Chapter 275: First Meeting (Three Changes!) )

About three hours later, Meghan, the administrator of Lisbon, arrived at the port with her men.

After arriving at the port wharf, he learned from Wang Shan that Zhao Hongyu didn't want to get off the ship at all.

Therefore, he hurriedly sent someone to inform the noble companions who had received his notice and went to the manor to rush to the docks.

Since this somewhat eccentric crown prince doesn't like to go ashore, then let him be.

Megan doesn't think it's a little bad.

Big people always have some weird tempers and personalities, don't they?

Therefore, Meghan was invited to the ship, after all, he represented Lisbon officials. And he himself is the highest official in charge of the city, so Zhao Hongyu can't snub him.

He didn't find out until Megan saw Zhao Hongyu after she got on the boat.

It turns out that His Majesty the Crown Prince is so young, and he may not even be eighteen years old.

At this time, while waiting for other nobles, Megan chatted with Zhao Hongyu.

When talking to Zhao Hongyu, he found that the crown prince's Spanish was very authentic, and even some slang words were very accurate, which made him very curious.

Wang Shan is clear about this, his Royal Highness has a big language plug-in, and it is not strange to speak Spanish.

But Megan didn't know what to do, so Zhao Hongyu suddenly became tall and mysterious in his heart.

In addition, Zhao Hongyu brought a little bit of pretending to be 13 in his gestures, which made Megan even more admired.

In today's Europe, there is no such thing as aristocratic demeanor.

It was not until after Louis XIII came to power in France that the trend of aristocratic style slowly became popular and formed a trend in Europe.

Now the so-called aristocratic demeanor is to find a lover to mess around, and then rub white powder on the face in a tone of tone all day.

Compared with Zhao Hongyu's set of eighteenth-century aristocratic models learned from blockbusters, the aristocrats at this time were really scum.

In addition, Zhao Hongyu said two sonnets. Immediately made Meghan shocked.

is really worthy of being an heir cultivated by an empire, and he really has an aristocratic demeanor.

At the same time, the Praetorian Guards on Zhao Hongyu's battleship were full of spirit, and the clothes on their bodies were also eye-catching.

It looked like a European army, and it looked like a man who was asking for food called Hanako, or it was like a riot and a bandit.

"Your Highness, as the crown prince, was able to cross the sea and come to us alone, your courage is truly worthy of my appreciation." , Megan has been carefully looking for topics with Zhao Hongyu, and keeps observing Zhao Hongyu when talking. Look at his reactions to certain topics.

He now needs to find Zhao Hongyu's preferences, and then prescribe the right medicine.

Yes, it's a moving gold mine, and the benefits are obvious if you can get his friendship.

Don't look at the goods that are released on the surface of the Song Empire now, Meghan has always thought that there are better goods in the Song Empire, but they haven't been sold by others.

Anyway, now that the trade quota is saturated, it is not impossible for me to find other commodities and monopolize them.

It would be even better if he could have the support of the imperial crown prince in the matter of monopoly.

But how to get the support of the crown prince.

Well. Quite simply, it would be nice to get his friendship.

It doesn't matter if things don't go as he guesses, and with this level of friendship, will there be less benefit?

As long as you're not stupid, you can see it.

Although this world is not as good as that of later generations, people are not stupid.

Especially when it comes to things that are closely related to interests. They usually do things that are impressive.

The conversation with Megan was very pleasant, he always knew how to cooperate with you, and a few words made you feel good about him.

Deliberate and unpretentious flattery is just right, and patting sycophants is also a science.

And Meghan did it perfectly.

Zhao Hongyu also knew that Meghan was flattering herself. And has been cooperating with himself.

But he still enjoyed it.

"We call this ocean that separates the Americas from Europe the Atlantic, and it really takes a little courage to come here through it, because you never know what you're going to encounter at sea. Storm. The monsters in the deep sea are all deadly. ”

Zhao Hongyu said to Megan with a smile.

"But Your Highness, you don't lack this courage, do you, and that's why you're now in Lisbon." , Megan also responded with a smile. "I don't know where Your Highness wants to go this time, are you here to play in Europe or ......", Meghan pretended to be a salute here, and raised her hand to hit her mouth a few times.

"Oh, look at me, it's a pig's brain. How can I ask about such a thing, and please don't blame Your Highness. You have to say that this guy is really good at pretending and has very good acting skills.

With him, it's hard for you to feel bad for him.

However, Zhao Hongyu is not a turtle in this era, how could he be deceived by his performance.

Besides, after experiencing the baptism of the information culture explosion in later generations, Zhao Hongyu has never seen any kind of person. What's more, all kinds of blockbusters have been bombarded indiscriminately, so Megan's performance Zhao Hongyu didn't pay attention to it at all.

But Zhao Hongyu is still very cooperative with him, because Zhao Hongyu is now pretending to be a little crown prince who is not deeply involved in the world and is still very naïve.

"I'm planning to come to Europe for a trip, and now that the trade between European countries and our empire is very frequent, I'm very curious about the countries here, so I have plans to come here." , Zhao Hongyu is also the kind of person who is very capable of fooling people, and Megan didn't expect this at all.

"And one of my wives is the Countess Samuel of France, and of course now her title is going to be changed. Samuel is the family name for the guy who died, isn't it. ”

Zhao Hongyu reached out in his jacket pocket, took out a white handkerchief, gently wiped the corners of his mouth, and then looked at Meghan obliquely.

"Yes, Your Highness, according to the rules, that lady can no longer use the title of Samuel. But the Earl is a fake, congratulations. ”

Meghan flattered, and at the same time wrote down the message in her heart.

The crown prince of the Song Empire in the Americas, he had a wife of a count who was born in Europe and was also French. That's a very important piece of information. Why didn't you receive such a message, it's a failure.

Meghan felt it was necessary to let the captains know what information was most important.

In fact, Meghan really blamed the captains of his family, and they received this information.

It's just a pity that they haven't returned to Europe yet, and the ghost knows that Zhao Hongyu's battleships are so fast, and those unlucky people have to go to Africa to sell goods after they leave the Americas.

Generally speaking, merchant ships rarely return to their homeland unless they have something very important.

Of course, Zhao Hongyu married his wife. And the news that she is still a European countess is really not remembered by most of the seafarers.

For them, it's just a man marrying a wife, nothing new.

Only a small number of people will remember the news and develop some associations.

There are too few such people, and they also have this other identity, that is, 'spies'.

"Aha, I don't know if I'm honored. You can meet this beautiful countess. Meghan turned to Sarah, "Your love story must be very moving, you can meet it across the ocean." This is really a fateful thing. ”

Meghan is very good at talking.

"Of course, there is no problem."

Zhao Hongyu bowed slightly, and after saying that he could, he asked Wang Shan to call Sara out.

Because of Meghan's arrival, Sara and Emma have already taken refuge in the captain's room. For Emma told her that according to the Indian rule, if her husband had a guest, the women were not allowed to see anyone.

Unless the husband told them to go out.

Although Sara is very dismissive of this rule. But for Emma's sake, she can only obey this rule.

God knows what Emma will do to her if she doesn't obey.

When she was in Manhattan, many people told her that the way an Indian woman punished a disobedient wife of low status was very terrifying.

And the people who said these words were Wang Shan and Zhang Tie.

Anyway, what they said was how terrifying it was, and how terrifying it was that Sara couldn't sleep for a few days.

In fact, they are also thinking about Emma, so that Sara does not bully her.

In their eyes, Emma is simple, cute, and scheming, although she is a little greedy for money, but this is not a problem.

Sara is different.

She is very mature, and she is a European aristocrat, and she wants to be more scheming than Emma.

If she really plays with her brain, Emma is really not her opponent.

For Zhao Hongyu, there can be many women around him, but only Emma is the most suitable as a wife.

The reason is simple, Emma simply has no scheming and no ambitions.

So, Wang Shan and they felt that they wanted to protect Emma and at the same time keep her position in the family she formed with Zhao Hongyu.

Then, Sara is definitely going to have a hard time.

Fortunately, Wang Shan didn't do anything too much, but just made up some family rules and regulations for the Indian wives to follow.

Emma's father, Black Bear, is supportive of this because it's good for his daughter, isn't it.

The black bear is not brain-dead, he can distinguish the good ones.

Therefore, he also cooperated with Sara to have an in-depth conversation, vaguely revealing the rights of the eldest wife of the Mohicans.

It was when Zhao Hongyu took Emma and Sara to the Manhattan Island Manor that Black Bear and his wife, who was Zhao Hongyu's mother-in-law, took turns educating Sara.

So, Sara was convinced of this.

Since then, she has been respectful to Emma, and she is deeply afraid that she will be punished by the eldest wife's family law for doing something wrong.

Therefore, she disdains it, and when she heard that it was the rule of the Indian family, this is the reason why she still obeyed it.

"Your Highness, please, please come with me."

After Wang Shan came to the captain's room, he made an announcement at the door.

Emma and Sara glanced at each other, and then the two of them followed Wang Shan out one after another.

Emma wore a smaller, queuing party uniform, a crown of eagle feathers on her head, and a long tail feather that reached her waist. This is a headdress worn by the leaders of the great tribes of the Indians, and Emma's outfit is called noble in the Americas.

A red queue party jacket, white breasts, gold gilt trim, black trousers, and shiny unobstructed leather boots.

Well, such a dress is called nondescript.

But the problem is that Emma thinks it looks good, and it is a combination of Indian style and Song Empire style.

God is pitiful, this kind of costume of the queuing party is not Huaxia style.

But Zhao Hongyu won't tell her clearly, anyway, if the little girl likes it, let her go.

Zhao Hongyu also thinks it's very good.

At her waist hung a European rapier with a beautiful gilded handle of a short firebolt.

The little girl straightened her waist, raised her little face slightly, and walked over very proudly.

For Emma's performance, Wang Shan behind her was very satisfied.

You must know that what Emma is showing now is all taught by him, Song Hu and Zhang Tie.

Poor Emma, she didn't know that all that she had learned had been compiled by three unscrupulous fellows.

Although the three of them fooled Emma and said that it was proper court etiquette......

Behind Emma, Sara wore a high-necked, tight-fitting waisted tutu skirt, a pair of small black leather shoes, and a folding fan in her hand.

On her head, a lady's top hat was worn diagonally, and she wore her long blond hair in a coil.

This is a lady's dress that only existed in the eighteenth century, but now it has been made out by Zhao Hongyu and others, and it has become the fashion trend of the empire.

It must be said that it makes sense that this dress was prevalent in the XVIII century.

When Zhao Hongyu taught Sara, Sara immediately liked the outfit.

In general, compared to the open-breasted puffy skirt of this era, it can still be accepted by Zhao Hongyu.

In particular, the small folding fan played a role for Sarah.

This is an oriental thing, and it's very expensive.

Not even Emma, only herself.

When Zhao Hongyu fooled Sara with his conscience, Sara's heart was sweet to death at that time.

Ten yuan for a casual wholesale folding fan was said by Zhao Hongyu to be a 'valuable' item that could only be bought for ten taels of gold.

It just so happened that the Europeans of this era were particularly fond of the mysterious and rich Orient, especially the silk and daily necessities from the East.

So, how could Sara not like it.

On the spot, she 'poofed' Zhao Hongyu twice.

"Well, Your Highness, your luck has made all the men in the world jealous to death, and your two queens are so beautiful."

When Emma and Sara came over under the leadership of Wang Shan, Megan made a very exaggerated expression, raised her hand to hold her chest and made a painful expression and said to Zhao Hongyu. (To be continued.) )
