Chapter 308: Seris

Subtitle of this chapter: If you are not loved or feared, then you can only listen to it!

Author's note: This sentence comes from the ancient Roman proverb that an empire does not need to be loved, it needs to be feared.

……………………………………………………

As night falls, the mysterious "Flea Man" once again appears in this foggy metropolis.

Once again, our Worm Warlock has come to the foothold of the members of Operation Tai Sui in Limehouse,

Now the "Zodiac" here adds him, the "Tai Sui", a total of exactly thirteen members.

In fact, these thirteen people are also official members of his design.

As on July 23, 1921, history has proven that this figure is very auspicious, and you will definitely be able to eat chicken.

The thirteen people in the demon capital finally ate a "big rooster" the size of 9.8 million square kilometers.

"Comrades...... Like-minded people are comrades. So let's all call ourselves comrades. ”

Yuan Yan took his hands behind him and looked at them one by one. He smiled at everyone, and when he had made eye contact with the twelve comrades, he began his speech with a cough.

"Comrades, we come from all over the world. For example, my brother and I (Lin Kang) were born in China. And some of you are native-born American citizens, some are immigrants from South America, and some are overseas Chinese from Nanyang......"

"But we have a common name, Seris!"

"Brother, let me explain to you what Seris is. In the fourth century BC, the Greek Ctesias called our ancestors Seres. The word comes from the Greek Sere – that is, silk. Therefore, China is the country of silk in the Greeks. ”

"How did the Europa civilization describe us at that time?"

"They say we settle 'beyond the north wind' and are not afflicted by the cold winds. Because we are a people who were favored by the sun god Apollo. ”

"In the fifth century B.C., Herodotus, the earliest historian in Europe, wrote in his Histories that Oriental culture is the cradle of all culture and all wisdom."

"The ancient Roman geographer Pamponny Myra in the first century A.D. praised us as 'the most just people in the world, famous for leaving their goods in the wilderness, and for the way in which the buyer came to collect them in the seller's absence.'"

The fourth-century Greek historian Marcellin wrote about the European perception of the time that the Seris did not know how to conduct war and use weapons. The Seris people prefer to cultivate their bodies quietly, so they are the easiest neighbors to get along with. ”

"You should know that there was a liar in Venice who wrote a book of Marco Polo's Travels based on hearsay. Although we know it's fake...... Well, even if what he said is true, the Yuan Dynasty is better than the Song and Ming dynasties. But Europeans in the late Middle Ages were fascinated by the 'city of light' he described. Because Seris is a country that is tolerant of paganism, a country with a prosperous economy, and a country with a strong military. ”

"At the time of the Great Discoveries, the writings of the Jesuit missionaries Seris were introduced to Europe. In the 16th century, the Spanish historian Juan GonzΓ‘lez Mendoza was commissioned by the Pope to write The History of the Great Chinese Empire, which was based on the descriptions of the missionaries, and became a bestseller in Europe. The book portrays the Chinese Empire as a new, perfect, and superior imperial image, a metaphor for an imperial order. It focuses on the unity and peace of the empire, the legal system and social justice, the advanced science and technology, and the advanced civilization. Thus Seris became the 'ideal country' of European intellectuals......"

"Voltaire wrote hymns for Qianlong, and also sang praises to Yongzheng as the most tolerant emperor."

"Leibniz believed that Confucius surpassed almost all the Greek philosophers known to Europeans."

"European philosophers have used the Cyris civilization as a weapon against the conservative Church, and it can be said that without us Cyris, there would be no Enlightenment in Europa!"

Needless to say, the level of our Master Yuan's speech is needless to say, and now relying on the charm bonus of the system, he and the "Highness of Temperance" are between him.

And he was talking about the glorious history of the Serisians, which made the twelve listeners feel proud and honored, and their faces were glowing with glory.

"But then the Enlightened Europeans came to their 'ideal country'......"

With Yuan Yanqian sighing heavily, the twelve zodiac signs also frowned.

After being silent for a long time, Master Yuan said leisurely: "Comrades, you are all Seris people who have lived in the West, so naturally you know what they think of us. ”

"Savage pigtail slave!"

"Ignorant opium guy!"

"Despicable Squint!"

As he uttered these unpleasant but real names, the faces of the "comrades" became more and more gloomy.

"Comrades, to tell you the truth, my brother and I have felt quite frustrated since I came to the United States. So it was really a bit of a self-defeating thing at first. At that time, I didn't even want to study, I just wanted to use alcohol, mahjong and women to anesthetize myself. ”

"Then one day I had an accident and almost died, and this experience finally cheered me up. Brother I want to do something to make those white skins change their minds about us Seris. Results ......"

He spread his hands and said with a wry smile, "As a result, they changed their opinion of me. So almost everyone who knows me has told me, Mr. Yuan, you really don't look like a Chinese because you listen to it! ”

"yes. After all, there are 40,000 of us, and it's normal to have an 'outlier' like me. ”

"However, I know I'm not an outlier, there are many, many Seris like me. It's just that they don't have a chance to show their indigo in front of the white skins. ”

"So ......"

Our Master Yuan looked around at everyone again, and said in a sonorous voice: "Brother, I will provide a chance for comrades to let Baipi know how much we Ceris people are listening. ”

"Let them know how much the world will listen to if we Syris people listen to Inphusi."

"Comrades, this opportunity is the 'Tai Sui Operation'!"

Then he picked up the chalk on a hot iron and explained the detailed process to all the members on a blackboard......

"Comrades, that's the plan."

Our Master Yuan threw away the chalk head in his hand, clapped his hands and said, "Finally, I honestly tell you the true purpose of the 'Tai Sui Operation'......"

"From a young age, this operation was to slap the British Empire in the face! The fight made the whole world resound, and they screamed! ”

"Hehehe......"

The crowd chuckled.

"From the Hongmen side, this operation also wants to let the people of the whole of China know that our Hongmen is a real patriotic organization, not a gang organization as chaotic as the Qing Gang!!"

The expressions of the crowd became serious.

"Speaking from Dali, although our motherland is not strong enough, we can ask for a little justice for our motherland to come back."

"As I said: we can't make the whole world recognize that Seris is a civilized country, and that the Seris are a civilized person. But we can let the world know that we deserve to be thugs. ”

Although he said "because of the blowing", but everyone's expressions were not at all because of the blowing, but quite solemn, and there was an inexplicable light flashing in their eyes.

"Comrades, since this is such a matter of blowing and listening, it is a bit vulgar to talk about money. But rest assured, each of you will get a 1% stake in Baisuishan Liquor. ”

"Based on the current market capitalization, it is equivalent to more than 1,500 US dollars. But brother, I guarantee that as long as Baisui Mountain is listed, it will definitely increase more than tenfold. ”

No matter how much you are motivated by righteousness, material rewards are still necessary. Fifteen hundred dollars is actually a lot, equivalent to two years' wages for high-level skilled workers in the United States and a courtyard house in the inner ring of the imperial capital.

"Comrades, I know that this operation is extremely dangerous, and I don't blame you for wanting to quit......"

"No, two...... That Comrade Tai Sui, I will never quit! ”

"I won't quit, Tai Sui, I won't leave if you drive me away!"

"Tai Sui, Lao Tzu also wants to listen to it!"

"Mr. Hung Chuan...... No, Mr. Tai Sui, you must let those whiteskins know about us Serisians...... Including us women how to listen to the blow! ”

"That's right, I don't want to miss it even if I die!"

"Good!" Yuan Yanqian solemnly hugged his fist and saluted everyone, "Brother, on behalf of 40,000,000 Chinese, thank you!" ”

"Boom la la ......"

The twelve zodiac signs also stood up at the same time and returned the salute with the gift of Hongmen.

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€

After a long, long time, our Master Yuan straightened up and asked everyone to sit back.

"Since the comrades are not quitting, then brother, I declare: 'Tai Sui Operation' will ...... from now on"

He raised his hand and looked at the Holmann Chern watch, which had finally been repaired with "restoration", and said, "It starts at ten o'clock in the evening." ”

"Finally, do you have any questions?"

"I have a question." Gu Mengmeng raised her little hand.

"Snake Member, you ask."

"May I ask if we launched Operation Tai Sui in the name of Nintendo? ”

Yuan Yanqian smiled and nodded, "Well, good question." But Nintendo is too ostentatious. I've come up with a good name for our team, and it's ......"
