Chapter 119: First Arrival in Shanghai

The old man looked at Dayong kindly and asked, "What?" Dayong, can't you even stand this grievance now? ”

"No, master, why don't we tell him the truth?" Wei Dayong couldn't figure out what his master thought, and Wang Liang mistakenly thought that you were a greedy person who was afraid of death, how could you still be so calm?

"Dayong, the rivers and lakes are sinister, our matter is a secret, and no one can know until the time is ripe. Remember, those who are clear are self-purifying, and those who are turbid are self-turbid, just do your own. The old man was happy, and he didn't let Wang Liang's disdainful eyes affect his mood at all.

***************************

Of course, Wang Liang didn't hear the words of the master and apprentice.

Since there is no direct train from Baoding to Shanghai, after arriving at the transit station Zhengzhou, Wang Liang and the others changed to a train and continued the journey.

To Wang Liang's surprise, the old man and Yuan Liuliu also got on the train, and he didn't pay any attention to the old man, and Yuan Liuliu was even more frightened and ran to the first carriage.

Because he was carrying a huge amount of money and guns, Wang Liang arranged to take turns to be on duty to prevent the theft of property and guns.

When Wang Liang woke up, the train had already arrived at the terminal station - Shanghai.

The train drove for more than ten hours, and when Wang Liang got off, the sun had already risen in the east, and a new day began.

Wang Liang sincerely sighed, in the end, it is China's largest economic metropolis, Shanghai Station is crowded with people, and the surging crowd is endless.

Although Wang Liang had been to Shanghai before, Shanghai in 1937 was very different from Shanghai in the 21st century.

Liu Rui and Wang Haiyang are both natives of Northeast China and have never been to Shanghai. Only Harrier, who seemed to be familiar with the road, led Wang Liang and a few of them through the crowd, like a full old driver.

Walking out of the platform, there was a row of stalls outside, and there were many newspaper boys selling newspapers on the street: "Sir, sir, let's have a newspaper!" ”

Wang Liang took out a dime of fiat currency from his pocket and handed it to the newsboy, took a newspaper and read it, first to understand the current situation in Shanghai.

The front pages of the newspapers were full of reports on the Sino-Japanese war and the attitudes of ambassadors of other countries, and the small pages were just some boring lace news.

What's interesting is that Wang Liang found that his deeds were still written in the newspaper, I'll go, it's been a week, you are still a news report, it's really water!

In fact, it is not because the editor of the newspaper has no material to report, but because the significance of this news is too great, so the editor-in-chief has not been dismissed, the purpose is to expand propaganda and enhance influence.

The influence of culture on people is subtle, and they need this good news to mobilize the self-confidence of the people in the face of the continuous defeat of the Chinese army.

Think about it: In the twenties and thirties of the twentieth century, the media used to disseminate news were nothing more than newspapers, films, television, radio, and magazines.

Compared with the latter ones, newspapers have their own unique advantages - they can be read at any time, without time restrictions; Circulate to each other, and the number of readers can be several times the number of prints; Even people with low reading or comprehension skills can spend more time absorbing the information of the newspaper. Low price (most importantly).

So at that time, those little stars who were not in the stream were famous for relying on the hype of the newspaper, and the position of the newspaper was limited, which inevitably led to some peachy transactions~

"Big brother, let's go eat something first, I'm going to starve to death." After nearly twenty hours on the train, he had not eaten, and the harrier's stomach was rumbling with hunger.

"Good!" Hearing Harrier say this, Wang Liang, Liu Rui, and Wang Haiyang also touched their stomachs together, they were indeed hungry.

"Sand Rounds~ Soft and Glutinous and Refreshing Sand Rounds!"

Before they could discuss what to eat, they were attracted by the sound of selling not far away.

"Big brother, let's eat sand balls, this thing is delicious." The harrier ate it once, and when he thought about it, he went straight to persuade Wang Liang.

"Okay, let's eat this." Wang Liang has never been a picky eater, he has also heard of sand balls before, popularly speaking, it is a strengthened version of tangyuan, which is a major specialty of Shanghai, but he has not eaten it.

The four of them sat down, ordered four plates of sand balls, and soon served them.

The sand round is to grind the red beans of Chongming County Dahongpao into sand after cooking, and then turn them into purple-red powder after drying, and then, the glutinous rice gnocchi wrapped with fresh meat or bean paste, sesame seeds and other fillings are cooked, drained and rolled on a layer of bean paste powder.

This kind of gnocchi is colored and fragrant, hot and has a strong red bean fragrance, and it is soft and glutinous, easy to carry, and has always been deeply loved.

A few people gobbled it up, and it didn't take long to wipe it out.

The harrier was a little unsatisfied, and wanted to have another one, but was stopped by Wang Liang, "Okay, you just have a little bit of fun, eat less, and I'll take you to a big dinner at noon." ”

"Really?" As soon as he heard the feast, the harrier's eyes were about to light up, although he used to be a thief and did not worry about eating and drinking, but he really did not have the courage to have a big meal in luxury, now he can feel what the feast is like.

"Lie to you that you're a puppy." After Wang Liang finished speaking, he picked up his luggage and left, and the harriers hurriedly followed.

Drip-drip-drip! Drip-drip-drip!

Just when Wang Liang and the others wanted to cross the street, they heard a rush of cars in the distance.

Wang Liang scolded this driver in his heart for having no quality at all, which pig-headed coach taught you in the first subject, don't you know that city roads are not allowed to honk indiscriminately? Oh, of course, that was in the twenty-first century.

Not only these, the car was speeding up, and Wang Liang visually measured that the speed of the car had soared to at least eighty miles!

If you drive to 80 miles on the street, if you encounter an emergency in front of you, it will be too late to step on the brakes. Wang Liang saw a six- or seven-year-old girl crossing the road, and the car was less than ten meters away.

"Come here!" Wang Liang shouted at the little girl.

But at this time, the little girl was already frightened, and she didn't dare to move when she stood still.

The driver also noticed the little girl, and kept honking the horn to no avail before stepping on the brakes, "squeak-squeak-" but the braking effect was not good, and the little girl was about to be hit.

Wang Liang stepped forward quickly, picked up the little girl and gave a 360-degree spin, only then did he avoid the car, but his arm was still knocked by the car's reflector.

The driver stopped the car, jumped down and looked, the mirror was broken, and he scolded angrily: "I am only better than (Shanghai swearing dialect), I want to die!" Keep your dog's eyes open and see, can you afford to pay for Ben Shao's Cord810? (To be continued.) )
