Looking at the quaint Hongxing Building sign, He Yuzhu, who was standing aside, was thinking secretly in his heart.

He had come here many times, but only to accompany his family to taste the delicious food.

The restaurant specializes in Shandong cuisine, but is most famous for its dumplings, which have a rich variety of fillings and are cooked in a broth hotpot style, giving them a unique flavor.

From He Yuzhu's clothes, the old shopkeeper recognized that this convoy was most likely the master's.

As for this "master"

He didn't have too many thoughts about who this person was.

The fact that he has a motorcade of this size and is accompanied by numerous security personnel, not to mention that even Young Master Duan is willing to serve as a foil for him, shows that the identity and status of such a prominent figure is obviously far beyond what Hongxing Building can bear!

With the warm greeting of the old shopkeeper, a group of people successfully entered this old-fashioned restaurant with rich historical heritage and cultural style.

Of course, a VIP like Mr. Duan could not dine with ordinary diners in the lobby on the first floor. He was led directly to a special private room on the second floor, which was reserved specifically for Mr. Duan all year round.

Even if Mr. Duan himself had not arrived, this box would always be kept empty for him.

In fact, not only this private room will be reserved, but also the shark fins, yellow croaker and sea cucumbers needed for Mr. Duan’s favorite dishes such as chicken-filled shark fins, pot-fried yellow croaker, and scallion-fried sea cucumber are prepared in advance every day.

According to the shopkeeper's wishes, these were specially prepared for Mr. Duan. Even if he did not come to enjoy them, these ingredients were already ready.

If Mr. Duan really didn't show up, the ingredients would not be sold to others, but would be processed directly, but this "processing"

The authenticity of the dish is somewhat questionable - even if it is not sold outside, he can still eat it himself.

He Yuzhu would not be so foolish as to tell the truth about this matter, but would let Mr. Duan decide the menu on his own.

The ingredients of the dishes during this period were truly impeccable, especially the seafood, which would be considered a rare delicacy in later times.

In the goblin world, He Yuzhu has already cultivated a large number of them. The rich and diverse magical elements there make the quality of seafood in the sea, land creatures and birds in the sky better than those in other worlds.

Not only the Goblin World, but also his portable miniature world is the same. Even the food grown here is of better quality.

But He Yuzhu had no intention of selling his high-quality food. He was not short of money. Since he could buy ordinary items with money, why should he waste his best stock?

When Mr. Duan's favorite dish was served, a small jar of lotus root white wine was also served.

This is neither a vegetable nor a medicinal herb, but a kind of wine.

Lotus Liquor is one of the top tonic wines in Beijing, with a long history, soft nature and pleasant aroma.

It is said that since the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, Empress Xiaoqin often ordered eunuchs to collect lotus flowers to make fine wine, which was called "Lotus Liquor".

, to be given to close ministers for enjoyment.

He Yuzhu is not unfamiliar with this wine.

It had a very high reputation in ancient China, and was even said to be the imperial wine conferred by Emperor Gaozu of Han, Liu Bang.

As a tribute in all dynasties, it was particularly popular during the Jin and Yuan Dynasties, because Yuan Haowen, a literary giant, writer, historian and magistrate of Xixia County at that time, loved Lotus Liquor all his life.

The Lotus Liquor served in Hongxinglou is of course of extraordinary high quality. After tasting it, He Yuzhu was full of praise for it.

But he also knew that if all the raw materials were replaced with those brewed in his own world, the quality and health-promoting effects of the finished wine would definitely be improved.

His goal of entering the dungeon this time was to pass the level and win the prize, and by the way, to collect information on traditional winemaking, recipes, prescriptions, etc. that were about to be lost, which was also a significant achievement.

During the meal, Master Duan did not forget to test He Yuzhu's background.

In fact, we can get a glimpse of many tricks from the three cars arranged by the He family.

You know, even the heads of state nowadays can hardly have such a luxurious scene, let alone the current Yuan Datou.

However, He Yuzhu also pointed out that the real rise of their He family was not in Europe and the United States, but in the Australian continent.

That’s right, that place is the Kangaroo Country, Australia, which was later known to the world.

He Yuzhu knew that his background would inevitably lead to an investigation, so he did not say too much. He only mentioned that Britain did not end the transportation of criminals to Australia until 1868, a full 1788 years after the first convicts arrived in Australia in 80.

During this period, as many as 16 criminals arrived in Australia.

He also mentioned that by 1901, six colonies, including New South Wales, Tasmania, Victoria, South Australia, Western Australia and Queensland, had decided to merge into a unified country.

Under the federal constitution, they became an indivisible federation with the consent of the Queen of Great Britain and Ireland, with the Governor appointed by Britain.

Despite the Union, many people still saw themselves as British living abroad.

These Australians are loyal to the Queen and are proud to be part of the British Empire. Some even call Australia "another England" far away from home.

.

After hearing this, Master Duan assured that he had no selfish motives in asking this question and that he was just asking out of curiosity.

"Brother He, your story is refreshing to me."

However, since Australia now belongs to the United Kingdom, does that mean the Ho family is also under their control? "

Under...British jurisdiction?"

He Yuzhu smiled meaningfully and said, "My brother, there are some things I cannot tell you directly, but in that place, no one can restrain me."

He continued, “If we just blindly expand our territory without enough manpower, then development will become difficult.

Those English people are of no consequence, I have not taken any credit from them.

In fact, I must be honest, one of the purposes of my return to China is to plan to have enough people migrate to my hometown.”

His words were not nonsense, He Yuzhu was indeed considering moving the people away.

Not only is it to ensure that the small world has enough natural people to reproduce, the biotech world and the goblin world also require natural population migration.

The goals of the transfer are twofold: on the one hand to build one's own territory, and on the other hand to explore experimental possibilities through these transnational movements.

For example, in the Goblin world, how will they become adventurers and can they acquire extraordinary abilities? In the Resident Evil world, will they adapt to the mutations caused by contact with Tiberium crystals, and can such changes be manipulated and improved using Umbrella's high technology?

In addition, there are other uses. Collecting population is indeed one of his purposes of traveling through time and space into the Republic of China copy.

Of course, he has a bottom line in his mind. Extremely dangerous experiments will be carried out by criminals or hopeless people, such as intruders.

After the meal, the relationship between He Yuzhu and Master Duan became even closer.

After finishing the post-meal cleanup, Master Duan asked for a game of Go.

Since Brother He is confident in his chess skills, let's play a game together."

Master Duan suggested.

He Yuzhu understood that Duan Shao's favorite thing was playing chess, and he often caused his father Duan Lao Hu to suffer heavy defeats.

"Learn from each other and improve each other,"

He responded rather modestly.

However, Duan Shao was defeated in three consecutive games and surrendered before the middle game.

Just kidding, even if He Yuzhu's current brain cannot be called a supercomputer, it is a piece of cake for him to play a simple board game.

What's more, he has accumulated a large amount of Go game data and occasionally develops Go skills spontaneously, which makes it impossible for Master Duan to win even if he is very strong.

"No way, Brother He, you only know a little bit about chess?" Young Master Duan showed an incredulous look on his face.

If anyone else encountered such a ruthless defeat in chess, no matter how well-educated they were, they would inevitably feel a little frustrated.

When meeting someone with a milder temper, I will at most be patient, but I will silently bear a grudge in my heart.

But Young Master Duan is not of this kind of character, otherwise, when he plays chess with his biological father, he would not always make his father so upset.

“It’s just a little bit of dabbling.

"He Yuzhu smiled and nodded," Compared with the real masters, my chess skills are insignificant.

"

This is not modesty. He has simply improved his Go skills to a proficient level, and combined with the powerful computing power of artificial intelligence, he won so easily.

Compared with real chess masters, he is indeed inferior.

"If that's the case, then I haven't even entered the door yet?" Young Master Duan frowned in distress.

"Haha..." He Yuzhu laughed heartily, "It's just a trivial skill, no need to worry about it.

"

"This is just a minor skill. In Brother He's eyes, what is a high level?" Young Master Duan asked quickly.

“Naturally, it is to protect the homeland, stabilize the country, and even expand the territory.

"He Yuzhu responded cleverly. He knew that the other party was trying to find out about his family background, so he smiled and said, "With our He family's background in Australia, wouldn't it be comfortable to be a local emperor in a closed-door and introverted state?"

"Little local emperor?" Master Duan asked immediately, "Brother He, how big is your family?"

“It’s not big, about 100,000 square kilometers.

"He Yuzhu smiled and waved his finger to change the subject," Regarding the previous real estate matters, I have to ask Brother Duan for help.

"

"I understand, and I know you don't care much about these material things.

So, I prepared another small gift.

"After that, He Yuzhu signaled, and Tifa came over quietly and whispered a few words in his ear.

“Okay, Master.

"

Soon, Tifa brought two boxes. They were not very big, about the same size as a 12-inch tablet computer in later generations.

She handed them to their owner respectfully.

"Give.

"He Yuzhu took the small box, put it on the table, opened one of them at random, turned to Master Duan, and said softly, "It's just a little gift from me. I hope you like it."

"

Young Master Duan looked at the items in the box, his eyes sparkling.

Sure, maybe that was an over-description, but he was certainly curious about what was in the box.

“This is the semi-automatic rifle developed and produced by our Ho family, the M92F.

"He Yuzhu explained with a smile," Because it was officially manufactured in 1912, it is also called He1912.

These are high-end custom styles.

"

"Obviously, this gun... is really exquisite!" Young Master Duan couldn't help but take out the gun and played with it carefully. His concentration was no less than touching the signature red prostitute in the top red-light district.
