Chapter 53: Zhao Zilong
Subtitle of this chapter: Singing big dramas also talks about PC!
"What is the use of this Hundred-year-old Mountain and Yuan Er to our American Anliangtang?"
"Lady, you can't say that. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoThis kind of small mountain hall is really useless, but Yuan Yanqian is a ......" Hongqi Lao Wu didn't continue, he sighed and changed the topic, "Hey...... The big guy came with a letter from China last month. The situation in the country is not optimistic......"
Li Jie, who turned from an underworld boss to a professional revolutionary in an instant, said worriedly: "Mr. Zhongshan is asking for money again." ”
In 1920, Ironfist Invincible had not yet found Maozi's way, and he would not begin formal contact with the Comintern until July of next year. In this troubled world now, there is no money bag and gun, even if he really has a pair of invincible iron fists, he can't speak. Otherwise, how could he go to Shanghai to open a trust company with Mr. Yuan?
Looking at historical figures should still be as objective as possible, although there are too many broken things in the life of this benevolent brother who wears Lin Bei's legs, let alone a mustache, even if you want to learn from Mussolini, you can't learn from a dictator. However, it is not surprising that in 1920-1921 he joined the stock market in part to finance the revolutionary cause. Of course, his old man failed to speculate in stocks in the end and almost jumped into the Huangpu River......
And the relationship between the overseas Hongmen and the invincible iron fist is needless to say, and anyone who knows a little bit about history knows it. This time, Shuanghua Sun Hongbang met Situ Longtou, who returned to China, so he naturally raised money from this loyal revolutionary comrade and Hongmen bigwig.
Mrs. Li hesitated for a moment and asked, "Originally, I shouldn't have asked more about this woman, but didn't Citigroup make a lot of money from this alcohol ban?" ”
The series of historical events that occurred after the filing of the Prohibition Act in the United States from the filing to the repeal are really very black humorous, and can be called a "black human comedy". It could even be said that Prohibition reshaped the United States of America from a quasi-religious state with a strong puritan connotation to a truly secular state.
Prohibition had many side effects that the advocates had come up with, one of which was that it opened up a lot of money for all sorts of vibrant social groups in the United States. Illegal organizations based primarily on ethnic segregation have filled the channels for the manufacture, sale, and transportation of alcohol that were once legal. As the largest gang among the Chinese in the United States, the Hongmen of the United States and its largest cousin, An Liangtang, naturally also got a piece of the pie.
"Lady, I'm just worried about this matter."
"An Liangtang makes money, are you still upset about the fifth red flag?"
"Lady, lady, haven't you figured out what happened in our family yet? And have you forgotten the plagued Chinese Exclusion Act? ”
"Our family was indeed harmed by the collusion between the dog officials and the inferior gentry. But...... What does this "Chinese Exclusion Act" have to do with making money, and that Yuan Er? ”
The fifth brother of Hongqi sighed in his heart, women are people with long hair and short knowledge, and even "women heroes" like their wives are not exempt from vulgarity.
Of course, he didn't dare to say this verbally, so he had to patiently explain it to his wife.
Part of the reason why Li Jie helped Yuan Yanqian was indeed out of "the righteousness of the same family". He really can't help this, the Hong family brothers begged for their heads in front of everyone, but they didn't necessarily have to push four, five or six, isn't this smashing their own brands, how can he be the fifth red flag in the future?
Another part of the reason is that Yuan Shengxian is still a "genuine" NYU Ph.D. student in economics. A high-level intellectual like Li Jie immediately realized that a high-level intellectual like Yuan Yanqian was exactly what An Liangtang needed at the moment...... Intellectuals.
There is a saying that if you are not afraid of hooligans who can do martial arts, you are afraid that hooligans are educated.
"The ...... of the house So you talked about it for a long time, but in fact, it means that you don't understand what this Yuan Er can do for our An Liangtang? ”
"Hey, you old lady really has long hair and short knowledge, why don't you understand after I talked for a long time......"
"Who are you talking old girl? Who do you say has long hair and short knowledge? You make it clear to me! You're itchy again, aren't you?! ”
"Good men don't fight with women, if I didn't let you. With your three-legged cat's dark green technique, how can you still get a Yanqing boxing master like me...... Go to the ball! I said can you talk properly, what kind of thing are you pulling out the gun? ”
Our Master Yuan naturally didn't know the calculations of the fifth Hongqi and didn't know the means of the fourth Jinfeng, so he took the two Hongmen brothers who were moving boxes and a "consultant", and came to a vacant guest room in Anliang Hall in a hurry.
"Second master, you look so handsome, you are a Changshan Zhao Zilong! Looking at your figure, the second master is also a ticket holder in China, right? ”
It is said that Yuan Erye's fame in Chinatown has been getting bigger and bigger recently, and his single-handedly going to the meeting for a foreigner has become a popular "good story". The "costume consultant" he specially invited also came up to make fun, in fact, this consultant himself is a martial artist who sings Cantonese opera in Chinatown. There is no way, the outfit he borrowed is a set of "martial arts clothes", which is very complicated to wear, and Yuan Yanqian will definitely not be able to handle it alone.
Our Master Yuan was also very satisfied with the mirror self-portrait, and said modestly while posing for POSE: "I have won awards." What ticket friends are not ticket friends, I am just singing blindly. ”
The Cantonese opera is worthy of being the most elaborate of all Chinese dramas, and this set of dragon robes and white sets of dragon robes is of high quality workmanship and exquisite embroidery, which can be regarded as a handicraft.
Their old Yuan family does have a tradition of being a fan of Kunqu Opera and Peking Opera, but it's a pity that in his generation, it's really hard to say whether this tradition can continue. However, didn't Yuan Yanqian wear it back, and naturally wanted to popularize what is called "Chinese-Opera" to the American people.
Also, not to mention that the broken system isn't useless, the "Hedonistic Desire/Demon Kiss" card really works. Although the two abilities you know +1 (equivalent to +3 for another you know) and +1 for rope skill (equivalent to binding +3) have not yet been confirmed, +1 for disguise (equivalent to +3 for performance) does work. After Yuan Yanqian put on the outfit, there was naturally a little bit of flavor between her gestures.
The consultant asked with great interest, "Are you old in Pi Huang or Kun dialect?" ”
Yuan Shengxian, a hundred-year-old mountain, had a straight face, turned his head and replied: "Our Hong family brothers don't sing Kunqu opera and sing big operas, how can we sing such a nonsense tune as Pi Huang?" ”
In fact, Pi Huang, also known as Peking Opera, is a "hybrid" of Kunqu Opera and Manchurian Minor, and for a "loyal" Hongmen disciple like Yuan Yanqi, whether or not to sing Pi Huang is entirely a matter of political correctness.
When Mr. Consultant heard this, he immediately stood in awe and said, "Second Master, you are right!" ”
