Matteo Ricci's words made Qu Rukui frown.

He thought deeply for a while after hearing this, he let go of his brows and nodded.

"Although this method is not very perfect, for example, if a small country has few people, it can be practicable, and it can be released to the entire Ming Dynasty's 100 million people, it is probably difficult. And what if the Audit Office and the local government are in a collusion, what should be done? How should we supervise all levels of officials from the local to the central government? The Ming Dynasty officials and officials protect each other, and the officials under Xiao Zhennan are probably not good at all.

But for a general, he could think of such an administrative method and could continue to operate. This is indeed not simple. In recent years, I have also heard that in Guangdong that the businessmen in Zhenhai in Myanmar was very prosperous and prosperous. Many foreigners went to Myanmar to do business, and many coastal merchants from the Ming Dynasty also went to Myanmar to do business with Siam. It can be seen that Xiaozhennan's financial management is very good.

Such a general who can be civil and military is really like a fish in water in Myanmar. If it is just used to govern the army, it will probably not have such a miraculous effect. In the inland of the Ming Dynasty, no one can allow him to do this. The court does not care about Myanmar and regards Myanmar as a place for prisoners to be exiled. Now, it is probably necessary to make some changes. By the way, Mr. Li, you are working around Xiao Zhennan, who are there any assistants around Xiao Zhennan?"

Matteo Ricci nodded.

"There is a Mr. Yuan, Huang, who is the capable assistant of General Xiao, who helps General Xiao handle many administrative matters."

"Yuan Lifan? This rumor is actually true. It is said that after this person resigned from office, he went to Myanmar. Later, he also went to his hometown to ask his friends to go south to help Xiao Zhennan manage Myanmar. However, it is said that only his son Yuan Yan and his disciple Chen Longzheng went south, and no one went south. Xiao Zhennan only had these three assisting people, so how could they be so prosperous?"

Qu Rukui stroked his beard and exclaimed: "I have some idea of ​​going to Myanmar to have a look. This place has always been regarded as a wild place, and I have never wanted to see it."

"That's right! Tai Su, I came out at General Xiao's order. When my work is done, you can go to Myanmar with me and I'll treat you to mung bean cake."

Qu Rukui was stunned for a moment.

"Mung bean cake? What is that? Are pastries made from mung beans?"

"Well, yes, the climate in Myanmar is hot, so General Xiao made mung bean cake with mung beans that can cool down. The taste is sweet and soft. It is so intoxicating to eat it with tea. Basically, residents in Myanmar have eaten mung bean cake. The price is not expensive and everyone can afford it."

"Oh? There is something wrong with this? I really have to go and see it..."

Qu Rukui moaned so softly.

Because it was necessary to deal with money, Matteo Ricci used the relationship between Qu Rukui and sent reliable people to board a boat from Guangzhou Port to Luzon Island to ask for money. After asking for money, he would transport it back from Guangzhou Port. Matteo Ricci was used as funding for the activity and handled some Fujian officials.

Relying on Qu Rukui's influence on his connections, he explained the fact that there were no gold and silver on Luzon Island, which prompted the emperor to give up this idea. Matteo Ricci treated himself as a diplomat, and he was indeed doing diplomat work. There was no way, there were too few foreigners who knew Chinese.

Matteo Ricci himself is one of them who is more proficient in many things. Through him, there were few people in the Ming Dynasty who knew Spanish and Portuguese, and there were no translators in Beijing who knew Portuguese and Spanish.

These missionaries were the earliest translation talents, helping the Chinese and Europeans in the Ming Dynasty achieve their initial exchanges and make great contributions.

There was a feeling of panic on Luzon Island, and suddenly there was news about Matteo Ricci. The Philippine Governor sighed and quickly ordered a batch of gold and silver to send it to Guangzhou as Ricci's activity funds.

The servants and friends of Qu Rukui were also honest and sent money to Matteo Ricci honestly. After Matteo Ricci thanked him, he asked Qu Rukui to give him some advice on how to manage the Chinese officialdom. He had seen some missionaries at the bottom to manage the middle and upper levels of the church, but he didn't know much about the Chinese officialdom.

Qu Rukui guided him little by little how to manage interpersonal relationships and follow the clues to the eunuch who had the right to decide.

The eunuch got a bad job this time and went to Southeast Asia, which made him half-dead. Because there was no place to send him on the way, local officials were not in a hurry to please him. Some of them were eager to get promoted and make money, and most of the officials did not miss him.

When leaving the palace, we have always been a direct train for eunuchs to get rich. As long as there are local dispatches, especially those in the south and southeastern coastal areas, we can definitely make a fortune. We can earn money in the future by going out. However, if there are no local dispatches, we will be a little short of it.

No one needs you to say good things in front of the emperor, and there is no handle in hand. Other officials are not panicked, and there are some people who do not want to lose money and avoid disasters. Except for the officials in the place where the eunuchs temporarily live on the way, most of them do not need to ask for a meeting with a shameless face, and eunuchs do not have much income.

This time, this was even more so. I went to Luzon to find Jinshan. This kind of mission was purely for suffering, and there was not much oil and water. Before I went back, Matteo Ricci appeared and gave it several boxes of gold and silver. The eunuch's eyes were dazzled.

"Well, it's not bad, hahaha, Mr. Qu looks down on our family so much. Our family is just doing things for Mr. Wansui. What does Mr. Wansui say? What are we going to do? One is not good. Mr. Wansui is angry and we won't even protect our lives. This time, I will do things for Mr. Wansui, saying that he is going to Luzon to find gold and silver mountains.

Oh, don't tell jokes. Those who spread the news all thought they were Xiao Zhennan, Luzon was Japan, and they were all gold and silver. They were nonsense! We went up and walked around, and our feet were ground into blood bubbles, and we didn't even see a grain of gold and sand. This was nothing but nonsense. A group of people who were crazy about money were playing tricks on Long Live! We wanted them to look good when we went back!"

Qu Rukui understood, Matteo Ricci also understood, and the matter was done.

Matteo Ricci finally let go of his hanging heart, while Qu Rukui curled his lips disdainfully.

These eunuchs were all stinky, but they were just a little better. They took money and did things as their main business. They were very concerned about their reputation. They usually did not dare to collect money if they could not do it, for fear of ruining their signatures and smashing their jobs and slapping them for other eunuchs. Their future will be miserable.

His words meant that the court would never launch troops against Luzon.

Then the Ming court will solve this problem. Next, it depends on Xiao Ruxun's side.
Chapter completed!
