When Wang Yuan returned to Hangzhou, it was the middle of the fourth lunar month.

He did not immediately meet with the Franc man, but looked at the report materials of the Franc man.

Zhang Xuan arched his hand and said: "General system, I will send people to investigate in Manraka Port, and there are at least thirty ships of the Franc machine!" Most of the sea ships have more than 20 guns, but fortunately, there are no big ships, and the largest Franc machine sea ship is only five or six hundred. ”

The "material" thing has nothing to do with the displacement, but specifically refers to the volume of the cabin, about 1 cubic abbot is 100 materials.

However, it can also be estimated that the displacement of five or six hundred ships is about 200 to 300 tons, which is slightly larger than the Chinese warship - today, there are only a few Ming warships left, and they have not been out to sea for a long time.

In fact, the Portuguese Viceroy of India should have a large ship of more than 800 materials.

The large ship was called the "Flower of the Sea", with a displacement of 400 tons, a particularly narrow hull, a length of 36 meters, and three masts and six sails.

It was the first Portuguese viceroy of India to sit on the ship, participated in the conquest of Socotra, participated in the conquest of the Arab settlements, and participated in the Battle of Diu as a flagship. Then, he participated in the conquest of Goa and the conquest of Malacca, which can be described as a great success.

The ship had long since passed its normal service life and lacked a large dockyard in Asia for complete repairs.

The Duke of Goa sacked the palace of the King of Malacca, carrying 60 tons of gold, 200 precious stones, and other precious goods, and sailed back to Portugal. This is equivalent to letting an old and sick BMW carry a big fat man for thousands of miles, only to die of exhaustion after only a few miles.

As soon as the "Flower of the Sea" went to sea, it sank to the bottom of the sea in the wind and waves, and the treasure was lost, and the Duke of Goa was forced to be fished up.

The treasure, which was later worth $2.6 billion, knew the location of the shipwreck. However, Indonesia, Portugal and Malaysia are at loggerheads, and no one can obtain the right to salvage, so they can only let it lie on the bottom of the sea.

The bird boats that Wang Yuan asked Zhejiang craftsmen to practice were enough for 400 materials, which was equivalent to most of the sea ships under the command of the Governor General of Portuguese India.

There are only a few Portuguese ships in Malacca, which are larger than the bird boats practiced by Wang Yuan.

Of course, naval battles cannot be purely large and small, and the artillery of the Portuguese is indeed powerful!

After learning the European cannon casting technology, Wang Yuan waited for the day when he had a tough fight with the Portuguese, knocked Malacca down, and occupied the maritime trade route between the East and the West. Could it be that the Portuguese still dared to drive the "Grand Henry" with a displacement of 1,000 tons to the East to fight?

If you really lose, the Great Henry will sink, and a bunch of countries in Europe will steal the fun, at least Spain will go crazy with joy.

During the Zhengde period, the British Empire could not even afford to rejuvenate the country by piracy, Spain could only control the American shipping routes, and Portugal was the overlord of the maritime world. The shipping lanes, from Europe to Asia, all fell into Portuguese hands, making staggering profits every year.

And European shipbuilding technology, the Grand Henry with a displacement of 1000 tons, already belongs to the ceiling of giant ships. Of the same class, Portugal only had two, and Spain did not have one for the time being.

Well, Spain is catching up.

……

"The Portuguese Viceroy of India, Fernand Pires de Andrade, has seen His Excellency the Viceroy of China." Pires took off his hat and bent down.

Malacca's translator, Yasan the Fire One, said, "The Governor of Franc Ji greets the Governor of the Celestial Empire. ”

Wang Yuan arched his hand and said, "Fortunately!" ”

Camilo followed with a greeting: "Italian Franciscan friar Russo Camilo Costazzo, it is a pleasure to meet His Excellency the Governor, may the Lord bless you." ”

The Fire Warrior Yasan translated: "Monk Frangi greets the Governor of the Celestial Empire. ”

Wang Yuan gave his hand again: "Fortunately!" ”

Suddenly, Wang Yuan asked Yasan, the Fire One, "What nationality are you from?" Doesn't look like a Tessie person. ”

Yasan the Fire One said, "Before the Lower Rank, he was an official of Manraka. ”

Wang Yuan's face turned cold, and he asked: "The palace of Manraka is occupied by the Franco, you don't want to restore the country, and you even become the enemy's translator!" What is the crime? ”

The Ming Dynasty is the country of parents in Malacca, and the king of Malacca is ready to go into exile, and the ultimate goal is to go to Beijing to ask Zhengde's father for help.

The fire man Yasan was so frightened that he knelt on the ground: "The Governor of the Celestial Empire spares his life, he has a wife and children in the next family, and he doesn't dare not be the translator of the Buddha Langjiren." ”

"If you are honest and obedient? Naturally, I will not pursue your treason! Wang Yuan said.

The Fire One Yasan hurriedly said, "But by the orders of the Governor of the Heavenly Empire." ”

Wang Yuan said with a smile: "At a critical time, it is natural to have a place for you, and you can understand it in your heart." ”

Pires asked curiously, "What is the Chinese governor talking about?" ”

The fire man Yasan looked ashamed: "He scolded me for treason. ”

Pires was a little nervous: "Is he going to pursue our occupation of Malacca?" ”

The fire man's eyes rolled wildly: "I have to bribe him with a lot of money." ”

Pires had already prepared, ordered someone to bring a box, and said: "Your Excellency the Governor of China, this is my greeting gift, and I hope to be summoned by the Emperor of China." ”

The chest opened, not silver, but gold!

Wang Yuan saw that Qian Yuan's eyes were open, and said with a smile: "Since it is so sincere, then I will accept it and donate it all to the school." ”

The firefighter Yasan hurriedly translated: "The Chinese governor wants to donate the money to the school. ”

Camilo was immediately impressed: "Your Excellency the Governor is of noble character, and the Lord will bless you." ”

Yasan the Fire Man said, "Monk Frangi is praising the Governor of the Celestial Empire. ”

Wang Yuan said to Pires: "If you want to see the Ming Emperor, you need to pay tribute to five different crops, and these crops must also be not available in the Ming Dynasty." ”

Pires was disappointed, but said: "The merchant ships returning to Portugal are already doing this, and they will definitely bring crops next year." ”

"Then come back to the emperor next year." Wang Yuan said.

Pires asked: "How can I obtain a long-term and effective trade contract if the Hangzhou City Department only issued me temporary trade documents?" ”

Wang Yuan said with a smile: "Shipbuilding technology, cannon casting technology, when the Chinese craftsmen have learned these techniques, they will naturally give you an official sea quotation document." If you dare to teach the problematic technique, don't think about having a ship enter the Chinese waters! ”

Pires hurriedly said: "There will definitely be no fake." ”

The matter was thus agreed, and Pires came with infinite hope, and made a comeback with many costs, but received no substantial reward at all.

Well, allowing him to trade in Hangzhou temporarily can be regarded as a return of real money.

Seeing that Wang Yuan didn't want to talk about business anymore, Camilo suddenly asked, "Your Excellency the Governor, have you heard of Christianity?" ”

Translator Yasan of the Fire Man: "Monk Frangi asked the Governor if he had heard of Nestorianism. ”

Wang Yuan directly reprimanded: "Jingjiao is one of the Three Yi Sects, and Emperor Taizu has long banned it. If you dare to preach in Daming, you will be imprisoned at least and killed at worst! ”

When Camilo heard this, his face was dead.

It's a pity that Camilo doesn't know Chinese, otherwise he would have to refute: The Nestorian religion forbidden by Zhu Yuanzhang is a Persian sect derived from the Orthodox Church, and it can't fight with our authentic Catholic eight poles.

(The name of the Portuguese governor is mistaken, the real governor is called Albergaria, and Pires is only a subordinate of the governor.) If you are wrong, you will be wrong, and you will not be too lazy to correct it. ）
