"He returned to Brother Hong, which is a little bit of his brother's heart, and on this day of gathering with Brother Hong, it will open his eyes and ears for his brother, and I hope that Brother Hong will not shirk! If it spreads, the brotherhood will become the laughing stock of Zhenzhou, others are sending prostitutes and singers, but I am sending Daqin slaves, this and this...... Not quite like words! Luo Youde pointed to the white slave, stood up, put his head on the side of the table, and whispered to Hong Tao not to refuse, as if he was begging Hong Tao to accept it quickly.

"Then I won't be polite, I won't ask the price, please Brother Luo give me an address in Zhenzhou, every three or five days, I will send someone to send some seafood to Brother Luo, to ensure that they are all rare things, and I will not take out the mundane things." Hong Tao doesn't know much about the human relations of the Song Dynasty, but he understands the future generations, since Luo Youde has this heart, it means that he wants to make friends with himself. No matter what he wants, Hong Tao doesn't intend to owe this favor, and he has to have an expression if he still has it, and he has mutual interests, and it will be easier to talk when they meet in the future. It is an expression of goodwill between adults and adults, especially between businessmen and merchants.

"Hahaha, then there is Brother Lao Hong, just hand it over to the shopkeeper here, this restaurant is also the property of my brother's family, I originally wanted to invite Brother Hong to my house for a few days, it seems that Brother Hong should not have this mind, right?" Luo Youde didn't refuse Hong Tao's kindness, and then pointed to the white slave standing stupidly next to him.

"Indeed, I also hope to talk to Brother Luo more, I am still very new to Da Song, but I still have a few elders who sell their catch in the port, and now that I have met him again, I will come back to disturb Brother Luo in a few days." Hong Tao admires Luo Youde's easy-going attitude, since he understands, then there is no need for him to talk nonsense, tell the truth.

"I will explain to the shopkeeper here, if Brother Hong comes here, I must let him tell him as a brother, don't say goodbye!" Luo Youde stood up, arched his hand at Hongtao, and went straight downstairs. Hong Tao sent Luo Youde to the staircase, only to find that Ah Cai was standing in front of the two mule carts waiting, Hong Tao didn't know how to say goodbye to this era, so he could only arch his hand at Luo Youde and Ah Cai, and watched them get into the mule cart before turning back and going upstairs.

"Carl, I'll call you that! Are you German? The white slave was still standing still, Hong Tao walked to the window, pushed it open, and lay on the windowsill, looking at the lively Song Dynasty street scene outside, and asked him in German.

"Rome, the Holy Roman Empire! I haven't thanked you for saving my life...... I swear by the honor of the Steinffen family that I will buy back my freedom with a ransom that will wash away my shame! Hearing Hong Tao speak German again, the white slave finally came back to life, and without saying a word, he knelt on one knee, drew a cross on his chest with his right hand, and then clenched his fist to his forehead, and began to swear with his head half-tilted. There are some words that Hong Tao doesn't understand, but the Holy Roman Empire, family honor, ransom, and freedom still understand.

"You're a knight of the Crusaders, aren't you? Defeated and captured? Are you a nobleman? Seeing Carl's standard knightly etiquette, Hong Tao suddenly understood a little bit how this guy was captured as a slave. Isn't the 13th century the era of the Crusades, and I still know a little about this war that lasted for more than 200 years, because in the San Lega Academy, there is a special European medieval class, and sometimes there is nothing to do, and there are beautiful girls in the class, and Hong Tao will also go in to listen. In order to make the girl remember herself, rushing to answer the professor's question is his stunt, and what supports this stunt is to look at the textbook and figure out what it says.

"I'm ashamed that before I saw the real enemy, the ship sank! Those damned infidels don't give me knightly honor! In front of the slave owner, this Carl didn't even dare to fart, but as soon as he heard Hong Tao's words, he blushed and began to defend himself, it seems that the power of the whip is still great!

"How many crusades are you?" Hong Tao has no interest in what knights are not knights, honor is not honor, compared to the Great Song Dynasty, he knows less about medieval Europe, saving this Carl is not to look at him pleasing to the eye, but to understand the current situation of Europe through his understanding.

"For the sixth time, His Majesty Friedrich II personally marched! There are also the Knights Templar, the Knights Hospitaller, and the Teutonic Knights! Carl was still on his knees on one leg, just putting his hands down.

"When did it start?" Hong Tao heard another name in his memory, and suddenly felt a little excited.

His Majesty Emperor Friedrich II was an interesting man, claiming to be the first intellectual emperor of Europe. He had a very rough life, losing his father at a young age, then following his mother into a struggle for the king of Germany, which he eventually lost, and then he married a princess widow who was ten years older than him. When he inherited the Holy Roman Emperor, the relationship with the pope has not been very good, and he has been excommunicated from the church four times by two popes, but everyone is a systematic person, expelled and joined, joined and expelled, anyway, I have never heard of any emperor who has such an experience with him, even Napoleon is difficult to match.

What's even more interesting is that he also led a very special crusade in his life, which left all of Europe dumbfounded. Not a single infidel was killed, not a decent battle was fought, and finally arrived in Egypt, and began to negotiate with the Sultan of the Ayyubid Dynasty of Islam, who ruled Egypt and the Middle East at that time. In the end, Shengsheng stunned the Sultan and took most of the jurisdiction of the holy city of Jerusalem without blood, but he could not send troops, and he had to use this holy city with the Sultan. In any case, the ultimate goal of the Crusade was to retake the Holy City, and he was done!

Of course, this ultimate goal is only a fig leaf, and the goal of the church is to use the crusade to rob the treasures of the Middle East and expand the influence of the church. But the Church's calculations allowed His Majesty Friedrich II to save the country, the fig leaf was obtained, not a single treasure was robbed, and none of the infidels were killed! was so angry that the Pope jumped to his feet and scolded, and directly excommunicated him from the church for the second time, and the first expulsion was because he dragged on and pretended to be sick without sending troops.

Not only the church is angry, but the emperors of all Europe are also angry, isn't this a joke? At that time, the power of the European Church was very large, so the Germans even wanted to collude with the Sultan and directly kill the emperor who had smeared the royal family and nobles of all Europe in Jerusalem, so as not to let him go back and be embarrassed.
