Chapter 15: The Night in Shanghai Is Ecstatic (2)
Shanghai in the first half of the night did not fall as silent as I imagined.
It's still busy and noisy. Red men and green women are rubbing shoulders one after another, and the nightlife of Shanghai has just begun! ------
In the darkness of night, the dim street lamps and the glowing red lights of the dance hall and nightclub complement each other. On the contrary, it shows a kind of hazy and bizarre prosperity.
Sitting on the rickshaw bound for Hongkou District, I watched the lights of old Shanghai at night.
From the Sassoon Hotel, where I stayed, to the Miki Brewery in the Japanese residential area of Hongkou District, it was about 4 kilometers. The rickshaw took me 20 minutes to get to my destination.
I found a remote no-no corner near Miki Sake House and dodged into the space.
In the space, he changed into the Japanese kimono he had prepared earlier, and quickly flashed out again. Seeing that there was no one outside the space, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Although I'm not afraid that the Japanese will see it here, it's a big deal to kill people and kill people. I don't have any burden on killing the Japanese of this era!
But the existence of space is better known to me. If there are more people who see it, it will inevitably spread out, which is not good. Although I am ready to kill one by one, but what if! What if I miss it!? So, until you fully grasp all the functions of the space, it is better to be careful and secure!
"Welcome! ~~~”
Pushing open the Japanese-style wooden door of Miki Pub, a Japanese female voice greeted me warmly.
"Excuse me!"
Speaking in an authentic Japanese Tokyo accent, I dragged my clogs and walked into the tavern in a big way. (I'm more Japanese than Japanese now!) )
It's a small sake brewhouse. It seems that all the people who come in and out here are some low-class Japanese people and scattered Japanese ronin. I chose a stool in front of the Japanese kitchen counter and sat on it because I wanted to ask my boss for news.
In the corner of the sake house, there are a few Japanese escort singers with pale faces.
"Hello! What do you want to eat, sir? The middle-aged boss and chef with a menstrual belt wrapped around his head asked enthusiastically.
"A pan-fried herring, a takoyaki noodle ball, and a bottle of Nagoya's sake." I replied casually.
"Okay, please wait! Right away! ~~~" The boss was busy with the dishes in his hand and chatted with me: "Mr. looks very strange!" You don't live nearby! ”
"Yes, I just came out of the country! I just arrived in Shanghai yesterday. ”
"Oh! I said how come I haven't seen sir! How did the gentleman know about my sake brewery? "The boss meant that I was a rich man when I saw me, how could I come to his low-end wine house.
"Oh! Excuse me! I'm here to find someone. My friend said that the person I was looking for frequented you. ”
"Roar! Now I understand! What is the name of the person you are looking for? ”
"Taro Kato"
"Kato-kun? ~~~Yes! Kato-kun is a regular customer, so I come for a drink every day! However, he came late every day. Are you friends? Hearing this, I breathed a sigh of relief, and finally found the right target.
"Not really! I was only entrusted by his family to inform him to return home as soon as possible, and his father was critically ill. Since I didn't know his address, I couldn't send a telegram. ”
(The reason why I say this is that I want the people at the tavern to spread the news that Taro Kato is going to return to Japan.) Even if the Japanese in Shanghai, who were familiar with him, found out that he was gone, they would only think that he had returned to China. )
"Kato-kun is really unlucky! He had just found a stable job. Why don't I let Miyoko take you to his residence? He lives at the end of the street, very close ~~~ "The owner is very welcoming and anxious. I'm ~~~, hehe~~
"Thank you so much! I'm sorry for the trouble! This is the money for food and wine. ”
I hurriedly got up and took out my yen to pay the bill. Such an enthusiastic boss can't be polite, so I hit the snake with the stick, and pushed the boat down the river so that the boss can't regret it.
When he came to Taro Kato's residence, he saw that the lights were already on in the house, so he thanked the Japanese woman who led the way. When he saw her go away, he went up and knocked on the door.
"Kato-kun, Kato-kun! ~~~" After a while, the door was pulled open from the inside.
"Who are you? ~~~" A young Japanese man asked, revealing half of his body and puzzled.
"I just came from China, and I brought news from your family, let's go in and talk!" Without saying a word, he squeezed into the room and closed the door with his hand.
"What's my ------" Before he could finish speaking, I directly touched his body and made him disappear. It's all in the house, how can you still have the kung fu to be blind to the ink, just throw it into the space as fertilizer.
Then there was another detective-style cleaning of the house, and after the final cleanup, he looked at the 130 yen in his hand that was not thrown into the space, and pouted~ "A poor ghost!" "Slip it into your pocket.
Then I looked at the time, and it was just over 23 o'clock. Change your clothes from the space, calmly turn off the lights and go out.
Walking through the dimly lit streets of the old Hongkou district of Shanghai, the nightclubs on both sides are often filled with Japanese songs sung by singers. But what makes me even more speechless is that there is not a single rickshaw in the Japanese overseas Chinese area! ~~~ Fainted!
Alas! What a miscalculation! ~~~ There's no way to slip your legs! I stopped and went, trying to avoid staggering drunkards and hordes of Japanese ronin.
Finally, after leaving the Japanese residential area, he came across a rickshaw that was going home from work, and on the condition of adding money, the driver finally agreed to run again.
When we returned to the Sassoon Hotel, the hotel was still brightly lit, and the hotel's "Horse and Hound Bar" was filled with dynamic jazz music.
It gathers a large number of adventurers and politicians from the Western world who came to China to pan for gold, and the history of these people is accompanied by the blood and tears of the Chinese.
(And in modern times, there are still some Chinese people who sing praises to these cannibalistic capitalists?!) I'm the sun dog. Didn't these foreigners start out in the opium trade? Including the Sassoon family, his family has a large number of opium poppy plantations in India, and all the opium produced by it is sold to China~~~~~ and some people in modern times say that this dog is sunny, which promoted the urban construction of old Shanghai and developed China's trade with the world. If my killer robbed you of your money, and then, in honor of my great deeds in killing you, I built a landmark building in your place to commemorate myself, would you also thank me?!!! )
Alas! I don't want to, if I think about it anymore, I won't be able to sleep with a beautiful woman in my arms tonight. My third aunt is still waiting for me in the room! Hey!
After returning to the room, the third aunt hadn't slept yet, ho! It was quite lively in the living room.
I saw the three little girls and Xu Yating's two maids eating snacks with melon seeds, while the little tail Xu Yating tried on the clothes I customized for the third aunt in front of the third aunt, (it's just that the size is wrong, it looks funny!) )。 The third aunt, who was only wearing pajamas, was lazy and elegant, half-lying and leaning on the European-style sofa, expressing her evaluation of the little girl Xu Yating's try-on effect.
Two beauties, one big and one small, are beautiful against each other under the orange light!
"Second master! You're back! The third aunt saw me entering the house and quickly sat up.
"Miss Yating, isn't this dizzy and didn't eat dinner! Soon after you leave, you'll be fine again, come and get some snacks from me! (Li Yulan still understands, she didn't call Xu Yating her sister or anything, if this word reaches her mother, she will have to eat melons.) The identity is not equal, and it cannot be called. )
"Oh? Is the seasickness relieved? Some people get off the boat and have to wait for two or three days! Younger age is faster recovery! I coped casually.
"These clothes are not suitable for wearing. You're not yet grown! The flesh and bones are small and can't hold up. Let's swap it out! ”
"Who's smaller? I'm 17! The little girl immediately turned into a fried little wild cat.
"I look small!" I amused and glanced at her "airfield".
"You bully! ~~~" The little girl immediately quit.
"Okay, okay, when I'm done with these few days, I'll take you two to the most famous tailor shop in Shanghai to make clothes. In the past few days, you will have a good time with Sister Hua, visit Shanghai, visit department stores, and buy some things you like! I'll pay for the money! A strong flower! ~~~That's right! Sister Hua will pick you up tomorrow. ”
After saying that, I ignored the two of them and shouted at Vanilla:
"Vanilla! Put water on me, the second master I want to take a bath, and I was busy sweating for half the night. ~~~~”
"Second Young Master is here!" When I was at home, as long as I rested in the big room, it was herbs waiting for me to bathe.
Served by vanilla after bathing, (don't think about it~~~ There is no description of fragrant here, I don't want to think crookedly for a little girl who hasn't grown up yet, not to mention that it's a subordinate!) Are there fewer beauties in my house? Besides, the original owner is also the son of a big family, and he hasn't done it so much. It's just that the body of the inherited original owner, it's really not used to being served by no one. When I came out of the bathroom, the lights in the living room had been turned off and the symposium had dispersed.
Only the bedroom was lit by a dim bed lamp, and the dim fragrance ethereated with a seductive woman's ~~~~~~
The next day, Zhang Mazi, Chen Liuzi, and Sister Hua came to the hotel in a car, and Sister Hua came to pick up people. The two eldest brothers came to discuss things with me.
"Brother! You're still going to enjoy it! Zhang Mazi envied my life and said. "It's a soldier, and if you have money, you won't spend it!
"Brother Makino! You can't envy this! That's how I've come from a young age. Hehehe~~~~"
"That's it! The Zhang family in the capital, that's this~~~" Chen Liuzi said, giving a thumbs up.
"Sixth brother also knows my family?"
"Hey! I know what I am! I asked from a friend. Mr. Zhang Jushan, that is the five foreign ministers of the late Qing Dynasty, amazing, brother! You've got a good dad! ”
Dizzy~~~ Why does this sound so awkward! I don't fight Dad! ~~~
"That's it! Stop rambling. Let's go according to plan! Sixth brother, you are going to take this batch of cloth now, I estimate that you can get the lowest price, because Fujii, the biggest competitor, is gone, and the others are small households that can't afford to eat the whole batch, so you try to keep the price down.
Brother Muzhi, you will launch your relationship in Shanghai today, see where there is vacant land, let's buy it and build a garment factory, close to the wharf, convenient for transportation; There should be residents nearby, so let's recruit workers.
I'm just waiting for six news today, and I'll be notified as soon as you have a deal. I'm going to negotiate military orders with the British according to the reserve price, and our brothers will have a good disaster for the British this time. ”
"Good! That's it! ”
"Brother, just do as you say! Just look at the British to make our money, this time we also make British money! ”
The two agreed at the same time, and the three brothers looked at each other, and then at the same time, hahaha~~~ laughed and ~~~~~~
