The attendant had no choice but to retreat and take the door and knock on it gently. He heard Akunia shouting "Come in" from inside and then pushed the door in again. At this time, Akunia's face could no longer see any signs of anger. She smiled amiablely: "Young man, don't panic. With the omnipotent Lord, nothing can scare the invincible Spanish warriors. Now you can say, what happened?..."

"The Physiological Man, the Physiological Man's Messenger has arrived. The ship, the ship has entered the port..." The attendant became more nervous by Akunia's moodiness and stammered.

"The messenger of the physiological person?" Akunia frowned and said with some displeasure: "What's there to panic about this? This is not the first time that the messenger of the physiological person has come. These physiological people will only bluff and not be mentioned. Let Thomas take people to scare them and drive them away..."

"But...but the physiological messenger that came this time seemed a little different. The Second Lieutenant Marcusi, who went to negotiate with them, said that the physiological messenger who came this time was very tough and asked the Governor to greet him in person..." The attendant glanced at Akunia and said carefully.

"I want me to greet you in person? What a big tone! Where do these physiological people have confidence?" Akunia sneered, stood up and walked to the window. The Governor's Office was on a high place in Manila City, with the window facing the port. Looking at him, Akunia saw Guo Zhiyuan and his big lucky ship. At this time, Guo Zhiyuan was idle and took the country soldiers to practice on the deck. Although the distance was very far, the people on the deck looked only the size of an ant, but the neat queue and the movements of the battle formation were still quite shocking when they looked at it from a high place, which also made Akunia feel that the Ming envoys who came back were indeed a little different.

Although Akunia said it disdainfully, he actually attached great importance to this matter. After the massacre of Manila, the trade ties between Luzon and the Ming Dynasty were basically interrupted, which also caused heavy losses to the Spaniards. Not only did the tax revenues be greatly reduced, but the Ming porcelain, raw silk, silk and other commodities sold in Europe were also cut off.

You should know that before, Manila's import tax levied from Chinese goods accounted for almost 80% of the total import tax, reaching 92.06% at the highest year, with a trade volume of more than 1 million pesos. The reselling of Ming porcelain, raw silk, silk and other goods to Europe made Spanish merchants a lot of money. Now that this path of wealth has suddenly been cut off, the Spaniards also have differences on how to deal with this matter. Although Acunia has supreme power in the Philippines, if he cannot balance the interests of all parties, his position as governor will not be stable. His predecessor Francisco is the best example. Francisco offended too many officials and priests during his term of office. As a result, he was troubled by the special court during his departure and died of illness in Manila.

So Acunia thought about it and thought that she should handle this matter carefully. Since the Spanish invincible fleet was defeated by the British, Spain's national strength was no longer as good as before. Faced with such a huge figure as the Ming Dynasty, he actually had no idea. If the Ming Dynasty was going to go to war with them, it would be fine if it won. If the war was not good, he, the governor, would have to be responsible for this matter.

Thinking of this, Akunia waved to the attendant and whispered to him, asking him to hurry up and notify the Archbishop and the main officials in the royal city of Manila to come to the Governor's Office to discuss matters.

Those who can discuss matters with Acunia are naturally the leading figures sent by Spain to the Philippines. The news in Manila is also very well-informed. They naturally knew the news that the diplomatic envoy sent by the Ming Dynasty arrived at the Manila port as soon as possible, so they rushed to the scene after receiving the news that Acunia asked them to discuss matters. After all, this matter also concerns their vital interests.

As soon as Akunia told the matter, Thomas, the captain of the Royal City Guard of Manila, jumped up immediately and shouted arrogantly: "What's there to talk about with these physiological people? Just use cannons to bomb them away. They dare to ask the Governor to personally meet their rude request? Please give the order from the Governor, and I will lead the Royal City Guard to kill them and snatch their two big ships!"

Thomas is Acunia's nephew. It is naturally because of Acunia's relationship. Before Acunia became the governor of the Spanish Philippines, he was just a low-level officer. When he first tasted the taste of power, Thomas naturally became a little lost. The previous massacre of Manila, Manila, completely aroused his cruel character. His hands were covered with the blood of the Ming people who did business in Luzon. He killed every Ming businessman he saw. Regardless of whether they surrendered or not, many of them were women and children with no power!

Moreover, he also tasted the sweetness from this massacre. In addition to privately plundering the wealth of Chinese people and the spoils rewarded by the royal city, he also got an excellent manor in the suburbs of Manila and Bangasinan, so he was addicted to looting and even thought about Guo Zhiyuan and the others' two large ships!

Akunia looked at Thomas speechlessly. Thomas was a sharp knife in his hand. Loyalty was fine, but the knife was a bit too simple. He could also say that it was done by the natives of the Philippines, but directly killing the diplomatic envoys sent by the Ming Dynasty. The nature would be different, and it would even attract condemnation from the international community. He doubted whether it was appropriate to promote Thomas to such a high position as the captain of the Royal Guard.

As expected, as soon as Thomas finished speaking, he sat in the lower left corner of Acunia. Judge Moga looked at Thomas with contempt and sneered: "Simple mind! The killing of the eighth company's physiognomy has caused our taxes, and our business trade has been greatly damaged. Do you really want to go to war with the physiognomy? This is a big country with a larger area and population than our entire Spanish kingdom. Do you really think that 15,000 soldiers can conquer such a big country? What's more, physiognomy is still useful to us. They not only bring us taxes and wealth, but their minds and skills are also far better than those stupid Philippine natives. Now there are no decent tailors and chefs in the entire royal city. It is difficult to find a real farmer and shepherd outside the city..."

Moga's position in the entire Philippine colonial government system is second only to Acunia and is also a strong contender for the Governor. Naturally, he will not be on the same side as Acunia. It's just that Acunia is cunning. It's not easy for him to find Acunia's fault, so he pointed his finger at Acunia's nephew Thomas. When Thomas just became the captain of the Royal City Guard, he proposed an arrogant plan, saying that he would lead a fleet and 15,000 soldiers to conquer China. As a result, it was said to be a laughing stock. Moga took this matter out and mocked Thomas whenever he caught the opportunity, and actually hit Acunia in the face.

Akunia naturally knew that Moga came for him, and his face looked a little bad, but he had to admit that Moga's words made some sense, and he did not want to start a war with the Ming Dynasty rashly. After all, the Ming Dynasty is not as good as the Philippines. With the troops in his hands, it is impossible to turn the Ming Dynasty into a Spanish colony. Even if he wins, he will suffer heavy losses, so he will not be able to sit steadily as the governor.

So Acunia did not want to argue with Moga on this issue, so she turned her attention to the Archbishop Miguel in the lower right. Although the Archbishop does not belong to the Spanish colonial government system in the Philippines, the influence of the church is everywhere, so Miguel's status is very transcendent. Even Acunia has to give in to him, and his opinions will also affect Acunia's decision-making. She asked Miguel with a smile: "Biography, you have been to the country of physiological preaching and know them the best. What do you think of the arrival of the physiological envoy this time?..."

Miguel tried to sneak into China to preach mission in his early years, but he was driven back as soon as he arrived on the coast. This was his shame. Naturally, he did not want to admit it. Instead, he regarded himself as a Chinese public. Seeing that Akunia took the initiative to seek his opinions, he said proudly: "I did not agree with you to kill the physiological people of the Eighth Company. Although physiological people were backward, they were also God's people. We should educate them and let them return to their fate. Before, I had developed many physiological people in the Eighth Company to become religious people, but in the end you were all killed..."

Everyone present rolled their eyes at Miguel and was very disgusted with Miguel's behavior. These missionaries are so hypocritical. They keep God at their mouths all day long, looking compassionate. Why don't you say that when you divide the wealth of the Ming merchants and the people of the Ming Dynasty? Did you develop those merchants and the people of the Ming Dynasty to be religious people? Didn't you just want to donate the wealth they earned to the church?

Thomas even more rudely mocked: "Biography, have you forgotten that those physiological people drove you out of their kingdom and did not allow you to preach in their kingdom? If you can educate them with your mouth, it would be easier. Isn't it better to let the Bishop meet the messengers of the physiological people on behalf of the Governor and let them give out all their wealth?..."

Akunia also frowned in displeasure and said, "Sir, don't mention the past. We are now discussing how to deal with the messengers sent by physiological people..."

Seeing that he was angry with the public, Miguel coughed awkwardly and said, "I know more about physiological people than you. Physiological people cannot go to war with us. The country of physiological people is now suffering from external troubles and internal troubles. Officials are corrupt and unable to launch a large-scale war. Therefore, the envoys they sent before were just bluffing and did not dare to make excessive demands at all!..."
