After talking about "serious things" here, the two soon met Su Duxue, Zhu Yueyue, and Wang Jiaojiao...... As well as Feng Yufei, Su Wuxiang and other old friends - Anna got along well with these women when she was in Hainan before, especially in terms of clothing and fashion, it was Anna who brought them the first fashions of this time and space.

At this time, everyone complimented each other again on each other's clothes and accessories, and then talked about their respective experiences after separation. By the way, Anna introduced them to several "new friends......

After the capture of the territory, the Qiong navy severely suppressed political and religious figures, and was more lenient with the merchant community. And the trend in this regard has become even more pronounced since Jack took office. The port of Manila served as a transportation artery connecting the Americas and Europe, and there were many European merchants who settled here with their families. Some of the merchants returned to Europe after the capture of the city, but some of the foundations had to stay. They were all nervous at first, but as time went on, they gradually began to relax - no matter how strict Wang Haiyang and others were, their morality and management methods were not comparable to those of the colonists of this era. Clear and unambiguous rules of rewards and punishments, and strict control of the armed forces, have kept the situation in Manila out of control, even during the most chaotic period of counterinsurgency.

When Manila was once again under the control of the two Europeans, this relaxation quickly turned into trust, and the merchants tried to get as close as possible to the "Governor Jack", while their wives and daughters naturally aimed at Anna's side. Although there were not many people who could get acquainted with her here, there were three or five ladies and ladies who could enter the little salon that Anna had set up—she was here alone, and she had to spend some time socially.

This time, when they heard that the real ruler of Manila was coming, the local merchants tried their best to flatter them. The people who can travel all the way from Europe to Southeast Asia to operate must have the most flexible minds and skills. In the eyes of the traversal public, tonight's reception was just a feast, but in the eyes of those local merchants who intended to establish contact with the Qiong Navy and even the Ming Dynasty, it was an out-and-out road to heaven

Of course, I tried my best to get in and make a face, and there are not a few people who take the route of Mrs. Miss. Because they had already inquired - in that bizarre ruling group, the status of women was quite high. Social circles always have to give face to each other, and Anna introduced more than a dozen local ladies and gentlemen. It's a pity that for those European women, it is too difficult to fit into the small circle of women who cross the border - they don't know their interests and hobbies, and they don't even understand the language. Except for Julie, who could converse with them in a few Chinese languages such as French, German and Italian, the others could barely communicate - English was not popular at all in this time and space.

Fortunately, not long after, Lin Chengcheng, the little lady of Beiwei, brought her friends to join the group, which alleviated the dilemma that the two sides had nothing to say. Most of Mr. Lin's friends were daughters of wealthy local Chinese businessmen, and they were well educated from an early age, and some hired Western teachers to teach them European language and manners—a circle that had to be followed by the rules of the family. Although the tide of hosts and visitors has reversed, it will not be long before the local Westerners will be able to learn Chinese with all their might, but at least for now, their language skills are still very useful.

This time when she returned to her parents' house, Lin Chengcheng returned to her hometown, and she really showed her face in front of her former boudoir close friends - although she was willing to marry Shorthair, and the family was also pushing the boat, there are still many people who doubt it among relatives and friends - can Shorthair gain a foothold on Luzon's side? Cheng Cheng married a soldier and went there alone, will he be bullied? Will that group of people be treated as rebels by the Great Tomorrow Dynasty in the future? INTERVIEWER There are a lot of doubts like that.

However, all these thoughts vanished as soon as they saw the great iron ship Qionghai carrying a great envoy aboard the port of Manila6 - the majestic steel batteries of the battleship Qionghai were enough to dispel any suspicion that the Spaniards might counterattack in the future; And the appearance of a dignified Heavenly Dynasty third-grade official and an internal official beside the Great Tomorrow Son is enough to prove the immeasurable future of those short-haired people. Especially when Lin Chengcheng proudly told them that his father-in-law was already a real master of the Great Ming Dynasty, the envy shown by those Chinese businessmen and ladies made the little girl's self-esteem satisfied to the most.

Studying, lifting the middle school, taking the entrance examination, becoming an official - this is the most traditional and authentic way for the Chinese to advance for thousands of years. Even those wealthy Chinese businessmen who have left their homeland and established a great business overseas, in their minds, the fame and fortune from their homeland still have an irreplaceable special significance. Not to mention these businessmen, even Zheng Zhilong, who has become the king of the Fujian Sea in the future, still wants his eldest son Zheng Sen to go to the big 6 to take the exam after clearing his identity as an anti-thief, and become one of the many white-clothed sons - because this is the so-called "right way".

Therefore, Lin Chengcheng's status as a lady stands out among this group of businessmen's families - although she is the shortest. But whatever she said was echoed by others, Lin Chengcheng became impatient after showing off like this for a while, so he came over to join the social circle of the big sisters.

Among the Chinese girls who came with her, there was a particularly outstanding beauty, but it was the daughter of another major Chinese family on Lusong Island, who had been to Hainan Island with the fleet last time, Miss Binnandu Chen. This Chinese-European mixed-race girl named Chen Yueer is very good-looking, in addition to being a little too devout to Catholicism, she is very educated in speech and demeanor, Julie Wang Jiaojiao and others liked her very much last time, and of course the closer they met this time. The girl spoke Spanish extremely fluently and acted as a translator. Her translation is not just about words, but also about bridging the gap between two different cultural systems, both Chinese and Western. The children of the Chen family are indeed clever and flexible, and the girls are full of witty words, and they soon enliven the originally somewhat stiff atmosphere.

…………

Since the buffet was held, it has been divided into its own circles according to different groups of people. Anna, Julie, and their ladies' social circle is the largest, because regardless of nationality and race, as long as women are all together, the chatter is very lively. On the other side, several Luzon Chinese groups with the surnames of Lin, Chen, and Li also gathered together, competing to express their excitement to Qian Qianyi, Eunuch Cao, and others to see the Ming envoy again in the local area after many years.

This Chinese circle was quite fierce from the very beginning - those Chinese merchants who could not go to the dock to greet them during the day insisted on kowtowing to the imperial court envoys, which was a matter of decency for the imperial court, and the eunuch Cao was not easy to dissuade, so he had to take a serious stand and accept a salute on behalf of the Son of Heaven. Because it was inconvenient in the banquet hall, they also went outside to lay carpets for them to kowtow - otherwise, a group of people here are eating and drinking with plates, and a group of old guys over there are lining up to kowtow one by one, who can still eat?

After finally tossing and turning for a long time, the two sides sat down and didn't say a word, and a few old men began to talk about some old things again, talking about how they were forced to leave their hometowns back then, how they suffered a lot of hardships here, and even recalled the massacre in the Wanli period...... and so on, and after a while, they all grabbed Qian Shilang's sleeves, sobbed and cried.

Thinking that Qian Dacai is also a sentimental character, he had to accompany them to shed a few sad tears, and said a word of comfort and comfort, so it was easy to appease these old people. A few middle-aged men came over there, came over to toast to the angel, and by the way, they also wanted to inquire about the imperial court's plans for the land of Luzon.

Qian Qianyi had listened to Professor Li's introduction on the boat before he came, and at this time he heard them report their names: Lin Yizhuo, Chen Dalei...... He is known to be the leading figure among the Chinese businessmen in Luzon today. They were obviously very concerned about the Ming court's policy towards Luzon, a "land outside the country" and the policies that they, the "people outside the country", would be very happy, on the one hand, they could return to the motherland, but on the other hand, they were worried about the harsh taxes that would follow.

So Qian Qianyi inevitably preached with them the tolerance and generosity of the imperial court, although he couldn't give any specific promises - he didn't have the power. But it is still vaguely revealed: according to the agreement with the shorthair, Luzon will be incorporated into the territory of the Ming Dynasty as a "place of bondage", and the so-called land of bondage is to be autonomous by the local soil, and of course it is a qiē by Qionghai Town.

first said a few clichés, and then the words of the Qian Archangel changed again: I, the Holy Son of Heaven of the Ming Dynasty, is magnificent, and the power is all over the world. If the local father insists on kissing the emperor's favor and accepting the jurisdiction of the imperial court, he can also transfer it to the center on his behalf. When the time comes, send some officials over - for Lao Qian, of course, they are eager to find a few more positions for the imperial court, just they have a large number of alternate officials in Donglin waiting for vacancies, although when the negotiations were made, short-haired insisted that these places were the same as Hainan, only the Ming banner was hung, and they were actually controlled by their short-haired hands, but if the local fathers and elders were all interested in the imperial court, Qian Qianyi felt that there was still a way to operate it......

After talking for a long time, I finally let those Chinese businessmen go thoughtfully. Before Qian Dacai could catch his breath, a group of young people came up next to him—but they admired his talent and came to ask for advice.

Poor Qian Qianyi was not used to eating the main meal just now, and he almost didn't eat anything at all. At this time, I saw that there was a traditional Cantonese meal on this table, and I wanted to take a few pieces to cushion my stomach. Faced with so many admiring eyes, he had no choice but to put down the plate in his hand......

- I had to continue.
