Chapter 542: Old John's Teahouse

The Java archipelago, with 18,108 islands, is a well-deserved land of 10,000 islands, and after being occupied by the Chinese Dynasty, it has become a paradise for all merchants.

The local natives were sold to Japan and Korea, and there was a lot of darkness in the process, and the local government turned a blind eye.

In the cold land of the far north, the Japanese soldiers and Korean soldiers expanded the territory of the Chinese Dynasty and fought with the Rakshasa ghosts.

Japan's borders are basically all open, and there is no difference between Chinese doing business in Japan and doing business at home, and the slave trade was personally promised by the emperor to the Japanese lord, and even if the officials are not used to it, it is difficult for them to interfere.

Moreover, these natives were instigated at the beginning, and almost all of them went out to the streets to kill people, and there were few people with good intentions at all. Therefore, the local Chinese will not have any good feelings towards their neighbors, after all, the Dutch brainwashed their natives in order to create Sino-Yi antagonism.

The concerts of local officials have repeatedly indicated that this place is vast and sparsely populated, and Hou Xuanyan has also attracted great attention.

A hundred years later, a group of British ran to the Americas and established a white state, which eventually replaced the world hegemony of the Empire on which the sun never sets. Hou Xuanyan didn't want this kind of thing to happen in the Hua Dynasty, and he had to strengthen the ties between the Nanyang countries and the mainland. Fortunately, Nanyang and the Hua Dynasty are not far apart, and shipping will become more and more developed in the future, and it is very possible to connect with each other.

The news of the capture of the Java Islands by the Chinese Dynasty reached the continent and caused a national revelry among the British, and now the Anglo-Dutch war was at a stalemate, and the Dutch still had the upper hand.

The East India Company on the island of Java was a vital part of the Dutch financial map, which they held until the end of World War II in 1945.

Now the Dutch lost the East Indies, that is, the entire Far East. Of course, the other European countries have also lost all their eastern colonies, and there is not even a port for them to dock in the entire sea.

If you want to do business with East Asian countries, you can simply pay tariffs.

With more and more tax revenues and a piled up treasury, Dahua is richer today than at any time in history.

The rich emperor Hou Xuanyan is reviewing the chapter in Nuanfang Pavilion.

What is the meaning of daily management?

The daily life of Hou Xuan's performance now is called a thousand opportunities.

From the nine days to the moon and the five seas to catch turtles, the current Hou Xuanyan is catching fur seals from the Arctic Ocean and planting rubber on the South Ocean Island, all of which are his worries.

In such a large land, I don't know how many things happen every day, and the local officials feel that their affairs are so big that they want to inform the Son of Heaven. But the Son of Heaven is also a human being, and his head is so big, how many things can he consider

Hou Xuanyan stretched his waist, took a deep breath and exhaled a turbid breath, raised his head and asked, "What time is it?" ”

Xiao Lizi stood aside with his hands down, and said softly: "Back to Your Majesty, it's time for lunch." ”

Hou Xuanyan stood up, moved his hands and feet, and looked at the somewhat gloomy sky outside the Nuanfang Pavilion, feeling sad in his heart.

I used to have no constant in my daily life, no hard work, and lived in the deep palace like a teddy every day, but now I think about it, it's really beautiful. It's like now, tired like his grandson, this emperor has no taste

Hou Xuanyan also knew that this was all temporary, as long as these newly opened territories were on the right track, he could let himself go again. But when he thought of those trivial things, he still had a big head, and he wanted to open up a new dynasty, which was really not something that ordinary people could do.

The chef in the palace cooks, not seeking merit but seeking no fault, although the color and flavor are complete, but every day is a taste, and he does not dare to change and innovate at all, what if the emperor is unhappy.

Hou Xuanyan looked at the simple four dishes and one soup, skimmed his chopsticks and said, "Take it to Wenyuan Pavilion and give it to the scholars and officials in the pavilion to eat, let's go out for a walk." ”

The emperor's departure from the palace was originally an unconscionable matter, but the eunuchs in the palace thanked Hou Xuanyan for his kindness and allowed them to return to their hometowns in turn.

When a soldier dies for a confidant, the king of a country will think about them, and a little thing will move these people to a mess. This is the advantage of the superior, many times a person with a higher status than you, can still be gentle and generous to people, and will be sincerely respected and respected by everyone. The beggar on the side of the road smiles at you every day and respects you, but you think he wants you to give you some money

Hou Xuanyan does whatever he wants in the palace, and he can often walk around Jinling Street, and all the palace people are willing to cover for him.

In Jinling City, it is as prosperous as ever, with streets and alleys, people coming and going, shops and vendors, shouting and hustle, and it is very lively. There are often a few strange-looking people on the streets, and the people of Jinling are no longer surprised.

As the capital of Dahua, this place has become the center of the world, and it is common to see foreigners singing Hanfu and Confucian costumes, strolling around the streets, buying and selling goods.

During this period, the demand for Asian goods in Europe was a bottomless pit. This also caused European businessmen to desperately want to come to China, after all, this is the place with the most complete goods, and there are even Western-style restaurants on both sides of the road to entertain these foreigners who are far away from home.

If you walk in and take a look, you can't admire the business vision of the Chinese, most of these restaurants and hotels are run by Chinese, and they hire foreigners to make food.

Hou Xuanyan has a bone fan behind his back, walking with a figure-eight step with the wind, and two white-faced guys behind him, looking like a son-in-law.

A milky white pomegranate skirt, a waist embroidered with the same color, a milky white tulle on her chest, and a round and soft waist are soliciting customers at the door.

Hou Xuanyan was a little dazed, and when he looked up at the name of the store, he almost laughed, and the script was upright in block letters: Old John's Refreshment House

The store is full of people, not only foreigners, but also many Han Chinese, most of whom come to try it.

Xiao Lizi saw His Majesty looking into the hall, and hurriedly said, "Son, do you want to eat here?" ”

"Go in and take a look."

After Hou Xuanyan finished speaking, he walked inside, found an empty seat and sat down, and immediately a courteous foreign girl stepped forward and asked in an authentic Fengyang accent: "Guest officer, what to eat?" ”

This chick highlights one word, "big"!

The blonde hair is soft, and the face is covered with a light veil, revealing only a pair of dark blue eyes, and the yao-nose cherry lips under the tulle are faintly more beautiful.

This wine lady is wearing a shirt with narrow sleeves, covered with plain white jade armor, and under it is a pair of light cyan thin trousers, which sets off the plump and soft figure of the moving figure, and the slender and full thigh curve under the thin trousers is extremely exaggerated.

Hou Xuanyan took a deep breath, still one word, Sao.

Especially under the plump crisp breasts, slender waist and full moon buttocks, no wonder this store is doing so well

As soon as Hou Xuanyan wanted to order, he heard a fierce noise, and a group of people gathered in a corner of the restaurant and quarreled fiercely.

Ding Ling's clanging sound instantly attracted Hou Xuanyan's attention, leaving the foreign girl and standing up and saying, "What's the excitement, go and take a look." ”

Xiao Lizi and Qin He looked at each other and smiled bitterly, after so many years, Your Majesty's habit of loving to watch lively things seems to be impossible to change
