Valley Emperor

Vol 2 Chapter 1904: In front of Datang people 1 must be decent

When Europeans first arrive in Ceuta, their first impression is often that Ceuta is very big!

Even when they are far from the coastline, these Danes can see many buildings on the coastline in the distance, and from these buildings, they can see how big the city is.

Going forward, they just saw the huge port area.

On the many docks in the port area, there are many large and small ships, including huge steel ships and small sailing wooden ships. To put it simply, there are at least hundreds of ships parked on the docks at this time.

Many of them are still thousands of tons of large ships of the Tang Dynasty.

Huge port, countless ships, this is the first impression of the Danes on the port of Ceuta.

And when the ship approached the coastline, they saw a tall and numerous building standing by the sea!

It was a massive building, not a tower, but a real tall building.

It is the landmark building of Ceuta Port. The 'European Hotel' invested and built by Datang businessman Jiang Liqun has six floors and a total height of 24 meters. It also has two three-storey podiums on the left and right. The total floor space is relatively high, and the visual effect is quite good.

In order to build this European hotel, Jiang Liqun spent a lot of money, because to build such a building, all kinds of materials needed, from steel, cement, to glass windows, tiles, and even a faucet, had to be transported from the mainland. The material cost is many times more expensive than building it directly in the country.

However, just after it was built and put into operation, Jiang Liqun became the most famous Tang merchant in Ceuta and even the whole of Europe.

Because the European Hotel is the first hotel built by Datang in the overseas territory of the Tang Dynasty, it mainly provides high-end luxury accommodation, banquets, conferences and other functions.

This high-end venue, even in the local area, will become a local landmark, a place where dignitaries come and go.

Not to mention that in Ceuta and other Datang people, it is still a wild place. Many Datang people who came to Europe, especially the Datang businessmen who came from Shanghai, Guangzhou and other big cities, saw this Europe. The hotel is just so welcoming.

After many Tang businessmen or dignitaries came to Ceuta, the first choice for accommodation was European hotels.

There are many wealthy businessmen, dignitaries and dignitaries. As the owner of a European restaurant, Jiang Liqun has also changed from an ordinary wealthy businessman in the past to one of the most famous Tang businessmen in Europe.

Just because he is the owner of a European restaurant!

Then a few of the Danes in the fleet were fortunate enough to stay at the European Hotel, including Earl Carlton, the team leader of the Danes this time.

This Earl of Carlton is also an extraordinary person in the Kingdom of Denmark. His Earl title is not inherited, but he has worked hard.

In the early years, he was only the son of a baron, and he was also the second son. He could not even inherit his father's baron title and small village.

However, after the Tatars invaded the Kingdom of Denmark, his father and brother died on the battlefield, so he was able to inherit the title of baron, and continued to fight against the Tatars, making a lot of military exploits, retreating to the Danish Islands. In order to motivate the soldiers, the Danish king was not too stingy with the generals with military exploits.

Carlton was awarded the title of Viscount. Later, in order to provide the combat power of the coalition forces of European countries, Datang specially held an officer training course in Cadiz for young and promising generals from European countries.

Teach them how to fight the Tartars with guns!

Although the professor's things are very primitive, Carlton became the first general in the Kingdom of Denmark to accept and skillfully command an army with flintlock guns.

After returning to China this time, it was naturally reused again. Last year, he was awarded the title of Earl.

Unfortunately, his territory is still on the Danish peninsula, occupied by the Tatars.

This time the Kingdom of Denmark moved to Africa, Earl Carlton was a firm supporter, and Earl Carlton's supportive attitude also showed the attitude of most military nobles in the Kingdom of Denmark.

That is: whoever likes to beat these Tatars, they are quitting anyway!

How good it is to go to Africa, where there are only some uncivilized natives, and it is much easier to bully these natives than to fight the Tatars.

And there is also a very important reason that, once they migrate to Africa, each of these military nobles can obtain a large number of fiefs.

The Kingdom of Denmark is a traditional aristocratic feudal kingdom. These nobles naturally need fiefs. In the early years of war with the Tatars, the Danes lost a large area of ​​their land, but many new military nobles also emerged. , These military nobles all need to be rewarded.

But the Danes have long been unable to come up with enough land to blockade.

It can be said that the final decision of the Kingdom of Denmark to relocate is also the result of the promotion of the military nobles headed by the Earl of Carlton.

They didn't want to fight with the Tatars, they wanted to get a wide fief.

After the Danes decided to move to Africa, Earl Carlton, as a firm supporter, was also one of the few great nobles in the Kingdom of Denmark who had dealt with the Tang people and was familiar with the style of the Tang people. .

After all, in the migration of the Kingdom of Denmark, it is necessary to frequently deal with the Tang people. If you go to a great noble who is not familiar with the Tang people, I am afraid that you will offend the people of the Tang Dynasty in a confused way.

And the people of the Tang Dynasty should not be offended!

Before disembarking, Earl Carlton repeatedly reminded everyone who went ashore with him that they must take a bath, wash and put on clean clothes, and they can't wear traditional clothes, they must wear decent Tang suits.

"It must be cleaned in detail, and your servants must show 12 points of spirit. Every inch of the place must be washed. It is best to use soap!"

"And don't forget the hair, which must also be cleaned in detail!"

"Otherwise, you can't even get off the boat!"

"Also, if you don't want to be regarded as an uncivilized native by the Tang people, you'd better put on a decent Tang suit!"

"You can't run around after going ashore. Datang people have already notified it. Ceuta is a fortress port with many military forbidden areas. After we go ashore, we must go through the designated road to the designated location, and we cannot exceed this range~www. wuxiaspot.com~ Otherwise, once you break into the military forbidden area of ​​the Tang Dynasty, even I can't save you!"

"Another point is that after disembarking, you can't look around, let alone make a fuss. Even if you see something surprising, you have to hold back. We must maintain the dignity of the kingdom."

At this moment, Earl Carlton looked around: "Wait, if anyone loses face to the kingdom in front of the Tang Dynasty, I will make him lose face for the rest of his life!"

In the afternoon of the same day, Earl Carlton and the others, who were dressed in Tang clothes, disembarked from the ship.

After getting off the boat and walking on the trestle, Earl Carlton felt quite good, not because of the cool sea breeze, but because he saw that several Tang people who came to greet him were wearing the same Tang clothes as himself, and one of them was still wearing the same clothes as himself. Bald-headed Tang soldiers.

This gave him the feeling that he and the Tang people were also civilized people, not the barbarians in the eyes of the Tang people.
