The boat crossed the Yangtze River and gradually approached Shanghai, and there was no turmoil along the way.

this day.

When this ferry from Yangzhou passed through the Jiangnan dock.

Gao Yuming couldn't help but stand on the deck and look across the bank.

The Birmingham had been freshly painted at the moment, with a red anti-corrosive paint three metres above the waterline, and striking black numbers painted on either side of the ship's side.

The ship's number is written "Rome" in Chinese and English.

Looking at the figure of the ironclad sea ship, Gao Yuming's eyes were a little moist.

Because he knew that this was a ship belonging to the Han family.

Suddenly, a voice exclaimed in his ear: "Faith and righteousness." Oh, it's amazing, Mr. Gao, is this the second young master's handwriting? ”

The person who spoke was none other than Zhou Kewen.

When Gao Yuming came out, he followed, and then followed the other party's line of sight to see the iron armor here, and then he also saw a slightly smaller line of font from the middle of the Roma ship.

3C

Xinyi and

Credit，Chivalry，Cooperation

He didn't recognize the foreign language, but he could see the letter and the three words immediately behind the two ships in Rome.

To say that Gao Yuming told him how Han Er was before, he was still a little skeptical, thinking that Gao Yuming was somewhat boastful.

When he saw that this majestic iron armor dozens of meters long actually had the name of Xinyihe on it, he believed everything!

Gao Yuming smiled at him proudly: "Yes, but I heard that the second young master and the French have made four other ships that have not arrived." ”

"There are five such ironclad fleets?" Zhou Kewen was dumbfounded.

I'm a damn, one ship is so big, five of them...

No wonder the Han family sold all the plank boats to the Shi family, how can they sell their ancestral business by doing this, they are obviously changing into dragon robes to become emperors!

"And what does Rome mean?" Zhou Kewen asked.

"The eldest young master of my family wrote to me, and the second young master said that Rome is the capital of a powerful foreign country, and this name is for outsiders. But Xinyihe is the real signboard of our old Han family. The second young master of my family said that one day, the name of Xinyihe will resound all over the world! ”

Zhou Kewen looked at the proud look on Gao Yuming's face, and then looked at the ironclad ship over there, and suddenly felt a sense of happiness.

This time, if he and Dong Weng listen to He Peiqi's words and meet such a Han family, wouldn't it be an old birthday star hanged and have a long life?

They didn't know that compared to the intuitively visible ironclad ship, Han Er's truly shocking container transportation mode had also been verified.

In the past few days, Wei Yungong has made twenty boxes.

Birmingham has also been completely renovated.

In addition to all the equipment in the cabin has been maintained, Wei Yungong even gave them the seafarers' rest area as if it was a new house.

Even the crew members who have been trained by Bortai and others have begun to formally conduct on-site inspections and operational drills.

They also put on the sailor uniforms specially customized for them by Han Huaiyi.

The uniform is a shirt and pants made of light denim of one color.

On the cuffs and neckline of the clothes and the hips of the pants, the black 3C logo is embroidered.

If it weren't for the braids on the heads of these crews, they would have been a group of Western sailors in terms of temperament.

The reason why Han Huaiyi didn't rush to ask them to shave their heads was because when Xiangshuai came in a few days, he had to do something to cover up on the big scene.

There is also good news in the past few days that representatives of the port of Marseille have left for Shanghai.

And the people in the bank will stare at this side more or less after lending, Han Huaiyi understands their psychology, and unabashedly takes the initiative to invite them to watch the situation.

It was also heartening to see the ship and the representatives of the bank who were capable sailors.

You must know that China's shipping industry was actually very weak at that time, and foreign ships came and went at sea. (Jiawu Jiawu!) ）

But everyone didn't understand what those big boxes were doing on the edge of the dock, and Han Huaiyi fooled the past with the reason that the dock was preparing for the rain for the new ship's equipment.

It was in the evening of the same day.

The Board of Directors of the French Concession held a meeting on matters relating to the New Rome Comptoir.

At the meeting, Melo reexplained the requirements and plans of New Rome to the directors with whom he had communicated privately.

The lobbying funds of 1,000 taels of silver were not spent in vain.

The 1,000 taels of administrative support promised by New Rome was not a waste of water.

In particular, the directors of the French Concession were French.

New Rome's request was quickly agreed.

But if this matter had been changed to the Public Concession, where Europeans, Americans, and Japanese were entangled in all sides, it would be strange that this matter could be passed smoothly.

Melo called the Han Mansion as soon as the meeting ended.

At this moment, Mamoyer, the "captains", and Jason were all gathered around the Han family's telephone, and even Wei Yungong was there.

"Congratulations, Charlie. New Rome's claim for land in the west was approved, and the property committee gave the property to the comptoirs at a price of 2 taels per acre. In addition, the concession authorities agreed to your request for free 30 acres of land in Shiliupu, and allowed you to build a new Roman pier there. ”

"The good news is that I have temporarily secured the construction of a connected road for the marina."

"Merlot, our partners are here, and we want to thank you in person." Han Huaiyi suppressed his excitement and said, Melo smiled silently: "I'll come right away." ”

That night, the garden of the Han Mansion was brightly lit, and they reveled all night, and even brought in the musicians of the ballroom to play the songs of the sailors' hometown.

Han Huaizhong, who is becoming more and more open, communicates with them in stammering English, because of Han Huaiyi's relationship, they call him "big brother", this word has a strong gang atmosphere, but everyone knows that the younger "Han" is the real big brother.

"Hey, hey, hey." Han Huaiyi drank this product, and he grabbed Merlot and served it on the table.

Driven by him, a group of foreign devils writhed with the music point.

Yu'er looked at the second young master's prodigal appearance and lay on Su Wujian's shoulder and smiled,

But about all this, He Peiqi shrank his head and didn't know anything about the outside world like the Qing court that closed himself off from the country, but he still thought that everything was under control.

It wasn't until the dusty Zhou Kewen caught He Hong in front of him that he knew what it meant to be confused.

But this guy couldn't have imagined that Zhou Kewen, who licked the dog with a heartfelt face, was actually cheating him.

"Han Er's guy is not a thing! Dodai-sama is wise! ”

"That guy is notorious in Yangzhou! The villain will talk to the adults, how not a thing this guy is in Yangzhou! ”

Zhou Kewen scolded Han Erlai very enjoyable, there are not many opportunities like this for him.

It is said that at that time, he was in Yangzhou with Dong Weng, although he confessed, how could he not be depressed?

So this guy is now venting and scolding Han Erlai in front of the platform, and it looks like he's really forcing it, because people really did it.
