Early the next morning, Feng Yunshan, accompanied by Tan Tiyuan and several personal soldiers, personally came to the clinic opened by the foreigner Haba Ande in Xiguan in the city.
Xiguan is a prosperous place of commerce in the city of Guangzhou. Two days after Feng Yunshan entered the city, he had already heard that there was a saying in Guangzhou that "Young Master Dongshan, Miss Xiguan" was circulating. Dongshan is the residence of Guangzhou officials, so most of the people who go in and out of Dongshan are the children of official families; Xiguan has been a prosperous commercial area in Guangzhou since Qianlong, and most of the ladies from wealthy merchant families live here, so there is such a saying.
Haba'ande's clinic is small, but there are dozens of people who come to see him, and there are two long lines that stretch out into the streets. There was only one door open on the front street of the clinic, and the crowd was just blocked by the queue.
Tan Tiyuan commanded several personal soldiers to separate the crowd in line, squeeze open a one-person-wide opening, and then invited Feng Yunshan in.
Feng Yunshan just wanted to walk in, but unexpectedly, a wind chime-like voice sounded next to him: "This patient, your illness is very urgent and serious?" β
Feng Yunshan was stunned, and looked at the person who asked the question, but it was a girl with a delicate face, looking like Zhou Comin, a star in the nineties in the future, because of the proximity of the ground, Feng Shaoguang was embarrassed to stare directly at her face, and looked down involuntarily, but stared at the pair of proud and dangerous peaks, but forgot to answer.
"Humph! Lecher! This is a clinic run by a foreigner of the new Christ, advocating equality for all, and you don't have to wait in line at the back? This classical version of "Zhou Comin" frowned and asked.
"Huh!? I'm sorry, I'm not seeing a doctor, I'm here to find someone. Finding that the crowd queuing up to see a doctor had all looked over, Tan Tiyuan also turned around and squeezed over, and Feng Yunshan hurriedly walked in.
"If it weren't for Aunt Yuan's medical treatment, I would have to teach you a lesson. Hum! β¦ Oh, auntie, you're in a heartache again....."
Feng Yunshan heard it in his ears, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, when did he be the holy king of the Taiping Holy Kingdom, he was actually scolded by a little woman on the street.
Stopping Tan Tiyuan and his own soldiers who wanted to teach the girl a lesson, Feng Yunshan already had the intention of traveling in micro-clothes, and he didn't want to alarm others.
As soon as Hexin heard that the Holy King was coming to find him, he hurriedly put down the compilation book in his hand.
"The Holy King came and failed to greet him, offended, offended!" Hexin was a little stiff and learned from the Chinese, and hugged his fists to express his apologies. Feng Yunshan hurriedly waved his hand.
Habaander was in a hurry to see a doctor, so he just said hello to Feng Yunshan and continued to busy himself.
Hexin took Feng Yunshan and others to the backyard of the clinic, but there were several side rooms and came to the hall to sit down. Hexin told him that Shu Weishi and his wife and Yu Shi asked Tan Tiyuan to send someone out of Guangzhou City yesterday to find someone to handle the arms procurement on Hong Kong Island.
It seems that a few of them are very interested in the deal with themselves.
Feng Yunshan nodded secretly. Ordering Tan Tiyuan and a few of them to guard outside, Feng Yunshan directly explained the intention of today's visit: "Pastor Hexin, I don't know if you have any acquaintances you know in Prussia?" β
Hexin's eyes widened: "Holy King, Prussia does have our London Evangelists, but it takes a long time to come and go. I don't know if the Holy King's affairs are in a hurry? β
"Urgent, urgent! The Holy Army has a very tricky matter, it needs to invite a gentleman from the western city of Essen to come here, and tens of thousands of lives are at stake! Feng Shaoguang looked anxious and said solemnly.
βreallyοΌ Is there really something so urgent? Can you tell me what it is and see if I can help? Hexin asked with concern.
"Something about steelmaking. Recently, Shengguo set up a workshop in Shonan to prepare a life-saving medicine, which is made by mixing many kinds of Chinese medicine, which we call Chinese patent medicine. However, there was no good steelmaking method, and one of the most important reactors exploded after it was put into use, killing and injuring many people. I heard that there was only one named Ah, in the Prussian city of Essen. Mr. Krupp's husband has mastered the secret recipe of steelmaking, which can make steel cans that save people's lives, so I would like to invite him to come to Shonan and help us build a medicine canister and send him home as soon as it is built. β
"Not only can it save the lives of the workers who are building the tanks now, but it can also make medicines earlier and save the lives of tens of thousands of patients. If Pastor Hexin can do his best to help me get Mr. Krupp here, I can swear in the name of God that this Chinese patent medicine will be made and sold to the people, including the people of Europe, at the lowest price. Feng Yunshan swore as he drew a cross with emotion. But I secretly muttered in my heart, just an excuse to find casually, even if it really makes a Chinese patent medicine, the lowest price is not my final say.
When Hexin heard that it was really a matter related to the lives of the people, he was quite moved, and said to Feng Shaoguang with admiration: "The Holy King is worthy of being a person who believes in God, full of love and benevolence!" The stakes were so great that Hexin wanted to go back to Europe to buy some books and materials, so he went to Prussia to help the Holy King bring Mr. Krupp there. β
Hexin said with certainty, and did not take into account the wishes of Mr. Krupp. It is estimated that in his opinion, everything that saves people's lives will be done, and if they are not done, they must be done. It's nice to have such a stubborn and lovable pastor to help. Feng Yunshan thought about it, he really felt a little guilty of deceiving such a simple religious fighter. But the Buddha said, "If I don't go to hell, who will go to hell?" Lao Tzu said: Do it spontaneously!
"Thank you, Pastor Hopson! I believe that all who are saved will be grateful for your kindness and kindness! Feng Yunshan flickered.
"Holy King, don't be grateful to me, it should be God who should be thanked!"
"That's what the pastor said! Thank God and Lord! Thank you to His servant, Pastor Hexin! Feng Yunshan said with a smile: "Pastor, when do you plan to leave, I will let a few subordinates go with you, and I can also help, and I will pay for all the expenses." β
"The sooner you save people, the better. Let's leave early tomorrow morning, Holy King, and if there is nothing else to do, I'll go and pack up and get ready to go. Just ask your subordinates to come to me directly to the clinic tomorrow morning. β
He is worthy of being a merciful and loving servant of God, so for me, not for the sake of the people. If it weren't for Hexin's beard, Feng Yunshan couldn't help but want to have a hug with him like a friend in the future.
Back at the governor's yamen, Feng Yunshan hurriedly asked Tan Tiyuan to select a few holy soldiers who had studied a little bit and knew firearms, and he led him to follow Pastor Hexin to the West. Then Feng Yunshan explained a few more things to pay attention to, and the key point was to explain to Tan Tiyuan, no matter what kind of means and what kind of cost, it is necessary to bring back the foreigner named Krupp, who is about the same age as a creature. In addition, there is an opportunity to buy some of the most advanced muskets and artillery from foreigners, as well as matching ammunition.
As for the large-scale purchase of weapons and industrial equipment, Feng Yunshan did not explain Tan Tiyuan. People who don't even know a word, don't understand the language, and are still Chinese, most foreigners can't sell, and even if they do, it's sky-high. It's still cost-effective to help with foreigners. He was told to buy some samples of firearms, with the aim of bringing them back to see if they could be copied.
Tan Tiyuan was just about to leave, Xu Xiangguang, Bai Huihuai, and Xu Daguang had something to report.
It turned out that Bai Hui had the idea to ask Xu Xiangguang and Xu Daguang, who were familiar with the city of Guangzhou, to mobilize the people in the city to find out the families of the Qing army who lived in the city, and then detain all of them, hoping to demand that these Qing military attaches surrender to the holy army through their families.
Unexpectedly, the effect was quite good, and the captured Qing army green battalion soldiers in the city rushed to surrender. The three of them wanted to use the family members captured in the city to threaten the Qing generals who were still resisting the Holy Army outside the city of Guangzhou, urging them to lead their troops to surrender.
Feng Yunshan thought that Tan Tiyuan was looking for a holy soldier who was literate and knew firearms, and it was estimated that it would not be easy to find, so his heart moved, so he asked: "Have you ever read a book and know firearms?" β
Bai Huihuai looked at Xu Xiangguang, neither of them spoke, but Xu Daguang on the side spoke: "Holy King, Daguang happens to know such a person." His name is Li Jianwei, his father is the general of the Dapeng Association of the Qing Demon Water Division, his official reputation is not bad, and his family is also poor, so he did not confiscate his house. He himself was disgusted with the Manchus and promised to write a letter to persuade his father to surrender to the Holy Army. This Li Jianwei has been studying since he was a child, and in the Qing army camp, he is familiar with firearms, and even warships have a certain understanding. β
"Oh, this Li Jianwei can abandon the darkness and turn to the light, very good. Bring him to me to see him. Feng Yunshan said happily. What he wanted was to let this Li Jianwei go to Europe with Tan Tiyuan.
