237 The Gossip of the Powerful
237 The powerful and the rich
After the Navy's Imperial Envoy ceremony, the distinguished guests were sent to the Navy Command on the shore in a row by small boats to attend the royal banquet. This was the first time that the Crown Prince came forward to carry out the imperial gift. It marked that Hai Song hoped to leave as much political imprint as possible before the Crown Prince went abroad. The beneficiary of the Royal Navy was of course particularly active and contacted the Foreign Ministry to invite all Chinese and foreign guests with suitable status. Therefore, although the status of the generals and officials who were granted were not very high, there were a lot of guests, and most of them were envoys and followers from various countries.
Not only did I invite my husband and wife to come, because the Navy tried to maximize the influence of this matter at home and internationally, I not only had a banquet at noon, but also had an entertainment tour in the afternoon, but also a cocktail party in the evening, which would have to make a whole day.
Now that the ceremony is over, the military band plays melodious music outdoors to cheer up the fun. The Navy Command building is full of people, and there are many foreigners. Blonde and blue-eyed foreigners and their wives holding foreign umbrellas can be seen everywhere, including Western officials and foreign officers and spouses serving the Haisong Navy.
Just because Chinese officials are not used to letting their family members attend such occasions, most of the people who come are foreigners, and Chinese officials receive children from home, so black-haired and yellow-eyed Chinese children and blond-haired and blue-eyed children can be seen everywhere on the lawn of the Navy Command, and pet dogs are running wildly, making the usual majestic Navy Command like a park playground.
However, Zhong Jialiang did not get involved. He sat alone on a huge arc-shaped viewing balcony, slowly siping wine mixed with opium. This is the west building of the three main building of the headquarters. On the three-story balcony of this VIP lounge, the scenery is excellent. You can overlook the large lawn in front of the headquarters by tilting your head slightly.
At this time, the VIP room was opened, and Qin Liansheng, the director of the external department, walked in, smiled and said, "Oh, Mr. Zhong, why did you drink by yourself? I asked several people before I heard that you are resting here."
As he said that, he walked up to the balcony, held the brass railing in both hands, smiled down and looked at the scenery, then took a deep breath of the salty sea breeze, sat on the ring chair opposite Zhong Jialiang with satisfaction, and asked the siren to pour him a cup of tea, then asked, "Mr. Zhong, why don't you go downstairs to chat? Many foreign officials are asking me about you."
Zhong Jialiang took a sip of wine and looked up and said, "Xiao Qin, don't tell them that I'm here. I won't even attend the banquet today. I will talk to the people of the Navy later and I will go home."
Qin Liansheng was stunned for a moment, then slapped his big ti, laughing with a sneer, and said with a sneer: "It's the Great Leap Forward, right? Haha, our eldest Viscount Xiao didn't dare to come, and used the excuse of seeing Western medicine to escape from the great powers and got the news. When he heard that the court wanted to borrow money, his eyes were red. Just now, the Austrian minister pestered me about loans. Ha, I said I don't understand finance, and he had no choice."
"I can still hide, but Xiao Xiao can't hide, so I must not be able to sleep well recently." Zhong Jialiang smiled wickedly. He was qualified to call the current Foreign Minister so.
Xiao Zuye, the current minister of the Foreign Ministry, used to be his follower, and he joined him to join the "thief". Although he is a bit cultural as a follower of a rich Xiaokai, he can speak English, but in the eyes of the Qing literati, of course, it seems to be a three-no person: no culture, no shame, no bottom line; there are one thing in three, will you go to the thief? In the Haisong court, there is still a little advantage: no arrogance - Xiao Zuye's cultural level is very poor, and he cannot support any particularly ambition, and will not be as arrogance as the civil servant leader Huan Zhuguo.
The gods and inner Confucians will not try to control the mountain like the army and navy. Moreover, as the first foreign minister in East Asia, they must engage in a country that is better than themselves. This has not happened in thousands of years, because the Celestial Empire sees others as barbarians, and there is no precedent to follow, and there is no subtle official culture to teach him, so he can only hold the emperor and do whatever he wants, such as letting him go on a mission to Britain. At that time, the people of Song Dynasty feared thousands of miles as if they were tigers.
The remote country, the untold untouchables who could not survive had no choice but to go. Will a wealthy official suffer? Maybe he died at the sea. He went there without saying a word. Although a year later, he was withdrawn because he was unable to handle heavy negotiations, packaging propaganda, and spy on intelligence. At that time, this loyal, obedient, and unpride heart was seen by the emperor, and the minister of the foreign ministry was still seated. Soon after, he was awarded the title of the first Minister of the Sea Song Dynasty to Britain.
Individuals will naturally sell themselves to the emperor without shame. Of course, they often ask Zhong Jialiang for foreign affairs at the most Western powers of the empire. They probably have determined that this low-key and humble nature is the foundation for their success. So Zhong Jialiang also likes him very much, and he always calls him Xiao Xiao. Of course, Zhong Jialiang's own strength is also terrible in terms of holy favors and friendship between the great powers. Europeans and Americans respectfully gave him a nickname "Minister of the Palace Outside and Outside Department". It is not shameful to bow to him.
"Of course, Lord Xiao couldn't sleep well. Now he was holding piles of numbers every day and talking about pounds, francs, etc. The little seaweeds who understand economics and finance in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs were called to give lectures to him. In the past two days, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs sat all day long with British, French, and Prussian officials blocked him. He didn't want to see him. He stroked his hair behind him, looking very painful." Qin Liansheng laughed.
Zhong Jialiang did not laugh, but seemed to need more thinking energy, and poured a mouthful of wine with bitter taste of opium and said, "This time, the pressure of foreign countries mainly comes from Britain. There are two more lucky points: Fortunately, France is in NLàn, and their bankers and political banks in our country are also paralyzed, and the pressure is equal to none; fortunately, Prussia emerged and was eager to expand its influence in the Far East, which can be used as a bargaining chip to balance the pressure of British foreign countries."
"British? The British consul couldn't find Lord Xiao, so he asked me to lobby. I heard it was pretty good. He said that if the international consortium led by the UK used the railway loan, the interest rate would be two points lower than other currencies, and two points lower than that of other currencies." Qin Liansheng widened his eyes, full of doubts.
Zhong Jialiang sneered and said, "Which political f is not good, the consortium led by the UK wants to lend us pounds and pounds to gold, our currency is sterling silver. Now silver prices are falling compared to gold. If you borrow gold, pounds are equal to borrow gold. When you pay back the money in the future, you not only have to pay interest in currency, but also give the UK a gold-to-silver appreciation difference, which will be squeezed and sucked."
Qin Liansheng was stunned for a long time and smiled embarrassedly: "Oh, fortunately, we cannot use these numbers in East Asia, otherwise I will be worried."
Zhong Jialiang knew that he didn't understand, so he stopped talking. He squinted his eyes and asked, "Hey, I suddenly remembered that today it was mainly foreign officials of the great powers. I also saw your colleague, Lao Luo, the European Division. What are you, the director of the East Asia Division? To serve the little barbarians in Annan?"
"Hey, the little noble Annan has been here in Haijing for half a year. They are all following the navy and the crown prince to play. Do you need me? I have another mission." Qin Liansheng took a sip of tea, smiled and looked down at the balcony, and suddenly pointed at the bottom with a surprise look and shouted: "Mr. Zhong, I have not seen him for a long time since I saw him."
Zhong Jialiang followed Qin Liansheng's finger and looked down. He saw a bright red hat with a sharp red hat between the top hat and the white military cap on the grass. Who was Ding Yizhan, the boss of the Little Knife Legion? Because of the incident on the Navy Hill, he came with a shy face.
However, with his identity, he would definitely not be able to enter the sacred ceremony on the ship. He probably has been waiting on the shore and has only been in now.
His former boss Luo Qianjie was leading him to greet the crown prince. Even on the three-story balcony, he could see Ding Yzhan's flattery manner of nodding and bowing in front of the crown prince, and his waist had never been straightened.
"Tsk tsk, when I came, I saw it. What's going on with the new military cap of the Little Knife Legion? Just wear it with a red hat. It has no skeleton yet, it's all slanted around the head, bright red, and looks like a piece of red shit lying on the head. It's so weird," Qin Liansheng commented.
"That was the new military cap that the emperor gave to Xiaodao. The beret was worn by the French shepherd. The emperor liked it very much." Zhong Jialiang glanced at Qin Liansheng and thought to himself that this kid was not concerned about the army.
Hearing this, Qin Liansheng was stunned and then shouted: "I looked at the hats and shook them all over. The red hat was worn slanted with a silver army emblem in the middle. It was so majestic. When I came, the Navy Command seemed to be lined up with a row of street lights on the road. Right, right. I said why is it so familiar? When I remembered that Wu Song was so rude to wear such crooked hats, Wu Song was so powerful to beat the tiger."
"It seems that Luo Qianjie wants to restore Ding Yzhan's influence and seek him to come out again." Zhong Jialiang ignored the blind concealment of the army opposite. He looked at Ding Yzhan below and said with his chin.
Qin Liansheng finally got rid of the topic of the red shit hat and immediately laughed and said, "It's probably not easy. Didn't Mr. Zhong hear it? It's said in the newspaper that Ding Y was in a dilemma."
"Oh? How do you say it?" Zhong Jialiang turned around and asked with great interest when he heard this.
Qin Liansheng said: "Since he was dismissed, everything at home has been exposed by newspapers. He said that his fiefdom outside the city has become the largest gathering place for smuggling population in Fujian in the empire. Looking at the past, there were Fujian people everywhere, all in Fujian dialect. The town centered on his official residence can be called Fujian town. After the accident, he wanted to kick all these fellow villagers away. At that time, he was worried that the emperor thought that he was so mean to be a rude official and turned against others. After all, our emperor was so kind, and he did this to be thankless; he would not kick it away.
, and confirmed his own charge of the boss of Fujian Mountain, so he didn't kick or not. He could only ask the nearby public security bureau to go to his town to check the illegal black people every day. Think about it, the sheriff dared to go to investigate before, but they beat them up, but the sheriff didn't dare to enter the town. Now I heard that the grandfather asked the sheriff to ask the sheriff to investigate, and the sheriff was angry at that time and did not hang him at all. He said in front of the reporter: 'We don't speak Fujian dialect, how dare we go to the Count Ding's house? They want to interrupt our t to death. Haha."
Zhong Jialiang then stretched his head again to look at Ding Yizhan below, and said in a cold tone: "It's pitiful. Although Your Majesty generally does not kill the powerful and looks ten thousand times more kind than the Qing Dynasty, the powerful and powerful who have lost their power are worse than dogs. Although they have no worries about life and clothing, the folk newspapers and untouchables are all snobbish. Without your halo, you cannot prove that you are devout and dedicated, so you dare to surround me and tear your life like a mad dog. If you suffer alive, you will not be different from Lingchi of the Qing Dynasty."
He didn't laugh because he was preparing for the serious business. Today he was very serious. He took a sip of wine, added some opium, and talked: "I think he could be reinstated even if there were no such troubles. His position as commander-in-chief of the Little Knife Legion has been taken over by Smith, the British man who was excluded by their Fujian Gang. The British, the Admiral is the British, and the emperor favors him, who dares to exclude them? They are stupid and more aggressive in their work. The emperor likes such stupid officials the most. As long as he sits in the official position, do you see if anyone comes down? The emperor favors Rilong."
Qin Liansheng covered his mouth and smiled, paying for his jokes, and then said solemnly: "Although it is not easy, it is not necessarily true. Luo Qianjie was desperately urging the crown prince and lobbying to His Majesty. After all, Ding Yzhan is actually his person. Although Ding Yzhan had made a mountain-top mistake, it was indeed the general who dared to fight and rush at that time: the first time he fought against Beijing and Dagu Fort, he led the army first, but was injured by the bomb. I was there that time; the second time he fought against Beijing, his knife was tinging in front of the cavalry against Senggelinqin, and I was also behind the formation. It was indeed powerful. When the horse's hooves came, the mountain collapsed and the tsunami was like a tsunami. Of course, when our rockets fired, the other party was burping, but Ding Yzhan was indeed in front, right? That's why he got the Earl of Baliqiao. The emperor valued the characteristics of "Courage" the most for the Navy."
Zhong Jialiang looked at the other party and re-examined the information of Qin Liansheng from his heart. He confirmed that the boy was Lao Xiao's man, not a navy man, that is, he was more close to his own people. Then he replied: "It is true that the emperor valued "courage" the most. At that time, he did not trust traditional culture very much, so he opposed the opposition and kept Dajinfang Davidson on the admiral's chair. Think about it, now that a large number of sea gamblers have returned to China, and the navy has frequently sent officers to intern with the navy of the great powers. These are all talents. Davidson
What is it? He used to be just a pirate hunter. Compared with the talents of the navy, he was just a semi-illiterate. At that time, he was the most Westernized, the sea wizards, and the most average education. This is an outsider commander, but this is the "most valuable outsider commander" that His Majesty has said repeatedly. He said to me personally: "In the development of the navy, I once had the cannons and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one hundred and one
The two strategies of cannons in the middle have hesitated before, but after observing the navy for a while, I thought through it, what kind of birds are among the cannons? In this era, in this sea area, I only dare to take things like the Qing fleet and pirates as enemies. As long as you dare to drive out my ship to rush over to the enemy, you can win. I am afraid that you are full of foreign literature and knowledge of naval warfare, but you don’t want to go out to work hard, huddle in the port every day or travel, kill good and kill me, and then kill me, no matter how high your knowledge, no matter how many cannons, what is the use of more tonnage?
?So a Christian reckless man can beat 1,000 wise generals of the Qing Dynasty, and a brave fool can beat 10,000 traditional monkeys. What kind of knowledge and education is? After all, the first creed of the navy is to be brave and responsible, so the navy is my dear General of the Golden Tooth. It will be fine to let him work for another 20 years? Well, until the Sino-Japanese War of 1895, yes! It will be fine until the Sino-Japanese War of 1895’—I was particularly impressed by this, because he rarely used the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches to record the years. It seems that His Majesty really knew how to pretend not to understand before."
Qin Liansheng nodded repeatedly and agreed: "Your Majesty deliberately pretended to be stupid, he actually understood everything. Although Marquis Davidson was a little stupid, he could not form cliques, contacts, or even compete for power and profit, he let his subordinate Luo Qianjie play tricks on him and often cheated him. He thought Luo Qianjie was really a good subordinate and really treated him as his father. At that time, Davidson really didn't tell any lies and had no intention of patrolling him. He really went there, and when he saw the pirates, he must be destroyed, and never played nonsense or perfunctory things. I admired this very much.
The fools are lucky. These things are made by Luo Qianjie and others below. In fact, they not only want to destroy Smith, but Ding Yizhan just stood up and fired the first shot. They also want to squeeze Davidson out of himself as an admiral. As soon as the incident of Dante Yizhan came out, the emperor suddenly put his attitude on the table. These smart monkeys were all dumbfounded, so Luo Qianjie was jumping up and down to promote Annan's marriage these days, and he was also afraid of losing favor. With so many sea gamblers now, the emperor's heart is the future important minister of the navy."
"Why are you promoted to Lieutenant General? Isn't that big boat, Ronaldo, wants to put multiple iron nails on his clothes?" Zhong Jialiang sneered.
Qin Liansheng nodded, and had no topic for a moment. He turned his head and went to see Ding Yzhan below. He saw that the count was shaking hands with his mortal enemy Smith and was waving. He held a red beret in his hand, and his waist was like a grandson. Today, he was really lying as low as he was. Even Smith was flattering. He turned around and smiled, "Old Ding is a very fierce man in war. Why do you think you have nothing to do when you are idle? You're so full."
"Yes, Your Majesty also said: 'I'm afraid that the generals will be promoted to death because they are not afraid of death. After they are promoted, they will start to be afraid of death and make money. This is no different from the Qing Dynasty.'" Zhong Jialiang replied. It is his style to quote His Majesty's words, showing that he is the emperor's favor that others can get when they dream of.
Qin Liansheng smiled and said, "But Smith overwhelmed Ding Yzhan, which really helped our foreign ministry. The Qing South Ocean Fleet fired Smith, which was evaluated by Britain as a decline in influence on the Qing Dynasty. Smith was once again excluded by Ding Yzhan, and the British Foreign Ministry also knew that his Majesty overthrew the Earl Ding Yzhan, which brought Britain's evaluation of our country to several levels. They believed that their influence on us increased and we were their trustworthy objects. But today the Japanese ambassador asked me, are we not afraid of their elbows turning outward in the navy? Or are we willing to be stolen by the British?"
"Hey, foreigners have fewer thoughts. Didn't the Royal News introduce the life and deeds of Bismarck, the world's famous Prussian Prime Minister,? It was mentioned that in 1862, Bismarck was the Prussian ambassador to Russia and was ready to be called back to serve as prime minister. When he told the Russian Tsar that he regretted having to leave St. Petersburg (propriety); the Tsar misunderstood what he meant and asked him if he would be willing to serve Russia in the Russian foreign world? Bismarck politely rejected the proposal. This was an emperor's remarks to a different person.
The prime minister made a request for allegiance! What does this mean? It shows that the European foreigners are still in the feudal period of our country in the autumn, the Warring States Period, and the scholars were extremely mobile. The ministers had no idea of loyalty to the emperor, and the emperors had no distinction between the two and the others, and only loyal to their duties. So what is the point of hiring foreigners? If a war against the British Empire, as long as Davidson did not resign before the war, he would still fire at his compatriots. No matter who died, everyone could drink and talk about it in heaven, without hurting the harmony at all. They were all Christians, right?" Zhong Jialiang said.
After saying that, Zhong Jialiang asked Qin Liansheng with concern with a sense of pride among the Celestial people: "How do you answer the Japanese?"
Qin Liansheng was stunned for a moment. It was probably not as appropriate as Zhong Jialiang's Western anthology answered at that time. He curled his lips in anger and said, "Why do they write five-character seven-character poems every day to mock us? This is a ridiculous mockery of us. He said that we are cults and that they are the emperors of the world. They said proudly. Damn, no one cares about that island, no one beats him, of course, it can be a world of world. I really don't know why the people in that little ghost place have such arrogant hearts and a bunch of garbage."
"Oh? Are the Japanese so arrogant?" Zhong Jialiang was shocked.
Qin Liansheng scoffed and said, "Your Majesty attaches importance to this island country. We collect newspapers from the country every month to make a briefing for Your Majesty to report. Guess how the Japanese people talk about us? It is said that the sick giant elephant in the Qing Dynasty is an energetic monkey, and our Song Dynasty is a jackal who betrayed Asian culture and said that he is an energetic monkey. Haha, this can only be the Japanese people..."
At this time, Qin Liansheng suddenly put down his teacup, stood up in a hurry, held the railing and looked down, as if he had seen something that scared him.
Zhong Jialiang also stretched out his head to look at it: Everything is still the same below, but a carriage came over at the entrance, and a man with a big braid came down to follow the carriage.
"Mr. Zhong, the person we were waiting for finally arrived. I'm leaving." Qin Liansheng was about to leave with joy on his face.
Zhong Jialiang pointed to the carriage below and asked in wonder: "What are those people doing?"
Qin Liansheng said with his expression of winning the lottery: "That's the ambassador of the Qing Dynasty. I finally came here today haha."
"Ambassador of Qing State? Is there an ambassador of Qing State? Oh, the one named Zhang?" Zhong Jialiang looked up and smiled.
Qin Liansheng laughed and said, "Mr. Zhong, you're t. The man named Zhang has returned to China long ago. Now I've changed that guy to us for half a year. Except for being summoned by His Majesty to exchange letters, he has been huddled in the Qing embassy we have prepared for. No one has ever seen it. You don't know. I'm actually not familiar with him."
"You are not familiar with him? You are the director of the East Asia Department. How can you not familiar with the Qing ambassador?" Zhong Jialiang opened his mouth wide in surprise.
Qin Liansheng spread his hands helplessly and said with a wry smile: "I don't blame me at all. There is a problem with the Qing Dynasty's system of foreign countries. They are afraid that the envoys will report corruption and overreport, so they adopt the system of subsidies: the envoys stationed in Europe and the United States will give 100,000 yuan in silver every year, and the ones stationed here will give 50,000 yuan in silver every year. The amount of these funds will be saved will be the ambassador himself. As a result, this time they came here, I wanted to save money. The second is that they are afraid of foreigners and are afraid of crosses and Chinese people who don't have braids. They make themselves like vampires. Usually, they don't go out and report to us for foreign situations. They throw documents to our front desk like thieves and turn around and run away. I heard last time that the ambassador of the Qing Dynasty came. He stepped on slippers and ran downstairs to see him. He almost rolled down the stairs. As a result, he ran down the fourth floor and chased out of the building of the foreign government, and ran a hundred meters along the Imperial Avenue, but he didn't catch up."
"Why? He dare not see you?" Zhong Jialiang was so shocked that his mouth couldn't close.
Qin Liansheng looked contemptuous and helpless, shocked Jiāzhi. He explained: "When I see me, I have to invite him to dinner, and he has to invite him back. This etiquette is universal. At that time, he had to pay for the treat."
Zhong Jialiang was stunned and said for a long time: "Do you need to save this money?"
"It's not just that I heard that I was a Hanlin and a very knowledgeable person, but that's a pervert." Qin Liansheng stomped his feet and moved to Zhong Jialiang and shouted: "In order to save money and avoid foreign requests from abroad, our officials above the director will definitely not see our officials who are particularly interested in establishing good communication with the Qing Dynasty. Therefore, the Qing Dynasty embassy we built covers an area of several thousand square meters. What do you think? Then the adults only brought a few servants from the Qing Dynasty, washing clothes and cooking, and these heavy work are all heavy.
It was his wife who worked as a laundryman himself and couldn't bear to hire him. Just to save money, when we first found out, we frightened us, because we could see the Qing embassy directly from the foreign ministry building. Someone found that their flagpoles were full of strange flags, and they thought it was a festival or demonstration to us in the Qing Dynasty. All the people from the East Asia Division came to me to report that I looked at the telescope and found that the ambassador's wife actually dried clothes on the flagpole and support line on the rooftop.
"No way? No, it's also a foreign official from the Qing Dynasty. We were also a member of the Qing Dynasty twenty years ago? We are all Chinese. Why are they so scary? Didn't your foreign ministry do a good job?" Zhong Jialiang looked unwilling to believe it.
Qin Liansheng sneered a few times and said, "Mr. Zhong, you may not know what was in your luggage when this adult took office."
"What's there?" Zhong Jialiang was completely frightened and had no confidence in speaking.
"Salt, he actually brought a ton of salt to transport it from Shanghai to Haijing." Qin Liansheng looked disappointed.
"Wear salt? Why do you bring salt?" Zhong Jialiang was stunned.
Qin Liansheng smiled bitterly: "They actually thought that we would not eat salt after we believed in foreign religions. Haisong and foreign countries did not sell salt. I don't know what monster the Qing people described us as in their books. And those who believed in this set were their foreign officials."
After saying that, he suddenly hit his forehead and whined: "You can imagine that this kind of foreign official from Beijing has no use for us and the foreign official from the Qing Dynasty. What's there to talk to him? It would be better to go to Shanghai to go to Li Hongzhang, the minister of the General Administration of Foreign Affairs of the Foreign Affairs of the Foreign Affairs of the People's Republic of China. At least he knew that we were human beings. But half a month ago, his Majesty yelled at me and said that I was a waste, and he couldn't let the foreign official from the Qing Dynasty integrate into our society. It was his business that he was so scared that he dared not go to the embassy. I was not his nanny, so I had to bribe his servant and advise him not to be an otaku. Hai Song was very peaceful.
All: There are absolutely no monsters running on the street, and we will never turn into ghosts or anything. This time, we say there are free food, fun, free food, drink, and free foreigners. The emperor and the navy treat you, and there is no need to send you back. Fortunately, this guy probably stayed here for half a year and understood that we didn’t have a monster head and would not stick out our fangs to bite him. He actually agreed to eat for the first time. I finally had a chance to get to know him. I want to go quickly, protect him, and comfort him. No price to let foreigners everywhere scare away this Hanlin Lord.”
"Brief up the servants? Eat for free, drink for free, watch foreigners for free? Do you need these conditions when foreign officials come out?" Zhong Jialiang was so shocked that his eyes were almost glaring out.
Qin Liansheng sighed with an expression of incredible feeling: "Not only these, the Foreign Ministry also wants to help them deal with more than 1,000 kilograms of salt. Mr. Zhong, do you know someone who wants to buy salt? It is absolutely pure Qing Guo salt."...
Chapter completed!
