"Representative of the Lanfang Republic?" Carlo was taken aback and looked towards the steward, Loren, who had reported the news.
"Yes, Your Majesty, it is precisely the Lanfang Republic you instructed us about earlier." Steward Loren nodded, confirming once again.
In fact, such a small Asian nation theoretically shouldn't have drawn the attention of the King of Spain, Carlo.
But due to the strategic plans concerning Lanfang Republic and Spain in Kalimantan, and Carlo's prior instructions, when Lanfang Republic truly dispatched an envoy to Spain, the guards reported layer by layer until it reached Steward Loren.
"Lanfang." Carlo turned his gaze towards the map of the East Indies hanging in the office, where the name of the Lanfang Republic was marked on Borneo and circled for emphasis.
In later generations, this overseas republic founded by the Chinese received much praise, and Carlo had some fondness for it too.
