Chapter 1952: The Last Chance
Although Ibrahim Pasha was incredible and even ridiculous about Ye Chunqiu's recruitment of him at first, he agreed in his heart that Ye Chunqiu was an amazing person.
To be honest, what really made Ibrahim Pasha excited was that sentence: King Lu needed him, so Ibrahim Pasha was unique to King Lu.
Although he and the Sultan grew up together, and even if the Sultan was concerned about Ibrahim Pasha, on the surface, this was a very gratitude, but Ibrahim Pasha was also very clear. Just as Ye Chunqiu said, there were too many people like him in the Ottoman court. It didn't matter if the Sultan appoints anyone, and he couldn't guarantee whether he would one day fall into danger due to certain problems.
Apart from this old love, he knew very well that he was not unique in the Sultan's heart.
And this... is his biggest and fatal hidden danger.
Ibrahim Pasha is a very smart man. How could a person who can preserve himself in the cruel Ottoman court and make good relationships with the Sultan be unwise?
At this moment, he actually fell into deep thought, his expression becoming more and more calm.
After Ye Chunqiu left the bow, he walked back to his cabin.
In fact, he knew that Ibrahim Pasha would be moved because he had checked the brain and knew very well what Ibrahim Pasha would end.
At first, he was the chief guard of the bedroom, and then he soon became the first minister of the Sultan, that is, the prime minister. In the history of the Ottoman, he could be regarded as a famous prime minister. He made a lot of contributions to assisting the Sultan, but soon, because of his jealousy, he was finally slandered by others and eventually killed by the Sultan.
Ye Chunqiu believes that the smart Ibrahim Pasha may also think of it. As a minister, Ibrahim Pasha must be very aware of being a minister. Since he has this enlightenment, Ye Chunqiu will not worry that he will not be shaken.
Although Ye Chunqiu also felt that his behavior seemed a bit reckless and could even be described as reckless, at this time he said these words to Ibrahim Pasha, in a sense, were actually showing his confidence to Ibrahim Pasha.
People like Ibrahim Pasha are both cunning and extremely smart. Instead, using this kind of straightforward approach to deal with such people is the most effective, because no matter what method you use, it may make him feel suspicious. He will judge whether you are using any method to deceive him and suspect your intentions.
On the contrary, now, I tell him directly what he needs and what he can give him. There are fewer unnecessary guesses here, making it easier to communicate.
The fleet passed by calmly on the sea surface, and had already traveled westward, crossing half of the Black Sea. Along the way, Ye Chunqiu could see many ports along the coast. After all, these were not sea boats, so the fleet was just moving along the coastline. Ye Chunqiu could see the Ottoman style at this time.
This great empire spanning three continents is not even under the Ming Dynasty, especially ports and ships, in this stable Black Sea, with many more.
Sometimes, Ye Chunqiu couldn't help but feel a little jealous of the people here.
You should know that in the Ming Dynasty, going to sea is always a very high risk, so the maritime trade must either use the power of the whole country to create a huge fleet to go on missions, or they can only rely on a small number of people who are not afraid of death to go to sea.
But here, going to sea has become a very easy thing, because their estuaries are either the Mediterranean or the Black Sea. The biggest feature of these two seas is that they are almost surrounded by land, and there are no strong winds and waves on the sea surface, and there are no so-called rough waves. Therefore, the Franchise people and the Ottomans have learned to make some simple ships, go into the sea for operation, transportation, or communicate with each other thousands of years ago.
Ye Chunqiu suddenly thought of something, and he couldn't help but murmur: "For the Ming Dynasty, this ocean is going to play the big boss when entering the game. If you don't have enough strength, not enough strong sea boats, and not use enough materials, the people will be gambling when they go into the sea. But there is a novice village for you to practice. Start with a simple ship, it doesn't matter anyway, because the sea is equivalent to half an inner lake. Even if there are some bumps, ordinary ships can barely deal with it. This is enough to give them a long time to taste the sweetness from the sea. When they taste the sweetness and their technology has improved, they can walk out of the Black Sea and the Mediterranean and face the real vast ocean."
If there was an inland sea in the Ming Dynasty, how could the court dig a canal to maintain a huge canal system? Once the shipping is used, countless people would devote themselves to shipbuilding and living in the sea. Perhaps... When everyone is familiar with the ocean and does not have as much fear of the future, shipbuilding technology is a long way to go, and countless people know the ocean well, Ye Chunqiu could imagine that history would be a different look.
Just two days later, Istanbul was already looking at me from afar, and at this time, under Ye Chunqiu's expectation, Ibrahim Pasha finally came to the door.
Ibrahim Pasha's face was very bad and she looked very tired.
Obviously, he was struggling in his heart. In fact, he had been thinking for a long time in the past two days. He knew very well that time could not allow him to hesitate all the time. Once he arrived in Istanbul, he would definitely not be able to continue to have any secret time with Ye Chunqiu.
But what was before him was a problem that could change his life.
In the past two days, as long as he closed his eyes, he couldn't help but think of the train on the grassland roaring forward, and countless steels, like hens laying eggs, were continuously transported from the chimney houses.
Until now, he was still shocked by such a scene. He could not even imagine how much wealth this strange civilization had created.
These things have always been in his mind, and even made him insomnia for two days.
For him, today is his last chance. If one day comes, when Ye Chunqiu arrives in Istanbul, his chance will no longer exist.
