Chapter 96 Go to Europe
"Your Majesty is going to Europe?" The two old ministers, Li Xiucheng, the Zhongwang and Yang Fuqing, were shocked when they heard He Xuan's decision.
"Europe is tens of thousands of miles away. How far is it to go like this?" Li Xiucheng said.
"I don't know what kind of scenery Europe is, what strange things will happen there?" Yang Fuqing also shook his head: "Your Majesty, please consider it carefully before talking about going to Europe."
Li Xiucheng and Yang Fuqing are actually both outstanding people of the world.
Especially when King Zhong Li Xiucheng, when he was not as good as Zeng Guofan in his hands, he defeated Zeng Guofan several times, and was about to force Zeng Guofan to commit suicide. He was indeed an outstanding figure in the top few in the Taiping Army.
However, no matter how outstanding they are, they are also people of this era.
Chinese people in this era basically know how to speak English.
Basically, I feel that Europe is too far away, and it is far away to the horizon.
Going there is simply terrible!
In history, before the Qing Dynasty was destroyed, it organized a public-funded international student, with a total of thirty indicators. Normally, after learning, it will definitely be important.
However, when the Qing court saw this indicator, they were like avoiding snakes and scorpions, and they refused to go to the United States if they were beaten to death.
For them, going to the West is simply no difference.
They don’t understand the West at all, and they are even more inexplicably afraid.
Even a famous man like King Zhong Li Xiucheng is completely unaware of the West and feels inexplicably afraid of the West.
"The Western countries are actually just like that. Don't worry. The strongest weapon in the West is now helpless. The others are useless." He Xuan shook his head and said.
King Zhong Li Xiucheng and Yang Fuqing thought about it and it seemed that this was indeed the case, so they no longer stopped it.
"How many people will your Majesty bring?"
"It's not necessary to bring people." He Xuan shook his head: "It's too troublesome to bring more people. It's too difficult to transport thousands or tens of thousands of people to Western countries. It's too difficult to go to Western countries. There's no use for fewer people. I'm alone."
Li Xiucheng and Yang Fuqing were helpless when they saw He Xuan not taking care of him alone.
"But that doesn't you need a few people to serve?"
"No need, when I was hunted by the Qing army, I walked on Wuyi Mountain with Dong Xiaomiao for a long time and it was fine. The survival ability in the wild was at full level."
...
Seven days later, He Xuan took a boat to India.
In this era, there was no ship yet, and China went directly to the Western countries. We needed to go to India first and then to India to go to Europe.
The voyage begins!
This is a very long journey, and it will take months.
During the voyage, I saw the sea water every day, which was also boring!
He Xuan complained like this and finally arrived in India while taking a boat.
India is still a British colony, very backward. It is even worse than China under the Qing Dynasty. However, because this is a British colony, there will be a ship returning to Britain every once in a while.
Dani.
He Xuan bought tickets for this ship.
It's time to board the boat.
He Xuan walked onto the boat with a sword on his back and carrying a small box. There was some gold and silver in the small box, and he didn't bring much else. Anyway, gold and silver are the hard currency of this world.
Most of the people who boarded the boat here are white Westerners, and there are also a very small number of Indians. Judging from the clothes of these Indians, they are dressed in gorgeous clothes. They should be rich Indians. They look like they look when they boarded the boat, and they will never dare to go to the lineup with Westerners.
After getting on the boat, I found the room I booked.
There are several types of rooms on this Dany, and the prices are very different.
For example, first-class rooms are the most expensive, but on the deck, you can smell the freshest air here. The light is also excellent.
The price difference for second-class rooms is quite different, and it is below the deck. The air and light are naturally worse than second-class rooms.
The third-class room is at the bottom of the cabin. The light there is extremely poor, the air is quite poor, it smells dirty and unpleasant. The price is naturally the cheapest.
He Xuan is not short of money at hand, so he booked a first-class room.
When I entered the room, I found that the room was also very simple, about ten square meters, with a bed, a cabinet, and a small desk. That's it. In this era, the best room on the boat was like this.
He Xuan lay on the bed and rested for a while. After waking up, he looked at the time. It was past three o'clock in the afternoon. It was not until dinner. It was not the same thing that he had been stuck in the room. He Xuan planned to go to the deck and take a walk.
On the deck, some chairs are provided.
The white people, either sitting or lying down, chatting with each other in English, and talking about something.
However, when he saw He Xuan, all the white people present were extremely shocked, as if they had seen something incredible.
A white man shouted: "When can yellow people get on board at this time? What did you do?"
He yelled angrily.
Immediately, an Indian man wearing a large pair of clothes ran over. When he saw He Xuan standing on the deck, his face changed and he quickly approached He Xuan. He first quarreled a lot in Indian language.
But unfortunately, He Xuan didn't understand half of the sentence. Although his mental power was five, it was much easier to learn language than other people. However, learning English is almost the same. After all, it is a world-wide language.
There is no interest in learning Indian language. India itself is a rather divided country. They have dozens of languages, but none of them have recognized Indian language. What a nonsense.
Here, I have to tell a joke. In the 21st century, there was not an Indian movie star named Amir Khan, which was also quite popular in China. However, there were not so many people watching Amir Khan's movies in India?
Why? He is still the hottest star in India.
The reason is actually one. The language in India is not unified.
Only a part of India can understand Aamir Khan's movies, while others cannot understand them directly due to language reasons.
Gossiping back, the Indian man had a lot of knowledge, but He Xuan still looked like he couldn't understand. He immediately switched to English: "Are you not an Indian?"
He Xuan's mouth twitched: "Do you think I look like an Indian? I am from the Dali Dynasty. The Dali Dynasty is China."
