Chapter 197 Beautiful messenger

These are all external appearances. If you adapt to these, you are not a perfect modern white-collar worker, and you cannot make progress towards international talents. ◇↓◇↓Little◇↓You also have to get used to eating Western food. If you can’t afford it, you have to eat European and American fast food. Anyway, you can’t eat any fried noodles. It seems that your IQ will be affected by the restaurant’s signature. The most important thing is that you have to add a few English words to your usual language conversations. Regardless of whether you have passed the second level of English, you have to bring it out. It depends on who brings it more and naturally. Then who will look particularly fashionable, classy, ​​and especially like international talents.

This is not enough. You have to celebrate traditional Western festivals and religious festivals, such as Thanksgiving, Easter, Christmas, and Valentine's Day, you must remember them clearly and understand their origins and outs, and remember them more carefully than remembering your parents' birthdays. As for whether you believe in Western religions or not, that is not a problem. You must agree with them devoutly and actively participate, which is the trend of the times.

In later generations, there were often forums with cents, and the 50 cents were arguing tense. In fact, people who jumped and scolded others for cents turned to celebrate Christmas. He even agreed with European and American culture from the bottom of his heart than real cents. Isn’t Christmas related to you? He never looked at you even when he died, and he wouldn’t look at you even when he was dead. He didn’t invite you on his birthday. You said you were standing at the door of someone else’s banquet and cheering.

What is this? This is called cultural invasion, and it is a successful invasion. It is very successful. The complete invasion is completed and it cannot be changed even if it wants to. China has not been completely colonized, but why has it been so severely affected by cultural invasion? This question cannot be said, and it is a book after it is said. Everyone should think about it for yourself. It is not a difficult topic. It can be understood by a normal-minded person.

The root of it is other people's things, culture shows advanced nature and shows its beautiful side. People pursue beauty and advanced things, and beautiful things are easily accepted, including lifestyles. This is just like the Song Dynasty. It represented advanced and beauty at that time, so the surrounding countries all use Song Dynasty things to learn Song Dynasty culture as beauty.

When someone deliberately uses this method to other countries and wants to achieve a certain goal, it is active cultural invasion. At present, Hong Tao is doing this thing intentionally or unintentionally. This thing may have an effect in five years or fifty years. Although the time span may be long and there will be some price in the middle, the effect is very, very good, much better than the effect of using strong ships and cannons to attack cities and land, and the cost is much lower. Once this invasion is effective, the invaded country will be very passive and it will be irreversible without hurting the muscles and bones. Even if you understand it at that time, it will be useless. You can only watch this invasion become deeper and deeper until the foundation of the nation and the country are completely clear.

"Next year, next year, a fireworks party for the Spring Festival will be held here, so that the people of Kabaran will feel the atmosphere of the festival in the Song Dynasty! And to those merchants of the Song Dynasty, the goods will be 10% off during the Spring Festival. The people of Kabaran are so yearning for the Song Dynasty, so they should express their gratitude. The Song Dynasty is a country of etiquette. Jinhe Company has adhered to the mantra of the Song Dynasty, and the exchange of etiquette is the right thing to do!" How to feel it in my heart does not affect Hong Tao's bad water. Before the dinner was finished, he began to use insults. Chinese language is far from enough. He also brought in the festivals and living habits of the Han people to speed up the cultural invasion of the city. When they consciously and voluntarily live like the Song Dynasty, their sense of identity and cohesion will increase exponentially, and use this as the center of the circle to radiate to the Indian Peninsula. It is a natural thing.

"That's great. The expenses are paid by the royal family and I have to spend every year!" Even if Prince Taba had three heads, he couldn't think of how bad Hong Tao was. In recent years, he has rich in his hands. He also has a good combat force. His sphere of influence is currently spread across the western part of Ceylon. It's not an exaggeration to be the King of Ceylon for a few years. Of course, whether it is King of Ceylon or Emperor of Ceylon depends on the meaning of Chairman Hong. Compared with an emperor, it's a big deal to spend some money on the Spring Festival.

"Come! Cheers! Cheers! Cheers to the Song Dynasty and Ceylon State, to the future of Jinhe Company and Ceylon State! Cheers to the friendship between our two countries for generations!" Hong Tao is still the best in terms of how the slogans are shouted, how they are righteous, and how they are loud and proud. He only needs to use the diplomatic rhetoric of later generations, and even a hundred Hanlins cannot make up. At this moment, people are not as shameless as politicians in later generations, and dare to shout anything.

Hong Yu and Jiang Zhuyi like Kabaran Port very much because the climate here is mild and there are also gems. Women of any era, no matter how big or small, have a loving love for these colorful stones. However, Hong Tao still didn't stay here for much because his activities were not free and could not accompany his daughter and Jiang Zhuyi to stroll around the streets, for fear of being assassinated!

Although Kabaran Port is quite safe, it is from a strategic perspective. Two warships equipped with artillery are anchored here, so many Arab ships are given for free. Moreover, Prince Taba has changed his guns and cannons. With the Mamluks help him train his army, even if the Arabs attack ashore, they may not be able to stand. However, there are Arabs, Southeast Asians, and Indians everywhere here, and no one can guarantee that there is no hatred of Hong Tao inside.

The ancients said: When an ordinary man is angry, he will have five steps of blood. Within ten steps, all the enemy will be enemies!

Is Hong Tao afraid? You must be afraid! He is not a martial arts master, nor does he have ancient secrets to practice and protect his body. Once he is approached by the enemy, he will be stabbed to death with one knife. He will not be able to get two more stabs just because he knows more than others. Whether it is a cannon or a warship, when the distance is far, he is the king of the world. If those things are close, they are all his enemies. Not only does he bear his own life, but he also has a lot of people's future behind him. In other words, if he is not so important, who would pay attention to him? This is called a person in the world and he has no choice but to do so!

Not only Hong Tao was involuntarily, but Bo Jiao felt the same way. After hearing the secret order issued by Hong Tao to him, the guy's first reaction was not to worry about Hong Tao's safety, but to ask himself if he could go to the Great Qin State with Hong Tao, and he also wanted to go and see it. Of course, Hong Tao would not agree to Bo Jiao to take risks with him. He was a backup plan he left, and the responsibility was heavy, and Kabalan Port could not be separated from him for the time being, so he should stay here honestly.

At the end of August, the Jinhe, Malacca, and Zhenzhou left Kabaran Port together and walked nearly a hundred kilometers south. The Zhenzhou only whistled the flag of the smooth wind and turned back reluctantly. Soon, the Jinhe and Malacca entered the equatorial windless belt together. Most of the crew had experienced this kind of voyage, and only Luo Youde, Jiang Zhuyi, Hong Yu and some trainee officers came for the first time. So the Jinhe's back deck became Hong Tao's classroom. After breakfast every day, these newcomers had to listen to his vernacular world geography here. In fact, he wanted to tell Hong Yu, but the children liked the excitement and she couldn't listen to her alone. Those unlucky guys became accompanying them.

I can't finish so much time with lectures, what should I do? It doesn't matter, I will never lose myself with Hong Tao. I have to go to Europe, but I have to meet those European nobles and churches. The intuitive feeling of meeting for the first time is very important. People wear clothes, horses and saddles, and I have to make a few sets of clothes for myself and two ladies to support the storefront. Since I want to do it, it can be a system or a system. It's not about cultural invasion. This culture is not only books, language, but also living habits. Every detail may become a weapon for the invaders.

What did Europe wear in the thirteenth century? Hong Tao had never seen or studied it. In the Middle Ages, the Europeans seemed to wear tights, low-cut long skirts with skirts, wigs, and thick white powder on their faces...

"Miss Jiang is beautiful, but unfortunately there is no such clothes in my hometown. I have never seen them before." When Hong Tao spent more than half a month, using silk, gauze, whale, and baleen, using Jiang Zhuyi as a model to make a dress, and specially asked Carl to show off, but she got the answer but she had never seen it before. This made Hong Tao very depressed. He brags about cowhide with Jiang Zhuyi and his daughter for half a month, saying that he is so powerful that he makes clothes and knows more about the nobles of the Qin Kingdom. However, Carl, the standard Qin people, said that he had never seen them before, and his face was beaten and slapped.

"Then what are the women in your cousin's palace wearing? Draw them for me and I'll see!" Hong Tao was a little angry and he had to find some reason to endorse his cowhide.

"Old Ka, I really feel sad for you... Emperor! Queen! Noble! Wearing worse than singing girls in Guangzhou! Do you care about me bringing beauty to your country? I want women in Europe to become as bright and radiant as Miss Jiang!" Carl's ability to draw is actually good. Nobles take advantage of this. They have been able to receive various educations since childhood and know everything.

But no matter how good the painting skills are, it is not very useful. The costumes of European noble women in Carl's works are too simple. They are just a cotton robe, which is a bit like a dress but has no waist and cylinder. At most, they pinch some pleats under the collar, and then decorate them with ribbons and gold and silver jewelry. If you attend a formal occasion, put a robe without sleeves and collars on the outside, two pieces of cloth on the front and back, sew on the waist or tie them with a belt, and embroidered with family badges, even if it is dressed up.

Hat, no, sewed into a small bag on the head, is the hat. The difference between aristocrats and civilians is the quality of the fabric and the amount of decorations on it. Hong Tao looks familiar with this thing, as if it was still used in later generations, and the nuns have always maintained this simple headdress.
