A typical oriental-style conference room: entering the room, you will be greeted by a red curtain, a spotless floor, a large wooden table made of wolfberry wood in the middle of the red column, a set of quaint tea sets in the middle of the table, a faint fragrance of tea slowly comes out, there is a Taishi chair at the top of the table, and there is also a one on the left side of the table, but the degree of delicacy is not as good as the one on the top, and then there are official hat chairs on both sides, which looks dignified and elegant. On the wall behind the conference table is a huge landscape painting, on which a plaque is hung: "The table is ending", and on both sides are two poems, namely: An official comes here for four meridians, worthy of the sky and the people! There are several pots of houseplants in the four corners of the room, and there are wooden bookcases on both sides of the room. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Not bad! This is a temporary change! Wrinkled Governor! I'm tired! Wang Zaijin said with a smile.

"Whatever Governor Wang said, it's all for the court! What's worth mentioning if you change the study room of Xiaguan! Zou Weilian said with a smile.

Wang Zaijin smiled and asked the people around him: "Have all those red-haired fans arrived?" ”

"Back to the Governor! They've all arrived! Waiting outside! The guard said.

"That's fine! Let them in! Wang Zaijin commanded, and then turned to Zou Weilian and said, "Let's go in first!" ”

Everyone began to enter the conference room, a group of officials of the Ming Dynasty sat down one by one after saluting each other, Wang Zaijin naturally sat on the top, Zou Weilian sat on the lower left, and then a group of accompanying officials sat under Zou Weilian, everyone was in high spirits, talking about the battle in a whisper, and the servants were respectfully serving tea on the side, and soon, Carpenter took Putmans and Langbi Ricgo into the conference room, only to see Carpentere at the front of the line, Putmans and Langbi Ricgo followed in turn, There were also some relevant personnel of the Dutch East India Company who accompanied them, and after they saw the officials of the Ming Dynasty, they performed a standard Western etiquette under the leadership of Carpenter, Wang Zaijin nodded, raised his hand and said with a smile: "Sit down!" ”

Although Carpentertier didn't know the language of the Ming Dynasty very well, he still understood the simple language, and then everyone sat down according to the courtesy, and after watching everyone sit down, Wang Zaijin said with a smile: "Since everyone is here, let's start!" First of all, we welcome you to my Daming! The officials of the Ming Dynasty nodded politely to the Dutch side, and then the translator translated Wang Zaijin's words to Carpenterte and others, and when Carpentere and others heard it, their expressions were really different, especially Putmans and Langbi, who were even more bitter in their hearts: "Where the hell did I come by myself, I was captured by you!" And Carpentere scolded in his heart: "Lao Tzu was forced by you to come!" The devil is willing to come! But the bitterness in the heart could not be said, so everyone politely replied with a kind smile.

The officials of the Ming Dynasty were all old foxes in the officialdom, and they naturally saw the subtle expressions of the Dutch just now, but they naturally chose to ignore them, even if you feel uncomfortable, so what's the use? Wang Zaijin continued to smile and said: "In the words of our Da Ming, the use of courtesy, peace is precious, war is not beneficial to our two countries, so I invite you all here today, we all sit down and have a good talk, for our Da Ming, but also for you Holland, I hope that today we can get a result that we are both satisfied with!" ”

"Harmony is precious?! NND！ None of you said a word to Lao Tzu, and the warship drove directly to arrest Lao Tzu! And also! Lang Bi scolded in his heart, and couldn't help but look at his injured leg.

"Governor Wang is right! I thought so too! Carpentere said with a smile, and immediately responded after hearing the translation.

"In that case, let's get started! I believe that our previous armistice Governor Carpentil has also seen it! If there are no objections, we can sign now! Wang Zaijin said with a smile.

After listening to the translator's words, Carpentil almost didn't have a blood spurt?! No objection? If there is no objection, can Lao Tzu sit here and talk to you? Lao Tzu is full of food?! When Carton first arrived, he was arranged to meet with Putmans and Lang Bi Ricgo after a brief reception by some officials of the Ming Dynasty, and then Putmans handed over the armistice agreement of the Ming army to Carpenter, and Carpentere was furious on the spot after reading it, but quickly controlled his emotions, and finally just said a word, talk! Because he also understood the purpose of this visit, they had no room for resistance, and could only try their best to fight for favorable conditions for the Netherlands.

Wang Zaijin looked at Zou Weilian, Zou Weilian nodded, and said gently: "I don't know which one of them you have objections to?" Say it, let's hear it! ”

After listening to this, Carpenterte said: "Let's just say this first article, 1 The Netherlands apologizes to the Ming State and compensates all the losses of the Ming army in this battle, including all the losses of the Ming army caused by the Dutch sneak attack before, and also needs to pay an additional war indemnity of five million taels of silver and 500,000 taels of gold to the Ming Kingdom; It's okay to apologize and compensate for the losses of the war, but I don't think it's appropriate to pay extra indemnities, and besides, we don't have so much silver and gold! ”

"Oh! What are you talking about? This is non-negotiable, our court has already decided! Can't change it! Zou Weilian said with a smile.

After hearing this, Carpenter felt that another stream of blood rushed up his throat, and he was extremely uncomfortable, and after forcibly controlling his emotions, he said: "That one can be suspended, and this second one, let us hand over all the territories we occupy to Da Ming to manage, this can't work!" Even if I agree, our council will not agree! ”

Wang Zaijin sat on the top and couldn't help frowning after listening, he had gotten information from Zhongxingwei and Drunken Red Leaves before, the governor of the Dutch East India Company had this right, it seems that this Carpentil is not honest, Zou Weilian looked at Wang Zaijin, after the two looked at each other, Wang Zaijin nodded, Zou Weilian understood, and said: "In this case, I, as a state of etiquette, sincerely intersect with your country, then we will take a step back, except for this barbarian land in eastern India, The rest of the Western region is up to us! As he spoke, he took out the map and circled it.

When Carpenter saw that he was going to sign this and that the headquarters of his Dutch East India Company had to be moved, he quickly shook his head and said, "No!" ”

"This is already our biggest concession!" Wang Zaijin said at this time.

"We have so much financial stake here! Such! This half is still ours, and the other half is for Daming! "Circled the map as he spoke! Carpentere circled the eastern and western parts of Indonesia, including Batavia, of course, he knew that the Ming Kingdom was mainly the area around Malacca, so he did not circle it, even if he was very reluctant, but it was no way, and then Carpentere looked at Wang Zaijin, Wang Zaijin frowned, showing an embarrassed expression, seeing Wang Zaijin's expression, Zou Weilian smiled and said: "Governor Carpenter!" This...... ”

"Wait!" Carpenter directly interrupted Zou Weilian's words, he knew that if Zou Weilian had to say it, then there would be no chance to talk about it, so he said: "In this south, I also found a new piece of land, very large, I haven't measured the specifics, but it is indeed very large, I believe it is bigger than the whole of this!" As he spoke, he circled the current Southeast Asia region on the map, and then said: "I will give him this place to Daming!" I provide route maps! This is my private discovery! ”

"Oh?!" Wang Zaijin frowned, and then asked, "What kind of place is it?" ”

"This picture was given to me by a friend of mine in Portugal! I've sent someone to find out! Belong to a blank space! It's still good to develop! Carpenterte said.

"In that case! Why don't you go to development? And why did your friend send you this picture? Wang Zaijin asked.

"According to your Ming Guo's words, we are powerless! Not as bright as you! I believe that you have the strength to do so! Governor Wang! What do you think? Carpentier asked.

Wang Zaijin leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes to think, and after a quarter of an hour, he slowly opened his eyes and pretended to be embarrassed: "Then so be it!" "Carpentere breathed a sigh of relief, in any case, the most important thing is to save half of it, although the loss of Malacca, but at least it is better than the loss of all.

"This last one! It's not impossible to send a copy of all our current route maps to Da Ming, but we hope that Ming Guo can allow us to do business freely! At the same time, we can also act as an agent for your Ming goods, just like Portugal! And we also hope to buy some firearms from your country, such as your advanced warships, artillery, muskets! I hope your country can agree! Carpenterte said.

"Don't forget where you are!" Some Ming officials are not happy at this time, you are still qualified to put forward conditions for the defeated country, and the concession just now is already very good.

Zou Weilian glanced at the official, and then looked at Wang Zaijin, Wang Zaijin thought for a while and said: "Our purpose this time is a truce between the two countries, of course, we can repair the relationship between our two countries is also what our court wants to see, as for the conditions you proposed, so let's do it, if you agree to the first article, then I can agree to some of the conditions you just proposed, I can call the shots, let you do trade, but when we come, we must abide by the laws of my Ming, and we must not come nonsense, if you commit a crime, you will be dealt with according to the laws of my Ming, As for the warships and firearms you mentioned, this depends on the attitude of the imperial court, and at the same time, it also depends on your performance, and it is only after these three years of friendly cooperation between the Portuguese and us that the imperial court is willing to sell them a little firearms! ”

Carpenter's brows furrowed after hearing this, and then he said, "Can we go to all the cities of the Great Ming Kingdom?" ”

"As long as it's legal! After the imperial court issues the relevant documents to you, you can trade freely! The premise is to follow the laws of my Ming Dynasty! Wang Zaijin said with a smile.

"But those firearms 。。。。。。。" Carpenterte still did not give up.

"I don't have this permission! However, as long as the two countries have friendly exchanges, it is not hopeless! Wang Zaijin said with a smile.

"I take the liberty of asking! Is your fleet now working against the Spaniards in Taiwan? Carpentier asked.

"No comment!" Wang Zaijin said with a smile.

"That's it! We hope that Daming can help us fight against the power of Spain, and as for the benefits, we can divide them equally, as long as we agree, then we will agree to the first one! Carpenter gritted his teeth.

Everyone looked at Wang Zaijin, because they didn't understand where this Spain was, and what it had to do with Daming, so they were naturally confused, Wang Zaijin looked at Carpenter, and then thought about it: "Yes!" ”

"Deal!" Carpentil breathed a sigh of relief.

Then the two sides happily concluded a treaty, the treaty was divided into two, both Ming and Dutch languages, each of them had one, Wang Zaijin and Carpentier both signed their own Ming on it, and stamped their respective seals, the battle between Ming and Dutch finally ended, the two countries gradually moved from the dispute to cooperation, after that, this treaty that affected the development of the Ming and Dutch countries was called the Treaty of Moon and Hong Kong by historians of the two countries.
