Chapter 594: Faith and the Voice of the Great Ming
Smelling the aroma coming through the tip of his nose, Donnie took a sip of the tea handed by the maid.
This kind of tea, which is completely different from the British way of drinking tea, is the most authentic way of drinking tea from the Ming Dynasty, which is far more advanced than the British Yankees who are crowned by monkeys.
Although, in reality, Downey's tongue told his brain that sweet English tea was better and more in line with his taste buds, he was still so determined to tell himself.
It's just that what Donnie doesn't know is that the real tea in his mind has only appeared for three to five hundred years.
"That is, a festival of tea, between the Tang and Song dynasties, the ointment, wax face, Jing collar, dragon group, or to grasp the subtlety, straight money hundreds of thousands, but also cherished, and the more the grinding, the more the tea is lost, mixed with incense?"
The tea of the British may be closer to the orthodoxy of the Tang and Song dynasties.
However, Daming obviously has the highest right to interpret tea culture.
Of course, Daming also has Coke, Bubble Tea, Leibi, Chayuan, Yulaoji, Big Walnut, Nutrition Line, Pulse Jin, Coconut to Coconut Water, Trensu...... and a series of other classic drinks with the highest right of interpretation.
·
Sipping his tea, Donnie carefully spit the tea leaves aside and observed the furnishings in the room.
A mixture of Chinese and Western, but quite aesthetically pleasing, you can see that the owner of this room is very tasteful.
Indeed, how can a scholar who can write such a masterpiece as "The Ugly Englishman" have bad taste?
That's right, Downey is visiting Gu Hongming, a scholar in the UK of the Ming Dynasty.
I have to say that Gu Hongming is a talent.
In history, he may not have made much academic achievements, but only relied on his maverick personality to gain attention.
But in fact, his understanding of the nature of Eastern and Western civilizations far exceeded that of most people of his time.
Now, with Zhu Fugui's funding, he has more profoundly observed the similarities and differences between Eastern and Western civilizations, and put forward the famous "Theory of the Death of the Sea".
That is to say, the maritime civilization based on the pirate culture is naturally despicable, while the Chinese civilization based on the culture of river governance is naturally noble.
If one day, as in Mr. Huang He's delusional "The Three-Body Problem" and "The Wandering Earth" (Magic Revision), there are alien creatures to conquer or destroy human beings, the only possible and capable of leading human beings to victory must be Chinese civilization.
For China to dominate the world is not a hegemonic mentality, but a choice that must be made for the well-being and future of all mankind.
I have to say that Gu Hongming said it too well, too much.
So in three sentences, he asked Zhu Fugui to approve 50,000 yuan from the inside to fund Gu Hongming's academic research.
So in Edinburgh, he was able to live in decent Big House and hire beautiful Scottish maids.
It must be stated that this is pure, academic funding, which does not involve ideological and political purposes, and is very ethical.
Even so, these private exchanges of funds are not enough for outsiders.
The only thing Downey knows is that Mr. Gu Hongming can be found in the British Isles, the person who is most proficient in Ming culture and Zhu Fuguiism.
He came to visit Mr. Gu Hongming today because there are many places in "My Struggle" that are difficult to understand, and he hopes that Mr. Gu can answer his questions.
Of course, the fare from Dublin to Edinburgh is not cheap.
What supported Donnie's coming and gave him confidence was that the "Chunfa No. 1" potato given by the Ming Khan before was ready for initial harvest after more than 60 days of growth.
Although due to the lack of planting time and the shortage of chemical fertilizers, this batch of potatoes did not grow to 2 tons per mu as the Ming Khan said.
But the harvest is still amazing!
This shows that what the Ming Khan said that the Ming Dynasty has the best seeds in the world, and these seeds are all obtained by relying on my struggle, this statement is not groundless, it is true!
This thrilled Donnie, and Downey.
He believed that with these potatoes, the Irish would be free from famine.
The premise is that the British, who should go to hell and fry it in a pan until golden on both sides, do not raise taxes, and do not make even more clever plunder!
What's more.
Since the potato is real, then of course Zhu Fuguiism is also true, and "My Struggle" is also true!
Therefore, in any case, Downey had to go to Edinburgh, Scotland, to seek advice from the scholar Koo.
·
The rain outside the window was still dripping and ticking.
No sooner had the tea been drunk than the maid appeared, filled it again, and then walked away again.
I have to say that Gu Hongming's level of selecting women is as superb as his language level.
Downey looked up at the grandfather clock, a Roman-style grandfather clock made in the Ming Dynasty.
The pointer on it points to eight o'clock.
A gray dove popped up from the clock, and "dove" and "dove" chirped eight times.
Next to the pigeon's clock, is a radio.
Downey had heard of such radios.
The radios developed by the Royal Academy of Sciences cost 500 pounds (about 130,000 yuan) each, which is not at all affordable for ordinary people.
However, a radio smuggled from the Ming Dynasty costs only 50 pounds, although it is still very expensive, but the small citizen class can buy one if they save a little.
And Downey knew that in Daming, such a Ming-made radio would cost less than 5 pounds.
It's a pity that because most of his teammates are poor ghosts, Donnie didn't buy one and bring it back.
It's not that there is not enough money to buy radios, but that there is not enough money to bribe customs employees at the Port of Liverpool.
That would cost at least £20.
Donnie looked at the radio curiously, and the maid suddenly appeared and turned on the radio.
"Thank you!" Downey said.
"No thanks."
The maid shook her head, "It's just a master's job, and I love to listen to the radio. ”
Then, she disappeared again.
At this moment, a magnetic male voice rang out from the radio, speaking English with a Fujian flavor.
"Cross the channel and have breakfast with you with my goodnight.
Hello everyone, this is the voice of Daming.
I'm your old friend Xia Jiang.
Today is November 1, the 7th year of Daming Dewu, and the Royal Meteorological Office of Daming reminds you that there is a possibility of heavy rain north of the Rhine!
Let's take a look at a few newsletters:
The 4th Richmond Fashion Week officially opened, and the Ming Emperor Mao Lilan attended on behalf of His Majesty the Emperor, and brought the costume work "Thousand Cherry Blossoms in Bloom".
The Queen of Austria, the Queen of Hungary and Princess Sisi from Bavaria attended the opening ceremony of the 'Han Yun' luxury store in Budapest yesterday and cut the ribbon.
The 'Han Yun' Budapest store is the first 'Han Yun' chain store in Europe, representing a more refined, more beautiful and more expensive consumption concept, and will lead the new trend of the European fashion circle.
According to Queen Elizabeth's personal doctor, the Queen has recently suffered from constipation and is trying coffee enema therapy, but with little success.
The medical official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said the Buckingham Palace medical team did not rule out the possibility of using higher-intensity tools to treat the Queen, but that this was technically risky.
According to the International Olympic Committee, a blood test revealed that Kanter Addington, a men's 200m athlete from the United Kingdom, had taken opioids before the competition.
In accordance with IOC Resolution 002, the IOC will cancel the athlete's results and confiscate the gold medal he has won.
The runner-up in the men's 200m, Peter Altmaier from Germany, will take the gold medal as a substitute.
It is reported that the Olympic Committee received a report from the German side before conducting a supplementary examination of the British athletes.
Mr. Zhu Fugui, President of the Olympic Committee, highly affirmed the excellent quality of German athletes who are not afraid of power and have the courage to denounce.
