Yunnan is very important to Zhao Zhen, it can be regarded as the rear of the Great Song Dynasty, the land in the belly.

Even agents from the Western Xia and Liao dynasties had a hard time penetrating there, and the coffee plantations of the Great Song Dynasty, as well as the glaze factories and steam engine test bases, were best protected there.

At the same time, Zhao Zhen still had one more thing that he did not tell Cai Boyu, the Ordnance Department of the Great Song Dynasty Firearms Bureau was also about to go to the city near Kunming, Yunnan. Artillery, a siege weapon, is of course the top priority, and the technology of the Great Song Dynasty ahead of the Western Xia and Liao dynasties is a powerful advantage, and Zhao Zhen must always maintain this strong advantage.

Cai Boyan saw that the official family was silent, and he didn't ask much, the official family must have important things to consider, and since the pro-government, the official's mind has become more and more heavy.

"It's already noon at the official house, are you eating in the cold house?"

Zhao Zhen came back to his senses: "Well, let's use it in your house, and I can also taste your chef Cai Ji's cooking skills." ”

Cai Boli smiled bitterly: "The official family said that it was funny, our Cai Ji's cooking skills are not all taught from the official family, others don't know that I can be clear, if it weren't for your attention back then, Cai Ji would not have become the behemoth he is today." ”

Zhao Zhen smiled: "I just told you a little bit of skills and operation direction, the rest is still the credit of you and Cai Jiren, now Cai Ji has been called the largest business in the Great Song Dynasty and even the entire Qiankun Yu, partly because of its status as an imperial businessman, and the other reason is that you operate well." Otherwise, no matter how good the channel I gave you, I wouldn't be what I am today. ”

Cai Boyu nodded and said: "What the official said is that now the name of my Great Song Dynasty merchant has resounded all over the world, as long as there is silk, there will be my Great Song Dynasty merchant, and the reputation is nothing to say, many businessmen know that they are not only representing the business, but also representing our Great Song Dynasty!" ”

It is a good thing to have this kind of awareness, the merchants consciously maintain their honor, and the reputation of the merchants of the entire Great Song Dynasty has become extremely good, but only the Western Xia and Liao Dynasty feel that the merchants of the Great Song Dynasty are not very friendly, because the goods sold to them are extremely expensive.

But the service attitude of the merchants of the Great Song Dynasty is still impeccable, and even some people think about the Liao people and engage in some small promotions, but the price of goods will never be lower than in the past, just sell five and get one free.

The current merchants of the Great Song Dynasty have a bit of the feeling of Venetian merchants, and the exquisite goods produced in the Great Song Dynasty have become commodities that no country in the world can easily refuse, not only the surrounding areas of the Great Song Dynasty, but also the Holy Roman Empire on the banks of the Danube.

When Zhao Zhen and Cai Boyu were chatting while eating, Cai Shi, the steward of the Horse Mansion, stepped forward respectfully and bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, Cheng Jingming in Honglu Temple came to see the driver." ”

Sancai was left in the palace by Zhao Zhen, this time he only brought the people of the personal guard division and came in a slight suit, and naturally Cai Shi took over the dispatch of Sancai, the only difference is that his body is different from the inner servant.

"Pass him in......"

At this time, the officials of Honglu Temple personally found Cai Boyu's mansion, there must be something important, Jing Ming is afraid that he has already searched for the two mansions, and the two mansions sent the servants into the forbidden to get the news of their own mansion in Cai Boyu's mansion.

Jing Ming was surprised all the way into the backyard of the Horse Mansion, and the beautiful appearance in front of him made him almost stunned, and when Cai Shi coughed kindly to remind him, he came back to his senses: "Qi Guan's family, Ou Luoba sent an envoy to ...... court."

Syllable......

"What?!"

The wine glass in Zhao Zhen's hand fell to the ground, and the so-called Europa was the name of the Holy Roman Empire!

What do you really want to do, the Holy Roman Empire actually sent an envoy here, which had a considerable impact on Zhao Zhen, you must know that there is no Suez Canal at this time, the Mediterranean Sea is completely a closed inland sea, could it be that the envoy was smuggled from the Abbasid Dynasty to the Great Song Dynasty?

Arabs who believed in Islam and Europeans who believed in Christianity were natural rivals, and it was difficult for the emissaries of the Holy Roman Empire to reach the Great Song unless they were smuggled out, because the roads leading to the Great Song were almost all occupied by Arabs.

The so-called Europa is the full name of later Europe.

At this time, a group of people gathered outside the Horse Mansion, and they all pointed at the people standing on the steps at the door, to be honest, the Europa people still rarely appeared in the Great Song Dynasty, so the people were very curious about this blonde man.

Although Vera is also blonde and blue-eyed, she is not common among the people in the deep palace, and everyone regards this envoy from Europa as a Western landscape.

Austin stood at the door of the Horse Mansion and kept arranging his robes and cloaks, as if to remind everyone of his noble status, but unfortunately the silk robes on his body were still much worse than those worn by the people of the Great Song Dynasty......

Austen was accustomed to it, and since he came to the Great Song Dynasty, he was surprised to find that the people of the Great Song Dynasty were innumerable in silk, and even a merchant who opened a restaurant could wear fine silk, which was impossible in the Roman Empire, unless he was a great merchant who often traveled to and from the Abbasid dynasty.

The slightly chubby middle-aged man who had just appeared at the palace-like gate in front of him, Austin should be a big butler or something from the outfit on his body, and sure enough, he opened his mouth and said to himself: "His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty has announced that the envoy of Europa is here!" ”

The loud voice pierced Austin's eardrums, was it necessary to shout so close to him? But with the sound of the crowd behind him, Austin came to his senses, this is announcing the emperor's oracle to everyone!

Finally tidying up the noble robes on his body, Austin slowly entered the Pony Mansion, and the crowd behind him sighed in disappointment, they were afraid that they would not be able to see the good show below, but some people did not plan to leave, waiting to ask Cai Shi about the interesting story of the Europa envoy later.

After Austin walked into the Pony Mansion, he found that it was not only as magnificent as the outside, but also exquisite and elegant inside, revealing the oriental charm everywhere, elegant like a masterpiece of God!

The picturesque scene made him deeply immersed in it, the beautiful peony flowers are bright red like fire, the elegant daisies exude a fragrance, the Oriental people's pursuit of beauty is really admirable, and they are not lacking in wisdom, and the winding columns allow people to browse new scenery everywhere they go.

Heavenly Father is above, is it possible that a small relative's family in the Great Song Empire is so luxurious? Before he came, Jingming of Honglu Temple said that this was the home of the emperor's sister-in-law, but in Austin's opinion, the beauty here is comparable to the official residence of the seven electors of the Holy Roman Empire! Austin was stunned by the view in the back garden after passing through the Moon Gate, and was a little speechless for a while.

It is no wonder that China's garden art is ahead of the world, and the Chinese people's understanding of beauty and elegance is also beyond any country in the world. After all, at this time, Europe was still immersed in barbarism and ignorance, there may be many ancient civilizations, but most of them have withered, and the flame of civilization is only burning most fiercely in China!
