5100 VIP guests from Shonai

Tianjin Weicheng City was built completely according to the trend of the Haihe River. During the Qing Dynasty, the urban areas were concentrated on the south bank of the Haihe River, and the north was basically filled with croplands and villages.

When building the railway, the location of the railway station was selected according to the geographical location of the Tianjin Station in later generations, which was on the north bank of the Haihe River. The key was that the land was convenient and cheap.

Behind the railway station is a large warehouse area and a material pile area. You can see the lights of the foreign concession in the south through the Haihe River, and you can also see the outline of the old Tianjin city wall in the northwest.

Walking through this warehouse area, you will see the crop fields, wheat, corn, and many watermelon fields, vegetable fields. When you look forward, Deng Shichang's eyes lit up.

"Ah! Gas lamp? What a big courtyard..."

It is indeed a very large courtyard, with three courtyards of blue bricks and red tiles, all across the courtyards. The roads between the courtyards and the courtyards are bright, and there are gas lamps more than ten meters away. In the era when there was no lighting of electric lights, this kind of infrastructure was already top-notch.

"Big! This is a farm that is built on the ground with the King of Far East. It is called Jingwu Heroes Club. We are all called Heroes Village!"

"Not to mention living in seven or eight hundred people, even two or three thousand people are fine... Look at the stones and bricks piled up in the west. When we look back, we have to build a circle of walls here, and the whole village will have two gates in the north and south..."

This young Huo Yuanjia is really not well-informed. The court is afraid of hearing what he says on purpose. The guards from the capital in the dark all their faces turned pale.

"Haha, when the wall is repaired, a circle of trenches will be dug outside and a watchtower will be built inside... We are not afraid of many bandits or foreign devils coming to fight!"

Brother Horn was so angry that he kicked him secretly, "You little brat, do you know what's wrong? You dare to show off in front of adults?"

Deng Shichang and the others were silent and walked forward with a smile. In a short while, they heard a fierce barking of fierce dogs, and twenty or thirty dogs barking.

Several patrol guards suddenly appeared under the gas lights. One of them was holding two slick German wolf greens, and their ears stood up, grinning and alerting to these uninvited guests.

These Europeans are all people who know the goods. "Ah! Good dog, German black-backed wolf green, this is the best combat dog to train... Now, except for the Chinese breeds, there are no other places!"

"It seems that this is really the property of Master Long. It's amazing, amazing..."

Huo Yuanjia ran over and said loudly, "Several brothers, please report to the owner of the manor, and said that a group of high-ranking officials in the court have got off the train temporarily. I want to come to our place to stay..."

Deng Shichang smiled and said, "We are naval students who have just returned from Europa. Before leaving, we visited Naha and met the King of Far East... But we didn't have the blessing to talk to the prince. I heard that this is the prince's villa, so we are not polite to bother!"

When the guard heard that this was an official, he had also been to Naha and met the King of Far East. He did not dare to neglect his expression and was much more polite. He patted Lang Qing's head, and the well-trained wolfdog stopped barking.

"Several officials invite you to come in, let's report to the owner of the house... There are still several Chinese distinguished guests now, and the wine and food are ready-made..."

A guard ran back quickly, and the rest accompanied the guests to the main hall. After a while, they saw the black painted door, which was squeaking and opening.

"Hahaha... I said that today the magpies were yelling and the lights burst out, and it turned out that there were distinguished guests coming to the door!"

The door opened, and a middle-aged man wearing a royal blue lake silk gown walked out, clasped his fists and said, "Xiao Xianglang is the clan of the King of Far East. He has no great ability to help the prince manage some idle things..."

"I have heard a telegram from the Chinese people that the elites who studied abroad in the Qing Dynasty are coming back. I thought I was not lucky and had no chance to meet you... It's a coincidence that the Bodhisattva sent the distinguished guests!"

"Oh... this one?" Xiang Lang saw Gordon in the crowd like that. Before anyone could introduce him, he slapped his forehead. "Oh! I'm so clumsy, isn't this Lord Gordon? The deputy commander-in-chief of Xishan Camp!"

"Today, there are so many distinguished guests. Come quickly... Please come in the main entrance!"

The Xiang family is indeed from a turtle and a gangster. It seems that the brother of the Long family has met many people in the Xiang family village back then. He has a sense of enthusiasm and loyalty, and has a great eye.

The Xiang family's status as a nobleman can naturally remove a lot of Chinese intelligence. Even if the powerful and nobles in the capital have not met each one, they have to see the photos.

If you read it once, you must remember it in your heart and not forget it. No matter how high martial arts are, it is useless. What you need is human nature and worldly ways!

Gordon was stunned, "Does the owner actually know me?"

"Hahaha... I know each other, I have seen photos of the Lord in the newspaper, and during the wedding ceremony of Long Live, the villain was also lucky to escort the King of Far East to the palace..."

"Haha... I took a look from a distance. The Lord is good-looking. I will remember it when I meet him! Please invite him quickly..."

A group of people stepped into the farm, and when they entered, they found that the manor could not be divided into old and old. Huo Yuanjia said it was newly built, but when people looked at the ancient books inside, they all hugged each other. Is this an old tree that is not two or three hundred years old?

How could there be such an ancient tree in a new house?

Xiang Lang saw everyone's doubts and laughed and said, "The prince said, we, the heroes of martial arts, can do it for thousands of years... and do everything well!"

"These ancient books were moved from the old forest of Baishan, the foreign minister of the pass. They were transported by special boats and special gardeners with soil!"

"Have you seen this green cypress? An old gardener has met you...it will take three hundred years!"

Hiss... Several large guards took a breath and said in their hearts that this is going to rebel. Changbai Mountain is the place where the dragon rises in the Qing Dynasty. How dare this family steal ancient trees from the land where the dragon rises?

Still three hundred years? This kind of ancient tree is used for royal purposes and can only be planted in the palace. How dare he move it to his house?

It's reversed, it's really reversed!

But they just cursed in their hearts. Even if the Far East King really rebelled, would Emperor Tongzhi dare to lead the army in person?

I'd better swallow this tone!

The group passed by the second gate, and as soon as they entered the compound, they heard shouts of practicing martial arts inside. They looked closely and saw that the two heroes were fighting each other, either fighting against each other or dismantling a few simple moves back and forth.

"Several adults, let me recommend it... These are all senior officials in the Chinese army. What a coincidence today!"

"This is the deputy brigade commander of the Independent Brigade of the First Army of the Chinese Army, Jiang Lie! This is the battalion commander Ma Hui..."

"These two are amazing, major-level Chinese special operations snipers, Pang Chaoyun, Ye Qiu..."

The four of them were all senior officials of the Chinese military. They originally didn't like these Qing Dynasty officials and were too lazy to pay attention to them, but after looking at the clothes of these people, they all stood up.

"Are these naval students who just returned from Europa? If I have a good memory, you are Deng Shichang, you are Yan Fu..."

The Chinese military officers who are above the top are still respectful to the naval talents who study abroad. When they see that they are not the corrupt scholars in the court, they all put down their airs and started chatting.

Finally, seeing Gordon present, Jiang Lie turned his head and said to the two people in the venue, "Let's just be here today, don't practice anymore... Let's talk again!"
Chapter completed!
