Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

Xiang Ying hadn't eaten a single piece of food since noon, all thanks to the intense heat of the fire. He had just set up a table for a banquet in the French Consular House, and because of the tense atmosphere, Xiang Ying didn't eat a single thing.

He had been starving, but the moment he received the apology declaration, he felt like he could eat a cow. On the sea, when he was riding the boat, Xiang Ying felt dizzy.

This was not seasickness, he was a dignified Zhiyuan Warship and it would be too shameful if he told others that he was seasick. He was very clear that he was hungry.

Even though the dishes on the table were cold, he could not care less. He took a sip of the wine and three mouthfuls of the dishes, gulping them down to his heart's content.

Bing Tai scratched his cheeks and asked anxiously, "What did you see? "Tell me, I've also been to the treasury, but I haven't found anything. It's just that the iron gate cabinet still has some cash, right?"

"Still eating! starved ghost reincarnated … "

After urging them for a few times, Xiang Ying finally ate his fill. He used his napkin to rub his mouth, then turned to the guard and said, "Get Kitchen to cook a pot of soup for me, I'm so hungry and cold, I want to warm my stomach …"

"What do you see? I see the list of shares in the Canal Company! "

When he said that, Xiao Letian's eyes immediately lit up: "You've remembered it all?"

"I've recorded more than 60% of the contents. I really can't see the rest clearly …"

As he said that, Xiang Ying handed the notebook in his pocket over to the leader. Xiao Letian was immediately stunned, he knew the string of words written on it very well.

"Somerset, Qiu Jier, Edward, Feng, Meng Ba, Windsor … "Howard, Charles, Canterbury …" One after another of names jumped out from Xiao Letian's mouth.

Wang Huaiyuan also had a complicated expression on his face, "So that's how it is, no wonder you did not allow us to attack Canal Company, this is simply a hornet's nest!"

Xiao Letian closed his notebook and handed it over to Wang Huaiyuan: "Leave your CIA files here... This time Xiang Ying has done well, I will remember you a great merit! "

Bing Tai was even more confused now, he stomped his feet in anger: "What's going on? What are you talking about, and what's the use of these words? "Tell me …"

Xiao Letian waved his hand and pressed him down: "Don't be in such a hurry, these words actually have no secrets. These are all the names of the ancient nobles in Europe!"

"Europeans have names similar to those of the Gusanagi. They value names, but not their surnames. Up till now, civilians in Gusanagi are not allowed to have surnames, and civilians in Europe can also have surnames, but they are not the most respected ones …"

"I've never done any research on this, but I've heard from my friends that the surnames of the Europeans are very casual. Some of the ancestors have changed their surnames, for example, Beck is a baker while Hunt is a hunter …"

"There are also those who take the name of Geography and Geography as their surname. For example, Mill is a mill while Green is grass and grass …" These are all commoners' surnames, and above these surnames is the surname of a noble! "

"For example, the Queen Victoria, her surname is Wen Sha. Of course, because of the inheritance rights in Europe, many monarchs have their own surnames, and one person will inherit many surnames. This is one way to fight for the inheritance rights …"

"Oh, Bing Tai Lang!" This unexpected discovery of Xiang Ying's directly confirmed my guess. This canal's water is truly unfathomable, it's completely not something we can provoke! "

"If we were to attack the consulate together, this Fa Huangnapolunsanshi can be considered to have remembered the grudge, but if you attack the Canal Company, then the people you have offended could be all the aristocrats in Europe and the major corporate capitalists in their alliance!"

"We are not afraid of offending the France. We came to Europe to fight with France, but are there any major capitalists in the circle of European aristocracy? I do not have that kind of strength! "

"Xiang Ying, tell me your thoughts …"

Xiang Ying drank a mouthful of wine to moisten his throat, "After entering the Canal Company, I felt that the atmosphere was strange. The furnishings within this company were extremely simple and beautiful, it was a very low key luxury, and it wasn't the kind of aura that a nouveau riche would have …"

"After I entered the vault, when they were celebrating with their cash, I actually found a piece of paper among the messy pile of documents on the table. It should be a property report …"

"But the words in the corner were in German! I was wondering why the French-controlled Canal Company would use German as their reporting point. Isn't that weird? "

"We all know that the Canal Company is made up mainly of French first, Egyptian second and British third... There are a total of three pieces, but I have never heard of any German joint States shares, right? "

"In order to solve this mystery, I tried to ask them for directions. I asked them to use a certain amount of shares as collateral just to see what secrets were hidden in the file cabinet …"

"As a result, when I opened the cabinet, I saw many densely packed folders inside. There was a catalog of all these surnames on the catalog …"

It was then that Bing Tai realized what was going on. You're too cunning! But what if there's nothing in the cupboard? "

Xiang Ying shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently: "Anyways, this kind of thing is about gambling, who knows what's inside the cabinet before it's opened? Fortunately, our luck is very good, this bet was really won by me! "

Xiao Letian flipped through all of the paper stocks that he had mortgaged, and his thoughts fell into deep thought. In his previous life, the stocks had already become a string of codes on his electronic network, and only those old people who sold stocks before the computer era would have paper stocks.

Of course, the internal shares of each company still existed in the form of paper. It was just that those were the privileges of the majority shareholders of the original company. Ordinary shareholders would not be able to see them for themselves.

"This is the shares of the first batch of Canal Company s. It's the most primitive stock, it will become an antique after a hundred years!"

Xiao Letian suddenly raised his head and saw Bing Tai looking at him in confusion, he knew that this fellow still had not understood the whole situation. Xiao Letian looked at his pocket watch and discovered that it was just 1 o'clock in the morning, and he was not sleepy at all.

"Actually, in the history of mankind, wars are always made between the dark and the dark. I am not talking about the Director Wang and the others' secret intelligence campaigns because intelligence wars are also part of the research of the military scientists. They are an indispensable part of the thermal warfare …"

"I'm talking about two kinds of wars. One is a struggle between people, while the other is a war between capital. Frankly speaking, it's a war between money!"
