From the preparation of artillery fire to the end of the battle, it was only an hour. Perhaps the hatred was too deep. Liu Shiba and the others did not leave a living mouth, and even the prisoners were killed. However, Liu Shiba regretted that the leader of the sea wolf, Zhang Long, was not on the island. The prisoners told him to go to Wenzhou to meet his mistress. Back on the Wuming Island, there was a celebration banquet that night, which was a good wine, food and a lively meal. Everyone was drinking and talking, and even

Hoffman and other foreign devils also joined the celebratory crowd. The foreign devils who were used to drinking red wine and brandy made the island drunk with the old white dry in China. Only Yang Yi quietly came to the beach alone while the crowd was not paying attention, holding a pot of wine in his hand. Looking at the bright moon gradually rising on the sea, experiencing the rare tranquility alone. Compared with the noise of the crowd in the distance and the quiet beach, Yang Yi still likes the tranquility and tranquility of the sea.

The moon is bright and the waves are rinsing the beach rhythmically. The beach here is yellow and the sand grains appear thick. Yang Yi can't help but miss the beaches in Hainan in later generations, and the comfort brought by the white and soft beaches.

As a military advisor, Liu Yuan's usual carefulness still made him notice Yang Yi's departure. Seeing Yang Yi sitting quietly by the beach, Liu Yuan held a jar of wine and sat next to Yang Yi.

"Brother Yang, why did you run out alone?" He said that, and handed the wine jar to Yang Yi.

"Nothing, I just like the beach." Yang Yi still had that signature smile on his face. Looking at the bright moon in the sky, letting the sea breeze blow his hair.

"Come on, drink."

"Okay, drink." The two of them sipped with the wine in the jar one by one.

"Brother Liu, the pirates' business is not a long-term solution. Do you have any other plans?"

Liu Yuan took a sip of wine, "Brother Yang, we are also forcing us to go to Liangshan. Which one has a good life but just run out to be a pirate? Most of the people on this island are forced to escape only after they are forced to escape."

"Yes, the court is corrupt, corrupt officials, bullies are rampant, and ordinary people have very few ways to survive."

"Damn it, Yang Ersao, a widow who sells tofu, is forced to jump into the sea. Fortunately, we were discovered by us and saved me. Is this world still alive?" Liu Yuan scolded angrily.

"I want to change this world." When Yang Yi said this, Liu Yuan saw something on his face that he could not understand but felt a little understood. This kind of mind is different from the Confucianism's mind that a master can help the world.

Although Liu Shibayi repeatedly tried to keep him, Yang Yi and Hoffman drove the "Graf" to their destination Shanghai. Two days later, Wusongkou was far away. The water at the mouth of the Yangtze River was two colors. The waves of the blue sea, the rushing river was green, and the fireworks were fireworks in March. The river water was as green as blue as spring came.

In the past, Shanghai gave Yang Yi the impression that there were tall buildings everywhere, crowds of people were surging, the sea water was turbid, and even the water of the Yangtze River was brown. While building their own homes, humans were constantly destroying the earth where they survived.

In front of Shanghai, there is no noise from later generations. Wusongkou Port is more like a fishing village, with only a few two- or three-story Western-style buildings in the distance, indicating that this is Shanghai, the place where the Western powers have the most concessions in China and the most open place in China at this time. Although this kind of opening up was not willing by the current dynasty, China still opened up under the pressure of the guns and cannons of the Western powers. Some knowledgeable people also began to examine the impact brought by Western civilization and think about China's future.

Yang Yi and the others were still wearing small clothes provided by Liu Shiba, so the first thing they did after getting ashore was of course to patronize the tailor shop. When they entered one tailor shop after another, although they brought a lot of business to the store owner, they also brought a lot of shock to the boss. After all, a large group of foreigners in strange clothes suddenly came to a store, and those who became bosses would inevitably be scared.

Breathing the unique marine air of Shanghai and feeling the pulse of this future metropolis, Yang Yi knew that he would witness the city's journey from desolation to prosperity.

The days that followed were busy. Yang Yi fully utilized the advantages of Hoffman, a foreign devil. After all, foreign devils are now eating in China, and even the government has to give them three points. Moreover, Germany is rigorous in nature, and these trivial things are asked to Hoffman and his men to do, which also saves Yang Yi a lot of trouble. Yang Yi was able to concentrate on developing various cosmetics. A month later, Yang Yi also understood the production process of facial cream, facial cleanser, lipstick, and soap. The first batch of finished products were also released. Next, the troubles that made Yang Yi headache came. Many modern cosmetics packaging use soft plastic as the main packaging method. Now where to find these things in this situation, there is no way, so they can only use glass bottles first, but lipstick is spared, and they will be put on for the time being.

The next thing is to recruit personnel. In recent years, there have been constant floods in the Jiangnan area. There are many refugees in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. When they heard that there are work and food, and there are also work for wages, the people who want to work are all in the sea. Nowadays, if you have a full meal, it is God's blessing. So Yang Yi recruited enough personnel without much effort. Then he divided the process flow of each product into several parts and passed it to the workers, so that each of them is just a screw on the factory machine. In this way, even if someone comes to dig his feet in the future, the workers will not be able to learn all the production processes. Yang Yi learned this from a modern Japanese company. As for the formula, Yang Yi temporarily made it himself and passed it to him when he found someone he thought was suitable and reliable.

Two months later, the first batch of "Li Ren" whitening creams, a total of 1,000 bottles were launched. Yang Yi asked Hoffman to return to Germany with these creams and a ship of Chinese tea and silk. Before leaving, Yang Yi listed a bunch of machines and equipment that Hoffman brought back, including steam engines, generators, lathes. Of course, foreign guns and cannons are indispensable. Hoffman recruited a large number of technicians in Germany and said that there were a lot of wages. If there were things, it depends on the sales. Yang Yi knew that he had not much time. It was early June 1852, and there were only 9 months left before the founding of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. Time was tight. He had to accumulate enough wealth in the shortest time. When Xiang Rong was reused, it was the beginning of his start.

If you want to sell things well, of course you must not miss advertisements. The traditional Chinese characteristics of accepting new things are difficult, and as a person who has lived in the overwhelming and flooded advertisements in later generations, Yang Yi knew deeply that wine was also afraid of deep alleys. At this stage, the main group of cosmetics consumption is a rich lady’s wife, and the other is a lady in brothel. Given the natural gossip of Chinese people, Yang Yi decided to start with brothels as a breakthrough.
