Chapter 776 Siege in October (2)

. "No." Chen Si nodded and said in a deep voice, "How can we break the shackles?" "Only the light of science." Zabulu said word by word. "Well said it well" Sibulu nodded and said: Science, this is indeed what the Ming Dynasty needs most." Zabulu pressed his right hand on his left chest and bowed deeply to Chen Si: Jesus will be willing to make a small effort and send up honest and sincere scholars to help adults spread the light of science." Seeing him like this, he smiled and said in a silent smile: I would like to represent my personal warm welcome. When encountering difficulties in the future, even if we come to me." The two of them knew very well that this was a good thing for each to take, and the two were good and good, but they were tacit. "With your words, I will be even more I am confident." Shabulu smiled happily, and after saying that, he took out a small velvet face box from his sleeve and gave it to Chen Si, "This is a little care, no respect." Chen Si was stunned and realized that this foreigner had been in China for a long time and had learned to give gifts. He couldn't help but smile: Why do you and me do not use this set?" "This is given to adults by the Jesus Society," Zabulu explained: To thank you for your care for our association, just a little bit of your heart, please don't refuse." Chen Si usually doesn't see gifts, but the foreigner's attitude is very firm. He couldn't give in a few times, so he had to accept it first, and said to go back and get something else and let someone give it to him.

Snow took Shabuluo away, silently returned to the signing room, opened the small box and saw a gold case, a silver carved dial, and a natural crystal watch mirror lying quietly on the dark blue satin base. In this era, seeing this exquisite pocket watch as small as a palm, the impact on silence can be imagined. He picked up the very textured pocket watch and looked at it carefully. He saw that the dial was a scene of a person fishing by the river in the town and a person walking alone at the bridgehead. Swans wandered around the lake, observatory on both sides, churches, castles, towers, houses, hills and weeping willows and other scenery. They are vivid and easy to see. And. The outer ring of the dial is also replaced with hand-engraved patterns of Dutch tulips and flowers. The pocket watch has Roman numerals and cathedral hand made of steel, walking silently. What a perfect mechanical work of art... Silence was deeply shocked, but in my heart it was a surprise... Could it be that European mechanical craftsmanship has advanced to this level? A strong sense of crisis surged into my heart, which greatly reduced his joy in seeing the hunt. In fact, Silence didn't know that even in Europe, this could only be regarded as a handicraft. It would take hundreds of years before real industrial production...

"Sir..." Wang Qiming called out a light call outside the door, awakening something from the spiritual world, subconsciously putting the pocket watch into the drawer, and whispered: What's the matter? "Cui Zongrao, the doctor of the host and guest department, asked for a meeting." "Please come in."

So after a while, a fifth-rank official in his forties came in from outside and saluted respectfully: See the ministry." He smiled silently and kindly: Lord Cui, please sit down and watch the tea.

"Thank you, the ministry." The clerk brought the tea, and Cui Zongrao thanked him again. He knew that Chen Si did not like to play the official voice, so he quickly went straight to the topic: The envoy of Luzon, the South China Sea, submitted a letter of nationality to the host and guest office, and requested a visit to the court." Luzon... "Silently recite this place name." Oh, that was a Nanyang island country. "Cui Zongrao thought that he didn't know this place, so he quickly explained: In the early years of Hongwu, he entered Gong to be a vassal, and our dynasty also sent officials (not recognized) to give it to him. During the Yongle period, Gong was included in a total of five times, and it was not there for a long time. I don't know what the purpose of coming this time was." He said that.
