For example, the check to be written by Zhou Jiarui is issued by the Shanghai branch of the Hong Kong HSBC Bank, this bank is amazing, the Qing government's compensation for Gengzi's compensation and general foreign debts have been processed by HSBC, and the tariffs collected by the General Taxation Department of the Qing Court also exist in HSBC, and the inventory of the entire Shanghai financial industry is two miles, and HSBC accounts for nearly forty percent of the proportion, but in the private economic exchanges, HSBC's bills are still not as good as the banknotes of the private bank.

The banker is the payment bill issued by the money bank at the request of the customer, the circulation range is not wide, but the credit is extremely high, better than the check of the foreigner bank, no matter who takes the banker to the money village to pay, only recognize the ticket and do not recognize the person, so some Jiangyang thieves tied the meat ticket and asked for ransom, do not want banknotes and do not Yinyang, as long as the banknote, it can be seen that the banknote is strong and good.

Speaking of silver dollars, now the Qing Dynasty is still the silver standard, the market circulation is the Mexican Eagle Ocean, the British Station Ocean and the United States Silver Ocean, the Qing government's Guangxu ingots are not large, the people have not used the color difference, it is inconvenient to deliver the silver ingots to find money, only the money village and the yamen also collect the silver ingots, the messy standards are dazzling, far less than the foreign silver ocean.

Zhou Jiarui immediately asked his subordinates to bring 200 standing oceans and a 1,000 taels of Zhuang tickets, and asked Liu Yanzhi: "Is it enough?" ”

Liu Yan arched his hand and said, "That's enough, thank you." ”

Zhou Jiarui said: "It's good to go, don't send it." ”

Liu Yanzhi didn't say much to him, left Zhou's garden, and began to prepare to return to Chen Yongren's hometown in Hunan. He didn't know that the secret agent sent by Zhou Jiarui was quietly inquiring about him.

Zhou Jiarui is most worried that his old colleagues will come to the door, he knows that history cannot be tampered with, he is proficient in history, and he has always paid attention to not interfering in the historical process, and has worked hard for ten years.

The bodyguard is also a member of the Qing Gang, and he is very familiar with these ruffians and hooligans in the French Concession, and he knows that there is a big trouble when he sees Liu Yan go straight into the Tianbao Hotel, which is the base camp of the revolutionary party, and most of the people who enter and leave here are anti-Qing righteous people, and they often get a bomb or something, and ordinary people in the rivers and lakes dare not provoke it.

A group of eyeliners stared at Tianbao Hotel for a long time, and they didn't find that Liu Yanzhi contacted others, the bodyguard replied to Master Zhang, Zhou Jiarui thought for a moment, thinking that the matter was exposed, but it was not that there was no room for recovery, and now he sold his assets and absconded to Europe incognito, and he was still able to keep the hard work accumulated over the years, but it was a pity to give up when he was in the ascendant.

In the world at the beginning of the twentieth century, it was better to be happy in Shanghai, an adventurer's paradise, as long as you have the courage and strategy, you can make a fortune, a lot of foreign wealth, a lot of money to an innumerable extent, and all this, with a stranger's visit coming to an end, Zhou Jiarui is unwilling to admit defeat.

He sat in the rocking chair and watched the chiming clock walk by second, and after two hours, he finally made a decision, find a few good skills, and kill the uninvited guest, at least to ensure that he was safe for ten years.

In the last years of the Qing Dynasty, Shanghai Tang was mixed and chaotic, not to mention killing a Chinese living in the concession, that is, killing a foreigner with the nationality of Britain, the United States, France, Germany and other powers, and the patrol room of the Ministry of Industry could only stare dryly.

……

At the end of July, Liu Yanzhi left the Tianbao Inn with little Chen Zikun, he did not go to say goodbye to Chen Qimei, but left a letter, saying that he took his children to the south to learn martial arts, and he would come back in half a year to a year.

Liu Yanzhi is still dressed in a long shirt and cloth shoes, holding an oil-paper umbrella, carrying a suitcase, followed by Xiao Chen Zikun, he called a rickshaw, went to the sixteen shop wharf, it is more convenient to go to the south by water, first go to Hong Kong, then go to Foshan to find Huang Feihong to apprentice, and then go to Hunan, this is his wishful thinking.

The rickshaw driver pulled the father and son to the dock, and suddenly turned into a narrow alley on the road, and lifted the car back, the father and son fell to the ground, and they heard a gust of wind, and several wooden sticks smashed down their heads and faces.

Liu Yanzhi's borrowed Chen Yongren's body is simply a place where he has no hands to tie the chicken, and he will be beaten in three or two hits, but it is the nine-year-old Xiao Chen Zikun who is quite combative, in the end, he is Huo Yuanjia's closed disciple, and he didn't want to die when he fought at a young age, but after all, he was not strong enough, and after kicking the crotch of two people, he was also subdued.

"Little Red Guy, be ruthless." The thieves kicked Xiao Chen Zikun a few times, but he gritted his teeth and didn't hurt his feet, with the expression of a little tough guy.

"Brother, ask for money, there is silver in the baggage, even if you take it, don't kill yourself." Liu Yan said calmly, he knew that if he was targeted, generally speaking, thieves would not kill people, it was not so necessary.

Several thieves searched out silver dollars and banknotes from their bags and stuffed them into their pockets, but they didn't intend to let the two of them go, they actually took out the sacks, Liu Yanzhi immediately understood that this was to put the father and son in the sacks and throw them into the Huangpu River to feed the fish.

"Do you know who we are? Does Chen Qimei know? Does Li Zhengwu know? Liu Yanzhi hurriedly took out the names of several big names in an attempt to scare the other party, but the other party didn't care, didn't speak, tied them up with hemp rope, stuffed rags in their mouths, threw them on the rickshaw, and went straight to the river.

Liu Yanzhi struggled desperately, but to no avail, he was not afraid of death, because he was already dead, this time it was only Chen Yongren's body that died, but his son was only nine years old, he couldn't die! He must live, live well, and do something earth-shattering.

In a blink of an eye, when they arrived at the Huangpu River, several thieves carried the two sacks onto the sampan and rowed towards the center of the river, and Liu Yanzhi heard them talking: "Throw the big one or the small one first?" ”

"Let's throw the big one first."

A second later, the sack containing Liu Yanzhi was thrown into the river, probably because the sack was filled with stones, and it fell straight down into the water, Liu Yanzhi was desperate, because his son would be thrown down soon, and in his anger he seemed to feel that his soul was about to break out of his shell, his hands struggled, the hemp rope was broken, and the whole person ran upwards and rushed straight to the water.

The thieves were about to throw the small sack into the river, when they saw a wave rushing out of the water, and just now the man actually broke out of the bag, suspended in the air in a daze, staring at them with a pair of eyes, cold and hairy.

"Who sent you?" Liu Yan asked directly.

The thieves were completely shocked by this demon, no one dared to talk nonsense, and reported a name on the spot, it was a bag from the patrol room to inquire, Liu Yan nodded when he heard it, waved his hand and threw a few points of light, he inadvertently released energy, and happened to hold a few hands.

Several thieves were shot by him, stiff and immortal, and saw Liu Yan fall straight on the sampan, untie the sack and let Xiao Chen Zikun out.

"Kid, these people want to kill us, do you think you can spare them?" Liu Yanzhi asked.

"Can't!" Little Chen Zikun's face was full of hatred.

"What should I do?"

"Throw them down and feed the fish."

"Do you dare to do it?"

"Of course you dare!"

Liu Yanzhi nodded with satisfaction, these thieves were innocent, but he didn't plan to let his son kill at such a young age, with a wave of his hand, several thieves fell into the water, sank to the bottom of the river and never floated again.

Someone tried to assassinate himself, maybe it was the enemy of the Restoration Society, maybe it was Zhou Jiarui, Liu Yanzhi decided to follow this line to investigate, he first found the bag to inquire, and after breaking his two thigh bones, he got a definite answer, it was the big comprador Jerry. Zhou buys murder.

……

In the garden of Zhou's house, Zhou Jiarui was trimming his cigar cigarette at his desk, when he suddenly noticed a black figure standing behind him, hurriedly opened the drawer, took out a Colt revolver, and suddenly turned around and aimed at the black shadow.

As soon as the black shadow waved his hand, the six-inch barrel of Colt's revolver turned into a twist.

Zhou Jiarui was shocked, and saw the black shadow coming over, revealing his true face, it was Mr. Chen who had come to fight the autumn wind before.

"Teacher Zhou, you shouldn't buy murder me." Liu Yan said straight.

"Who the hell are you?" Zhou Jiarui stepped back, his face contorted with fear.

"Don't care who I am, that kid is the son of Liu Yanzhi and Lin Su, you dare to kill him, do you think he can spare you?" Chen Yongren's voice was as cold as the Siberian wind.

"I don't know!" Zhou Jiarui knelt on the ground, trembling all over, "I just want to get rich, I'm afraid that you will ruin my business, knowing that it is Yanzhi's son, I won't move that thought if I say anything." ”

"I didn't want to kill you, but I can't keep you now." Liu Yanzhi slowly raised his hand, "Killing you can be regarded as clearing the historical BUG." ”

"Spare your life!" Zhou Jiarui lay on the ground and cried, "You can still use me, aren't you on a mission, I have connections and money, where are you going, I'll buy you a first-class ticket, no, I'll send you a boat, I can meet any needs of Yanzhi's son, does he want to go to school, I'll arrange St. John's to find the best professor." ”
