Section 1032 Offence of the Statue of the Great God
Popular science, in the Turkish bureaucratic system, the "Grand Vizier" is equivalent to the prime minister, who can replace the Sultan as the marshal, and there is also the "Vizier" as a deputy under him.
The title of "Pasha" was originally intended to refer exclusively to high-ranking military officials, but it was later used for any high-ranking official and to the unofficial people requested by the court, and the title of Pasha was granted to Bellabeyi (ordinary ruler) and Wali (ordinary governor).
Bellebey: Official title, prefect of the Ottoman provincial administrative unit.
Sanjak Bey: Official title, prefect of the administrative unit at the county level in the Ottoman Empire.
Alebeyi: Official title, the prefect of the Ottoman Empire's village-level grass-roots units.
Farris's official position is Sanjak Beyi, responsible for the jurisdiction of the city of France, Australia and Hong Kong, he is in his forties, he was a tall and thin man before taking office, and now he has become a fat-headed pig's brain, and he is still panting when he walks, no way, there is too much money, and it is too good to eat!
Right now, in his yamen office, he is gathering his aides to discuss countermeasures and prepare for the high-level inspection team sent by Istanbul.
"It's not good!" Faris drank the best Chinese Dongting Lake Biluochun, which is a green tea that can reduce fire, but he still feels bored after drinking it!
"They are going to check religious things and say that there are blasphemous people; They also check the accounts of the port, saying that there are people who are corrupt and pervert the law. Farris sighed.
As for the fact that his three assistants were "Tash", that is, the meaning of the chieftain, they were called McNee, Ilfani and Asim, and he thought "blasphemy", which is certain, as long as trade is carried out, there will be people who believe in different gods, and they must be allowed to believe in freedom, otherwise it is better to simply shut down the trade and not interact with each other.
Not only to make money from outsiders, but also to be obedient to outsiders, hey, you can do it!
You don't see the trade dispute with the red hair, and people simply find another way to start maritime trade, and don't let you make money!
Graft?
Even if you don't want to be greedy, you have to pay tribute to those viziers and Pashas, and a large part of the money received is paid to the sanctimonious guys in the upper echelons.
“…… There is also a civil inspection, hehe, saying that someone is on the side of the Chinese and suppresses the brothers of the same religion, we don't care about them, and it ended up in Istanbul! Master Farris banged on the table excitedly, causing the things on the table to shake along with the fat on his face.
He said angrily: "Those merchants, shoddy, the Chinese want a shipload of good dates, they brought a shipload of inferior goods, they don't want to feed the livestock, force the Chinese to receive the goods, and show a scimitar to threaten the Chinese!" ”
Naturally, the Chinese did not comply, they went through the official procedure, and Faris ruled that the Chinese did not have to receive the goods, let alone give money, so the dates were all rotten and there was no market.
Those businessmen were not convinced, and they went to Istanbul to say that Faris's arm was turned outward instead of inward, and he oppressed his fellow brothers together with the Chinese!
This is a big crime, but Faris is also full of grievances, if he really helped those merchants, yes, the merchants have scimitars, but the Chinese have gunboats!
Their gunboats came to the door, blockaded the port, and interrupted trade, which the Chinese did!
For the Chinese leader in the distance, Faris is full of awe, he knows the reason, knows that the big people love the face the most, and if he hits him in the face, will he return it?
There was no money, and all the viziers and Pasha screamed.
The highest jumper is the Imperial Court!
They have no taxes to support their poor and luxurious life, and how can they live without Chinese goods?
When the time comes, when the Chinese gunboats are set up overseas, Faris can fully imagine what kind of crime he will have: open the border without permission, remove from his post and investigate!
In this matter, he felt that he had done a good job, for the sake of the word "reason", not all the words "reason", the key is that the Chinese have guns in their hands, so the Chinese have reason.
In other words, the Indians came to try it, and they didn't need to show their scimitars at all, and Master Faris 100% decided that the Indians had to pay according to the price!
It is clearly a political infighting in the Istanbul court, they are fighting with the gods, and the imps are suffering!
Someone pours tea for Faris, Faris knocks on the table with his fingers according to Chinese etiquette--- that is the etiquette of Cantonese people drinking tea, some people toast tea to themselves, regardless of high or low, they will use their fingers to knock on the table to show their return gift, there is no need to say "thank you" non-stop, save trouble, this custom spreads, and many places also learn from it.
He kept knocking nervously, and the more he knocked harder, he said angrily: "He's X, even eating has been charged with a crime, and he has to let all the Chinese restaurants in the city go out of business!" ”
"Isn't it!" The assistants screamed.
In the past, the local food of Harbor City was pasta, rice, beef and mutton as the staple food, and the most common pasta was baked bread, which was eaten with meat or cucumbers.
Chinese people travel all over the world, and Chinese food is immediately popular, and the French-Australian Port City is no exception.
Chinese cuisine, rich dishes, delicious taste, incomparable!
The problem is that almost any ingredient in Chinese food can be used to make dishes, and it is necessary to know that most of the people who go to the sea are Cantonese people, and the virtue of Cantonese people in cooking, hehe.
For example, the locals don't eat crabs. If they come across crabs hanging in the net, they all pick them off and throw them back into the sea.
Nowadays, the locals make fried crabs at the pier to sell, and the crabs are fried in oil until they are golden and crispy, which is delicious!
Chicken wings and chicken feet turned out to be garbage, and since the Chinese came, they learned that this can also be sold for money.
There is no frozen chicken feet, do you want to eat pickled pepper chicken feet?
Chicken wings are eaten directly, and the Chinese buy a large number of chicken feet, and how much they receive are processed locally into pickled pepper chicken feet, braised chicken feet, etc., which can withstand long-term transportation.
No matter how many chicken feet you make, they are all sold out.
So the price of crabs, chicken wings, and chicken feet doubled all at once--- it was not worth a few dollars, and it was still not expensive after doubling, and the locals were satisfied, after all, it was better to collect money than to throw garbage, and Chinese businessmen were also quite satisfied, don't look at the gadgets are worth it, their profits are high.
There are also Wang Ba, on both sides of the road of the port city of Fao, small rivers and ditches abound, no one pays attention to them, they are in piles of sunbathing on the shore, or swimming in groups on the surface of the water, stretching out their heads, their shells half floating on the water, very pleasant.
When the Chinese comes, the "eight" characters of those kings are written upside down, and Chinese they will be accompanied by red dates, wolfberries, etc......
Well, the local officials don't eat the Chinese food Chinese make, yes, they don't eat it......
The problem is that you can't eat it, and when someone wants to find ballast, anything becomes a reason, so the owners of Chinese restaurants are all hit in the knee......
However, you can't help but let the Chinese eat, it is necessary to follow the local customs, but people are used to eating mountain and sea delicacies, even ordinary home-cooked dishes can be made delicious, and it is difficult for them to come to France, Australia and Hong Kong City to eat only local food.
Besides, Chinese people can open restaurants and collect taxes, who will make more money?!
Local officials allowed Chinese to open Chinese restaurants, which has also become a crime!
Faris and the other officials are black enough, but I didn't expect those big people in Istanbul to be even darker than them, and they even care about eating!
He also has a backstage, otherwise he would not be an official in this fat position, the piece of paper in his hand is listing the "crimes" of the officials of France, Australia and Hong Kong City, and the backstage wants him to settle it quickly!
Farris waved his hand weakly and said, "Let the Chinese restaurant be closed temporarily!" ”
However, he and his assistants did not expect the reaction of the Chinese to be so fierce: if there is no food, they will go home for the New Year!
