During the Republic of China, Chinese men with a bit of status did not wear suits like in TV dramas, and most of them wore Mao suits on formal occasions in order to show patriotism.

At that time, the people's consciousness was to wear Wang cloth (domestic homespun cloth) to symbolize patriotism, and wearing a suit was a cultural betrayal, the most representative of which was the Blue Coat Society, whose members must use domestic products everywhere and wear Mao suits to attend formal activities.

It was precisely for this reason that Qi Rui and the others wore Mao suits before, but today Qi Rui went to the ready-to-wear store to buy a suit and changed it on his body, and chose a top hat to wear.

"Brother Qi! You're so handsome in a suit! "How does Long Lan look at Qi Rui now, this is the first time she has this feeling for a man.

"You need to change into a nice dress, too! That's how it works with me! Qi Rui said and helped Long Lan get a few sets of dresses for her to try on.

Qi Rui took some cash from Shen Hui, so this was the first time he bought something for Long Lan, and the girl who was already in love with him accepted it gladly.

If people who know Long Lan see her expression when she tries on new clothes now, they will be very surprised, because she rarely dresses herself in ordinary times, and the saying that women are pleasing to themselves is really true!

The two of them who changed into dresses came to the Paramount Song and Dance Hall, and Long Lan had been here, but he had never used the peerless face of the deity.

These two entered the dance hall and attracted almost everyone's attention, because the man was super handsome and the woman was too beautiful, and they were really the envy of the fairy couple.

The Paramount Song and Dance Hall still belongs to Huang Jinrong, and the waiters have never seen Qi Rui and Long Lan, but from the perspective of clothing and temperament, they know that they are not ordinary people, so they immediately came over to greet them and help them store their hats and coats.

At this time, the singers and dancers on the stage were all girls dressed in relatively sexy clothes, and the singer sang the song "Tianya Singer", which was also familiar to Qi Rui, which was the theme song of the movie "Angel on the Road" that had just been released, and it was very popular at that time.

Qi Rui always smiled and showed that it was easy to approach, Long Lan had always been cold, and now it was the same, which further set off her nobility.

Qi Rui is a modern person has a misunderstanding about the dance halls of this era, that is, they think that Paramount is a relatively famous dance hall in Shanghai, and it will be a place where intelligence and arms dealers gather.

When he looked around, he found that it was not what he thought, almost all of them were Chinese, and the band playing on stage was also a Chinese band.

After finding a place to sit down, Qi Rui asked Long Lan in a low voice: "Long Lan, why are there so few foreigners in this dance hall?" ”

"You're looking for a foreigner?" Long Lan asked,

"Yes! Especially in Europe and the United States. ”

"None of them will come here!"

"And where will they be?"

"Brother Qi, what you said are high-end hotels and dance halls, that kind of dance halls only accept foreigners and rich and status Chinese, and this Paramount is opened by Chinese, as long as you dress appropriately, you can play all night when you come in and ask for a cup of tea." Long Lan only thought it was Qi Rui's first time in Shanghai and explained,

Qi Rui was a look of regret: "So that's the case!" ”

"I'll take you if you want to go! I thought you were coming to see your own property! ”

"Forget it today! Let's sit and see before we go! Qi Rui saw that the time was not early and said,

"Brother Qi, what are you looking for foreigners?"

"I'd like to get to know some intelligence dealers and arms dealers!" Qi Rui has always shown great trust in Long Lan,

"Oh! Those frequented places are the Chinachem (MAO) Hotel and the Majestic Hotel! In addition, they also like to go to the more lively Xianle Dance Palace. ”

"Aren't you talking about hotels?"

"Haha, Brother Qi, you don't know, these hotels are very well equipped, and the dance palace inside can accommodate thousands of people! Principal Jiang and Song Meiling held their wedding at the Majestic Hotel! Long Lan explained to Qi Rui with a smile, it is even more beautiful.

Qi Rui was about to continue asking Long Lan when he saw a young man in a white suit surrounded by six people and walked to their table.

Seeing this young man's hippie smiling face staring at Long Lan, Qi Rui knew that this was going to stage another 10,000-year-old stalk.

"Miss! I haven't seen you before! As he spoke, the young man sat down next to Long Lan, leaned back the chair to her side, and then shook his head in a particularly exaggerated manner, almost sticking to Long Lan's body, sniffed it and exclaimed, "It's so fragrant!" This should be a woman's unique body fragrance, which smells much better than those pungent perfumes! ”

Because this dance hall will be Qi Rui's in the future, she doesn't know if beating people now will hurt him, so she pouted and looked at Qi Rui with a look of grievance, what she wanted to see was that Qi Rui taught these nasty men a lesson for her.

Qi Rui thought that Long Lan would not be able to help herself, but when she looked at her pitifully, she said in her heart: With her ability, she should be able to knock these people down by stretching out her hand casually, but this stinky girl is not going to let me stage a heroic beauty play! Since she wants to see it, then she has her heart!

Qi Rui pointed at the young man with an angry face and asked, "What are you doing!?" ”

"Little white face! Now there's nothing to do with you here! Get out of here! A strong man beside the young man said viciously,

"Who are you?" Qi Rui deliberately pretended to be a little frightened and asked,

"Don't you even know us Huang Shao!"

"Who is Huang Shao?"

"It's your ancestor! Don't talk nonsense, get out! The strong man roared even more arrogantly,

At this time, many people dancing on the dance floor all stopped to look at this side, so that these people were even more arrogant.

"Don't roll out yet! Don't let you be thrown out! The strong man continued to yell at Qi Rui,

"Hey! No matter what dynasty, generation, or place, there are idiots like you! Then I would like to thank you in advance for giving me the opportunity to perform in front of beautiful women! Qi Rui originally thought that he would get into contact with intelligence dealers and arms dealers when he got Paramount, but he ran into hooligans, and he was not happy in his heart, so he just took their anger out on them.

"What did you say!?"

"I said you get out of here!" Qi Rui stood up, Yang hand was a big slap in Huang Shao's face, this slap he used eighty percent of his strength, directly knocked down his four back molars, and the blood in his mouth almost spurted out.

The young man fell six or seven meters sideways, and the floor was slippery, so he crashed headlong into a round table and passed out.

"You dare to beat us Huang Shao! Brothers! Copy the guy and give it to me! ”

At this time, the people on the dance floor didn't dance and returned to their own actions to watch the excitement, the singer had already changed the popular song "Drizzle", and it should be commonplace to see fights here and continue to sing.

Qi Rui came to the center of the dance floor with a wine glass in his right hand, and the six thugs also picked up the wine bottle in their hands at this time, and the chair legs were used as weapons to surround Qi Rui in the middle.

PS: (Many anti-Japanese dramas no matter what year or month they appear in the dance hall, the singers on stage sing either "Night Shanghai" or "Night Fragrance", in fact, "Night Shanghai" was only released in 1947, and "Night Fragrance" was only released in 1944.) ）
