8 Where there is Charlie is home

With the Russo-Japanese naval war in full swing, Russia was in a disadvantageous position in the war situation.

Gavrila wisely chose to go overland.

At that time, the domestic railways were not yet developed, and there were always transfers and stops along the way, but when this group of foreigners went south to Shanghai, Gavrila, who was holding the official letter of Tsarist Russia, got much more convenience within the Qing court than on the vast sea.

Therefore, the families of the White Russians did not suffer much from the upheaval and displacement.

And this guy may be out of the mentality of inviting merit, he actually sent a telegram to Shanghai after arriving in China and entering Jiangsu.

Seeing their state, and seeing the appearance of those brothers with tears in their eyes when hugging their families, Han Huaiyi had to admit that this bastard still had some ability.

"I owe you a huge favor, Gavrilla!"

"Your Excellency Charlie, I must thank you in advance for your accurate judgment of the direction of the Russo-Japanese War, which helped him." Gavrilla, who had grown a beard, said vaguely that he was now trusted by that person.

Then the goods squeezed their eyes at Han Huaiyi: "I told him that the goods were robbed by the Japanese, and he said forget it." ”

Han Huaiyi noticed that Xie Miao was going to talk to him, so he interrupted his invitation first and said, "Have a good time in Shanghai and spend happily!" As for the other good news you have brought, I will be married soon! ”

"Really? Okay, you get busy first. "Gavrila was still very discerning after the surprise.

Semyon took the opportunity to come over, and Semyon brought a woman with a somewhat yellow face but actually a very good temperament, and he said, "Boss." This is my wife, Lisa. That's my mother-in-law and my baby. ”

"Your Excellency Charlie." The chestnut-haired woman owes a lot of money.

She actually performed a court ceremony, and Han Huaiyi noticed that the old woman behind her was holding a child, and she also made the same movements as her.

Seeing the dusty temperament of the silver-haired old woman, Han Huaiyi immediately asked Xie Miao unceremoniously: "Your wife must have been kidnapped by you, it is impossible for such a beautiful woman with a good background to marry a bandit according to common sense." ”

Semyon was embarrassed: "Boss, that's not how it is... ”

Lisa chuckled.

At this time, more White Russians and their families came here.

Han Huaiyi hurriedly raised his hand to stop their thanksgiving in advance, and he complained: "You bastards, hurry up and take your wives and children back, don't bother me!" I still have to prepare dinner for you, I owe it to you. ”

In the midst of laughter, Lisa looked at her husband with hot eyes: "I finally know why you said in your letter that the place where there is Charlie is home." ”

Because she felt the unpretentious affection between Charlie and her husband and those fellow citizens.

"yes." Semyon hugged his wife tightly, and at this time he noticed that Eva, who had no family, was somewhat declining.

Han Huaiyi also noticed it, and he suddenly shouted: "Everyone! ”

Click-rub, thousands of White Russians immediately stood upright.

"Tonight is not only a party to celebrate your reunion with your family, but also Eva's blind date, everyone knows that this guy has at least 50,000 silver dollars in deposit now, so don't let him go, send your vacant girl, and squeeze everything out of him!"

"Yes, boss!"

"Whoever marries Eva, I will personally reward her with another 10,000 taels of silver! That's it! Disband! ”

In the earth-shattering cheers, Eva followed Han Huaiyi in a panic and wailed: "Boss, you can't do this. ”

"What are you afraid of?" It's the first time Han Huaiyi has seen him like this.

Eva said with a bitter face, "Those are going to kill me." ”

"Then I'll give you a cement tombstone in the shape of a wine bottle, and it says that what lies here is for dry. Dead Eva. Han Huaiyi got in the car and left, thinking that this was really hypocritical.

When night falls.

In the playground of the security base, the White Russians, collectively known as the Cossacks, and their families formed a huge circle of bonfires, divided into several levels.

On top of those bonfires are sizzling cows and sheep roasted by skilled old mothers.

The men are holding wine bottles and the women are taking care of the children.

The single Belarusian girls sang and danced to the rhythm of the band in the center of the circle illuminated by lights and fires.

The warm and warm atmosphere moisturized their faces in this cold night.

Even the old ladies were humming songs about their hometowns along with the group.

You must know that in 1905, Tsarist Russia encountered the dilemma of the development of Europe and Asia, and the domestic contradictions became increasingly acute.

The civil strife of the Empire was exhausted, and the nobles continued to sing and dance, while the lower classes struggled to make a living.

But the White Russians suddenly went from hell to heaven and were able to be reunited with their families.

How can the change in personal destiny and the destiny of the family not make them excited and deeply happy?

The laughter of the Cossacks soon resounded on the beachhead, and attracted many onlookers.

Han Huaiyi, who had money in his pocket and drank some forced wine, waved his little hand very much.

He announced that those who came would not refuse, and tonight New Rome paid for the national party to stimulate domestic demand!

So the atmosphere of the scene became more cheerful.

Fei Voli, who participated in it, actually felt a sense of satisfaction when they looked at everything in front of them.

Because these are all caused by them from scratch.

The newcomers Ford and others also sighed at such a scene, which was a touch they had never experienced in their decades of life.

Everything was fine, but Eva, who had already begun to go crazy, suddenly shouted: "Brothers! ”

Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, he actually pulled out his gun and shot it three times at the sky.

Semyon was about to clean him up, and Eva shouted, "Do you remember what Lord Charlie said? ”

He shouted, "Strive for self-worth!" ”

He then shouted, "Take care of your family!" ”

He shouted again: "Help the good people as much as you can!" And then what's the next sentence? ”

"Speak up for the community!" A thunderous response rang out.

The next sentence is: "Strive for glory for the country and the nation!" ”

Everyone finally shouted together: "Whoever reverses these orders at will must not be trusted!" ”

Ford, who was beside Han Huaiyi, asked in shock: "Charlie, is this your life motto?" It's so incisive. ”

"It's all of us." Han Huaiyi said with a smile, and when they communicated, Eva shouted: "Then let me ask you, is Your Excellency Charlie such a person?" ”

"Yes!"

"He started New Rome, he took care of our families, he helped the poor, he protected the Chinese in the French Concession, he gave us glory! Cheers to Charlie! ”

The White Russians all stood up: "To Your Excellency Charles! ”

Han Huaiyi had to get up and salute back, but it caused more cheers, he tried to stop this sign of singing praises to himself, he wanted to bring the atmosphere back to the reunion of Belarus, but at this time Ivan shouted: "Let's get Charlie, drunk!" ”
