1717 New American Empire

Babu received Xiaolin's instructions and went to the British colony with half a million pounds to purchase some ore raw materials and return to the town. As a companion and protection, fifty loyal white soldiers from the first battalion were transferred to follow him. Of course,

, these soldiers also had the intention of monitoring Babu. Xiao Lin did not tell anyone that these pounds were counterfeit banknotes made in the 21st century that could be mistaken for real ones. In the eyes of white people in this period, these five hundred thousand were still a huge wealth.

.

Babu has always been a sneaky person. If he ran away with the money, even though Xiao Lin would not suffer any loss, he would still be very disgusted. However, Xiao Lin was really overly worried. Babu now has no problem.

Heart. His wife, the daughter of the viscount, is pregnant.

He will usher in his first offspring in nearly thirty years of life. He doesn't want to abandon his wife and children. If he misses this time, he doesn't know if he will have any offspring. Moreover, Yanhuang Trading Company has shown great potential, and he plans to

He made up his mind to stay and serve under Xiao Lin.

Babu was also ambitious, and planned to rely on the merits of this operation to obtain the position of battalion commander. Before leaving, he knew that Xiao Lin would encircle and suppress all nearby Indian tribes next, and would definitely form more

He wanted to get a vacancy in the army. Barb thought about it carefully. They couldn't go to the surrounding British colonies. Although not every town has members of the Adams family, they are not afraid of ten thousand, just in case. If

If you are recognized by an acquaintance, the mission will have major twists and turns.

After thinking about it, Barb decided to take the people to New York City. New York has a short history. The earliest settlement was at the southern end of Manhattan Island, which was originally the residence of Indians. In 1626, the Dutch bought some 60 Dutch guilders (equivalent to

$24)

They bought Manhattan Island from the Indians and built it as a trading post, calling it "New Amsterdam". In 1664, the Duke of York, the younger brother of King Charles II of England, occupied this place and renamed it New York, or New York County. In 1686

New York is officially established as a city.

New York in 1718 was only established 32 years ago and was not the national metropolis of the 21st century. However, because water transportation is more convenient and land transportation is not difficult, a lot of materials are still transferred here. Therefore, it seems that

It's quite prosperous, with tens of thousands of people already living and settling here. It doesn't look much different from some smaller cities in Europe.

The reason why Babu came here was because a good friend he met among the Hessian mercenaries was stationed here with 300 troops. This man was named Logan, a strong and brave Germanic man. It is said that his ancestor was a viscount, and later

The family was in decline, and as a result, he couldn't even inherit the title of knight. Logan's family was pretty good, at least he could have enough to eat when he was a minor. Logan was not willing to be mediocre, and joined Babu together.

Hessian Mercenary Group.

The two were also destined to stay together from the time they were soldiers to the squadron leader. At first, Logan looked down on Babu a little, but later he was saved by Babu. After discovering Babu's strong will, the two began to work together.

Fighting. Among the group of people who joined the mercenary group, only two people, Babu and Logan, got out. Babu wanted to live a noble life and joined the Adams family, but Logan did not stop him, but he was still mercenary.

He led the 300 brigade of the Corps and was hired by the British to serve in the army.

Logan later contacted Babu through letters and jokingly asked Babu to help take care of him. However, before Babu took any action, he met Xiao Lin and was taken under his command. In total, it had been two or three months.

There is no correspondence with Logan. Barb believes that even if Logan finds out that he has betrayed Britain and the Adams family, he will not be hostile to him. Besides, this time he is here to send money.

He had only been to New York once five years ago, and he felt average at that time. Unexpectedly, he found that the environment in New York had become worse this time. Maybe it was because he had stayed in Yanhuang Town for a long time, and he was used to the cleanliness and tidiness there.

The streets and the smell-free air. As soon as I arrived in New York, I almost vomited out my breakfast due to the various feces and urine on the roads and the smell of sweat mixed with the stench of excrement in the air.

"Shit! Why does this place stink so much? It's even more disgusting than a public toilet. How do these people live here?"

Scott, the youngest soldier in the team, covered his nose and kept complaining, causing the New Yorkers around him to pay attention and salute him. Mike, the captain of the team, was well-informed and had a stable personality, so he quickly let him go.

He shut up.

"You kid, do you think that every town is the same as the town under the boss's rule? It's not like you haven't lived in those towns. They all dump garbage at will. There are no sanitation workers to clean it up, so of course it smells bad. Don't worry about it.

Saying this in front of others should not attract too many people's attention, as it will not be good for our actions."

"Boy, Mike is right, you can just keep these complaints to yourself and don't expose them to the public."

"Then Captain Babu, what should we do next?"

"In this way, we will find a hotel first, and then Scott and Mike will follow me to visit my old friend with gifts. Our next actions will be safer with his support. The others will take care of the carriage and belongings.

Wait for us to come back at the hotel and then arrange the next step."

"good!"

It is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality. After being accustomed to the modern life in Yanhuang Town, they suddenly returned to the unbearable environment before. Babu and the others did not like anything. They did not like anything.

The streets are full of feces and urine, and I don’t like people’s clothes and yellow teeth. If I accidentally get close and smell it, I will almost faint. Just for the mission, the clothes they put on are of high quality and

The neatness is also better than anyone they have encountered.

After searching for a long time, they couldn't find a satisfactory hotel. Dirty and messy hotels were the main style of these hotels. The beds and tables were all greasy and dusty to the touch. They really couldn't imagine how they could stay here. They couldn't imagine how they could stay here.

They didn't even think about it, before they met Xiao Lin, they couldn't afford to live in these places. In order to correct these people's unhygienic habits and sloppy clothes, Xiao Lin broke countless canes.

Now, they have to take a bath every day, wash before going to bed and after getting up. They go to the public toilet when going to the toilet, or use a toilet and then carry it to the public toilet for dumping. In front of every house, there is a trash can nailed with wood.

, there are larger public trash cans on each main road, and no one is littering everywhere. It is said that the construction of the underground pipeline system has begun, and in the future, every residential house will have its own bathroom.

At this time, the only difference between the people of Yanhuang Trading Company and the people of the 21st century was their knowledge. In the hotel, the call girls' eyes lit up when they saw these warriors who were more energetic than anyone else.

. Anyone who sees it can tell at a glance that these soldiers have money to pay back

Very capable. Babu does not restrict the movement of the soldiers. If necessary, he can find a woman to play with. However, the soldiers are not interested at all. Look at the clothes of these women, their yellow teeth, and the disgusting low-quality perfume.

Mixed with the smell of sweat, they'd rather go to the dog.

Babu smiled and said nothing. He was also very uncomfortable. When he saw the high-end leather shoes he bought for thirty yuan yellow coins stepping on those feces and urine, his heart was bleeding. But for the sake of the mission, he could only endure it and hurry up.

Just finish Xiao Lin's explanation and go home. Babu inquired about it and heard that Logan was now leading a patrol, so he went directly to the area where Logan was patrolling to find someone.

It didn't take much effort to find Logan. He didn't follow his men around, so he found a sunny place and made a hammock to lie down and rest. The three hundred mercenaries under Logan's command were the most powerful here.

The army, so even if Logan was passive and sabotaged, no one dared to care about him. Babu walked up to him and took off the hat that covered his face. The people around him looked like they were watching a good show, as if they were waiting for Babu to be beaten by the irritable Luo Gen.

Root was beaten violently.

"Damn it, who is so brave, how dare... Babu?"

Logan was angry at first, but when he saw the fat face in front of him, he turned off the fire, said something in a questioning tone, and then hugged Babu directly.

"Brother, why are you here? I haven't seen you for so long. I miss you so much."

"Okay, okay, Logan, I'm here specifically to see you this time."

"Okay, let's go find a tavern and I'll treat you. We haven't had lunch yet, so let's go together."

"Don't worry, I've brought you a lot of gifts. Let's go to your house, and I'll treat you to good food and drink, and I'll make sure you eat them all on your tongue."

"Okay! Let's walk."

The delicious food that Barb mentioned was the canned bread and liquor and beer from the 21st century. When we arrived at Logan’s house, it was a small house facing the street with good lighting. Logan has never been married and has no children.

, it’s still very uncomfortable to live alone.

Wrong. Babu took out ten butter sandwich breads from the bag, then opened two cans of fruit, and used the charcoal fire at his house to heat some of the cans of braised pork and braised fish. He also opened a few bottles of beer and a bottle of braised fish.

Ping Lao Baigan asked Luo Gen to start eating and drinking.

This was the first time for Logan to try these foods with various spices from the 21st century, and he almost ate them all on his tongue. The mountain city beer from the 21st century was much better than the beer from this period. After taking a sip,

Logan didn't stop and drank the entire 500ml bottle of beer.

"Ah, cool, brother, where did you get these good things? I love to eat them. They are so delicious."

"Don't worry, brother, eat slowly. I have plenty of these things."
