Chapter 178 Business Road
Chen Mu didn't dislike the Changsheng Kiln treasures sent by Zou Yuanbiao. He liked them very much, and he couldn't bear to cover the box if he liked them.
But it's funny, instead of putting this set of items around him for use, he would rather sell them to Spain at a high price.
He can wait for Changsheng Official Kiln to send the second set to come and then use it for use.
Of course this is just his current idea, because he doesn't have a second set. Once he has it, he may want to sell the second set to the Roman priest and use the third set himself.
With the third set, Catherine of Valois and Ferdinand of Medici must be able to compete, and Chen Mu will also voluntarily withdraw.
The ministers of the Eastern Ocean were like wealthy slaves, with charcoal pens on the second floor of the yamen for a long time, and arranged all the figures who enjoyed the first echelon of European power and wealth, including King Philip of Spain, King Gregory Thirteen of Roman priests, Queen Mother of France, Catherine Catherine of the Florentine feudal lord Ferdinand.
The second echelon followed, including three bishops who had the right to compete for Caesar, four feudal lords, the Duke of Parma, the Duke of Alva in Spain, and others. As long as he could name it, he would all plan to sell one.
Yang Tingxiang took advantage of the rainy day to subdivided the productivity of dozens of newly built workshops around Mocheng and the production of military and guard immigrants to reclaim the farmland. From the upstairs, he saw Chen Mu at his desk outlined it. There were draft papers flying all over the ground, and he couldn't help but ask: "What is the Grand Marshal?"
"Count how much money the second child has."
For a moment, Yang Tingxiang's expression became extremely complicated, and he stuttered: "We, have our spies already know so much about Spain?"
"Of course not."
Chen Mu put down the pen and said: "His income is not easy to calculate, but it is easy to calculate from our trade, so he makes a difference."
"The cloisonne of Changsheng Official Kiln is very important in Europe. It can make most people unable to afford it, but if even Philip can't afford it, it will be bad. You must figure out a price that will make him accept and hurt."
European nobles were still very rich, especially liked to compare, and they didn't have much to compare, so they kept a painter, made a few fur coats, a hat with gems, and eight rings on their hands to show their wealth.
In this regard, the Dongyang Military Office has indeed created new ways to show off their wealth for them.
Not to mention others, just King Philip of Spain, the dining table on the Lisbon Palace is all filled with cups, plates, bottles, bowls and plates from Jingde Official Kiln. The bottom of the bowl is also printed with yellow circles and black backgrounds. In the plate, there are blue and white eagles made directly by craftsmen in Chen Mu's handwriting.
The knife, spoon, fork, and chopsticks were all made of seals made in the Beiyang Empire of the Ming Empire. There were twenty sets, and the only one in the world.
Even the long tables and chairs used for banquets were sent by Acosta to the sea. The masterminds of the East were made of fir trees. Philip liked the most. Because of this set of tables, chairs and tableware, Philip's trip back to Madrid from Lisbon last year was delayed for two months.
Because the table was too heavy and unlucky, he specially ordered people to build a carriage in Portugal and carry it wherever he went.
How do you say that? It’s like walking in the night when you don’t return home without wealth.
The average customer did not allow those tableware to be used. Only the surrounding little kings and the feudal lords in China took out the tableware when they went to the palace to pay a visit. What does it mean to show off their wealth to Philip?
Showing off wealth means you wear silk clothes decorated with top-quality mink hair from Moscow that the company in England bought from Moscow, and walk into my palace arrogantly, but what's the use of this?
Even if I only wear a loose and robe with dark patterns, I am better than you, because I don’t know how many nobles in Europe wear the same fur clothes as you, and this one is the same style as the Minister of the Eastern Japanese Chen Mu. In addition to having no patches, even the garment maker uses the same person.
Do you also want to make one? Sorry, this garment craftsman is at the door of the Chen family mansion outside Donghua Gate in Beijing. He has a craftsmanship that Emperor Muzong of the Ming Dynasty personally granted Yuan's work. He made all the official uniforms of the Dongyang Marshal. You can't go.
Let's have a meal.
As soon as you eat, don’t you show your timidity? This is called chopsticks. How can you use your brother?
You can't even use chopsticks? Okay, pick up your knife and eat. The rice in the East is so fragrant. Be careful not to cut the knife into your mouth.
No matter who enters Fei Erye’s palace, he has to be shorter as long as he eats.
This became Philip's specialty to disrupt the other party's mind during the negotiation process.
After all, grandpa came here as grandson. He had experienced these stimulations when he and Li Dan were having dinner in the past, and his heart was extremely clear.
Therefore, Chen Mu is sure to believe that the Ming Dynasty is committed to improving the quality of life of Europeans, and this is indeed true.
As the largest distributor of Ming products in Europe, Philip can do anything for money. His porcelain, silk, and Muye smoke trading network has extended along the huge territory of the Habsburg family to Prague, Bohemia.
The most fashionable and luxurious east wind has blown to Poland. As a symbol of friendship between the two countries, Philip of Spain gave Stefan Bartori, the King of the Commonwealth of Poland, Lithuania, fourteen pieces of silk and silk in the silk of the silk of Stefan Bartori, the King of the Commonwealth of Poland.
During the battle where Stefan Bartori led his army into the hinterland of the Principality of Moscow, he beat Ivan the Thunder to the siege of Venus in Pskov, and a red and white tooth flag woven with bright silk satin was raised outside the city.
The only drawback is that in the chaotic environment when the army withdraws, Philip gave Stefan Bartori a set of porcelain gift boxes signed by Chen Mu and lost.
Now not only Chen Mu wants to talk to Philip about the bigger deal, but Philip also wants to find Chen Mu, which is related to Polish King Stefan Bartori.
In the war between Poland and the Grand Duchy of Moscow, the Krim Khanate joined the war as an ally and won a great victory.
Although the Krim Khanate was a vassal of the Ottomans, they always regarded themselves as the orthodox descendants of the Golden Horde, and there were also descendants of Han generals from the Yuan Dynasty's western expeditions.
Chen Mu sold it to Philip, and the gift box transferred by Philip was obtained by the Krim Khanate after the war. The Chinese characters on it made people feel familiar and they immediately learned the latest news from the Ming Dynasty.
Because he could not safely travel through the land of many Catholic countries, a tribal chief of Shandong descent sent someone to join Polish messengers to enter Spain, hoping to re-establish contact with the Central Plains.
Their Khan urgently needed to establish connections with the Ming Dynasty. On the one hand, the north has always faced the threat from the Principality of Moscow, and on the other hand, the Ming Dynasty has become too powerful.
The envoys who lived in the Ottomans received news about the Western Military Palace from the Arabian Sea, and now they received news about the Eastern Military Palace from Spain. They were afraid that there would be another Beiyang Military Palace in the Ming Dynasty, and they didn't know when they would come out from behind.
