Wandering Knight Start: I have a simple data panel
Chapter 472 Ah! Free air.
There are a group of special guests on the Daxia warship.
The Lionheart Kingdom is very willing to invest, perhaps because of the huge profits from the steam industry, everyone is too active this time.
They even pay for overseas study without blinking an eye.
The number is expanding again and again, and the boast made by Earl Jeffreys before was unfortunately broken.
If it weren't for the worry that there were too many people to fool, the number of students studying abroad could have doubled.
Of course, there are only a few who are lucky enough to get on the Imperial battleship.
Only nobles with status are allowed to take the Imperial battleship to Daxia.
Others can only take the supply ship and squeeze in the narrow cargo hold.
After all, these ships were not designed to transport a large number of passengers.
Fortunately, there are enough ships, and any ship can fit a few people.
So it was bumpy all the way, passing through the New World colony of the Lionheart Kingdom, bypassing the Jewel Port, and stopping at the Silver Port for several days. The ship was maintained and resupplied before it was back on the road.
For all the guests of the Lionheart Kingdom, this is a very magical journey.
Especially crossing the New World and truly setting foot in the distant Daxia Empire.
Except for a small number of nobles, a large number of scholars have been exposed to technical information from Daxia for many years.
They have never been exposed to steam industry, and then they are amazed.
The roaring machinery has become a popular major in the Lionheart Kingdom in a short time.
A large number of scholars have devoted themselves to it and completed the transformation.
And culture can be spread through text books.
Technical information is all in Daxia characters. You want to learn Daxia language, right?
Facing advanced knowledge, you can't help but feel awe in your heart, right?
After a while, Daxia's status in the academic world of the Lionheart Kingdom has risen.
Jos and Germain are typical scholars of the Mucha faction.
They get money and status because of Daxia technology, and because they master Daxia culture and monopolize technology, they will naturally respect Daxia.
Putting aside the instinct of biological admiration for the strong, just the benefits are enough to make them change their attitude.
With the news he got from the sailors, Joss became more and more excited these two days.
"Jermain, I just went out to ask, we are about to reach the White Sand Islands, and we will soon reach the mainland of Daxia."
When Germain heard this, he also turned over from the narrow boat and took a deep breath with an exaggerated look on his face: "Ah! No wonder I feel that the air is fresh, this is the smell of the free air of Daxia!"
Joss also took a big breath of air, and then the stench hit him in the face, causing him to curse: "Damn Germain, the first thing I will do when I get ashore is to wash your stinky feet."
"Hehe, Mr. Joss, don't care about these details, think about it, we will arrive in Daxia soon, I must go to Hadley University to pay homage and see the world's academic center."
Germain's face was sincere. Many technical materials of the Lionheart Kingdom have the mark of Hadley University, and some professors are from this university.
All kinds of advanced technologies and fantastic ideas are simply amazing to scholars of the Lionheart Kingdom who have never been exposed to them.
So he really came here with the intention of worshipping, and he must go to Hadley University to study hard.
The same is true for Jos. When he thought that he was about to see the Great Xia Empire that he had been thinking about day and night, he couldn't help but get excited.
Just as the two were fantasizing, there was a sudden cheer from outside.
"White Sand Islands, White Sand Islands."
Hearing someone shouting outside in poor Great Xia language, Germain jumped up from the bed and quickly opened the door.
"Quick, Jos, let's go to the deck to have a look."
Jos followed him cursing.
When they reached the deck, many passengers from the Lionheart Kingdom had already run up.
In the distance, the outline of the island could be vaguely seen.
Without the introduction of the sailors, they only heard the cheers of their companions, and they also knew that they had arrived.
"Ah!!! The breath of freedom, Great Xia."
The sailors looked at these old men from the Lionheart Kingdom shouting and looked at them strangely.
What breath of freedom, sweet air, why don't we feel it.
The excited Jos and Germain soon felt the real freedom.
White Sand Port!! !
A row of dried corpses floated in the wind, and the wet and salty smell brought by the sea breeze made them look like huge salted fish.
The guests of the Lionheart Kingdom no longer shouted about freedom.
Soon, they learned the origin of the corpses through the tax officer who boarded the ship.
"Are these bastards trying to evade taxes? They dare to embezzle your majesty's money.
Freedom, of course my Great Xia Empire is free, the freest. As long as you don't evade taxes, you are absolutely free." The tax officer looked sincere. If anyone said that Great Xia was not free, he would be the first to disagree.
Germain and Jos suddenly realized that this was the case.
It seems that it is not unfreedom, but these mummies are to blame for their own mistakes.
Immediately, they kept the tax evasion in mind and warned themselves not to commit it again.
After arriving at Digen Port, after exchanging customs documents and obtaining documents proving their identity, these scholars from the Lionheart Kingdom truly set foot on the land of the Great Xia Empire.
Jos's eyes were filled with tears. Just as he was about to say a few words, he saw a toolman being hung up and his master was beating him hard.
"Haha, toolman, you are not a human being. Daxia is free. It's written in the book." Germain laughed dryly, as if to comfort himself.
Jos believed it.
Although there are some bad things, the good outweighs the bad, and the Great Xia Empire is still very developed.
Whether it is the mechanical hooks at the dock or the cars that can be seen occasionally, some of them are things they have never seen before.
They have not even seen them in books. The books they read about steam industry seem to be just a drop in the ocean.
Everyone thinks that it is right to come to Great Xia to see it in person.
Earl Jeffreys is quite reliable and took them all the way to the imperial capital, Plan City.
Then he handed them over to the foreign affairs department.
As self-funded overseas students, Jos and Germain were quickly thrown into Plan City.
Then... why are the prices so expensive?
The two scholars who are considered high-income in the Lionheart Kingdom were a little dumbfounded when they saw the prices in Plan City.
They were originally planning to buy a villa near Hadley University alone, but the price would make them bankrupt on the spot.
The real estate agent looked at this group of white-skinned guys and his face suddenly fell.
I thought it was a big order, after all, they all looked like people of status.
Who knew they were a bunch of poor people.
"This is Pulan City, not to mention in our Great Xia Empire, it is also the number one city in the world, and the prices are not comparable to any rural area.
If you can't afford a big villa, then I recommend you rent an apartment, where you can live even if you squeeze in." The agent still wants to make a deal.
Freedom? How can you be free without money?
