Chapter 1 Shanghai Noon
Yan Buwen stood in the middle of the street, walking aimlessly, at this time, he felt like the little lizard in the movie "Lango" who had just turned out of the fish tank, he didn't know where he was, he didn't know what he was going to do, he didn't know where he was going.

From this moment on, it was as if he had been abandoned by the world, a strange place, a strange time, and a strange crowd around him.
It's out of place with him.
In 1926, in the 15th year of the Republic of China, Yan Buwen picked up a newspaper on the ground, and he still knew the traditional Chinese characters on it, and the two big characters on it were "Shanghai Daily".
The content was already unintentionally watching, Yan Buwen's hand slipped, the newspaper slipped from his hand, and then drifted to the other side of the street with the wind, and then was blown up by the wind, I don't know where it flew, Yan Buwen's eyes gradually lost their luster with the disappearance of the newspaper.
"Where the am I?"
Yan Buwen stood in front of a floor-to-ceiling window, the polished floor-to-ceiling window could reflect his entire body very clearly, Yan Buwen could clearly see that he was wearing a suit, and he deliberately combed his hairstyle.
The person is still the same person, but the place has changed.
Originally, I was going to attend my ex-girlfriend's wedding today and go out to drive in the morning, but unfortunately, there was a car accident, and my whole car ran into the belly of a big truck, and Yan Buwen clearly saw that his head was crooked, but now it seems that his head has nothing to do.
Is this Hengdian, Xiangshan Film and Television City? Are these people extras?
Yan Buwen looked around, surrounded by some Western-style buildings, Chinese and foreigners came and went on the street, and after a while, there were several beetle-like cars passing by the street, and some rickshaw drivers pulling people, plus the "Shanghai News" I saw before, Yan Buwen roughly understood that this was the Republic of China period.
But this is too real, these extras must have hundreds, and the crew is not bankrupt?
Yan Buwen's dress is very trendy, and from time to time someone has to look twice when someone walks next to him, but just look at it, in this era, you can understand what you wear, it is when Chinese and foreign ideas collide, you will become old-fashioned if you are not trendy.
"Uncle, I finally found you, hurry back, the lord and wife are looking for you, you said you didn't say anything when you went out." Just as Yan Buwen was walking endlessly on the street, a voice sounded.
Yan Buwen was wondering, and when he looked up, he found that there was a very beautiful little girl walking over in front of him, Yan Buwen pointed at himself and asked, "Are you talking to me?" β
The beautiful little girl burst out laughing: "Uncle, who are you talking to if you don't talk to you?" β
When Yan Buwen was thinking that this TV series was very realistic, the little girl stepped forward and pulled Yan Buwen forward.
Linked to the words "Shanghai News", the Republic of China, and the little girl also spoke the Shanghai dialect, Yan Buwen also responded in Shanghainese: "Do you recognize me? β
Shanghai, the city that he loves and hates, Yan Buwen went to Shanghai with his girlfriend Xia Dan after graduating from college, although he became a director at a young age, but they were still defeated by reality, two years later Xia Dan finally couldn't resist the ever-expanding money society, and agreed to the proposal of a president of the company, and he and Xia Dan also officially broke up.
Yesterday, Yan Buwen also received a wedding invitation from Xia Dan.
A faint sadness spread in Yan Buwen's heart, Xia Dan is called Xiao Zhang Magyu, you can imagine how beautiful Xia Dan is, Yan Buwen can chase Xia Dan with this kind of dick, and it can be regarded as a shit luck, and he is called a toad and eats swan meat.
Time is also fate, maybe I really don't deserve her.
"Uncle, how could I not know you, hurry up and go back." The little girl happily took Yan Buwen home.
But Yan Buwen was suddenly afraid in his heart, he couldn't be a liar, so he hurriedly wanted to leave, but was pushed into the house by the little girl.
Half a month later, Yan Buwen sat at the desk, looked at the moon flowers outside the window and sighed.
He finally knew that he had indeed crossed over, and traveled to the 15th year of the Republic of China, that is, in 1926 AD, a lot of major events happened in this year, such as Zhang Zuolin's independence of the three eastern provinces, the Northern Expedition, etc., as well as the turbulent situation in Shanghai, but these have little to do with Yan Buwen, Yan Buwen is just an ordinary boss's surname, living a civilian life in Shanghai, usually attending international student gatherings with nothing to do, and most of the time he still sits at his desk in a daze.
When Yan Buwen was in school, he also fantasized that if he traveled to this era, he would definitely establish a great career and become a great man, but staying for half a month made Yan Buwen feel how ridiculous his original idea was. It's the same as fantasizing about traveling to the nineties, and then definitely being able to succeed than Ma Yun and Ma Huateng, but then I found out that these people are all chosen people, and they are the only ones, and they can't be them even if they live again.
What Yan Buwen can do now is to settle his home in Shanghai, and when it is demolished in a few decades, his descendants will be able to earn tens of millions.
But what makes Yan Buwen happy is his current identity, in this life he is also called Yan Buwen, the word Wenxiu, now he is the son-in-law of a wealthy businessman in Shanghai, this rich businessman's surname is Chen, call him Mr. Chen, just call his wife Mrs. Chen, originally planned to get married when Yan Buwen returned from studying abroad this year, but I didn't expect that Miss Chen didn't wait for that time, and she died at the beginning of the year.
Yan Buwen also has to be grateful to his father-in-law, mother-in-law, they insisted on letting Yan Buwen study abroad for the sake of decency, and they also sponsored 20,000 yuan, which is converted into foreign exchange of about 1,300 pounds, so that he can marry the young lady after returning from school, and he will be overjoyed.
With this good thing delivered to the door, Yan Buwen was happy to go out and play for a few years.
As for himself, Yan Buwen, it is said that his father and his father-in-law Mr. Chen have a very good relationship, so he married his belly, and then Mr. Chen came to Shanghai to make a name for himself, but Yan Buwen's family declined because of business, and his old father and mother passed away one after another. Mr. Chen adhered to the principle of his own family and trustworthiness, so he asked Yan Buwen to come to his house and come to Shanghai to live a good life with Miss Chen.
Yan Buwen can only see what his fiancΓ©e looks like from the photos of his daughter left by his mother-in-law, after all, Yan Buwen is also a frustrated person in love, pick up a wife for nothing, don't do it in vain, after reading Yan Buwen, she sighed, Miss Chen is small and exquisite, it is indeed okay, and it is not bad to be a wife, but it is a pity that she died early.
The old father-in-law's mother-in-law sighed when she saw Yan Buwen, and only thought that Yan Buwen had deep feelings for Miss Chen, so she let Yan Buwen be in a daze during this time, and no one bothered him.
This made the old man's mother-in-law feel very gratified, and this uncle still had a little conscience.
Yan Buwen looked at the extremely prosperous Shanghai in the previous life, it was still very prosperous during the Republic of China, the streets were full of people coming and going, coupled with the explosion of ideas, the people here in Shanghai were more open than imagined, and from time to time you could see some fashionable young women walking around in more revealing clothes.
At least I have a place to live in Shanghai, and I don't need to rent a house, I have food and drink, which is not bad, and now the war has not affected Shanghai, Yan Buwen is comfortable to eat here and wait for death, plus there is still a little bit of study abroad funds left for him by his mother-in-law last time, and there is no problem in living freely.
"Don't smell it, are you still used to staying at home these days?" The old man asked at the dinner table.
Yan Buwen replied respectfully: "Very accustomed, thank you for the care of my father and mother." β
Although Miss Chen has not been to the door, she can be regarded as a husband and wife after all, and her father-in-law and mother-in-law have not helped him so much, and she also sponsors studying abroad, so it is not too much to call her parents.
The mother-in-law and mother-in-law were very happy, and they were a little arrogant when they came home after studying abroad, and they looked down on people, but they didn't expect that they had changed so much in a few days, and they didn't call them "Mr. Chen, Mrs. Chen" and called their parents, and it didn't hurt him.
"In the past few days, you should prepare well, go to my newspaper to take a job, and then change jobs when you find a good one, and you can't let people see Dr. Liuyang doing nothing all day." Mr. Chen kindly reminded that this is also for the sake of strict consideration.
Yan Buwen also understands this truth, just like the society before him, you have to go to work after college, you can't always stay at home, Yan Buwen is also surprised, this scumbag who was not admitted to college after high school can still get a doctoral diploma abroad.
Yan Buwen was sincerely grateful, thanked his father-in-law, and kept saying that he should prepare well.
After eating, Yan Buwen returned to his hut, not far from the opposite is the residence of the little girl Xiao Rong, Xiao Rong is not the maid of the Chen family, after all, there is no such thing as a maid now, at most a servant, and the status is also equal. Xiao Rong was adopted by Mr. Chen when she was a child, and she grew up with Miss, and now she is fourteen years old, and she looks slim, because she is grateful to Mr. Chen for his adoption, so she calls Mr. Chen, Mrs. Chen, master, Mrs., to show respect.
The room in the middle was originally intended for Yan Buwen and Miss Chen's newlywed room, but now it is empty here.
It's good, it's not like Shanghai a few decades later, it's like a steel forest. It is estimated that going to the newspaper office in a few days will be an idle job, and then we will see if there is a suitable job, if I can make some contribution to the Chinese people, Yan Buwen will be very happy, but I don't know if there is such an opportunity. For the time being, I am so idle, and I don't have to worry about the intrigue in the workplace, after all, I am covered by a cheap old man.
Life in the Republic of China, if you want to, is still quite leisurely.
"Wenxiu, do you have time today, come to my house for afternoon tea." Yan Buwen went to the street to wander around after eating, walking, Yan Buwen ran up, and when he was exercising, he came to a teahouse after a while, so Yan Buwen went into the store to drink tea, and there were still many intellectuals who looked very handsome in this store.
Yan Buwen can also find his own similarities in them.
Just after Yan Buwen took a sip of tea, a man who was very well-dressed passed by the window, he wanted to walk over directly, but through the window, he saw Yan Buwen drinking tea, so he came in to say hello.
