Chen Zikun walked forward like no one else, the black shadow followed silently, suddenly, Chen Zikun pulled out his knife and stabbed back, the action was as fast as lightning, the man hurriedly dodged, the two of them fought together, and after a while, they each stopped their hands, laughing.

"You kid has regressed, I haven't noticed it for a long time with you." The second cabinet said.

"I've noticed you a long time ago, the smell of cologne all over your body, it's hard to smell it, your old man is getting older and more coquettish." Chen Zikun grinned and grabbed the shoulders of the second cabinet and entered the hanging flower door.

Walking into the main room, Chen Zikun said: "On the hour? ”

"Yes, is there a white one?" The second cabinet replied.

"Of course, the authentic two-pot head is definitely to your taste." Chen Zikun brought a small jar and put it on the table, and the second cabinet opened the mud seal and sniffed it, making an intoxicated appearance: "Although it is not as good as the vodka in my hometown, it is better than nothing." ”

Picked it up and poured a few big mouthfuls first, the collar was wet, and the second cabinet wiped his mouth with his sleeve: "It's enjoyable, drinking brandy whiskey like warm water in the Six Nations Hotel all day long, and a bird will fade out of your mouth." ”

Hearing this alone, I would never have imagined that it would come from the mouth of a blonde and blue-eyed old hairy man.

"Second cabinet, you have always come to Beijing, what big deal do you plan to make?" Chen Zikun also took a sea bowl and poured two pots to prepare to accompany the point.

"Call me Andrei. Vasilyevich, don't have two long cabinets and two short cabinets, for fear that others will not know that we are bandits? By the way, it's all day long. The second cabinet took another big gulp as he spoke.

"You're so embarrassed by the old man's face, you're still a vegetable wine." Chen Zikun muttered while getting up to arrange snacks and food for him, just as Aunt Wang hadn't slept yet, and was coming over with a basin of hot face wash, Yingying saw someone in the house, so he asked Chen Zikun: "Boss, are you here?" ”

Chen Zikun took the face wash and said, "Auntie, how many times have you said it, why do you keep treating yourself as a person." ”

Aunt Wang said with a smile: "Auntie can't be idle, only when she does some work can she be comfortable." He shrugged his nose as he spoke: "What about drinking?" ”

"yes, there's a friend here, and I'm looking for something to eat in the kitchen."

"You sit, I'll do it." Aunt Wang went upside down, and Chen Zikun came back to chat with the second cabinet.

"Big Brother Andrei...... It's awkward, can you shout something else? ”

"I'm coming to Beijing this time under the pseudonym Andre. Count Solomon, you can call me Earl, or Mr. Solomon, I have come here for a big business. Andre said mysteriously.

"It can't be that you want to kidnap a young lady or a son from the chief's family, right?" Chan quipped.

"If there is a shortage of funds, the possibility of doing so cannot be ruled out." Andre is colorful.

"Do you need me to help you do it, I'm good at this." Chen Zikun couldn't help but itch his hands, thinking of the young ladies in the Liuguo Hotel, who were spending a lot of money, tying one up indiscriminately, and extorting 180,000 Xianyang, it is not difficult to do it.

Andre suddenly laughed: "What about making fun of you, Lao Tzu came all the way to Beijing, is it to kidnap tickets to make money, our own brothers, I won't hide it from you, in fact, I came with a special mission." ”

"What special mission?" Chen Zikun's eyes widened, for fear of missing a word.

Andrei lowered his voice and said, "Actually, I am Yan Lishanda, the supreme consul of the Russian Provisional Government. Vasilyevich. The secret envoy plenipotentiary, appointed by His Excellency Admiral Kolchak, came to Beijing to make contact with the Chinese authorities. ”

Chen Zikun suddenly realized: "Oh~~~~~~~ I see, I don't understand." ”

Andrei's face was serious, and he took out a piece of brown paper with a large seal and a signature in flower characters from his arms, and showed it to Chen Zikun: "It's funny, a gentleman from Petersburg, a deserter from the Russo-Japanese War, and a Chinese horse thief turned into a special commissioner of the Russian Provisional Government, it sounds ridiculous, but it's true." ”

Chen Zikun smiled and asked, "What is the mission of this trip?" ”

Andrei said movingly: "My motherland of Russia, has reached the most dangerous moment, officers and nobles are pulled to the river by rebellious soldiers and workers in droves and shot, Nicholas II's family is killed like dogs by them, God, a few poor princesses are only in their teens, the reds want to destroy not only the tsarist regime, but also the spirit of the Russians, they are madmen, they are devils, His Excellency General Kolchak ordered me to get in touch with the top of the Beiyang government, in exchange for their assistance in sending troops. ”

Chan asked, "Then are you starting to act?" ”

Andrei said: "The officials of the provisional government think that I am an out-and-out China expert, in fact, I just speak Chinese well, and I know Chinese character better, but in fact I don't know everything about the Beiyang government, your president is Xu Shichang, and the prime minister is Qian Nengxun, but it is said that the person who really holds the power is Duan Qirui, the superintendent of the army participating in the war, and Duan Qirui only listens to one person, this person is called Xu Shuxu, who is the deputy minister of the War Department. ”

At this point, he paused and took a sip of Erguotou: "Do you understand?" ”

Chen Zikun said: "I am confused. ”

A smile appeared on the corner of Andrei's mouth: "The situation in China is complicated, this trip is even more difficult than I imagined, in fact, you not only have a Beijing government, but also another southern regime, Sun Yat-sen, have you heard of this name?" ”

"Nope." Chen Zikun replied honestly.

"Okay, don't talk about this, although I am proficient in foreign languages, but after all, I am a foreigner, so I need a deputy, you can be a good person, of course not in vain, on behalf of the Military Department of the Provisional Government, I will grant you the rank of second lieutenant of the Russian Navy." Andre couldn't help but pull Chen Zikun into his chariot.

Chen Zikun smacked his lips and said: "Second Lieutenant, you are too stingy in the second cabinet, you are still in the navy, I have never even seen a ship, how can you become a navy." ”

Andrei explained: "Military ranks are sacred, they cannot be awarded casually, I studied at the St. Petersburg Naval Academy for six whole years, and I was only a second lieutenant, and you became a second lieutenant without going to military school for a day, which is not enough for you to show off." ”

Taking advantage of the wine, he took out a stack of blank letters of appointment, took one and spread it on the table, took off the fountain pen and dipped it on his tongue, wrote down Chen Zikun's name with a brush and handed it over: "Congratulations, Your Excellency Officer." ”

Chen Zikun was not uncommon for any second lieutenant rank, took the letter of appointment and stuffed it into his arms, muttered for a while, and said viciously: "There must be more benefits, you are not a good man and a woman, if you have no money, you can run thousands of miles away?" ”

"Hehe, the thing is done, the benefits are indispensable to you, and the gold reserves of the provisional government are very sufficient." Andrei, who had been exposed, blinked slyly.

The sound of footsteps came, and Aunt Wang sent the snacks and dishes, a plate of fried peanuts, a plate of pickled cucumbers, a plate of dry-cut braised beef, half a sauce chicken, and a pot of white water noodles.

"You old man should have some supper." Chen Zikun greeted warmly.

Andrei shook his head: "You Chinese food is too light, if only you could have some caviar, sweet dumplings filled with sour cream cherry and hot beetroot soup." ”

That being said, he still ate all the food cleanly, and there was not a drop left in one jar and two pots, so he found a place to lie down and snored in a big way.

Early the next morning, the former second lieutenant of the Imperial Russian Navy woke up from a sweet dream, put on his clothes and came to the yard to practice his signature push-ups.

Aunt Wang came to clean up the mess of the night banquet, saw the wine jar in the corner of the wall, thought it was only half drunk, stretched out two hands to move, but was flashed by the empty jar, obediently, ten catties of wine jar, the two of them drank dry, is this still a person.

After packing up and putting breakfast on the table, Andre said: "After eating, you will follow me to visit a person and learn the details of the Beiyang government from him." ”

Chan asked, "Who?" ”

"Mr. Lin Changmin, Director of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the Presidential Office and member of the Constitutional Research Association." A sly smile hung on the corner of Andre's mouth, waiting for Chen Zikun's question.

Chen Zikun really took the bait: "Why? ”

"Because he and his daughter were fascinated by the heroic appearance of the Japanese officer in your battle last night, and they wanted to get to know your mysterious guest, of course, General Xu Shuzhen was also at the scene, but he is a resourceful soldier, I don't want to show him the hole card so quickly, so it's better to find Lin Changmin first."

After thinking about it, Andre added: "Mr. Lin's daughter is very temperamental, and she has her own strengths and weaknesses with the girl you brought, if I were you, I would step on two boats." ”

Chen Zikun, who was pierced of his heart, was embarrassed and said: "I am very single-minded, and besides, I am a cousin." ”

"Sister flowers all-you-can-eat, it's better." Andrei squeezed his eyes wickedly.

was chatting, Xiao Shunzi came back from the night shift, and when he saw Andre also there, he was shocked: "Da Kunzi, who are you?" ”

Chen Zikun hurriedly introduced it, only saying that Andre was a friend he met in Kanto, and did not mention that he had been a bandit together.

Xiao Shunzi didn't care about this, he was concerned about how to use Da Kunzi to make money, and regardless of Andre's presence, he couldn't wait to tell Yao Yilei about taking care of himself.

"Da Kunzi, don't you know how rich Miss Yao's family is, the reward has always been five yuan and ten yuan, and one yuan is not embarrassed to sell at all, if you climb this high branch, you won't have to worry about it in your life." Xiao Shunzi sighed in admiration.

Before Chen Zikun could speak, Andre said: "This plan is not bad, it is worth considering." ”

As soon as he opened his mouth, Xiao Shunzi was startled: "Mom, you can speak Chinese." ”

Andre smiled: "Not only do I speak Chinese, but I also know that you are Tom in the cloakroom, and you stole the night dress I put in the laundry room for this gentleman last night, right?" ”

Xiao Shunzi's soul was not possessed, and he looked at Chen Zikun for help.

"Okay, don't scare him." Chen Zikun said with a smile.

Andre took out a notepad with a sheepskin cover, took out a tap water brush and wrote a few lines, tore it off and handed it to Xiao Shunzi and said, "Tom, please go to the Six Nations Hotel and hand this to the lobby manager." ”

Xiao Shunzi held a note written in French and refused to move, how could Andre not know his thoughts, and took out a copper plate and threw it over: "Take it." ”

"Poor ghost, Miss Yao's hair is thicker than your thighs." Xiao Shunzi walked away while sneering.

When he returned to the Six Nations Hotel, he gave the note to the lobby manager, and the manager immediately asked him to go to Count Solomon's room and go to a suitcase and give it to Xiao Junzi and ask him to take it away.

Carrying the suitcase back to the Ziguang Depot, Andre opened the box, and inside was a set of dresses, tops, pants, belts, leather shoes, shirts, socks, ties, even cufflinks, handkerchiefs, and pocket watches.

Chan put on the outfit and fitted it as if it were tailor-made.

"I made this dress from a tailor in Paris, so it's cheaper for you." Andrei said.

Xiao Shunzi was dumbfounded, not knowing what kind of medicine they were selling in their gourd.

Andre told him: "You call Miss Yao in two hours, and you will say that you have received the news that Mr. Solomon has visited Mr. Lin Changmin's house, what, don't you plan to thank me?" ”

Xiao Shunzi nodded in surprise like pounding garlic: "Thank you, Lord So!" ”
