Tirpitz returned to Germany with joy, and after changing ships in Qingdao, the negotiation team of the traveler rested on the ship for a night on the way and arrived at the Shanghai port early the next morning. Then two escorted warships stopped sailing here, while the Ping'an still carried the members of the negotiation team to continue sailing, sailing from the Yangtze River Estuary into the Huangpu River, heading against the current, and reaching Huishan Wharf in the Shanghai Public Concession.

Huishan Wharf is the largest wharf in the Shanghai Public Concession, all made of reinforced concrete. Including Huangpu Wharf, Yangshupu Wharf, Huishan Wharf, Huashun Wharf, etc. Because the water depth of this river is 7 meters, large passenger ships can be parked, so it is the international passenger terminal of Shanghai in this era. All international passenger ships entering and leaving Shanghai are docked here, and are operated by the British Gonghexiang Wharf Company. The general area is the Huangpu River coastal area between Qinhuangdao Road and Gongping Road in the old time and space, with a total length of about 80 meters. The coast of the wharf is the same European-style building. People who have been to Shanghai in the old time and space can still find some familiar buildings.

Before the Ping'an ship was docked, Qin Zhengji came to the bow of the boat. From a distance, he saw that there were crowds of people standing on the dock, with 20,000 people of 30,000 people. Although they were far away, it could be seen that most of them were Chinese. It seemed that Shanghai welcomed them to have a lot of pomp. However, most of them were blocked in the outer circle, leaving a large piece of open space in the middle, with more than a dozen people standing, most of them were foreigners, and a few were Chinese, one of them was tall and with a flower feather, which was Li Hongzhang, and the other two were Liu Lantao and Li Hongbing who arrived in Shanghai in advance.

In fact, most of the Chinese who came to the dock to welcome the negotiation team were from home, because Shanghai is the most well-informed region in China in this era, and there are various statements about the origin of time travelers, which have spread in Shanghai. The series of victories achieved by time travelers on the battlefield have also greatly boosted the spirit of the Chinese in Shanghai. After all, for decades, China has been a character who was angry and beaten, making the Chinese quite unable to raise their heads in front of foreigners. Moreover, because Shanghai people have a broad vision and modern concepts, they do not discriminate against overseas Chinese, so they regard time travelers as China, and they are more willing to identify with time travelers in their hearts. Therefore, they learned that the negotiation teams of overseas Chinese arrived in Shanghai today and all came to the dock to see the style of overseas Chinese.

At this time, Qin Zheng was quite moved. When he had just traveled to this era, he did not expect that he would come to Shanghai in this way. You should know that Shanghai occupies an extremely important position in modern Chinese history. Since it is the Shanghai Concession, it is the earliest, has the longest existence, has the largest area, has the most prosperous economy, has the most perfect laws, has the largest management organization, and has the most full development. It is not only a witness to humiliation in modern Chinese history, but also a pioneer in China's modernization.

The Shanghai Concession was established on November 29, 1845. The Qing government Su Song Taibing Beidao Gong Mujiu and the British Consul in Shanghai, Georgeba1four, jointly signed the Shanghai British Concession, and officially established the Shanghai British Concession. In 1848 and 1849, the US Concession and French Concession were successively established.

At first, Britain, the United States, France and other countries had only the right of residence in the concession, while the concession, territorial sovereignty, land jurisdiction, judicial power and administrative power were still under the jurisdiction of the Qing government. However, in September 1853, the Shanghai Sheng Xiaodaohui Uprising and captured Shanghai county towns, threatening the security of the concession. Britain, the United States, France and other countries felt that the content of the "Shanghai Land Rental Regulations" could no longer meet its needs, and in July 1854, the new land charter signed by the ministers of the Three Kingdoms, namely the "Shanghai Britain, France and the United States Concession Land Rental Regulations", which was generally called the second "Land Articles", obtained the extra-legal autonomy of the concession, and on July 11, jointly established an independent municipal agency, Shanghai Industrial Bureau, which officially formed the later real concession - a country in the country.

However, this second "Land Articles" was drafted and approved by Britain, France and the United States. After it was implemented in the concession, it was notified by Shanghai. It did not discuss it with the Qing government at all, and the Qing government could only acknowledge that from then on, all foreign concessions established in China had extra-legal autonomy.

In 1862, the French Concession withdrew from the union and established its own Public Concession Bureau. In September 1863, the concessions between Britain and the United States in Shanghai were officially merged and unified by the Ministry of Industry. In this way, the Shanghai Concession officially formed a situation where the French Concession and the public concession were united. Later, other countries that established the concession in Shanghai also joined the public concession. Therefore, this pattern has been maintained until the founding of New China in the old time and space.

Now the Shanghai Public Concession has expanded to a total area of ​​335o3 mu, from the east to Zhoujiazui (now the corner of the military road of Pingliang Road); the north border reaches the junction of Shanghai and Baoshan counties; the west extends to Jing'an Temple, and the south to the French Concession. The entire concession is divided into four districts: middle, north, east and west. It generally corresponds to the riverside zones in the south of Beihuangpu, Jing'an, Hongkou and Yangpu districts in the old time and space.

So in this time and space, when will the time traveler take back all the concessions in China and completely end China's humiliation? It is definitely not later than the old time and space. And just when Qin Zheng was thinking, he heard a warm cheer coming from the dock. It turned out that who was the one who took the lead in cheering in the crowd immediately attracted everyone's response and formed a warm welcome to the time traveler.

Moreover, lights flashed from time to time in the crowd. Several cameras that were originally mounted in the crowd also began to take pictures. The cameras in this era were very large, inconvenient to carry, and very expensive. A newspaper office usually only had one or two lifts. Therefore, the reporters who accompanied Li Hongzhang to visit Tianjin did not bring cameras, nor did they take pictures of time travelers. Now they are on their own places, and each newspaper office has moved their cameras to the dock to take a few photos.

When Qin Zheng saw this, he waved his hand very much, imitating the image of the national leader in the film and television dramas. The cheers on the shore were even more intense and lasting for a long time, and the flash of the camera never stopped.

The consuls of various countries who were waiting to welcome overseas Chinese negotiation teams at the dock were not very good-looking. They came to the dock in person to welcome overseas Chinese negotiation teams. On the one hand, overseas Chinese are indeed a victory on the battlefield. This is a fact that consuls of various countries have to admit, and they have to respect the negotiating teams they sent. On the other hand, it is also because overseas Chinese are very courteous to the observation teams sent to Tianjin by various countries, so this is why everyone respects each other and respects each other.

However, what the consuls of various countries did not expect was that today there would be so many people coming to the dock to welcome overseas Chinese negotiation teams, and there would be a long-lasting cheer, which was something that had never been before. In fact, the consuls of various countries all felt keenly that the atmosphere of the entire Shanghai Concession had indeed changed subtlely over the past period of time. The Chinese in the Concession were obviously different from before. When talking to foreigners, they no longer shrank, feared their tails, and had some confidence. There were even rumors in the concession that foreigners would have been in the glory for a few days.

Although consuls from various countries knew that overseas Chinese had no intention of attacking Shanghai, the changes in the spirit of the Chinese in the concession had to be paid attention to. If this momentum was allowed to continue, it would not be a good thing for the concession.

At this time, the Ping'an had already arrived at the dock and boarded the gangway. Qin Zheng took the lead in getting off the ship. Li Hongzhang, Liu Lantao, and Li Hongbing took the lead to welcome him. Li Hongzhang bowed and said, "Thank you all the way to the Qin Political Commissar."

Qin Zheng smiled slightly and said, "Where, where, I have to worry about the adults in the middle hall."

Liu Lantao and Li Hongbing also came over to say hello to Qin Zheng and told Qin Zheng that the office had been rented out. Qin Zheng also encouraged the two of them. Only then did Li Hongzhang introduce the consuls of various countries to Qin Zheng.

In fact, as Li Hongzhang's identity, he didn't need to introduce it. After Liu Lantao and Li Hongbing came to Shanghai, they would have met consulars from various countries. In terms of emotion and reason, they should have introduced consulars from various countries to Qin Zheng. It was not Li Hongzhang's turn to do anything. However, Li Hongzhang had his own meaning after robbing this job. He intended to play the role of an intermediary between time travelers and countries and show his presence.

Qin Zheng didn't care too much. Under the guidance of Li Hongzhang, he met with consulates from various countries in Shanghai one by one. First, he first introduced that he was the British consul Huo Bilan. He was a middle-aged man in his fifties. He had a slightly slim figure, but his eyes flashed, showing a very smart and cunning appearance. French consul Bai Zaotai was younger, thinner, with a slightly longer head, and had a bit of an artist's temperament. American consul Guna was a typical businessman with a professional smile on his face. Although he knew it was fake, it did not make people feel annoying.

German Consul Knappe is tall and has a serious and not harsh expression. It is completely in line with Yan Jin and a serious German image. However, when he shook hands with Qin Zheng, a smile appeared on Knappe's face and said, "I hope that in this negotiation, we can cooperate with you happily." Qin Zheng immediately understood that this guy had received instructions from Germany and only saw how he would help him in the negotiation.

Japanese Consul Chee Odagiri and Russian Consul Dmitryev were completely extreme. The former was short and thin, but they were wearing a trouser dress. As a result, the two trouser tails behind the butt were almost dragged to the ground, and the face was full of a flattering smile. When they saw someone, they nodded and bowed subconsciously, as if they had a conditioned reflex, which was really impossible for people to feel good about it. The latter was almost 1.9 meters tall, fat, wide waist, and bearded, and looked like a big bear. I don’t know if he was wearing the wrong dress or other reasons. In short, the clothes were tightly broken, as if they would crack at any time, and their heads were always raised, their mouths were tilted so that they could hang oil pots, and their eyes were almost growing on the top of their foreheads.
