Remember [Biquge Chinese Network] in one second to provide you with wonderful reading.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye, but Ye Shaolong lived like a year, always hovering between gains and losses every day. I am always waiting for news from Sterhaoran.
Today finally made it to the third day of the agreement, Ye Shaolong got up early, came to the gatehouse of the outer city alone and waited for the news from Tianjin City.
Foreigners are not good at anything, but one thing is that these businessmen are very punctual, they regard time as money. Where there is an agreement, both parties must be punctual in order to prove each other's sincerity.
Stern Haoran is no exception, he is also a businessman, and he is a businessman who regards time and money as his reputation. So early in the morning of the fourth day, he arrived at the port of Tianjin with eleven warships.
According to the original agreement with Ye Shaolong, the ship was all loaded with grain, gunpowder, and foreign guns. In short, everything needed to fight a war, as long as the forces to which Ste Haoran belonged had, he would put them on and bring them to Ye Shaolong.
Welcoming Stern Haoran was Su Can and Lin Biao, Su Can saw that the goods were constantly being transported down from the ship, and the old face smiled.
He has never had a good impression of foreigners, but for the first time, he felt that Ste Haoran in front of him was so cute. So much so, under his excitement and happiness, he did not hesitate to take out his life, those treasured good wines that he was usually reluctant to drink, and came out to entertain Ster Haoran.
Lin Biao had no interest in the goods that were about to fill the entire dock. The only thing he was interested in was the eleven warships that Sterhao Ran had brought.
These warships were even more advanced than those of the Wakos, and their all-metal hulls reflected the dazzling sunlight in the morning sun. The 300-meter-long hull makes people have to admire its ingenuity.
Such a big guy is definitely an invincible warship at sea at present, and Lin Biao is concerned about whether these warships will stay here in the end in addition to transporting goods, so that they can use them to defend against the upcoming seven-nation alliance navy.
Lin Biao, who suddenly came back to his senses, began to look for Ste Haoran's figure, only to see that he was drinking and chatting with Su Can. Lin Biao couldn't restrain his body and began to stride over.
With a little nervousness, Lin Biao stiffened his head and said, "May I ask ......." ”
The moment Ste Haoran turned around, Lin Biao's words came to his lips, but he couldn't say them anyway.
It's not that he is timid, but he thinks that he will follow Inspector Lin, and he is inseparable from all foreigners, including the Japanese Kou.
And now, he wants to ask them for a boat in a low voice, which makes Lin Biao unable to open his mouth. It made him feel sorry for Inspector Lin, who had passed away.
"Is there something wrong with you?" A very fluent but thick foreign voice came out of Ster's mouth.
Being able to question under such circumstances is obviously a person of considerable weight in the Yejiabao army. Stern Haoran was very polite, and he didn't mean to look down on Lin Biao at all.
Su Can's old face was flushed, and he had already sent a fast horse to Yejiabao to inform Ye Shaolong as soon as possible, informing him that Sterhao had sent supplies.
At this moment, seeing Lin Biao coming, he first handed over a jar of wine, and then introduced to Ster Haoran: "This is Lin Biao, the naval governor of our Yejiabao Army. ”
Then, Su Can pointed at Ste Haoran and said with a smile: "This is Mr. Haoran, and he is also the highest official in charge of sending us supplies." ”
"Disrespectful, disrespectful, it turned out to be the Governor of the Navy." Stern Haoran said politely, but there was obviously a trace of disdain in his eyes.
The sailors of the Qing Dynasty have never been the opponents of foreigners and Japanese pirates, and those warships that have been seriously backward cannot be compared with any of the forces of any side.
And when Ster Haoran heard that the person in front of him was the Inspector of the Yejiabao Naval Army, it was not surprising that he would look down on him.
Lin Biao obviously caught the flash of disdain in Ster Haoran's eyes, which made him very angry. But at this moment, he finally mustered up the courage, put down the shelf, and said to Ste Haoran: "Follow our Ye Shuai's meaning, I want to know if Mr. Haoran plans to leave some warships for us?" ”
Stern Haoran stared at Lin Biao for a long time, then suddenly shook his head and said, "Originally, we were going to leave a few ships for you, but before that, I must ask you carefully, do you know how to operate these warships?" ”
Ye Shaolong had insisted on asking for a battleship before, and after Stern Haoran went back to report, he quickly got a response. They can give Ye Shaolong a few warships, but the only problem is that they don't know if Ye Shaolong's subordinates know how to drive battleships.
If the boat is given to Ye Shaolong, and no one can drive him. Then what is the difference between giving these battleships to Ye Shaolong and throwing away other forces.
Therefore, Stern Haoran had one more task before sending the ship, and he had to make sure that someone in Ye Shaolong's forces knew how to drive these warships.
Lin Biao looked at Ste Haoran coldly, and nodded firmly: "Yes." ”
Naturally, Ste Haoran would not believe what Lin Biao said like this, and said with a smile: "Then call your people, and then we will go directly to the sea for sea trials." ”
"Yes!" Lin Biao replied coldly, then turned around and left, and went to beckon the Lin family gang to come and sail the boat.
Su Can saw that Stern Haoran and Lin Biao seemed to be chatting unhappily, and he was a little nervous, for fear that the relationship between the two would deteriorate and affect the cooperation between them.
The most important thing is that if the supplies that have completely filled the entire dock are withdrawn, then he will definitely not forgive himself, let alone Lin Biao, who almost did something bad just now.
"Mr. Sturt should not be as knowledgeable as young people, young people are relatively strong, don't take Lin Biao's impoliteness just now to heart." Su Can carefully accompanied the smiling face, but it was obviously the first time for him to speak in such a low voice, and his words were quite stiff.
Fortunately, Sterhao Ran didn't seem to take the unpleasantness just now seriously, he chuckled twice, and then began to walk towards the battleship docked on the shore.
Su Can was slightly stunned, and his face suddenly showed an unhappy look, after all, he didn't hesitate to be dignified, and for the first time he spoke in a low voice, he actually got such an innocuous response from Ster Haoran.
Su Can, who just called Stern Haoran a brother, would have already classified Stern Haoran among the foreigners he hated.
For Ster Haoran to bring such abundant materials to himself, those joys disappeared in this instant.
Lin Biao was very fast, and in less than half an hour, he gathered the Lin family brothers who were still helping to unload the materials just now. Then he ran towards the place where Sterhao Ran had stopped.
"My people have arrived, can I go to sea now?" Lin Biao still had a cold face. For mobile phone users, please browse M. Reading for a better reading experience.
