(Recently, the audit has been strict)

As a foreign affairs elder, Ashin selected more than 30 good seedlings after the first public examination, and in the past two years, he has also accepted 137 people with outstanding grades and temperament.

Coupled with the apprentices brought out before, the current talent in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is not too tight, even if the consulates in various places send two staff commissioners to take charge, the manpower of the entire Ministry of Foreign Affairs is still sufficient.

Their responsibilities and the content they have to learn are also relatively small, except for language and linguistics, various legal provisions and the relevant national conditions of each country.

The creed they have to abide by is that the interests of the country are above all else, and they must defend the fundamental interests of the country to the death at all times.

In the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, as long as they have undergone a year of training and training, almost all of them can become masters of tai chi, and all kinds of high-sounding words and sayings are actually full of words, and even how to compile the manuscript, there is a whole set of things to learn.

They are dealing with the ancient feudal state according to modern standards. In their eyes, there is no morality at all, only interests!

It's like dealing with Daming, no matter how much red tape Daming has, they don't care, they only have the ultimate benefit in their eyes.

After this notion was instilled, these diplomats were almost always brutal and tough, and some foreign envoys could even order local authorities.

The local government often holds the mentality that more things are better than less, and often compromises with the people.

This makes the envoys have a very large space to operate.

Under the teaching of Ashin and under the guidance of Yan Zheng's philosophy, many people created the Eastern Qin-style foreign art.

Last year, there were several people who were rated as "Top Ten Youths" by the government.

Lan Xiaofeng is one of them, and he is also the proud son of Ah Xin's subordinates. He has traveled to many countries with Ashin, and his own cultural level is not low, and the important thing is that he is good-looking.

For a foreign envoy, if the image and temperament are outstanding, the advantage is very great, and Lan Xiaofeng naturally gains importance.

When Ashin interviewed him and told him that the government had a mission, but there was a certain risk.

He immediately responded with righteous words, saying that even if he died in another country, he would extend the interests of Eastern Qin there!

Ashin was quite moved, and directly took out the letter of appointment, made him the chief envoy, and took twelve officials of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to go to Nanyang with the fleet to implement the resolution of the national government.

……

The seventh year of China, August 23.

The fleet of the Eastern Qin envoy to the South Seas set sail at Yangang.

The main envoy is Lan Xiaofeng, and the deputy envoy is Shang Xiaochun, with 12 interns from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, five students from the Department of Geology, and five students from the Department of Chemistry.

The commander-in-chief of this fleet is Li Xiaohei, and the fleet has a total of eight Long March-class ships and four steamers.

All the ships were in full artillery and full firepower, and they also carried a battalion of land forces, which were ready to strike at the enemy's ports at any time.

At the beginning of the envoy, Lan Xiaofeng stood at the bow of the boat, looking at the huge sail that covered the sky and the sun, and couldn't help but feel good.

His idol is Zhang Yi, a strategy that is easy to say, but in fact it is extremely thrilling.

But Zhang Yi can often use the ingenuity of four or two to move thousands of pounds, use interests to communicate with various countries, and use the contradictions of various countries to break them one by one!

The confrontation has also become the most magnificent diplomatic struggle in history.

Although the current Eastern Qin is simpler than the external environment faced by the Qin State at that time, the stage is also big enough!

To be able to win a country with a mouth, to coerce with the power of the country, to sit and watch a small country be respectful like a beggar, the biggest pleasure in this life!

Lan Xiaofeng stood with his hands in his hands, smiling at the horizon in the distance.

Deputy envoy Shang Xiaochun and the rest of the interns stood aside, a full fourteen beautiful men, and the few female students who accompanied them blushed.

They had long heard that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs only needed boys, and as long as there were boys who were outstanding, and when they saw it today, it was true!

Especially Lan Xiaofeng, with a pair of Danfeng eyes and a pair of sword eyebrows, looks gentle and elegant, and has a sense of perseverance and arrogance in it.

When they saw Lan Xiaofeng leaning on the side of the boat, looking at the sea with their eyebrows twisted, several female students laughed and discussed.

The deputy envoy Shang Xiaochun quipped when he heard this: "Brother Lan, do you want to inform these people of the news that you have a family?" ”

Lan Xiaofeng glanced back, as if he had gotten used to it.

"A few girls are ignorant, how can they judge people by their appearance? The last thing I want to hear in my life is that someone says that I became a director because of my looks! ”

"Isn't it?" Shang Xiaochun asked rhetorically.

Lan Xiaofeng glanced at him, pointed to his face and said, "I can have today, is it because of this face?" No! Is it on my own strength? ”

Turning his head, he sighed again: "I really don't understand the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, why there is a good image and temperament of the regulations!" ”

"Of course, I'm afraid of embarrassing the country! If every diplomat is obscene, how do you let outsiders think of my Huaxia Kingdom? ”

"I'm still afraid of losing face?" Lan Xiaofeng said righteously: "The things that our Ministry of Foreign Affairs has done are everywhere to bully the small and be shameless!" Could it be that a change of face can make the opponent more willing to sign a peace treaty? ”

"At least...... When negotiating, people will be in a better mood! Shang Xiaochun smiled, "Then how are you going to coerce the small Nanyang country this time?" ”

"Without him, it's just a dog bone and a stick!"

Both of them were jolting broadside.

……

Two days later, the ship sailed to the city of Songzhou (Manila) in Luzon.

Since the announcement of the trade declaration, there have been a lot fewer ships coming here, and almost only ships from the Ming Dynasty and a few other small countries in the South Seas can dock.

Although it had a certain negative impact on Luzon's commerce and trade, it did not have much impact on the development of Luzon.

The governor of Luzon did not come forward to them, but only sent the mayor of Songzhou to the port to be responsible for the reception.

After a little understanding of the situation, it was learned that the Governor had launched another large-scale sweep, this time targeting a wider area, to open up water transportation between Songzhou City and Bangui Port.

As long as the banks of the only major river in the northern island of Luzon are cleared, then the city of Songzhou and the port of Bangui can be communicated by land and then by water.

After Lan Xiaofeng heard the news, he couldn't help but sigh at the rapid development of Luzon, and felt that if there were a few more years, this side would definitely be as prosperous as Eastern Qin.

After a little replenishment, the fleet set sail again on the second day, and seven days later, arrived at the old port, the first destination of the trip!

The water system of the old port is very developed, and it can be called a water city.

With the help of the Eastern Qin, a fortress has been built here, which is also built at the confluence of the three rivers, and is like a horn from the original old city.

When Shi Xinghao learned that the Eastern Qin delegation had arrived, he almost jumped up with joy.

Accompanied by Lin Yucheng, together with the soldiers and civilians of the old port, Hou greeted the envoys of the Eastern Qin Dynasty at the wharf.

With more than a dozen gun salutes fired, the flagship, under the traction of the steamer, slowly entered the mooring.

The old port has been miserable in recent years, and almost half of the territory in the early Ming Dynasty has been encroached upon by the Majapahit.

Shi Xinghao only dared to stay in the port area with a complicated water system, and after having a fortress, he finally slept peacefully for a few days.

When he saw the Eastern Qin mission, dressed in black, coming off the ship, he expressed great tolerance for these strange costumes.

As soon as they met, he knelt down straight and said: "Minister, Shi Xinghao, the old port consolation envoy, meet the angel of the kingdom!" ”

Lan Xiaofeng helped him up with a smile and said, "Mr. Shi, we don't want to do this in Dongqin!" ”

As he spoke, he took out a letter of appointment and announced: "My Huaxia monarch has said that the new old port special city, from now on, the old port will be assigned to my Eastern Qin, and the military and civilians on it will take care of themselves and do not need to pay taxes!" Trade with Dongqin, you can enjoy the domestic tax rate! From now on, the old port of Daming will be abolished. All the rules and regulations and laws of our Dongqin are in effect in the old port! ”

Shi Xinghao was stunned for a moment and hurriedly took the appointment letter.

According to this letter of appointment, he will become the Governor of the Old Port, and the mayor of the Old Port will be appointed by the State Government, and he will be able to take charge of the rest of the matters except for some day-to-day administrative arrangements.

"In this way, the king agrees that our old port has become the territory of China? That...... I heard that the government will immigrate to invest in every place......"

Lan Xiaofeng hurriedly interrupted: "Mr. Shi, you are autonomous!" The government means that we will be a family from now on, but what about it...... The territory of the national government is a bit large, the population is a little small, in addition to the economy and trade, I am afraid that other favors will not be able to help! ”

Lin Yucheng stepped on Shi Xinghao's foot, and hurriedly arched his hand: "Xie Jun is on Longen!" ”

Shi Xinghao was a little stunned and thanked him, which was similar to what he thought, but it was a little different!

"Mr. Shi can rest assured that as long as there is a variety of grain in the old port, it will be enough to supply Malacca and supply in the future! The king has ordered the establishment of a naval supply port in the old port, as long as there are warships coming and going, the trade in this place will gradually develop! ”

After all, the geographical location of the Old Port is too weak, and after the possession of Malacca, it is a loss and unwise to focus on the development of this place.
