- About three hours later, Lisbon's administrator Megan arrived at the port with her men.
After arriving at the port, he learned from Wang Shan that Zhao Hongyu did not want to get off the ship at all.
Therefore, he quickly sent someone to notify the noble companions who had received his notice and went to the manor to rush to the dock.
Since this somewhat eccentric crown prince doesn¡¯t like to go ashore, just let him be.
Meghan doesn¡¯t think there¡¯s anything bad about it.
Master, there are always some weird temper and personality, isn't it?
Therefore, Meghan was invited to the ship. After all, he represented Lisbon officials. And he himself is the highest official in charge of this city, so Zhao Hongyu cannot neglect him.
He didn¡¯t find out until Megan met Zhao Hongyu after getting on the boat.
It turns out that His Majesty the Crown Prince is so young, he may not even be eighteen years old.
Finally, while waiting for other nobles, Megan chatted with Zhao Hongyu.
When talking with Zhao Hongyu, he found that the crown prince's Spanish was very authentic, and he even spoke some slang very accurately, which made him very curious.
Wang Shan is clear about this. His Highness has a big language plug-in, so there is nothing strange about speaking Spanish.
But Megan didn¡¯t know that, so Zhao Hongyu suddenly became tall and mysterious in his heart.
In addition, Zhao Hongyu showed a little bit of pretense in every move he made, which made Meghan even more impressed.
In today¡¯s Europe, there is no so-called aristocratic style.
The trend of aristocratic style slowly became popular in Europe and became a trend until Louis XIII came to power in France.
The so-called aristocratic style nowadays is just to have sex with your lover, and then apply white powder on your face in a fancy way.
"Compared to Zhao Hongyu's eighteenth-century aristocratic style that he learned from blockbusters, the aristocrats at this time were really scum.
In addition, Zhao Hongyu said two sonnets, which immediately shocked Megan.
It is indeed a heir trained by an empire, and it really has noble style.
At the same time, the guards on Zhao Hongyu's battleship were all in high spirits, and their clothes were eye-catching.
It looked like a European army. It looked like beggars begging for food, or else it looked like a riot and bandits.
"As the Crown Prince, Your Highness is able to cross the sea to come to us alone. Your courage is really worthy of my appreciation." Meghan had been carefully looking for topics with Zhao Hongyu, and kept observing during the conversation. Zhao Hongyu, look at his reaction to certain topics.
He now needs to find out what Zhao Hongyu likes and dislikes, and then prescribe the right medicine.
Yes, this is a moving gold mine, and the benefits are obvious as long as you can gain his friendship.
Don't look at the products released on the surface of the Song Empire, Meghan always believes that there are better products in the Song Empire, but they have not taken it out.
Anyway, the trade quota is now saturated, so you might as well look for other products and then monopolize them.
It would be even better if we could get the support of the Imperial Crown Prince on the matter of monopoly.
But how can we get the support of the crown prince?
Well, it¡¯s very simple, just gain his friendship.
It doesn¡¯t matter if things are not as he guessed. Will there be any less benefits from having this level of friendship?
As long as you are not a fool, you can understand this.
Although the world of this world is not as good as that of later generations, people are not fools.
Especially in matters closely related to interests, their performance is usually impressive.
The conversation with Megan is very pleasant. He always knows how to cooperate with you and makes you like him in just a few words.
Deliberate and unpretentious flattery is just right, and flattery is also a skill.
And Megan did it perfectly.
Zhao Hongyu also knew that Megan was flattering him and had been cooperating with him.
But he still enjoyed it.
"We call this ocean that separates America and Europe the Atlantic Ocean. It takes a little courage to cross it and get here. After all, you can never predict what you will encounter on the sea. Storms and monsters in the deep sea can be It¡¯s all fatal.¡±Zhao Hongyu said to Megan with a smile.
¡°But Your Highness, you don¡¯t lack the courage, don¡¯t you, so you are now in Lisbon.¡± Meghan responded with a smile. "I don't know where Your Highness wants to go this time. Are you visiting Europe or" At this point, Meghan pretended to salute, raised her hand and slapped her mouth a few times.
"Oh, look at me, what a stupid person. How could I ask such a question? Your Highness, please don't blame me." You have to say that this guy is really good at pretending and has very good acting skills.
When you get along with him, it's hard to dislike him.
¡°But Zhao Hongyu is not a country bumpkin of this era, how could he be deceived by his performance.
¡°Besides, after experiencing the baptism of the explosion of information culture in later generations, Zhao Hongyu has never seen what kind of person he is. What's more, Zhao Hongyu didn't take Megan's performance to heart at all because of the bombardment of various blockbusters.
But Zhao Hongyu still cooperates with him very much, because Zhao Hongyu is pretending to be a young crown prince who is not experienced in the world and is very naive.
"I plan to travel around Europe. Nowadays, trade between European countries and our empire is very frequent. I am very curious about the countries here, so I plan to come here." Zhao Hongyu is also the kind of person who is very capable of deceiving. Human, Meghan never thought about this at all.
"And one of my wives is Countess Samuel of France. Of course, her title will be changed now. Samuel is the family name of the guy who died, isn't it."
Zhao Hongyu reached into his jacket pocket, took out a white handkerchief, gently wiped the corners of his mouth and then looked sideways at Meghan.
"Yes, Your Highness, according to the rules, the lady can no longer use the title Samuel. However, the Earl is sure to be replaced. Congratulations."
Megan flattered, and at the same time recorded this information in her heart.
The crown prince of the American Song Empire had a wife who was a count from Europe, and she was also from France. This is a very important message. How come such a message has not been received? What a failure.
Megan felt that she needed to let the captains know what information was the most important.
In fact, Megan really wrongly blamed the captains under his family, and they received this information.
It¡¯s just a pity that they haven¡¯t returned to Europe yet. Who knew that Zhao Hongyu and his battleships were so fast, and after those unlucky guys left the Americas, they would go to Africa to sell goods.
If it is not necessary, generally speaking, merchant ships rarely return to the homeland unless there is something very important.
Of course, the news that Zhao Hongyu married a wife and was also a European countess was really not taken to heart by most people at sea.
To them, this is just a man marrying a wife, there is nothing new.
Only a small number of people will remember this news and make some associations.
There are too few such people, and they also have another identity, that is, ¡®spies¡¯.
"Aha, I wonder if I have the honor to meet this beautiful countess." Meghan changed the topic to Sarah, "Your love story must be very touching, separated by an ocean. We all meet them, it¡¯s really a fateful thing.¡±
Megan is very good at talking.
"Of course, no problem."
Zhao Hongyu nodded slightly and asked Wang Shan to call Sara out after saying it was okay.
Because of Megan¡¯s arrival, Sarah and Emma had already hid in the captain¡¯s room, because Emma told her that according to Indian rules, if their husbands had guests, they women were not allowed to see anyone.
Unless their husbands let them go out.
Although Sarah was very dismissive of this rule, considering that Emma was the eldest wife, she could only obey this rule.
God knows what Emma will do to her if she disobeys.
When she was in Manhattan, many people told her that the way Indian women punished disobedient wives of low status was very terrifying.
The people who said these words were Wang Shan and Zhang Tie.
??????????????? In short, they were talking about being as scary as possible, and Sara was so scared that she couldn¡¯t sleep for a few days.
In fact, they were also thinking about Emma to prevent Sara from bullying her.
In their eyes, Emma is pure and cute without any scheming. Although she is a bit greedy for money, it is not a problem.
But Sarah is different.
She is very mature and a European aristocrat. She is more scheming than Emma.
If you really think about it, Emma is really no match for her.
For Zhao Hongyu, there can be many women by his side, but as a wife, only Emma is the most suitable.
The reason is simple. Emma is simply unscheming and has no ambition.
So, Wang Shan and the others felt that they had to protect Emma and at the same time maintain her status in the family they formed with Zhao Hongyu.
¡° Then Sarah will definitely have a hard time.
Fortunately, Wang Shan and the others didn¡¯t do anything too extreme. They just made up some family rules and regulations for the Indian eldest wife and asked Sara to abide by them.
Emma¡¯s father Hei Xiong supports this matter, because it is very good for his daughter, right?
Black Bear is not stupid, he can tell the difference between good and bad.
Therefore, he was very cooperative and had an in-depth conversation with Sara, vaguely revealing the rights of the Mohican eldest wife.
It was when Zhao Hongyu took Emma and Sara to the Manhattan Island Manor that Black Bear and his wife, Zhao Hongyu¡¯s mother-in-law, took turns educating Sara.
Therefore, Sara is convinced of this.
From then on, she was very respectful to Emma, ??and she was deeply afraid that she would be punished by the eldest wife's family laws if she did something wrong.
Therefore, she was disdainful. After hearing that it was an Indian family rule, this was the reason why she still abided by this rule.
"Your Highness, please ask the two queens to come with me."
After Wang Shan arrived at the captain's room, he announced at the door.
Emma and Sara looked at each other, and then the two of them followed Wang Shan out.
Emma is wearing a modified uniform of the queuing party, with a crown made of eagle feathers on her head, and her long tail feathers are held up to her waist. This is a headdress only worn by leaders of large Indian tribes. Dressing like Emma is called noble in America.
? Red party jacket, white buttons, golden gilt trim, black trousers and shiny smooth leather boots.
?? Okay, this kind of dressing up is called nondescript.
But the problem is that Emma thinks this looks good, and it is a combination of Indian style and Song Empire style clothing.
It is poorly seen that this kind of clothing of the queuing party is not in the Chinese style.
"But Zhao Hongyu won't tell her clearly. Anyway, if the little girl likes it, just let her go.
Zhao Hongyu also thinks it¡¯s very good.
Hanging from her waist was a European rapier and a short blunderbuss with a beautiful gold handle.
The little girl straightened her back, raised her little face slightly, and walked over very proudly.
Wang Shan, who was behind Emma, ??was very satisfied with Emma¡¯s performance.
You must know that what Emma is showing now was all taught by him, Song Hu and Zhang Tie.
Poor Emma, ??she doesn¡¯t know that what she has learned was compiled by three unscrupulous guys.
Although the three of them deceived Emma, ??saying that this was serious court etiquette
Behind Emma, ??Sarah was wearing a high-necked, tight-waisted tutu skirt, a pair of black high-top leather shoes, and a folding fan in her hand.
On her head, she wore a small top hat, and she tied her long golden hair together.
This is a lady's dress that only existed in the 18th century, but now it was brought out by Zhao Hongyu and others, and it was regarded as the clothing trend of the empire.
It has to be said that there is a reason why this kind of dress was popular in the eighteenth century.
¡°After Zhao Hongyu taught Sara, Sara immediately liked this kind of dress.
Generally speaking, Zhao Hongyu can still accept it compared to the busty and puffy skirts of this era.
Especially the small folding fan, which is the finishing touch for Sara.
¡°This is something from the East, it¡¯s extremely expensive.
Not even Emma has it, only I have it.
When Zhao Hongyu deceived Sara out of conscience, Sara felt extremely sweet at the time.
A folding fan that was sold casually for ten yuan was described by Zhao Hongyu as a 'precious' item that could only be bought with ten taels of gold.
It just so happens that Europeans in this era also particularly liked the mysterious and rich East, especially the silk and daily necessities from the East.
So, how could Sarah not like it.
She slapped Zhao Hongyu and his wife on the spot.
"Well, Your Highness, your luck makes all the men in the world jealous. Your two queens are so beautiful."
When Emma and Sara came over under the leadership of Wang Shan, Megan made a very exaggerated expression, raised her hands to hold her breasts and said to Zhao Hongyu with a painful expression.
