The Ming Dynasty’s Prodigal Son

After reading the letter, Fang Jifan couldn't help but frown: "Wang Xiuo is such a guy, he really has some skills, haha ​​... When he comes back, reward him dozens of acres of land."

Fang Jifan said nothing but encountered a difficult problem.

The delegation ...

How to entertain?

I can't speak Franco.

Only a few words Hello and Good touch you.

He was silent for a long time, and saw Zhu Hou as he was eager to try. He was happy: "His Royal Highness, there is something that must be entrusted to the Royal Highness to go and do it."

"What are you doing." Zhu Houzhao looked at Fang Jifan alertly.

Fang Jifan said: "His Royal Highness Prince Bogutong is today, and it is amazing to know the languages ​​of all nations."

Zhu Houzhao's vigilance gradually dropped, and he said with delight: "This is nothing, and this palace has only learned more than a dozen kinds. In case of this palace. "

Fang Jifan said: "Now there is a group of Franco robots, His Royal Highness Prince is distinguished, should let them feel the feeling of being at home, if the Royal Highness Prince can take them to play and walk, this would be better . "

Ordinary people go to entertain Fang Jifan.

These people owe their money.

It is the uncle who owes money.

These guys, if they returned to the Franco machine, chopped their debt agent Wang Xi, who would they go to?

For myself, his temper is a little bit irritable, and His Royal Highness is not the same. He has no mastery of things like eating, drinking and playing.

Zhu Houzhao uttered: "It turned out to be such a small thing, or else, try this palace, but what are you going to do?"

"Chen had to immediately prepare a copy, sort out the message from the Franco machine, and report it to His Majesty. His Majesty paid special attention to the Northern Province. It is not a trivial matter. I'm afraid that the DPRK and China will discuss it again.

"That's up to the palace." Zhu Hou Zhao seemed very happy.

Seeing Zhu Houzhao agree so happy, it made Fang Jifan begin to doubt his life ... Generally speaking, the more simply His Royal Highness the Prince, the greater the chance of an accident.

However, Fang Jifan really thought about how to digest the news from the Franco machine. Next, North Korea was afraid that it would be a lip service. Northern Province is a fulcrum for the Ming Dynasty Franco machine. A northern province that is tens of thousands of miles away is nothing, but it is about the Ming Dynasty's national policy of the Franco, which is not simple.

…………

Ziller and the delegation members landed from Tianjin.

As soon as they arrived in Tianjin, they were shocked by the scene in front of them.

This is a much larger harbor than the northern province.

After that, without waiting for them to stay, a horse-drawn carriage took them into the heart of Daming.

They saw villages everywhere along the way, and there was a steady stream on the road, and even ... in the distance, a huge steel monster could be seen whimpering.

This visit is more of a frustration.

Just like the French, in order to break the siege of the Spanish kingdom, they made peace with the Ottomans.

This time ... They came to Daming because they had to seek outside help after the rebellion.

Ziller is an aristocrat. His family can be traced back to the period of the Western Roman Empire. His family has always been in the northern province and has a certain relationship with the royal family of France.

It's just that Ziller, like all Dutch nobles, hated the rulers of Spain, and at the same time, was very vigilant about the eyes of the French kingdom.

After the British-French War, the French King occupied an absolute advantage. In the territory of the French Kingdom, he began to cut off the power of the nobility and turned countless territories into provinces directly under the king. The royal family became the most powerful royal family in Europe, but it also made many nobles complain.

Now ... many people have settled down.

They realized that Lord Governor did not deceive themselves.

When they arrived in Beijing, they were shocked by this huge city with more than one million people.

They saw a series of residential areas, criss-cross streets, countless horses and horses. Compared with it, the northern province, even the largest city, is more like a village.

They arrived at a place, and then a nobleman greeted them with many squires.

The man was wearing a decent shirt and a chic crown on his head. He said: "Do you know French, Spanish, or English."

This is Spanish.

Up and down the delegation, you look at me, I look at you.

They all speak Spanish.

But out of disgust with the Spaniards, Ziller said: "We all speak French."

Then, the person's language began to switch: "That's great. This palace also likes to speak French the most. Is that how it is spoken? Will you listen to it and have some obstacles?"

This noble person who claims to be the palace clearly has a strong accent, but ... he has a clear bite and there is no barrier to communication.

This person is of course Zhu Houzhao.

Zhu Houzhao continued: "Qi Guogong has something to do. In these two days, let this palace take you around and take a look."

Ziller and others did not know the identity of Zhu Houzhao.

Zhu Houzhao was too lazy to say.

He took people and began to tour around the capital, from the school, to the hospital, to the theater, and even ... There is a steam engine station, there is the Yamen Gate of Suncheon, there is a garden between Xincheng and Wuhuan, and there are various workshop.

Ziller's eyes were straight.

He can neither imagine that a city can accommodate such a huge population, nor how much productivity such a huge city can bring.

He went to watch flowers, but it was more like Grandma Liu entered the Grand View Garden.

Immediately afterwards, he was even taken by Zhu Houzhao and visited a newly built mansion, which was a five-story building, a red brick house, with cement in it.

The weather was a bit cold, and there was heating in the house. People entered the house and did not want to come out.

This is a new building, not far from the sales office.

There seem to be many people, people are congested at the door of the sales office, sweating and raining, all shouting something.

Ziller and others are puzzled.

Then, the salesman came to Zhu Houzhao respectfully and said something, Ziller did not hold back, and waited for someone to leave before looking at Zhu Houzhao: "Your Excellency, what is this?"

They are all fresh and exciting for everything here.

The city here is dozens of times larger than Paris.

Many facilities are the first time they have seen them.

Zhu Hou Zhao said: "Someone came to buy a house and grabbed too much, noisy and noisy, but unfortunately, it has been sold out. If you don't buy it, you must scream."

Ziller and others looked at each other.

Buy a house ... a house ... can it be sold like this?

This reminded them of tulips.

"Your Excellency ... I think ... the popularity of the property is not necessarily a good thing."

"Who said?" Zhu Hou looked at Ziller with a smile.

Ziller is very real: "This property is just masonry, no matter how beautiful it is, it will not be robbed."

Zhu Houzhao stood on the window sill and pointed out the window sill: "The house is piled of earth and wood. Does it cost anything?"

Ziller is happy to discuss this issue with Zhu Houzhao.

Zhu Hou Zhao made them nod subconsciously.

Zhu Houzhao said again: "Look, if you live here, going out is the road. Is this road silver?"

Everyone looked at the straight road, and Ziller nodded first: "Yes, such a road can provide a lot of convenience."

"Look in the distance, the chimney is the workshop. This workshop is the work, and then two streets, the school, and the hospital there. I bought a house, and it is more than a shelter from the wind and rain. This is related to A family of young people reading, entertaining, and working, you look again ... "

Zhu Hou Zhao ordered people to take the map: "This is where we are. Have you noticed that if you sell one piece of land here, you will lose one piece? This is a good place, not to mention, it only costs a dozen or two silver, You can buy the house, where is there such a good thing in the world. "

Ziller and others were shocked.

A dozen or two silvers.

They roughly understand the value of Daming currency.

This is equivalent to four Spanish gold coins.

The four Spanish gold coins, although of great value, are not too many for the delegation, even if they have experienced a crisis, but the thin dead camel is bigger than the horse ...

so cheap?

"Because, Xishan Bank, provides loans, the interest rate is extremely low, guess what? Only five points ..."

call……

The accompanying businessmen from the visiting delegation exclaimed.

Lending in Europe is still at a very primitive stage, and banks have not yet appeared. As for loans, most of them are private loans by TAI people, but the interest is terrible. Five points, this is already a good person, inflation It has always existed, whether it is Europe or Daming, if it is still a TAI businessman, their interest may be more than five times.

People looked at Zhu Houzhao in surprise.

Zhu Houzhao said with a smile: "It only takes dozens of silver ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ to live here. Is it comfortable? Is it a loss? Look at this house, the public security is excellent, and there are special management staff below Every day, there is a dedicated cottage, and ... you see ... there is also heating, you see this glass window ... "

Zhu Houzhao talked about the advantages of this house.

Ziller and others began to whisper again, then they gradually began to understand some of the reasons why those people rob the house.

Tulips ... that's a fruit, but the house ... seems ... to have its value.

People stood on the windowsill on the fifth floor and looked out of the window. There was also a bazaar on the street below. The bazaar was bustling and bustling.

Ziller lamented that if ... he bought a property, not a tulip, maybe ... his situation would not be so bad.

but……

It seems that the land and real estate in the Northern Province itself do not seem to have much value.
