From a distance, those people are busy and not flustered, it seems that they are doing things in an orderly manner, Xu Hao doesn't know if there will be any formal welcome ceremony in this era, anyway, in the early years, a group of young pioneers wearing white shirts and holding flowers to welcome foreign guests will not be there, but you can see that the specifications are not bad.

The system division of this era is basically everyone groping forward together, and Xu Hao is not easy to complain about, but he has a general understanding of Cromwell's ability.

Relying on the prosperity of potatoes, that is, the high-yield crops found in the New World, after returning to Britain to plant a large number of people, the British native population has been tens of millions, considering the productivity of this era, and its subsidiary territory, Britain is not lacking in manpower at this time, after all, to China is a small province shelf, many people think that the British population in this era is insufficient, but they ignore the number of crazy overseas immigrants, as well as all kinds of black households.

And the next morning, the Liaoning began to slowly enter the port, after all, the Liaoning is not the No. 16 fishery ship, the draft can not reach ten meters, many ports in this era can still hold up, but for the sake of arrangement, people are required to make a special arrangement.

Before the ship was parked, Xu Hao found that more and more people were crowded in the port to watch, and their age distribution was very young, of course, there were also many men and women in Chinese costumes, many people were waving their hands, and this sentence suddenly appeared in his mind: The history of imperialism in the East to set up a few cannons to conquer a country and a nation is gone forever.

His eyes have been staring at the middle-aged man who is strutting high, because he has a portrait of Cromwell a few years later in his hand, the realism of oil paintings in this era is absolutely explosive, so he stared at Cromwell early.

This person is already in his forties, in this era of Progeria everywhere, people are very spiritual, well-maintained, Xu Hao knows that this is his early Puritan student life trained by the self-denial life, but the eyes are deep and bottomless, so that people can see at a glance, can not see from the face of his inner thoughts.

He stood there, it seemed that it had been a long time, but he was still stiff there, looking at Xu Hao, who was standing on the side of the boat and looking down, Xu Hao knew that it was definitely a very difficult person to deal with at this time, but he still had confidence.

"In Europe, at this time, it can be said that there are many strong people, countless, it can be said that in addition to scientific knowledge, other insights, all kinds of intrigues, and human feelings, it is no problem for these people to throw us a few streets, do you know how to deal with them with their strengths and avoid weaknesses when they get there."

"Just ask them for a drink?"

"Well, you can't be wrong to advertise our distilled spirits products, but those upper floors don't have a fuel-efficient lamp, and you want to pour the next country alone?"

"Then what to do, you just say it."

"Actually, it's very simple, do you remember how Korean high school students robbed the imperial capital supermarket, how they blackmailed the supermarket owner XX million with the help of the embassy, of course, we don't care about money, what we care about is power, and there is no need to turn yourself into a mountain king like a stick, if there is anything involved in topics that should not be there, you can directly retreat 625, pretend not to understand, or push the contradiction to the back."

Xu Hao thought about it, and he also had a little confidence in his heart, even if he couldn't play with his brain, we still had the equipment to attack directly, besides, I had prepared so many big gifts, and I didn't know how to deal with you.

Due to the high deck of the Liaoning, the board of the ship getting on and off the ship was a little troublesome, but fortunately, there were many people here with great strength, and a platform had already been set up and went down the slope.

Mei Qianzhi walked in the front to greet him, Xu Hao saw him, smiled slightly, but his eyes were only staring at that Cromwell, after the Earl of Essex, Manchester and others gradually aged and withdrew from the core of power, he was almost the first person in Britain, especially in the Battle of Nasby half a year ago, the core and main force of the King's army was swept away, and he was unable to fight again, everyone knows, the rest of the things are already garbage time, Cromwell only needs to send troops to slowly clean up the remnants of the King's army, and finally take their base camp Oxford, That's it.

And such a character values me very much! couldn't help but make Xu Hao very proud.

Xu Hao couldn't understand the various shouts of the British people around him, this accent was completely different from the English of later generations, and there were so many people, but when Cromwell came over to shake hands, the words he said were very non-standard, but very accurate Chinese: "Ni Hao!" ”

But Xu Hao still chuckled in his heart, for no other reason, this person's hand strength is really not commensurate with this age, he only feels that he is holding a pair of iron claws, and at the same time, Cromwell seems to look at him with a little more in his eyes, as if he has eaten his own appearance.

Indeed, Xu Hao is not a guy with a fitness stream, a characteristic of modern society is that things that can be solved by machines will never be done, so too many people are raised, fortunately, the government is still using various ways to raise people, and the trend of fitness is not small, so most of the elders' figures are quite normal, and they have not become a lot of fat pigs like many countries in later generations, but when it comes to strength, they did lose.

Xu Hao felt that the momentum on his body was also declining, this tacit competition between men only took a few seconds, he felt that Cromwell relaxed a little, stood there, and said loudly: "Since Prince Henry opened the Age of Discovery, we have been looking forward to friendly exchanges with friends in the East, and today, this opportunity has finally come, welcome." ”

Of course, these words were translated by Mei Qian, but Xu Hao could listen to them, but it was about it, after all, the people around him were too quarrelsome.

Subsequently, Cromwell kept introducing people to Xu Hao, and listened carefully, at least in what Mei Qianzhi said, they were all people in the church, or people with prestige in the council, they were all red-eyed, looked at the huge body of the Liaoning, and then turned to look at Xu Hao in a flattering manner.

They were all dressed in various robes, and some were wearing wigs.

Of course, this sugar-coated cannonball naturally didn't work, and later, Xu Hao didn't introduce anyone else, but walked out of the port with Cromwell.

"Sir, I would like to ask why your people are so welcoming."

Xu Hao pointed around, he was indeed a little flattered, he didn't do anything, and suddenly got the welcome of the people all over the city, although the language may not be the same, but it can always be seen by looking at the expression, in general, this is really like when the leader came to inspect when he was a child, he was pulled to welcome the children, but it doesn't look like it's against his will. 、

Cromwell asked Xu Hao to sit in the carriage, he was not too surprised to see that Xu Hao was followed by a white woman, and the other attachés, those craftsmen, and musicians were also arranged, of course, the Liaoning itself naturally has people from the Zheng family to take care of it, and the ship itself will be given to the Zheng family after it goes back, and it is also a carrot hanging around the neck, supporting the motivation for these people to work hard.

Eliza was silent, and Cromwell didn't pay attention to her, but kept staring at Xu Hao, and said: "My country has just experienced a war, and we can't see the direction for the future, at this time, there are envoys from your country coming, whether it is a businessman or a worker, they are all invigorated, and even, the support for the government has also increased, this is to thank you, we have arranged a place for you to live, and there is naturally a reception tonight, please be sure to appreciate the light." ”

After speaking, Cromwell politely asked the two of them to do it, and he went to leave in another carriage.

Xu Hao looked at the crowd outside the car, nodded, and said, "I understand." ”

At this time, the future world's number one power, the overlord who ruled the Seven Seas, and the heroic country that destroyed the Armada half a century ago were just a small country fighting bravely under internal and external troubles.

It is conceivable that his arrival really helped the parliamentary army to stabilize people's hearts, London is not as big as later generations at this time, and the population of hundreds of thousands has reached the sky, but how many people are here today? Twenty thousand or thirty thousand?

Especially those who were still a little dirty in their clothes, and the businessmen with big bellies also came to see him, and thinking of this, he stood up in place and couldn't help but smile and wave.

The game of intervening in the situation in Europe has begun.

Of course, the British would be excited about the hem of the Chinese shirt an inch, but that was two hundred years later, and the current situation is that the British civil war still has a tail to fight, although it did not hurt the bones, but the Dutch began to be aggressive outside, and after the expulsion of the king, the residents of the city of London did not understand where the future was.

At this time, the legend of rich, super rich Chinese ran over, and in order to calm them, Xu Hao also specially sent some exquisite crafts, including the crystal horse, and the Liaoning itself is already the biggest advertisement, at least the technicians of the local shipyard are all dumbfounded, although they also have a super battleship construction plan, but how does such a huge wooden structure exist?

Eliza looked at Xu Hao's high-spirited appearance, and also admired and longed, as a woman, she is naturally not good at participating in other people's political affairs, but it is good to help explain it as a staff officer.

The city of London is not advanced and prosperous at this time, and even the ground will be bumpy because of the unevenness, but this kind of vitality is definitely Xu Hao has not seen in the Ming Dynasty, and it is reasonable to say that he is full of energy, after all, as a beneficiary of the Age of Discovery, Britain has too many benefits, this dividend has continued until the end of World War II, the British colonies began to shrink, uprisings, resulting in a large number of colonial officials and officers returning to Britain, and the two colonial devils who took refuge too seriously and were too ruthless to their compatriots, also followed them back to Britain, Only then did the history of counter-current immigration begin.

The reason why everyone looks vigorous is because the people who are a little bit of dick silk have gone to the New World, which is not a bad explanation, even later, in the factories in the United States, the factory owners have to give the dicks a weekly salary of 2 dollars, (which is already a good salary) and these jobs save some money, so they go to the west, sign a contract with 10 dollars, and divide a large area of land for their own reclamation.

This kind of vitality that made Xu Hao secretly frightened, but it didn't make Eliza anything important, compared to sunny Portugal, the winter in Britain is indeed a little muddy, Cromwell obviously can't carry out a special cityscape renovation for Xu Hao, however, in the spirit of a woman's reserve, she won't say anything else.

The place where Xu Hao and others are placed is a suburban business, there are some servants and residences that have already been arranged, and the guard company that followed Xu Hao to place, as well as those craftsmen, etc., is more than enough, Xu Hao looked at the clean house, but he was also very satisfied, he could be regarded as feeling that he was the posture of a leader of a big country.

There were people waiting for him outside the door, and Xu Hao didn't ask too much, so he knew what he was here for.

"Hello, I'm here to discuss some details with you before the banquet starts."

"Well, I understand." Xu Hao looked at this Mei Qiangen, and now he realized that it was a little troublesome to talk about things and have to rely on these priests.

However, the old man suddenly said a Chinese dialect: "I have been to China in my early years, and a few years ago, my legs really couldn't stand the humidity of the sea, so I had to give up my sailing career, but there should be no problem in communicating with you, you can call me Williams." ”

Xu Hao secretly scolded these foreign devils for being really powerful, but he also had to say: "Well, what you said is very standard, as for what I'm going to do, it's very simple, your technology has opened the door to a new world, so that we can find that we are not alone, for so many years, it is your people who have been in and out of our place, aren't we also coming to take a look." ”

Williams said: "When I traveled in the Far East, there were no such ships in your country. ”

Xu Hao lightly opened the question: "I have a lot of countries, and I didn't pay much attention to maritime interests before, but it's finally better over the years, speaking of which, I just arrived, and I don't understand the situation yet, it seems that your country is now too peaceful." ”

Williams glanced at him, and then at Na Mei Qiangen, asking such a sensitive question at this time really made him worry.

"Thanks to your concern, the perverse king has been ousted, and we discuss every day how to re-establish order in our country."

"That's good, we came all the way here, and we also worked hard to continue our friendship and work for our common interests, if we fight and kill every day, then it's not interesting."

"What you're saying is, well, we didn't prepare in advance for your visit, and dare to ask the king you serve if there are any special requirements?"

Xu Hao laughed, trying his best not to be so profiteer, and said, "Yes, we have a lot of good things to explain." ”

He patted the album in his hand vigorously, and his heart was full of ups and downs.
