"Is this the capital of the Ming Empire?"

"It's so surprising. I thought it would be impossible to see such a scene in the conservative East."

"The Chinese have opened the door to the country. They were once the most civilized country in the world. Now they have opened the door to the country again. I think their demands for interests will cause headaches for many European countries."

On another ship.

They are the envoys from various European countries who came with Archduke Lin's return fleet.

There was Sir George Staunton, the British Consul General in the East, Rafael Bregorat, the Spanish Ambassador, Nicholas Huntington, the consul sent from the American Embassy in Paris, and Vasily the Russian diplomat from the Tsarist Russian Embassy in Madrid.

.Lavrov.

Therefore, the Ming Dynasty can now hold high the banner of free trade.

If these European countries only asked Ming Dynasty to open their markets.

Although the Ming Dynasty is not afraid of a single European country.

And this is a civilization that has lasted for thousands of years. They once stood in the world at the same time as the ancient Roman Empire.

On the basis of the traditional export commodities of the Central Empire, the medicines (garlic medicine) exported by the Ming Empire now also want to occupy the European market.

Together they boarded a four-wheeled carriage drawn by two draft horses.

"This matter can be discussed. Unless European countries can also completely liberalize their markets, there will be no need to discuss it!"

Including a series of sultanates on the Malay Peninsula, two regimes in the north and south of Annan, Siam, Vientiane, Chiang Mai, Champasak, Cambodia and other countries, none of which have diplomatic authority.

They usually have two styles of dealing with countries outside of Europe: if they can't defeat them militarily, they can trade; if they can't defeat them, they can open their doors, open their doors, burn, kill, loot, and build colonies.

The Ming Empire is now the country with the largest export trade in the world.

Everyone knows that when the Ming Dynasty opened China's door.

Now, after receiving the protection of the Ming Dynasty, their market has also been closed to Europeans.

The fleet passed through Songjiang Prefecture, Changzhou Prefecture, and Zhenjiang Prefecture.

Of course.

at the same time.

After completing the Renaissance, Europa was able to continue to lead in science and technology, and it was definitely not due to luck.

Dealing with the Ming Empire.

As soon as the boat docked, Grand Duke Lin immediately stepped off the boat, took three steps and two steps at a time, and knelt on one knee in front of Zhu Daohua.

Finally, escorted by several Ming Dynasty Yangtze River defense ships, they arrived at Yingtianfu Jiangning Port.

Because according to the regulations of the Ming Empire: vassal states have no diplomatic rights!

That is to say.

"The emperor recovered the south in three years, which is indeed a great blessing for China!"

"Hurry up, Grand Duke. We have not seen each other for three years. Did you ever think that we would see you again at Yingtian Mansion?"

Grand Duke Lin smiled and said: "What the Emperor said is that the European countries have been fighting for hundreds of years, and it is impossible to unite. We cannot threaten the core interests of most European countries, and we cannot compete with a few European countries.

enemies, maybe some countries will still be optimistic about the results."

There is no real free trade in this era.

That is, with the entire East.

The market must be opened.

The entire South Asian countries that claimed vassal status under the Ming Empire.

But if there is an alliance in Europe against Ming Dynasty.

"An alliance is of no benefit to Ming. The French cannot help us, and an alliance will reduce Ming's diplomatic flexibility. We can seek to make good friends with one or two countries in Europe, but we will not form an alliance."

To some extent.

Before Zhu Daohua got the south.

Grand Duke Lin was stunned when he heard this, and then nodded: "That's right, there has never been a situation in Europe where the monarch of a country was tried by the rebellious people."

Grand Duke Lin said with emotion.

They were vassals of the Ming Empire and a peripheral country in the Chinese civilization circle protected by the central dynasty.

Because the current industrial production capacity of Ming Dynasty is comparable to that of any European country.

You want to fight

Honestly.

Therefore, a large part of his Europa policy is that on the one hand, he cannot get involved in the war between Europeans, and on the other hand, he must try his best to avoid the situation where the entire Europe is united because of the Ming Dynasty.

In this era, Grand Duke Lin was considered a very rare diplomatic talent in the Ming Dynasty.

It is impossible for him to agree to an open market.

"So the old European aristocrats are afraid, and they want to collectively oppose France." Zhu Daohua said, "The Ming Dynasty does not need to express its attitude on this matter."

Zhu Daohua patted Grand Duke Lin on the shoulder: "It is impossible for Europa to unite unless they have a life-or-death enemy. We should not do such a thankless thing."

To some extent.

This is also the reason why Zhu Daohua values ​​Grand Duke Lin so much.

But now everyone can see clearly that it may be difficult for the Qing Empire to gain much advantage in the war with the Ming Empire.

"Debating whether to kill Louis XVI?"

For example, the Ming Dynasty is now subject to a trade blockade by the British. The merchant ships of the Ming Dynasty cannot go to the British colonies in India, but the British only occupy about half of India. Therefore, without the Ming Dynasty and the British completely breaking up, the Ming Dynasty

It is possible to trade with the Maratha League, Mughal Empire, Fetal Pu'er Kingdom, Kalat Khanate, Durrani Kingdom and other countries.

However, generally speaking, this kind of etiquette is quite solemn and is basically not needed in daily life. You only need to bow your hands.

And now Rome in the West has disappeared.

"This is our principle. We do not seek to form an alliance with any European country. Our European policy remains flexible and can be adjusted according to our own needs."

"And this time, some countries may jointly put pressure on Ming Dynasty and prepare to unite to ask Ming Dynasty to abolish the blockade of Western merchant ships in the Strait of Malacca."

Therefore, these countries from the European civilization circle know very well that they are not just dealing with the Ming Empire.

"There is nothing to show off in defeating the Manchus. The key to the future lies in the competition between the East and the West!"

Whether the legal system of the Central Empire belongs to the Ming Dynasty still awaits the outcome of the war.

Dumping industrial products from Guangdong and Liangjiang to the whole world.

Zhu Daohua received it with a wave of his hand.

But it's different now.

In terms of trade, the Europeans had no way to establish an advantage over the Ming Dynasty.

According to etiquette, subjects only need to kneel on one knee when formally saluting the emperor.

For Europeans.

Zhu Daohua pulled Grand Duke Lin up.

Fortunately for them, Ming Dynasty was too far away from Europe. Otherwise, it would be uncertain who would fight whom.

But now we are facing the Ming Empire.

Therefore he needs diplomats who know enough about Europe.

The wildly wide Yangtze River waterway leads all the way to the west.

“How is the situation in France?”

Can't beat again and again.

This region even caused two world wars.

"My lord, long live Duke Lin's greetings to our emperor!"

The Eastern Central Empire still dominates the entire Eastern international order.

Even now, Ming Dynasty is half a step ahead of Europa in some key military technologies.

The military strength and potential of the Ming Empire were daunting to any European country.

Some only trade on private land.

"Louis XVI was imprisoned, and now the French National Convention is debating."
