[Comprehensive] I am not Michael

Since Zhao Changqing intends to develop well in the UK, socializing and socializing are naturally indispensable. In addition, Robert Crowley is a very reliable and decent old-fashioned gentleman. More importantly, the purpose of this invitation has been clearly named in the invitation letter. Therefore, After receiving the invitation letter, Zhao Changqing quickly responded.

When Zhao Changqing came to Downton Abbey, he immediately attracted the attention of many guests.Although many people believe that Zhao Changqing is from Wright, those who have never met Zhao Changqing can't imagine what a Wright looks like.They only know that the Wrights have long hair and loose clothes, and they can only rely on imagination.

Today, Zhao Changqing is wearing formal attire for the banquet, with a navy blue cloak on the outside, a Guanyin pocket on his head, and a sapphire blue cloak. Inside is a sky blue round-necked robe. It's white.Avalokitesvara's pocket reveals the ancient silver crown on his head. The ancient silver crown is inlaid with countless large and small sapphires and blue chalcedony, which complements the royal blue belt around his waist. The belt is also inlaid with sapphires and sapphires. Blue chalcedony, below the right side of the belt, a little lower than the knee, hangs a blue chalcedony jade pendant with hazelnut-sized blue diamonds on it. On his feet are a pair of powder-soled official boots, but his robe is wide, so he Along the way, at most, people can only see a little bit on the toe of the shoe.

In addition, the whole set of robes is made of silk with dark patterns, so it looks very low-key when standing still, but when people start to walk, or the wind blows, or the light changes, the surface of the clothes will also emerge. Exquisite patterns.

Mary had never imagined that luxurious body before, and of course, she had no way of imagining it without seeing it.

Just like Mary, those young nobles were stunned by this attire. Even the hostess of Downton Abbey, Mrs. Clara, couldn't help but see the exquisite blue diamonds on the jade pendant hanging below Zhao Changqing's knees. I gasped.

He couldn't help but glanced at his husband.

That's right, Mrs. Carat's dowry was quite a lot back then. Otherwise, it would have been impossible to save Downton Abbey, which was in financial crisis, and make Downton Abbey appear rejuvenated.But Mrs. Clara can guarantee that her dowry is nothing more than two such beautiful blue diamonds.

Mary was stunned for a while, and then said: "Oh, Mr. Zhao, this is the first time I see you dressed like this."

Zhao Changqing smiled and said: "This is the formal attire I wear when I go out to the banquet. I just arrived in England before, empty-handed and ragged, and luckily the family doesn't mind."

"So that's the case. If I had known it, I would introduce you to some famous old tailors in London."

"Your cousin Matthew once took me there. However, the British clothes are too slim to wear, as if they are tightly bound, which makes me very uncomfortable."

"So it is. Oh, sir, where's your horse? Won't you hunt foxes with us?"

In fact, the horses raised by the Rose Manor in the past had been sold by that Miss Rose Bucket, and after Zhao Changqing bought the Rose Manor, he did not buy any horses and left the stables empty.

"No, I don't have a horse."

"Father's stable has several fine horses. Why don't you try them?"

"Thank you for your kindness, but forget it, I'm not wearing riding clothes today."

Edith saw that Mary was talking and laughing happily with Zhao Changqing, and felt upset. Seeing this, she interjected, "Mr. Zhao, I heard that the stables in Rose Manor have been empty for almost a year. Haven't you bought any horses for yourself?"

Zhao Changqing smiled: "Because I don't need it."

The surroundings exclaimed: "Isn't it useful?"

Fox hunting is widely loved by England and even the British upper class. Therefore, there is no British aristocrat who does not ride or raise horses.To them, Zhao Changqing's saying that they don't need horses is nothing like the Arabian Nights.

Napier, the son of Viscount Branksome, couldn't help but asked: "Don't nobles go hunting in your hometown? Don't hunting activities be held in the royal palace?"

As for Pamke who came with him, he couldn't help exchanging looks with the people around him, as if to say that it's not surprising that the Wright Kingdom, which doesn't value force, was destroyed.

Zhao Changqing said: "Hunting is a simplified version of war. In the past, the royal family and nobles really liked hunting, and some even brought domesticated tigers and leopards to show off their strength. However, times have changed, and the mode of war has also changed. Naturally, spring hunting Qiudi’s political significance has also disappeared. Hunting and horseback riding are only related to personal hobbies rather than skills that must be mastered. Personally, I prefer reading to hunting. So, you don’t have to think about me, please enjoy Enjoy the fun of fox hunting."

For Zhao Changqing, the purpose of his neighbor Earl Grantham's invitation, he already knew from Matthew, and also knew that Callett Dawson who came with Matthew today was specially sent by their office to be in charge. Commercial lawyer for the final contract, and Mr. Murray on the side of Robert Crawley, Earl of Grantham.

Whether it is Zhao Changqing or Robert Crowley, for them, today's conversation means the raw material supply point of the future pharmaceutical company, and it also means a big gain for Downton Abbey. It is a business, and naturally it is more important than hunting. much.

As an aristocratic lady with outstanding riding skills and a passion for hunting, Mary could not accept Zhao Changqing's answer.

"You mean the horses will disappear from the field?" she pressed.

Zhao Changqing said: "Yes."

"Then what do people fight with?"

"Cars." Zhao Changqing raised the corners of his lips, and said meaningfully: "100 years ago, in the era of George III, did people ever think that one day, cars would drive us on the streets? It takes several horses to raise a good horse." What kind of bloodlines should be paid attention to in the time of generation. But cars, as long as there are factories. With the development of industry, the performance of cars will only get better and better. Of course, their role on the battlefield will also become more and more Big. Maybe, before long, the key to a war may be a big machine."

Mary said: "Did you forget that the Titanic just sank?"

As soon as this remark came out, the faces of several people around changed, even her father Robert Crowley's face became very ugly.

Zhao Changqing said: "Failure is the mother of success. This sentence, whether it is in medicine or in the development of science and technology, is the absolute truth."

Mary stared straight at Zhao Changqing, and asked after a long time, "Could it be, are those medical patents you applied for?"

Zhao Changqing said: "Yes. Those patents have been bought by my country with the lives of tens of billions of people over the past 5000 years."

5000 years!

Tens of billions of people!

At that moment, everyone present was speechless.

5000 years of history @This alone is enough for these British people, no, even the most knowledgeable scholars on the European continent may not be able to imagine how long the history of 5000 years is.Let alone tens of billions of people.

In the UK, a city with a population of [-] can already be called a big city, with tens of billions of people, which is simply unimaginable.

For a moment, Mary thought Zhao Changqing was lying.

Instead, it was Edith, who immediately said: "Since Mr. Zhao was able to buy Rose Manor within three months of coming to England, it is naturally because of the knowledge and patents accumulated in countless failures." Out of curiosity, he said to Zhao Changqing: "Mr. Zhao, I remember that you plan to set up a medical school to train doctors and nurses. Is this true?"

Zhao Changqing replied: "Yes. To be more precise, they are field doctors and field nurses."

Lawyer Ma Rui couldn't help but said, "Do you firmly believe that war will break out within two years?!"

"Yes." Zhao Changqing thought for a while, but still couldn't hold back, and said, "In fact, I suggest that those who have the conditions should prepare two silk underwear or silk shirts for their children who are about to go to the battlefield."

"why?"

Not to mention Mary, even the Earl of Grantham pricked up his ears.

"Silk underwear and silk shirts can effectively reduce the damage of arrows and bullets. In addition, I also recommend adding two pieces of cloth on both sides of the military cap and helmet as a cover, which can prevent mosquitoes from entering the ears and causing inflammation or even malaria. At the same time , It can also prevent the enemy from aiming at the temple to attack. If the two pieces of cloth are made of silk, it may even allow the bullet that was aimed directly at the temple to slip through the forehead."

When the men heard it, they immediately fell in love.

Especially Robert Crowley, Earl of Grantham, he immediately said: "Mr. Zhao, do you mind reporting this to the military department?"

"Of course I don't mind. However," Zhao Changqing said, "according to my estimation, the war in two years' time will be very harsh, so severe that the countries will lose a large number of young people and force your country to import labor from China. And I have no doubts about these laborers. They will be tricked into the battlefield in the end. If you can, please treat them well. Although they have forgotten the glory of their ancestors, I still remember them."

Robert Crowley naturally agreed.

The nobles, including Napier, also promised that if they really encountered Chinese laborers on the battlefield, they would try their best to be considerate.

In fact, at this time, most of the people present were skeptical of Zhao Changqing’s words, just like Sipper was attracted by human rights and feminism. These people would agree, but it was only because of their education and human rights ideas Influence.What's more, Zhao Changqing told them the way to reduce his damage on the battlefield completely free of charge, which made them embarrassed not to agree.
