The mage in the late Qing Dynasty

See Yang Yide doing something strange.

Zhao Chuanxin put his hand into his pocket, held the insect silk scarf between his fingertips, and threw it back.

Just as Yang Yide was about to open the drawer, his vision suddenly blurred and he felt his hands and wrists tighten.

A silk scarf as thin as gauze tied his hands tightly together.

Zhao Chuanxin walked over cheerfully and said as he walked: "Xiao Yang, you are so dishonest. Let me see if you want to get a gun."

As he spoke, he walked over and opened the drawer, and was shocked to find that what was inside was not a gun, but a small yellow-orange goldfish.

Zhao Chuanxuan skewers, so it can be seen that this little goldfish must be often held in his hand to finish the dish.

That's it?

Yang Yide had a smile on his face: "I wanted to use this to apologize to Mr. Zhao."

It was very embarrassing for Zhao Chuanxin.

He waved to the insect silk scarf, which floated up and rolled into his pocket.

This hand made Yang Yide look straight in the eyes.

He suddenly thought that Zhao Chuanxin seemed to have the nickname "Arch Mage".

Isn't this magic?

Some things that were kept secret in later generations are respected by people in this age of gossip.

Zhao Chuanxin sneered: "Haha, so that's what you think. I misunderstood you."

He came today with no intention of fighting or killing.

Scare Yang Yide, slap him in the face and give him a sweet date are the few strategies in his mind.

He went over and opened the door. There was a guard on the ground outside the door whose hands and feet were bound and his mouth was gagged. There was a small box next to the guard.

Opening the box, it was filled with silver coins.

Zhao Chuanxin pointed to the box and said to Yang Yide with a smile: "I have heard that General Manager Yang regards money as dirt.

Zhao doesn't believe in evil and must give Mr. Yang some money! "

He had considered doing this.

Although I don’t know how my identity was leaked, I can’t implicate Zhang Zhankui.

He had been with Zhang Zhankui before.

Yang Yide: "..."

His face showed a smile for the first time tonight, and his smile was extremely sincere.

"Mr. Zhao, you are so polite..."

Get promoted and make a fortune.

If you can't get promoted, it's the same as getting rich.

Zhao Chuanxin smiled brightly: "How about it, General Manager Yang, is there a misunderstanding today?"

"Mr. Zhao has made contributions to thousands of Chinese compatriots. Mr. Zhao has shed blood outside the customs and been injured overseas. Mr. Zhao has made contributions to the country and the people!"

Yang Yide estimated in his mind that the amount of silver dollars in this box should be no less than tens of thousands, so his face was full of solemnity.

Zhao Chuanxin looked solemn: "General Manager Yang, you know me!"

Even the guards who were tied up outside the door were dumbfounded.

Do these two people really want to face each other?

Rolling his eyes slightly, Yang Yide added: "I wonder if Mr. Zhao knows a businessman named Jiang Jingming, who identified you. Mr. Zhao also knows that in my position, the court has issued a wanted order, and I can't help it. .

However, Mr. Zhao, from now on, you and I will treat each other as brothers. If Mr. Zhao has anything to say, just say it, and Yang will never stand idly by. "

Zhao Chuanxin nodded: "That's very good. I'm taking the liberty of visiting you tonight, so I'll say goodbye."

Zhao Chuanxin went out with Shi Shiran with his hands behind his back.

At the gate, he nodded to the stunned guard.

In fact, he came in by cutting the window and did not alert the guard at the gate. He just tied the uniform of the guard at Yang Yide's gate.

Stepping into the rain, Zhao Chuanxin silently counted a hundred, and found that Yang Yide had not sent anyone to pursue him, with a mocking sneer on his lips.

Whether it is a dragon or an insect, history will eventually give the answer.

He went to the nearest Lishunde Hotel, where Zhang Zhankui had arranged for him to stay.

This hotel was built in 1863 by the British pastor John Yinsend who spent 600 taels to purchase 6 acres of land in the British Concession of Tianjin.

It was called "China's No. 1 Store" at the time.

The hotel was in a Victorian style. Zhao Chuanxin walked into it and saw that the lobby was clean and spotless. It was much better than the dirty little hotel he stayed in before.

The price is naturally high for a good environment. The cheapest hotel in an ordinary hotel costs just a few pennies a night. The smallest room in the Lishunde Hotel with 152 rooms is only 24 square meters. Zhao Chuanxin offered five yuan to get the best and the biggest one. s room.

It was a very solid sleep.

Ironically, staying in a foreign hotel is much safer than other places.

It is said that Mei Lanfang, Li Hongzhang and Chaplin all lived here.

The next morning, Zhao Chuanxin washed and ate, checked out of the room and went to the Northern Section Patrol Headquarters to find Zhang Zhankui.

Zhang Zhankui was not at the headquarters, but a patrolman kindly called him back.

Seeing Zhao Chuanxin, Zhang Zhankui's face looked as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. His eyes were redder than a rabbit, with big dark circles under his eyes.

"Mr. Zhao, you scared me to death."

There was so much commotion last night, and of course he heard about it.

Although it is known that Zhao Chuanxin was not caught in the end, his whereabouts are unknown.

"What can happen to me?" Zhao Chuanxin looked at the few people following Zhang Zhankui, and they were all depressed.

Presumably these people followed him and spent the night together.

So he took out a stack of oceans wrapped in oil paper and handed it to Zhang Zhankui: "Thank you for your hard work, brothers. Let's take it and treat everyone to a drink and a bath."

Zhang Zhankui declined, but Zhao Chuanxin insisted.

Finally took it.

Sure enough, when his subordinates saw the money, their expressions of decadence became clear.

The world is bustling, only money can be used!

Zhao Chuanxin added: "Next, you still need to cooperate with the Lugang Town Charity Association to purchase supplies.

If you encounter difficulties, you can ask Liu Baobao to find Yang Yide. "

Zhang Zhankui's eyes widened: "Looking for Yang Yide?"

It was Yang Yide who sent people to arrest Zhao Chuanxin last night. Why did he say he had trouble finding him?

"Mr. Zhao, are you serious?"

"Haha, Yang Yide and I hit it off immediately, and he insisted on recognizing me as his sworn brother.

I had to reluctantly agree.

He said that if something happens, he will do it! "

Zhang Zhankui told Liu Guogui about the situation with doubts.

He thought it was outrageous, and Liu Guogui, who was very receptive to it, laughed: "Passengers have always been unpredictable.

If he says it will work, it will work. "

Liu Baoguo's contact person went to purchase supplies, while Liu Jiahui went to the newspaper office of Ta Kung Pao opposite the clock on Xu Street in the Japanese Concession.

Seeing that Liu Jiahui was a female figure, Yinghua, the chief writer of "Ta Kung Pao", didn't pay much attention to her.

But when Liu Jiahui said: "I am here on behalf of the Lugang Town Charity Association."

Hearing the words "Lugang Town", Yinghua's back straightened unconsciously.

"Lugang Town Charity Association? Is Ms. Liu here to raise funds?"

In his opinion, this is the only way it makes sense.

It's a pity that it would have been better if Zhao Chuanxin was here today. He has wanted to see Zhao Chuanxin for a long time.

Yinghua practiced martial arts when he was young, but he studied hard and covered a wide range of subjects.

This scholar who was born in Zhenghongqi has done several great things in his life. In addition to founding Ta Kung Pao, he also founded BJ Fu Jen University and Xiangshan Orphanage.

Compared to other bannermen who were rotten to the core, Yinghua was unique.

But Liu Jiahui shook her head: "That's not the case.

I came today to ask Mr. Lengzhi to temporarily join the supervision team of our charity association to supervise the disaster relief matters in Hong Kong. "

Supervising disaster relief cannot be said to be new, it can only be said to be unprecedented.

"Miss Liu, please elaborate."

Liu Jiahui explained to him the structure of the Lugang Town Charity Association, the powers of the supervision group, and the significance of inviting supervision from all walks of life.

Yinghua was greatly impressed after hearing this: "In this way, disaster relief has become a regulated matter.

Money and materials can also be distributed as desired.

Wonderful, wonderful!

Is this Miss Liu's idea? "

Today Liu Jiahui is wearing a white shirt, tailored to fit her body. The lower body is a pair of narrow gray trousers, and on the feet are a pair of casual cloth shoes produced in Lugang Town designed by Zhao Chuanxin.

Her hair was tied back with French bangs in the front.

This kind of outfit is unique at this time. It is quiet, dignified, beautiful, and a little sexy.

Because she exposed her white and slender ankles.

Women these days not only bind their feet, but also cover their body, hair and skin tightly, as if any exposure is a violation of chastity.

Liu Jiahui has her legs together, her left leg is tucked behind her right leg, and her hands are folded on her knees. She has a graceful figure and excellent temperament.

He said slowly: "This is Mr. Zhao Chuanxin's idea.

He believes that there is no immortal institution, and only reasonable supervision can keep people alert.

Rating is for efficiency and unnecessary waste. "

"Mr. Zhao is really talented. He can mount a horse to kill the enemy with martial arts, and he can govern a party with literary skills. He is even ahead of the world in charity work.

Ms. Liu is also amazing, a woman is not inferior to a man. Nowadays, women are conservative, and only a few can come out to do things. "

Yinghua is also a ruthless person, defying the sky and the ground. Cixi, who criticized the capital, and Yuan Shikai, who was always close at hand, were known for their outspokenness.

That is, he is the one who can praise a woman's work without any scruples.

He admired the beautiful and capable woman in front of him.

Many people think that rural women at this time did not bind their feet, but the opposite is true. The more ignorant you are, the more conservative your thoughts are.

On the contrary, it is the housewives of many advanced intellectuals who put their foot down.

Liu Jiahui was modest, but not excessive: "Mr. Lianzhi has given me the award.

In Lugang Town, all women have to work.

There are also women in the police station, who patrol on horseback and carry guns every day, and also go into battle to kill the enemy in wartime! "

Yinghua gasped.

"Could it be that all the people in Lugang Town are soldiers?"

"That's not true. But if there is an invasion by a foreign enemy, I believe that no one in Lugang Town will be a coward."

These words made Yinghua blush.

Why does it sound like he is satirizing the Qing court and the Manchus?

In any case, the two chatted happily.

Yinghua not only agreed to go with him, but also promised to help contact other social classes to participate.

Finally, when leaving, Liu Jiahui said to him: "Mr. Lianzhi, the Lugang Town Charity Association does not make everyone work hard for nothing. At least the travel expenses must be paid, and food and housing are taken care of."

Yinghua hurriedly waved his hand: "Since it is a charity, how can I only ask you to pay for it? To be honest, I am also interested in charity and want to open an orphanage in Xiangshan."

Hearing this, Liu Jiahui smiled and said: "Mr. Lianzhi, there is no need to refuse. This is the rule of the Lugang Town Charity Association. Otherwise, if things go on like this, if people who are in need are invited, it will be embarrassing for them.

In addition, Mr. Lianzhi wants to establish Xiangshan Orphanage. If he has financial difficulties, he can apply for financial assistance from the Lugang Town Charity Association, but the flow of money will definitely be monitored. "

Wait for Liu Jiahui to leave.

Yinghua immediately took out a pen and paper and started writing the latest press release.

At this time, his thoughts were flowing like a fountain, and he was writing with great energy. He quickly finished writing and handed it to the editor: "This draft will be inserted into the next issue of the newspaper immediately. Such good people and good deeds must be reported!"

…

What a coincidence, the new issue of "Ta Kung Pao" was about to be published, and the article he had just finished was published in the newspaper and disseminated in Tianjin.

"Ta Kung Pao": First, the Lugang Town Insurance Team did their best to defend the land, and then the Lugang Town Charity Association rushed to Hong Kong to provide disaster relief. However, the government offices in various places are full of decadence and wasteful spending. Cutting down relief funds and using them for other purposes is even more dangerous than drinking poison. What's more, funds for disaster relief are withheld to enrich private coffers. The national treasury is extremely low, foreign debt is increasing, dangers are emerging day by day, and it is almost on the verge of danger...

Yinghua is not exaggerating. In recent years, disasters have continued year after year, comparable to the natural and man-made disasters in the late Yuan and Ming Dynasties, leaving the Qing court in a precarious state.

When the weather is good, the blood-sucking moths that live among the people may not have much impact.

But if we continue to do so now, it has intensified the resistance in various places. The uprisings have repeatedly failed, but the uprisings are like wildfires that start a prairie fire and start again as soon as the spring breeze blows.

The news that the Lugang Town Charity Association went to Hong Kong Island to provide disaster relief was published in the newspaper and attracted great attention from all walks of life.

In particular, Yinghua explained in detail the reasonable and advanced structure and system of the Lugang Town Charity Association.

In fact, these systems are not new at all. Every country will set up supervision agencies.

However, Lugang Town Charity Association is the first to summarize these systems and use them in commercial or non-profit organizations.

For example, today's businessmen may also understand these principles and be able to effectively manage dozens or hundreds of people.

But those with this kind of ability generally rely on themselves to get to the top. When people are gone, the tea will cool down, and when they are gone, the government will cease.

The perfect system of the Charity Association ensures that the Charity Association is an ironclad and a smooth soldier.

This is the rule for everyone, just follow it.

This efficiency is much higher.

When many writers were greatly inspired and wanted to make reference to it, Zhao Chuanxin and his party had already taken a boat to go south.

The whole journey was speechless until we arrived in Shanghai.

Liu Baogui, Liu Jiahui, Gao Li and others took Yinghua and other people from all walks of life on the passenger ship.

Zhao Chuanxin took a cargo ship carrying grain.

With the lessons learned from Tianjin, he was worried that others who followed him would suffer unreasonable disasters.

After getting off the ship, Yinghua finally got his wish and saw the true body of Zhao Chuanxin.

He took two steps forward: "Mr. Zhao, I have admired your name for a long time, but I didn't expect you to be so young."

Looking up and down, it turned out to be a talent!

It can only be said that his understanding of Zhao Chuanxin is still too one-sided.

After being introduced by Liu Jiahui, Zhao Chuanxin shook hands with Yinghua: "I'm glad to meet you. Sometimes I worry about why I won't grow old?

Mr. Lianzhi is also very young and does not look like a fifty-year-old man at all. "

Yinghua broke his defense: "Mr. Zhao, I am only thirty-nine years old this year!"

This made Zhao Chuanxin very embarrassed. He sneered: "It's the same, it's all the same. Don't care about these details."

Yinghua was speechless.

This was very different from the meeting scene he expected.

The young man in front of me looks carefree. He has a good skin, but his temperament doesn't look like a good person.

Everyone in Lugang Town naturally knows that Zhao Chuanxin has this kind of character. No matter where he goes or who he faces, he is who he is, and I am afraid he will never change it in this life.

So Liu Jiahui took the lead and quickly talked to Yinghua to divert their attention.

After leaving the port and walking for a while, it was Zhao Chuanxin's turn to be confused.

An old lady knelt down in front of him and kowtowed heavily!

Brothers, everyone who sees this is a true fan.

A few words: This book is almost 400,000 words long, so it’s a late start. But after signing the contract, my performance increased rapidly, which was beyond my expectation.

This is why you can find "Captain Zhao" from the new book library.

So don't worry, the results you see are just a starting point. The author himself is in good condition and will not stop updating.

Thank you for your support, brothers, thank you for your rewards, recommendations and monthly tickets.

I see it all.

So you dare not try your best?

Finally, you are welcome to complain in the article. No complaints, no joy.
