This objection from Gasper undoubtedly represents the attitude of all missionaries.

They finally achieved great results in the Ming Dynasty, especially here, which is obviously easier to preach. You should know that Japan, which they regarded as a successful case, only has one thousand substantial believers, but in Haojing, there are more than one hundred

It's a person.

Lin Ran saw the reactions of these missionaries, spat a mouthful of black tea, and then said calmly to Gaspar: "Godfather of Gaspar, County Magistrate Li's plan is actually not good or not, but the essence is

A good plan to help Xiangshan City!" Seeing Gaspar talking, he waved his hand to stop him and said, "Since that's the case, then you can listen to the plan of County Chief Liu!"

"I agree with Lord Lin's words. County Magistrate Li's plan is indeed feasible, but this county magistrate believes that there is a better way!" County magistrate Liu kept a secret and then continued: "Xiangshan Wharf is far inferior to that of the Xiangshan Wharf."

Haojing Wharf, I think it would be better to move Xiangshan City to Haojing by locking the lockdown of Haojing and vigorously develop Xiangshan City with the advantages of Haojing Wharf!"

Then, Liu County Magistrate looked at Gasper and other missionaries and said with a smile: "If Xiangshan City is built in Haojing, the population of Xiangshan City will be at least 30,000 to 40,000. This is the missionary of the godfather.

Work will definitely be of great benefit!”

this……

After hearing this plan, many missionaries were immediately moved. There are many factors that need to be considered for missionary work, but they cannot be separated from the mass base. The more people there are, it will undoubtedly be more helpful for missionary work.

Especially for the first lock-up plan, this plan is undoubtedly extremely superior. Not only did their missionary achievements not be damaged, but more people from the Ming Dynasty would settle here, which was undoubtedly a great benefit to their missionary work.

At this point, almost no missionary did not support the second plan.

"Sir, isn't this plan... better? I think the second plan should be adopted!" Although Gaspar knew that the problem would not be so simple, he couldn't help but say.

Lin Ran spat with a mouthful of black tea and then explained seriously: "If you choose the second plan, Xiangshan will build a new city here in Haojing, which will require a considerable amount of money!"

When it comes to this point, Gaspar and others are not stupid again and exchange a glance with each other. It turns out that this demon is asking for money.

Lin Ran knew that the time was not yet, so he continued: "You have been to Xiangshan City and you should know that the county government is very poor. They will definitely not be able to build a new city, and the Guangzhou government government government cannot pay the full amount."

After a pause, he continued, "But I wonder if you can support it financially! We will not let you suffer any losses, and will support your missionary work here with greater strength. How about it?"

Gaspar and others naturally did not think that Lin Ran was asking them for help, and the scene he had just been in the meeting square was still vivid in my mind.

Once they annoyed the demon, the demon might really adopt the first plan, and their achievements in Haojing will be lost. Even if the demon chooses the second plan, they will not want to continue here.

Mission.

Obviously, it is impossible for this demon to refuse this plan. However, this demon also gave out bait. Once they obediently support the construction of the city, their missionary work will be supported.

"Mr. Lin, please allow me to discuss with you!" Gaspar thought for a while, then bowed and asked.

Lin Ran knew that this was not a decision that Gasper could make easily, or a decision to the deputy director of Guangdong Maritime Department Chen Jing nodded gently. Chen Jing stepped forward and led Gasper and others to the side hall.

.

When officials such as Li Jialiang and others watched the situation develop here, they couldn't help feeling nervous. However, watching Lin Ran sit there and continue to use tea, they were still admirable.

Not long after, Gaspar and other missionaries came back and did not answer Lin Ran's question positively, but solemnly asked: "Mr. Lin, do you really support us in preaching here?"

Lin Ran snorted coldly and said to them dissatisfiedly: "From last year to now, who do you think is indulging you to preach here? Look at other senior officials in Guangdong, they just issued a ban on foreigners from entering Guangzhou City.

Which senior official is more friendly to you than our government?”

History has not changed. Guangdong officials issued a ban on foreigners entering the city at the beginning of this year, and naturally they also placed Gasper and other missionaries outside the city.

this……

Gaspar and others were also speechless. Although Lin Ran forced them to kneel down just now and now forced them to pay for helping build Xiangshan City, they did not stop them from preaching here from beginning to end.

In this way, Lin Ran is undoubtedly a better official based on the results of missionary results.

A female missionary said bravely: "Mr. Lin, if you are really friendly to us, now you are the governor of Guangzhou. Can you lift this ban?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the other missionaries immediately looked at Lin Ran, with a hint of desire in their eyes.

Lin Ran looked at the hot-bodied female missionary and gave a very definite answer: "Of course this is OK! But this mansion cannot just eliminate these resistances for you. It depends on whether your support for the construction of the city is worth it.

This is what our house does!"

This is not to deceive these missionaries. As long as these missionaries really support the construction of Xiangshan City, he does not mind lifting the ban and does not think that foreigners can cause any harm to enter Guangzhou City.

Gaspar and others were obviously satisfied with Lin Ran's statement. After another exchange, Gaspar spoke: "Dear Lord Lin, for our friendship, we are willing to provide 20,000 yuan.

Two silvers build the city!”

ah?

When Li Jialiang and Xiangshan officials heard this number, they seemed to be unable to believe their ears. Although they knew that they wanted to maintain their majesty, they still couldn't hide their surprise.

With this amount, even if the Guangzhou government office does not withdraw money, a brick city can be built. After all, laborers do not need money, and their main expenses are materials and food expenses.

As soon as he thought about this, he had to look at Lin Ran admirably. He forced these missionaries to kneel down in the square, and now he asked them to give them 20,000 or 20,000 silver to build the city. This is really amazing.

Lin Ran kept calm and continued to use tea, not much of an accident with this number. After all, these missionaries have a transcendent status and have many wealthy believers. They monopolized the "Haojing-Japan" route here.

Twenty thousand taels are simply drizzle.

Sometimes, he really wanted to regain the Japanese route from the Portuguese and directly get a large amount of Japanese silver. However, as the situation of the Japanese invasion in Jiangsu and Zhejiang became more and more intense, he had to wisely give up this idea.

In this officialdom, some of the forbidden zones cannot be easily touched, especially he has the dream of a powerful minister of the Ming Dynasty.

Lin Ran looked up at the missionaries and nodded lightly and said, "Okay! That's the matter, I will try my best to support you in preaching here!"

"Where is that ban?" As soon as the words were finished, the hot-shaped female missionary asked.

Gaspar didn't want to anger the demon, so he immediately shouted and said, "Branchi, don't be rude!"

Lin Ran was a little surprised and looked up at the female missionary named Blanche. Although her figure was hidden in a black robe, she could not hide her hot figure, especially her chest and hips, and that

Zhang's fair and charming face seemed to be in his early twenties. Facing those stubborn eyes, he finally smiled and said, "I will help you cancel the ban so that you can come to Guangzhou City at any time. Bu is also welcome.

Miss Lanqi can come to visit our residence!"

"Thank you, Lord Cheryn!" Gaspar immediately expressed gratitude when he heard this. Although this seemed insignificant little thing, it was undoubtedly a great news for their missionaries.
