Chapter 52: Flirting
This gift was very big, famous, and favorable, and even Zhang Hanqing was almost moved by his lies.
Zhu Qichao was shocked. He was amazed that Zhang Hanqing, at such a young age, could come up with such a "gift" that would be of great benefit to the country, the people and himself. It is true that he is a politician, but he is also fascinated by ancient architecture. Zhang Hanqing gave him a big hat from a patriotic height, he had to wear it, and he happily obeyed his fate.
"I solemnly accept your gift." He said it very solemnly, and what he respected was Zhang Hanqing's feelings.
Only with a sincere heart for the people of the country will we pay attention to such things. In his memory, no son of a military attache would consider problems from this perspective, nor did he see any outstanding junior like Zhang Hanqing. At this time, he remembered the rumors he heard in Beijing some time ago about Zhang Zuolin's eldest son, Jiang Baili and Cai Yi, two talents that they valued together, were really extraordinary.
With the change of Zhu Qichao's attitude towards Zhang Hanqing, the sisters of the Zhu family, who had been shrouded by the halo of their strict father, began to be restless. They either squeezed their eyes or stuck out their tongues, but they all looked at Zhang Hanqing with admiration. It is not easy to say that the father who has always been serious is so heartwarming.
Miss Zhu Wu was at an age when people were not big and had a lot of ideas, and she whispered in the ear of the fourth sister with admiration: "This Brother Zhang gave my sister such a big gift." ”
Miss Zhu Si sneered and said, "It's just a big piece of cake, didn't you listen to him, he only has three hundred yuan, and the rest is for my father to take the lead." Even the so-called villa, which has to wait for his father's funding, will be built in the air. ”
The voices of the two were not big or small, and they just happened to let Zhang Hanqing hear them. Zhu Qichuan was talking to his old friends on the side, and he didn't care about the whispers of his little daughters at all. Miss Zhu San also said jokingly: "Han Qing, what you said is too far away. It's my birthday today, good or bad, you won't really come empty-handed, right? ”
Zhu Qichao happened to hear it, and he reprimanded him dissatisfiedly: "Han Qing is just a child, where did he get the money to buy you a gift?" You don't have any tolerance as a sister. "Zhang Hanqing is so knowledgeable and so discerning, with Zhu Lao's level, how can he lose points on a small gift?
Zhang Hanqing suddenly felt that his old face was hot, and he couldn't sit still. Indeed, in this matter, he is ingenious, but he has no intention of repaying the debt? After a few years, after he has full wings, it shouldn't be a problem to spend some money to build a villa, right? If you want to live, then the golden house will be hidden, and then it will be considered to be a fulfillment of the promise if it is given to you. It's all about time!
It doesn't matter if a few little kids look down on him, he doesn't have the same knowledge as them, but it can still highlight his demeanor. But the key is the evaluation of the opposite sex, especially the opposite sex, which is quite good, which is tolerable or unbearable. He leaned into Miss Zhu San's ear and whispered, "How about I give me to you as a gift?" In addition, I have given you all the savings I have over the years, and I have never used them, without reservation. ”
This is a joke, saying that on the second day of the wedding, the new daughter-in-law came out against the wall and scolded: "This liar, he said that he has more than 20 years of savings, I thought it was money!" ”
This sentence is a little frivolous, if Miss Zhu San understands the meaning of his last sentence, I am afraid that she will scold him for being a hooligan on the spot, right? It's a pity that the third lady also misunderstood it as money! She smiled and said, "How much can you sell it for?" Pay back your savings? How many can there be if you laugh to death? "Speaking from the heart, Zhang Hanqing looks really annoying, one of the four beautiful men of the Republic of China, and his quick wit is also appreciated. A talented and handsome man will always be admired by a young woman, even though he is still a few years younger.
Dare to underestimate me! Zhang Hanqing held back his smile and said quite confidently: "Thousands, I haven't counted them---- but it's enough for you." ”
Zhu Songyun didn't take it to heart, it was enough, and he thought it was "enough". She said frankly, "I need a lot, the more the better." "Although women don't spend money on social occasions, the cost of clothing is also a big expense. Although the Zhu family is rich, they will not let her be unrestrained, so her hands are also very tight.
Zhang Hanqing smiled: "It doesn't matter, it's not enough once, it can be staged, or it won't be long before it will be born again." If you want, I can give it to you every day. "Teasing a woman from a good family in front of her is very cool. These words are all classic words from later generations, and the good student Zhu Songyun must not understand. So looking at her smile between her eyebrows, there was an indescribable coolness in her heart.
Zhu Songyun laughed and said: "What do you think, you still use it for me every day..."Seeing Zhang Hanqing's face of being undeceitful, young and old, full of spring smiles, I didn't think of anything, and suddenly turned red, and said in a couped voice: "You dare to trick me..."
Oh no, you can understand such a vague word? Zhang Hanqing was shocked, but shrugged innocently and spread his hands to her. Zhu Songyun turned his face away and ignored him.
Zhu Qichao was photographed in public, and his good impression of Zhang Hanqing suddenly increased, and he was also happy to see the interaction of his juniors, so he had a happy attitude towards their whispers. Zhang Hanqing talked to her with a smile, but her daughter turned her face and ignored Zhang Hanqing, thinking that she was angry for not giving gifts. He smiled and said: "It's no wonder Han Qing, it's you who didn't tell him, and it's reasonable not to be prepared." ”
Zhang Hanqing decided to remedy it, and he wanted to come up with a killer weapon.
"I really have an idea to ask Shibo to decide, if I can succeed, I can give up a certain percentage of the shares, which can be regarded as a birthday gift for the third sister." Zhang Hanqing pretended to be provoked, but in fact, his biggest purpose today was to say this.
Zhu Qichao smiled, the bickering between his children would not let his identification with Zhang Hanqing weaken easily. "Anyway, it's a family dinner, so it's okay to say anything straight."
Zhang Hanqing can finally speak on the idea of the first pot of gold in his life.
"Shibo, there are a lot of resources outside the Guan, but the development efforts are not enough. If, this is also what my father meant, let's set up several relatively large companies to jointly develop coal mines or iron mines, and our future achievements will be no less than those of Hanyeping or Kailuan Coal Mine. It is a win-win good thing that we can not only profit from it, but also provide energy for the country's industrial development. This matter involves a lot, and if there is no connection with Shibo, it will definitely not be smooth to operate. ”
He is very good at tricking, and even uses "we", but Zhu Qichao, who was immersed in thinking, didn't hear it.
The stakes are huge, and mining is not something that can be done in a few words or three dollars or two dates, and it involves a lack of capital, technology, and talent. What's more, Kanwai is something that the Japanese covet, and the Japanese are fighting for food in their mouths, and even if he is the chief of internal affairs, he must weigh one or two. This has nothing to do with patriotism, but is linked to the strength of the country.
However, this also aroused his concept of rejuvenating the country through industry. As a page that cannot be turned in modern times, the industrial salvation and Westernization movement are the directions that he has been tirelessly exploring. Although the construction of mining has the difficulties of large capital investment and high technical requirements, it is a long-term way for the country to progress. Zhang Zuolin, who is in the northeast corner, can have this kind of insight, which is a blessing for the country.
At this time, he thought that this was just Zhang Zuolin's meaning, because Zhang Hanqing also pretended to be his father's intention. He was the Minister of Internal Affairs, and he had always supported the establishment of industries. It doesn't matter if Zhang Hanqing lets him be named, as long as he doesn't pay for it---- the large amount of financial resources of 100,000 million is far beyond his ability, and it is better to say if it is a public release.
"This is a good thing, let me think about Zhou Xiang and then say, after all, building a mine is not a trivial matter. However, if Brother Yuting is interested, I can first introduce a few insiders to the industry, they are a leader. ”
In Zhang Hanqing's plan, he didn't want Zhu Qichao to agree, he just wanted to use his connections---- but he didn't need it. In his plan, Zhang Hanqing only needs to hang his name, and even as long as he has no objection when he is mentioned.
"Of course, this idea may be too abrupt, and the little nephew will find another time to come to the door and ask Shibo for advice."
Zhu Guangmu still admires Zhang Hanqing's eyes as the dignified chief of internal affairs so easily. He is like Liu Bang, the rogue emperor who used blank checks for tens of thousands of dollars when he attended the birthday banquet of his future father-in-law in history.
After three rounds of wine, the real feast begins. Not to mention the deliciousness, just the bowls, plates, plates, ivory chopsticks printed with "longevity without borders" make people feel exquisite and elegant, antique and antique at a glance. Celebrating her birthday here, Miss Zhu San's petty bourgeois sentiment is still quite high.
It is said that Zhimeizhai was originally a Gusu restaurant, and at the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, it was resold to the Li, Yang, and Zhang families. Each of these three people has a good skill in making lo-mei dishes, and through their efforts, the Shandong flavor of Zhimeizhai is the best. In the early years of the Republic of China, Wang Dongnan, a native of Shandong, served as the manager of Zhimeizhai, which made Zhimeizhai reach its heyday, and the number of clerks increased from more than a dozen to more than 100.
Of course, the expansion of the noodles is premised on the exquisiteness of the dishes. In Beijing, at the foot of the Son of Heaven, there are elite talents from all over the country, and it is impossible to become a time-honored brand here without some special skills. Zhimeizhai is truly elegant and easy to appreciate, not only the common people like this mouthful, but also the princes and nobles, literati and ink writers also favor these foods. Celebrities such as Manchu imperial relatives, important members of the Republic of China, and masters of the art garden have become frequent visitors here. It is said that Lu Xun, Lao She, Liang Shiqiu, Cheng Yanqiu, and Xun Huisheng were all frequent visitors to Qianmen.
Although he has eaten countless banquets in later generations, Zhang Hanqing always thinks that this time he has eaten in Zhimeizhai is the best. In this life, although he is the son of General Fengtian, he rarely has the opportunity to eat such authentic Lu cuisine. Therefore, it is inevitable that the eating appearance is somewhat unusual, although he has restrained a lot.
The informal Zhu Qichao would not care about such a trivial matter, and he admired Zhang Hanqing, who was too young to speak, to be able to grasp such a big thing as Zhang Zuolin was used by Zhang Zuolin to "participate". Zhang Hanqing's impromptu cake, of course, couldn't hide it from him, but he still appreciated Zhang Hanqing's quick reaction and proper response, no wonder Jiang and Cai both admired him. He looked at one of the people in the seat, and suddenly said to Zhang Hanqing: "Hanqing, there is no shortage of young talents in the audience today, and I will introduce one person to meet you." ”
