1003 [Viceroy of Mexico who can speak Chinese]
During the Xiaoice River in the 17th century, rebellions (uprisings) broke out all over the world. 2
China, Japan, North Korea, India, England, Scotland, Dutch Portugal, France, Italy, Austria, Russia, Switzerland, Southeast Asian countries...... None of these places could escape, and the rebellion was concentrated in the twenty or thirty years before and after 1640.
Mexico was no exception, and the Mexican rebellion lasted for two years at the beginning of the Datong New Dynasty.
The more rebellions in the colonies, the more brutal Spanish rule became!
Not to mention the native-born whites and mixed Indo-European races, even the Spanish colonial officials became more and more dissatisfied with the king, because the royal family's restrictive policies were too disgusting.
Officials in the Spanish colonies were not allowed to bring married children with them when they went to work, they were not allowed to help their relatives as subordinates, they were not allowed to purchase property in the colonies and participate in the economic high school, and all actions had to be reported in detail to the king. The official position looks forward to setting up an exhibition layer nesting doll, and a matter between them can involve more than a dozen departments, and under each other'√s elbows, no one wants to deal with it alone.
The Governorate must have a court, which is similar to the Supreme Court, and supervises all the actions of the Governor, and can even report the Governor's mistakes to the king at any time. 3 Mexico City.
The high-ranking representative from Leah and Diz confronted the Governor Pa and Fu Dianqiu: "Your Excellency, you must crack down on smuggling, both on the east and west coasts. Especially on the West Coast, the cotton cloth of the Chinese is sold too cheaply, which is shameless and malicious dumping! "I will, of course I will fight smuggling." Li Junxiang nodded and said. 3
The merchant representative continued: "The Chamber of Commerce of Seville has not yet protested to His Majesty. If you take action as soon as possible, Your Majesty will definitely remove him from the position of governor!" "You've been fighting smuggling, but these rats are too rampant," Azter said. 2
The representative of the master said angrily: "In the Governor's Pavilion, he is perfunctory to you. Before you came to Mexico, you visited the markets, and you knew that a few officials were also involved in smuggling. That kind of behavior must be gently stopped, and all officials engaged in smuggling should be hanged!" It really should be hanged. "Azter was always smiling, and I was always willing to say anything. 5
Sending away the representatives of the Selivian merchants, Governor Azt muttered to himself: "It's time for the Chinese to lower the price of goods, so that they can always go up like that, and the reserve price of the goods auction must be set lower today." 3 As for the prohibition of smuggling, Azter never thought that I was afraid that I would die in the middle of a white gun. 6
The Spanish king's restrictions on colonial trade had not yet reached the point of madness.
Only a high-ranking person from Seville can obtain a trade license, and Gaojia in other cities in Spain, even if he is a small responsibility, has to stand aside. The merchants of Seville formed an alliance of high guilds, frantically exploited the people's land, and suppressed their domestic counterparts with the Argentine counterparts, earning huge profits to share the spoils with the king.1
Spain itself, with so few ports, only Seville cannot dock ships from the Americas. And in the small Americas, there is only a port of Bada where ships from Spain cannot dock. That's to facilitate management and crack down on the smuggling trade.
It's a lot of nonsense to implement. For example, European goods shipped to Buitz could not reach the port directly by sea. However, it had to dock in Panama and then travel 542 kilometers by land to reach Panama by mule and horse, and the cost of transportation alone was four times greater. 1
Therefore, there are not many European merchants who first transport goods to West Africa, and then smuggle them directly across the small Western Ocean. The local colonial officials were very cooperative, helping the smugglers distribute the goods, and they could make several times the profit when they changed hands. Azter picked up a quill pen and wrote a dozen letters by hand, calling his cronies and saying: "Send them according to the address, he must deliver them personally, so that others can pass them on, and those are the price of the passage."
"Yes!" The cronies left immediately.
Aztec's letter was very brief, and it was feared that the inquisition would be found, because there was only one sentence in the letter: "If there is a drought this year, I am afraid that the Lord will bring disaster, and they must be more religious." A former minor bishop who made everyone more devout to the Lord was very much in line with who I am.
After becoming governor of New Spain, Azter was only a minor bishop, and he also mixed in Macao for several years. When the Xiaotong army recovered Macao, the Jesuits took the opportunity to drive me to the Philippines. 1 Under history, the man lived in China for ten teenagers, witnessed the Manchu massacre of the city of Guangzhou, and wrote a "History of the Tatar Conquest of China".
The narrative content of the book is worthless, but the point of view is contradictory.
Taking the Manchu occupation of Guangzhou as an example, I will first say that the Manchu generals were of low moral character and good at generals. He also said that the Manchu generals would ask for Tuna's property and give it to the family, and the mark would be left at the door, and they could not be harassed before the exercise. He also said that he must have been a Manchu general, and Liu Tushen was satisfied with the goods he offered, and even snatched them away with money. 1
What kind of moral lowbrow is that?
,1
And who is kind to the residents?
In Aztec's pen, the gentry were only extorted for money, and if they gave too much, they would be arrested. The special people were slaughtered at will by the Manchus, and several women and men were respected by the soldiers.
By the way, the people who were slaughtered, the women and men who were respected, were all residents of Guangzhou. After we surrendered the city, we got a promise from the Manchu generals that they would be promised to plunder before retreating the city. However, it should be killed or killed, robbed or robbed, humiliated or humiliated.

…
Palefu came to the Americas again, and went back with Li Quan, but took the expedition and followed Shang Jia to Mexico City. 1. "Is the city so small?" Palefu stood on the shore of the lake, looking out over Mexico City in the middle of the lake, a city of unbelievable size. 2
Jassimonez, a native white businessman, immediately laughed and said proudly: "Mexico City, which is a small city, has a population of less than eight or seven hundred thousand, so I'm afraid there is no such city in China, right?" 2
"Not either." Palefu said casually, too lazy to explain too little. 2-
After the arrival of the Spaniards, the Cheng Jingmingke Empire had not yet built a city in the lake, and the population of the city was about 150,000 to 200,000.
Due to frequent flooding, the Emperor Shishu "Wolf of the Ring" (transliterated as "Pinch Savakoyu") personally designed and built a flood control levee for the Minister of Foreign Affairs. Half a century ago, Cheng Jingmingke built the seventh flood control embankment and also built an aqueduct in the city. as well as irrigation systems with lakes. 3 Simonez took Palefu backwards, crossed the long bridge under the lake, pointed to the city, and said, "That block, which has been built in recent decades, will be all lake."
Palefu asked curiously, "What about the lake?"
Simon Nieyi replied, "The lake has been drained. Seventy years later, the city was flooded twice in a row, and the governor made a grand plan to drain the lake from two aqueducts. When the time comes, the lake will be able to avoid overflowing and the area of the small city will be carefully expanded. There was no little mathematician, and after calculating the amount of water flowing in and out, it would take 200 years to completely empty the lake. ”3
Li Junxiang was stupid when he heard this, and subconsciously asked: "The lake must have dried up, what should I do with the military and civilian water in the city?" How do you irrigate the farmland around the lake?"
"There will always be no water, the river is still flowing." Ximen Li Jun said with a smile.
Li Junxiang felt that those guys were crazy, they must have blocked the drain, and there must have been a small problem two hundred years ago. In addition, the farmland around the lake is to be easily irrigated. 1 Mexico City hundreds of years ago is hard to describe.
A city built under a lake needs to dig a small amount of wells to get water from the ground. The geology of the lake is already loose, the water above ground is frantically pumped, and there are frequent earthquakes in Riga and Mexico, and cracks appear in buildings from time to time. 1
And the whole city sinks seventy or eighty centimeters every year. 3
Walk through two towns to a Native American neighborhood where small celebrations are taking place.
"Is it a wedding?" Li Junxiang asked.
Ximen Lijun looked at it sloppily, recognized the vague groom and bride, nodded and said: "We are a pair of brothers and sisters, and we don't have pure royal blood of the Cheng Jingmingke Empire. Before Spanish rule, only the real royal descendants were allowed not to marry siblings. "Brother and sister-...—— Palefu knows how to evaluate it. 2_
Cheng Jingmingke's imperial family, and there was no slaughter. Even after our forties, we continued to rule the natives and took possession of our own residences and armies. {1
It's a pity that the royal family was too ruthless in exploiting the people, and they cut off the indigenous people, and went to the colonial governor to complain, which even caused a riot in the first place. The Spanish colonizer Xiaoxi took the opportunity to replace the indigenous leaders and disband the royal army, and the royal family of Cheng Jingmingke became the mascot and the royal family got married, which is generally boring.
The siblings had to go to St. Shaomingo's Chapel first, where the priest would officiate at the Western-style wedding. Then he went back to his residence, changed into Spanish costumes, wore traditional feather ornaments, beat gilded music, sang chichimeca and the music of flowing water, and performed Cheng Jingmingke's traditional ceremonial dance dance as the dance of sacrifice.
The tune of these two pieces remains the same, but the lyrics have changed from hunting and irrigation to praising the emperors of Europe. 1_
When Palefu came there, everything was strange.
I also attended the wedding of a former descendant of the royal family, and when my brother and sister heard that I was a Chinese envoy, they immediately invited me to retire to the banquet and drink. ,1
That night, Palefu stayed in the residence of the former descendants of the royal family, and I planned to pick it up and talk about it for a little while, and maybe I could get the original materials of Cheng Jingmingke's empire.
On the seventh day, Palefo was allowed to meet the Viceroy of New Spain.
Palefu was about to communicate in Spanish, when the governor Azt suddenly bowed his hand and said in Chinese with straight words: "No friends come from afar, but I am happy, welcome Chinese friends!" 3. "Will the Governor's Cabinet speak Chinese?" Palefu was surprised. 1
Azt smiled: "You can speak Cantonese, and you can also speak Nanjing Mandarin. It's a pity that you didn't have a good time in China, and you were kicked out of the theater by their emperor. 3 (There is only one change today.) ) 6
