The Greatest Village Doctor In The World

Ling Feng was taken aback by Li Huang’s words and asked, "Guests? Where are the guests from?"

"From North America!" Li Huang said.

"Oh?"

Ling Feng was even more stunned, scratched his head and asked, "Did these people cross the ocean for a specific purpose?"

"They claim to be here for an exchange, but I haven’t figured out their true intentions yet. However, since they came from afar and brought many gifts, naturally they have to be entertained." Li Huang said.

Ling Feng murmured an acknowledgment, then nodded, "Alright, then I’ll go have a look. I can serve as a translator!"

Li Chunxi was taken aback, "You understand the language of North Americans?"

"Yeah, haven’t I mentioned before? I can understand a bit of every language in the world." Ling Feng laughed.

Li Chunxi: "..."

Following Li Huang into the main hall, after pausing for a while, the group went to a place specifically designated for receiving foreign envoys.

This was a side hall, not very spacious. Ling Feng followed Li Huang in and saw four people sitting inside, all blond-haired and blue-eyed foreigners, wearing clothes resembling medieval captain outfits.

Ling Feng didn’t know when the Age of Exploration began, but he felt that North America might not be very developed yet, since even though the Age of Exploration had started, they were still in the initial stage of migrating there.

Later, the whole of North America was invaded by Europeans, followed by years of driving out the natives and undertaking tasks such as land reclamation and city building.

However, once seated, Ling Feng suddenly wanted to smack himself on the head, realizing he was thinking about this world’s turning point era, when in fact, several hundred years had already passed!

This is just like jet lag, which hasn’t been adjusted yet!

Seeing the humble smiles on the other side, Ling Feng was puzzled. These people probably harbored no good intentions, right?

It runs in their blood, what good could they possibly be up to?

However, Ling Feng didn’t ask, he simply sat down with Li Huang.

At this moment, Li Huang glanced at the translator brought by the visitors and said solemnly, "The envoys have come from so far away, I trust they have recovered from their journey by now?"

"Yes, Your Majesty. The envoys rested for several days in the Capital City and have now regained their vigor!" the translator said.

"Mm, very well. By the way, this gentleman here is Mr. Ling, who is also proficient in English. You may chat amongst yourselves." Li Huang introduced.

Ling Feng thought, what’s the rush? Introducing now is of no use, let’s listen for a while and then see!

So he smiled and said to the translator, "I’m just passing by today, you all can chat as you please!"

Li Huang glanced at him, instantly understanding Ling Feng’s intentions, thus smiled, "Indeed, Mr. Ling happened to be here today, and decided to drop in!"

"So that’s how it is!"

Despite their words, the editor nevertheless held Ling Feng in higher regard, specifically introducing him to the foreigners.

The other side was quite polite, smilingly greeted Ling Feng without saying much.

Then, with the help of the translator, Li Huang chatted with the group, initially exchanging pleasantries before discussing the scenery they saw along the way, and local customs.

Ling Feng listened beside, appearing casual, but his mind was rapidly processing, contemplating their purpose.

Soon enough, the foreigners finally touched upon the main topic.

It turned out these people primarily wanted to establish trade relations with the Li Dynasty!

In other words, they wished to conduct business on Li Dynasty’s land, but without official permission, not only is business impossible, their ships wouldn’t even be allowed to dock!

Even if they forcefully docked, they’d be expelled by local troops.

Therefore, to achieve their goals, they rushed to the Capital City, aiming to connect with high officials to sell their products.

Upon hearing this, Ling Feng immediately became interested!

Because he suddenly recalled over a hundred years ago in his own world!

Back then, Westerners were also eager to sell goods within Huaxia, willing to start several wars, which led to a flood of industrial products into Huaxia and even brought harmful opium!

Thinking of this, Ling Feng thought could these guys be aiming to retrace old paths?

Li Huang wasn’t foolish, aware that foreigners came to do business with the intention to profit from his country, naturally he inquired about the products they brought.

Soon, someone carried a chest from outside, opened it and revealed ivory, rhinoceros horns, and spices taken out from within.

Ling Feng saw that there were no traces of industrial products, indicating the North American Continent hadn’t entered the industrial age yet, what they brought were still items derived from agriculture and hunting.

Indeed, subsequently, from the lower level of the chest, they took out some dried fruits produced on the North American Continent.

The world’s transportation industry is extremely undeveloped, transporting fresh fruits by ship was simply impossible.

But items like macadamia nuts and pistachios could be transported in large quantities.

During the introduction, Li Huang was somewhat aloof, because his character was very simple and he wasn’t interested in ivory, rhinoceros horn or amber, which he considered distractions, he understood this very well!

As for the food items, Li Huang didn’t show much interest either, primarily because he’s already experienced the delicacies from Ling Feng’s world, believing that whenever he desires them, Ling Feng can quickly supply them, no need to wait for North America’s transport.

Meanwhile, those foreigners were adept at reading the situation, realizing Li Huang’s lack of interest, exchanged glances, and took out something from the bottom layer of the chest!

Ling Feng took one glance and rolled his eyes!

The black paste-like substance was exactly opium!

The translator was enthusiastically introducing the opium’s effects, but Ling Feng was already unable to sit still!

Li Huang noticed his anomaly, turned to look at Ling Feng, "Mr. Ling, do you want to say something?"

"Yes!"

Ling Feng nodded, looking at the translator said, "You don’t need to say any more!"

"Oh."

Seeing Ling Feng’s pale face, the translator didn’t dare speak further.

Ling Feng then turned his head to look at the four foreigners, "Gentlemen, the items you brought are not rare in our dynasty, the Emperor isn’t interested, please leave!"

Upon hearing this, the foreigners were stunned.

Subsequently, one bearded man asked, "Mr. Ling, your English is quite fluent, but I don’t understand why you are making decisions on behalf of the Emperor?"

"Because I know your intentions!"

Ling Feng sneered, pointing at the opium, "This item, do you use it yourselves? If you do, show me how?"
