A month later, Nikan finally recovered from his grief.

At this time, we happened to encounter the invasion of the Crow people who had just occupied Wyoming in later generations. Nikan personally led 300 cavalry to attack and defeat them. Under the attack of the "cavalry" they had never seen before, the Crow people were defeated. Most of them knelt down and surrendered in horror. Then Sun Demao and the infantry led by Sun Desheng captured many prisoners.

Nikan doesn't want to let these prisoners go.

In the vast Utah and Nevada desert, the new roads prepared by the Great Xia Kingdom will become their only destination. Just like the Spanish who dealt with the rest of the Inca Empire at the Peru Potosi Silver Mine, they will be their only destination.

Afterwards, Nikan asked Sun Deen to stay in Nanpa and took Sun Defeng and Sun Dejung north. Along the way, he arrived at Kuskiya City near the Rockies, Kennevik and Oregon, and paid tribute to Chen Qixin in Kennevik, and finally returned to Oregon.

Oregon (Portland), as a place where large sea boats can reach, is still the current Governor of Yingzhou to handle government affairs.

This place can be connected by land or sea.

In his "palace", Nican met Alfonso again, the illegitimate son of Cervantes, the famous writer in the Spanish Kingdom.

In the original history, the specifications of the Governor General of Peru have always been higher than those of the Governor General of Mexico (New Spain). However, due to the emergence of the Great Xia Kingdom, the situation has been reversed, and the status of the Governor General of Mexico has been higher than that of Peru.

The next step for the Governor of Peru is the Governor of Mexico.

The morning at South Study was a little stuffy, but compared to Golden State, Oregon's climate was a bit pleasant.

Alfonso, thirty-nine years old, looked at Nikan sitting high in the main seat, and his heart was also turbulent.

"This person has a similar face to that of the native Americans, but his skin is lighter, his expression seems to be loose, but it actually contains sharpness. In the past, I had many interactions with people from the Ming Dynasty, but my expression never looked like this person."

"I have seen the Moors, Ottomans, and great cannibals in the Tianfang World, and also seen the Crimeans who are still mainly nomadic. They have traveled all over the European countries, but have never seen anyone like him."

"I originally wanted to discuss matters in Formosa and Manila with him, but this person seems not interested in this."

"Ahem," Alfonso coughed lightly, dragging Nikan back from his usual immersion.

"Your Majesty", seeing Nikan open his eyes, Alfonso said: "The Manchus on Kyushu Island have captured the northern part of Formosho Island. Are you going to capture the entire island, or just stop?"

Nikan laughed and said, "How did they do what they Manchus do, how did I know? What a joke!"

But Alfonso shook his head, "Now the entire East Asian community knows that the Manchus came to Japan by His Majesty. Most of them retreated from Japan to Formosoo Island... It was also arranged by His Majesty."

"You have to make one thing clear," Nikan sat upright, "The Manchus and the Qing Dynasty they established were destroyed by my army. As for them retreating from Kyushu Island to Taiwan...Folmosho Island, it was because of the pressure from the Japanese. What's the matter with me?"

"What's more, the entire Formosho Island is now the territory of the Dutch, what's the matter with you Spanish?"

Alfonso curled his lips in his heart and said to himself, "You really have it." But he said, "When I went to Jeju Island to trade from Manila, I learned that Your Majesty was going to see me. What was going on? Your Majesty has never said it on the ocean. It should be possible to say it now."

Nikan said, "Well, I won't go around the circle anymore. I ask you, are you waiting for the Spanish to occupy the entire American territory south of Mexico except Brazil, can you take care of it?"

Alfonso felt nervous and thought to himself: "The whole world knows this man's desire for land. Did he focus on the American land under the command of the Kingdom of Great Spain? No, no matter what the conditions are, he cannot agree to him. The territory under the Kingdom of Great Spain is given by the Lord of the Pope, so how can he be easily given up?"

"I ask you," Nikan said with a hint of inadvertent joking, "There are only a few million people in the Kingdom of Spain. How can you manage such a vast territory? For you, besides Mexico's grain, Lima's port, Potosi silver mine, and Chile's nitride mine, what else is worth remembering?"

Alfonso's mentality was furious, "This person only knows clearly the main production of Mexico and Peru. It seems that there must be traitors in the Governor's jurisdiction, and after returning, he must report to the Governor."

But I thought of it, "This person said that there are major issues related to the future of the Kingdom of Spain to discuss with me, most of which are related to the territory of America, and said that he could help the Kingdom of Spain to lead the way in Europe. In fact, what does these matters have to do with me? However, as a close confidant of the Governor of Mexico and a close confidant of the king. Facing the enemy in America and Asia, I can communicate with his emperor at close range and learn about his next move, which is my duty."

So he asked, "When I was on the boat the last time, Your Majesty said that there were great benefits to the Kingdom of Spain. Please make it clear."

"Ahem," Nikan thought about it and finally said it.

"Who does the Spaniards hate the most in Europe?"

"Naturally Protestant"

“Where are the Protestants?”

Alfonso felt a little nervous, and seemed to have some sense of where the topic this person was about to lead.

"Netherlands, England"

"How is your country's relationship with the two countries?"

"It's still good"

"Barring", Nikan suddenly stood up, shocking the Spanish translator and Alfonso around him.

"The war between the Dutch and you lasted for about a hundred years. It was officially independent in the Treaty of Westphalia. How could it be replaced by the word "good"? What's more, your country was defeated repeatedly at sea. Soldiers, warships, and merchant ships lost countless losses. Why do you speak like this? Is it too far from Europe?!"

“…”

"And England, the navy you are waiting for has been defeated many times. Merchant ships are losing countless times in the Atlantic Ocean and the Caribbean Sea. How can you say 'It's good?'"

"Ahem," Seeing that the key point was approaching, Alfonso calmed down and said boldly: "Why does Your Majesty mean?"

"You have also seen my fleet of Daxia Kingdom. If you can help you defeat the Netherlands, England, or both, or both, would you please?"

"Of course I'm willing"

Alfonso was overjoyed. Although he did not show it on his face, he recognized this in his heart.

"The Kingdom of Spain has a vast colony that is the best in Europe on the surface, but the king is still extremely poor. In addition to internal factors, the Dutch and British intercepting sailboats on the Atlantic Ocean are also external factors that cannot be ignored. Unfortunately, although our Spanish Kingdom is strong, it cannot gain an absolute advantage in naval warfare."

"If the Daxia Kingdom helps, there will be no problem to defeat either side. At that time, the silk, porcelain, saltpeter and silver ingots of Ming Kingdom will be at least most of them safely returned to Spain when they pass through the Caribbean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean. In this way, His Majesty's financial difficulties will be greatly relieved, and he will not borrow money from the great nobles to make a living."

I thought again, "If this person can raise this question, he must have liked a certain territory in my Great Spanish Kingdom. What should I do? Well, let's try it first. Anyway, it will be decided by the Governor, and then report it to His Majesty the King. Once you go and come, at least two years have passed."

"At that time, I will say that the land is easy to talk about, and help the Kingdom defeat the Dutch, and then talk about the English, and discuss specific matters with them after two years."

"But this state-owned machine warship only lasts only one month at a fastest between the Pacific Ocean, while the Manila's large sailing ships take at least three months. Such a powerful weapon can be fought against by the Kingdom warships. Once the promise is not fulfilled, it will be bad if they are sold and went south to attack the Mexican territory."

"Ahem," thinking of this, he said: "Your Majesty has taken a fancy to it, so you might as well say it clearly that you can't make decisions, but you can go back and report to the Governor. As for whether the Governor agrees, that's another matter."

Nikan laughed and said, "According to my news, the current Governor of Mexico has a relationship with the king, right? It's not as good as you."

“…”

Nikan continued: "Don't worry, I just need you to wait for a port in Peru, and the land between the port and the Andes is about 300 miles long from east to west and about 50 miles wide from north to south. I have two plans here, one is Panama. Haha, I heard that this place is very close to the Caribbean Sea. If this place can be given to the Great Xia Kingdom, it is best."

"If it really doesn't work, then give your country's Port Guayaquil or Port Machara in Ecuador Province, and you can live in one place."

When Alfonso heard this, he was shocked.

"Why does this person know so much about the geographical structure of my Peruvian jurisdiction? Panama is indeed the narrowest place on the American continent. If it weren't for the deep tropical jungle, it would be the most appropriate for them to build ports there to replace Alpurco and Veracruz?"

"No, Panama is too critical, and we must never let the powerful Daxia Kingdom get it."

"Ecuador is not a key place in Peru's jurisdiction. The Port of Guayaquil is a major port with several jurisdictions. As for Port of Machara, it doesn't matter whether the kingdom has any."

"But what is this person going to do to take these two ports? You must ask clearly!"

"Ahem," Alfonso resisted his inner impulse and tried to say in a calm tone: "Can you ask what the purpose of your Majesty wants to get these places?"

Nikan said carelessly: "The Kingdom of Daxia will definitely open up maritime trade with Europe in the future. At present, it seems that going south from the west coast of North America will be a shortcut. There are so many smoke waves along the way, and there is no need to stop without a suitable port and replenish supplies, so..."

Alfonso thought about it, but he really couldn't think of what purpose he had.

"Your Majesty, this matter is very important and cannot be decided by the rest of the country, but if your Majesty sorts Panama, Guayaquil, and Machara, how will your Majesty arrange it?"

"It's better to be Panama, followed by Guayaquil, and Machara the most. The place is different and the conditions are different."

"I understand, but these places are all territory given to the kingdom by the Pope, so it may be difficult."

"Hahaha", Nikan laughed, then waved to Alfonso, "Get closer"

When Alfonso approached, Nikan said: "I have a way, that is, rent, which does not involve signing a contract for sale, just rent it, five years, ten years, fifty years, one hundred years, all is OK."
