Everyone else has one factor or another that is inferior to him.
Maybe Lao Tan's connections and brains are good, but he is not simple. If he does this, he may be too closely connected with officials, and it will be difficult to do something in the future, so he stays in Liaodong to make big money like "smuggling trade", engage in grassland, and Liaodong intelligence
It suits him better.
There is also my cousin Li Tiezhu. In terms of technical level, he will probably be able to learn the skills of a missionary soon. He was able to make a self-ringing bell very quickly before and also dismantled a pocket watch. But after all, he is a technical talent, and it is too difficult to stand alone at a distance.
It's hard for him.
This time, the missionary who made pocket watches was taken away and asked Li Tiezhu to work with him. In the future, there will also be yellow-wheel guns, as well as soap, perfume, stockings, high-heeled shoes and other high-profit goods for people's livelihood, so that Li Tiezhu can also expand his comprehensive skills.
In fact, this is secondary. The most important ones are basic sciences such as mathematics, geometry, geography, etc.
I hope Li Tiezhu can read more books and join the first group of people to master modern science.
Jinnige and others have not been going as well as they could in the past six months.
On the one hand, the Donglin Party in the court proposed to stop them from preaching; on the other hand, they worked hard in the workshop making clocks and translating, but there was no hope.
I heard that "Tolkien" went to fight, and was later arrested and imprisoned in Zhao Prison. The struggle around him in the court was so fierce that even Xu Guangqi couldn't intervene.
Even though Jinni Pavilion looks like Gandalf and Dumbledore, he still doesn't know spells and magic.
He was lamenting again how he was following Matteo Ricci's footsteps.
"Tolkien" said that by cooperating with him, he could achieve much higher achievements than Matteo, and that he could become Rome, Portugal, and Ace's helper against the Netherlands.
I was very moved when I first heard it, but now that I think about it, isn’t it ridiculous?
He can remain calm for the time being, but the same cannot be said for other missionaries.
Bi Fangji from Naples, who was less than 40 years old at this time and had a home in Macau, went to Jinni Pavilion and complained: "I don't want to wait any longer. The Ming Dynasty is very strict. I want to go to Korea or Japan. There may be some places there."
Our chance.”
Jinnige knew that Bi Fanji had arrived in Macau in his twenties and was very familiar with the situation in Asia. His proposal might be an option.
But the effect is far less than the previous Matteo Ricci.
"Tolkien" had promised before, and he repaid him in the spirit of the contract, working hard to bring missionaries to build him clocks, and also translated many books.
Was he really abandoned?
"Bi Fanji, please wait a little longer. After all, Xu Guangqi said that he also plans to go to North Korea to discuss a plan to deal with the slave establishment. But he also thinks that he should wait for Tolkien to come back."
"Well Mr. Tolkien, is he that magical?"
Suddenly, Bi Fanji's shoulder was lightly tapped. That hand was wearing a golden ring, and the ring was engraved with ancient inscriptions that no one could understand.
"Bilbo Baggins, won the riddle in the dark, Gollum tried to catch the hobbit overhead, but it was too late"
The story seemed to be magical, and the missionaries' eyes widened.
There is only one person who can tell this story.
"Mr. Tolkien!"
"It's me." Wang Hongyu admitted openly.
Jin Nige almost cried with joy. Without this extremely young Eastern man in front of him, but with endless wisdom and charm, they missionaries would have no choice but to settle down with their familiar friends in Jiangnan and Lingnan.
After Wang Hongyu greeted Jinnige, he looked at Bi Fangji again.
"Remember that your Excellency is from Naples?"
"Oh! You remember me and you know Naples!"
"Haha, you are looking down on me. Although Naples is in Italy, it is now ruled by Ace, but the locals are still very supportive and are doing their best to fight against the Dutch."
"That's right! The Ming Dynasty must support us and drive away the Dutch!" Bi Francis was a little excited. These missionaries came east at this time, with the idea of uniting the Ming Dynasty and fighting against the Netherlands.
Jinnige introduced: "His name is Bi Fangji. He is a hot-blooded and impulsive person, but he has great courage and perseverance."
"Bi Francis, Bi Mr. Francis."
Wang Hongyu greeted him and tried his best to think about the records of Bi Fanji in later generations.
Since it has been a long time, I just remember that this name appeared. It seems that it was during the Southern Ming Dynasty when gunners were recruited to fully support the anti-Qing Dynasty.
"To make a long story short, our army won and lost in the previous war in Liaodong. Anyway, I'm back. You just need to put down all your worries."
"good."
Jinnige and others were not very interested in the war. They wanted to hear Wang Hongyu's next plan, fulfill his previous promises, prevent the Netherlands from taking the lead, and realize Rome's friendship and expectations for the Ming Dynasty.
"I have prepared a plan and we will go to Yunyang, Huguang together."
"Yunyang? Where is that?" Bi Fangji has been in Macau for more than ten years and still doesn't know where Yunyang is.
"Don't worry too much about the location," Wang Hongyu wrote lightly, as if Yunyang was not too far from the capital, which made the missionaries feel a little relieved.
It’s not too far, it’s much closer than Yunnan-Guizhou River, but Yunnan-Guizhou River is very convenient for you, but I can’t make it too easy for you.
"I will build a mobile school in the capital, the core of which is the mobile school library in the capital. Bring all the 7000 volumes in the west, and you can be the librarian for me."
"Librarian?"
Wang Hongyu saw the surprised looks of Jin Nige and others, then looked into the distance and said: "That's right, the librarian of the Capital Mobile School."
In the Capital Mobile School, there is no "big school", but the word "mobile" is added.
This shows that in Wang Hongyu's mind, it cannot yet play the role of a university, and it has to move around from the current capital.
At least the first stage is going to Yunyang.
After hearing this, the missionaries fell into deep thought and felt that it was of no benefit to their purpose.
Everyone looked towards Jinni Pavilion.
Calmly, he smoothed his neat beard and looked at Wang Hongyu with eyes still full of trust: "Mr. Tolkien, you are a very knowledgeable and admirable person. But you do not agree with our Lord, nor do you agree with us."
There is no visible or tangible help for us. Do you believe this is not the final result?"
His Chinese is good and he speaks clearly, but also in a tactful way, still asking questions.
Because it can be said that Wang Hongyu is their hope. Without his support, they would not be able to achieve any cooperation using the method they used in the past.
"of course"
Of course, Wang Hongyu would give them a picture and a little bit of sweetness, so that they could do their best to help him and Daming.
"There are three things that will give you satisfactory results."
"Oh? What could it be?"
Wang Hongyu smiled slightly and continued to fool this group of foreigners.
Give them three things that will definitely excite them.
