782 Guide Emperor

Fu Hui finally couldn't hold back her tears, and when she set foot on the land controlled by her own men in the Ryukyus, her heart had never been so settled.

The two groups of recruits on the opposite side saluted in unison, and the representatives of the officials sent by the Prime Minister's Office collectively bowed and saluted! The people of the Ryukyus who were watching outside all bowed and saluted at this moment, and even the foreigners in suits and leather shoes took off their hats and bowed in salute.

There are thousands of onlookers on the dock at this moment, and the girls have never encountered such courtesy, and the corners of their excited eyes are full of tears.

But at this moment, the annoying Feng Fu spoke again, "What a transgression this is! A woman actually dares to accept the salute of all the people, it is really a reversal of yin and yang, hen Si Chen!"

Qingwen looked at Zijuan again like a murderer, and this time Zijuan scolded directly in a low voice, "Damn it, why don't you kill you......!"

"You!" Feng Fu immediately understood, "You dare to assassinate the minister......" At this moment, Weng Tongyi suddenly grabbed his hand and said tremblingly.

"Your Majesty...... Yes Yes Yes ...... It's Your Majesty!" poofed, and the old man knelt directly to the ground, "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

The heroic young man who came out of the crowd was really His Majesty the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty? Was it really the Tongzhi Emperor, who was only 12 years old after the Chinese New Year? Even the ministers who came from Sijiu City couldn't believe it.

Because there was a small soldier in a special military uniform walking in front of him, and his tiger and tiger all the way were completely different from the weak appearance in the Forbidden City before.

A light blue straight military uniform, braided hair coiled in a military cap, a pistol stuck in a cowhide belt, leather boots on his feet with shiny and thick iron palms, and a clattering sound on the stone road.

Zaichun walked a few hurriedly, and immediately helped Weng Tongyong, who was kneeling on the ground, and at this time, Fuhui Huniu and their girls also quickly knelt down on the red carpet and said hello to Your Majesty.

"Don't, don't bow down...... The prime minister decreed that it was forbidden to bow down in the Ryukyus unless there was a major court celebration...... Get up!"

"Your Majesty can't listen to Xiao Letian's nonsense!" Feng Fu on the ground hurriedly retorted, in his eyes, the emperor is not only a representative of the country's power, but also a father-like relative, and it is natural to kneel.

With a glance out of the corner of his eye, Feng Fu became even more angry, he found that only a quarter of the people watching the ceremony around him chose to kneel, and the others just bowed.

Foreigners don't care, barbarians don't know how to pay respects, but it is obvious that many of them are Han Chinese, and they dare not kneel? Or those Japanese immigrants know some rules, and most of them kneel.

Feng Fu wanted to have a seizure, but he was pulled by the old man's sleeve and didn't dare to speak, so Zaichun used all his strength to pull these people up.

"Master Weng has worked hard all the way and worked hard for the country, in fact, it should be me, the emperor, to give you a salute...... Today, I'll give my master a military salute!"

After speaking, he saluted with a straight salute, a standard Western-style military salute with a straight military posture, and at that moment the old man seemed to see a green pine that was thriving.

The emperor has really changed, the study tour for nearly a year has changed the temperament of the little emperor, in the past, there was more feminine and less masculine, but now it is completely reversed.

In fact, since the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, all the emperors of all dynasties have had this problem, and Weng Tongyi has always hidden it in his heart and dare not say that it is that one generation of emperors is more feminine than the next, which can be seen from the portraits of the imperial court.

Since the Jiaqing Dynasty, a generation of emperors has been thinner than the next, and it is the thin kind, not the kind with spirit, and the traditional Chinese literati will read medical books or Zhou Yi gossip and other miscellaneous studies.

Of course, they can know that this is all a face with insufficient vitality caused by excessive wine, not to mention masculine, even longevity is difficult.

Weng Tongyi had a feeling that the Qing Dynasty had gradually consumed their heroic spirit, and the human lord was becoming more and more feminine, which was not a good phenomenon.

But today's changes in Emperor Tongzhi made the old man see hope, Zaichun became darker and taller, the flesh on his body became porcelain, and even his eyes became sharper.

How did Xiao Lotian do it? This is amazing!

The welcoming ceremony was soon over, and Xiao Lotian's family and Lord Weng were separated and rode to the Prime Minister's Mansion in a Western carriage, while officials from the Ryukyu Rite Department came to arrange the residence of the Qing envoys and informed them that King Shangtai would receive the diplomatic documents of the Great Qing Kingdom at Shuri Castle tomorrow.

Refused the carriage arranged by the officials of the Ministry of Rites, Zaichun, four eunuchs, and four guards became the tour guides of the envoys, and everyone began to visit this miraculous port of the East China Sea.

Along the way, Lao Weng and Feng Fu opened their eyes, and there were clean and smooth stone roads under their feet, and some streets also used the latest cement floor, which is what foreigners call cement.

There are shops on both sides of the road, and all the goods you can imagine are sold here, and the clamor is endless, and all the guys are sparing no effort to sell their goods.

The streets were full of people, and they were dressed in different costumes and looks, blonde Europeans, dark-skinned Kunlun slaves, skinny South Asian natives, and short, deferential Japanese, it was a universal exposition.

Jae-chun is already very familiar with this place, and he has no idle time along the way, "Don't look at the bustle on the street, in fact, there are all small businesses here, and the real big deals are in the trading houses, do you see those places with the flag of Lotte Bank? Those places can not only provide deposit and loan services, but also provide trading places for large merchants to do business......

"There is no way to count how many goods were sent to the Ryukyus and then distributed to the whole of East Asia, and we produced bristles, rhubarb, silk, porcelain, and tea from the Qing Dynasty...... Half of the goods now need to be sold by the Ryukyus!"

"Not to mention the goods from overseas, a large part of Japan's copper mines, North American silver mines, Europa's arms and Western goods, too, must be sent here for distribution before being transferred to the Qing Dynasty, Fuso and other countries?"

"Your Majesty, isn't this an extra move? Since one Ryukyu can't eat so many goods, and they are just subcontracting and distributing, why don't merchants do business directly with the destination?" Feng Fu didn't look stubborn, but he was still very accurate in looking at the problem.

However, such a problem can't help but be difficult for the current Jaechun, and the little emperor with his eyes wide open said with a smile, "You can't think like that, although Ryukyu is thriving here, the population is limited after all, and I can't digest much of the goods...... But there is one weapon that Ryukyu has that no other place has, and that is money!"

Note: Today's second shift will be sent, and there will be another one later!
