After four years of continuous planned immigration and construction, Langgabo has now become a first-class city in Southeast Asia.
The original urban area of Langgabo is now just a district of the city. When Lin Youde landed, there were dozens of large and small plantations between Langgabo and the Subic Bay port area. In fact, they were very close to each other.
Two towns. Now all the plantations between the two towns have been removed, and the new urban area connects Langgabo and Subic Bay Port.
The new city was divided into three different districts by the two tributaries of the Kalakang River that flowed into Subic Bay. In order to save trouble, Lin Youde named these three districts the red zone, green zone, and yellow zone, and named the newly established responsible areas.
The anti-riot police force was named Black Watch.
The Red Zone is located on the west side of the Subic Bay Port area. It is a square island surrounded by two tributaries of the Kalakang River and the sea. Most of the heavy industries in Langgabo are concentrated on the island. The buildings in this area basically follow the
Lin Youde's instructions were made into square matchboxes, and the traffic road planning was strictly implemented in a checkerboard pattern. Even the street naming rules had a strong industrial flavor: all streets were divided into different directions according to their orientation.
There are two major categories, vertical and horizontal, numbered with Arabic numerals, and finally the "A, B, C, and D" classifications that represent road width and transportation capacity are added. Therefore, the names of roads in red areas are generally like this: horizontal 15 A, vertical 7 B...
The Yellow Zone is to the north of the Red Zone, across the Kalakang River from the industrial zone. This zone is full of light industry and commerce. The design style of the buildings is uniformly Western European style, so most of the Westerners who come to settle in Horanggabo
People will choose to buy their own homes in the Yellow Zone. The streets in the Yellow Zone are named after European cities. This is Paris Street, that is New York Street, London Street, Berlin Street...
To the west of the Yellow Zone and the Red Zone, the two tributaries of the Kalakang River intersect to form a T-shaped river branch. To the west of the T, the Green Zone and the Red and Yellow Zones face each other across the river.
The Green Zone mainly houses Lin Kee’s offices, schools, and official agencies of various countries in Langgabo, etc. At the same time, public facilities such as the Assembly Hall and the Stadium are also built here. Compared with the other two zones,
The green area uses simple Chinese style as the architectural tone and is lined with trees. The scenery here is unique and it has become a gathering place for the wealthy people of Langgabo.
In four years, the population of Holangabo increased to 1 million - including Lin Ji's planned immigrants, overseas Chinese who spontaneously migrated from various parts of the Philippines, especially Manila, and Westerners who came to the east to seek gold.
In addition, there are more than 500,000 Japanese residents in Langgabo, living in specially designated Japanese areas outside the red, green and yellow zones.
The rapid growth of Helangyabo is regarded as a "miracle" by Westerners, but Lin Youde experienced the pleasure of playing a realistic version of Sim City from the growth of the city.
In addition to the red, yellow and blue districts, the Japanese district, the port district and the old town, there is also a magical district in Helang Yabo called the Great Future District. This district is next to Lin Kee's black technology development zone.
The residents are scientists and their assistants who come from all over the world to queue up to use the divine calculation. When the divine calculation was first built, there were only two types of scientists who would go to Holang Yabo: those who were overwhelmed by the huge amount of calculation work.
There are true scientists, and the other type are swindlers who take a fancy to Lin Youde’s support for science and come to defraud funds - especially the latter type, which is quite large in number.
But many real scientists discovered the "thrill" of face-to-face communication with their colleagues while waiting in line to use magic calculations: Lin Youde thoughtfully designed a communication platform for them consisting of various forums and debates, so that these anxious waiting people could use it.
Machine scientists have a place to kill time.
As a result, this series of mechanisms became very popular, especially the "miniature science expo notice boards" that Lin Youde ingeniously installed at every street corner. Many scientists have developed the habit of stopping in front of the notice boards when walking to see what magic their colleagues have.
The idea of and then casually added some comments to express opinions. This kind of bulletin board, referred to as "**", quickly became a fashion. In order to ensure that there is always enough space on the bulletin board to leave messages to scientists, Lin Youde had to
Let Sophie add a complex mechanical structure to the notice board, so that the content on it can be scrolled...
This kind of pleasure of communication, coupled with the well-equipped public laboratory built by Lin Youde at a large price, attracted more scientists from all over the world, and the Big Future District gradually turned into a brainstorming disaster area.
.If you take a horse-drawn carriage and walk around this area, you will definitely see all kinds of incredible things along the way.
In comparison, the Japanese community seems much more ordinary. But that's just in comparison. In the past few years, the Japanese community in Horanggabo has gradually formed a distribution pattern of residents divided according to their hometowns. Not only that, they also
Taking the central avenue that runs through the Japanese community as a boundary river, the Tosa Satsuma and other clans and the Aizu and Sambaku clans had their own guild halls, facing each other across the street. The guild halls on both sides hung their respective clan flags, and people entering and exiting would always face the opposite direction.
They glared at each other angrily, and from time to time they had to fight over the issue of "how to save Yamato".
In addition, some Japanese people have also formed a very strange view. They seem to think that the Chinese here are first-class citizens, the Japanese are second-class citizens, and people from other countries are third-class citizens. The reason why this is the case
This view seems to be because some Japanese people believe that Ba is Lin Youde's real wife, and the French girl is just a means to win over France. Don't you see that besides serving as Lin Youde's bodyguard, Ba is also responsible for other important responsibilities, and Josephine
It seems to be just a vase that can be beaten.
When these words reached Lin Youde's ears, he just laughed them off.
At the end of the summer of 1901, Kodama Gentaro's secret envoy arrived in Horangaha by boat and checked into the guild hall of the Choshu clan in the Japanese overseas community. On the same day, according to Lin Youde's instructions, Lin Ji's intelligence agency transferred back ten people from various places.
Several intelligence operators with Japanese ancestry or Japanese identity temporarily strengthened the strength of the Horangabo headquarters.
In this emerging port city, a spy war began.

Lin Youde felt that he would never be able to get used to the Japanese-style sitting posture in his life. He quietly squinted at Ba, who was sitting dignifiedly and kneeling next to him, and thought to himself that it was a shame that this girl had such beautiful long legs.
Based on confidentiality considerations, Lin Youde chose the meeting place with Kodama Gentaro's emissary in the side hall of the main shrine where Kutsuhime lived. In order to show respect for Kutsuhime, Lin Youde had to follow the local customs and kneel down to wait for the meeting.
An interview with an emissary. In less than five minutes, his feet began to feel numb. By ten minutes, Lin Youde subconsciously remembered the past when he was punished by the platoon leader to practice squatting when he was a military student in high school...
Sitting on your knees is so uncomfortable.
Lin Youde admired Ba Lai more and more. Sometimes Lin Youde would go to a restaurant in the Japanese area to eat Japanese food on a whim. Ba Lai would do all the serving work. This girl would kneel down all night without changing her expression.
Fortunately, the secret envoy did not keep Lin Youde waiting for long.
"Sorry," the middle-aged man who opened the sliding door and entered the Japanese room bowed deeply to Lin Youde and folded his body at 90 degrees from the middle. "I'm sorry for keeping you waiting. Mr. Lin Youde, it took a little time to get rid of the tracking."
time."
"It's okay," Lin Youde smiled and shook his head, "Mr. Zhuzhong, you are tired from the journey."
“Don’t dare to take it seriously, don’t take it seriously…”
In this way, Lin Youde continued to exchange polite words with Zhuzhong for a few times, exchanging a few irrelevant words. Then Lin Youde lowered his face and got to the point.
"Mr. Takenaka, I wonder what the purpose of His Excellency Gentaro Kodama, the Governor of the Japanese Empire in Taiwan, is to send you here?"
In Lin Youde's memory, although Kodama Gentaro was dressed in military uniform, he was actually a politician. Although he once deprived that idiot Nogi Nogi of his command authority and commanded the Japanese army to quickly capture the famous 203 Heights, the reason why this achievement looks beautiful
The biggest reason is that Nogi Nogi's previous performance was really bad. In comparison, Kodama Gentaro's brilliant martial arts are revealed...
This is similar to the Woodpecker tactic of the Warring States Period. Baba Nobubo came up with such a nondescript tactic, and even let Uesugi Kenshin ride on his lord's flag with three swords. Shingen was stunned and then walked away. It was also known as
One of the wise generals of the Warring States Period. This is entirely because the structure of the Warring States Period in Japan was too small and there were too few capable people. (This is the history of the previous time and space, this time and space version is different)
However, Lin Youde still quite agreed with Kodama Gentaro's political skills. In addition, Lin Youde remembered that Kodama Gentaro agreed with Sun Yat-sen's ideas and had supported the activities of the Tongmenghui. However, Lin Youde did not carefully study whether he was like Miyazaki.
Tonzo, who sincerely wants to drive the prosperity of Asia by relying on China's prosperity, is still a conspirator with evil intentions like the Koya Council.
Because of this, the emissary sent by Lin Youde and Kodama Gentaro without any warning was quite alert.
Perhaps sensing Lin Youde's doubts, the smile on Zhuzhong's face looked a little helpless.
"I heard that Mr. Lin has a bold personality, so Takenaka, who is not talented at all, confessed his purpose of coming. Mr. Kodama is deeply worried about the current situation of the Japanese Empire. He thinks..." The Japanese paused and glanced at Lin Youde with deep meaning.
After a glance, he continued, "Lord Kodama believes that if the Japanese Empire wants to continue to develop and confront the European and American powers, it must enter China."
Lin Youde curled his lips, thinking that this guy really dared to speak, but he did not interrupt the Japanese.
"But now, Lord Kodama believes that it is impossible for Japan to 'enter' China like the Western powers. Because by the time the Japanese Empire is ready to enter, you, Lord Lin Youdelin, should have already been ready.
Preparations to take over the entire China. Lord Kodama believes that confronting you head-on is a foolish thing, and he hopes to find other ways to gain a proper position for Japan on the future world map."
After the Japanese finished speaking, Lin Youde picked up the tea cup in front of him and pretended to taste it.
At this time, what came to his mind was the classic Huang Gai's fake surrender scene in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", and a voice kept shouting in his mind: "Please whip me, Gong Jin!"
But what Lin Youde couldn't figure out was that even if this was a false surrender, what benefits could the Japanese get from it?
Finally, Lin Youde decided to stimulate the emissary in front of him and explore the outlet.
So he put down his tea cup, raised his eyebrows inadvertently, and said, "Oh? So, Your Excellency, Gentaro Kodama, intends to cooperate with us to overthrow the current Japanese regime?"
"No, no," Takenaka shook his head repeatedly, "Kodama-sama's appetite is not that big yet. You sent me here just to separate Taiwan from the Japanese Empire. With Taiwan as a precedent, what do you want in the future, Mr. Lin?"
Landing on the Japanese archipelago will be much easier, isn’t it?”
