Then go to Lingnan.

Guangdong was regarded as a "outside place" in the Tang Dynasty and later rose slowly, but its economy was not balanced, and the most developed area was in the Guangzhou area.

The terrain here is high in the northwest and low in the southeast, which is similar to that in the UK.

Nanling is the largest barrier in Guangdong and the most steepest place. Taizu's seven-character "The Long March" says "The Five Ridges are winding and swelling in fine waves, and Wumeng is majestic and marvelous in muds", and "Five Ridges" refers to the five mountains of Nanling.

When entering Guangdong, the hot climate was obvious. Many officers and soldiers became ill because of the discomfort. Fortunately, there were military doctors there and no one died.

Ding Qisheng, the Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, was originally in Zhaoqing Prefecture. Later, the Governor of Portugal, Macau, Coelo, requested to meet this "great and legendary five-provincial governor", and the imperial envoy chose Guangzhou.

...

Guangdong Chengxuan announced the Political Envoy Department, Guangzhou Prefecture.

Ding Qisheng took the lead, and officials from Guangzhou respectfully welcomed the Grand Secretary of Renhua Palace, Jia Cong, the imperial envoy, the chief commander of the five provinces, and the imperial envoys were shouting outside the gate, and the flags were hanging high. The Portuguese who met him could not help but become alert.

I saw Jia Cong get out of the first-class sedan chair and bowing his hands sleepily, looking tired, there was no way, Guangdong is really hot!

The people discussed from afar that "this imperial envoy is a demon, a god of killing" and so on...

The model soldiers guarded outside the gate, and the personal soldiers followed Jia Cong and entered the lobby of the imperial envoy in the center of the city. They worshiped the imperial edict according to Chinese etiquette. Jia Cong sat in the main seat without hesitation.

China is on one side, and Portugal is on the other side.

After the two sides exchanged greetings according to different etiquettes, Zhou Wenbai, who knew foreign languages, served as Jia Cong's official, that is, Jia Cong's translator.

The translation of Portugal Governor Coello is Christopher, who is also a priest.

"Sir, the governor of Portugal is called Coelho. In Portuguese, it means rabbit. The priest is called Christopher, which means God's sender..." Zhou Wenbai said softly.

"Coelho? Rabbit?" Jia Cong was stunned. He didn't know what Portuguese birds were... He said funny: "The name of this Portuguese governor is really unique and ambitious... Rabbit is a noble and endless profession..."

"Puff!" Ding Qisheng couldn't help laughing and coughed dryly, "I have been feeling cold recently..."

However, Father Christopher had learned Chinese and told Coelho that his face was a little gloomy and shameless. Finally, he laughed loudly. Christopher laughed and said, "Our Governor thanks for your praise from the Lord General, may the gospel of God come to the Lord General."

"You can teach me!" Jia Cong nodded from a high place: "Portugal came to see you when the official first arrived. I wonder what's wrong?"

Christopher handed over the Bible with satisfaction, Ptolemy's astronomy, etc., all translated into Chinese.

In fact, this is a common means for Western missionary to China over the past century: I hope to use science to psychologically suppress China.

"Dignity Master, I only represent the Jesuits. I hope to communicate with you in literature, mathematics, science and astronomy." Christopher said proudly.

In the West, in addition to the Jesuits, there were also Domingo, Franciscans, Augustine, etc., which had their own differences and differences, but the methods used to China were almost the same.

The books were passed to Jia Cong.

Jia Cong sneered in his heart, Portugal would not be so kind!

Jia Cong saw through their sinister intentions from the beginning!

Because the invasion of force was not successful, the dissemination of the theory of Portugal was actually a preaching and adopting the "cultural invasion" method, which convinced many Chinese people in terms of thought and culture!

This is definitely not a kind heart!

After the cultural invasion, it is capital invasion! Extract profits and cheap labor!

The so-called missionary is just a very effective and despicable means they practiced during the colonization process!

Of course, Jia Cong wants science, just church, forget it...

"I only have a little interest in the so-called science of your country. In fact, your country is not so strange to our country. Your country should know that our skilled craftsmen are not inferior to you..."

"I also know that because of the royal marriage between Portugal and Spain, you two countries have merged. Your arrogant Charles V was also dizzy, but the world has changed, and now it is different. Philip II once forced the Netherlands to rise up!"

"The southern part of the Netherlands became Belgium, and the Netherlands in the Netherlands are now what you fear!"

"I believe that Governor Van Dyke of the Penghu Islands has given Portugal an answer with bloody facts!"

"After that being said, I am interested not only in Lisbon, but also in Madrid, Casti, and Aragon!"

Jia Cong raised his head proudly.

Christopher's face changed drastically and said to the Governor: "I can't believe that this Governor is so familiar with our country and so arrogant! Governor, this is not good for us!"

Coelio's face was not good either. This was the "legendary evil governor" in the Far Eastern countries. Coelio's face turned red like a rabbit.
