Chapter Seventy-Seven: Feng Tao Gets Acquainted with Black Peony and White Butterfly (Supplemental Edition)
Feng Tao smiled and said-
In 1940, Feng Tao, who had just filmed the movie "Defending Changsha" in Chongqing, accepted the invitation of the Aviation Committee of the Kuomintang government to serve as a volunteer propagandist in a fund-raising activity. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
The fundraiser was held on a flat plot of land by the Jialing River, and the staff set up several tables, and in front of the table was placed a wooden donation box as high as a table, closed in all directions, with a wide slit in the upper part. A red silk banner was hung on the two acacia trees behind the table, and the banner was written with a large brush: "Please donate money to buy airplanes for the Air Force to fight the war of resistance." ā
Feng Tao, who was wearing a gray and white suit, held a loudspeaker and said loudly to passers-by: "Compatriots, the devils eventually invaded our land, because our air force lacked planes, and even the rear area was always bombed indiscriminately by the devil's planes. In order to defend the country and drive out the Japanese invaders, we need to build a strong air force. And the strength of the Air Force depends on the number of aircraft. At present, our country cannot manufacture aircraft, all aircraft need to be purchased from foreign countries, but the government is now in financial difficulties. To this end, we need to ask the vast number of compatriots to dedicate their love, for our country, for our air force, and for ourselves, please all have the money to contribute and make a strong contribution to donate money to buy airplanes. Donate more money, and donate less money. There is no cash to donate gold or silver jewelry. Even if everyone only donates a copper plate, they are helping the Air Force buy planes and fight devils. To tell you the truth, last month, I donated all the gold bars I earned from acting to the Air Force. ā
Feng Tao's publicity was really effective, and many passers-by went up to the donation box to send money. After some women donated money, they also asked Feng Tao to sign and leave a message in their notebook.
A young student couldn't help but stop and said to an old man in his company, "Dad, I want to donate money too." ā
The old man in the green cloth robe whispered, "Are you stupid? If half of these donations can be used to buy airplanes, they will have a conscience. Before the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, they called on everyone to donate money to buy airplanes. At that time, the donation was enough to buy 5,000 planes, but when did everyone see our 5,000 planes fighting devils? Ge Laozi, aren't all those donations donated to the crotch of an old lady? ā
At this time, two young women with slender figures and peugeot features passed by, one of them was wearing a sleeveless black silk cotton cheongsam, and the other was wearing a sleeveless white silk cotton cheongsam. Both of them had short cheongsams, with hems as short as they reached the knees, but the slits reached the base of their thighs. Hearing Feng Tao's propaganda, he couldn't help but stop and turned his head to look at Feng Tao. Someone in the lively crowd saw the two of them, and deliberately shouted: "Isn't this the red and purple black peony and white butterfly in the Rejuvenation Building?" Why, what do you two want to donate to buy planes for the Air Force? ā
Then, others also coaxed: "You all want others to donate money to you, and you have always only been in and out, what's wrong, which nerve is beating today?" Actually remembered to bleed? ā
Black Peony, who was wearing a black cheongsam, heard everyone's teasing, couldn't help blushing, and quickly lowered her head. The skin of the black peony is not black at all, on the contrary, it is very white. At this time, because of shyness, his face was white and red, and he became more and more beautiful.
The white butterfly wearing a white cheongsam opened her eyes angrily, raised her head and stared at the lively, and asked loudly: "Don't look down on people, what's wrong with prostitutes, don't prostitutes contribute to the country?" ā
White Butterfly then turned his head to look at Feng Tao and asked, "Mr. Feng, we also want to donate to buy planes for the Air Force." Of course, our identities have just been revealed, may I ask Mr. Feng, will you dislike that our money is dirty? ā
Before Feng Tao could get close to his mouth, a man in the crowd behind him coaxed: "Yo, the red and purple prostitutes Black Peony and White Butterfly have really come to donate." ā
The crowd laughed again. The black peony and the white butterfly widened their eyes angrily and looked back.
Feng Tao was also annoyed, and scolded loudly on the spot: "Who is talking nonsense there? Patriotic donations are made regardless of status or occupation. The person who speaks cool words is clearly sabotaging donations and sabotaging the War of Resistance, what is the difference between this and a traitor? The person who said cool things, do you dare to stand up? ā
After Feng Tao finished saying this, those who were laughing suddenly all closed their mouths and shrunk their necks.
Feng Tao lowered his head and asked the fundraising captain who was sitting in the middle seat, "Captain Gu, people want to donate, you see, whether to accept it or not." ā
The long-slender-faced captain in a black serge tunics waved his hand generously and said, "No problem, didn't Mrs. Jiang say it?" No matter who you donate, no matter how much you donate, the fundraising team must receive it. ā
Feng Tao then asked the black peony and the white butterfly kindly, "Two young ladies, how much are you going to donate?" ā
The two stepped forward, and the big-eared white butterfly first took out two bills from her bag, and then said to the round-faced black peony: "Sister, you can donate the same as me." ā
Black Peony hesitated, gritted his teeth, and also took out two bills from his bag.
Captain Gu found that the banknotes donated by the two were all in small denominations, and saw that the two of them were wearing very expensive cheongsam fabrics, wearing gold earrings, gold necklaces, gold rings, gold bracelets, gold watches, and delicate black cowhide high heels on their feet, so he pouted dissatisfiedly: "You wear gold and silver, so generous, how can you donate this?" How many ladies and ladies are not dressed by you just now? People donate more money than you do. Some of them donated their rings and bracelets. ā
White Butterfly rolled her eyes and glared at Captain Gu, ignoring him.
Black Peony hurriedly said with a smiling face: "Sir, don't you know, those ladies and misses' money and jewelry are their own. And we, except for the pocket money, which are our own, none of the clothes on our bodies are our own, and they are all sent to us by the Rejuvenation Building. Last month, one of our old sisters got married, and before leaving, all her clothes, shoes and jewelry were taken off. Even the bra pants had to be taken off, and finally I left wearing a set of shabby pants and a pair of old cloth shoes. The things she took off were distributed to everyone by the Rejuvenation Building. I also got a ring with White Butterfly. We actually want to donate, but if we donate our jewelry, we will be beaten when we go back. ā
White Butterfly then continued: "Mr. Captain, can you guarantee that we will not be beaten for donations?" The protection we want is real, and you don't just say empty words to fool us. If, if you can really guarantee that we won't get beaten, we'll donate all the jewelry on our bodies. Of course, if you think we donate a lot of money, sir, we can also don't donate. ā
Of course, Captain Gu couldn't care about the rights and interests of prostitutes, and at the same time, he was unwilling to fly away again with the pocket duck that was about to reach his mouth, so he said impatiently: "Okay, okay, you can donate this money today." (To be continued.) )
