Chapter 489: Not going ashore

In the eyes of the arrogant French noblewoman Madame Cavour, China's beautiful mountains and rivers are not attractive to her, so why go to China to enjoy the mountains and rivers? Italy and France have many scenic spots, such as the Alps, a hundred kilometers away, and she can't imagine a more magnificent mountain range than the Alps.

What really touched her was that she could communicate with Angelina during the journey, no mother in the world wants to stiffen the relationship with her daughter, she and Angelina have not seen each other for three years, what is lacking is communication, and she can also understand her daughter's career and life in China on the spot, she believes that there is always a chance to persuade her daughter back.

After a little hesitation, Mrs. Cavour turned her inquiring gaze to her husband, and Angelina's eyes were already full of anticipation, she felt that she could return to China without being separated from her mother, and her uncle's mention was fantastic, completely tailor-made for herself.

After a while, Cavour nodded: "Come back early, come here, go and arrange a place for your guests, and I will set up a banquet for you tonight." ”

"Thank you!" Wang Feng bowed slightly, smiled and thanked him

That night, Cavour held a sumptuous family banquet in the manor, unlike the Chinese who are accustomed to talking about business at the wine table, Westerners are silent, after eating, Cavour and Benito invited Wang Feng into the secret room to discuss the details of cooperation, and after fierce bargaining, basically reached an all-round cooperation agreement between the Democratic Alliance and Sardinia, or it can be said to be with the Cavour family.

From the second day, Wang Feng and others completely relaxed, led by Angelina to play in the mountains and rivers in Turin. Ten days of leisurely days passed, and Benito arranged a qiē properly. On 22 June, a procession of nearly 1,000 men left Turin. Head towards the harbour city of Genoa.

He was accompanied by engineers and equipment, medical workers, and hundreds of soldiers to keep Mrs. Cavour safe.

Two days later, four medium-sized warships sailed from Genoa, out of the Strait of Gibraltar, along the west coast of Africa, all the way south, around the Cape of Good Hope, and then north to the Arabian Sea. After passing through Sri Lanka and the Andaman Sea, entering the Strait of Malacca, it arrived in Singapore on the evening of February 5 of the following year, the sixth year of Qing Xianfeng, which was the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, and the fleet flew the French flag, and would rest overnight in Singapore before heading north to China the next day.

At that time, Singapore was in addition to the British Channel Governor's Office. Standing on the surface of the barn and looking at Singapor, Amelia couldn't help but say, "My God, China is so far away. We've been at sea for almost eight months, and we haven't reached China yet! ”

Bill also muttered: "No matter how far away we are, we will follow Mr. Wang Feng, but it's a pity." Many of the comrades in London died. ”

Including Wang Feng, everyone's faces were gloomy. Since leaving Genoa, the fleet has traveled around the continent. In addition to replenishing supplies, ships are always on the sea, almost isolated from the outside world.

However, after arriving in Sri Lanka, they finally heard the news from London, the British authorities withdrew their troops from the Crimean battlefield and returned home to quell the rebellion, the workers insisted on fighting but were outnumbered, and opportunists such as O'Connell and Lovett betrayed the nascent communist regime at a critical juncture, and the workers' movement was suppressed when they ran out of ammunition and food.

According to incomplete statistics, more than 20,000 government troops were killed and wounded, while nearly 50,000 workers were killed or wounded, including Papan, general secretary of the British Communist Party, Carter, Gene Kate brothers and sisters, and many other acquaintances of Wang Feng, and many others were arrested and sentenced.

"Hey~~" Wang Feng sighed and asked, "Bill, do you blame me?" I killed them indirectly. ”

"No!" Carl shook his head firmly: "Mr. Wang Feng, I don't blame you, Amanda and Amelia won't blame you, you woke up the workers and taught them to take up arms to fight, although the comrades suffered heavy casualties, but they are worse than dogs, what is the meaning of such a way of living?"

And the armed uprising was not meaningless, the comrades showed strength to the British government, the British government was forced to make many concessions, the treatment of the workers improved greatly, so the comrades did not die in vain. ”

Having said that, but this was exchanged for tens of thousands of lives, and there was always a heavy feeling in her heart, Angelina was also a little distracted, and familiar faces couldn't help but appear in front of her, and then she shook her head, and changed the topic and asked: "By the way, Wang Feng, I heard that Singapore is mainly Chinese, do you want to go ashore to have a look?" ”

"No!" Wang Feng couldn't even think of it.

Lin Youniang was stunned and said: "Overseas Chinese are living very miserably, don't you want to help them?" We all have the same blood in our bodies as them, and we are in a hurry when we come, and it is understandable that we don't go ashore, and now we don't have to rush, go and see what's wrong? ”

"Lin Youniang, I think you're tired of staying on the boat, right?" Wang Feng said disdainfully: "Because of the miserable life of overseas Chinese, I don't go ashore, if I see Chinese people being bullied, what should I do?" Can a few of us solve the problem?

From Singapore, not far from the Republic of Lanfang, I heard that the Dutch persecuted, the situation is also not good, do we care or not?

So out of sight is clean, and when you have the ability to solve the problem in Singapore, besides, there are still many banana people in Singapore, and if you run into it, kill or not? If we don't kill, I will panic in my heart, and if I kill and cause more incidents, if we expose our identities and attract the siege of the British army, even if there are hundreds of people in the army to help, we may not be able to return to China safely. ”

Zhou Xiuying and others think about it, although they are very unwilling, but their ability is insufficient, and some things are not mentioned if they can't see it, they don't mention it anymore.

After a while, as night fell, a little yellow spark rose on the shore, but Zhou Yanji suddenly asked: "Master, you always talk about banana people, I think banana people should be Chinese who have defected to foreigners, but why are they called banana people?" What do they have to do with bananas? ”

"Huh?" Lin Youniang and Zhou Xiuying immediately cast their puzzled gazes, didn't the banana man come out of Wang Feng's mouth once or twice, he didn't think about it before, just listen to it, but after Zhou Yanqi reminded him, it was a little incomprehensible.

Wang Feng said lightly: "Bananas, yellow skin and white heart, banana people, also wearing yellow skin, but the heart is not a Chinese heart, but a white heart that yearns for foreigners, do you understand?" ”

"Oh~~" There was a sudden sound of realization on the surface of the boat, indeed, the banana peeled is the banana man, too vivid!

"It's time to eat, let's all come in!" At this moment, Angelina's mother leaned half of her body out of the cabin, beckoned, and everyone poured into the cabin again.

Although today is the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Wang Feng has been abroad for a long time and has long forgotten about the New Year, and the vast majority of the people in Singapore are struggling on the death line, and the whole city does not have the slightest atmosphere of the New Year, so he has not been able to remind Wang Feng what a large group of people usually eat, and what they still eat tonight.

It's just that Suzhou is full of firecrackers, and the whole city is filled with a festive atmosphere. (To be continued......)
