Based on the current research on Instruction pour les visites de Mandarins and from the angle of the historical studies on the early Jesuits in China, no matter 李毓中 or 張鎧, it is clear that the book was written during the Ming Dynasty and was completed by several writers. Their research is mostly based on the analysis of the section of <拜客問答>, which is a conjecture of facts rather than a conclusion of their studies on factual evidence. In fact, the book clearly highlights the period within which it was completed and even its authors. When it comes to its completion time, the most obvious evidence is a list of members of the early Society of Jesus in China. Consequently, this article explores the time period within which Instruction pour les visites de Mandarins was written and completed based on the list of the probable authors and the nature of the book. To achieve this objective, this article combines the goods and products with the stories in <買辦的事> with a detailed analysis of the meaning of mentioning Hangzhou and Peking (「宮裏」). It also explores the activities of the members of the early Jesuits in China, as mentioned in the book <拜客問答>.
