In 1845, Ghana experienced the merger of Upper and Lower Ghana and became the largest overseas colony in the British Empire.

In Edmond, the largest city in Alberta, a manor covering thousands of acres was filled with joy and lights.

Guests are constantly coming and going, and various unique gifts are constantly being sent to the manor.

Today is February 7th, the most important festival for Daxia people and the most grand festival every year, the Spring Festival.

Foreigners in Ghana do not understand the significance of this festival, but it does not prevent them from coming to the manor to congratulate the owner and discuss cooperation matters in the coming year.

Although the large foreign landowners in the colonies were not worth mentioning in the eyes of the traditional aristocrats on the other side of the ocean, it was undeniable that the Lin family was the most powerful, wealthy and powerful landowner in this area.

Winter in the Midwest is very difficult, with temperatures often reaching minus 20 degrees Celsius and heavy snowfall. Even your eyelashes will freeze within three or two minutes of stepping outside. It really takes a lot of courage to go out at this time.

The rooms in the manor have an underground heating system pioneered by the Lin family. A huge boiler burns a large amount of coal 24 hours a day to supply hot water to the underground pipes.

Even the big animals in the stables are treated like this, but the workers and slaves working in the pastures and fields can only huddle under the thin bedding and shiver.

Local farmers and ranchers believe that keeping them alive is a gift, and say that this is in line with the rules of Ghana. Because most of them have black skin, they should live this kind of life as a matter of course.

In the past year, Lin Feng has adapted to the daily life of the so-called aristocratic class in the local area. He already has a butler from London to take care of the chores of the manor, and has also invited aristocratic etiquette guidance.

This aristocratic etiquette instructor is also from London. He graduated from Oxford with a bachelor's degree in theology and history. He is also proficient in Spanish, Italian, and French.

If you want to integrate into the local upper class society, these are things you must do. Before your subordinates are stronger than the Governor's Palace, you must follow this rule.

Lying on a luxurious lounge chair, Lin Feng's half-squinted eyes were disturbed by the noise outside, and he couldn't help but think of his experiences over the years.

He is a time traveler!

It's just bad luck that he was chased by Tatar green camp soldiers just after he crossed over.

Maybe the situation was urgent at the time, and before I could sort out the memories in my mind, I was pulled away by my men and ran away in a hurry.

After fleeing all the way to Leizhou, Haizhu documents have been posted all over the streets. With his solid historical knowledge and epoch-making vision, he recognized that the Qing government was powerful in foreign affairs and did not dare to easily offend the foreign powers.

At a British Imperial Bank, all the 300,000 taels of silver stolen from Songjiang Prefecture were exchanged for nearly 100,000 pounds.

He also bribed the captain of the British merchant ship"Rolandona" with 100 pounds, took more than 20 men on board, and escaped from the dragnet pursued by the Qing Dynasty.

After more than a month of turbulence at sea, we arrived in Ghana, which was still in a war-torn period. When the internal chaos in Ghana was endless due to the merger of the upper and lower provinces, we made a decisive bet on the British Governor of Ghana, Earl Minto, and spent 30,000 pounds on political affairs. The donation was exchanged for a knighthood.

The money was well spent. Not only did it help Lin Feng solve the legal status problems of more than 20 of his men, but he also got the same rights to enclose land as a British citizen immigrating to Ghana, and enjoyed tax-free rights for the first five years.

They recruited workers and purchased slaves to build manors. At the same time, they also took advantage of the tensions caused by Meili Jian's repeated frictions on the border to obtain approval for the military factory from the Governor's Mansion.

With a pound in one hand and a musket in the other, Lin Feng quickly established himself in Edmond.

With his excellent strategic vision and heroic fighting men, he defeated the bandit Allison several times. He became famous in the city and his power far exceeded that of ordinary big landowners.

When you are poor in the busy city, no one cares about you; when you are rich in the mountains, you have distant relatives.

With strong soldiers, strong horses, and great wealth, the surrounding British landowners respected and feared Lin Feng. When Lin's manor held a Spring Festival feast, the nearby landowners and wealthy businessmen came to congratulate him with gifts.

Many down-and-out nobles and bankrupt businessmen thought this was an opportunity to turn around, and many of them had a young and beautiful girl by their side.

"Siona, although the Lin clan leader is a few years older than you, he looks like he is only in his early twenties. He is handsome and has a noble status. You must behave well. Even if I can't be Mrs. Lin, if I can be favored by him as his lover, our Hunter family will be prosperous.……"

At this time, a businessman wearing a mink coat was admonishing his precious daughter.

There are many people like him who tell their daughters or relatives, and sparks almost fly out when everyone looks at each other. the reason is simple!

The Lin family is a somewhat alternative but powerful presence among the Edmond landowners.

The Lin family with a knighthood can recruit a guard of no more than 300 people. This is a privilege granted by Earl Minto. It is a legal armed power that other farmers and ranchers do not have.

Although ordinary farmers and ranchers also have their own armed forces in private, these forces cannot be seen in the light. They can fight and kill in private. If they dare to open fire and fight with others, they must be careful about the governor's office sending troops to exterminate them.

But the Lin family's guard is different. As long as someone dares to infringe on the family's interests, they can knock on the door and kill those who dare to trample on the dignity of the nobility.

This kind of wealthy family patriarch with legal armed forces, let alone only a few years older than these girls, even if he is several decades older, is still a rare commodity in the eyes of the girls' parents.

At this time, after the guests had arrived, Lin Feng, the protagonist of the banquet, walked out of the door and came to the manor's auditorium, where he sat at the head and accepted everyone's congratulations.

Listening to everyone saying Happy New Year in awkward Chinese, he was in a good mood.

Although it took a year to become bigger and stronger, the Lin family���Today's strength is completely different from before.

None of the more than 20 men who followed him across the ocean are now in charge of a team of musketeers. The muskets in their hands have replaced the old-fashioned firearms fired by flash caps and used new ones that fire metal fixed center-fire bullets. Muskets, and more than 20 16-pound breech-loading rifled cannons are also hidden in secret warehouses, which can be pulled out at any time to attack the city.

This was all developed in advance at the Lin's Military Factory due to the advance knowledge of the time travellers. It was advanced equipment that even the Governor's Mansion Guards did not have.

Just as Lin Feng was perfunctorily responding to the compliments of the guests, a group of sturdy knights galloped outside the gate of the manor. Under the watchful eyes of the guards on duty, they reined in their horses and walked to the door surrounded by an old man with gray hair but a fierce look on his face.

"Go tell your master that the patriarch of the Howlett family is visiting and ask him to come out to greet you!"

One of the knights raised his head proudly and shouted to the guards arrogantly.

Before the rise of the Lin family, the Howlett family was the most powerful, wealthy and powerful family in this area, and the knight was very proud of this. , looking down on the rising star in front of him at all.

Bang!

Before the guard could raise his gun, the leader of the old man slapped the knight hard on the face, and the gloomy voice sounded like thunder.

"You idiot, damn maggot! Apologize quickly, if you offend Mr. Lin, James' illness will be hopeless!"

The knight covering his face lowered his proud head and whispered angrily.

"Sorry, I was too impulsive!"

The guard's face didn't change at all. He said a cold word and turned around to enter the manor.

"Wait here, if there is any movement, kill immediately!"

Old Howlett's face twitched, but he had to suppress the urge to draw his gun.

His grandson James Howlett became ill again and is now unconscious. The doctors invited are helpless and can only pray. A powerful enemy in his eyes came to save him.

The young and powerful Easterner was once famous for having his heart pierced through. As a result, people saw him in the bar the next day eating and drinking.

Old Howlett believed that, The owner of this manor must have the magical ability to snatch people from the hands of death, maybe it is the mysterious witchcraft of the East.
