Ambition, who can have no ambition?

Interests have always been two-way. Perhaps for Zhu Heyu, the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty, what he needed was to establish the Ming Dynasty's vassal system in Europe, and what the Genoese needed... was business.

Speaking of which, just like the traditional tribute trade in the East, then we would have to surrender first when doing business with the Ming Dynasty. But now?

Well, let my brothers and my sons be your kings first. Everything must be done step by step.

...

The next morning, after repeated communication with Chinese officials, two more days later, Alberto, the Speaker of the Parliament of the Republic of Genoa, and Miller, finally met the Crown Prince of the Ming Dynasty.

As soon as they met, Alberto and Miller followed the etiquette of the Ming Dynasty and said:

"Envoy of Genoa, little country, see His Highness the Crown Prince of the Ming Dynasty!"

"Flat."

Zhu Heyu said with a smile.

Genoa is not big, but this is the beginning. In the following time, he will also enfeoff his brothers and sons to European countries to establish a new "sectarian system".

Of course, these countries are different from the vassal states in Southeast Asia and India. They are more like the "vassal states" in the old days, but they are different. The "vassal states" only accept the canonization of the Ming Dynasty, while the kings of these countries are the princes of the Ming Dynasty.

Of course, in the future, the Ming Dynasty will also sign a series of "sectarian treaties" with them to confirm the power and obligations of the lord's ruler. Of course, the king will also bring their officials and guards. In the future, they will allow the other party to receive the education of Chinese culture from top to bottom.

This kind of education comes from top to bottom, just like now, the English people are proud of wearing bright clothes and performing Han rituals, drinking tea, and using chopsticks to subtly change their customs and habits.

Perhaps, these Europa countries will never become part of China, but what is certain is that they will definitely accept China's civilization. In fact, Zhu Heyu never thought that these Europa people would become Chinese. After all, that face is completely different from that of Chinese.

"Thank you, Prince!"

Zhu Heyu asked:

"Alberto is envoy, Genoa is really willing to ask the Ming Dynasty to enthrone the prince as King of Genoa?"

The Ming Dynasty never forced people, this was the request of the Genoese officials and civilians. Even if it was only three hundred years later, it was the Genoese people who voluntarily invited the Ming Dynasty prince as their king from the Ming Dynasty.

This is not a colonial.

This is an invitation to accept!

Alberto said:

"This matter is absolutely true. Genoa, from the governor, nobles to the common people, admires the glory of the Supreme Kingdom of the Celestial Kingdom, and hopes that the emperor of the Celestial Kingdom can send a prince to the King of Genoa so that Genoa can shower the glory of the Supreme Kingdom of the Celestial Kingdom..."

Zhu Heyu asked again:

"Where is the letter of the country?"

Alberto immediately submitted the letter of the country. Although the letter of the country was written temporarily, it was genuine. In order to sign a treaty with China, he prepared all the badges of the Republic and the signatures of the Governor.

The letter of the country is very formal, and the whole text is written in Latin. Although the ink is not finished, it is definitely in line with the legal procedures. Moreover, Alberto is also the Speaker of the Grand Speaker, and besides the governor, he is the most qualified to represent the Republic.

After taking the letter of nationality offered by the attendant, Zhu Heyu picked it up and read it.

This scene made Alberto and the others stunned. The crown prince of the Ming Dynasty actually knew Latin!

In fact, it is very painful to be the heir to the throne of the Celestial Empire. It is necessary to learn foreign languages ​​such as Latin. After all, Latin is the popular language in European countries.

However, the princes and kings of the Ming Dynasty had no need for this. Their methods of treating their subjects were simple and direct - "national rituals and Mandarin", and those who followed were born, and those who were against them... Well, some of them were means of governing the people.

But the crown prince cannot. He wants to master some foreign languages, especially for Zhu Heyu, the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty with great ambitions, which is even more so.

After reading it, Zhu Heyu smiled and said:

"Very well, I accepted the request of the Genoese officials and civilians. I wrote a letter to ask His Majesty to be the king of Genoa!"

He then said to his attendant,

"Immediately draft a treaty to enfeoff vassal states and send it to Nanjing after signing the contract."

"Thank you, Prince!"

Alberto asked excitedly:

"Then in the future, Genoa will carry out trade in various places..."

Zhu Heyu waved his hand and said:

"You go and discuss this with the business officer in detail."

Perhaps Alberto didn't know that the Ming Dynasty would not give any commercial preferential treatment because of the vassal states or vassal states. In trade, the Ming Dynasty would only give preferential treatment to its own ships and establish trade clauses that are beneficial to it in the vassal states. As for the vassal states, the same is true. As for the vassal states... they can just negotiate with each other.

As for what the Genoa can talk about? It depends on his ability.

However, even if it is the qualification for this negotiation, it is not something that anyone can have. After all, the Ming Dynasty’s dog is not something that anyone can become.

Even so, Alberto was still happily signed the drafting of the Treaty of Jerusalem by His Royal Highness.

How noble and holy land is the Treaty of Jerusalem!

Even if for the Genoese, Christ is always second and business is first, it does not prevent them from being a Christian, who are a Christian, from having some special feelings for this place.

Genoa became a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty in the Holy Land and under the witness of Christ Jesus, and joined the Ming Dynasty's vassal system.

Of course, the Spanish, who are also witnesses, looked extremely ugly. After all, Genoa was their vassal state. At least it was this Erwuzi.

The Treaty of Jerusalem, similar to the Fate Treaty signed by England, was written in bilingual Chinese and Latin, with Zhu Heyu representing the Ming Dynasty and Alberto representing Genoa.

After the signing of the treaty was completed, Alberto was naturally ecstatic, and he even took the initiative to say that Genoa could send a navy to help the Ming Dynasty fight.

Why is Alberto like this?

To put it bluntly, if the Chinese want to take advantage of the situation, they must have to conquer the Turks, and as vassals, they can naturally take advantage of the situation to take advantage of the situation. Moreover, the Genoese have always been very happy to serve foreign countries. In the past, their naval and crossbowmen were hired by European countries and became famous on the European continent.

Now, it is certainly a matter of no silence to serve the Sect Master. Besides, the Ming Dynasty is so generous, so it will definitely not be stingy, at least it is more generous than the Spanish.

The Spanish are stingy. Not only are they stingy, but they are also poor. Genoa is the creditor of Spain!

But China is different, that's really "rich"!

But His Royal Highness's next words shocked him on the spot.

Zhu Heyu said with a smile:

"Although Genoa is already a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, as a vassal, he should serve his country loyally, but Genoa has just become a vassal of the Ming Dynasty, so he doesn't have to declare war on Ottoman for the time being. As for sending fleets to help with the war, it seems that I will be spared."

His Highness's rejection made Alberto hurriedly say.

"Your Highness, please believe that every Genoese is willing to serve the Ming Dynasty, the Celestial Empire, and be loyal to His Majesty the Emperor!"

The Spaniards next to them were stunned. Is these still the Genoa profiteers they knew? Why did they become so loyal and patriotic?

In the past, they asked them to send a few musketeers, but they all pushed back and forth. Now, now... they actually wanted to send troops to help the Chinese fight.

"Will this be a bit forced? After all, Genoa has just become a vassal of the Ming Dynasty!"

Zhu Heyu did not refuse, and of course he did not agree directly.

"Never force it! Never force it!"

Alberto said hurriedly.

"It is a blessing for the Genoese to be able to be loyal to the Celestial Empire and fight for the Celestial Emperor!"

Look, fighting for the Emperor of the Celestial Empire has become a blessing for the Genoese. When did these Genoese be so loyal to China, which is thousands of miles away.

For a time, the actions of these Genoese completely subverted everyone's understanding. Perhaps they knew that Genoese were enthusiastic in the past, but they did not expect that they would be so enthusiastic about China. As soon as they became a member of China, they couldn't wait to express their loyalty to the Chinese emperor through their enthusiasm.
