The provincial capital has undergone earth-shaking changes again in just two years, unlike the last time Ye Shaolong left, this place has long been occupied by foreign troops.

Chen Jiaming, who was in the position of leader before, was nowhere to be found, which made Ye Shaolong feel a lot more relieved. Otherwise, when he arrives in the provincial capital, his identity will have to be hidden, and he may be hunted down, which is not fun.

The ship docked at the mouth of the Pearl River, and Sun Yat-sen, accompanied by several members of the alliance, personally came to greet Ye Shaolong. made Ye Shaolong quite embarrassed.

The League also set up an office in the provincial capital, and under the leadership of Sun Yat-sen, Ye Shaolong and his entourage rested in the provincial capital for a day before leaving for Xiangjiang tomorrow.

Sun Yat-sen informed Ye Shaolong that Xiangjiang was currently occupied by the British Empire and was completely under the jurisdiction of the British Empire. Although there are many compatriots there, they are mostly laborers, and there are very few people who can speak there.

The intention was obviously to inform Ye Shaolong that he could do his best not to cause trouble, and that everything was to talk about the purchase of warships as the primary goal.

Ye Shaolong agreed without any consideration, on other people's territory, he naturally wouldn't mess around, if he hadn't thought he would have a long life.

A day passed in the blink of an eye, and in the early morning of the next day, Ye Shaolong, under the leadership of Sun Yat-sen, hurried to the dock and boarded a huge steamer.

The ship is said to be owned by the Confederacy and was used for trade with foreigners. Sun Yat-sen informed Ye Shaolong that the League would have an ocean-going trading company in the provincial capital, with five large ships under its name. There are more than 20,000 compatriot workers, and these people are scattered in all walks of life in the provincial city alliance.

The Xiangjiang Alliance also has an office, but it is much smaller than in China, and it is mainly used to communicate with foreigners or do business.

Ye Shaolong silently listened to Sun Yat-sen introduce the situation of the alliance overseas to himself, according to what he said. Many of the overseas members are actually overseas Chinese compatriots, and they are scattered all over the country to provide all the needs of the League.

It is precisely with the enthusiastic support of these people that the League can develop and grow in China. Just like going to buy a battleship this time, it was actually an overseas Chinese tycoon who was able to carry out smoothly.

Xiangjiang and the provincial capital are just across the sea, and the steamers depart early in the morning and arrive in Xiangjiang before dark. It is more prosperous and lively than the provincial capital, but the wharf where the ship docks in front of you is crowded with people.

This time when I came to Xiangjiang, neither side brought any more people, and the group added up to less than fifty people, except for some necessary personnel, the others were the best guards.

Following Sun Yat-sen down the steamer, Ye Shaolong saw a rather wealthy middle-aged man waiting. He's got a guy by his side!

Sun Yat-sen seemed to be very familiar with the visitor, and as soon as the two sides met, they hugged and shook hands, and then under the arrangement of the middle-aged man, several people got on the rickshaw and began to head towards the city.

For Xiangjiang, Ye Shaolong is also the first time to set foot in the Xiangjiang River, the business here is indeed very prosperous, and there are indeed many more foreigners than the provincial capital.

There are countless vendors and shops along the street, shouting and shouting one after another. There are all kinds of commodities, and Ye Shaolong has always thought that what he has seen in the provincial capital is already very open.

Now that he has arrived in Xiangjiang, he understands that he is still a frog at the bottom of a well, and at this moment, Xiangjiang has almost reached the prosperity of a small county town in later generations.

Xiangrui Restaurant, located in the bustling area of the street, has more than a dozen shops in the whole restaurant, four floors high. The architectural style is a Western model, but when he stepped into the restaurant, Ye Shaolong found that the decoration inside was completely Chinese.

When the people in the restaurant saw the middle-aged man taking the lead, they all bent down and bowed and called the master.

Obviously, the middle-aged man in front of him is the owner of this restaurant, and if he can own such a large-scale industry in the jurisdiction of foreigners, the middle-aged man in front of him should have a lot of ability.

At this moment, Ye Shaolong has already moved his mind to make friends, if he wants to develop overseas, the big businessman in front of him can definitely ask him for advice.

The middle-aged man led everyone straight up to the third floor, which seemed to be closed to the public, and there were no guests to see here.

Follow the middle-aged man around the third floor, and finally stop at the door of a room. The middle-aged man reached out and knocked on the door three times, then stopped and knocked three more times, and the door opened, and there were also two middle-aged men waiting inside.

"Mr. Sun, you're finally here, please come in." The person in charge of the Xiangjiang office who spoke, his name is Li Mu, and he looks very capable in a dress.

Mr. Sun smiled at him and led the crowd in, and the door was closed again.

Ye Shaolong found that there was a hall inside, which was very large, but there was nothing superfluous, except for a huge conference wooden table.

After the group sat down, Sun Yat-sen stood up, and by the way, he pulled Ye Shaolong to introduce to everyone: "Come on, come on, I'll introduce you to a young hero." ”

Sun Yat-sen pointed at Ye Shaolong, and then said with a smile: "This is Ye Shaolong, who repelled foreign troops twice in the north, and the last time he defeated more than 100,000 seven-nation alliance troops by himself." ”

Li Mu was the first to stand up, and said with a smile: "Brother Ye's name has always been like thunder, and when I saw it today, he was really a young hero, so good!" ”

Sun Yixian hurriedly introduced Ye Shaolong: "This is Li Mu, in charge of the office of the Alliance in Xiangjiang. All the big and small things in Xiangjiang are arranged by Li Mu, and his contribution to our alliance is not small. ”

Ye Shaolong was very modest, and he was not proud of his identity, he took the initiative to reach out and shake hands with Li Mu, and then called himself a junior, and praised each other politely.

Seeing that Ye Shaolong was so young and so mellow in his dealings, the middle-aged man who was the owner of the restaurant laughed and said: "Brother Ye really lives up to his reputation, I, Fluke, am a small businessman who does a small business in Xiangjiang. ”

Ye Shaolong was smiling, and Fluke in front of him was obviously deliberately testing himself. With the restaurant Ye Shaolong saw alone, he was sure that the identity of the middle-aged man in front of him would not be simple.

What's more, Fluke in front of him will definitely not have such a small property, otherwise he will definitely not sit here with Mr. Sun today.

Sure enough, Mr. Sun immediately introduced Ye Shaolong: "This Fluke is the president of Chinese businessmen in Xiangjiang, and Brother Ye is interested in developing overseas careers, so you can learn from him, and there will definitely be a big harvest." ”

Ye Shaolong already had this intention in his heart, and at this moment, he used Sun Yat-sen's words to praise Fluke fiercely. After all, Ye Shaolong is also a big warlord in China, and Fluke naturally does not dare to slack off, and the conversation between the two sides is very pleasant.
