    There is a street in Xincheng, South District of Beijing, dedicated to the establishment of embassies for various vassal states, vassal states, colonies, foreign countries, etc. Here are gathered the embassies of the Korean embassy, ??the Japanese embassy, ??and the three vassal states of Luzon, as well as the embassies of Ningguo,  The embassies of Tang, Chu, and other Ming vassal states, as well as the offices in Beijing of colonies such as the Governor of Ceylon, the Governor of South Africa, and the Governor of Bangladesh, were established here.

    In addition, there are embassies set up in the capital by Spain, Persia, Egypt, the Khassi Khanate, Siam, Sulu and other countries that have diplomatic relations with the Ming Dynasty.

    This street also gathers a large number of foreigners, so this street is also called Waifan Street by the old and young men in the capital, which means they are all outsiders, people from the vassal country and so on.

    Duke Silva, the Spanish ambassador to the Ming Empire, has been in Ming Dynasty for more than two years. He belongs to the Spanish royal family and was not originally a duke. However, as an envoy sent to the Ming Empire, he was specially given the title of duke by the King of Spain.

    As usual, he was awakened by the bells of the clock tower. He got up from the soft spring bed and looked at his wife beside him. She was still sleeping at this moment.

    After coming to Daming for more than two years, Duke and Mrs. Silva have gradually become accustomed to life in Daming. They put on their clothes, came to the window, opened the curtains, and the winter sunshine came into view. The streets were already bustling with activity.  .

    The job of Spanish Minister to the Ming Dynasty is really easy to do, because the relationship between Spain and the Ming Dynasty is very good, and the two sides were once allies.

    Moreover, during the war between Spain and France, England and Portugal, although the Ming Dynasty did not directly participate in the war, it also provided a lot of help. It directly dispatched the navy to hunt down pirates, attack the maritime power of France and England, and sold arms and weapons to Spain.  They also provided loans to Spain and so on.

    These are enough to show that the relationship between Ming Dynasty and Spain is a very good relationship, which makes Duke Silva's life very easy.

    Here in the capital, there is basically nothing to do. We drink tea, read newspapers, go to the theater every day to watch Ming Dynasty dramas, or go to watch football or horse racing.

    Life here in the Ming Dynasty is easier and more convenient than in Spain, especially in the capital of the Ming Dynasty. The roads are basically cement roads, extending in all directions, and the four-wheeled carriages are very comfortable.

    Now there are trains, which have been built to Shanxi in the west, to Shandong in the south, and to Liaodong and the grasslands in the north. Traveling is extremely convenient.

    The cities of the Ming Dynasty are very different from those in Europe. The cities here are very clean and tidy, unlike European cities, which are smelly and dirty. You have to be careful when walking, and you have to look up from time to time to see if there is anyone there.  Suddenly a pot of something unspeakable fell down.

    After washing up, Silva habitually came to Tingyuxuan Teahouse to have morning tea.

    "Duke Silva, is it the same as usual?"

    He is a regular customer of Tingyuxuan. Of course, because Tingyuxuan is located in Waifan Street, it receives many foreigners, so it is not unusual.

    For example, Karim, the ambassador of the Persian Empire to the Ming Empire, is also a frequent visitor here. He comes here to drink morning tea almost every day. The two of them got to know each other after going back and forth.

    The Persians and the Ottoman Empire are feuding, and the relationship between Spain and the Ottoman Empire is not good. This is based on the principle that the enemy of the enemy is a friend. Silva and Karim also have a good relationship.

    "Silva, you are here~"

    Karim drinks morning tea while reading the newspaper. Now that he has arrived in Daming, this has almost become a habit. If he doesn¡¯t drink morning tea or read the newspaper every day, his whole body will feel uncomfortable.

    "Is there any big news?"

    Silva sat down opposite Karim casually and asked.

    The waiter at Ting Yuxuan soon brought over the Longjing tea that Silva liked to drink, the dumplings, spicy noodles, steamed buns and the latest Tomorrow Morning News.

    "Do you know about the visit of Ali Pasha, the Grand Vizier of the Ottoman Empire, to the Ming Dynasty?"

    Karim put down the newspaper in his hand and said with a very ugly expression.

    ¡°I know, it was even published in the newspaper and was exclusively interviewed by the Ming Dynasty Morning Post.¡±

    Duke Silva nodded and said: "However, there is nothing to worry about. The Ottoman Empire massacred tens of thousands of Ming people, and the Ming Empire's army also massacred hundreds of cities in the Ottoman Empire. The hatred between them is deep."

    "Even if they want to have a good relationship with the Ming Empire, it may not be easy. Your Persian Empire and the Daming Empire have a good relationship. The Ming Empire also needs your Persian Empire to contain the Ottoman Empire and prevent the Ottoman Empire from continuing to expand eastward."

    &nbspThey hurriedly drove to the Ministry of Rites of the Ming Empire, found Fu Han, the Minister of Rites, and strongly expressed their dissatisfaction to the Ming Dynasty, demanding that the Ming Empire must cancel this huge arms trade with the Ottoman Empire.  .

    "Sir, the Ottoman Empire is too aggressive. With so many advanced arms and weapons, the Ottoman Empire will inevitably launch a war of aggression. The Ming Empire should not sell these powerful arms and weapons to the Ottoman Empire."

    "Duke Silva and Ambassador Karim, I am very clear about the purpose of your visit. You are simply worried that after the Ottoman Empire obtains these arms and weapons, it will become more powerful and pose a threat to you."

    "But this transaction has been signed and cannot be changed or canceled. If you feel threatened, you can buy more!"
