Chapter 8: Guo Yu's promotion to office
Holding Hu Yunyuan's waist and walking into the banquet hall of the Liuguo Hotel, this cocktail party was organized by Mobil Foreign Company, and Guo Yu was also invited to participate. Western-style cocktail parties, buffets, everyone with a smile on their faces, talking to each other cordially, of course, whether it is true or not only God knows.
However, Guo Yu really knew a few people, Liang Shiyi is a senior official of the Ministry of Finance of the Beiyang Government, and he is a close confidant of Yuan Shikai. "Brother Guo, you don't have to be surprised, you opened a porridge shed in the capital, Liang has heard of such a good deed, and even President Yuan knows about it."
"What does the government think about this?" asked Guo Yu.
"Of course, the government welcomes it, if everyone is like Brother Guo, then how many poor people will die in our Chinese land, and how many good and innocent people will be saved, this is a good deed." Liang Shiyi seems to be very happy to have someone like Guo Yu.
"If I can get the government's approval, I also hope that the government can issue a decree allowing me to continue to set up porridge shacks and adopt orphans in various places, and I will do my best to do charity, but I don't know which department I should negotiate with." Guo Yu felt that this was an opportunity, and he could open the "Huafu Association" to any part of the country in an open and honest manner, which would be very beneficial to his future development.
"Good thing, I'll introduce you to Secretary of State Xu Shichang, and I will definitely do my best to promote this good deed." Liang Shiyi agreed.
On the second day, Liang Shiyi sent someone to call Guo Yu and met Xu Shichang. Xu Shichang asked Guo Yu's origin, learned that he was a British student, and he liked it very much, so he hoped that Guo Yu could stay in the government to do things, Guo Yu vowed that he would fight for charity for life, and finally Xu Shichang not only agreed to Guo Yu's request to open a good hall "Huafu Association" in the country, but also appointed him as the president of the "China Charity Relief Association". Guo Yu can also be regarded as a masterpiece.
It was now the middle of July 1914, Europe was turbulent, and the First World War was about to break out, Guo Yu finally waited for the news of the Rockefeller family, Miller told him, and Mr. John Rockefeller Jr. basically agreed to Guo Yu's request, and the specific situation could wait for him to continue to negotiate the details after he arrived in the United States.
Guo Yu is very happy, his career has taken another big step, and he asked Hu Yunyuan to sing a long song for a night that night, with Guo Yu's physique now, Sister Xiaoyun really can't deal with it alone, and she didn't get up until noon the next day when she was tired.
Arrange matters, prepare to leave for the United States, call several responsible persons to the hotel for a meeting, now several people are basically doing according to the previous arrangement of Guo Yu, has initially entered the track, as long as it continues to do, Guo Yu mainly made key arrangements for the "Huafu Club".
The people themselves are now the presidents of the "China Charity Relief Association", and they are officially appointed by the government and given ministerial-level treatment, and this matter should be vigorously publicized through the newspapers, so that the work of the "Huafu Association" will have an official name in the future, and there will be a lot less resistance. He continued to instruct Dazhu to establish his own "Huafu Society" defense organization, because the market is not peaceful now, and we must have the ability to protect ourselves, so in the name of defending the poor people and orphans and protecting the property of the "Huafu Society", when developing the congregation, organize them, and each branch must have a corresponding number of security teams, and regularly go to the orphan camp, which is now the "Huafu School" to receive education, which is actually brainwashing. Regularly dispatch the supervision team of Huafu School to inspect the situation in various places, and there must be no greed for money and blackening.
After putting the jade and watches in the warehouse and receiving a batch of antiques recently acquired into the space, Guo Yu felt that he was almost ready, and he was about to leave for the United States. In fact, Guo Yu didn't have time to take a closer look at these batches of antiques that he received recently, anyway, Chen Yougong posted an explanation on each piece, and he looked at it slowly in the future, so he would play a game and open a treasure chest.
Guo Yu led Hu Yunyuan, Wu Xiaoni, Wu Erzhu, Li Meng and two bodyguards, and a group of seven people boarded the "American Princess" cruise ship moored at the Shanghai dock, what a strange name, does the United States have a princess. It is said that this cruise ship can be compared to the Titanic, but why do they always compare it to a sunken ship, strange Americans.
Because of the relationship between "Mei Foo Foreign Company", Guo Yu and several people want high-end rooms, and the furnishings of Guo Yu's suite are comparable to the five-star hotels in later generations, and the conditions are not bad, otherwise this long month will make people get through.
Before leaving, Guo Yu exchanged all the silver dollars for US dollars at Citibank for his own use in the United States. A total of 300,000 US dollars, which was a lot of money during the Republican period, and an American worker only earned five dollars a day.
The Princess of America sounded its whistle and slowly sailed towards the blue sea. The forty-day voyage began. Hope it was a pleasant trip.
In the evening of the same day, a grand dance party was held in the No. 1 banquet hall of the American Princess, and all the guests staying in the superior rooms were invited, Guo Yu took Hu Yunyuan, Xiao Ni, Wu Erzhu and two bodyguards to the banquet hall with gorgeous decoration and walked into the dance floor where the distinguished guests gathered.
The band was playing American blues music, people were wearing gorgeous clothes, dancing enthusiastically, the Chinese in the hall accounted for only a small part, most of them were foreigners with big noses and blue eyes, Guo Yu found a corner and a few people sat down, asked for a few bottles of red wine, and directly threw out a tip of ten yuan.
After a few people drank a drink, Guo Yu asked everyone to dance together, and the people in Erzhu couldn't live or die, Guo Yu had to take Hu Yunyuan's hand to the dance floor, and the two danced happily. In Guo Yu's opinion, Hu Yunyuan's background is not a problem, but it allows her to learn more things better, in comparison, the vast majority of women in the Republic of China are not as knowledgeable as Fengyue women, here Guo Yu can directly pull Hu Yunyuan to dance together, and women from ordinary families will definitely not cooperate.
And they are not pretentious or pretentious, they can recognize their own position, and they have been taught how to serve men and how to please men since they were young, they are the women who can make men feel the best.
After playing happily all night, the slightly drunk Guo Yu hugged Hu Yunyuan's small waist, entered his room, and picked up the beauty, Hu Yunyuan hooked Guo Yu's neck, looked at Guo Yu with confused eyes, and sent a signal of longing, what a stunner. Guo Yu rushed into the bedroom, put Xiaoyun on the soft big bed, and the two kissed together.
Confused and confused, spring love, the two kissed and took off each other's clothes, merged together at a very fast speed, Xiaoyun let out a shallow chant and sang, the two swayed together with the waves, and the love was deep, Guo Yu finally picked the daisy flowers that had never been touched.
Time passed slowly, life on the ship was boring and monotonous, Guo Yu thought of finding an English teacher for a few people, idle and idle, let them learn some English daily language, anyway, always have to learn, start today.
I asked the waiter if I could find an American English teacher, and the waiter actually introduced Guo Yu to a princess who accompanied the wine on the ship.
Lisa, one of the most common and common female names, is called by 80,000 in the United States, if not 100,000. Lisa used to live very happily, she was a primary school teacher, her husband ran a shoe factory, damn the economic crisis, they went bankrupt, the factory house was gone, the couple took the little money left, bought two tickets for the American Princess, ready to go to the Far East to look for opportunities, who knew that during the trip his husband fell ill and died, and owed a large amount of medical expenses for the ship, and began to want to work as a waiter to pay off the bills, but found that it would take several years to get off the ship, and later became a wine escort under the persuasion of others.
Of course, Lisa was also lucky, because of her youth and beauty, she didn't have to be the lowest prostitute, they were gifts for the rich, and only those who were rich, and the men that Lisa fancied, could go to her bed.
Lisa was surprised to receive this business, and it turned out to be teaching several Chinese language courses. However, Lisa discovers that her employer, Guo Yu, is a very attractive man. Guo Yu was originally more than 1.8 meters tall, because of the body transformation, his body shape tended to be perfect, coupled with his mature and stable appearance, that unique self-confidence is very attractive to women.
