Seeing that Gu Jiting refused, Lina didn't care and went to Wang Zizhong's side.
Prince Zhong curiously drew out several cards: Hermit, Lovers, Tower, Star, Justice, and Death.
Lina said directly, "The hermit who walks alone with a lantern, you persisted in the pursuit of truth throughout your life. Even the shackles of the soul and sudden changes could not extinguish the hope in your heart. You sought a truth, but returned to the dust of death."
Wang Zizhong asked, "Master, could you explain it more clearly?"
Lina shook her head: "The revelations of fate do not allow for further disclosure."
Finally, she walked up to Huang Yu, holding a shuffled deck of cards in her hand.
"Mr. Strongman, would you like to participate in the divination?"
Huang Yu's lips curled up slightly: "Of course, I also want to know how much of my fate you can glimpse."
Huang Yu was really looking forward to it, wanting to know just how far this Gypsy witch could go.
He's a variable who doesn't belong to this world. If Lina can even see that... then he'll have to study him carefully!
Looking at the tarot cards laid out in front of him, Huang Yu had a sudden inspiration and immediately drew out a stack of cards, more than Wu Gensheng and the others.
He wanted to know how the witch would interpret this situation.
Zhang Zhiwei laughed and said, "Brother Huang, you're cheating! How come you brought out so many cards?"
Huang Yu said dismissively, "Brother Zhiwei, you're being too attached to appearances. Didn't you hear Lina say that the number of cards is also part of the revelation of fate?"
"Perhaps, the fact that I drew so many cards is God's will."
The cards are revealed as follows: The Fool, The Magician, The Hierophant, The Emperor, The Chariot, The Devil, The Tower, The Star, Death, Judgment, and The World.
Lina looked at the eleven tarot cards and couldn't help but swallow hard.
The situation seems a bit bad.
A light shone in her eyes, as countless lines of fate intertwined on the tarot cards, trying to discern their underlying meaning.
After a long while, Lina looked at Huang Yu with a strange expression and remained silent.
Huang Yu asked curiously, "What's wrong? Did you see something?"
Lina sighed and said, "I have never seen such a vague destiny, as if it has no past, yet possesses a source..."
"Hehe, the river of fate starts from its source, branches into countless branches, and eventually returns to its source..."
Lina suddenly went berserk, gesturing wildly and chattering incoherently.
"Hahaha, fearless fool, you possess infinite possibilities; you are about to embark on a wondrous adventure..."
"You are a versatile magician, you are the pope who links the fire, you are the emperor of order, and you are also the demon who manipulates order..."
Young Master Leo helped Lina up and apologized, "I'm sorry, Lina has gone mad again. Every time she tries to peek too deeply into fate, she ends up like this."
He looked at Huang Yu and said, "You don't need to worry about the divination just now. Fate seen in a state of madness is often inaccurate."
Huang Yu nodded and said, "It's alright, you can take Lina to rest."
Leo took out a business card and handed it to Huang Yu. The business card had a white rose design on it.
“Friend, I am from the French Rozier family. This is a case of 'no fight, no friendship,' and I hope we can have more exchanges in the future.”
"I've prepared a banquet tonight, and I wonder if I could do you the honor of attending."
Leo's attitude was extremely frank, and he seemed to be trying his best to eliminate the conflict between them.
Huang Yu couldn't help but admire Leo's family education; he wasn't the kind of brainless spoiled brat.
At least after using his "Appearance Observation" skill to observe, he found that Leo genuinely wanted to resolve the conflict and had no intention of seeking revenge.
Of course, the ability to make someone like Leo humble himself is ultimately due to his strength.
As long as you possess great strength or influence, others will naturally change their attitude towards you.
Huang Yu took the business card and pondered. He did need a new channel to understand Europe, and the Rozier family, as one of the Twenty-Eight Holy Clans, was indeed a good one.
"Alright, I'll bring some people to your banquet tonight."
"Thank you for coming, my friend!"
Leo was overjoyed, finally managing to put the matter behind him.
The main reason was that the opponent's strength was too great, which Leo simply couldn't understand, and was even more terrifying than those older generations.
As for the dignity of the nobility, it is insignificant in the face of power.
Anyway, he wasn't the main heir of the family. The reason he traveled around the world was twofold: first, to relieve his frustration, and second, to look for new opportunities.
Now, I wonder if this group of newly acquainted powerful individuals might be an opportunity.
Chapter 200 The Rise of the Hong Kong Wave
Waaah!
The ship's horn pierced the morning tranquility.
The group stood on the deck, gazing into the distance.
The outlines of a dense cluster of buildings, rising like a forest, gradually came into view.
"We've arrived in Hong Kong."
It takes about two days to travel by boat from Fucheng to Hong Kong.
Jimmy said, "Let's not wander around. There's a shift going to Marseille, France this afternoon, and we'll leave Hong Kong by boat this afternoon."
"If you really want to explore Hong Kong, you can wander around the surrounding area, but don't go too far."
"I heard from people here that things are not very peaceful in Hong Kong lately, so it would be best to leave as soon as possible."
Huang Yu frowned and asked, "What do you mean by 'Hong Kong is not peaceful'?"
Jimmy sighed, "There might be some large-scale unrest soon."
"This matter has to start from Shanghai."
“Last month, a bloody incident occurred in Shanghai, where a Japanese businessman injured and killed more than a dozen workers, which aroused great dissatisfaction among workers and students.”
"Ultimately, a wave swept through Shanghai, with countless people taking to the streets..."
"English police opened fire on unarmed civilians, killing thirteen people, wounding dozens, and arresting over a hundred."
"After this tragedy, the conflict was completely intensified, and the wave of resistance began to spread to major cities across the country."
"Because of the epidemic, Fujian is under strict control, so there hasn't been much activity."
"That's why I chose to transfer in Hong Kong; there might be unexpected factors in Shanghai."
"However, the situation in Hong Kong is not good either. It would be better if we left as soon as possible to avoid delaying our trip."
Huang Yu seemed to be deep in thought; it must be the major event he remembered.
Jimmy's guess was correct; due to the crackdown and changes in the situation in Shanghai, the operation quickly entered a low ebb.
On the contrary, Hong Kong, with the support and backing of Guangzhou, became the main force in the operation, and this continued for more than a year.
Later, with the Northern Expedition underway, in order to concentrate efforts on unifying the whole country, the wave of activity in Hong Kong ended and the blockade was lifted.
Meanwhile, hundreds of thousands of workers became a steadfast support for the Northern Expedition, either accompanying the army north or maintaining stability in the rear.
……
There were suddenly more people on the deck.
Several people dressed in worn-out long gowns leaned against the railing, craning their necks to look at Hong Kong:
"Wow, this is Hong Kong!"
"This building is really tall!"
"It's much more prosperous than Fucheng!"
Looking out, the densely packed tenement buildings and colonial-style buildings stretch all the way up the hillside to Victoria Harbour.
On the sea, countless sailboats were crowded together, with black smokestacks of ships slowly spewing smoke through the gaps.
At that time, Hong Kong had a population of about 600,000 and was a well-established transshipment hub in the Far East under British rule.
Although Hong Kong is far less prosperous than Shanghai, it is still an important commercial port city in the south.
hum!
The ship shuddered slightly, the engine noise subsided, and the ship was about to slow down and dock.
Huang Yu and his group had already packed their luggage, carrying a few wallets, and were leaning against the gangway.
"Let's go. Once we get ashore, don't wander around. Let's find a place to get something to eat first."
"I heard the dim sum here is pretty good: rice noodle rolls, boat congee, wonton noodles, char siu buns, shrimp dumplings, siu mai, chicken feet..."
Zhang Zhiwei laughed and said, "Hahaha, then we're in for a treat! We'll definitely eat a lot later and take advantage of you, you big spender."
Huang Yu said, "Eat as much as you want, eat whatever you want."
"The Guangdong region is one of the richest in Chinese cuisine. We shouldn't wander around aimlessly, but we don't need to skimp on food."
The group consisted of extraordinary individuals with digestive abilities far exceeding those of ordinary people, allowing them to indulge in a delicious feast.
Crunch!
The ship's hull scraped against the dock's embankment with a screeching sound as the gangplank was slowly lowered by the sailors.
"We've reached the shore! Time to disembark!"
The crowd began to move, and Huang Yu and the others jumped ashore together.
As soon as I squeezed through the gate, several rickshaw pullers came to greet me:
"Sir, would you like a rickshaw ride?"
"Where to? I can pull the cart fast and steadily, you won't get jostled."
Jimmy picked out a rickshaw driver with tanned skin, took out two Hong Kong dollars, and said:
“Take us to the best teahouse nearby, and these two Hong Kong dollars are yours.”
The rickshaw driver laughed and said, "Alright, then I'll take you to Xinghualou. It's an 80-year-old establishment, and it's nearby, not far."
