"Wait a minute! Your Excellency will be here in a moment! The office secretary arranged for Deng Haonan and Yan Siyu to sit and wait, and then he left directly.

About two hours later, a Portuguese officer in a navy uniform in dark blue pushed the door open. At the age of about forty, this man was Colonel Maersk Ruyer.

Yan Siyu muttered in Deng Haonan's ear: "This guy is so big, it's enough to make us wait for an hour!" ”

Deng Haonan whispered: "The Portuguese are like this!" Everything is slow and slow, fortunately, we arranged it in advance, otherwise it is really not suitable for his procrastination! ”

After the interpreter had spoken a few words to Colonel Maersk Ruye, the Governor of Macao immediately came to Tang Haonan and Yan Siyu.

The Portuguese value politeness very much, and after Colonel Maersk Ruye knew that Yan Siyu was Yan Siqi's sister, he expected that she was the principal, so he greeted Yan Siyu first and stretched out his hand to shake hands with Yan Siyu.

Yan Siyu jumped under this action, Yan Siyu immediately took half a step back, clasped his fists and said: "Brother Alliance Yan Siyu, I have seen the Governor!" ”

A trace of unhappiness flashed in Colonel Maersk's eyes, he was already very unhappy when he saw Yan Siyu veiled, but he didn't shake hands with him at this time? This made him unhappy with his emphasis on politeness. Fortunately, Yan Siyu is a woman, this Portuguese has always been very cold to women, if it is replaced by a man, it will be blown away immediately!

Yan Siyu didn't know why, but Deng Haonan understood that he had already done tutoring yesterday!

"Ethiopian Maskiev!" Deng Haonan hurriedly stepped forward, shook Colonel Maersk Ruye's hand, and said, "My name is Deng Haonan, and I am very honored to meet His Excellency the Governor!" Allow me to greet your family and wish them good health! ”

No matter what the Portuguese do, they must greet each other's family members when they meet, even if it is a matter of burning eyebrows, they must first complete this set of etiquette, otherwise they will not be able to talk. In the past, when the Chinese came to ask the Portuguese for help, they didn't care about this aspect, and the solution of many problems was greatly discounted.

Colonel Maersk Ruye was stunned for a moment, and saw Deng Haonan greeting him in Portuguese, and he was so polite, the unhappiness just now was swept away, and he immediately shook hands with Deng Haonan happily, and said, "It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Deng!" Thank you for your blessings! Take me to your family and wish them good health! ”

Deng Haonan smiled and said thank you!

Then Colonel Maersk Ruyer asked: "You speak Portuguese very well!" I don't know who I learned it from? ”

Deng Haonan smiled awkwardly and said, "I can only say a few words, and I still learned from Father John Tong of St. Paul's Church!" ”

Colonel Maersk Ruye asked in surprise, "Do you know Father John Tong?" ”

Deng Haonan nodded and said, "Yes!" When I was ready to memorize the Bible, I went to Father John Tong for baptism! Deng Haonan is talking nonsense, but he is clear-eyed, so that people can't doubt it, and even Yan Siyu on the side was surprised!

When Colonel Maersk Ruye saw that Deng Haonan was also preparing to join the Catholic Church, he immediately felt very cordial with Deng Haonan. He has been in Daming for more than two years, and he knows that it is extremely difficult for Catholicism to spread in China, and he must tolerate the Chinese who join Catholicism to worship their ancestors.

Since the Nanjing Incident a few years ago, the Ming Dynasty expelled all Catholics in China, and Matteo Ricci's decades of hard work in China were all in vain. Now that Deng Haonan has taken the initiative to join the Catholic Church, Colonel Maersk Ruye has renewed his confidence in spreading the teachings of the Catholic Church in China.

At this time, Colonel Maersk Ruye felt that he had a common language with Deng Haonan, and was not as difficult to get along with as other Ming people, and his words were not speculative.

In addition to being excited, Colonel Maersk Ruye saw that Deng Haonan had learned a few words of Portuguese with great difficulty, so he immediately switched to Chinese to chat directly with Deng Haonan.

Then, Colonel Maersk Ruye and Deng Haonan walked aside to greet themselves, and Yan Siyu stood aside and was ignored as a telephone pole, which was indescribably embarrassing. So, Yan Siyu sat down sullenly and listened to Deng Haonan constantly fooling the governor of Macau.

Deng Haonan knows that the Portuguese are very procrastinating, not that they are not efficient, but before doing business, a lot of messy polite words must be said enough.

However, seeing Yan Siyu's deflated appearance, Deng Haonan was happy in his heart. So, Deng Haonan still didn't mention business, and then took out the picture of the Spring Festival Gala of Ma Yuan in the Southern Song Dynasty that he prepared for Colonel Maersk Ruye and gave it to him.

"This is for me?" Colonel Maersk Ruyer was very fond of oriental antique calligraphy and paintings, especially this ancient painting of the Southern Song Dynasty, and he had wanted to buy it for a long time, but unfortunately the shopkeeper cost eight hundred taels of silver, and he, the newly appointed governor, did not have so much money to buy it.

"Yes!" Deng Haonan smiled and said: "I heard that His Excellency the Governor likes calligraphy and painting very much, so I will borrow flowers to offer Buddha, I hope His Excellency the Governor can like it!" ”

As he spoke, Deng Haonan secretly glanced at Yan Siyu next to him, only to see her sitting there, glaring at herself angrily, it seemed that she was annoyed that she didn't talk about it yet! Or maybe you were left out by others and felt very unable to get off the stage!

Deng Haonan smiled secretly in his heart: Little girl, learn hard!

At this time, Colonel Maersk Ruye talked to Deng Haonan about the story of Ma Yuan in the Southern Song Dynasty. Where did Deng Haonan know Ma Yuan's story? So he arranged the story of the painter Xu Beihong, whom he was familiar with, to Ma Yuan.

This Colonel Maersk Ruye is only interested in Chinese painting, not yet at the level of an enthusiast, and listens to the stories made up by Deng Haonan with relish.

Yan Siyu next to her closed her eyes, she knew Deng Haonan's details, and she was quite speechless about Deng Haonan's words, but she couldn't come out to raise the bar, she could only be out of sight and out of mind. But the ears are erect high, and not a word falls!

Deng Haonan and Colonel Maersk Ruyer talked about life from calligraphy and painting, and expanded from life to history. The translator who listened to it last dozed off, and Yan Siyu seemed to be asleep.

About an hour later, Colonel Maersk Ruye felt very happy, and then he remembered that Deng Haonan and others must have something to do when they came to him, and immediately asked: "Mr. Deng, this young lady is Yan Siqi's sister, there must be something to come to me!" ”

When Yan Siyu heard this, he immediately opened his eyes, turned his head and was about to speak, but was interrupted by Deng Haonan.

"That's right! She is indeed the sister of our leader! But she's here to play, and I want to ask His Excellency the Governor for a favor! ”

Deng Haonan's words suddenly made Yan Siyu roll his eyes angrily, glanced at Deng Haonan fiercely, and then glanced over, sulking.

It turns out that Deng Haonan is the person in charge! Colonel Maersk Ruye immediately said happily: "I see! I don't know if Mr. Deng needs my help? ”

Disclaimer: This book has no abusive tendencies! The female characters in the book have their own personality traits, and I don't think you want to see the same female characters! I guess it's monotonous again! At the moment, the protagonist can't fight with Yan Siyu at all, and when the protagonist is strong in the future, he will naturally train her! Bahaha!
