.,

After Sir Andres said these words, his face was full of sadness.

The Governor's Mansion is already in a mess. It shouldn't be long before the angry soldiers and rioters will kill here. The envoys and nobles from various countries have already escaped cleanly.

As for myself, I have nowhere to go.

Sir Andres said to his entourage: "A chaotic or brand-new era will begin. What awaits us is either a long night, or the dawn of dawn, but all of this has no meaning to me anymore. This is my end, please take my last advice and tell His Majesty the King. At this moment, we must unite the French people effectively, and we cannot continue to intrigue with the French people. Put down the rebellion in the Northern Province, if the Northern Province is allowed to be occupied by the rebels, then, sooner or later, this place will become the birthplace of the plague."

The entourage was confused and did not understand the meaning of Sir Andres' words at all, but at this moment, it was obvious that he was unwilling to stay any longer, because there were already angry voices from outside, and the few guards seemed to be in harmony with The rioters outside have already clashed.

The entourage didn't even look at Sir Andres, they hurried away with their swords in a panic, and disappeared immediately.

Sir Andres looked at the direction where the subordinate was going, and couldn't help smiling wryly. He knew that his subordinate would not speak for him.

Before coming to the Northern Province, he was just a nobleman who, like everyone else, was devoted to participating in palace salons and queuing, and occasionally jealous of women. There are games like this in the world.

And now...he's got the hang of it.

It's a pity that the game is over and the winner has been divided.

The reason why he believes that Spain must conclude an alliance with France at this time is naturally to ensure that the Northern Province is still in the hands of the Habsburgs, and the rebellion must be eliminated.

Unfortunately, the North Province is next to France, and at the same time it is adjacent to the German Northern States in the Holy Roman Empire.

France has been competing with the Habsburgs for the supremacy of Europe. Just over ten years ago, the Spanish army defeated the French army so badly that the French had to choose to make peace with the Ottoman Empire. The two sides were at war with each other, even this time Together, it is only temporary.

The French were obviously happy that the Habsburgs lost control of the North Province, after all, for them, anything that weakened the Habsburgs was optimistic.

As for the German states, although they were nominally subject to the King of Spain who was crowned Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire, in fact, the emperor had limited control over them. They were also terrified, and the neighboring Northern Province, the territory of the Habsburg family, had always made them restless.

And once the rebels get their connivance, the consequences...may be even worse.

At this moment, a large number of rioters rushed into the city hall angrily.

They carry all kinds of weapons.

Sir Andres stood straight until a mob stepped forward and knocked him down with a punch: "He's a Spaniard!"

He grinned in pain, but he didn't even have the room to resist, and the rioters punched him again.

And the rioters also became overwhelmed by the word "Spanish", and rushed towards him one after another.

………………

The fleet slowly followed the waves.

At this time, Liu Jin and Wang Xizuo raised their eyebrows on the leading ship flying the Portuguese flag, beaming with joy.

Liu Wenshan looked down at the book. In fact, only God knows how much success this time, because no one had time to count. All the gold coins and silver dollars were hastily loaded onto the ship, and then pulled out to the open sea , in the open sea, there is a fleet of Ming Dynasty to meet them.

But there was no joy on Liu Wenshan's face.

Before coming here, he worked hard to learn Franz's language from Wang Xizuo.

After that, in other time, he would read some books about Franji. The whole Franji obviously has different traditions. This is a brand new civilization, and there are too many complicated things on this continent.

China has regarded itself as a kingdom of heaven for a long time, and regards other countries as barbarians, but in the new learning, it is not so arrogant.

It pays more attention to pragmatism, and obeys the principle of knowing yourself and the enemy more when it comes to external affairs.

What Liu Wenshan is reading now is a French chivalry novel. After reading it all night, he raised his head and looked at the happy Liu Jin and Wang Xizuo.

Liu Wenshan closed his eyes for a moment, then opened them again immediately, his eyes fell on Wang Xizuo, and he couldn't help sighing.

"Wang Xizuo."

"exist."

Liu Wenshan looked at him very seriously, and asked word by word: "Have you thought about your future?"

"The future?" Wang Xizuo hesitated, looking at Liu Wenshan in confusion.

Liu Wenshan said with a smile: "It means, how will you live your life."

"When I return to Daming, at that time, I will own a lot of land, and I will have many wives and concubines. If I want to be loved by Duke Qi, I will get a good official position, and I will have more children..."

Speaking of these, Wang Xizuo's eyes lit up, and his face looked yearning.

Liu Wenshan shook his head: "No, you can get more."

Wang Xizuo looked at Liu Wenshan in surprise.

Liu Wenshan took a sip of white water and stared at Wang Xizuo with a smile.

"What do you think of the situation in the Northern Province?"

"There will be a huge rebellion, and even this rebellion, there will be a risk of contagion."

"What's next?" Liu Wenshan asked persuasively.

Wang Xizuo thought about it carefully before blurting out his analysis.

"I think, next, they will elect a new king to become independent from the Spanish rule. Before that, the Northern Province has been not very friendly to their Spanish king. This time, it is a fuse. Or, They will be a republic, like Venice or Genoa."

Liu Wenshan nodded, and continued to ask: "What next?"

then……

Wang Xizuo was taken aback for a moment, he could no longer imagine, his eyes looking at Liu Wenshan were full of confusion.

The corners of Liu Wenshan's mouth slightly curved, and he said lightly: "Then, let me tell you, this new country will soon collapse, no matter who they elect, maybe the people in the northern province will cheer him now, But you have to understand that the reason why people choose the new king is that they think that the new king can improve their situation, but in fact, it will not, because everyone's wealth has almost disappeared."

"Countless people will be in debt, and the vast majority of people will sell their property at a low price in order to compensate for the debt, but in fact, no one is willing to buy their property, because there are not many gold and silver coins on the market. , This will lead to a rise in the price of gold and silver, the entire business has been uprooted, the soldiers there will continue to owe their wages, the merchants there will desperately sell their goods, but no one cares about them, those nobles, their real estate , is worthless now... This new king will not be long before he will be knocked down by those who once supported them, and after that, the chaos will continue, right?"

Wang Xizuo thought about it and nodded.

correct.

The entire northern province has been completely drained, and the once prosperous land has now become a source of chaos.

This is not something that can be solved by relying on the new king.

Liu Wenshan saw that Wang Xizuo understood what he said, so he continued to mention something.

"So at this time, you should go back to the northern province."

"Ah..." Wang Xizuo looked at Liu Wenshan in surprise, as if he didn't understand what it meant.

The source of chaos, what is he going to do?

Liu Wenshan smiled at him.

"In the current Northern Province, or even the entire Franji, whoever owns the gold and silver is the owner of the Northern Province."

Wang Xizuo was taken aback: "This... this... Mr. Liu Mingjian, if I go, what will happen if someone finds out?"

"It is to be seen through." Liu Wenshan said with a smile: "For the rebels in the northern province, what they need most now is to solve the current crisis, but who can solve this crisis? Who has the money to stabilize the market? It is in the interests of the vast majority of people, so they are too lazy to care about the identity of the person who saved them."

"Furthermore, after the rebellion, wouldn't the entire northern province be worried that the Spaniards would suppress the rebellion? And at this time, if you claim that you are leaving under orders, it is because Duke Qi of the Ming Dynasty is pity for the ordinary people in the northern province. Not long ago, the Spanish army was defeated. This news, in Franji, has long been known. If you appear at this time, it is enough to make the rebels think that they have a backer, although Daming and Franji are far away , but these rebels are mostly mobs for the time being, how can they not be afraid of Spain, but your appearance just caters to their needs for security."

Liu Wenshan looked at the surprised Wang Xizuo, couldn't help but pause for a while, and then analyzed seriously and carefully.

"As long as these two problems are solved, there will still be people who will have the time to worry about your identity? Right now, the only thing you can do is to get there and control the rebels, and immediately befriend the French. Now the French are also in a state of distress. I'm afraid I don't care about you, and as for the Spaniards, they are temporarily in danger. They don't have a few years of hard work, and I'm afraid they won't be able to slow down. At that time, if you can gain a foothold in the northern province, Duke Qi will send a fleet. Cooperate with you from the inside out."

Wang Xizuo's face was blue and white, he knew very well that although Liu Wenshan analyzed him clearly, but... Wang Xizuo understood that there were too many difficulties here, and if one was not good, he would be regarded as dead. landed.
