Chapter 6: A New Era
Subtitle of this chapter: If you can't copy it, you can't copy it, and you can't copy it, and you can't have a number!
"Jingle bell!"
Hearing the doorbell ringing, the coffee shop owner, who was reading the newspaper with his head down, raised his head and said very naturally, "Good morning, Mr. Yuan." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoIsn't it still the same today? By the way, you haven't seen the news, this is really ......"
"Hmm. This is really unfortunate. Yuan Yanqian took off his hat and hung it on the coat rack at the door, and after a few casual words, he sat down in the old position in front of the window, spread out the newspaper and read it.
The blue sky suddenly darkened, and suddenly a terrible lightning bolt appeared, and the busiest corner of the American financial center was instantly turned into a ruin, and hundreds of people were seriously injured and dying. The people present turned pale with fright, and felt inexplicable fear in their hearts......"
"Looking down on Wall Street from above, I saw a yellow-green mushroom cloud slowly rising between the U.S. Treasury branch and Morgan & Co., rising to a height of 100 feet, and the air was filled with choking soot......"
"According to the latest news of this newspaper, 39 respected New Yorkers have been confirmed to have died in this despicable murder, and the number of injured people has not yet been counted, at least more than 300 people. According to the people involved, the bomb attack caused $2 million in damages...... At the time of writing, no one had claimed responsibility for the attack. ”
"News from the New York Stock Exchange: Despite the threat of violence, the stock market opens as usual today......"
The city government said the NYPD is fully committed to protecting the safety of its citizens. There will be no curfew and mandatory furlough, calling on New Yorkers to provide clues to the police......"
Author's note: To this day, traces of the explosion can still be seen on the walls of the 23 Wall Street building.
Could it be that there really was such a bombing/bombing on Wall Street in 1920?!
Puzzled, Yuan Yanqian put down the newspaper and picked up a slice of toast and stuffed it into his mouth, and at this time the coffee shop owner put on the record, and he listened for a while and realized that it was the second national anthem of the United States of America (author's note: the American national anthem is actually "The Star-Spangled Banner March"). )。
Oh, say-can-you-see? )
By-the-dawn's-early-light,
What-so-proudly-we-hailed-at-the-twilight's-last-gleaming? )
Yuan Yanqian frowned and turned his head to look at the street, and the images he had seen from the movies before appeared in his eyes very really......
And on Wall Street outside his sight, with the melodious music played by the transverse flute, thousands of people also sang "The Star-Spangled Banner Never Falls" in unison.
Oh,say-does-that-star-spangled-banner-yet-wave。 (Look at the Star-Spangled Banner, isn't it still flying high.) )
O'er-the-land-of-the-free-and-the-home-of-the-brave? )
They believed that the attack was nothing more than a futile revolt of the anarchists. They also believed that the factories would be busy, the farmlands would be harvested every year, the stock market would soar, the United States would prosper forever, and that the people of the land would be welcomed to heaven by the Messiah for true eternal life after a happy and pious life. Because this is their Promised Land, because this is their city on the hill, because this is their chosen nation.
The loud bang on Wall Street on September 16, 1920, like the gong announcing the beginning of the show, officially marked the beginning of the "Roaring-Twenties" in the United States, and our Master Yuan will also try his first cry in New York, the heart of the capitalist world......
"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"
"Brother Hong, you better smoke less."
Xu Zhimo looked at the life-saving benefactor lying on the sofa on all fours, like a steam locomotive, constantly swallowing clouds and spitting fog, and felt very guilty in his heart (or the third sound).
Senior Yuan actually made this way in order to save himself, and he didn't even bother to say anything after meeting this afternoon, he just babbled a few words to deal with himself, and other than that, he smoked. It seems that the brain is really bad.
He thought for a moment, picked up his clothes, turned and walked out the door. After about an hour, he walked in again with a foreign doctor, but this time it was not the one who didn't speak English very well last time. It seems that Xu Zhimo also thinks that the doctor is English...... Well, the medical skills are not very skilled.
And the newcomer Yang doctor looked up and down, knocked left and right, and listened, and after dutifully checking Yuan Yanqi's whole body, he said to Xu Zhimo suspiciously: "This gentleman is fine, it may be that he is overly frightened." In this case, I will give him a dose of tranquilizer, drink it and get some sleep. ”
As he spoke, he opened the silver leather medicine box he was carrying, and took out some bottles and cans from it and began to dispense.
Xu Zhimo said in a good voice: "Brother Hongji, come and drink medicine." ”
Ge You was paralyzed and Yuan Yan waved his hand impatiently: "I don't want to drink this kind of bitter thing." ”
Xu Zhimo said to the doctor: "It's upside down." ”
Then he whispered to Yuan Yanqian: "If you drink it, it will be completely fine." ”
As he spoke, he took the measuring cup from the doctor's hand and prepared to hand it over to Yuan Yanqian himself.
And his senior Yuan helplessly pointed to the table next to him and said, "Okay, let's put it here first." ”
Xu Zhimo stubbornly said, "No." You'd better drink it now. ”
Yuan Yan said angrily: "Yu Sen, you take it away......"
At this moment, the Master Ball System, which was invisible to the other two except him, suddenly began to flash with a bright red and green light, and at the same time emitted a piercing alarm sound: "Doodoo." The host has plagiarized the behavior of the data that is not within the authority, and it has exceeded two crosses, please stop immediately! ”
"Toot toot. The host immediately stops plagiarism, otherwise it will be directly erased! ”
Yuan Yanqian, who felt innocent, opened his eyes wide, and asked angrily in his heart: "Master Ball, you can tell me clearly, if I copy something, I will stop it immediately and be directly wiped out???!!! ”
"Thunderstorm."
"Thunder, thunder, thunderstorm...... It's that "Thunderstorm...... By the way, what is the number of the master ball? ”
"The number is...... This system is not responsible for leading the way to send seeds, please respect the host! ”
No wonder what I said just now was so slippery, it turned out to be a reversal of Mrs. Zhou, the heroine of "Thunderstorm......
In the end, Yuan Yanqi, who didn't find the number and was worried about being wiped out, drank all the medicine in a daze.
