Chapter 256: Pride

Sometimes it has to be said that the clergy really have the consciousness of dedicating themselves to God for the sake of preaching, and throughout history, the spread of Catholicism has always been accompanied by aggression.

But Japan is the only exception, these clergy are actually completely good deeds, helping the orphans and widows, helping the poor and the poor, and disseminating advanced cultural knowledge, and these clergy in order to adapt to Japan, they have also changed to vegetarianism, you must know that the Japanese vegetarian diet is completely the result of believing in Shintoism, it can be said that in order to preach, they are innumerable.

There is a reward for their sincere dedication, which won the trust of the common people at the bottom of Japan, but at the same time, it also made several generations of Tokugawa shogunate generals jealous, and Sbirano had no choice but to come to the extreme north to open the second missionary holy land.

In the end, Sbilano returned to the warship in Yuichiro Tanaka's boat, that is, the Portuguese did not leave him even a small boat, so it can be said that he was alone.

As soon as he got on the boat, Sbilano asked Yuichiro Tanaka with a kind smile, "Tanaka-kun, what religion does your Majesty the King believe?" ”

"Yamada-kun, you asked a very stupid question, our King is as wise as the sea, he himself is a god who came to earth, just like your holy son, how can he believe in other gods?"

"What? Could it be that your majesty the king is also a clergyman? Sbirano was taken aback, he thought that His Majesty the Far Eastern Kingdom had founded a religion by himself, and the Far Eastern Kingdom was a **** country, just like the *** religious country in Central Asia.

"It's not! No! Our esteemed majesty does not believe in any religion, otherwise our country would not not have stopped teaching. ”

"Oh! Luckily, you really scared me. Sbilano patted his chest and said.

"Why, do you want to persuade our Majesty to become Catholic? I advise you to die of heart! Oh! By the way, I forgot to tell you that you had better bring enough money with you, because you are a foreigner, and you will not earn a penny in our country, and you will have to go back to the West before your missionary work has even begun. ”

"Why is that? I know how to heal, I can heal people and save people to make ends meet, and that's how we clergy live anywhere in the world. ”

"I know that you can do this in Japan, but in our Far Eastern Kingdom, our law prohibits foreigners from earning money in our country, because you take the job of one of our nationals, which is not allowed."

"Oh! Oh my God! This is really bad news. Sbilano patted his forehead with a headache.

"Don't be afraid, you are actually an opportunity, our country welcomes skilled talents, if you are proficient in mathematics, physics, chemistry, astronomy and other science and engineering knowledge, you can apply to the government for a casual and decent job such as teaching, and you can even apply to become a citizen of the Far Eastern Kingdom."

Yuichiro Tanaka finally said what was in his heart, and the reason why he agreed to Sbilano's entry was to recruit him and use him for the country's use.

This is a temporary method for introducing foreign talents that Yang Wenli and government departments have no choice but to come up with, and the officers and men of the Navy Division are on the front line, and Yuichiro Tanaka certainly knows it in his heart.

In ancient times, the missionaries who came to the East to preach had profound knowledge, no exception, Spilano was also one of them, he was Italian, some people may not know, the world's first modern Italian university was the University of Bologna in Italy in 1087, which shows how strong the heritage of the old European state is.

Only a university that truly teaches astronomy, mathematics, physics, chemistry, painting, music, etc., and in 1087 that was hundreds of years earlier, Sbillano's knowledge as a leader of the clergy speaks for itself.

Yuichiro Tanaka's last sentence, "You can even apply to become a citizen of the Far Eastern Kingdom", made Sbilano laugh. Come on! You ignorant and backward barren land, only fools would be willing to apply to become citizens.

"Yamada-kun, you're very moved, aren't you! I'm sure you have a chance. Yuichiro Tanaka was completely misunderstood, and he thought that Sbilano was so happy to hear his introduction that he laughed out loud.

This beautiful misunderstanding went on like this, who knew that in the future, Sbirano would really apply to become a citizen of the Far Eastern Kingdom, which is not to be mentioned.

Yuichiro Tanaka took Sbillano back to the warship and talked to the captain, who was very happy, praised Yuichiro Tanaka greatly, and decided to send a clipper to send Sbillano to Sapporo.

Sapporo is particularly in need of people like Sbirano who have real talent, because there is a shortage of high-level teachers in Sapporo.

The clipper carried Yuichiro Tanaka and Sbirano along the coastline of Ezo Island all the way north, and the coastal trees that fell into Sbirano's eyes were not only lush trees or trees, full of green, and there was no second color, very monotonous, Sbirano couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "It's so primitive!" ”

Yuichiro Tanaka saw his thoughtful look, so he asked him proudly, "Yamada-kun, isn't it beautiful?" ”

"Oh! Yes, yes, it's beautiful, there's a kind of primordial beauty of nature. Sbilano came back to his senses and said casually.

Yuichiro Tanaka proudly explained, "Our King forbids the felling of trees along the coast, and we have transplanted many large trees as windbreaks, so that we can effectively reduce the damage caused by typhoons. ”

The two of them have their own pride, Yuichiro Tanaka feels very proud to be a citizen of the Far Eastern Kingdom, no matter what he introduces, he has a strong sense of pride, he feels that except for the Far Eastern Kingdom, the rest of the world is barbaric, backward and primitive.

But he didn't know that Sbilano, as a European, also had a sense of pride, in his eyes the rest of the place was primitive and backward, uncivilized at all, and he had the obligation to help God spread civilization to all parts of the world.

Yuichiro Tanaka's pride is beyond words, Sbirano can't see it anywhere, and because of this, he feels funny, he has been in Japan for decades, he has been to Ezo Island several times, he doesn't know what Yuichiro Tanaka has to be proud of such a primitive and backward island.

The speed of the clipper was very fast, and it did not take long for it to sail into a wide bay, the whole bay was shaped like a big crab, and the two crab claws were the anchorage of the Black Armor Army sailors.

They were in charge of inspecting the ships coming and going, and at this time two 400-gauge warships came over and asked to stop and inspect them.

Yuichiro Tanaka handed over his military ID card to them for inspection, it was his own person, and Yuichiro Tanaka introduced Sbilano's identity again, and was immediately released.

Because the clipper ship is a national ship and the berthing place is a civilian dock for the national ship, the berthing fee is exempted.

When the ship docked and his own sailors went ashore to tie the cables, Yuichiro Tanaka said to Sbilano behind him, "Yamada-kun, Sapporo has arrived." ”

He didn't know that there was no response for a long time, and he looked back and saw that Sbilano was opening his mouth wide and looking dumbfounded.

"How? It's spectacular! There is a wharf for docking 10,000-ton giant ships, and on that side, our small civilian wharf cannot be seen, and it is too far apart. Yuichiro Tanaka couldn't help but proudly introduce.
