Hamburg was settled by the Chinese people, who first appeared sixty or seventy years ago.

European merchant ships laden with silk, porcelain and opium returned to the port of Hamburg from southern China, and some of them were imprisoned under the cabin to work as heaters or engine room workers.

Later, with the boom in ocean-going trade, some European merchant ships began to recruit sailors in China.

Originally, these merchants only needed male sailors, but as the number of merchant ships gradually increased, Chinese sailors became very sought-after, and in order to recruit enough crews, some merchants began to agree to let women also do some handymen on the ships.

As a result, the wives of many Chinese sailors also drifted around with the merchant ships.

They cooked, sanitized, and mended the crew, and over time, some of the crew's families were abandoned in Hamburg because they could no longer leave with the fleet because of illness or childbirth. Their husbands were on the ship, and they were alone in Hamburg, so they joined each other, or built a hut or a few shared rooms, and settled in the St. Pauli district of the port.

As more and more Chinese people lived in the St. Pauli district, Chinatown gradually formed.

Before Hitler came to power, the Chinese had a new life in St. Pauli.

Some have relied on their savings and culinary skills to open restaurants and teahouses, while others have opened grocery stores, laundries and dance halls. At that time, the Chinatown area was very prosperous, and it was even directly called a "little China" by the Hamburg Evening News.

The "Sailor's Hall" was founded during this period.

The "Sailor's Hall" established by Chen Jilin was originally just an institution specializing in recruiting and caring for Chinese sailors, on the one hand, recruiting sailors from Huaxia to work in Hamburg, and on the other hand, helping Chinese sailors solve life or work problems.

When the war between China and Japan began, although the sailor hall was cancelled by the Hamburg authorities and had to be declared closed, because Chen Jilin and a group of old Chinese sailors could not bear to sit back and watch the suffering of the compatriots in Chinatown, they thought of many ways to help and relieve the compatriots, and even did not hesitate to scatter their family wealth for this.

After listening to Chen Jilin's story, Gauss couldn't help but be curious: "How many Chinese are there in Chinatown?"

Chen Jilin didn't think about it, and opened his mouth to report the number: "Three thousand three hundred and forty-five." ”

Gauss was impressed, but he couldn't help but wonder: "The Nazis' restriction and hostility to the Chinese people was not achieved overnight, could it be that in the past few years, everyone's life has become increasingly difficult, so they have never thought of leaving Hamburg and returning to China to make a living?"

Chen Jilin explained: "Of course some people have thought about it, and two years ago, I also sent a group of people back. However, now that China is at war, it is even more chaotic, and it is more difficult to make a living than in Hamburg. Within half a year, half of the people I sent away returned to Hamburg, and as soon as they told them about the situation, few of them dared to make a decision......"

Nils sighed at this time and said, "Now there is no peaceful place on this earth, except for the north and south poles. The Chinese warlords were divided for decades, and finally ended the civil war, but they started a national war with Japan. Although China is the boss, and Japan is only a second-rate power, one is full of devastation, and the other has been prepared for a long time. Although Germany is also at war, firstly, the war has not burned to the mainland, and secondly, the economy is far more prosperous than that of China, so it is no wonder that everyone would rather suffer in Hamburg than go back to China......

"North and South poles?" said Gauss, thoughtfully.

However, he temporarily pressed a little reverie in his heart, and instead told Chen Jilin his plan.

"I'm not exaggerating what I said before, even if the Chinese people in Chinatown need relief, when it comes to food, I can afford it. However, since there was such a large amount of food, the sailor hall could not find a place to store it, so it had to be flexible. I'm planning to buy an apartment in St. Pauli, and although I live mainly for myself, I can also store my food in the apartment. At that time, there will be no need to be so troublesome, and President Chen can send someone over to pick it up at any time if he needs it. ”

Nils was surprised, "Gao, are you looking for another place to live?"

Gauss smiled: "I don't mind sleeping on your couch all the time, but in a few days, I have two companions who will come to Hamburg, one of them is a woman, and we can't live in your house with two men and one woman, right? Don't think about money, money is a small thing. I have tens of thousands of marks on hand, which should be enough. If that's not enough, I can learn from Robin Hood and move back to the Nazi Bank. ”

Chen Jilin was stunned: "This is too risky, isn't it?"

Gauss smiled: "It's not risky at all, serving a cup of tea is no different from taking a leisurely walk." ”

Nils thought for a moment and said, "I'll discuss it with Lu Wan when I go back, and it's okay for her to agree with me." ”

Gauss raised his teacup: "Then it's settled." ”

The three of them discussed and stopped, Chen Jilin got up to leave, but Gauss stopped him.

"President Chen, if you have a convenient time, why don't you go door-to-door and send a batch of food to everyone first......

Chen Jilin didn't know why he said, "Now, how to send it?"

Gauss smiled and waved his hand, and suddenly three green-winged parrots flew out of nowhere.

These three green-winged parrots seem to be no different from ordinary parrots, but in fact, they are three flying pets, with skills and magic, and their strength in Azeroth is comparable to that of a third- or fourth-order professional.

Gauss summoned them out, and he had no choice but to do so.

To get something from the dimensional bag, you don't necessarily have to know magic, but you need to at least mobilize your spirit.

Chen Jilin, an ordinary person, of course, cannot understand how to mobilize his spirit.

Therefore, there were three green-winged parrots following to help Chen Jilin take things from the dimensional bag, so that he could distribute the food.

Gauss previously mentioned that when he bought the apartment and let Chen Jilin get food regularly, he also thought that no matter what pets he had, even small insects such as crickets, cockroaches, and beetles, they actually had their own skills or magic, and they could use dimensional bags. He can't always be in the apartment, even if he is not there, he can help Chen Jilin by leaving a few pets at that time.

The three parrots flew out, and Chen Jilin, Niels, and Lucas were dumbfounded, but at this time, Gauss took out three small leather bags out of nowhere, and then stuffed them into Chen Jilin.

Immediately afterward, he explained to Chen Jilin: "These three leather bags are the dimensional bags that our mages commonly use, they don't seem to be big, but they can actually hold seven or eight hundred cubic meters. My three dimensional bags contained grain, meat, and wine respectively, and according to one hundred pounds of grain, twenty pounds of meat, and ten bottles of wine per person, three or five thousand people could do their all. Of course, the things in this are a little different from what you see on the market, and the quality is better, remember to remind everyone when you send it, don't be too quiet. ”

Chen Jilin took the leather bag, and said, "I won't use this bag." ”

Gauss pointed to the three parrots: "They will use it." ”

Chen Jilin looked at the parrot as if he didn't believe it, and sighed: "Okay, I can try." ”

As soon as he left, the parrot flew out with him.

At this time, Lucas asked Gauss with great interest, "These parrots know magic?"

Gauss nodded: "I really understand." These three parrots are my pets and cannot be seen as ordinary birds. Don't look at your strength now, if you really do it, you can't deal with a parrot with a hundred. ”

This is not wrong at all, judging from the strength level of Azeroth, even if Lucas's strength is doubled, his strength is not comparable to that of a first-order professional, while the strength level of the green-winged parrot is basically at the third or fourth order, so against an ordinary person with a little more strength like Lucas, it may be a bit difficult to use the Cutting Wind and Hurricane continuously, and it may not be an exaggeration to defeat a thousand with one, and it is really not an exaggeration to defeat a hundred.

At 11 o'clock, the Red Wall Restaurant opens on time.

Gauss did not leave anything to make trouble, changed his appearance and went out on the street alone.

Since he said that he wanted to buy an apartment, of course he had to look around to see if he could find a suitable target.

When it comes to apartments for sale, there are quite a few near Chinatown in St. Pauli.

The reasons for this are all related to the current situation.

Although the Nazis were truly invincible in the European theater, they had not completely conquered Europe so far. Although the war has burned to the British mainland at this time, but across the English Channel, Nazi fighters used to bomb indiscriminately, and if they want to land and occupy LinkedIn, within two or three years, I am afraid it will be impossible to do.

Compared with the Nazis, although Britain's army was vulnerable and the air force was only satisfactory, the navy was not lagging behind. The Nazi navy blockaded Britain with submarines, but Britain was able to use warships to blockade Nazi Germany's seas.

Hamburg is the gateway to China and Europe, and the blockade of sea routes will inevitably hit the economy.

Therefore, the current prosperity of Hamburg is only a relative prosperity, and the market is still much more depressed than before.

The market is sluggish, and the number of apartments for sale will inevitably increase.

There is another reason, but it has to do with Nazi propaganda.

After the Sino-Japanese war, the Nazis promoted the Chinese people to be useless, which inevitably convinced some Germans living in the St. Pauli district, who were brainwashed and washed into a tendon by the Nazis, in short, they did not want to be with the Chinese people, so some of them also hung signs for sale outside the apartment, planning to sell the apartments in the St. Pauli district and move to other places.

Gauss walked around and really found a building on the jewelry street, and felt that it was a good fit to buy.

This is a three-storey single-family commercial building, although it is also considered to be facing the street, but the main building shrinks back twenty or thirty meters, and a vacant space flashes out in front of it, which is used as a parking lot;

Of course, this is a commercial building, and it is indeed a pity to live in an apartment.

Gauss remembered that he seemed to have told Frank to use his job at Ambrera as an excuse to explain his resignation from the library. A few days later, Frank and Buryatia arrived in Hamburg, and it didn't seem good to have nothing to do but learn magic, so it would be better to make an Ambrera himself.

Ambrera's umbrella seems to be a good idea.

As for what Ambrera runs, it's easy to say.

The owner of this building for sale was originally in the jewelry business, but because the gem mine he invested in South Africa was destroyed by the war, he lost all his money and could no longer do the business, so he had to go out of business.

Gauss swept through the dungeons in Azeroth, and gathered countless low-level jewels, which were useless and abandoned for Gauss, and he was not even interested in enchanting and dismantling.

Now it's different, as long as you destroy the additional magic on the jewel and retain the magic brilliance, you can naturally give it to Ambrera for sale, and in the eyes of ordinary people, these extraordinarily brilliant jewels should be considered a treasure each.

With such convenience, Gauss naturally decided that Ambrera would start the jewelry business first.
