. Your Highness, so you are here. "After the dinner, Osten came to me with Ding Chaot| and the Mulander translator: "Our guests are looking for you, so I brought them here. Your Highness, what are you looking at? "
He nodded to the two Ding Dynasty envoys, and then replied to Ostan: "Looking at the young emperor and queen of this ancient empire, haha They look more like a brother and sister than a couple, don't they? .¡±
¡°Hiss¡ª¡± After hearing what I said, Osten turned back and looked at me: ¡°I thought you were feeling happy for them.¡±
"" After hearing what Ostein said, he was speechless. After a while, he looked at the unruly Ostein and said, "You talk too much."
"hehe¡¡"
"Uh Excuse me, Your Highness the King of Western Qin." At this moment, Dong Liangjun next to him interrupted: "Excuse me, during the coronation ceremony during the day, does the Queen of Dong Qin have the status of her own palace?"
"You can understand it that way." He nodded, confirming Dong Liangjun's statement. "Because there can only be one Queen of Dong Qin." After finishing speaking, he paused for a while and said to Dong Liangjun and Ding Chao: "I wonder how long the two ambassadors can stay in the Western Continent? I think if time permits, , I hope you can stay in the Western Continent for a while, because I want to customize more mechanical clocks to give to your royal members, ministers and nobles of the Ding Dynasty."
After listening to the translation of the Mulander people, Dong Liangjun and the envoy Dingchao looked at each other, and then gave me a deep salute: "Please allow us to thank His Highness the King of Western Qin on behalf of the royal family and officials of the Dingchao imperial court. "
After giving the deep salute, the Ding Dynasty envoy raised his head and continued with a smile on his face: "His Royal Highness the King of Western Qin, in accordance with your wishes, we still have plenty of time. Our fleet will not arrive from Muland until next spring. The empire set sail back to the Ding Dynasty, just in time to catch up with the southern monsoon in the summer. However, Your Highness you spend so much, I wonder how we should repay you? As far as I know, it is just a building without gold and silver decoration. The clock is worth a thousand taels of silver. Your Highness, you know that the imperial court of our Ding Dynasty"
"I know!" He smiled and nodded. "Three hundred mechanical clocks with their own characteristics, are they enough?"
"Three hundred?" This time it was Dong Liangjun's turn to be surprised. He knew the value of these clocks. A few days ago, he specifically asked me about the production process of those clocks. These clocks were entirely due to the Holy Lana Empire. Watches are handmade by famous watchmakers, so it is not surprising that they are so expensive. Compared with the glass products of Winged Lion City-State more than ten years ago, this is considered cheap.
"Enough. Enough!" Dong Liangjun and Ding Chao's special envoy nodded quickly.
A clock costs two thousand silver crowns. Three hundred clocks are almost six thousand gold krits. Compared to the gift given to me by Emperor Dingchao. I still make money. For the royal family members and officials who received gifts from Ding Dynasty. They also make money. certainly. The reason why I gave up part of the royal income was for my own purpose.
"Well" I saw that the two Ding Dynasty Worlds were satisfied with the gift I promised. I smiled and continued: "The two special envoys are here today. I will not hide it from you. The reason why I gave this gift is not only to express the friendship of our imperial family to Ding Dynasty, but also for the two ambassadors."
"Oh? For us?" Listen. Ding Chao Zhengshi looked at Dong Liangjun beside him in confusion.
Questions about the official envoy of Ding Dynasty. Dong Liangjun was about to answer. But I stopped him and beat him down. "Haha Lord Yong. Lord Dongliang told me the attitude of the Ding Dynasty towards ocean trade a few days ago. To be honest. If your country really stops this kind of ocean voyage, then as a result, you want to communicate with me. I will feel very sorry if your country maintains friendly relations. Therefore, sending these gifts is not only to express our friendship to the dignitaries of your country. I also hope that the two ambassadors can make good use of these gifts and persuade more dignitaries. Let They understand that such an ocean trip is beneficial to them. Only by allowing more people to benefit from it will the trade routes between us not be interrupted. No one will stop for various reasons. This kind of trade activity is beneficial to both sides. Therefore, the Ding Dynasty side will be left to the two adults. If good news comes, then there is no doubt that in the future, the history books of the Holy Rana Empire and the Ding Dynasty will definitely be for these two people. Your Excellency has a place. Just like those famous envoys in the history of the Western Continent and your country. They have made indelible contributions to civilized exchanges."
When my words were translated to the official envoy of the Ding Dynasty, that is, the mediocre man. I saw him listening to the Mulander translation, making Master Yong more and more excited. The nostrils kept opening slightly. It looks like an excited bull.
It seems that being recorded in history has a fatal attraction for the mediocre man in front of me.
As for"Liangjun," he didn't answer immediately. Instead, he made a half-circle cross with his hands and gave me a very formal bow. When Dong Liangjun raised his head again, looking at Dong Liangjun, I continued: "Those who are blocked and rejected by a locked door will only be distant guests and friends. Only a gentleman will be rejected by a closed door." Outside, robbers will never be stopped by locked doors. I hope you can take this sentence back with your gifts so that more people can understand. There are friends who live far away
Isn¡¯t this something to be happy about? "
He Dongliangjun, the envoy of Heding Dynasty, said this not only because of the benefits brought by commercial trade. To be honest, from Dong Liangjun, I saw many virtues and self-confidence that had long since disappeared in my hometown. The experience of living with the Gotun people for ten years has enabled me to experience the habits of the people in my previous hometown from another perspective. To be honest, there are really not many virtues that I can feel from my hometown in my previous life. What makes people miss a nation is not the land under their feet and its wealth, but the soul of that nation. It just so happens that I live in an era where we have long forgotten who we are. At least I haven't seen the soul of the nation from anyone around me. All my knowledge in the past was from books and media.
For me personally, the soul of a nation is not beautified by powerful propaganda, but very simply, as long as you live there you can easily feel it from the people living around you, and that is the most real thing. , every bit of life. There is no need to wait until war or disaster strikes to reflect it. When war or disaster strikes, it reflects more the brilliance of human nature rather than the habits of the nation.
The appearance of Dong Liangjun is like a hope to me, used to fill the shortcomings in my heart. A confident and self-disciplined person from Ding Dynasty who served as an official and served the common people. He respected tradition and dared to face new things. In terms of personality, he was more charming than the Gordon people who once moved me. He reminded me of Peter, the first imperial prime minister of the Holy Rana Empire.
"These qualities of Dong Liangjun are not something I read in books or heard from other channels, but I completely felt them while getting along with him. People have compassion for all beautiful things, so I hope that through my own efforts, this world can have a future that is different from the past. Maybe the country of Seris can turn a new page, or maybe they will repeat the mistakes of my hometown in their previous life because of their own shortcomings. I can only go so far, and which one they choose is ultimately up to them.
As a king, based on the examples I know from my previous life education, I am obviously unqualified. Because those famous foreign kings in the past life always forgot their hometown as quickly as possible, accepted everything they ruled the country, and based on the interests of the people who ruled the country. The most typical example is the female czarina who married from Prussia to czarist Russia. It only took her one year to become a more Russian monarch than her husband. To become one of the most respected czars in Russian history, as well as many previous kings in Western history, more than ten years is obviously too long.
I have too much anger and regret about my hometown in my previous life. Now I finally have a resolution and I have made a new choice. I personally hope that the Ding Dynasty in this world can make the right choice, because in that case, I can still look at the people of the Seris Ding Dynasty with an appreciative attitude. If their choice is to follow the path of my hometown in the previous life, then there is nothing I can do about it. In the end, people like Dong Liangjun disappeared in Seris Country, and then there was nothing else worth appreciating in that country.
In the information age of my previous life, no one remembers the dozens of times in the history of my hometown¡¯s long-established pharmacies that they burned less effective finished medicines on the street. In fact, those medicines were completely qualified. They did this just to maintain the good quality of the pharmacies. Tradition and Reputation. My hometown is not without serious consideration in history, and that is what I appreciate the most, and it is also the reason why I now want to help Dong Liangjun change the Ding Dynasty. As for technology and trade exchanges, that comes second. Throughout history, a serious and responsible nation has never had to worry about falling behind in new technologies. Their seriousness in education enables them to cultivate qualified and responsible talents. When these talents begin to establish themselves in their jobs, that character will soon be reflected in the research and products they engage in.
As for now, I plan to order the clock that I want to give to the imperial court of the Ding Dynasty from the watch shop of the Bai Yuan family, the former Ordnance Director of the Gordon Legion. Bai Yuan has now resigned from his position in the Gordon Legion because his old father hopes that he can inherit the watch industry that Bai Yuan's family has been running for a short time. I heard that the once-declined old Baron Bai Yuan had good watchmaking skills, but even now that his only son Bai Yuan has surpassed him in title and is highly valued by me, the old baron still hopes that his only son will be a good watchmaker.Enough to inherit his craftsmanship. Bai Yuan chose to obey his father's wishes, resigned from all his positions in the Gordon Legion, and returned to a rural town in the Weeping Willow City area to inherit his father's clock workshop.
Although I feel sorry for Bai Yuan, because if he continues to serve in the Imperial Army, then within ten years he is likely to join the Imperial Ministry of Affairs and become one of the military ministers of the Holy Rana Empire. Butsince he has already proposed it to me and stated that this is a tradition formed by their family during the period of decline, it is not good for me to stop it. Handing over the order of 300 mechanical clocks to the watch workshop of Bai Yuan's family can be regarded as my own compensation for this beloved general. Maybe becoming a watch tycoon is not bad for him. (To be continued,).
