The summer in Jeju is still very beautiful.
The green fields are dotted with wild flowers, and the blue sky and blue sea contrast with each other.
It is indeed a good place for vacation in the future.
Zhao Lie is entering Jeju Port with guests from the north from Macau at this time.
Please search for the most complete and fastest updated Eager to know whether Zhao Lie's situation is true, Alexandra's uncle and Alonzo came to Jeju on two Galen ships.
They wanted to see with their own eyes whether Zhao Lie had the strength to protect Alexandra and give Ya Alexandra lives a happy life, one is to see if Zhao Lie has the ability to help Macau maintain routes to Japan.
As they approached Jeju, they had already encountered Jeju's clipper sentry ship.
In the outer sea, they encountered two patrolling Galen warships, the Feng Yi and the Geng Yan.
When they entered the harbor, they saw the docks, shipyards, and belts that covered the bay.
There are huge forts and bastions with obvious Portuguese style.
They stand on the shore and look down at Jeju Port, which is within their shooting range.
After landing on the coast of Jeju, both of them felt relieved.
One was a niece who had found a good son-in-law, and the other had indeed established his own power.
At the dock, dozens of military and political personnel such as Huang Han and Ma Tao came to greet him.
This time was not the same as in the past.
Zhao Lie sent the Feihu in advance to notify everyone in Jeju to come and greet him.
After all, this was to give his future father-in-law and cooperation.
Impress your partner.
Surrounded by everyone, Zhao Lie and his party headed for Jeju City.
The next day, Zhao Lie personally accompanied the two of them to visit the shipyard.
They saw the huge keels of ten Tang-class warships still on the slipway and the busy scene of more than 10,000 shipyard craftsmen.
They were really shocked.
After all, the huge scale here was.
The scene is not comparable to that of small Macau.
Three days later, the returning fleet of dozens of sea-going ships deeply shocked the two of them, especially the two tall ships, the Taishan and the Huashan.
Each ship continued to spit out huge pine, fir, camphor, Wood and other logs left the docks filled with piles of wood.
Alonzo visited the Portuguese in various places, and the answer he got was that the silver reward would be distributed as usual, which was two or three times that of Macau, but it was a bit lonely and surrounded by people.
I miss Macau very much.
At this point, there are no problems whether it is a wedding or cooperation, and we have entered the specific discussion stage.
The result of the discussion was that Assuncao returned to Macau to prepare for the wedding, which will be held in Jeju next summer.
The negotiation between Zhao Lie and Alonzo was much more difficult.
Zhao Lie's condition is that Zhao Lie will charge 30% of the revenue from the route from Macau to Japan.
At the same time, when Macau is attacked by the Dutch, Zhao Lie can send troops to assist, but there will be a fee.
If the route to Manila encounters harassment from the Dutch, assistance can also be provided.
Additional charges apply.
At the same time, Macau people will collect science and technology and political books for Zhao Lie in Western Europe, and craftsmen, especially glass, iron smelting, and shipbuilding craftsmen, will also help detect the movements of the Netherlands and England.
There is no objection in the general direction, but in terms of income distribution and escort charges, the two sides are very much at odds.
Alonzo believes that Jeju’s contribution is not proportional to what it receives, and the benefits are too much.
Zhao Liefang believes that now only Jeju can risk an all-out war with the Netherlands and form an alliance with Macau, which is too risky.
Compared with the harvest, it was disproportionate.
If Zhao Lie had not insisted, there would be no need to sign this treaty, and the two sides started to see each other.
Macau is the home of the Portuguese in Macau.
Their hometown thousands of miles away was involved in the war with Spain, and the end was far away.
The whole country of Portugal was squeezed out of breath by Spain.
In comparison, Macau is already a paradise.

Every year, many Portuguese people try their best to come to Macau to make a living.
Alonzo is proud of it.
Of course, it is also used as his own family property, so he naturally divides it up.
In fact, Zhao Lie didn't care much about this profit.
He was establishing the standards for Jeju to enter into treaties with Europeans.
Unreasonable terms cannot be agreed, and reasonable terms must be striven for with strong conditions.
Finally, Zhao Lie personally discussed with Alonzo, "Mr.
Alonzo, this is Macau's last hope.
The Dutch have been coveting the Ming Dynasty's huge market for decades.
The armed attack did not allow them to get the Ming Dynasty's permission.
Their only last way is to destroy Macau.
This trading port expelled the Portuguese forces, leaving Ming Dynasty to rely on them for sea trade.
Even if it was just smuggling trade, the profits would be enough for the East India Company to laugh at.
I am the only one who can save Macau at the moment. " Alonzo finally gave in and handed over 30% of the revenue from the northern route to Jeju.
The two parties agreed to escort the Japanese route three to four times a year.
Each time, Macau maritime merchants would concentrate their cargo and go out to sea for unified escort.
In addition, the safety of the Manila route was temporarily provided by the Macau Navy. care.
Finally, Alonzo and Ma Tao negotiated everything, and the two parties jointly signed the Jeju Treaty, known as the Jeju Commercial Treaty in history, which laid the foundation for joint cooperation between the two parties and also consolidated Macau's position as a center for commercial exchanges between the Ming Dynasty and Europe.
Finally, the two discussed the return of Portuguese personnel due next year.
Zhao Lie meant to keep the Portuguese craftsmen in Shidao to serve for a few more years, while Alonzo meant to follow personal wishes.
Many Portuguese People miss their hometown very much.
"Mr.
Alonzo, you have to know that once the methods of wrought iron smelting and Tiago cannon manufacturing are introduced to the Dutch, can you imagine how many of their ships will be equipped with Tiago cannons?"
Zhao Lieti After clicking on the speaker, Alonzo still didn't understand Macau's current predicament.
Alonzo trembled when he heard this.
If the Dutch warships were equipped with Tiago cannons, then with the numerical advantage of the Dutch warships, Macau's ships would not have to go to sea.
Macau would only be dead.
As for whether the Dutch people will have to go, as long as the salary is high, anything can happen, "Then it can only be forced to stay by Mr.
Zhao.
Our council has no way to do this."
Zhao Lie despised Alonzo.
He didn't want to be a villain if he wanted to get benefits.
Forget it, Zhao Lie didn't want to care about it.
I feel relieved when I think about Macau’s parliamentary system.
"Besides, I hope Lord Alonzo will keep the matter of our alliance a secret.
He will only tell the outside world that he will use silver to hire us as escorts," Zhao Lie said.
"Why?"
Alonzo was confused.
Isn't it just a pledge of strength to form an alliance?
Why dodge?
"From Macau, we can detect the whereabouts of the Spanish and English, and from Macau, we can detect who wants to use money to buy the fleet escort."
Zhao Lie said slowly.
Alonzo squinted his eyes and took a good look at Zhao Lie this time.
Although Zhao Lie was tall and powerful, he was cunning and cunning in his actions, like a cunning fox.
However, a fox as an ally is better than a stupid pig, so He nodded with deep understanding.

A few days later, Zhao Lie boarded the Princess Alexandra and went with Alexandra to North China with the fleet.
Alonzo and Assuncao returned to Macau by boat.
Since they were on the Galen battleship, there was no need for Zhao Lie to send a fleet to escort them this time.
Among them, Alonzo also wanted to visit Beihua, but the long voyage made him give up this idea in the end.
Two months later, Jeju will send three Galen warships to Macau to escort the first batch of Japanese shipping ships.
The route between Macau and Japan co-operated by both parties was officially put into operation.
This morning, the weather was very good.
There was a gentle breeze, and the sun was fighting against the clouds.
Sometimes revealed and sometimes hidden.
Liu Fugui's team 100 is on a day off today, and Liu Fugui has asked the vice president to stay on duty because he has something to do.
Liu Fugui walked out of the barracks accompanied by four guards, and saw Zou Huaien, Wu Han, Ji Gang, Gao Bo, Ma Wen, Mei Kaishan and others gathered at the door, talking and laughing in low voices.
"President Bai is here, salute." a guard shouted.
Everyone hurriedly saluted the military salute.
"Okay, we are all old brothers."
Liu Fugui returned the gift.
Liu Fugui looked at the old brothers.
Zou Huaien, Wu Han, and Gao Bo were all very old.
They were all promoted due to their merit.
Ma Wen, Mei Kaishan, and Ji Gang also have enough military achievements, but they have no positions at the moment and can only wait.
"Brothers, let's go."
Ordinarily, when old brothers get together, Liu Fugui should have a good get-together with the old brothers, but this is not the time.
Because there are still important things to do.
Unlike the few people talking and laughing just now, the group of people walked out of the military camp in a more solemn tone.
Everyone first went to Jeju City and bought two cooked pig heads, melons and fruits, braised chicken, rice wine, incense candles, and paper money.
Everyone left Jeju and went straight to the Chungnyeolsa Shrine.
Seeing the tall and majestic main entrance of the Martyrs' Shrine from a distance, several people became even more silent.
Maybe this will also be their future residence.
An even number of soldiers guarded the main entrance.
The chief greeted them, checked their military badges, and released them.
Yu Fugui led everyone to the main hall, and found the tablets of Lao Liao and Tang Zhenjun on the right wall.
Yu Fugui led everyone to light a stick of incense.
Then, on the gentle slope behind the main hall, hundreds of tombstones appeared in front of them.
The elders of them walked towards the middle of the building quietly.
This isn't their first time.
In the middle of the gentle slope, they found the graves of Lao Liao and Tang Zhenjun side by side.
Although it had been more than a month since their last visit, there were no tall grasses on it, and the cemeteries here were taken care of by specialized personnel.
Yu Fugui and everyone placed the sacrifices together.
Yu Fugui was the first to offer a stick of incense, "Old Liao, Xiaotang, I, Old Yu, have come to see you."
The rest of the people presented joss sticks and paper money to the two of them in turn.
"I am rich."
"I am Zou Huaien."
"Wu Han."
"Mei Kaishan."
"Ma Wen."
"Ji Gang."

"Gao Bo."
Respect the two brothers.
Everyone scattered the rice wine in the bowls in front of the tomb to pay respect to the two deceased brothers.
After all, this was just their tomb.
A few people sat on the floor, simply drank a few sips of wine and ate a few bites of food.
"Lao Liao, Xiaotang, you guys have a good rest here.
Maybe one day I, Lao Yu, will come to accompany you.
Then we can have a good time."
Finally, Yu Fugui patted the tombstone with a reddish eye.
After all, it is inevitable for a general to He was about to die.
This was what he was doing.
He resolutely led a few people back.
After leaving the gate, a few people were still walking in silence, and the atmosphere was dull.
Marvin looked at everyone and said, "Brothers, I just looked at the brothers guarding the door, and I thought to myself, Tsk, how bad did it get to be here guarding the door in the previous life?"
Hey, Ji Gang and Gao Bo laughed out loud, and others also smiled.
The dull and depressing atmosphere was gone forever, and several people began to talk and laugh.
Life has to go on, right?
To be continued.
