Romanian Eagle

The 503rd chapter travels to the far east (2)

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 to carry the salute to earn more money.

What Zhang Asi remembered most was helping a foreigner to carry his luggage and getting a black and green foreign currency. He knew the number and knew it was a word. However, the foreign money was taken away by Chen Laosan, who was in charge, and then gave him a piece of ocean, saying that it was exchanged for him. Some knowledgeable people said that he was at a loss, but Zhang Asi just shook his head and smiled. He's not stupid. If he took the unexpected money by himself, someone would definitely be jealous and do some underhanded tactics.

And the steward Chen Lao San points out to help himself at the dock. Even if you don't help him, you can at least reduce other people's redness. Being isolated while doing things at the dock won't last long.

However, when Zhang Asi went to work today, he found that the pier was unusual. Not only were police officers in black clothes and white backgrounds holding short sticks, but also a large group of neatly dressed people holding colorful flags standing on both sides as if waiting. what. The sharp-eyed Zhang Asi could see a group of decently dressed blond foreigners also waiting here. There must be a big man coming. Zhang Asi thought to himself that a man called Mr. Sun came last year. He had never seen such a big battle, so he didn't know who came this time.

Among the well-dressed foreigners that Zhang Asi saw, there were also several Chinese people in the mix, and two people even stood at the front of the line and were talking to each other.

"Brother Shaochuan, I only envy you now. Staying in Shanghai is so clean, watching the ups and downs with a smile. It's not like I stay in this hot position, I'm not flattered by being angry, sometimes I really want to walk away."

"Brother Yan Yi, you can't say that. I'm not welcome by Feng Huanzhang, so I can only come to Shanghai to relax. You can't pick the blame when the country is going through a difficult time, otherwise, there are really few people who can do things in such a big foreign ministry. ."

"This is really a difficult state affairs."

One of the two people who spoke was Shen Ruilin, Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Beiyang Government, who was born in Wuxing, Zhejiang. One is Gu Weijun's character Shaochuan. Jiading County, Jiangsu Province. This time, both of them are standing here to welcome the Romanian King Eder who is about to arrive in Shanghai for a visit.

Of course, this job should be the matter of Foreign Minister Shen Ruilin, but whoever asked Gu Weijun to live in Shanghai after resignation was arrested by Minister Shen. Behind them are the ministers from various countries in Shanghai. As for the two standing at the front, it is mainly because of the two people who greeted them this time.

When the huge cruise ship docked to the shore and put down the trestle, Eder, who was full of thoughts, looked at the hometown of the past life with complex eyes. The short word of hometown contains endless longing and nostalgia.

When Adel walked down the trestle step by step, the person in charge of this meeting, Shen Ruilin, immediately stepped forward in a cheering welcome.

"Welcome King Eder and his party to Shanghai."

"Thank you, Minister Shen."

Edel said this sentence in Chinese, but it was a little stumbling. And this made Shen Ruilin speechless. He didn't expect that the Romanian king could speak Chinese, even though it sounded unpleasant. Fortunately, he responded quickly, and immediately praised him. "His Majesty the King speaks Chinese very well."

Minister Shen's compliment only caused Edel to shake his head for a while. Only he himself knew what he was saying, but it was too long to be unfamiliar.

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. In front of the Romanian king, Minister Shen Ruilin could only serve carefully, for fear of causing diplomatic disputes.

Hey, the country is tough.

Looking at the careful guidance of Minister Shen, Edel suddenly had a deep feeling. He wanted to tell the Minister Shen in front of him that you were too cautious. In the future, China will surely rise up, which will make everyone admire and make the Western world tremble. It's just that now his identity is the monarch of Romania, and he can't do anything about the current status of this land.

Therefore, he could only continue to follow Minister Shen with a somewhat complicated heart.

Edel's abnormality attracted the attention of his wife, Queen Mary, and Mary, who was close to her, asked in a low voice. "Edel, what's the matter with you. Are you not feeling well?"

Facing his wife's concern, Edel smiled and replied. "It's nothing, I'm fine, maybe I'm a little tired after sitting on the boat for a long time."

After speaking, he regained his mood and followed Minister Shen forward. Now is not the time to cherish the mood of his past life and homeland.

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

Due to the peculiar reasons of the French Embassy in China, Mr. Ma De, the French ambassador, became the only permanent ambassador in Shanghai. In other countries, the ambassadors are basically in Beijing and the counselors are in Shanghai, which is why Minister Shen introduced him first.

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

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

"This is Consul Lehmann..."

"Hello……"

"..."

As Minister Shen Ruilin introduced Ai one by one, Del greeted the envoys of various countries in Shanghai casually. There is no way. At present, the diplomatic envoys of various countries in China are basically the guys whose foreign ministries do not take very seriously, let alone consuls.

Eder's disregard for these ambassadors and consuls doesn't mean that they don't take Eder seriously enough. These guys who call the wind and call the rain in Shanghai are respectful in front of him, which makes many people who greet him enjoy it.

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

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

This is for the ancestors of the Rong family in later generations. If you say the name Edel, you 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 escape.

"Hello, Mr. Rong."

"Hello, Your Majesty the King."

"This is Zhang Jian, a model of my country's outstanding officials turned entrepreneur educators."

Minister Shen Ruilin didn't know how to explain the champion, he could only replace it with an excellent official, 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, His Majesty the King, for complimenting me."

At this time, Zhang Jian, who had been exhausted by the Dasheng Textile Factory, could only answer with a strong face. There is no way that Dasheng is in debt now, and the huge amount of borrowing weighs him down. This time, the fundraising in Shanghai was not very smooth, and it was because of being invited to meet Edel that I couldn't forgive myself. How difficult is the development of capital in the Republic of China. There is apportionment from various governments inside, and there is competition for capital from various countries outside. The fragile capital of the Republic of China can only develop in its difficult development.

Edel knew this too, but he couldn't save anyone.

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

After being greeted at the pier, Edel and his party went to rest by car, and even refused the welcome banquet that day because of physical exhaustion. He was not physically tired, but was mentally tired looking at the personnel in Shanghai.
