Vol 6 Chapter 90: Great sail

The sky is still gray, although the rain has stopped, but can not see the sun.
Tiego walked along the Royal Avenue, and after a while, he stopped and looked back at the monastery behind him.
Thiago didn't know if the princess was looking at him behind the window in her room at this time, but he couldn't help but look back.
Even now he still doesn't believe what he has done, or even if he has arrived in Lisbon and after so long, he doesn't believe that he actually participated in such a conspiracy.
The word conspiracy is not necessarily a variation, it means more an undecided trick than a special word for the villain, and Thiego does not consider himself a villain, but even then he is still for himself Was surprised by his boldness.
Although the couple's two kings looked like, he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, but he heard a lot.
Ruthless and ruthless is the most appropriate description of them. Although Queen Isabella is a woman, she has the wisdom and courage to lose nothing to men, and her husband King Ferdinand is a near-perfect ruler Now, this couple is the common supreme of Castile and Aragon, and in the future, if these two countries merge into one, they will be the masters who rule almost the vast majority of the Iberian Peninsula.
When did you actually participate in a conspiracy that tried to overthrow the couple?
Tiego was surprised by his experience, but he was even more unbelievable as if he was so logically trapped. After all, this is not speculative business, but a head-to-head business. If you earn it, it will fly. If you lose it, you will die.
But perhaps because of this, Tiego had a kind of excitement that he could not conceal, and he remembered the strange words that Alexander had said to him before.
"Tiego, I think maybe one day you will become a Chancellor of the Treasury, but it may also be the most special one in history."
Chancellor of the Exchequer, this is definitely something that Thiego had never thought of before. When Alexander said this to him, he felt new, but now he suddenly felt that perhaps this dreamy ideal might not become a real reality.
Tiego turned excitedly and continued to move forward. He can only move forward now. No matter what the so-called ideal drive or something else, the road under him has been paved. The only thing he can do is Keep going.
Returning to his residence, Tiego saw the captain of the merchant ship Berio Marcori. The captain seemed a little excited. He turned around in circles and saw Tiego came back. Immediately stopped and looked at him.
"Oh, you're here." Thiego was not very enthusiastic. If he had been somewhat interested in communicating with such a person who had participated in a great expedition before, he now felt that it was no big deal.
After all, he was involved in the man who tried to overthrow the two kings.
Makoliri didn't seem to pay attention to the change between Thiego's attitude. He grabbed the curled soft cap in his left hand and clenched his sword in the crotch with his right hand. He asked excitedly: "I'm here to ask When will our expedition begin? I have to know that I am ready. Although it has only been two months since I came back, I have been a little bit disgusted with land. I want to go back to the sea, where is the site. "
Tiego inadvertently glanced at Marcori ’s already bloated belly, which was the result of his being banished by various banquets and his own gifts from other people during this time. This person was indeed in Lisbon during this time. It ’s a very good mix. If Da Gama has n’t come back, he must still be a guest of the Lisbon merchants and nobles.
But now Da Gama is back, with more gold, ivory, spices and gems, and more importantly, a complete route chart of the new route, which makes the original radiant Makoli Become overshadowed.
So maybe his eagerness to return to the sea could coax the women of the noble merchant's house, but this could not impress Tiego.
"Soon, the family is 6 months longer, maybe even earlier." Thiego gestured for Marcori to sit down, and then looked carefully at the excited captain in front of him, he knew that this person could not hide his joy. It was because he thought of the benefits that an adventure led by himself would bring him.
"Is it so fast?" Marcori asked some unexpectedly, although he was really anxious to start a new adventure, but it was a year after he wanted to come here as soon as possible. After all, all kinds of preparations are really It's too complicated. What's more important is that although the expedition is funded by the businessman in front of you, it will require the support of the king to make it happen. In this way, things will become more complicated.
"Yes, rest assured, we will prepare everything for you. All you have to do is strictly carry out the tasks we have arranged for you."
"Mission?" The captain suddenly became alert. He looked carefully at Tiego, hoping he could make the words clearer. "I know that my task is to find more routes to the east based on the Dagama route. New route, but is there anything else I need to do besides these? "
"Yes," Thiegos thought for a moment. He felt that he would have to say the order of Lord Earl at once. Perhaps this person could not accept it, or even Thiego himself could not understand why Lord Earl could Considering so many things,
you have to do not only discover new trade routes, but also establish enough long-term stable trade sites and solid contact lines in the local area. We will send people to help you in these matters. We will ask you for a suitable status in front of the king, because only in this way will it be easier for you to perform your duties. Do you think the title of Eastern Trade Director is more suitable for you? "
Marcolily showed a surprised look. When Manuel I awarded Dagama the title of "Portuguese Navy Commander in the East", Marcolili once did not sleep well all night because of jealousy. He felt that he did Not much less than Da Gama, but except for the short glory before Da Gama did not return, nowadays people are only talking about the great explorer, but he is about to forget him.
Now seeing someone who is not only willing to support him to complete an adventure that is entirely his own, but even willing to support him to become a person who can resist the Dammam Chamber, which makes Marcori feel like he is dreaming.
"Of course, it may take some time. After all, the king's permission is needed to get this title." Thiego said, looking at the seemingly chaotic site far away from the window.
It was the site of the Jeronimos Monastery, which was personally surveyed by Manuel I.
Manuel I was a fanatical believer, and his second wife, Maria of Aragon, daughter of Istia Bella of Castile, was even a crazy fanatic.
The couple had a near-paranoid enthusiasm for building churches, and in order to build a cathedral that is the most glorious in Portuguese history, Manuel I, despite the opposition of many ministers, insisted on spending a huge sum of nearly sky-high prices in Lisbon Capital construction of the Jeronimos Monastery.
This decision was fully supported by his wife, Maria of Aragon. They stubbornly decided to withdraw one-tenth of the national tax each year as a source of this expenditure, and how much the monastery will cost According to the calculations of some experts, it may take a full two years of Portuguese revenue to complete this goal until the completion of the construction.
What such a huge project needs is not just huge wealth, but a new way to provide them with financial support for many years. It is precisely because of this that Manuel I will not be so urgent soon after he has just enthroned. Unbearable attempts to open up new routes.
"Relax, we will find a way to help you achieve this wish." Thiego smiled and said to Marcori that he had received clear instructions from the Earl of the Lord, so he is now actively with those Portuguese nobles Businessmen deal with each other, and he believes that these people will soon help him speak in front of the king eager to make huge profits on the new route. After all, this can be said to be a good thing that everyone is looking forward to now.
After sending away the delighted Marcori, Thiegeau returned to his study on the second floor of his residence.
This is his personal territory, neither the servant nor the assistant can come in without permission.
Going to the wall to open a dark box, and taking out a book from inside, Tiego returned to the table and began to decipher the letter just sent according to the marks on the codebook.
This is the latest order Alexander gave him. In this secret order, Alexander asked him to pay special attention to a man named Amerigo Vespsi in Castile.
"This is a Florentine. I used to talk to his family's relatives in Florence before. In their description, this is an adventurous person who likes to brag. Although his experience as a banker makes him good at calculation, but His adventurous and showy personality keeps him from staying in a place for a long time. I want you to note that this person is also interested in sailing and adventure, and because he has enough financial resources, he may have already participated. In support of a new route discovered by Columbus supported by Queen Castilla, I hope you can pay close attention to this person ’s movements, if possible, it is best to establish a personal friendship with him, trust me dear This little investment of my friends will not disappoint you, if possible, or even allow you to stand with a lot of people destined to be named Liu Mingshi in the history. As far as you are in Lisbon, Those assistants can be assigned to your assistants, you only need to keep in touch with them from time to time, trust me Love Tiego, not everything must be done by our own hands, otherwise we will fall into those tedious little things and cannot extricate themselves, so learning to trust your people is a good choice, just like my trust in you. Knowing that you may have more and more responsibilities in the future. If you ca n’t develop such good habits now, you will be exhausted. I do n’t want my future finance minister to fall down so early. "
Tiego shook his head in doubt. He did n’t know where the news came from, but he did n’t doubt the count ’s judgment, because all the instructions of the count have so far reached the correct guess purpose.
Even if it is not a reliable business to buy new routes with FTA profits and 240,000 florin huge sums, Tiego did not hesitate to perform according to the order. As for this name, Amerigo. Although the people of Vespsi did not know what he was doing, but since Lord Earl attached great importance to him, he did not care about getting close to this person.
What's more, his task in Portugal has been almost completed, and the feeling of homesickness that has been away from home for a long time makes him willing to take this opportunity to return to his hometown of Balearic to see.
As for the Minister of Finance mentioned by Alexander as a joke in his heart, Thiago did not pay too much attention in the past. His attention at this time was focused on the Florentine named Amerigo Vespsi. He wanted to know everything about this person as soon as possible, in order to complete the task that the count had said of establishing a personal friendship with him.
One day after the third week of September, Thiegos quietly left Lisbon, just as he did when he first came, without much attention, but this is a large woven with large sums of money that has been sown in Lisbon in the past year. The net started to become active. The net was everything from ordinary businessmen to prominent nobles, and even a few waitresses who were trusted by Mary of Queen Aragon were snagged because they got some benefits from it. Among them, for a time from the civilians to the court, the clamor for the request to organize the second new route expedition immediately, but in the face of such enthusiasm and the financial gap of the Jeronimos Monastery that really needs a lot of wealth to support, Mannu El I also began to wait for the second expedition.
At this time, after many people's "enthusiastic recommendation", the name of Captain Marcori in the Dagama expedition naturally appeared in front of Manuel I.
The King, who was going to choose carefully again, was a little frightened by people's eagerness for new routes. He had to consider organizing a new expedition to go to the East again, so as to choose the commander of the expedition. The selection was somewhat hasty.
As the captain of the Berio, Marcolili quickly stood out from the selection of many people because of his rich sailing experience and previous experience in exploring a new route. Compared with him, other people are indeed much worse.
When Manuel I finally decided to make Marcori as the commander of the second expedition, no one knew that a navigator named Cabral was destined to be the second in the history of his original fate. The honor of the route pioneers said goodbye.
However, this is not known for the time being. Tiego is traveling by boat along the winding coastline of the Iberian Peninsula, bypassing Gibraltar all the way to the Mediterranean Sea. He has to go home to see his wife and children.
Just when Tiego went home to look at his anxious desperation, as far away as Bologna in Italy, there were people who were sighing for a long time.
As an occupier, Busaco has been in Bologna for many days. From the inexplicable excitement at the beginning to the calmness of the later, and now it has become a little irritable. Busaco ’s days in Bologna can only be used as "poor and tasteless" To describe.
Bologna is a city of quiet and passion. The rich academic atmosphere here seems to permeate every corner of the city. Often walking on the street, you can see someone loudly preaching his understanding of a master ’s insights on the street. Or dissent, you can also see the female students wearing the purple cloak specially made by the University of Bologna that you will never see in other cities passing by on the street.
The open academic atmosphere and the luck of being able to successfully escape war disasters for many years as the direct territory of the Pope have given the city its unique peculiar charm.
But all this does not seem to meet Busaco's taste.
The previous "humiliated" experience at the University of Bologna made Busaco really unable to raise any favors for the city.
Brigitte, whom Busako had visited before, met a few times later. On two occasions, he was accompanied by his daughter, Gina. To his surprise, Busako seemed to have a feeling for Queen Naples. Sha has such a strong interest that she has found Busako more than once and asked him something about Rusha.
Although not beautiful, but with a very smart mind and serious attitude, the contact with the master daughter made Busaco's heart agitated a little.
But Busaco knew that he was thinking wildly. He still has a wife and children at home. He is obviously not qualified to think about these things, but these are still second. The real key thing is that he is very clear. Female college student can't take a fancy to him.
Busako became a bit anxious ~ EbookFREE.me ~ He longed to see the girl every day, but often did not know what to say to her after meeting, after all, her knowledge to Busaco It's just like God's revelation to the saints, which is not understandable by his mortal.
Gina Brigitte seems to have noticed the unusual feelings of Busako towards her, but the girl who seems to be armed with reason and calmness has not been ecstatic due to the obsession of her by an occupier, nor because of Busa Ke is a vulgar disdain for him. She is interested in the news I heard from Busako, and she is brewing a big plan for herself.
In mid-September, when a war broke out between the two countries in the north after a trial of confrontation, Busako also received an order from Barendi, in which Barendi was given concisely and concisely. He gave instructions: "Be prepared at all times to hand over the city to the envoy of the Vatican to Bologna."
After more than a month of stalemate, Alexander VI compromised.
