However, Lin Yi was not happy too early, he still knew too little about this "Yu Meiyan" lady who was born in the Republic of China. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info used the computer to check her information.

As the saying goes, if you don't check, you don't know, and if you check it, you'll be shocked.

When it comes to women in the Republic of China, we generally think of beauties and talented women, such as Ruan Lingyu, Zhou Xuan, Lin Huiyin, Lu Xiaoman, Xiao Hong..... A series of beautiful and elegant names will come to mind, making people feel pity and fascination. During the Republic of China, there was an alternative strange woman, known as "the first desire of the Republic of China-female", she claimed to have slept with 3,000 men, and wrote the story of her relationship with her lover into "Romantic Love Letter", which became a best-selling work at that time, she was --- Yu Meiyan.

This girl was born with good looks, charming and sexy, born in a wealthy businessman's family, her father is a good businessman, her mother is a husband and a child, and she is a talented girl. Under the influence of her mother, Yu Meiyan read poetry and books, and can also speak some English. Yu Meiyan is an advanced "Western civilization" school, and the open education method has not only made her accept a lot of Western cultural knowledge, but also has a soft spot for the so-called "free and open" ideas of the West, and is very longing for the sexual concept of Westerners. This was unconventional in China at that time. So much so that she got married later, and couldn't stand men having fun outside, women had to stay alone in the boudoir, not to mention the passage of youth, and the anger of her in-laws, Yu Meiyan, who wanted to be strong, decided to run away from home after the divorce, and went to the big city to live a free and unrestrained life.

When she went outside, she simply indulged herself completely, she was full of wine, drunk and golden, and degenerated into a courtesan who could be a man.

……

Seeing this, Lin Yi couldn't help but sigh, it seems that people's personalities can really determine fate, and reading more is not necessarily a good thing. Whether in the Republic of China or in modern times, there are always these tragedies. Sometimes we like to complain, but we don't understand that many tragedies are actually caused by ourselves, such as this Yu Meiyan, who looks like a rebellious period of youth. It was also at that time that girls got married early, and they were still "children" when they got married.

……

If Yu Meiyan above is a child of youth and rebellion, then next, she will become a real profligate woman.

It is said that Yu Meiyan likes to ride horses, and she wears a skirt to ride a horse, showing off her fair thighs, which provokes many people to take a look, and the local government thinks that it is immoral, "restricting Yu Meiyan from "running naked" and riding a horse, Yu Meiyan smiled heartily, threw down thousands of yuan in the ocean, and then rode away. ”。 Her other hobby is that she likes to sleep naked, for which many hotels refuse her to stay, but the young and beautiful woman is still worried that there is no place to spend the night, and she can't count how many rich sons, local tyrants and inferior gentry have spent a lot of money to buy her night and bow down under her pomegranate skirt. Yu Meiyan became a well-known depraved flower at that time, which was simply synonymous with "debauchery, lewdness-promiscuity".

Once Yu Meiyan lost all her money, she went to a rich businessman to ask for money, and the rich businessman who picked the door bargained and refused to give more, Yu Meiyan threw the thousand-yuan bill from the upper floor in a fit of anger, and the pedestrians passing by downstairs really witnessed a miracle of falling money from the sky, and ran to pick up the money. Yu Meiyan is such a bold and chivalrous woman who dares to hate and love, and such a strong character also determines the tragedy of the end of her life.

But sooner or later, there will be times when she gets bored in the glamorous life, so she began to write a diary, and the content of the diary is nothing more than a record of the daily muddy and eroded life. She named the book "Romantic Love Letter", (also called Modern Love Letter) The book describes in detail her emotional entanglements with men, sexual feelings, etc., it is said that in just a few years, there are more than 3,000 men who have a relationship with her, which is really shocking.

Writing with her body, Yu Meiyan can be described as a pioneer writer. This book, at that time, caused a rush of purchases, and people rushed to buy it. So much so that Lin Yi thought that if Yu Meiyan was born today, she must be a popular best-selling author, then if she registers a blog on the Internet, it is estimated that "what" famous bloggers will be a piece of cake, and the server will not be directly crowded.

In 1927, Yu Meiyan saw through the red dust and escaped into the empty door, pitiful green silk fell 3,000, who should sue for her sorrowful feelings? At this time, there were a few gentlemen who were nostalgic and kept harassing her, and the master in the temple thought that she would not retreat and could not take refuge sincerely, so she was driven out of the temple.

In April 1928, on a steamship bound for Shanghai from Hong Kong, Yu Meiyan jumped into the sea and ended her life at the age of 28. Before she died, she once said: "In the next life, you can be a pure woman and get real freedom", at this time, she suddenly woke up to self-esteem and self-improvement is the real freedom. But is there really an afterlife?

……

After watching Yu Meiyan's wonderful life, Lin Yi is really an "eye-opener", and now those women who are eager for quick success are simply weak compared to her. However, at this time, the main concern is the collection value of the book.

Looking at the information, how can I not find its auction information, perhaps because this book is too rare. Think about it, it is not easy for books with such a theme, which dynasty can be classified as "banned books", and banned books can be passed down to the present, experiencing wars, the founding of the country, the Great Leap Forward, the Great Cultural Revolution, etc., it is not easy, what else do you want?

Thinking of this, Lin Yi wanted to give up a little. But in the end, he couldn't help but scan some of the contents and copyright pages of the book and send them to Uncle Chang's mailbox in Hong Kong, he is an expert in this area, and he knows a lot of people, maybe he can give some good advice.

……

After Lin Yi finished doing this, he went to bed, but he didn't know that over there in Hong Kong, Uncle Chang was drinking Longjing, studying the auction catalogue that had just been drawn up.

At this time, the sound of the email alarm alarmed him, and Uncle Chang turned on the computer to see that it was sent by Lin Yi. I can't help but feel funny, I gave this kid my email address as a communication channel, and I didn't let him harass himself in the middle of the night. Fortunately, I slept late, otherwise I would have had to get up from the bed.

However, the header of Lin Yi's email is quite interesting: Help identify this book of the Republic of China, kneel and beg!

Don't dare to "kneel and beg", you can't figure it out that you will be Boss Hai's uncle in the future. Uncle Chang opened the email with a smile, and Lin Yixin wrote it very simply, saying that he found a very interesting book when he was looking for old books, and hoped that Uncle Chang would help identify it with his "keen eyes".

Seeing this, Uncle Chang couldn't help laughing, that's right, he is an expert in appraisal, but he doesn't include appraisal, which is not a high-grade book of the Republic of China.

Although he felt a little ridiculous, Uncle Chang still clicked on the "attachment" on the back, and a picture of a book jumped out.

Originally, Uncle Chang didn't care about the picture when he looked at it, but gradually his face became solemn, and it was very solemn, so that his hand holding the mouse trembled slightly.

"How is that possible? Is this really the book? Is it? Lipstick print, signature ---" Uncle Chang was completely excited.

Looking at the time, it's almost one o'clock in the morning.

Uncle Chang couldn't care so much, so he still dialed a phone directly. It's an easy phone call he wouldn't have made, but today is an exception.

The phone was quickly connected, and it was the voice of a butler---

"It turned out to be Uncle Chang, the master is already asleep, do you have something to do with him?"

"Yes, please report it, and say that Fang Chang has something important to find him." Uncle Chang said respectfully.

The other end, "Okay, wait a minute." ”

Soon after, the phone was picked up again---

"Fang Chang, are you looking for me?" An old voice said.

"Yes, Old Tan, you asked me to inquire about it before, and you have eyebrows!"

"What? Ahem, ahem! "A violent cough.

"Don't get excited, I'll send you the picture and wait until you confirm it."

"Good, quick! The other one urged.

Uncle Chang was here, shaking his hands, controlling the mouse, and sending all the pictures that Lin Yi sent him to him by email.

Lin Yi didn't know that just tonight, his unintentional move made a big family in Hong Kong stay awake all night! (To be continued.) )
