Chapter 216 Negotiations
The Spaniards felt that Amos must have won. They once saw Amos kill a wild bullfight with one punch. The physiognomy he fought with could not be stronger than a cow, so they cheered enthusiastically and shouted in unison: "Kill him! Kill him!"
However, a scene that surprised them happened, "Crack!" A crisp sound made the teeth sore. Those who are familiar with fighting know that this is the sound of bone cracking. With the crisp sound, Amos, who was as strong as a mountain, fell to the ground, but Fa Zheng stood steadily as if he were in the mountains, slowly retracted his fist, shook his head and said, "It's really unbeatable!"
The Spanish cheers came to an abrupt end, and the scene became as quiet as death. Guo Zhiyuan saw that Amos fell down and did not move. He thought Fazheng had beaten him to death. He had to negotiate with the Spanish next. It was not good to die after all, so he walked to Fazheng and asked in a low voice, "Did you beat him to death?"
Fa Zheng scratched his head and grinned, "No, he just fainted, otherwise he would have hurt to death, but his hand must be useless..."
Guo Zhiyuan then breathed a little relieved, turned his head to Akunia, who had a gloomy face and looked very ugly, and said, "Governor General, it seems that I am going to say regret again, but your warrior just fainted. You should arrange for the doctor to treat him as soon as possible..."
Akunia originally wanted to give Guo Zhiyuan a warning through this duel, but she was slapped in the face, and her face naturally would not look good. She snorted coldly and turned around and left. The other Spanish people also felt bored and left one after another. Only Fei Lisa did not leave. When Guo Zhiyuan pointed a flintlock at Thomas' head just now, Fei Lisa felt very handsome and very masculine. This was not visible to those men who pursued her around her like flies all day long, which made her have a strong interest in the young oriental man in front of her.
Guo Zhiyuan saw that Akunia had left like this and was a little confused. He was here to negotiate. Akunia had left. Who should he talk to? Seeing that Fei Lisa did not leave, his eyes lit up. Among the Spaniards who attended the welcome ceremony just now, Fei Lisa was the only female. Judging from Fei Lisa's position, Fei Lisa stood behind Akunia, which showed that her relationship with Akunia must be very close, and most of them were relatives like his daughter. So he hurriedly walked towards Fei Lisa, gave Fei Lisa another chest caress, and smiled and said, "Beautiful Miss, I am very grateful for helping me translate it just now. Can I know your name?..."
"My name is Fei Lisa!" Fei Lisa looked at Guo Zhiyuan with interest and said with a sweet smile.
"Felisha, your name is as beautiful as you! I wonder if I have the honor to kiss your hand?..." Guo Zhiyuan flattered.
When Fei Lisa saw that Guo Zhiyuan actually knew that the kissing gift was getting more and more curious. The kissing gift was a common etiquette for European aristocratic men to meet noble women, showing respect and gratitude to the ladies. Who doesn’t want women to be praised for being beautiful? She extended her slender hand to Guo Zhiyuan very happily.
Guo Zhiyuan gently picked up Fei Lisa's slender hand with both hands, symbolically kissed her back of her fingers, and continued: "Fei Lisa, I want to talk to the Governor. I wonder if you can recommend it for me?"
Fei Lisa had a good impression of Guo Zhiyuan and agreed readily: "You want to see my father? Yes, I will take you directly to his office!..."
Guo Zhiyuan was overjoyed. Fei Lisa was indeed Akunia's daughter, and she was very friendly to herself. It seemed that she could use her help to complete her mission. She hurriedly said: "Thank you so much, can you wait for me? I'll explain to my subordinates..."
Fei Lisa nodded, Guo Zhiyuan hurried back, but as soon as he came over, Chu Wan'er shouted to him with anger, "Why did you kiss the Western vixen's hand just now?!"
Guo Zhiyuan looked at Chu Wan'er speechlessly. Chu Wan'er was jealous and didn't look at the occasion. She had to patiently explain that this was a kind of etiquette for a Westerner to meet. Chu Wan'er refused to rush: "What kind of bullshit etiquette?! I think you are fascinated by that Western vixen!..."
Sun Er, who was standing by, quickly rescued the scene and said, "The Great Westerners do have such etiquette. I have seen them too. You are so amazing. You can even speak Western languages!"
Chu Wan'er couldn't be resilient anymore, and she snorted coldly and didn't say anything anymore. Guo Zhiyuan told Zhang Cheng and the others to wait outside and not to have conflicts with the Spanish guards. After the explanation, Guo Zhiyuan followed Fei Lisa into the Governor's Mansion and led her to Acunya's office.
The reason why Akunia left without saying anything was because he found that Guo Zhiyuan was too different from the envoys sent by the Ming Dynasty he had met, which made him feel that the situation about the Ming Dynasty he had learned before might not be accurate, so his plan was completely disrupted. So he planned to let Guo Zhiyuan and the others go first. On the one hand, this could create a psychological advantage in negotiations, and on the other hand, he also had more time to collect information about the Ming Dynasty so that he could make correct decisions.
When Fei Lisa brought Guo Zhiyuan, Akunia was telling the servant that he would find a place to settle Guo Zhiyuan and the others first and monitor it closely. Unexpectedly, Fei Lisa brought Guo Zhiyuan directly. She was stunned for a moment. He was not good at scolding Fei Lisa, nor could he keep Guo Zhiyuan out of the door, so he had to nod to Guo Zhiyuan, then leaned on the back of the chair, and said arrogantly with a blank expression: "The envoy from the Eastern Kingdom, say, what do you have to say to me..."
Guo Zhiyuan did not rush to answer Acunia's question, but looked around slowly, and then said without being humble and arrogant: "I originally thought that Spain was a civilized country, and the Spanish knights were very graceful. It seems that I was wrong. I don't know how to receive envoys from other countries from afar according to Spanish etiquette. However, in my Ming Dynasty, even if they were envoys from enemy countries, we would politely ask them to sit and talk..."
Akunia's old face turned red when Guo Zhiyuan said it, rubbed her hands awkwardly, waved her hand to the servant beside her and ordered: "Go quickly, bring a chair to the messenger from the East!"
