The name of this British envoy is Howard, and his full name is relatively long, and Lin Xianyu didn't remember it.

Anyway, this foreigner looks quite good, with snow-white skin, blue eyes, a particularly high nose bridge, and pale blonde hair playfully curled.

The envoy, Mr. Howard, smeared his mouth like honey, "My God, Your Royal Highness the Princess, you are so noble and beautiful, you are like the moon in the sky, it is really a blessing for me to be able to look at your face!" ”

Yo, this foreigner can also speak idioms!

Lin Xianyu was so praised that his smile became more and more intense.

On the other hand, Yinyu on the side, because Howard praised Lin Xianyu's appearance with a flamboyant tongue, his handsome face gradually became gloomy.

"Oh, by the way, please allow me to introduce some, this is my wife Catherine!" Howard immediately called a hot Western woman to come forward, this Catherine...... Well, it's very white and big.

Howard whispered a few words to his wife in bird language that Lin Xianyu didn't understand, and then she saw Catherine pinching her big fluffy skirt, bending her knees slightly, and opening her mouth to slick a string of English.

Lin Xianyu: What is she talking about?

Seeing that Howard already had a wife, Yinyu's face softened slightly, and he hurriedly said, "Mrs. Howard is greeting you, oh, by the way, she also praised you for your beautiful clothes." ”

Lin Xianyu smiled: "Lady Catherine's dress is also very beautiful. ”

It was a large burgundy skirt, which stretched the waist very thin, and squeezed the chest to the extreme grandeur, especially this bend of the knee, which was even more exposed.

Good ball, good ball.

Yinyu opened her mouth with a string of proficient bird language, although it was Chinese English, but it was obviously translating for her.

Lin Xianyu just wanted to find a crack in the ground to get into, as a modern person, she actually needed the ancients to be his translator!

She almost forgot that Yinyu has a very high language talent, not only proficient in the four Qing languages of Manchu, Mongolian, Tibetan and Chinese, but also several Western dialects, which can be said to be a language genius.

At the banquet, all kinds of Western beauties, dragging big skirts, stepped forward one after another, greeting her, the princess of the Qing Dynasty, although she couldn't understand a word, but it could be seen that they were very respectful.

Yinyu's performance today is also very good, his eyes don't see anything that he shouldn't see, and he communicates with Howard and several other handsome Western guys throughout the whole process.

Well...... Something doesn't seem right??

This Western banquet prepared a lot of exquisite and delicious cakes, as well as black tea and small snacks, which were very sweet and greasy, Lin Xianyu wore a dragon robe with a loose waist, and could enjoy it to the fullest.

And those Western beauties, all of whom tie their waists very tightly, look at so many delicious pastries, but can't enjoy too much, it's a kind of torture.

Thinking of this, Lin Xianyu ate even more deliciously.

Yinyu, a master of language, is surrounded by foreigners, talking eloquently, switching English from time to time, which is very smooth.

made Lin Xianyu feel that he was a language idiot again.

If it weren't for the natural eye and the memory of several lifetimes, I'm afraid she wouldn't even be able to learn Manchu.

Lin Xianyu and Yinyu didn't stop talking the whole time, they couldn't stop eating, and the latter kept chattering.

It was already evening when he returned to the post station, Lin Xianyu took off the heavy golden silk tin on his head, and couldn't help but ask Yinyu: "How did you learn so many foreign languages?" ”

Yinyu looked indifferent, "The language of foreigners is actually very simple. ”

Simple?

Lin Xianyu almost vomited blood, in modern times, she has been learning English since she was a child, and she feels simple at all!

Yin Yu smiled: "This foreign language is much easier to learn than Chinese." ”

Hearing this, Lin Xianyu was really speechless to refute, yes, Chinese is recognized as the most difficult language in the world, but when human beings are in infancy, their language talent seems to be full, and they can easily learn their mother tongue.

Then, as I get a little older, this talent with a full number of points seems to degenerate.

However, it seems that this talent of some people has not degenerated.

Lin Xianyu casually asked Yinyu: "By the way, how did you talk to these foreigners?" Among these foreigners were representatives of the East India Company, envoys of the British Crown, and people who held both positions.

Yin Yu smiled, "They have promised me that they will not sell Fleur. "—he'd investigated it before, and this Fleur is indeed not a good thing.

"The representative of the East India Company also complained to me that the tariffs were too heavy, the local officials had too much appetite, and the Thirteen Foreign Banks had a monopoly on foreign trade, and they hoped to be able to do more and more in-depth business directly with the Qing Dynasty." Yinyu casually stated these problems one by one.

Lin Xianyu nodded, these thirteen foreign banks are not a good thing, they almost monopolized foreign trade by bribing and Shen before.

But because of the fall of Heshen, the situation of Thirteen Oceans is not optimistic.

"Efuye, Ollie!" Lin Xianyu patted Yinyu's shoulder and went to take a bath.

Yin Yujun's face is circled: What do you mean? Ollie gives? It sounds like English, but why can't he understand it?

For several days, Yinyu was busy, and Lin Xianyu also occasionally attended some foreigners' banquets, and in less than a month, she felt ...... I seem to be fat.

Hemp eggs, foreigners' pastries are filled with sugar and cream butter! The calories are too high!

Lin Xianyu pinched the soft flesh on his waist, wanting to cry without tears.

Fortunately, Yinyu's serious business has been discussed, and he is busy buying foreign goods so that he can return to Beijing to dump. Otherwise, after some time, the treaty port will be officially opened, and these foreign goods will not be so rare.

At this time, the Qing Dynasty was actually in a very high trade surplus, and foreigners bought a large number of silk, tea, and porcelain, but sold very few things to the Qing Dynasty.

That's why it was later sold on a large scale, causing the trade surplus to turn into a deficit.

In fact, the surplus and deficit or something, these businessmen don't care, they care about making money!

As long as you can make money, why don't you sell Furong?

Yinyu also promised that he would intercede for these foreigners, and the emperor would lower tariffs slightly, and appropriately relax the control of foreigners, so that they could trade relatively freely, and also open more commercial ports.

In contrast, the East India Company needed to sell the best ships, artillery, and guns to the Qing Dynasty, which were purchased by the imperial court.

It was true that the East India Company was also engaged in the war trade, and it was too late for them to rejoice that someone wanted to buy weapons.

All in all, the negotiations ended perfectly.

When Yinyu was buying local specialties on a large scale, news also came from Beijing, saying that Feng was seriously ill.

Yin Yu pouted and said, "I don't know if it's a real illness or a fake disease." ”

In any case, the date of Yinyu's return to Beijing must be advanced.

Rao is so, Yinyu also bought ten ships of sought-after goods, including Western treasures, as well as local specialties of Guangdong, once transported back to the capital, there will be huge profits.

That's why Yinyu doesn't look down on those expensive gifts from local officials.
