Early the next morning, after Chen Qiang had eaten and drunk enough, he came to the car shop in Bugaoli.

I saw the shopkeeper Tian Fatzi standing at the door, looking like a mourner, and when he got closer, he found that the wrist of Chen Fatzi's right hand was bandaged tightly, and blood oozed from the gauze, but his right hand was gone.

"What's going on? Was it injured, or was it chopped down? Chen Qiang was shocked, considering the background of Tian Fatzi's gang, Chen Qiang felt that the right hand that was not had was more likely to be cut off.

In the car dealership, the position where Tian Fat Man was originally seated was replaced by a person in his twenties, whose surname was Zhu, and he was the new shopkeeper.

"You all listen well, from today onwards, Tian Fatzi will roll up the cover and get out, and I, Zhu Laosi, will be your new shopkeeper!" This newcomer Zhu shopkeeper looks like he is showing off his might, and he has a posture of a new official taking office with three fires.

This Zhu Laosi can come to this car shop as a shopkeeper, and he is naturally also a disciple of the gang, and nine times out of ten he is also an apprentice of Jin Jiulin.

The drivers lined up to pick up the car, and at the same time chatted quietly.

"What's going on? Tian Fatzi's right hand is gone, and a new shopkeeper has come to take Tian Fatzi's place. ”

"Don't you know? Tian Fatzi's hands and feet are not clean, and the guards steal from themselves. ”

"What kind of self-theft law?"

"I heard that he took the money on the counter and gambled with others, and when he won or lost, he divided the spoils in half, and finally lost 10,000 yuan!"

"Ten thousand oceans! So much! I've never seen that much money in my life! ”

"But it's not, if Tian Fat Man could add this hole, it would be fine, but he found someone to cut down the person who gambled with him."

"If I lost 10,000 yuan, I want to cut people if I say it!"

As a result, the man was not hacked to death by him, but also poked out the fact that he lost money, Jin Jiuye immediately came to check the account after he found out, only to find that his hands and feet were not clean, so he directly cut off his right hand! It is said that if it weren't for Tian Fatzi's hard work over the years, he would definitely have to go to the Huangpu River to fish for his corpse. ”

When Chen Qiang next to him heard this, he immediately remembered what happened to him saving Wu Youyuan a few days ago.

Gambling money in partnership, winning or losing is split in half, isn't this Wu Youyuan's trick of deceiving people! There's no second person to do that.

In this way, the mystery of Wu Youyuan being chased and killed was also solved, and the chasing soldier that day was the person Tian Fatzi found.

It is estimated that Tian Fatzi was also tricked by Wu Youyuan, and he also took the money from the car dealership to gamble, but he lost the money. Tian Fatzi was angry because he lost money, so he wanted to kill Wu Youyuan, Wu Youyuan was cut and fled, and he happened to get into Chen Qiang's car, so he had the rest of the matter.

……

In the blink of an eye, it's December.

In the evening, Chen Qiang returned to his residence with a large bag of charcoal.

"It's winter, and this month's expenses have increased." Chen Qiang looked at the brazier in the corner, and then put the newly bought charcoal into it.

In order to cope with this winter, Chen Qiang not only bought himself a cotton jacket and cotton pants, but also bought a brazier.

This brazier is made of cast iron, in the shape of a pot in the middle, the edge is wide and flat, the iron basin burns charcoal, a brazier stand is added to it, and a pot of boiling water can be boiled, which is very popular in most places in the south.

One of the reasons why Chen Qiang took a fancy to this residence was also because there was a brazier in this room, which could be more comfortable in winter. If the house is smaller, you can't even put a brazier, so you can only use a basket and basket to keep warm, and the heating effect is naturally not as good as the brazier.

In recent years, many poor families cannot afford to buy heating equipment, such as the slums in Zhabei, where they can only rely on shaking to heat their homes.

Chen Qiang was glad that he had escaped from the slums of Zhabei, otherwise he would have to hide under the covers and shiver now.

Thinking of the foreigners who were sent to the Licha Hotel during the day, Chen Qiang couldn't help but feel a little envious.

The Reicha Hotel is heated. Chen Qiang helped the guests carry their luggage into the door of the Licha Hotel, and suddenly felt that the warmth enveloped the whole body, Chen Qiang wanted to be warm and warm in the Licha Hotel, but unfortunately he was a coachman, and the Licha Hotel would definitely not let him rest in it, if it was not for the opportunity to carry the luggage, he would not be able to enter the door of the Licha Hotel.

At this time, the Licha Hotel had its own boiler for heating, and there was more than one. Not only the Licha Hotel, but also the big hotels and convention halls opened by foreigners also have boilers that can burn heating.

Wealthy families in Shanghai are equipped with steam stoves for heating in winter. Mr. Lu Xun's "Smart People and Fools and Slaves" mentioned that "the steam stove is burned in winter and the fan is played in summer", and this "steam stove" is a steam stove. In the twenty years of love, the steam stove was already a common heating tool used by the wealthy

The steam furnace is actually a small boiler, and now the 600 pieces of free shipping on a treasure are better than this, but at that time, China's industrial capacity could not be built, and they all relied on imports. The imported steam oven is the best product from Germany, and there are many foreign companies in old Shanghai, all of which are agents of German steam furnaces.

Chen Qiang didn't expect to have a steam stove, a brazier could warm up the whole room, and he was already very content.

In order to avoid carbon monoxide poisoning, Chen Qiang opened the window, and a gust of wind blew, blowing the gray charcoal in the brazier red, and at the same time dissipating heat.

The wind outside is a bit damp and cold, and this clammy and cold feels like it can invade people's bones, which is very special, which is unique in the country, because Shanghai Tang is also unique in the country.

The cold in Shanghai is different from the cold in the north, strictly speaking, the north should not be called "cold", but should be called "freezing". The difference is that the winter in Shanghai can make people cry cold, while the winter in the north can really freeze people to death.

Chen Qiang looked out the window, and secretly said in his heart that the northern land at this time should be thousands of miles of ice and snow, in this era of war and chaos, a heavy snowfall, I don't know how many poor people will freeze to death on the streets.

Chen Qiang picked up a copy of "Declaration", then read the electric light above his head.

Now Chen Qiang is also a person who can afford to read newspapers!

In fact, for ordinary coachmen, the price of a four-cent copy of "Declaration" is still a little expensive, but Chen Qiang still insists on buying a newspaper every day to learn about what is happening at home and abroad.

For people in this era, reading newspapers is just to understand the news, but for Chen Qiang, a traveler, reading newspapers is to understand this era. He was not familiar with the history of this era, but the news in the newspaper allowed him to recall some historical information that he still knew.

Finally, Chen Qiang saw a message, which roughly read:

The All-China Sports Association decided to hold the National Games in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province on April 1, 1930, and the Shanghai region will register for the selection of athletes on March 9.

After seeing this news, Chen Qiang's expression was suddenly shocked, and the long-awaited National Games were finally coming.
