let go of this good opportunity to expand their territory. Maybe the Ottoman Empire, which has been fighting against Spain for many years, will also take advantage of this opportunity.This old empire is not a fuel-efficient lamp. Its national strength is now in a period of historical prosperity, and its desire for territory is endless.
From the perspective of the long-term friendly relationship between Portugal and Ming Dynasty, Zhu Youjian also hopes to see that this small country can have a certain voice in Europe, and he can use this to make more articles in the future.
He doesn't like the power of the Ottoman Empire in his heart, but at present, Daming doesn't have much means to restrict the Ottoman Empire, and Zhu Youjian also hopes to cooperate with it at a certain time in the future. The Suez Canal was opened ahead of schedule, opening up a new world pattern.
The opening of the Suez Canal will greatly shorten the sea channel distance between the East and the West, and greatly improve the safety. The Cape of Good Hope, which has made countless fleets daunting, will no longer be the only way to go. Trade between the East and the West and various Communications will also be more frequent, and Ming will gain more and greater benefits in foreign trade.
But whether the leaders of the Ottoman Empire will agree to this grand plan, Zhu Youjian is not sure in his heart. It is said that there are constant rebellions in this huge empire, the top government is caught in a struggle for power, and the whole country is in turmoil. Is there any interest in it? It is hard to say to deal with this huge project.
It's better to solve the problem of the alliance with Portugal first, and the canal will not be opened in three to five years.
In October of the 15th year of Chongzhen, Zheng Zhifeng, Minister of Honglu Temple, arrived in Haojing (Macau) by order. Accompanied by local officials, he had talks with Theodore Pavre, the Portuguese trade representative in Macau.
Because the matter was so important, on the third day after the meeting with the Ming side, Pavley returned to China on a merchant ship of his own country, and brought the relevant suggestions from the Ming side back to Portugal.
Book push: "Zhenguan starts from saving the old man", who wrote about the reign of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty, friends who are interested can move to appreciate it.
Thanks to the cake robber for the reward.
