Chapter 2220: The Ming Dynasty in the Mouth of the Envoy

"We want to build more ships. Have you seen those drawings? After you have seen them, think about their advantages, and then build our own warships!"

On the long coastline, in a shipyard, countless warships were being built on the slipway, and the sound of knocking almost never stopped.

After passing a group of workers transporting wood, Ward pointed to the slipway and said: "Lisbon is better than us in this regard, so we have to catch up quickly, otherwise they won't mind burning our slipway."

The man next to him pondered: "The Lisbon people are indeed powerful at navigation, but we are outnumbered. As long as these warships on the slipway are launched into the water, I don't think anyone will dare to underestimate us."

Ward said coldly: "But do you know that in order to build these warships, the king almost emptied the treasury?"

The man said indifferently: "So what? Lisbon and Frank are also building warships. As long as they find new places of wealth, these will not be a problem."

"Jack, your idea is very good, but it needs to be implemented, and this depends on the performance of Smith Boat Team. We can only pray now, there is no other way."

The man nodded and said: "The king is very worried, but before I came, he said that the kingdom will do its best."

Ward solemnly said: "Yes, I will try my best!"

The man sighed: "Frank's envoy is back, they have really arrived in Ming Dynasty."

Ward was stunned and asked with some annoyance: "What did they bring back?"

The man said: "They brought back gifts from the Ming Dynasty. The porcelain is so exquisite that people can't bear to touch it. Those exquisite silks make everything we can buy defective..."

"But that's nothing!"

The lines on Ward's face were hard, and the words he spoke were also hard: "Those nobles need these, and what Plantagenet needs is a new place."

The man's eyes became filled with color, and he almost sighed as he said: "That's a place where oil flows, Ward, where all the wealth in the world is..."

The work on the slipway is not stopping for a moment, and the wood that has been hoarded for a long time shows the Plantagenet people's ambitions for the sea.

The warship is slowly taking shape, and countless new crew members are learning on the sea.

The war has completely stopped. In Frankia, the nobles are enjoying themselves, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is taking the opportunity to unite all forces.

But the envoy, who was originally regarded as dead by everyone, suddenly came back. Even though there were only two of them, it still caused a sensation among the upper class.

In the temporary palace, Frank's top group of people were looking at Bastian.

Bastian has been tanned red and black, but he is in good spirits.

"...Their land is vast. We have been sailing along the coastline. We can see some cities along the way, but they are very small..."

"How small?"

one of the nobles asked, then chuckled along with everyone else.

Is it a huge and powerless Ming Dynasty?

That couldn't be better!

Bastian saw the contempt and greed. He raised his head slightly and said: "No matter how small the city is, it can still shock us...it's very clean. Their cities are very clean."

There was a buzzing sound, and those people were teasing the serious Bastian carelessly.

Bastian raised his voice angrily, "Their people are well-clothed and well-fed..."

The buzzing sound suddenly became louder and turned into laughter.

The common people are nothing!

"How's their army, Bastian."

Someone asked, and then frowned at the laughing nobles.

There was a dry cough from above, and the laughter died away.

Bastian bowed upward, and then continued: "Their army is very powerful. On the island at that time, I saw that the natives were easily defeated by their army, and they were well-disciplined."

"Their royal family is not weak. I saw a prince who was the uncle of Emperor Ming. He was able to kill such a huge monster. He cut off the monster's head with just one knife..."

Bastian stretched out his hand as hard as he could,

But he still shook his head and said: "The monster is very big and can easily kill an adult. The prince's beard is a little white, but I feel as weak as an ant in front of him."

He sneered and said: "Everyone, this is what you call the weak Ming Dynasty. Well, who is willing to try their power? Then I am willing to bet anyone that those who go will become corpses or die in some mine. of labor..."

The nobles looked at each other, then looked serious, as if they had not said anything.

The Crown Prince's majestic voice came from above: "Bastian, tell me, what kind of country it is. Are their kings wise, are their generals good at fighting, and are their civil servants...competent?"

Bastian quickly stood up straight, thought for a moment, and said, "Your Highness, Emperor Ming is very majestic, but very young."

"Really? That's really good!"

The atmosphere below became lively again. Being young means that it is difficult to control a huge empire. Just like Frank, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is still integrating all forces. This was under the premise of a war that lasted for decades, otherwise he would have no chance, no chance at all.

"Their generals are like a group of hungry beasts, everyone..."

Bastian said seriously: "Their old emperor defeated the Halet people, and they have no opponents since then, so those generals are very hungry, and they are eager to find fresh food."

When it comes to the Hallet people, because they once defeated Rou Charming, and the people here know how powerful Rou Charming is, the atmosphere gradually became calm.

"As for their civil servants, they are very calm, but they don't seem to get along well with the emperor, and there is some gap."

The crown prince above became more and more interested and asked, "Who impressed you the most?"

Bastian said subconsciously: "That guy who kills without blinking an eye..."

"who?"

"That legendary demon god, he likes to kill and pile up mountains of corpses..."

"Oh my God!"

A group of nobles exclaimed like women, some even covered their mouths, that look...

The king knocked on the armrest of the chair and frowned: "That's just a legend, Akito... Their goods are very exquisite and soft, so that's just a legend."

"No, Your Majesty."

Bastian felt that he needed to dispel the king's underestimation, so he said seriously: "Your Majesty, when he looked at me, it was like looking at a sheep..."

…

In Lisbon, the king worriedly asked whether Henry's safety was guaranteed.

"Yes, although my son is lonely, without him, Lisbon will be far away from the ocean."

The king's words seemed cold, but they were another form of concern.

There were several ministers standing below, and one of them said: "Your Majesty, His Highness's safety is related to whether our exploring fleet is discovered by Mingren."

"Okay, fleet..."

The king's eyes suddenly sharpened, his back straightened, and his tone was firm: "They are here too, the three countries are jointly exploring the route, and we are the weakest. Plantagenet and Frank are working hard to build warships, and we are not falling behind, even if they sell out Lisbon won’t back down even if the pants that cover her face are taken off, we need to fight!”

"Yes Your Majesty, Lisbon must fight"

Several ministers bowed and their worries gradually dissipated.

Among the three countries, Lisbon is the weakest.

But when it comes to sailing, Lisbon is the most adventurous!
