Zhang Asi is a coolie at the Huangpu River Wharf, helping people move goods every day. Sometimes if you are lucky, you can also help the boat passengers carry a salute and earn two more money.

What Zhang Asi remembers most is that he helped a foreigner carry luggage and obtained a piece of foreign money in black and green. He who knew the number knew that it was a single word. However, the foreign money was taken away by Chen Lao San, who was in charge, and then gave him a piece of the ocean, saying it was for him to change it. Someone who knows how to say he lost, but Zhang Asi just shook his head and smiled. He is not stupid. If the unexpected money is taken up by himself, someone must be jealous and do some tricks.

And Mr. Chen, the manager, would help himself in the work of the dock. Even if you don't help him, you can at least reduce other people's jealous disease. Working at the dock is isolated but it won't last long.

However, when Zhang Asi was working today, he found that the wharf was unusual. Not only were police officers standing densely in black and holding short sticks, but also a large group of people in neat clothes and holding colorful flags standing on both sides as if waiting. what. The sharp-eyed Zhang Asi could still see a group of decently-dressed foreigners with blond hair and blue eyes waiting here. There must be an important person coming. Zhang Asi thought in his heart that a person called Mr. Sun to come last year, and he didn't see such a big battle. I don't know who came this time.

Among the group of well-dressed foreigners that Zhang Asi saw, there were also a few Chinese mixed in, and two of them even stood at the front of the team and were talking to each other.

"Brother Shaochuan, now I envy you. Staying in Shanghai is clean and clean, smiling at the ups and downs of the wind and clouds. Where is it like me staying in this hot location, I am not pleased with all the anger, sometimes I really want to leave."

"Brother Yanyi, you can't say that. I don't want to be seen by Feng Huanzhang, so I can only come to Shanghai to take a leisurely time. At present, the country is difficult, you can't choose a son, otherwise the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is so big that few can do things ."

"It's really hard to deal with national affairs."

One of the two speaking was Yan Yi, Foreign Minister of the Beiyang Government, from Wuxing, Zhejiang. One is Gu Weijun's character Shaochuan. A native of Jiading County, Jiangsu Province. Both of them stood here this time to greet the Romanian King Edel, who is about to arrive in Shanghai for a visit.

Of course, this work should be Foreign Minister Shen Ruilin's business, but whoever asked Gu Weijun to live in Shanghai after leaving his post was arrested by Minister Shen. Behind them are the ministers of various countries in Shanghai. As for the two of them standing in the forefront, it is also because this reception is mainly two people.

When the huge cruise ship docked and put down the trestle bridge, Edel, full of thoughts, looked at the hometown of his previous life with complicated eyes. The two words of hometown contained endless thoughts and nostalgia.

When Edel walked down the trestle step by step, the person in charge of the meeting, Shen Ruilin, Minister Shen immediately stepped forward amidst the cheering greets.

"Welcome King Edel and his party to Shanghai."

"Thank you Minister Shen."

Edel said this sentence in Chinese, but he said it a little hopelessly. And this also surprised Shen Ruilin a little bit speechless, did not expect the Romanian king to actually speak Chinese, although it sounds unsatisfactory. Fortunately, he responded quickly and immediately praised. "His Majesty the King speaks Chinese really well."

Minister Shen's compliment only caused Edel to shake his head for a while. Only he himself knew what was said, but it was useless for a long time.

Shen Ruilin, who couldn't figure out why the Romanian king shook his head, could only continue to lead the way. There is no way that foreigners have been uncles in this land since the Qing Dynasty, even the Republic of China has not changed in the slightest. And the Romanian king in front of him even made Minister Shen Ruilin and Shen only take care of him, for fear that this would lead to diplomatic disputes.

Hey, national affairs are difficult.

Seeing the cautiousness of Minister Shen leading the way, Edel suddenly felt a deep feeling. He wanted to tell the Minister in front of him that you are too careful not to be careful. In the future, the land of China will surely rise, which will make everyone admire and make the Western world tremble. It's just that he is now the monarch of Romania, and he can't do anything about the current status of this land, so he can only continue to follow Minister Shen with a little complexity in his heart.

Edel's abnormal condition attracted the attention of his wife, Queen Mary, as Mary asked in a low voice that she was concerned about it. "Edel, what's the matter with you. Is it uncomfortable?"

Faced with his wife's concern, Edel smiled and replied. "It's nothing, I'm fine, maybe it's a bit tired after a long boat ride."

After speaking, he recovered his mood and followed Minister Shen to move forward. Now is not the time to cherish the memory of his former life.

"This is the French ambassador to China, Mr. Made."

Because of the peculiarities of the French Embassy in China, the French ambassador, Mr. Ma De, became the only ambassador to Shanghai. Other countries are basically ambassadors in Beijing and counselors in Shanghai. This is why Minister Shen first introduced him.

"Hello, Mr. Made. Nice to meet you."

"I am also very happy to meet His Majesty the King."

"This is Consul Lehmann..."

"Hello there……"

"..."

As Minister Shen Ruilin introduced Egypt one by one, Del freely greeted each country's envoys in Shanghai. No way. At present, the envoys of various countries in China are basically the ones whose foreign ministries are not very valued, let alone consulates.

Edel's lack of attention to these ambassadors and consuls does not mean that they do not attach much importance to Edel. These guys in Shanghai are respectful and respectful in front of him, which makes many welcoming people feel addicted to them.

After introducing the envoys of various countries~lightnovelpub.net~, the next step is the local celebrities in Shanghai.

"These two are brothers Rong Zongjing and Rong Desheng, and their flour gauze occupies nearly half of our country."

This is for the ancestors of the Rong family of later generations. If you say that the name Edel may not know who it is, you can add the phrase that flour gauze occupies half of the country, and the Rong family will not be able to run away.

"Hello, two Mr. Rong."

"Hello, Your Majesty."

"This is Zhang Jian, a model of our country's outstanding officials turning into entrepreneurial educators."

Minister Shen Ruilin didn't know how to explain that the champion could only be replaced by outstanding officials, and then introduced his achievements.

"Hello, Mr. Zhang. In my opinion, your country needs people like Mr. Zhang. What your country lacks most is education and industry, which can help the country's development and hope for the future."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for complimenting me."

At this time, Zhang Jian, who had been exhausted by the Dasheng Textile Factory, could only answer with a brazen face. There is no way that Dasheng is now in high debt, and the huge amount of borrowing makes him breathless. However, the fundraising in Shanghai this time was not very smooth, and being invited to greet Edel was also a result of being unsympathetic. The capital development of the Republic of China was so difficult. There were various government apportionments inside, and the competition of capital from various countries outside. The fragile capital of the Republic of China could only develop in its difficulties.

Edel knows this too, but he can't save anyone.

Then Minister Shen quickly introduced other influential people in Shanghai, because he saw the fatigue in Edel's eyes.

After being greeted by the dock, Edel and his party took a car to rest, and even refused the welcome banquet that day on the grounds that they were exhausted. He is not physically exhausted, but exhausted from looking at the personnel in Shanghai.
