Chapter Twenty-Five: Iron Bridge III
(Later in the Second Opium War) I decided! I'm going all over the world! If you still fool around in China and fight with foreigners, the end will be miserable. While we were still chatting here, foreigners were already coming to China. We can't stop the tide of our time.
This kind of struggle will only lead to the indifferent sacrifice of comrades. I don't want to see my companions sacrifice anymore. In the future, we must have a higher vision. The vision must be to look down on Chinese and foreigners, and even the whole world. So I'm going all over the world.
Drive a big ship around the world and earn the benefits of the whole world. How's that, Feihong? It's a waste to stay in this country, you're a man of magnanimity. Why don't you join me.... (Tieqiao San said to Huang Feihong)
Whew...
Ahahahaha! Oh my! Let's have a meteorite and crush this guy to death! Ahaγγγγγγ
(On an island) haha! It was so dangerous just now! Why is it so hot here? The past replays in my head like a movie. I was finally saved, but I was still in danger. (Tieqiao San touches his head)
What was saved? Look at this scene... Like saved? (surrounded by a large desert)
Anchored to this island that looks like an old woman's skin, what do you say? Why are there two suns? Is that my baby? (Fei Hong said)
If you hadn't ripped the rudder off, it wouldn't have happened.
Ahaha! Forget all about the past, men have to look forward.
How dare you play stupid? Dead pigtailed man! (Fei Hong grabs Tieqiao III)
It's hot enough, don't make any more noise. (Liang Kuan pulls Feihong's clothes)
Guilan... Are you okay? Girls can't adapt to the strong sunlight in the first place. (Liang Kuan asks)
Don't worry, I'll just wear the veil. I'm a little thirsty though... I'll go to that river and drink some water. (Guilan walks to the desert on the other side)
Where there is a river! It can't be like this! You can't go to that river! (Liang Kuan looks at the desert where Guilan walked)
Dad... Forgive me, I don't care about studying abroad anymore, I just want to drink water now. (Liang Kuan dragged Guilan back)
Who's your dad! Fei Hong! Guilan was already delirious.
Hey, hey! Guilan! Cheer up a little (Fei Hong shaking Guilan)
Dad! I decided to study in the UK anyway.
Yes... This won't work, you're already looking straight at you.
No way... Then I'll carry you to drink water.
Did you see that too?
What words! Don't you see? Yes! And the garden! Yes! The Daqing Daily reporter is also there! Let's get married! (Fei Hong said)
What are you talking about? Isn't that Dong Anqi? Let's get married! (Tieqiao San said)
Finished! No one can believe it anymore! We're done! (Liang Kuan holds his head)
Yes... What is that? (A tourist looks at it and says)
Call! Call! (A large battleship drives over)
It's a boat! Someone came to our rescue! We are saved! (Tourist shouts)
Ha ha! I'm so sorry... I'll let you come here to pick me up, Jiang Lin'er.
This kind of thing is just once, our ships are not for rescue, but for business. You're the boss... This kind of thing happened. It's nerve-wracking... (A woman in a jacket says)
Next time, don't run around without us.
Ahaha... I'm so sorry, but I still think Chinese women are the best.
There must be a limit to playing with women, otherwise you will get sick again.
Ahaha... That kind of rotten woman, I'm going to kick her.
Mr. Tetsuhashi, this is... (Liang Kuan asks)
Ahhh This counts as my private fleet. But this isn't a fleet for combat, it's actually a company.
Firm?
yes, we use it to make big deals. Buying and selling goods back and forth between countries... It's trade.
However, the world has not been very quiet lately. For self-defense, it can only be armed.
Hey... That's cool! Mr. Tetsuhashi is not a fool!
Ahaha! Is this a compliment to me?
Although Fei Hong and I used to deal with foreigners, I really don't like to kill. It is not by force or thought that people can act, but by profit. I want to pursue the interests of foreigners and Chinese through trade and regulate the relationship between the two sides. I want to protect the country in my own way. Although he is a gangster, he still hopes to change the entire social system. In order to overthrow the Qing Dynasty, Wang Yinlin thought of a lot of plans. You just have to do it your own way!
Oh! Everybody's amazing. However, the boss of my family makes it difficult to understand what he is thinking. (Liang Kuan looks at Feihong)
Aha! He's more elusive than I am! But he must have certain qualities in bringing people together. Just like those who are attracted by my and Su Can's ambitions. Aren't you and that girl attracted to some of his qualities?
Well... Actually, I don't know, but...
Help me! (Two visitors are entwined by giant tentacles)
Ah? What is that?
Aha! We can't stand the heat and start hallucinating?
Leave it alone, it's just an illusion... Ha ha!
No. Mr. Tieqiaosan, it seems that something is entangled in you.
Ignore it, it's just an illusion! Aha! (Tieqiao San is caught by tentacles)
Woo aaa Mr. Iron Bridge!
That... What's that?
There are monsters!
Is that
It was the king squid, the creature at the top of the Pacific Ocean. Usually very calm. But as soon as there is a commotion on the island, it will wake up... (Jiang Lin'er said)
Feed! Your boss is already in trouble, and you're still so calm?
Because you're always so willful, this kind of thing happens. King squid... Slaughter that pigtailed man! His key point is the lower body!
What the? Do you have a deep enmity with him?
Ahaha! How could I have died in this place!
Click! (The sound of a pistol being loaded)
Flee!
Bang! Bang!
Get... Saved!
It's here! (King Squid gushes out)
Not good! It looks like it's going to drag the whole ship into the sea! (Jiang Lin'er said)
With cannons! Leave me alone! Attack it with artillery!
However, Mr. Tieqiao... (Liang Kuan said)
Cannon fire!
Feed... What are you doing? Do you want to kill Mr. Iron Bridge?
I can't jeopardize everyone's safety for the sake of him alone. What should be done now is to save the lives of passengers. His mantra is not to lose the righteousness... Launch!
Rumble! Rumble!
During the Second Opium War, he abandoned his partners in ground battles and traveled around the world. Do you know why he did it? It's all for the sake of righteousness. Rather than choosing the immediate struggle, I should look to the future, and I had to make this difficult decision for the sake of the future of my country. We were drawn together by Him, so we must not violate His way of survival. What's more, he won't die because of this.
No, no, no! He's going to die! He's dead! He's about to be dragged into the sea! The king squid is going to hide in the sea! Not good... Mr. Tieqiao San, he... (Liang Kuan said anxiously)
Clean it up before it hides in! We want to save Mr. Tieqiaosan! (Says the crew)
If you use a cannon, it will hide in the sea, and we will wake it up. Before I insist on righteousness, let me implement the principles. (Fei Hong looks at the king squid)
Fei Hong!
Who are you to say about me! Tieqiao III, you said before that you wanted to make a lot of money, so is it over? In the past, I would just talk and not practice, look at me! Live the life you want to live! (Fei Hong said)
(At the end of the Second Opium War) yes... You're right. It would be more fun if you were...
I'm so sorry. Don't look at me like this, I still like China very much. You can go around the world and play to your heart's content. You are not suitable for a small business. Take the big net and go to the world, and you can catch it as much as you like. (Fei Hong said to Tieqiao San)
So what are your plans for the future?
I? Well... I want to live a leisurely life in Chinaγγγγγγ
Hehe... Yes, you did. Really... I had no idea what he was thinking. However, it is because of you that I can go all over the world. Because you stayed in China, I was able to leave without worries.
Fei Hong... Even if I'm on the streets... You're going to throw me back all over the world, too...
Yes! It's Mr. Tieqiao! (Fei Hong rescued Tieqiao San from the sea)
Mr. Three Iron Bridges is still alive! (Guilan said)
It's just too risky. (A crew member says)
Even he was almost dragged in. What the hell was he thinking... (Jiang Liner looked at Huang Feihong)
yes, what the hell are they thinking... Maybe only they know ... (Liang Kuan said)
