Southampton, a famous port city in the United Kingdom.

After more than a month of sailing, Chen Liqing and his group finally crossed the ocean and arrived at the famous country on the west coast of the Atlantic, the United Kingdom.

The port of Southampton, which was their first stop on their journey to the UK. It is a well-known port for British ocean trade, and it is also an important passenger port in the UK. The more famous Mayflower, as well as the Titanic on which Jack and Rousi boarded, departed from this port. The city is also an important hub to the rest of the UK, and it is just a little over a 100-kilometre train ride to their capital, London.

Wharf, when Chen Liqing learned from Lawrence that the famous Titanic departed from this port, he was surprised, and at the same time he also learned that the Titanic sank on its maiden voyage in April 1912 last year, when China was still in a new country.

After getting the news, Chen Liqing was surprised, and couldn't help but sigh a little, if he had come a year earlier, he might have been able to save a lot of people. However, the past has passed, and in addition to lamenting the Titanic, which should have had this catastrophe, Chen Liqing then put away his thoughts and began to look at the appearance of Britain, the largest country on earth in the twentieth century.

Of course, in later generations, he also saw what Britain was like at this time through some movies, but how can movies see more clearly than reality. As soon as he got off the boat, what made him feel the most was the overall appearance and mental state of the British people at this time, looking at the past at a glance, every Briton who worked or did not work was filled with some kind of smile on his face, behind these smiles, Chen Liqing even saw some pride. At this time, Britain was a well-deserved empire on the earth, and their country led the trend of the world. How not to be confident?

Especially when some of the Englishmen saw the surprise and surprise of some foreigners at the sight of their advanced port, their faces became even more proud, and then there were some laughs or good-natured laughter. The British at this time, they barely had some gentlemanly style, especially in front of foreigners.

In addition to the mental outlook of these people, Chen Liqing's gaze then fell on the entire port and city of Southampton. There is no doubt that at this time, Southampton has a mature appearance of a modern city, on the advanced port, all kinds of large and small ships come and go, there are 10,000-ton giant ships, there are also flexible passenger ships, all kinds of ships show the prosperity and development of this port, people come and go, so lively.

This is the real big port!

Fangcheng's current small port, which has a maximum of a dozen ships coming and going every day, is not a port at all.

The gap, the gap between the two ports, came out all of a sudden, and the impact of reality can make Chen Liqing feel where the gap between China and the First Empire is.

Taking a deep breath, Chen Liqing turned his gaze to Lawrence beside him.

"Chen, are you going to stay in Southampton next, or do you want to go straight to London?" Seeing Chen Liqing turn his head, Lawrence spoke. He can understand the shock of foreigners when they see their country, just now, this young master from backward China must have been shocked, so Lawrence waited for Chen Liqing to react by himself.

"Then we'll stay here in Southampton for two or three days." Seeing the pride flashing in Lawrence's eyes, Chen Liqing was a little uncomfortable, but he could still barely figure out where Lawrence's pride came from.

"Okay, since that's the case, then Chen, you go and arrange a place to live first, I'll be busy with some things next, and after we're done, we'll discuss our cooperation." Lawrence said that he and Chen Liqing had reached a preliminary intention, and the two are now considered partners.

"It's okay, Lawrence, you go and get busy yourself, we'll arrange it ourselves." Chen Liqing waved his hand, he knew that Lawrence had something to do himself, and he was not a child.

Lawrence said goodbye to Chen Liqing.

"Okay, Britain, I'm Chen Liqing here!" Watching Lawrence go away, Chen Liqing's gaze became firm again, and at the same time, at this moment, he also looked back in the direction of France: "Europe, I'm here." ”

13 years in Europe, it should be very lively, he came, in addition to doing business and taking international students, he also took care of watching the excitement.

World War I, it seems, is not far away.

His eyes flashed, and then Chen Liqing turned around: "Everyone is ready, get off the boat!" ”

"Good!"

The young men on the deck with curious eyes immediately lined up when they heard the voice, and at this time they were not wearing typical long robes and long braids, but Mao suits made by Chen Liqing. Chen Liqing, who was yellow-skinned, black-eyed and wearing a gray-white neat tunic suit, and his party attracted the attention of many foreigners on the dock as soon as they got off the boat.

Britain was at the forefront of the world during this period, and of course there were suits. It's just that they didn't expect that the yellow-skinned, black-eyed Oriental would be so handsome and good-looking in this deformed suit. For a while, Chen Liqing and his party got off the boat, and many people began to point fingers.

Originally, those teenagers were a little nervous when they came to a foreign country, but at this time, they were even more nervous when they were looked at by these foreigners with curious eyes. But fortunately, they all remembered Chen Liqing's teachings one by one, and even if they were nervous, they still held their heads high. In this way, under the gaze of the people, Chen Liqing and his party all got off the boat.

The group of them walked directly to the wide place in the middle of the dock, and Chen Liqing's hand was raised. The team came to a neat stop.

Then, under the curious gaze of the people, Chen Liqing stood still, looking around at all the people on the dock who were attracted to them with his eyes.

With a wave of the hand.

Boom!

A bright red banner was suddenly pulled out in the ranks: "We are Chinese, we are real Chinese, we are very happy to come to the UK." ”

Two banners, one in Chinese and one in English, popped up on the docks in Southampton.

"We are Chinese, real Chinese? What exactly are they trying to do? ”

Their strange behavior immediately aroused the curiosity of many people, and in the curiosity, two yellow-faced people on a boat moored at the dock also noticed the action here. However, these two yellow-skinned Chinese were dressed differently from them, with a yellow-skinned man and even wearing a long shirt.

"Let's see." Another Chinese couldn't help but look at Chen Liqing and them. Originally, I was a little surprised to meet these two people in a foreign country, I was able to see so many familiar faces on the dock, and I was thinking about getting off the boat to meet them later, but I didn't think that this group of people would actually make such a move.

"Hello everyone, gentlemen, ladies and gentlemen, we are Chinese from China, and we are very happy to be in the UK this time. Here, on behalf of China, I would like to extend my greetings to all gentlemen and ladies. In the curious eyes of everyone, Chen Liqing, who was the leader, spoke.

As soon as he spoke, the dock was quiet, and somehow, his voice seemed to be equipped with a megaphone at this moment, and many people could hear it clearly.

"You must be wondering why I'm dressed like this, I'm going to tell you. Because we are real Chinese, you may have seen our compatriots before, but, strictly speaking, these compatriots of ours do not represent all of us Chinese. Before coming to the UK, I had heard people say that we were Chinese dirty, backward, unhygienic and rude...... and so on, so that everyone thinks that we Chinese are like this from now on. ”

"However, we Chinese, not as you think, we also love cleanliness, we also have our own etiquette, we even have our own laws, codes of conduct. We come from ancient China with a history of 5,000 years of civilization, and we have many fascinating cultures, and we are not barbarians in your eyes...... We used to be the largest country in the world, and our culture was once spread all over the world......"

Under the gaze of everyone, Chen Liqing began a unique impromptu speech. Although his English is not very good, he still has the ability to express himself. Everyone quickly understood why Chen Liqing did this, because Chen Liqing wanted to tell them what a real Chinese was.

Yes, Chinese.

This species, which was once ignored in foreign countries, re-introduced itself in a different way from the moment it landed on British soil.

Change, Chen Liqing needs to change.

He also needs to establish a new image of the Chinese, which is extremely important at this time and in the coming decades. (To be continued.) )
