Zheng Jue slipped out of the gambling table with the waiter and walked on the streets of Macau, this street is really a street, except for a few trees standing alone on both sides, there are only a few scattered blacksmith shops and grocery stores open on both sides, although there are a few red-haired Europeans on the street, but it is not uncommon to see too much, sailors only, Zheng Jue is just curious why Europeans should be yellow hair and white hair, this Portugal, Spain, and Dutch are all red-haired, Zheng Jue only knew that the hair of mammals did not seem to be red except for Europeans, and Zheng Jue didn't know whether the hair of the Dutch was born or dyed, so it didn't seem polite to ask them directly......

Zheng Jue found a restaurant to eat, ordered the dish and tasted the seafood from hundreds of years ago, the taste is average, but the service ink this goods and trash can found the strange eyes of the people around Chinese in ancient times did not like to eat seafood, and Wuzhou is inland, of course, I have not eaten seafood, Zheng Jue is trying to remove the eyes of the people around him from himself, one thing attracts everyone's eyes again, of course, including Zheng Jue's eyes, excluding the eyes of the waiter, the waiter's eyes have been staring at the table since the dish was served, Even Zheng Jue didn't care, and he still watched the excitement

It turned out that a missionary came in, asked the boss to give him some food on credit first, and waited for the church to come and settle the bill, he was too tired to come back from Jiangmen, wanted to eat, the boss is a Chinese, may be more disgusted with Catholicism, or because this missionary does not dress like there will be a church to settle the bill, but like a foreign devil who has just returned from the inland to ask for food

"Boss, I'm really a priest from St. Anthony's Church, I'm a missionary in the interior of your home country, and I've been discriminated against, but I'm going to report to the church later, I want to eat now, someone will definitely come to settle the bill"

"If no one comes to settle the bill, who will I go to, our store is a small business, and there is no credit" The boss waved a feather duster, as if the missionary did not exist at all

"There will really be someone to settle the bill, I swear in the name of God" This foreign devil also seems to be hungry enough, God has come out, and the Chinese do not know who God is

The boss was about to say something, when a silver ingot slapped in front of his eyes, "Mr. Priest, how about we go over there and talk?" Zheng Jue knew that ordinary foreign devils would definitely not speak Chinese, and only priests who had studied Chinese at St. Anthony would dare to go inland to preach, and the fact that this goods could come back alive showed that he still had some skills

"Kind sir, God will bless you" Zheng Jue looked at the magic stick in front of him and drew a cross from his chest, feeling bored for a while, but this game still needs to be played

"Dear Mr. Priest, my hometown needs a few Franky people with special skills, such as making artillery and musket machinery, as well as medical and architectural and physical talents, in exchange, how about I take you to Daming to preach?"

"Kind sir, really?" As soon as the priest heard Zheng Jue say that he could go to Daming to preach, it was like a dog seeing a bone, and the Catholic mission in China has been struggling since Matteo Ricci's death and Xu Guangqi's retirement, and this time he went out to preach and learned terrible news, in the north of Daming, an empire similar to Ottoman Turkey was rising, and the main reason for his return was to report this problem to the church

"Mr. Priest, please believe me, this is the approval of the Governor of Liangguang and my waist card, if you know the talents I mentioned before, I sincerely invite you to preach in my guard" Zheng Jue took out a few approval slips and his own waist card from Zhu Zhijian in advance and continued to fool the stick

"Mr. General, I think our church has the people you want, would you like to go back to church with me later, just after I have eaten?" Obviously, the god stick is still more concerned about his stomach, God is only in second place, Zheng Jue is really fortunate to see the game next, two foodies, no, two trash cans are scrambling to pour the dishes that have just come up into their stomachs, and all the eyes of the audience are attracted by these two gluttonous monsters......

After eating, the three of them walked out of the restaurant under the gaze of the restaurant people, Zheng Jue followed behind the two, trying to pretend not to know the two of them, but Shi Mo's constant reminders broke Zheng Jue's illusions

Zheng Jue walked into St. Anthony's Church with this god, the bishop of the Chinese diocese had just returned to Europe, and there were only a few missionaries here, but they said that as long as they could come to China to preach, the talents in those fields that Zheng Jue said were actually on the way back to Macao

Zheng Jue didn't expect that the missionary in front of him who ate and served with ink was the famous Luo James, and he was so efficient in the church, of course, the main reason was that the church had close contacts with the officials of the Ming Dynasty in the past few years, when Xu Guangqi was still in the cabinet, the missionary work of the Catholic Church reached its climax, although Xu Guangqi retired without an official appointment, in fact, the missionary activities are still relatively frequent, but in recent years, almost all the officials of the Ming Dynasty have changed to a bitter gourd face, And the people are scattered, who has time to listen to how miserable you God is, and I am miserable?! In recent months, officials up and down in the Ming Dynasty can't wait to wear linen and filial piety every day, look at the north and swear revenge for their father

Luo Yaco told Zheng Jue that there were a few craftsmen who were proficient in precision machinery and some Western literary classics translated by Xu Guangqi before, in exchange, hoping that Zheng Jue could allow them to build a church in Wuzhou, and Zheng Jue agreed with a wave of his hand

Zheng Jue came to Macao this time in vain, when he left, the governor of Macao also sent a flintlock pistol to Zheng Jue, which is a more advanced handcuff, and also happened to meet Zheng Zhilong's caravan and escort formation from Nanyang in the port, Zheng Jue looked at the huge fleet in front of him, and couldn't help but sigh that Fujian's shipbuilding technology is advanced, if there is no Qing Dynasty, maybe China will not be forgotten by the industrial revolution, and there may not be that hundred years of humiliation, at least the tens of millions of compatriots who died tragically in the war can be saved

Zheng Zhilong's caravan brought back some things that made Zheng Jue's eyes shine in Nanyang - peppers, potatoes, corn, etc., Zheng Jue saw that these crew members did not attach much importance to these things, but Zheng Jue, as a senior foodie, knew that with these things, the Chinese kitchen was really formed, and in addition to the ingredients, Zheng Jue also found some more important seeds - rubber, without rubber there would be no steam engine in the first industrial revolution If the steam engine is the heart of the first industrial revolution, and rubber is the heart muscle, The horsepower of the sealed vapor without rubber will forever hover under ten horses

Zheng Jue saw that these crew members didn't care about these seeds, so they spent money to buy some of them, and the people of the Zheng family also knew the relationship between Zheng Jue and Zheng Zhilong, and they were willing to have a good relationship with this "son-in-law".
