Australian Storm 1876
Chapter 387: Guanyun Hengtong
Chapter 387 Official Transport Prosperity
Li Fushou left angrily, and came to the backyard of Mrs. Xiang’s residence, still angered, sitting on a chair as if strangers were not close.
He knew very well that it was a very correct decision to intervene in Africa.
This is definitely a big historic opportunity. If you miss this time, it will never happen again. It must be taken decisively.
From the original history
European countries flock to Africa to divide their spheres of influence. Small frictions and conflicts continue, but there are almost no major wars between each other, because all parties involved know that unless a world-class gold mine is discovered, it is not worth it.
The colonization of Africa pursues interests, not life and death.
Compared with European whites, the Queensland army is equipped with the most advanced magazine-style riding rifle in the world today. The bullets fired from the barrel can kill people. This alone can win the respect of European colonists.
The process of colonization of Africa by European countries is very smooth. The spears and swords of the foreign guns and guns facing the indigenous tribes of Africa are almost invincible and invincible.
The only exception is probably that the Kingdom of Italy sent troops to invade Ethiopia in 1895. The result was very dramatic. The spaghetti armed to the teeth was beaten all over by the black uncle, and he simply lost the war.
The German said harshly; “Italian came to Africa with a mouthful of tooth decay, but it happened to have a good appetite.”
Well, that is more than ten years later.
The East Indies War tempered the Queensland army. Li Fushou is now very confident and sure to get the African land he wants. After all, Somalia is just a few backward indigenous tribes. As for the conquest of the chaotic kingdom of Madagascar, it should be just a pleasant one. travel.
In the living room
"Master, who made you angry?" Sweet girl asked softly.
"A buzzing fly, don't worry about him."
Li Fushou seemed to wave his hands like driving away flies. Seeing the caring eyes of Sweet Niu'er and Xiang Niu'er's two wives, he felt that he had brought the troubled emotions back to the back house, which caused people's feelings to float.
So he calmed down the fluctuating mood and grudgingly said with a smile; “Not long after An’s birthday, there are always some unopened fortunate villains looking for opportunities to speculate in the camp. They also complained that I didn’t even notice that I was named by this person as a master of Chinese learning. I'm bluffing my head, that's it... Take a lesson and grow your wisdom, and stay away from these corrupt scholars in the future."
Tian Niu'er glanced at Xiang Niu'er silently. The two of them are standard little women in the house, and they have no interest in the master's government affairs. Their single mind is to serve the master. This is the most important thing in life.
"If you want to come to the master, everything has its own rules. We two ignorant women will not talk too much. Master and please sit down. Xiang Niu and I will go back and change clothes and come out. Although this French dress is uncomfortable to wear, it is really true. It's so beautiful!"
Tian Niu'er smiled and said a few words, stood up and pulled Xiang Niu'er and walked towards the back. Xiang Niu'er had a delicate and soft personality, and her face was red but there was no objection. She obediently went with Tian Niu'er. Back bedroom.
Seeing two charming young women walking away, Li Fushou felt much better for no reason.
More than an hour later
The sky was getting dark, and it was time to palm the lamp. The beating flames on the silver candlestick showed the luxurious furnishings of the room in detail, with the dim texture of oil painting.
Li Fushou is reading foreign newspapers and periodicals from Europe. This is a reading habit he has developed. Reading newspapers and magazines is also a good way to kill time.
After reading foreign language newspapers and periodicals for a while, he picked up the "World Journal" and read it, according to the latest report;
After the Qing Dynasty and North Korea signed the "Incheon Chinese Concession Regulations", the Fusang Kingdom also made the same request to North Korea and obtained the concession in Incheon.
Subsequently, Britain, France, Russia, Germany and other countries have obtained common concessions and commercial land of various countries, and established the Concession Ministry of Industry Bureau as the management agency.
The Qing Dynasty subsequently signed the "Articles of Busan Chinese Concession" and "Articles of Wonsan Chinese Concession" with North Korea, and obtained concessions in Busan and Wonsan. Merchants living in the Qing concession established the Incheon Gentry Association and Jining School in Incheon...

Li Fushou keenly saw the business opportunities, and he picked up a pen to record the matters to be explained tomorrow.
The opening of North Korea means that Queensland wool products and other specialty products can enter the North Korean market without obstacles. Normandy must be arranged to follow up quickly and send a trade commissioner to take charge of this matter.
Correspondingly, in the 19th century, the United Shipping Company wanted to increase its routes to Incheon and Busan, and Huitong Bank and Shangri-La Bank wanted to set up Incheon branches to provide financial support nearby.
Today, the population of the Kingdom of Korea is about 11 million, and the capital Seoul is about 235,000. This is a big market for Queensland industrial products, especially a small group of princes and ministers, and the consumption power of high-ranking officials is still very impressive.
Thinking Room
I heard the ringing of the dress ring in my ears, and people have not yet reached the fragrance.
Li Fushou looked up and couldn't help but his eyes brightened, and he secretly praised in his heart; a beautiful couple with lotus flowers.
I saw Xiang Niu'er and Sweet Niu'er wearing gorgeous French court dresses, all dressed in goose yellow, all dressed in elegant white, with long black hair piled up on the temples, and decorated with gorgeous hats decorated with flowers, which has a charming charm. .
The two young women are both young and beautiful. The French court dress outlines the beautiful body curve, narrowing from the plump chest to the waist, and then fluffy at the skirting position, layer after layer of lace skirts appear Luxuriously unusual.
The neckline of women's dresses is opened very wide, revealing a large area of dazzling white greasy, deep gullies, and the expensive diamond necklaces have become the focus of attention.
Facing Li Fushou’s aggressive eyes, the sweet girl has a proud chest, and her heart is very sweet. She can be loved by the master, even if this French palace dress is too uncomfortable for her to bear.
Compared to Sweet Niu's outgoing personality, Xiang Niu'er is more shy and introverted. Her pretty face is already covered with red clouds, and some guilty conscience covers Ruyu's little hand on her chest.
"Hahaha...If you get a wife like this, what can your husband ask for?"
Li Fushou threw away the newspaper in his hand and stood up. He laughed and walked forward with one hand in his arms, looking at the two beautiful flowers in his arms, his heart was extremely happy.
Lying on the knees of a drunk beauty, awakening the power of the world.
Since ancient times, it’s better to be a hero and hero. Li Fushou felt complacent at this time and set foot on the pinnacle of his life.
"Master, do you like it?"
"Like...Of course I like it. My Xiangniu and Sweet Niu are getting more and more beautiful. Master, I can't help it!"
"If the lord likes it, I also have a royal blue dress. I will wear it to the lord later."
"Wait for what to do... go and wear it now."
"Ah... now?" Xiang Niu'er looked a little confused, but she nodded meekly and said; "Then please wait for a while, I will change my clothes now."
"What are you waiting for... let's go together."
"what……"
Xiang Niu'er was a little dazed, raised her **** eyes that flickered and looked at the master, not knowing what to do for a while.
This flowery beauty is like a delicious cherry, plump and juicy. Li Fushou is hot when he sees it. He can't help but put his arms around the pretty person in his arms and walks to the back bedroom, which is different from Xiang Niu's ignorance, always cheerful. The sweet girl seems to understand something, her pretty face is blushing...
Qinglong City, Dalongfeng Restaurant
In the elegantly decorated box, several young officers are in a banquet while pushing cups and changing cups, and the atmosphere is lively and harmonious.
At the beginning, Major Lei Xiaopeng sat in the main seat and Major Li Shuanzhu in the guest seat. On both sides were Captain Lei Xiaohu and Captain Duan Qirui, respectively, sitting side by side with two guards officers, one of them was Lieutenant Li Yong. One is Lieutenant Mo Zhenxiong, both of whom are young officers who entered the Guards at the same time as Li Shuanzhu, and are also classmates of the Young Eagle School who graduated in the same class.
The guards officers next to the Lord Earl are divided into 4 shifts and three operations. They are close to guard 24 hours a day. These two are young officers of Lei Xiaohu’s team. They are on shifts in the evening and tomorrow, so they can drink freely.
Seriously speaking, all the young officers here are from the guards and are very familiar with each other.
Lei Xiaopeng initially served in the Guards. Later, when he formed the Shangri-La garrison division, he went straight to serve as a deputy battalion commander. He was not as perverted as Li Shuanzhu. After three years, he was promoted to deputy commander by accumulating his work, which is quite satisfactory.
It's just that when Lei Xiaopeng left, Li Shuanzhu was still polishing in the officer training camp, so the two did not know each other. Because of the instructor Lei Xiaohu, this was the first time sitting together drinking.
Five flavors of food, three rounds of wine
"Brother Xiaopeng, I respect you for this cup. You have participated in the advanced studies of the Huangpu Military Academy, and you have also obtained double excellent results. What is the secret to tell your brothers?" Li Shuanzhu toasted with both hands, with a very sincere attitude.
He knows that the major Lei Xiaopeng in front of him has already participated in the rotation training and has obtained excellent results. The military and political examinations are both excellent. This is a very good result.
"Haha..." Lei Xiaopeng picked up his glass and drank it all, pouring the strong liquor into his belly, acting very boldly.
This is the way soldiers drink. They hate being tired and crooked. Of course, they drink boldly and get drunk quickly.
He lit the bottom of the cup, and took a deep look at Li Shuanzhu and said, "Brother Shuanzhu, to be honest...The Whampoa Military Academy has tight time for advanced studies, a lot of tasks, and a lot of homework. It's hard to get it without a lot of hard work. To the excellent grades, take military subjects as an example. There are military history, military geography, military deployment, military confrontation, sand table deduction, combat science, logistics and civil mobilization and other subjects. Each subject must be honored and handed in a copy. Only high-quality military essays can be evaluated for military excellence. The instructors are very strict and there is no trickery to go."
"Ah...dead, dead!" Li Shuanzhu and Duan Qirui screamed in unison, their faces were bitter.
The look of the two of them, in the eyes of Lieutenant Li Yong and Lieutenant Mo Zhenxiong, is both enviable and cheerful, mixed with an inexplicable taste.
Everyone was originally classmates. They went to Australia in the same year and entered the Guards, but in three years, Li Shuanzhu had rocketed up, carrying a major silver star on his shoulders, not far away from the second silver star.
On the other hand, there are only two copper peas. If it weren't for the large-scale expansion of the Guards last year, it might still be a copper peas on the shoulder.
The news about them as guard officers is not blocked. The Lord Earl handed over the Longmen Guard Area to Li Shuanzhu to command the regiment-level guard area with the rank of deputy regiment. It couldn't be more obvious.
The throne of the head of the regiment is waiting for him, which shows that Rong Chong is extremely envious of others.
This kid is very lucky. Not only did he succeed in battle, but he also discovered the Koi copper-gold mine first. Such a great feat was at least prosperous all the way before the Brigadier General. There would be no setbacks.
