Emperor Ming came to Goa, it was really Emperor Ming who came to Goa, once the news spread, the whole Goa was boiling, Goa is different from Manila, there can be an expeditionary corps of the Ming Empire here, many Ming merchants have chosen to develop in Goa, so, the streets and alleys of Goa are full of Ming merchants' shops, and the civilians of Goa have begun to slowly become familiar with the situation of the Ming Dynasty, His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Empire is the owner of the entire Ming Empire, and it is also the god in the accounts of countless Ming merchants, such a big figure came to Goa, can it not cause a sensation!

Zhu Cijiong naturally didn't know that his arrival caused a sensation, and after putting the score in the port, he didn't lead Kong Dede around like he did in Manila, because Kong Dede is different from Ke Kuian, Ke Kuian is just an ordinary allied governor, and he has little to do with Da Ming, but this Kong Dede is a real ally of Da Ming.

Together with Svera, he fought alongside the First Regiment of the Ming Expeditionary Force and opened up the Mysore colony;

He once provided countless iron ores for the Ming Dynasty, so that the development of the Ming Dynasty's military industry did not stagnate due to lack of materials;

He unconditionally opened the port of Goa, allowing Ming merchants to do business at will in Goa, and even in colonies such as Mysore;

He also unconditionally provided military grain and grass for the Ming Expeditionary Legion, saving a lot of food and transportation costs for the Ming Dynasty, of course, the first legion of the Ming Expeditionary Army can also be said to be unconditionally stationed in Mysore for him, and the two sides are mutually beneficial, so that they are called real allies.

Zhu Cijiong was naturally quite polite to such an ally, and he even took the time to have a secret conversation with Kong Dede in the study of the Governor's Mansion for a long time, and there were only three people involved in the secret conversation, except for him and Kong Dede, there was only Shi Weila, but Shi Weila was a full-time translator.

Although Comde does not have Schwila's talent for business, but he has a unique view of the world colonial situation, he even reminded Zhu Cijiong to beware of Britain and France, the two traditional powers, now Spain and the Holy Roman Empire have entered the twilight, maritime hegemony will be seized by other powers, don't look at the current seems to be the most ferocious momentum is the Netherlands, but the local population problem will inevitably drag down the Netherlands, it will not go far, and in the end it must be one of Britain and France to compete for maritime supremacy with the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Cijiong was simply impressed by Kong Dede, he knew the development trend of the later powers, so he could conclude that the strongest opponent must be Britain, but he didn't expect that someone in this era could predict it, Zhu Cijiong couldn't help but talk to Kong Dede more and more speculatively, and even delayed a lot of travel later.

However, he arranged those trips mainly to open a royal branch and open an academy in Goa, but he didn't expect that once these questions were raised, Kong Dede agreed to be even more cheerful than Ke Kuian, this product originally intended to attach himself to the Ming Dynasty, and naturally would not refuse the request made by His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Empire.

This saved Zhu Cijiong a lot of time, and then he encouraged the officers and soldiers of the First Legion of the Expeditionary Force according to the original itinerary, sent down the various rewards scheduled, and cordially met with a group of representatives of Ming merchants, and finally rewarded Kong Dede with two cars of Chongzheng Tongbao, and then continued to embark on the trip.

The next thing is to bypass the Cape of Good Hope and then go straight to the European continent along the Gold Coast, Zhu Cijiong did not arrange any places to visit on this journey, he did not have any thoughts about the continent in the middle, because this place is too close to the powers, too far from the Ming Dynasty, and it is a typical thankless task to compete with the powers here, and it is better to rob North America with this effort!

This journey is about 20,000 miles, it takes about 20 days, Zhu Cijiong, who feels a little bored, really learned Spanish with Princess Anna, and Emperor Ming learned foreign languages, which seems to be a bit like a joke, but the current European royal family takes mastering multiple languages as a compulsory course, because this is a necessary quality for those in power, you must know that the royal families of European countries are related by blood, and maybe one day a prince or a duke or even a princess will get the right to inherit the throne of a certain country, and you will be the emperor or king, and as a result, you don't know how to speak the words of that country, isn't it funny!

Zhu Cijiong did not learn a foreign language to inherit the throne of any country, he was purely for the needs of development, because the Ming Empire has entered the ranks of the great powers, and the exchanges with the great powers must become more and more frequent.

His lack of interest in the middle continent does not mean that everyone is not interested in the middle continent, Schwila is particularly interested in the middle continent, at first he was just looking for Zheng Zhilong and other entourages to nag, after passing through the Cape of Good Hope, he couldn't help but be excited, and ran to Zhu Cijiong to nag!

Zhu Cijiong actually refused at first, but after inadvertently chatting with Princess Anna, he agreed again, but he made a request: It's okay to listen to your nagging, but you must get every sentence twice, once in Chinese and once in Spanish!

It is actually very dangerous to always follow Princess Anna to learn Spanish, the reason is that everyone understands, after a few days of study, Zhu Cijiong feels a little unbearable, and now there is a free learning machine sent to the door, he naturally wants to let this learning machine help him learn Western well.

Schwila is not very opposed to this way of speaking, as long as the emperor is willing to listen to his nagging, he is mainly nagging about the Gold Coast, the Gold Coast can be said to carry the dream of most Portuguese people for the colony, there are gold mines everywhere, golden sands can be seen everywhere, Portugal has seized countless wealth here, they have also built Elmina, Axim, Accra and other colonial fortresses here, but now this dream is in danger of being shattered at any time, because in the tenth year of Chongzheng, that is, last year, The first colonial fort they built on the Gold Coast was taken by the Dutch!

The Dutch continued to fight other fortresses, and had the potential to drive Portugal out of the Gold Coast in one fell swoop, to which Schvera expressed great indignation, and the Dutch were indeed too arrogant.

Hearing this, Zhu Cijiong understood that he wanted to beg him to take Ermina back, and then drive the Dutch out of the Gold Coast.

It is very easy for Zhu Cijiong to do this, 300,000 troops, more than 400 warships, and all the armies of the entire Netherlands may not have been able to do it together, not to mention that it is just a small colonial stronghold, and it is easy for him to take it over, but he still regrets refusing, because the Gold Coast has almost nothing to do with Daming, and it is really a bit unreasonable to tear up the contract and start a war with the Netherlands for this reason.

Of course, there is a more important reason, that is, he is here to persuade people to fight this time, not to participate in the brawl, and it is strange not to be involved in the European war when he fights with people so close to the European continent!
