Woo......

A loud whistle sounded on the sea, startling a group of seabirds, and at the same time alarming the long-waiting Lifu on the pier, who rushed to the other side of the pier to get ready to work.

The star-striped flag fluttering on the ship indicates the origin of the ship.

A young man in a suit, a top hat and a pair of black-rimmed glasses stood at the bow of the ship, looking excitedly at the densely populated Chancheng Wharf not far away.

Is this the Qing Kingdom?

Surrounded by foreigners coming and going, this young man with glasses speaks fluent bird language and can easily communicate with foreigners, without the slightest hint of humility in his expression.

When the ship docked, the young man with glasses took the rattan box, and after the foreigners got off the ship first, he disembarked under the unpleasant gaze of the crew, and was quite angry and helpless at the rudeness of the crew.

It's just that when he stepped on the hard three-way ground of the dock and looked at the busy but orderly dock in front of him, he was stunned for a moment.

Clean, tidy and orderly!

It was not as dirty and messy as the docks he had ever seen, nor the smug of thieves with bad intentions, nor the foul smell that filled his nose, which gave him a sense of surprise.

Here, is the ignorant and backward Qing country in the mouth of foreigners?

It was the United States where he was born, and all the docks where the ships docked along the way, none of the piers in front of him made him feel comfortable.

Looking at the pulley boom raised high on the wharf, it is easy to lift and put down the heavy cargo carried on the seagoing ship, as well as the two luggage belts pulled by mules and horses.

Not to mention the order on the dock, the foreigner dock I have seen in the past is completely incomparable.

Whether it is a foreigner or a Qing person, they are busy in an orderly manner.

What surprised him the most was that the arrogant foreigners he had seen in the past seemed to be very peaceful and well-behaved here, and they did not get angry at the busy Qing people on the dock for no reason, nor did he see them make angry and angry things, which was not like the style of foreigners.

The density of the flow of people on the wharf also surprised the young man with glasses, and there were all people at a glance, which also showed the busy scene of the wharf, and he couldn't help but be speechless.

Following the bustling flow of people, he soon saw a series of brick and wood buildings next to the dock square, where the strong smell of food and wine wafted in, causing his stomach to growl.

The feeling of hunger welled up in my heart, and I subconsciously walked towards the brick and wood building.

Hey, that's ......

Squeezing out the dense crowd, you will see a neat row of small brick and wood shops, including taverns and restaurants, fruit shops, and grocery stores, and most of these shops sell ordinary daily necessities that can be seen on the market.

What made him feel strange was that most of the customers who came and went to these shops were foreigners, and only a few Qing people patronized them, and he didn't know what was going on.

In addition, there are strong and strong young people outside these shops, and they are not easy to mess with at first glance, and from time to time there are teams of young people patrolling back and forth, which are very well protected.

It's just that this is a must, this is just a place to eat and buy things.

He didn't think about it so much, he walked into the restaurant with the strongest aroma of the food, and invited Xiao Er to stammered and asked for a few specialty dishes, and he didn't ask for wine, and when the food was served, he devoured it for a while, and ate the food on the table cleanly after a short time, he was really a little hungry, of course, the food in the restaurant tasted very good.

"This, this, this meal money, how, how, why is it so, how expensive?"

When it was time to pay, the price of the meal was unexpectedly expensive, and it was not much worse than the food on the ship.

"Guest officer, our dock shops are all doing foreigner business, so it's no wonder that the price is not high!"

The guy wasn't angry, he just told the truth that the young man with glasses was speechless.

Some flesh hurt and paid for the meal, he was going to leave directly, but the shopkeeper who collected the money suddenly asked: "Guest officer, do you want to play inside?" ”

The young man with glasses was moved, and remembered what the shopkeeper said, the shop here at the pier is specially opened for foreigners, and the facilities inside should be similar.

"All, all, all, there, something, so fun, fun!"

He stammered badly, just a word, but the young man with glasses spoke for a long time, and he was sweating on his forehead and dry mouth, so he was not depressed.

After listening to the inquiry of the young man with glasses, he immediately enthusiastically introduced: "There is a gambling house, there is a green building, and the most lively competition in the ring, I don't know where the guest officer wants to go?" ”

The young man with glasses showed a displeased look, where is this?

Qinglou Gambling House is not a good place to go, and it is also a shop specializing in foreigners' business, which is not good to think about.

He traveled thousands of miles from San Francisco to Chancheng, but he didn't want to be contaminated with these harmful things, neither the Qinglou nor the gambling house was a place he was willing to go.

The shopkeeper's ability to observe words and expressions is good, seeing the displeasure on the face of the young man with glasses, he noticed the problem as soon as his brain turned, and hurriedly turned his mouth and smiled: "If the guest officer doesn't like those places to play, it is better to watch a ring competition, today there are two disciples of Master Huang, a master of Chancheng martial arts, participated!" ”

"Oh, the Master Huang you're talking about won't be Master Huang of Bao Zhilin, right?"

The young man with glasses was interested and couldn't wait to ask; "Did his disciples even participate in the ring competition, if that's the case, then I really have to see it well!"

"Exactly!"

The shopkeeper hurriedly nodded and smiled; "I won't disappoint the guest officer!"

Without being reminded by the shopkeeper, the glasses youth took the initiative to give a small piece of broken silver as a tip, which made the shopkeeper smile happily, and hurriedly took the glasses youth into the wide building at the back of the store.

After spending more than a dozen copper plate ticket money at the door, entering the ring competition area through a long passage, suddenly a deafening cheer and shout poured into his ears, startling the young man with glasses.

When he gradually adapted to the surrounding environment, he squinted his eyes and looked at the ring in the center of the arena, and the scene that happened above made him stunned, and his mouth was so open that he didn't close it for a long time.

A bald young man with a strong body and a sturdy shirtless body was knocking a blonde foreigner who was taller and stronger than him to the ground with one punch.

The banging sound sounded sore, and the strong foreigner was obviously not lightly injured, and he couldn't get up no matter how hard he struggled.

Sizzle......

When the young man with glasses saw this scene, he couldn't help but gasp, not to mention the bald young man's strength to knock over foreigners who were taller and stronger than him, just the ruthless ferocity of this guy scared him.

When will the Chinese be able to beat foreigners so openly......
