"Now that the war is over for the time being, since we are no longer rivals, then we are friends. We are a hospitable people, and the classification of people is very simple, one is an enemy, the other is a friend. As he spoke, Lin Haifeng looked at Zhou Xiuying beside him, and then continued, "Mr. Marshali, I would like to ask, your government sent you all the way here to appreciate this ancient land, right?" ”

"Of course not, we are for friendship, for the benefit of both sides." Mashali said this with a little weakness. Although his words came casually in front of those officials of the Qing Dynasty, they had already been chewed up, but now, his smile was not so natural.

"You said it very well, for the sake of friendship and for the benefit of both sides." Lin Haifeng smiled, "I think so too." The Manchus were closed off and did not know the size of the world, so that the countries were anxious to open the door to this ancient country, and adopted the method of force. In a sense, this was not entirely a bad thing, at least for the Manchus. If they can really understand this, really understand their shortcomings, ten years is enough. In fact, the opposite is true. In order to consolidate their own interests, the countries had the so-called concessions, in other words, a bridgehead that completely opened the door to the Manchus, and what did they really get? The economic benefits are nowhere near as high as everyone expects. Of course, I don't mean despicable plunder, such as opium, and so on. For more than a decade, I would say that the nations have received more of a curse on our land. Friendly coexistence, equality and mutual benefit are the primary conditions for both sides to obtain the greatest benefits. The concession, as a freak, if it is not destroyed in our hands, will be destroyed by others sooner or later, this is inevitable, who will tolerate such a country on the land of their own country? ”

Lin Haifeng changed his sitting posture and pointed at Zhou Xiuying, "The concession is gone, but we have established an alien area, and as the property of the US government, we will protect it." At the same time, we still allow the people of any country to come and live here, to live and trade with us. Of course, it is by no means limited to Shanghai, and it is the same in all areas controlled by the Celestial Empire. The Celestial Empire will protect all legally operating businesses as it protects its own people, and this protection is far more reliable and more secure than that of the countries themselves. I have entrusted His Excellency Minister Bourblon, and your Mr. Wall, with many important messages to the nations. The government of the Celestial Empire is completely different from the government of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and we are willing to integrate into the big family of the whole world, and have friendly exchanges and peaceful coexistence with any country. We need the world, and the world needs us. In fact, we have opened Wuchang, Jiujiang, Anqing and other ports, as long as we really go to see, there will not be so many misunderstandings. These are benefits that no one can do by force. I am a very strange person, there is a saying, do you believe it, as long as I live for one day, from now on, whoever dares to use force against me, I will tell him never to set foot on this beautiful and rich land again! We, the Han nation, have always been counted. ”

Next, he talked a lot about the construction of the Celestial Empire and expressed the hope that the US government and people would devote themselves to these constructions. For example, the sales of American products in China, the cooperation between the government and private capital and the government of the Celestial Empire, etc. Masali's heart jumped and his heart jumped, and he swallowed his saliva from time to time. Could this be true?

At this time, Jin Nengheng and Fang Jingbo came in. They were notified by Sang Yu and came to see the prince of the Celestial Empire again.

As soon as Mashali finished his introduction, Lin Haifeng smiled at Jin Nengheng, "Mr. Jin came just in time, and I don't have to look for you again." The ship of munitions that you were hijacked to our side has been carefully studied by the Celestial Empire government, and it has decided to pay you the money of the merchant house according to the official price. Tomorrow, you can send someone to the city to find His Excellency Liu Lichuan to collect the money. I know that your Qichang Foreign Bank will be fined a huge amount by the Celestial Empire government this time, but one yard is one yard, and those who should be punished must be punished, and those who should be paid back must be returned. I have heard that your foreign bank has supported our Shanghai Heavenly Army, and the development is also good, so don't lose confidence because of a temporary setback. There are many opportunities in the Celestial Empire, as long as you seize the opportunity, the time to make money is still to come. At the very least, I should thank you. ”

Jin Nengheng grinned, it would be false to say that he was not uncomfortable, but it was better to save a little bit than to get nothing.

"It's a pity that my prince is sealed by the Celestial Empire, and the laws of the Celestial Empire must be strictly enforced." Lin Haifeng shrugged his shoulders and seemed to be helpless, "Otherwise, I'd rather not punish you Qichang." What I'm saying is true. ”

Jin Nengheng really planned to pull Fang Jingbo to plead with this prince in private today, at least to be punished less. Now, after listening to Lin Haifeng's words, he looked at Fang Jingbo and smiled helplessly.

"Your Excellency, I would venture to ask, where did you learn your English? Have you ever been to the United States? Marshali finally couldn't hold back his curiosity and asked.

"Hehe, I'm sorry, I haven't been to your country." Lin Haifeng smiled, "I studied in France. However, I would like to see the day when I can easily spend a beautiful summer on the West Coast of the United States. ”

"Welcome, welcome to the United States as our friend." Marshali dealt with it casually, and his heart couldn't help but move, no wonder, no wonder he was able to talk to Burbulron.

"Okay, I won't disturb your time." After chatting for a while, Lin Haifeng stood up, he looked at the imitation of the famous Italian painter Da•Vinci's oil painting "Mona Lisa" hanging on the wall, and looked back at Mashali and others in front of him, "There are many things in the West that are worth learning and learning from, such as this oil painting, which looks very realistic." ”

"Fake, fake." Marshali smiled sheepishly, "Still, it's a fake that's good enough to be fake." ”

Lin Haifeng also smiled, "Da•Finch's painting has left many different feelings for future generations, some people think that she smiles comfortably and gently, some people think that she seems to be strict, and some people feel that she seems to be slightly sad, and even shows ridicule and ridicule. It can be seen that people have different perceptions of the world from different perspectives of understanding and observation. You have all come here in the national interest, and I sincerely hope that gentlemen will take a hard look at our country and set up more windows on our land than bridgeheads. ”

"Your Excellency, I heard that you are interested in building a railway from Shanghai to Tianjing?" Kim Neng-hyung asked.

"Haha, you're very well-informed." Lin Haifeng nodded, "Not only from Shanghai to Tianjing, railway construction will be the top priority of the Celestial Empire." ”

Kim Nenghyung's brain buzzed, a big deal! He hurriedly barreled Fang Jingbo beside him.

Fang Jingbo nodded with a smile and bowed his hand to Lin Haifeng, "His Royal Highness King An, our Jin Taipan means that we want to become a supplier of future projects. ”

"Okay, we welcome, as long as it's fair, we welcome anyone to come." Lin Haifeng smiled and glanced at Ma Shali deliberately, "I'm just afraid that your Qichang strength is too small and you won't be able to do it when the time comes." ”

"Yes, I must be able to," Jin Nengheng patted his chest repeatedly, "With the help of the government, I will definitely be able to do a good job." ”

Ma Shali looked at Jin Nengheng's impatient appearance, and sighed secretly in his heart, this guy doesn't have the temperament of a diplomat all over his body.

Ali Guo is now feeling sick to the house. He didn't get any news of what was going on outside, so he had to sit back and wait. If he was reluctant to sign the disarmament order at first, he was afraid that there would be no army, but now, he was anxious to tell those troops to quickly lay down their arms. His own government was fighting with France against Russia with all its might, and there was no time to pay attention to it for the time being, and a large-scale war could not break out. He seemed to have suddenly figured out that with this little army, in the face of such a huge territory, the past victories and glories could only be regarded as a fluke, and the most important thing now was to save the lives of some royal sailors. A gentleman takes revenge, ten years is not too late, why fight for a momentary high and low.

Brigadier Yi Lu has returned, symbolizing that the glorious fleet is no longer alive, but there is no news of General Stellin's brigade. He began to sweat a handful.

When he saw the rebel King An in front of him again, Ali Guo felt both indescribable worry and worry, and an indescribable hatred, and really wanted to go up and hug the other party and eat it.

After doing the face-saving thing, Ali Guo stared at the leader of the rebel army, waiting for the other party's words.

"What a pity!" Lin Haifeng spread his hands with a sad face and sighed, "I regret to inform Your Excellency that your orders and requests have not been accepted by General Stellin. ”

Oh, God! As soon as Ali Guo closed his eyes, it was over, this was a pretext to start the massacre of expatriates, right?
