    Along with Zhao Houhou and Jiang Liang, they arrived in Spain. At the same time, Carlster and Zhao Houhou also brought many things from the Ming Dynasty to Spain.

    These goods and news also spread throughout Europe at an unimaginable speed.

    They found a rich country in the far east.

    This country is called the Ming Empire.

    It has vast and boundless land. It is said that from the northernmost to the southernmost part of the Ming Dynasty, it would take more than two months to ride a horse across the north and south.

    Its territory is said to be larger than all the countries in Europe combined.

    It is said that the population of the Ming Empire exceeded 10 million. There was a city called Tianjin with a population of more than 5 million, which was larger than the population of many European countries.

    The Ming Empire in the East is extremely wealthy.

    Their envoys presented a full-length mirror to the Queen of Spain, which became her favorite treasure. It is said that the French King offered a sky-high price of two million francs to buy this full-length mirror from the Queen of Spain, but  He was rejected by the Queen of Spain.

    It is said that people in the Ming Dynasty were using something called soap. When you take a bath with soap, you will have a charming fragrance on your body.

    It is said that in the distant Ming Empire, their cities had no night. At night, the lights were brightly lit and everything was very bright.

    In short, various legends about the Ming Empire spread rapidly across Europe, and Marco Polo's Travels once again sold out. Countless people were looking at Marco Polo's Travels while quickly asking for information on how to get to the Ming Dynasty.  Get in touch with people from Ming Dynasty.

    The monarchs of some European countries even sent people to Spain as soon as possible to invite these Ming people to visit their countries. They wanted to meet these Ming people in person and listen to them talk about the Ming Dynasty.

    The Ming Dynasty in this era, in the minds of Europeans, is synonymous with wealth, prosperity, prosperity and power.

    With the spread of Marco Polo¡¯s travels in Europe, countless people are yearning for the Ming Dynasty, eager to go to the country of silk and porcelain and obtain fascinating silk and porcelain.

    The emergence of the Ming Dynasty triggered an explosion throughout Europe. In addition to European businessmen, the most excited people were also those astronomical scientists.

    The Ming Dynasty is in the far east.

    But Spain went west all the way to the Americas, where they actually met the Ming people.

    It is said that the Indians in America are a branch of the Ming people, and the entire America is where the Ming people exiled their branch.

    The distance from Daming to the Americas is about the same as that from Europe to the Americas, and it also takes more than two months by boat.

    In other words, if you go eastward from the Ming Dynasty, you can also reach Europe in the west. If you go westward from the European side, you can also reach the Ming Dynasty in the east.

    In addition, the Portuguese navigator Vasco da Gama not long ago opened a route to Tianzhu. From Tianzhu, they can be sure that the Ming Dynasty is in the east, and there is a connection between Tianzhu and the Ming Dynasty.

    So you can be 100% sure that the world we live in is a round ball. No matter which direction you are from, as long as you keep moving in this direction, you can eventually return to the starting point.

    The world we live in is a big ball.

    European astronomers and geographers are all crazy.

    Although they have already deduced that the world they live in is a ball, it has never been confirmed. Some people even proposed a global route to prove that the earth is a big ball.

    Now there is no need to carry out global routes, they can also be sure that the world we live in is a big sphere.

    European astronomers and geographers were so excited that they even began to make globes to depict all the places they now knew.

    Of course, those who are really excited are the European businessmen.

    Lisbon, Portugal.

    The Portuguese and Spanish have always been at odds with each other, and this was also the case during the maritime era.

    The Spaniards have always believed in sailing westward to the distant Ming Dynasty, where gold is everywhere, while the Portuguese believe in opening up routes to the east and heading to the distant east.

    So when Spain began to colonize the Americas, the Portuguese were also opening up routes to the East.

    Starting from the second half of the fifteenth centuryIt is said that when he was heading to the Indian Ocean, he accidentally arrived at the eastern bulge of the South American continent (later known as Brazil) because of strong winds in the South Atlantic.

    Later, he continued sailing east, bypassed the Cape of Good Hope and arrived in the Indian Ocean. After careful study, they also believed that there must be a huge continent in the south of America. This is why the Portuguese later occupied Brazil in the Americas.  Because Cabral was the first to arrive in Brazil and also erected the cross with the Portuguese royal emblem there and also declared the area to belong to the King of Portugal.

    "Great Captain, I think you are right, and we will all support you fully."

    ¡°Take the letter I wrote to His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Empire and set out, bringing back endless wealth to our great Portugal!¡±

    Manuel I laughed happily after hearing this, and immediately appointed Cabral. As for the surrounding nobles and businessmen, they applauded. They only had to invest and wait to share the wealth.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
