The mage in the late Qing Dynasty
Chapter 1095 It’s worth the long journey
In The Hague, Jane Simscock told the House of Lords: "The return of customs sovereignty depends on a word from the princess."
Everyone was curious: "What did you say?"
"How many days? Has it been a month?"
"That's it?"
…
Zhao Chuanxin decided to cool down his relationship with Wilhelmina for a while.
Let each other calm down, and of course the most important thing is to let her calm down, because Zhao Chuanxin has always been very calm...
While discussing the details with Jacob Capellan and the overseas Chinese in Indonesia, and during the signing of the agreement, Zhao Chuanxin ran to Hong Kong Island every day. He was familiar with this sea route, and it took six hours to go back and forth.
"Dad." Zhao Songzhen showed three teeth and called out.
Zhao Chuanxin was too curious about her appearance.
It turns out that the feeling of having a child of your own is really different from being jealous of other people's children.
Gulizal had read the newspaper and knew about Zhao Chuanxin and the Queen.
Her classmates from the girls' school would also point fingers at her.
But she doesn't care.
She Ah Nang doesn’t care either.
Gulizar danced a Sainai dance for Zhao Chuanxin heartlessly.
Turning left and right, tirelessly, endless twists and turns.
…
But after the agreement was signed and Zhao Chuanxin returned to Lubin Mansion, Rebecca Levi's face didn't look very good.
She felt a little inferior and asked Zhao Chuanxin: "Is the Queen different from us common women?"
"Don't be stupid." Zhao Chuanxin looked at her affectionately and intently.
Rebecca Levi was overjoyed.
He still cares about me.
But Zhao Chuanxin said again: "Don't be silly, the Queen is nothing special except for her fairy aura, her body shining like a gemstone, her perfect circle, not a single flaw, her gentleness and ability."
"..." Rebecca Levi's face collapsed. "I knew it."
"You know Liupai!" Zhao Chuanxin said: "She is not as tall as you, not as fair as you, and does not have your endless physical strength and desire. Her position as queen and the power she can possess may not be as high as yours. Big Accountant.”
"Really?" Rebecca Levi's eyes lit up.
"But the house she lives in is Nuldenberg, the boss."
"Ah? It's true." Rebecca Levi began to feel inferior again.
"But so what? She has always yearned for civilian life, and the place she dislikes the most is Fort Noordenburg."
"That's it." Rebecca Levi's eyes sparkled.
"But she lives a life that only a noble can have. She is very particular about food, clothing, housing and transportation, and lives strictly according to royal etiquette."
"Huh? I just said..."
"But so what? Royal etiquette is very cumbersome and there are too many restrictions. She is not as happy as you."
Rebecca Levi finally understood that Zhao Chuanxin was making fun of her.
She immediately sat on Zhao Chuanxin: "I told you to tease me..."
Zhao Chuanxin stayed in Lubin Mansion for two days before returning to Lugang Town.
When she returned home, Miao Cuihua was not at home.
"Smash! Dad is back."
"Dad, dad, dad..."
Zhao Zheng was playing with the wooden cart with his chin in his mouth, and turned around and bared his teeth at his father.
Ganfan was lying on the side reading a book, raised his head and shouted: "Woof woof woof..."
It is saying: "Did you know that a dog's lifespan is only about ten years, and those who are unlucky will die after seven or eight years. Theoretically speaking, I have now entered middle-aged and old age, and the end is not far away."
Zhao Chuanxin picked up Zhao Zhengze and said to Qianfan: "Then you don't know something. As long as you use the right medicine, theoretically speaking, I can shorten your ten years of life... to five years, or three years."
"..."
"Zhr..."
Zhao Zhengze struggled to the ground and continued playing with his toy car.
"Dad, look."
He pressed the wooden cart with his hand and slid it hard on the ground, turning left and right, leaving traces all over the floor.
"Er, are you trying to show dad how a car can drive on a flat road?"
Zhao Zhengze pressed the car and bumped into Zhao Chuanxin's knee, dubbing: "Bang..."
Gan Fan rolled his eyes: "The period of stupidity of human beings is much longer than that of dogs."
That's not what happened.
Dogs can herd in two years.
He still lay on the ground for two years to create a "car accident" scene.
Zhao Chuanxin got carried away when he saw that Zhao Zhengze could play alone.
He couldn't help feeling that when he was still young, he released all his essence at once.
This seriously resulted in an uneven distribution of the essence. Only Zhao Lingjun was gifted, and the other children were nothing special in any way.
In fact, he still doesn't understand the child.
Under normal circumstances, children aged three and under often wake up multiple times during the night.
This sleep quality is extremely low.
But Zhao Chuanxin's four children would not even open their eyes once they fell asleep.
Other children have some headaches and brain fever, which leads to crying.
His child's crying was definitely not due to physical reasons.
Each one of them is as strong as a calf and almost immune to all diseases.
Zhao Chuanxin looked out the window and said, "Er, let's put on our clothes and go for a walk."
Zhao Zhengze was reluctant, but he didn't resist when his father put a cotton-padded jacket on him.
Thick and round like a ball, put on a neckless cotton-padded jacket.
Put it on like a bucket and put on the cotton pants without two legs.
Put on a tiger head hat that is two circles larger than your head.
Zhao Chuanxin just understood. No wonder his son was unwilling to go out.
Gan Fan stood up, shook his body and said, "I read the newspaper. Many times, even if you avenge your compatriots, your own people will still say you are cruel. What is the right thing to do?"
"Have you ever read Nietzsche?"
"See it."
"Nietzsche said - overcome this era in yourself. I have experienced many eras, and I need to overcome many more."
Dog Face was puzzled.
Zhao Zhengze struggled: "Dad, I want to go to the field."
Zhao Chuanxin put him on the ground. He fumbled with his short legs. The heavy cotton pants made his butt look bulging.
It looked a bit like a Corgi with a sawed-off body.
"What a sin." Zhao Chuanxin sighed. "Dad will make you a set of light and warm clothes later. When people ask about it when you go out, just say it's cold-resistant."
As he spoke, Zhao Zhengze fell to the ground.
He looked back at Zhao Chuanxin first, then cried with a pursed mouth.
Ganfan said: "I don't believe he was hurt by the fall, do you believe it?"
As he spoke, he came forward, grabbed Zhao Zhengze's lapel and shook his head.
Zhao Zhengze, stand at attention.
Zhao Zhengze stopped crying immediately, looked at Ganfan in surprise, went up to hug Ganfan's neck and rubbed his face affectionately.
Zhao Chuanxin sneered: "I don't believe it either."
The three of them continued to walk.
Wait, Zhao Chuanxin thought: Why do I feel that way about the three of them?
Zhao Chuanxin remembered what Ganfan said about life span.
He still has many days left, but how many days like this can he have?
Walking like this is not efficient.
Not long after walking, Zhao Chuanxin met Miao Cuihua who had returned.
Zhao Zhengze immediately ran over and held his mother's hand: "Mom, let's go home."
Okay.
We just walked out of the door.
Zhao Chuanxin smiled the whole time and was very patient.
When they reached the door of the house, Miao Cuihua spoke: "Second brother, why are you nervous?"
"Big brother, I'm not nervous."
"Don't worry, second brother, I never felt that I had you, I just thought it was my turn."
Zhao Chuanxin: "..."
He thought: This kind of woman really deserves to have me.
In a word, Old Zhao not only made a set of Flame Demon underwear for his son, but also made one for Miao Cuihua.
From then on, there was no more chilly spring.
On the day when the dragon raised its head, Hu Dunfu raised funds for Zhao Chuanxin.
He sent a telegram to Zhao Chuanxin, claiming that Mr. Zhao did not accept the position of Minister of Education, and he must know that education is difficult due to internal and external troubles, or it may be difficult to move forward. Hu wanted to establish Datong College in Shanghai, but encountered a number of problems with insufficient funds...
Zhao Chuanxin smiled after reading the telegram, and sent 10,000 yen from the Kuiteshalan silver vault and remitted it from the Lubinfu Bank to Shanghai.
Borrowing the hands of the little devils' bank, I offer the country's education as a big Buddha.
Hu Dunfu, who was in Shanghai, was shocked after receiving the money - I am afraid that Mr. Zhao can really come if there is something!
He said to the teachers and students: "Although the newly appointed Minister of Education Cai Yuanpei and Deputy Minister Fan Yuanlian are capable and virtuous, I think if Zhao Chuanxin becomes the Minister of Education, there will be no shortage of education funds."
He specially contacted familiar newspapers to publish this matter to make Zhao Chuanxin famous.
He also had selfish motives, thinking that other rich people might be willing to donate generously after seeing this. The power of example is infinite.
Zhao Chuanxin's faith power is growing and can never be used up.
…
In a blink of an eye, it was April 10th.
The Titanic set off from Southampton Port for its maiden voyage.
Before this, the coal workers at Southampton Port went on strike, which caused the Titanic's coaling work to be frustrated.
But the White Star Line was anxious to make its maiden voyage, so they plundered coal from the coal bunkers of other ships of the company.
They were so anxious that they seemed to be rushing to reincarnate.
On April 5, Thomas Insurance Company in New York sent a telegram to the builder of Titanic, asking him if he wanted to insure the ship. It only cost 500,000 pounds.
Thomas W. Lawson was scolded and gave up.
On April 10, when Titanic was about to set sail, it was almost hit by the docked New York.
It was delayed for another hour.
The second-class cabins of Titanic were decorated and sized the same as the first-class cabins of other ships.
The coal workers went on strike, and Titanic needed a lot of coal, so they plundered other ships, causing the first-class passengers of other ships to be transferred to Titanic, and other ships could not sail without coal.
Come on, let's get together.
Titanic finally set sail.
On the deck, Alfred Vanderbilt said to J.P. Morgan: "Sir, you know, I didn't plan to board the ship before it sailed. But when I thought about the insurance I bought from Zhao Chuanxin, I thought I should board the ship. Otherwise, I would waste the insurance money."
Obviously, he was making fun of Zhao Chuanxin.
He didn't need this little money.
American rich people often do this.
They couldn't destroy Zhao Chuanxin physically, and sometimes they could only satisfy their desire to talk.
Alfred Vanderbilt, the railroad tycoon, had a grudge against Zhao Chuanxin.
Because Zhao Chuanxin had cheated most of the American railroad companies on Wall Street.
J.P. Morgan laughed: "That's a coincidence. I was having a good time in France. Since I heard that Zhao Chuanxin sold insurance, I bought insurance and boarded the ship, just to see his joke."
The two looked at each other and laughed happily.
J.P. Morgan was actually one of the investors of the Titanic.
The ship prepared a top-class luxury cabin for him.
…
Zhao Chuanxin had never experienced such a long drive.
More than 21,000 kilometers, all on the sea.
Starting from the Yellow Sea, to the Philippine Sea, the Gulf of Thailand, the Bay of Bengal, and all the way to the Gulf of Aden.
The endless red rock walls on the African coast of the Red Sea made him feel novel.
On the steep rock walls, the Egyptians were also curious as they watched the black objects rushing on the sea.
At the southern tip of Italy in the Mediterranean, Zhao Chuanxin saw the smoking Vesuvius volcano.
He waited for half an hour, but the magma did not erupt.
"Well, let's wait until this time next year to come back and see."
Zhao Chuanxin continued on his way.
The reason why he went through so much trouble to hurry was that every time he opened the energy fluctuation convergence rune fragment, he could only teleport to the place before opening it when he went to Quetzalan and came back.
This time, he might have to carry a lot of things.
There is a small island at the northern end of Morocco.
There are only more than ten people on the island.
There is a lighthouse on the island with Spanish inscriptions on it.
Zhao Chuanxin landed here, rested, defecated and urinated, drank water, ate, and smoked.
The islanders asked him in Spanish: "Where are you from? Is that your boat? What's your name?"
Zhao Chuanxin set up the stove, half-closed his eyes, and shook his hand holding the cigarette: "Hmm, hmm."
"He doesn't understand Spanish."
"This fool."
"He's alone, let's rob his boat..."
They were referring to the third generation of Youlong.
The speed of the third generation of Youlong made them salivate.
Although they didn't know what it was, they felt it was powerful.
Zhao Chuanxin blew a smoke ring and cursed: "Rob my boat? I can beat the shit out of you!"
Several people retreated in shock.
"You can speak Spanish, why do you pretend not to understand?"
Zhao Chuanxin cursed while slapping garlic: "Damn it, if I don't pretend to be deaf and dumb, how can I know that you have evil intentions?"
"We have guns!"
Zhao Chuanxin raised his hand, and there was a Mosin-Nagant revolver in his hand, tracing the edges of the feet of several people.
Bang bang bang...
Several people jumped in fear.
Then they found that they were unscathed.
"What about now? Do you still think you're awesome?"
Then the men were completely honest.
Zhao Chuanxin asked them about the situation on the island.
Several people told Zhao Chuanxin that the island belonged to Andalusia and was occupied by Spain in the 16th century and named Alboran Island.
Only seabirds like to come here to poop.
An old lady with big eyes and deep eye sockets, it can be seen that she was also a beauty in the past.
She saw Zhao Chuanxin drinking tequila, so she took out a ham and said, "I want to exchange with you."
Zhao Chuanxin exchanged with her without saying a word.
After dinner, Zhao Chuanxin said goodbye to the poor residents on the island and rode the third generation of Youlong into the North Atlantic.
He ran to the vicinity of Southampton in one breath, waiting for the Titanic to go out to sea.
At night, he boarded the ship wearing a shadow cloak.
This is indeed the largest and most luxurious cruise ship to date, and it is powerful.
There are 10 decks alone, named from A to H.
Zhao Chuanxin blended into the darkness and jumped onto the lifeboat deck first. There were living quarters for the captain and crew, a gym, and a transparent dome smoking room at the stern.
In addition, there were the ship's chimneys and other things.
Zhao Chuanxin walked around roughly, mainly checking the layout of the lifeboat discharge.
Then he went down to Deck A.
The grand staircase was very impressive, with thick carpets on it.
Below were interspersed first-class cabins. Smoking room, Palm Tree Restaurant.
Zhao Chuanxin had been on many cruise ships, but the Titanic convinced him.
The first-class suite on Deck B not only had a living room, but also two bedrooms with separate toilets and a bathroom.
One of the rooms was occupied by someone, who turned out to be an old acquaintance, J.P. Morgan.
The other was empty.
Zhao Chuanxin made up his mind that this room belonged to him.
In these cabins, there were five pianos, Steinway B, R, K, and M pianos specially customized for the Titanic.
This thing is quite expensive, and Zhao Chuanxin is not going to let it go.
In addition to the restaurant, there is actually a cafe.
There is a reading room on C deck.
There is a drying room, a swimming pool, and a Turkish bath on F deck, which is really fun.
The food cold storage on G deck has a huge storage capacity. Zhao Chuanxin smiled knowingly: This can't be wasted.
This ship can't be sailed for a few days, he can't waste time.
Start with H deck.
H deck is the bottom deck, and most of the space is used as a warehouse.
The warehouse naturally cannot be opened and closed frequently. Whether it is mail or cargo, it basically has to wait until you get off the ship before you can take it away.
Zhao Chuanxin went to the garage first.
There are expensive cars stored here.
For example, Renault CB coupe.
Fortunately, the car body is small at this time, he loaded one and teleported back to Quetzalan.
The Titanic's speed reached 20 knots at this time, which is roughly equivalent to 37 kilometers per hour.
After Zhao Chuanxin teleported back, he left the car in the open space outside the white house and waited for one minute to return.
As expected, the ship had already left the original place.
He opened the rune passage and used the anti-force rune to float in the air, watching the Titanic flash past the white rice.
He went down to the bottom again.
He carried things tirelessly.
He emptied the garage first, then went to other warehouses, picking out valuable things to carry.
There were boxes of small-denomination banknotes, wine, famous paintings including those of Merry Joseph, 76 boxes of dragon blood resin, many musical instruments, various classical books, antiques, tanned leather bags with jewelry, small boxes for gold pocket watches, perfumes...
The goods inside were varied.
But they were very valuable.
Zhao Chuanxin: "It's worth it for Zhao to come all the way here."
