Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

What Andreev had seen was indeed something that Xiao Letian deliberately created. The reason why very few people knew about this plan was not because the level of secrecy was too high, but because most people could not understand it.

Xiao Letian had announced his plan to revive civilization several times in public. For example, he would take the lead in introducing the most comprehensive and strict health laws and city planning memoranda in the Ryukyu. Xiao Letian even wanted to personally raise funds to build the number one museum in Asia, a world-famous museum, to store all the antique treasures he had collected.

Every time Xiao Letian publicly announced his decree, he would mention this term. He believed that the contributions of the Chinese people in terms of culture, art, health, urban construction and so on, were all to boost the sense of existence of Chinese civilization in this world.

Ten universities in Ryukyu were to be expanded, and the campus library was to be opened to the public. The monasteries, monasteries, churches and other religious buildings invested by the social religious people must be examined by countless artists before they can start construction.

Almost every street was decorated with art. You could see all kinds of statues everywhere, including stories about myths that people liked to hear about, heroes that appeared during the revival of the Ryukyu, and even some moving stories of ordinary people.

What made Andreev's impression was a mother and son statue on the side of a commercial street. The bronze statue was actually a mother and son who had died in a battle while stepping on the ground.

The statue was so lifelike that the people who looked at it were shocked. His mother had given him the last encouragement of her life when he was dying, and the child had watched his mother enjoy her last bit of motherly love. The arms of the delicate mother was his last safe haven.

Surrounding the sculpture, the citizens of the city could often be seen collecting wild flowers and putting them there. Only later on did Andreev realize that this story was actually true.

"War is not just a game of kings and generals, it is also not the only way to achieve great empires. We exalted the heroes who expanded their territories. Who would care about the fate of minor figures in war … Xiao Letian! "

Reading Xiao Letian's message below the statue, Andreev's heart suddenly had a myriad of emotions. He was extremely curious about Xiao Letian, a military officer who surrendered should have been filled with hatred for him, but now that the hatred had split, his curiosity surged, and some of it was even filled with admiration.

"Before I came to Asia, our officials all described Xiao Letian as a savage butcher, an Asian swindler, and a shameless pagan. I had also always thought that Xiao Letian relied on cruelty and deceit to reach such a position … "

"But look at what happened today. I suddenly realized that this person is actually so good at literature and education. The etiquette of the Ryukyu's Chinese is actually so high …"

The change in Andreev's mindset was in fact the result of Xiao Letian's plan on the revival of civilizations.

Civilization is not obscure and profound. Civilization is around everyone. A people, every city. Do you want to see if they are clean and clean? Does walking on the street give you a sense of beauty?

Is the people rich and polite? How many libraries and museums are there? How many religious and artistic centres are there? How many people can orphanages and nursing homes cover?

The bits and pieces that can lift people's happiness are the building blocks of civilization.

No matter how many scholars preach to the world about the glory of Eastern civilization, and how beautiful China's five thousand years of ceremony is, show it to the world. Staying in words and language is nothing more than a self-satisfied boast.

The Chinese civilization renaissance plan is to establish Asia's Paris, a beautiful city full of oriental charm.

When those arrogant Europeans came here, they completely overturned their views. Humans were born with a sense of superiority through comparison. They were able to mold an art capital and a civilization capital in the east. Naturally, they would have a strong attraction to the people.

This was the soft power of civilization. A nation could not rely on its strong military and industrial powers to display its strong strength. Others might be afraid of you, but they would also be afraid of you to maintain a sense of distance.

Only a soft increase in strength would allow them to be afraid of you and at the same time, be willing to get close to you!

Xiao Letian had predicted that as long as the revival of civilization lasted five to six years, the Chinese race would have a series of amazing cities. This kind of talent was extremely attractive, even the hermits scattered across the Chinese people, the artists and scientists who had failed to accomplish their goals in Europe and the United States, would all be attracted by the revival of civilization and become infatuated with this picturesque city.

If they kept their talent, then so would a nation. When the Chinese became the focus of the world's envy, the benefits they could gain were things that war could not give.

Such a huge and perfect plan did not attract too much attention within the Chinese government. It was indeed unreasonable, but there was no other way around it. The Chinese were currently in the midst of an outbreak of war, and the war and expansion of their territory had attracted the attention of tens of thousands of citizens, including the entire world.

However, the display of soft power was always soundless, and required a long period of time for a person to comprehend it. Thus, very few people knew of the plan to create light of civilization.

The older Translator already understood the shock in Andreev's eyes. Such a beautiful city could even conquer a prisoner of war whose heart was filled with hatred, let alone others.

Take a sip of iced sand juice and look out over the bay, where the beauty of the city blocks in front of your eyes is like a painting.

"Well, sir! This city is very big, and in two more blocks, we will reach the Shouli City. Although we cannot enter, today is the opening day of the cannon emplacement, let's go take a look at the guardian wargod of that tyrant … "

As time slowly passed, Ba Wanxin was fortunate that he experienced several wars before he was able to turn the entire city into a piece of white paper for the Chinese to wipe away. Even more fortunate that he met Xiao Letian here, was why he was able to reincarnate like a phoenix.

Beautiful scenery, delicious food, beauties, beauties … Andreev had been obsessed with this city for the entire day. The CIA had given him enormous benefits, and no one dared to urge him on.

For an entire day, Andreev was completely subdued by the city. When the sun set in the west and the night sky covered with night sky, the gas lamps on the streets lit up, and the city turned into a bright, sleepless city.

Andreev, who was holding a bag of crab claws and snacks, was so excited that the delicious food in his mouth was about to fall. In an era where electricity was not common, only the richest and most beautiful city would dare to conduct public lighting at night.

The city was outlined by the light of the gas lamps. The city stretched out as far as the eye could see! All the boats on the sea lit up as well. The light and the stars in the sky reflected each other. The breathtaking scene made it hard for people to breathe.

"My God! Did you drop your most beautiful gem here? "So this is what the Chinese are really like. We've been cheated so miserably by those civil officials!"
