nbsp; It's a little too hard to find a missing person in a city with nearly a million people.

Especially in Shangxing, from the end of the ** War to the middle of the twentieth century, about 300,000 to 500,000 Chinese who were shipped to the Americas alone disappeared here, and then were sold as piglets throughout the Americas.

A considerable number of them were sent to the bottom of the ships anchored in the harbor and sold into slavery like cattle in various parts of the Americas.

Most notorious of these were the Americans, most of whom were deceived or drugged in their taverns, or even knocked unconscious with a stick on the street, and loaded into sacks to be transported to ships anchored in harbor.

Many people know the fate of the "piglets", but there are still a considerable number of "pig flowers" that are unknown.

"Pig flowers" are Chinese women who have been deceived, kidnapped, and smuggled abroad by illegal means, and they are basically sent to ** all over the world, and they die tragically in endless humiliation.

They are almost never mentioned in various literatures, and they are a group that we have forgotten.

Finding people is the most troublesome thing to do, especially in an unfamiliar place.

However, Gao Hongsheng has three foreign devils, why don't you have to stay in vain at this time?

Albert volunteered to go to the patrol shop and ask for help from the patrol shop.

Naturally, those patrol shops don't know how to do personnel without money.

One hundred dollars of Eagle Ocean should be able to satisfy their appetite, and Gao Hongsheng generously gave Albert two hundred yuan for the purpose of the event.

At that time, the price of a piglet was only fifteen yuan of Eagle Ocean, and I believe that the reward of one hundred yuan of Eagle Ocean was enough to find the lost person.

sent Albert away, Gao Hongsheng hurriedly took a group of subordinates and escaped out of the French Concession.

was really defeated by the bad environment here, he is not without money, and he is not going to be a turtle in this era, at least he thinks that his current assets can be a local tyrant.

The local tyrants have the benefits of the local tyrants, the women make sedan chairs, the men take carriages, and the luggage is handed over to the trolley workers who were doing the handling business in the concession at that time, and Gao Hongsheng They can kill the most prosperous British Concession at that time.

At that time, the British Concession was still good, at least compared to other concessions, it could be regarded as much more advanced, so that Gao Hongsheng could enjoy a bath in the bathroom at night in a standing ceramic vat.

That's right, it's a large ceramic vat, and bathers can only sit upright in the large ceramic jar in which they take a bath.

It's not the exaggerated enamel bathtub that appears in TV and movies now, where you can lie comfortably and take a bath.

Well! With the exception of the most famous restaurant at the time, the other buildings did not even have a flush toilet.

Yes, there are no flush toilets, and one thing, it's ridiculous.

At that time, in the eyes of Westerners, curtains were a harmful thing to health, so many buildings of Westerners did not have curtains, but curtains were hung in our early movies and televisions that depicted Westerners.

The advantage of having foreign devils to open the way is that you don't have to worry about other misunderstandings when you go to the concession, otherwise it will be a trouble to enter the rental world.

The Licha Hotel was the pinnacle of the Shanghai Hotel at that time, the first gas lamps were used in 1867, and in July 1882, the first electric lights in China were installed, and it once welcomed curious visitors.

But the light bulb, yes, is something you wouldn't expect, it's a two-kilowatt arc lamp.

So what is an arc lamp, and what does it look like?

Have you ever seen those exterior lights? Yes, it's similar to that thing, but it's not what you think it is used for interior lighting in guest rooms, it's mostly used in spacious halls.

At that time, there were not many of them in Shangxing, but there were four in the Kelica Hotel, which was two more than the power plant at that time.

By the following year, it was the first place in Shanghai to use tap water.

But don't think it's a palatial building, the Recha Hotel was only two storeys long, not a modern five-storey brick and wood building, and the style was not a neoclassical style, but a two-story building in the East Indian style.

John and Brooke, two down-and-out foreigners, have risen in value immediately since they followed Gao Hongsheng, and they have already purchased the most popular clothes in Europe at that time in Tianjingwei, and now they are also full of style like dogs.

John, as a boxer of jīng ming, of course, is not stupid at all, although he has been working hard to learn Chinese during this time, but the difficulty of Chinese is beyond his imagination, but the simple rì often talks to be able to deal with it, and now he is sitting in a carriage with Gao Hongsheng at the beginning, listening to Gao Hongsheng and Feng Laosi brag.

Feng Laosi was really miserable, his face was full of red bumps, and there was a horn on his head, but his hair like steel needles was also negligent, and the scar left by the bullet on the top of his head was not protected, and the result was that the location of the scar became a strange horn.

Now I am holding the anti-itch and anti-inflammatory ointment provided by Gao Hongsheng, and I am touching it on my face like alabaster there, which is too much, so I have to use the most trouble-free method.

"Fourth brother! How about it, let's not have a bad thing, look at my face, it's not itchy anymore. It's still cool and comfortable, that is, the fourth brother, you, if the others want me, they won't give it to me! ”

"Don't say it, this thing is really easy to use, it won't be scratched when you touch it, where did this thing come from, why haven't I seen it." Feng Laosi asked curiously as he applied the ointment to his face with his big hand that had swollen into bread on the back of his hand.

"Hey! Don't worry about where the things come from, take care of yourself first, I still have six pipes here, just two of us, save some use, I can get some in a few days. By the way, I kept the used packaging for me, and I didn't give it to someone else. This is the real product of people's secrets, and it took a lot of effort to get it. Gao Hongsheng was worried about the outflow of packaging.

"What's wrong with the third child? It's all right."

“…………”

The location of the Recha Hotel is not too good, it is a little far away from the most prosperous Bund in the concession, and it is a bit remote.

When he arrived at the Recha Hotel, John was the first to jump out of the carriage after the doorman opened the door, pushed away the waiter who was still bending, and walked into the hall first.

However, Gao Hongsheng and Feng Laosi sat comfortably on the open-top horses, waiting for John to finish the first qiē before getting out of the car.

This is the difference between the boss and his subordinates, everything has to be done by his subordinates, only when his subordinates can't do it, the boss will come out, otherwise how can he show who is the boss and who is the follower.

The two doormen looked at the two Chinese sitting in the carriage in amazement, with short hair shaved and red envelopes on their faces.

That's right, it's Chinese, and the doorman decided that these two people are 100% Chinese.

This can be guessed from their height, and the northern accent in which the two men talk to each other clearly indicates that the two men are Chinese.

Who are these two people, and how can a Westerner be willing to be their followers?

It's a pity that the two people didn't have time to think about it, and the follow-up carriages followed one by one, and the sedan chairs of the ladies stopped at the door of the hotel unhurriedly, followed by more than a dozen wheelbarrows transporting their luggage, accompanied by squeaking and squeaking movements, and the whole front of the hotel was stuffed full, and the two doormen were completely busy.

It's just that John has been in for more than half an hour, and he hasn't come out yet.

The impatient Gao Hongsheng shouted Brooke, and sent Brooke in to find John, but the strange thing is that Brooke went in for a while, and he didn't come out, what the hell is going on?

Could it be that these two people have defected?
