[Titanic] Golden House

Chapter 19

In March [-], the founding father stepped down as the interim president of the Republic of China, and Yuan Shikai officially took office in Beijing in the third year of the same year.This is one step closer to his proclaiming himself emperor.It's a pity that today's people are so wise that they want to become emperor, unless they go back three to five years.

At the end of March, Rose held several telegrams in her hand and was silent for a long time.It turns out that there are really saints in this world who say that at the pinnacle of power, there are really people who are willing to let go of everything.When she saw this scene on TV and in books before, she never believed that there would be such a person in this world.

In the past, she always thought that resigning from office was a last resort, something that was pulled down by others.But in this era, he has grasped the development news of this incident in many ways.Only then did Rose really confirm that the founding father was willing to let go.

It was also on this day that Rose suddenly thought of something.A total of six Chinese servants headed by Duo'er were called.

"It's been a while since you've come to my place. Are you still used to your life?" Rose has never eaten pork, but she has seen pigs running, and she knows a thing or two about the leaders' friendly visits.That's why he came here with a friendly face and a smile.

Everyone glanced at each other, Duo'er replied on behalf of everyone, it was nothing more than habit, gratitude or something.Rose just nodded and smiled.

"You are all from China, and you left your hometown. Do you want to go back?" Rose was actually a little bit reluctant to let them go. Since they came, her life has changed a lot.Because of Duo'er's existence, her heart is much more stable here.

After Rose said a word, everyone fell silent.These days, some choose who is willing to leave their homeland all the way to this unfamiliar place.Say a word, do not understand.

"Huaxia, the Republic of China. There is no emperor in the Republic of China, and all people are the same. There are no good people, and there are no slaves. Everyone is equal. Now, you are free people. You are no longer slaves."

After hearing Rose's words, the six people raised their heads instantly, stunned, unbelievable, surprised, bewildered and so on.

"Your contract of sale has expired. You, like all Huaxia people, are independent individuals. You can go wherever you want. No one can restrain you and restrict your freedom anymore."

"Miss Rose, is this true?" For many years, the wish of these families for generations to have children was to redeem themselves.Slaves can be bought and sold, and they are the private property of their masters. Three generations of slaves are not eligible for imperial examinations.Miao Xing and his wife only have one daughter, Duo'er.Ever since their daughter grew up, they were afraid that Duo'er would catch the eyes of the hostess and break the taboo of the hostess.

They are even more afraid when the master's family commits a crime.Slaves who were prisoners were sold.If it weren't for God's mercy, their family would not be able to get together.Maybe we will never see each other again.

And their daughter, Duo'er, may have been sold into the flower street and willow alley at this time, living a life where people are not people and ghosts are not ghosts.Miao Xing still remembered that if Master Kang hadn't bought them and Li Da's family early on.Don't talk about them, just say that Duo'er may be bought by the old lady of the brothel in the city just like the other girls in the house.

Now I heard the British master say that they are free, and they are no longer slaves.How could this not make him excited.

"It's true. If you want to leave, or want to go back to China, I will buy you the nearest boat ticket from the UK to China. However, China has just undergone this change, and there may be some armed conflicts in the future , if it gets bigger, maybe there will be wars. So, you have to think carefully."

When the world prospers, the people suffer, and when the world perishes, it is still the people who suffer.No one knows how difficult this kind of life is better than them.This is the case when there is no Zhanluan. If Zhanluan is added, there will be no anger left.What's more, at this time, strong men will be arrested. Without a man's home, life is more bitter than Huanglian Tang.

When Miao Xing's family and Li Da heard this, their joy fell to the bottom instantly.Huaxia Residence is not easy.They have never lived the life of ordinary good people.But the specifics, they do know.Although I can't help being a slave in a big family.But when natural disasters occur, there is no need to sell children or daughters.

And as I said just now, they are all civilians.But there are still plenty of rich and powerful people.But for them, because there is no shelter, those who bully others will have no scruples.Not to mention the possibility of war, there is no war.Will they be able to live a good life when they go back?

They are all skilled, and it is easy to find food.But start all over again.It's just that they are not young anymore.Even if we return to Huaxia, what's the difference from here?

"I'm going to the United States in April. I guess I won't be back until May. If you're still not sure, just let me know when I come back in June."

"Miss is going to the United States, do you need to prepare anything?" As a close maid, Duo'er immediately thought of this.

"There is nothing to prepare, but to participate in the maiden voyage of the Titanic. Just bring some clothes and jewelry. You don't have to follow me this time. Just stay with your parents."

According to the plan, Titanic will depart from Southampton, UK to New York, USA in April. If the normal sailing speed is followed, it is planned to arrive at NO.20.Of course, Rose wouldn't allow it to be accelerated to seven days like in the original book.Is it to New York, it is to heaven.

After arriving in New York, USA, Titanic repaired and replenished for ten days.Return to Southampton, England on May [-], officially ending the maiden voyage of the Titanic.

Tickets for the Titanic were very difficult to buy, and Rose bought two second-class tickets.She has a mission this time.She doesn't want to really go to the circus to experience life.So I bought a ticket each for Carter and Jenny.

And Rose herself and Rufu Andrew were in first class.The boat ticket was given to the designer by Baixing Company.After all, as the chief designer of the Titanic, Andrew had to sail around with the Titanic.

Because of the particularity of this trip, although Rose had thought about how to prevent the Titanic from colliding with the iceberg, there must always be an emergency.So she is not going to take these people from Huaxia on a trip.If the ship still can't handle the fate of the sunken ship, then there will be no need for more Chinese people to fill the sea with their lives.The honor of the British, they do not get the light.Then this kind of injury, they don't have to be unlucky with them.

Sometimes, it is fair to think about when God created man.He gave her good looks, but did not give her a delicate heart at the same time.

She was given a gold exchange system, but she was not given a body full of fat and fat.Sometimes I think that God is really fair and cannot be more fair.

Rose thought of this somehow, shook her head and smiled.He said to Duoer and the others in front of him: "Go down and think about the future. I plan to go to Huaxia in July and August. If you decide to stay with me in England. When I go to Huaxia in July and August , I will take you with me, as if I were going back to visit my relatives. If I choose to live in Chinatown in the UK, I will still take you to China in July and August. I will bring you back."

When everyone heard this, they immediately knelt down and thanked him.Later, I thought that this kind of etiquette is not practiced here in England, and Miss Rose didn't like their humble appearance.But they all just bent over to express their thanks.

Suddenly Rose remembered the past, and said to several people sternly: "If you stay in the UK, all the treatment will remain the same, as with other servants in Butek's family. But one thing, I want to make it clear .I don’t want you to leave just because you are a free person. If you say you don’t want to do it, you don’t do it. If you don’t want to work with me, you must tell me in advance, so that I can prepare a replacement in advance. Understand? ?”

"I understand. Miss Rose, please rest assured." Everyone said in unison.

"Well, that's good. If you want to go back to China, I'm beyond my reach. But if you plan to stay and settle in the UK, as long as I can, I will protect you. I will never let anyone bully you. "

"Thank you Miss Rose for your kindness." This was what they were most worried about. Now that Rose made such a promise, they felt more at ease.

"It's nothing, well, go down and get busy."

"Yes" several people retreated one after another.It's just that when they approached the door, Changxing, who was walking at the end, glanced at Rose with some hesitation, and then bowed his head and left.

In the past few months, Changxing's work has not been heavy.The two pandas have long adapted to the environment here, and they are cute and cute.There is no one in the Bookett House who dislikes them.Often one can't stand it.The two don't know where they went.

The whole Buckett House, from the master to the servants, played with them.Gardens, indoors, as long as they want to go, they can come in and out at will.Even Rose's study, the two little guys broke through.Fortunately, these two have been trained so that they are not wild, otherwise, if a bear's paw comes over, it will kill someone.

Changxing is not like Miao Xing's family, the whole family is together.I also don't want Li Da's family, who have no parents and no children, are similar everywhere.The purpose of coming to the UK in the first place was not simple.But back then it was because he couldn't help himself, but it's different now.Of course he wanted to go back.But after going back, what about the two pandas?He really needs to think about it.

Like the entanglement in Changxing, it is also on the other side of the ocean.There was also a guy who hesitated repeatedly between going back and not going back.

"Brother Dog Leftover, when will I save up enough for the Huaxia ferry ticket this time?" Li Goudan asked his cousin sitting beside him as he touched the small purse that had faded from the seawater.

"The boat ticket back to Huaxia is very expensive. Let's save some time and we will have it. But you can't just go back empty-handed. Isn't the family going to marry you soon?" For many years, I haven't even earned a copper coin back, so I can't make people laugh out loud.

"When I went out to sea to run a boat, my mother told me to go back after this experience. Don't delay the day of getting married."

Back then, he and his cousin Gou Sheng went out to sea to run a boat, but they encountered a shipwreck.Fortunately, they all lost their lives and were taken in by a Chinese organization.Because I know how to punch and kick, and through some hard work, I stayed in this Chinese organization.It's just that the two brothers can't read, and there is no way to write a letter to the family.

It's easy to say that they can't read. There are people in the organization who can read, and they can help write a letter if they ask.But their family members are also illiterate, and there is not a single literate person in the whole street.Even if I wrote the letter back, I couldn't find anyone to help read the letter.The two brothers thought about it, and simply stopped writing.I am going to stay for another two years, earn money, and go home.Just let the family think they are still running the boat.

But also because of the shipwreck, the wages they saved and the goods they sold on the ship for convenience were lost.Gou Sheng glanced at his cousin, feeling a little uncomfortable.Well, he didn't bring anything out except that he went ashore by himself.At least his younger brother Goudan kept the purse that he was wearing next to him.Did he know that there was a pair of onyx earrings in it.

Fortunately, according to the rules, those who run the boat can get part of their wages before going to sea.Otherwise they will lose even more.

"I heard them say that we are in the Republic of China. Does it mean that those families don't need to redeem money when they give birth to a child?" Goudan, who doesn't know how careful his cousin is, happily put the purse around his neck and hid it in his clothes.

"That's right, save this money, your daughter-in-law will probably be able to add another dowry." After poking his lips, Gou Sheng followed suit.

"Hehe, I don't care about the dowry." I only care about that person.That was his obsession since he was a child, the person who promised to never let go until his death.

"You don't care, but my aunt does. If you have more dowry, your daughter-in-law will be less bored."

"Hehe." Goudan knew what kind of temper his old lady had, so he could only touch his newly cut hair and smile foolishly.

"Yo, my dear master. I haven't seen you for a long time, so imposing!" Xiao Jiang, the system housekeeper, appeared in the room after several people left with his teeth-itching tone.

"Drink, you're still alive." Rose was actually happy to hear Xiao Jiang's words. After all, she hadn't seen each other for several months. A partner who can laugh and scold, Rose admits that she really misses him a little bit.

"Well, you little heartless one. I've only been away for so long, and you're so heartless. It's a waste of my hard work. Who would have thought that my whole heart was shining in the ditch!"

I have never seen such a shameless one before.The gold exchange system on Rose needs to be maintained regularly, so the system Xiaojia has been going to maintain it these days.

Originally, because of lack of meat, she was blocked from making a fortune, and Rose was furious. After listening to Xiao Jiang, this person was going to be furious.

Under strong pressure, I wanted to step forward and shake the shoulder of a certain system manager.Rose asked, "Why did this maintenance take so long? Did something happen?"

"It's nothing, it's a normal phenomenon. Don't look like a lower-level person entering the city, okay?" Xiao Jiang's mouth must be said to be poisonous.One word choked Rose.

Rose took a deep breath, she'll take care of it next time, she's a mallet!

Of course, this kind of words means to say in my heart that in this life, if there are no accidents, she and the system steward will be connected to each other for life and death.

This really corresponds to a sentence-blessings come without pairs, and misfortunes never come singly.
