Hearing Yang Sanda say that he knew Napoleon, his tone was still so firm and serious, Yang Lin was stunned at the same time, he couldn't help but believe a little in his heart, but more of it was still doubtful, not completely convinced, and felt that there was a bit of bragging.

However, Yang Lin can clearly feel the scholarly spirit and elegant style of the other party, and braggart is rarely seen in an intellectual? After all, it will be a very embarrassing thing once the cowhide is punctured, especially for foreign intellectuals who think they have returned from school.

If Yang Sanda boasted about how much knowledge he had, how much he knew, and what kind of world he had seen, Yang Lin would still be able to understand it, and feel that it was human nature, and perhaps he still didn't believe his understanding of Napoleon's words at all.

Although he hesitated in his heart, he was not sure what Yang Sanda was like, after all, it was the first time they met and the first time they communicated. However, Yang Lin's plan to send people across the ocean to introduce natural science knowledge and the plan to introduce various talents has been determined and imperative. Even if this Yang Sanda is really unreliable, he also has his own coping strategy, prepare with both hands, so as not to lose his wife and lose his army.

At this time, Yang Sanda put away that smug look, showing off, and no longer was complacent about knowing Napoleon, but suggested: "Hall Master, if you really want to have that natural science knowledge, and really want to introduce those talents, if you are very eager, it is best to prepare the ship and the entourage as soon as possible." ”

"Why the hurry? You just came back, why am I embarrassed to let you leave so quickly and leave for Europe, you must be angry with me, you are annoyed by my question? Yang Lin was a little puzzled why Yang Sanda said that in the end, and asked so tightly about the time.

"That's right, hall master, the route from us to Europe is very long, and the shortest is three or four months. When we set sail in late autumn and arrive in Europe, it is about the beginning of spring, and although there are small icebergs or ice fles on the sea from time to time, they are much stronger than the frozen sea. ”

"In the cold winter, some docks in European countries will freeze, ships cannot enter and exit, it is difficult to dock, and it takes a long time to enter the docks to berth. If it were a little later, it would probably be the turn of spring and summer, when storms at the Cape of Good Hope are common in Africa, and it would be dangerous to sail by. ”

Yang Lin showed a sudden look, how could he forget this stubble in the secret way? If he hadn't handed over most of the things in the tooth shop to Master Liu, I am afraid that he would still be busy reviewing official documents, all of which were business dealings between foreigners and merchants from the thirteen merchants in Guangdong, and he couldn't help muttering.

"No wonder I haven't seen Master Liu very much recently, it turns out that he is busy with the business of foreigners and merchants, and he has no time to take a horse. In normal times, the old boy is trying his best to please himself, and he will always run to flatter him or two, and say some beautiful words and flattering words. ”

"Hall Master, what's wrong with you? What do you think? When are you going to send me to Europe, to France? ”

Yang Sanda's repeated questions seemed to be about the heart, which made Yang Lin, who was distracted, stunned, and immediately turned around, and said subconsciously: "En, what, uh... Of course, the sooner the better~"

As soon as the words came out, Yang Lin had already reacted, and added: "However, this trip to Europe, whether it is in terms of staffing or ship arrangement, it will take a period of time to prepare, carefully select and purchase, and it is difficult to get it done in a short time." ”

"But fortunately, there is still some time before the end of autumn, which should be enough for me to prepare, and you can also take a good rest during this time. After all, after three or four months on the ship, it is estimated that I can't hold it at sea, so I will walk around Guangzhou more, get together with our old hall master, have a good talk, and talk about feelings. ”

At this moment, when Yang Sanda was about to answer, when he agreed, there was a sudden rush knock on the door outside, and Yang Lin was still thinking about it just now, and his familiar voice came, really thinking about something, which made people angry.

"My lord, the little Liu Boqi Master Liu, I have something urgent to find you, I want to report to you, and I hope you will see the little one."

Yang Lin looked at Yang Sanda, and when he saw him make an indifferent expression, he didn't mind, he didn't seem to care that Master Liu recognized him, and let him decide, so he shouted loudly: "You come in~"

With a squeak, the door of the study was gently pushed open, and Master Liu appeared in the sight of the two, and then bowed in, cautious and respectful.

As soon as he stood still, between the two of them, he did not immediately say what he was talking about, but explained.

"My lord, the little one didn't mean to disturb you, but he didn't find Yang Xiao, and the matter was a little urgent, so he came to knock on the door of the study without any communication, and I hope my lord will forgive me."

Yang Lin was a little surprised, the two didn't know each other, they didn't look like they were pretending, they didn't look like they were turning a blind eye, a person Zhai Dakun trusted, a Zhai Dakun's son-in-law, a little abnormal.

Although he was a little surprised, he didn't think much about it, waved his hand to show that it was okay, and said with a slight smile: "It's okay, Master Liu, you still want to talk about something first, why did you make you so anxious to see me?" ”

"Well, yes, my lord, you can take a look at this first, the official notice issued above."

Master Liu stepped forward, took out an official document from his sleeve, and handed it to Yang Lin, as if he was talking to himself, as if he was telling Yang Lin.

"It's really weird, I don't know what's going on? At this time in previous years, even if there were many victims of the disaster in Guangzhou Prefecture, no matter how many foreigners requested, the yamen would at most deal with it, and they had never taken it so seriously. ”

At a glance and ten lines, after Yang Lin read the official document, he did not pay attention to Master Liu, and even took over the conversation and answered his questions, but he knew in his chest that there were eight or nine points of certainty, and this official document was not unrelated to the robbery of the merchants of Luzon.

Just the day before, Yang Lin got the definite news that the nitrate merchant Feng Zhuogan returned to himself, the Luzon businessman in Macau reported to the official, and the Portuguese consul Philips.

Maybe a Luzon merchant yamen can ignore it, but Philips can't ignore it, after all, the Guangzhou Mansion and the Portuguese fleet have just joined forces to exterminate the pirates, and it is impossible not to give a little thin face at this time.

Therefore, it is not surprising that there is such a proclamation.

However, Yang Lin, who was holding the proclamation at the moment, was not concerned about these, but found a useful piece of information from it, and there was an inexplicable surge of excitement, and he had a plan, Yang Lin was ready to change the original plan and change the way Chao Sheng and others entered the Guangzhou Mansion. It is neither arranged in the deaf and dumb hall, nor integrated into the thunder, but mixed in with these victims.

Thinking about it, Yang Lin couldn't help but slightly outline the corners of his mouth, and a smile struck. That kind of expression, saying evil and inappropriate, saying smug but not completely described, in short, is very difficult to describe, indescribable, and gives people a very strange feeling.

Faintly, a glimmer of light appeared in Yang Lin's eyes, a little glaze, and then it flashed, indicating that he had already made a bamboo in his chest, and this change was very wonderful, and it was a matter of integration.

Thousands of thoughts only happened in an instant, and in a short period of time, when Yang Sanda and Master Liu felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere in the study, Yang Lin had already turned around and calmly explained.

"Okay, Master Liu, I know about this matter, it's up to you to do it! You can consult with those merchants about what to do, even if you send the officials of the Ya Shop to let them cooperate with the actions of the other yamen. After all, it is not our purview to maintain law and order and arrange for the victims. ”

"Okay, sir, then I'll go down first."

"Well, you go down!"

As soon as Yang Lin waved his hand, Master Liu immediately bowed and left, slowly exited the study, and closed the door. (To be continued.) )
