Chapter subtitle: Master Jin Dog

……………………

Miss Wei Mingzhu sent a telegram to her fiancé not only to report his safety, but also to urge him to hurry to Semarang to meet his relatives.

Our Master Yuan now plans to go to Europe after completing the first system task in June, and then go to Nanyang to pick up his wife and go back to Shanghai to complete the marriage.

"Woo Woo ......"

At that moment, two servants led several dogs past them.

Ms. Huang Huilan is a well-known dog lover, and later raised more than 20 famous dogs and expensive dogs at the peak of Beijing, and there were four special servants to take care of these Wang Xingren.

As the saying goes, it is better to be a wealthy dog than a poor family. Honestly.

Yuan Yanqian couldn't help but move when she looked at these lively dogs...... Don't get me wrong, he didn't suddenly want to eat dog meat, but he thought of something.

"Wait a minute!" He suddenly raised his voice to stop these Wang Xingren and took a serious look.

Then Master Yuan pointed to a white Shih Tzu, turned his head and said, "This dog is good!" Huilan, are you willing to cut your love? ”

Mrs. Gu chuckled and said, "Since you like it, I'll give it to you." ”

"Not for me." Yuan Yanqian shook his head and said, "It's for ......."

As we all know, Americans in a hundred years are crazy about dogs, but in fact, Americans in a hundred years ago are not far behind.

So much so that there are only three presidents in history who have not kept pet dogs in the White House. And the other US imperialist commanders and their families are dog lovers, at least on the surface.

These pet dogs have the nickname "First Dog in the White House".

During a visit in 1944, the savior of the free world accidentally left his dog, "Farah," on the Aleutian Islands in Alaska. In order to retrieve his dog, he even ordered a destroyer to be sent to rescue "Farah". And this kind of thing that will be sprayed to death by the masses of the people in a certain big country in the East is actually a legend that the American people talk about.

However, the most famous White House dog in history is President Harding's "Little Fello", an Ayr Valley dog, also known as a bristle mongrel.

How famous is this "young man"? The Washington Post and the New York Times, one of the four major newspapers in the United States, wrote a story about the dog almost every day in the months after Harding took office.

Two days later, on March 5, the New York Times will have this report: "The president took great pleasure in bringing his pet into the office, and he made it his home." ”

Over the next 39 days, the following headlines will appear on the "Grey Lady":

"Ayr Valley Dog Becomes Mascot"

"Lad, newsmaker"

"Caught the White House Cat Up to the Tree"

"The boy has a playmate"

Well, Master Yuan doesn't know how to complain about this kind of thing.

The Hardings treated it like their own children...... Well, the couple is also very much in the blowing of the squirt. The husband has at least one illegitimate daughter, and the wife had an illegitimate child before they got married, but neither of them has children.

Yuan Yanqian said seriously: "Brother Shaochuan, I heard that the Harding couple are dog lovers like his wife. It would be fitting to give them this dog as a testimony to the friendship between China and the United States. ”

"A dog as a gift?" Gu Weijun was stunned when he heard this.

Our Master Yuan said as a matter of course: "Yes, Abe Jininu...... Well, there's a precedent for sending a dog to a head of state anyway. ”

"Hong Gradual, is there really one?" Gu Da Diplomat pondered for a long time but didn't come up with it.

"Yes, definitely." Yuan Yanqian nodded again and said, "Brother Shaochuan, those cousins, cousins, kings and queens in Europe must have sent dogs to each other." ”

He pointed to Huang Huilan and said, "Besides, can it be given to the first lady in the name of the minister's wife?" Maybe you'll make friends. ”

Anyway, her husband is cheating now, and your husband will cheat in the future, so it's not bad for you two dog-loving ladies to make friends first.

Mrs. Gu is also a showy person, so her eyes lit up, and she immediately nodded: "This idea is really excellent." ”

She turned her head to her husband and said greasyly, "Weijun, what do you say?" ”

Although the newlywed wives were so coquettish in public, Gu Weijun shook his head after a moment of silence and said, "In my opinion, this matter is insulting to the country. Besides, we are going to London soon, and even if we want to send it, we have to let Mrs. Shi deliver it......"

Master Yuan's eyes rolled and said, "Since Brother Shaochuan thinks it's inappropriate, then let me send it to Junior Brother." Anyway, I'm not a diplomat of the Republic of China, and being rejected by them only hurts my face, and there is nothing else to lose. ”

"It's okay......" Huang Huilan sighed and said sullenly, "Then I'll hand over Huahua to you." ”

After this vignette, the four of them entered the restaurant and began to eat, of course, it was Chinese food.

At the dinner table, the four of them chatted about relatively light topics. After eating, Yuan Yanqian and Meng Xiancheng walked into the study with Gu Weijun.

According to Master Yuan's understanding of history, the Shandong issue really has to be discussed with the current minister to Britain.

In the original timeline, China's main members of the Washington conference were Wang Chonghui, Gu Weijun and Shi Zhaoji.

Wang Chonghui, whose name is Liangchou, was born in Hong Kong in 1881, and his ancestral home is Dongguan County, Guangdong. There are striking similarities between his and Gu Weijun's academic and political experiences: they were both born in the turbulent autumn of the late 19th century; At an early age, they received a formal Western-style education while receiving traditional Chinese cultural education. Both received their Ph.D. degrees in the United States.

After the outbreak of the Xinhai Revolution, he returned to China one after another to engage in politics. They are in the middle of the political center and the periphery of the political structure of the Republic of China, and they are indispensable operators of practical government affairs. In their public and private interactions, the two formed a friendship for nearly 50 years.

Before the meeting, they and Shi Zhaoji made careful arrangements and division of labor, assigning their respective tasks according to their personal interests and expertise.

Shi Zhaoji was responsible for the withdrawal of troops, the abolition and transfer of foreign post offices; Wang Chonghui was responsible for issues related to his legal expertise, such as the resumption of foreign concessions, the abolition of consular jurisdiction, and the abolition of Article 21; Gu Weijun was in charge of the issue of leased land, sphere of influence, tariffs, the abolition or amendment of unequal treaties, and the Shandong issue.

After Lu Zhengxiang, the head of the delegation to the Paris Peace Conference, fell ill, Gu Weijun was essentially the chief representative of the Republic of China. Therefore, the clause of the Treaty of Versailles on the Shandong issue was the greatest shame of his career.

Of course, he was bent on washing away such a shame, and now the opportunity did appear. 10
