Back to Ming Dynasty with Industrial Revolution System

Chapter 1717 It's Difficult To Meet When We Meet

In the Docklands of London, Queen Sophia of the United Kingdom led members of the English Parliament and nobles to send off visiting Chu Yun here.

Chu Yun stayed here for more than a year, and felt that the European countries were nothing more than that.

Although there are fortresses all over Europe, and it takes time to besiege the fortresses, as long as they occupy the command of the sea, it is difficult for Europe to toss any storms.

The ocean is the future for the next 200 years.

In any case, Chu Yun is going back, and it may be the last time he will come to Europe before the aviation technology matures.

The only thing I can't let go of is Sophia, who is the queen, and his son living in the west. I don't know if there will be turmoil in the United Kingdom in the future. Being a king is a very dangerous thing.

On the top of Queen Sophia's head was the crown inlaid with the ruby ​​that Chu Yun had given her in the capital before. Seeing that Chu Yun was about to leave, she was bitter beyond words, but in front of many councilors and nobles, she could not shed tears easily.

Parliamentarians and nobles have always worried that the queen will betray the country out of feelings, and the queen should look like a queen.

"In a year or two, we will be able to communicate by telegram. I will arrange special telegraph personnel from the intelligence department to ensure the privacy of the communication. See you in the capital in five years."

Chu Yun also had to maintain a certain majesty in front of his subordinates.

In fact, they had already bid farewell at Whitehall Palace, and Sophia also had to accept the fact that Chu Yun had returned, and there was no need for the two sides to be inseparable at the dock area.

"Farewell to your father, I will take you to the East in a few years." Sophia gently pushed the little prince Henry, who was Chu Zixin, with both hands.

"Father, don't go..." Chu Zixin grabbed Chu Yun's clothes.

"You obediently listen to your mother. Safety is the most important thing in everything. When you grow up, help your mother share some pressure. No matter what happened to you in the West, you can return to the East in the future." Chu Yun owed this little son a little .

"Quickly bid farewell to Miss Sophia, she will come to our capital in a few years."

"Xiao Niang, we will meet in the capital then, and we can play with brother Xin'er then."

The two children, Ling'er and Xue'er, said goodbye to Sophia and their younger brother Xin'er. They spent a period of time with his younger brother, which was considered to be a bond.

"Brother, don't cry. I'll look for my sister later. What happened is my sister is covering you." Chu Xueer said to her little brother Chu Zixin who was crying with her hands on her hips.

"Sister, can we meet again?" Xin'er asked with red eyes.

"Of course, my sister will treat you to eat a lot of delicious food. The East has a lot of delicious food." Chu Xueer said as a matter of course.

Chu Yun saw several children who were as big as little ghosts, and said to Sophia: "Then I'm going back, you have to take care of yourself, no matter what happens, I will be your backing."

"You also have to take care... I hope that I won't be disgusted with my old age..." Sophia said.

"Fool, I will grow old too." Chu Yun said.

Even though he was a bit reluctant, Chu Yun still wanted to take the lead on board the ship.

There are dozens of ships waiting for him on the Thames River. In addition to the Zhili Fleet and the Imperial Guard Brigade, there are also dozens of Chinese merchant ships who followed him to Europe. He couldn't make so many people wait for his personal affair.

Sophia just watched Chu Yun lead people onto the boat and then onto the steamboat, holding back her sobs.

Her only son, Chu Zixin, was by her side. Seeing her father and older siblings leaving, she felt a little overwhelmed.

Chu Yun boarded the ship by example, and the others were also ready to board.

The global voyage fleet was stranded in Europe for a year because of its involvement in the war between the Mediterranean Sea and the European continent. They also had to follow Chu Yun back to the mainland to complete the real voyage around the world.

Hannah, the deputy captain of Zheng He, bid farewell to the Grand Commander of the Knights Hospitaller: "Brother, if I was assigned to the Fourth Fleet stationed in Europe, I might still be able to visit you in Malta or Rhodes Island. If I was assigned to another fleet, maybe we can meet again at the World Expo five years later."

"It doesn't matter where you are. Our Knights of the Hospital has chosen to rely on the other party's economy. With your relationship with Huaxia over there, you can also fight for some rights and interests for our Knights." Castella said.

"How can you use your sister to curry favor with others?" Hannah feigned anger.

"Haha, I just said this casually. Just live your own life. With me leading the Knights, nothing will happen. Our Knights are not large, but we can roam among the big countries. With us The way to survive." Castella laughed, and he didn't believe what his sister could do.

"Then I take my leave," said Hannah.

All the members of the Zheng He boarded the scarred Zheng He.

The Zheng He was attacked by many solid bullets in the Dunkirk sea battle. After being repaired in the shipyard in England, it has been able to sail in the ocean, but it can still be seen that there are scars on some of the ship boards, and all of them have not been replaced. board.

The Zhili Fleet, Imperial Guard Brigade, Global Voyage Fleet, and Chinese merchants boarded the ship one by one. Their departure would cause the city of London to lose some prosperity.

Many Chinese businessmen came to the West for the first time.

They know that their local goods are popular, but they don't know where the goods will end up.

For example, tea is picked and transported from the mainland to the southeast coast for packing, then passes through the Strait of Malacca, the Indian Sea, and then enters the Mediterranean through the Levant by land, or detours to Western Europe by sea through Cape Storm.

The voyage is naturally very hard, but the popularity of oriental products here, and the huge profits brought by ocean voyages, many people still see opportunities to make money. There is a lack of some industries that the east already has.

"Leaving only Sophia and Xin'er here, would it be too much for her..." Aila and Dayuer said to Chu Yun before leaving.

"There's no way around this... See you in five years. At that time, Ling'er will probably become a man, and Xue'er will soon be smart."

Standing on the deck, Chu Yun looked at the gradually shrinking riverside, and could only look forward to the next meeting.

Five years later, the World Expo will be held in the Oriental capital. As long as there is no accident, Sophia will definitely bring Xiner here.

At that time, I don’t know which European kings, queens or princes will come besides Sophia. Holding the World Expo can be regarded as a summary of the industrial age that I have worked hard to bring.

It seems that the local factories should produce more industrial products during this period of time. I wonder if there will be any changes after going back.
