Tomorrow - v5 Chapter 155
The first and fifth chapters Yun Zhao wants to drink coffee
What Zhang Liang said is correct.
As far as Daming is concerned, the top priority is the development of new science.
On the old road of people’s livelihood, after thousands of years of continuous development, it has developed to the extreme.
Whether it is industry and commerce, agriculture and animal husbandry, or primitive service industries, the Chinese nation has indeed reached its peak. In fact, these things have basically reached its peak during the Song Dynasty. Later, because of the existence of the Meng Yuan, it reversed. many years.
If the old barriers cannot be broken, the new world will not come.
Therefore, Yun Zhao wanted to give Daming a head start when new disciplines were just emerging.
As long as you get ahead of any technical things, you will get ahead of it step by step in the future. This is related to the great cause of the future. Anyone who wants to hinder Yun Zhao’s plan can be eliminated.
Just like Alexander VII!
Just a little pope, kill, kill, Yun Zhao will not have the useless emotion of guilt.
In his eyes, one Descartes is worth him to kill ten popes.
Obviously, Mr. Descartes did not have this kind of self-consciousness. He faintly felt that the death of the Pope would not be so simple, and it could not even be done by the Ottoman Emperor. This was very illogical.
Assassination is actually a tacit understanding among high-ranking nobles…Because, today, the Pope was assassinated, so in a short time, there will be various assassinations against the Ottoman emperor.
Moreover, in recent years, the Ottomans have stabilized a lot. The current Ottoman emperor is not a talented person, and he can’t even be called a ruler of success. Basically, he is a mediocre.
Killing the pope at this time can easily cause the European princes to launch a new crusade.
This is definitely not something that the Ottoman emperor can bear.
The death of the pope seems to be of great benefit to the Roman princes, as well as France, Britain, Spain and other countries. Before a new pope is elected, these countries can no longer consider religious factors and political constraints in a short time. .
Therefore, Mr. Descartes thought that many people wanted to kill the Pope, but the Ottoman Emperor was the one who least wanted to kill the Pope.
In fact, Mr. Descartes’ thinking is correct, but he only missed the value of himself and the leaders of this group of new disciplines.
He thought that his group was not as valuable as the Pope.
What he didn’t know was that if he didn’t go to Daming this time, this kind of killing would be impossible to stop.
The battleship Huashan waited for another ten days in the port of Marseille, so another 119 people came on the ship, so that the ship was overcrowded. The captain gave an order and all the sailors and the soldiers vacated themselves. The cabins are given to these distinguished guests.
They themselves moved into the dull and damp bottom compartment.
After the ship was full, the Huashan left the port of Marseille.
On the third day after the Huashan left the port of Marseille, the chief referee of the Spanish Inquisition ruled that Mr. Descartes was heresy…
The officials of Daming spared no effort in facilitating Mr. Descartes to defect to Daming, and they showed the power of the team to the fullest. At this moment, even if Mr. Descartes regretted it, he had no retreat.
The huge battleship Huashan cut waves on the sea, giving little Descartes a new feeling. He pointed to the seagulls flying on the sea and asked Zhang Liang.
“Teacher, can I imagine arriving in Daming’s life now?”
Zhang Liang smiled and said: “Naturally, I can guarantee that your life in Daming is more than ten times better than your fantasy life.”
“Can I travel?”
“Of course you can, but you are a student of Yushan Academy. You have to accept the assessment first. Once the assessment is over, you have to leave the academy and go wherever you want to go, and you don’t have to spend your own money.”
“I heard that Chang’an is a city that never sleeps. Where can people have fun all night?”
“Yes, where there are countless delicious foods, and singing and dancing that can’t be seen enough, Chang’an City is a city that never sleeps when the lights are on.”
“Can I go?”
“Of course you can, but you have to be careful, don’t overplay, don’t miss the last train back to the academy.”
“Teacher, you said that you need to grab a meal in the college? Why don’t they cook more?”
“The food is sufficient, everyone can eat very full, but I don’t know when it starts, everyone likes to be the first to get food, and it becomes a tradition in the end.
However, think about it, the bell for dinner rang, and the appearance of thousands of people rushing to the cafeteria with their lunch boxes is still very spectacular. “
“Oh, so, it seems that I need to go in too.”
“It is necessary. The person who eats first will take away the essence of the food.”
“Teacher, I want to compete for the national character qualification.”
“There is no need to be shy, this is a good thing. If you think you are very knowledgeable, you can participate. Of course, besides the knowledge of the competition, martial arts is also an important factor. You need one person to defeat a group of people. I said a group of people. There are at least forty-nine!”
“Teacher, your knowledge is also very profound, why didn’t you get the honor of the Chinese character?”
Zhang Liang sucked in a cold breath like a toothache: “This is a tragic story about the sadness of those who saw it, and the tears of those who heard it…”
“I must get the national character honor.”
“Hahaha, you have a chance, Descartes, I hope I will call you Descartes Guo in the future!”
Zhang Liang has said the same conversation many times these days.
Also explained countless times.
After spending a long time with the Daming soldiers, they will find that they are a group of very polite people. People who were originally worried, their emotions finally slowly eased down.
However, Zhang Liang still hated it, because until now, only Mr. Descartes has not asked about his treatment after arriving in Daming.
On the way, the Huashan warship defeated many pirates, including those with black beard, yellow beard, and red beard.
Captain Lai Dingcheng’s hands were very dark.
Along the way, the artillery windows were closed to lure those crazy pirates to robbery, and the robbers were killed along the way. From time to time, the boats were put down and small teams were sent to clean up the pirate ships, collecting property and supplies at the same time.
This method is very effective. When the pirates saw a huge merchant ship traveling alone on the sea, many pirates wanted to try their luck. After chasing it, the pirates disappeared at sea forever.
After doing this, Lai Dingcheng originally commanded a ship. After passing the Cape of Good Hope Devil Sea, one of his ships has become a small fleet with six schooners.
Around the Cape of Good Hope, the fleet walked slowly north along the African coastline.
Descartes, who hadn’t left the cabin for a long time, came to the deck with his cane.
He first looked at the azure blue sea and saw that Lai Dingcheng was studying a drawing with Zhang Liang, and he came over curiously, because he discovered that the two men were studying the map of Africa.
Mr. Descartes looked at the map of Africa in their hands and whispered: “Are you also going to capture black slaves?”
Zhang Liang smiled and said, “Mr. Descartes, Daming never captures slaves or sells slaves.”
Mr. Descartes looked at Zhang Liang and said: “As far as I know, Portugal and Spain have embarked on the path of colonial expansion. Just last year, Britain, France, and the Netherlands also began to capture black slaves. They thought this was a profitable one. Business.
What, isn’t the Emperor Ming Dynasty interested in this kind of business? “
Lai Dingcheng said sternly: “Your Excellency, if the Daming Navy Fleet is allowed to do such a thing, I think it will be a humiliation to us soldiers.”
Mr. Descartes looked at Lai Dingcheng with admiration: “You are an upright person.”
Lai Dingcheng said: “When your Excellency arrives at Daming, you will know that our Emperor is even more upright.”
Descartes said: “I am looking forward to it, but what do you do with the map of Africa?”
Lai Dingcheng said: “We agree that the European division of the world is unscientific.”
“Oh? Why, as far as I know, the division of Europe, Asia, Africa, South America, and North America is very realistic.”
Descartes hated those slave traders, but he still valued geographical naming rights.
Lai Dingcheng said: “The main reason is that this division is very unfair to my Ming. We are the center of this world. Since ancient times, we have been China, a central country, a well-centralized country, but it is arranged in Asia. This is right. Humiliation of our Majesty and Daming.
They should seek our majesty’s opinion when formulating such terms. “
Descartes was not angry, but smiled and said, “What do you think should be changed?”
Lai Dingcheng said: “It’s very convenient. Just change Asia to Zhongzhou, then add Yaozhou and Antarctica. This way, the map will be very complete. When your Excellency arrives in Daming, you should be able to see such a world map. “
Mr. Descartes nodded and left the deck, looking sad.
Zhang Liang watched Mr. Descartes leave and nodded secretly. He felt that Lai Dingcheng used this method to slowly tell Mr. Descartes a real Da Ming, there is only good, no harm.
Mr. Descartes, who returned to the cabin, stood behind Little Descartes and watched him do the problem. After Little Descartes finally solved the problem, Mr. Descartes handed Little Descartes a cup of tea ceremony: “Ming people have changed. The determination of the world.”
Little Descartes said: “How did you know?”
Mr. Descartes told his grandson what had just happened.
Little Descartes laughed and said: “They discovered Yaozhou~www.mtlnovel.com~ they discovered Antarctica. In order to make the world map look more symmetrical, using Asia as the center of the world map, I thought it was nothing.”
Mr. Descartes frowned slightly, and said to little Descartes: “You can follow that Mr. Zhang Liang to learn, but I don’t allow you to participate in the slave trade. This is an extremely dishonorable behavior. Anyone with a conscience. Shouldn’t be involved.”
Little Descartes said: “As far as I know, the Ming people never participate in such things as the trafficking of slaves.”
Mr. Descartes sighed: “They are studying the map of Africa. I saw that they drew a circle in Ethiopia. It seems that this time, their target is Ethiopia.”
Little Descartes couldn’t help but laugh when he heard his grandfather say this. He held his grandfather’s hand and said, “Grandfather, they are going to Ethiopia this time, but not for slave trade, but to make a fortune with the emperor of Ethiopia. business.”
“What kind of business? I don’t think the poor people have anything worthy of their exchange.”
“Coffee, grandfather, the teacher has already told me that I also want to participate in this transaction.”
