Chapter Twenty-Nine: Returning to Beijing for the New Year
Mrs. Jin didn't care about having an instructor at home, to be honest, she felt that the Jin Mansion in the magic capital was still a little smaller, and there were fewer people serving.
Especially in a few months, her son earned hundreds of thousands, and she longed for hundreds of people to serve her son.
The two wives knew that Zhou Zhen was enthusiastic about fitness now, and they also supported him to train his body to be stronger, so they had no opinion.
Wang Ziping originally wanted to ask someone to send a letter home, but he knew that Zhou Zhen and they would return to the capital for the New Year next month, and he could also follow him back to Shandong, so he lived in the Jin Mansion with peace of mind.
There are not many people in the family, so Zhou Zhen specially vacated a room on the side of the maid's room in the auxiliary building as a practice room, trying to avoid exposing his strength in front of his mother.
A few months ago, he was an ordinary person, and now he has become a master, which really doesn't make sense.
Only Wang Ziping knew Zhou Zhen's strength and regarded Zhou Zhen as a martial arts wizard.
Zhou Zhen has infinite strength, abundant physical strength, superb fighting skills, especially a pair of legs, and plays superbly.
The two of them competed privately, and he couldn't beat Zhou Zhen.
The only thing Zhou Zhen lacks is to tap his own potential and lack the skills to mobilize his whole body strength to the front line.
In addition, he can only teach Zhou Zhen some techniques of Bajiquan and Chaquan at most.
And through Wang Ziping, Zhou Zhen also came into contact with a different circle, that is, the martial arts of the Republic of China.
Compared with later generations, there are more powerful people in today's martial arts, and there are fewer impetuous, and there are many more connotations.
There are all kinds of sects and factions in the rivers and lakes, all kinds of martial arts, even if the level of people who practice martial arts is high and low, but they also have their own unique learning.
Take the Jingwu Club as an example, this is not Huo Yuanjia's start, he is just a martial artist of the Jingwu Club.
The Jingwu Club was jointly founded by Chen Gongzhe, the young proprietor of Yue Ruixiang, and Yao Toanbo and Lu Weichang in 1910, plus the martial artist Chen Tiesheng who returned from studying in Dongying, collectively known as the Four Masters of Jingwu.
Chen Gongzhe's ancestral home is Guangdong, and he is crazy obsessed with martial arts, and he spent most of his family property for the development of the Jingwu Society.
Later, in Guangdong and other provinces, more than 10 branch libraries of the Jingwu Society were built.
Each branch has recruited famous martial artists of the time to teach martial arts.
It was also during this period that a large number of boxing techniques from northern China spread to Guangdong, Nanyang and other places, creating a collection of boxing techniques in the southern region in later generations.
Later generations of movies promoted southern boxing and northern legs, but in fact, most of the boxing techniques were also transmitted from the north to the south.
Zhou Zhen got acquainted with a large number of martial artists of the Jingwu Society, and the martial artists of this period did not have the idea of cherishing themselves, and they did not want to be compared to other instructors.
From them, Zhou Zhen learned a lot of power skills from various factions.
This is a world of the same level as the real world, with no internal strength, but there are martial arts techniques that have been passed down from various schools for hundreds of years.
Even if these people are not Zhou Zhen's opponents, these quintessential power skills are exactly what Zhou Zhen needs to learn.
Zhou Zhen learned that the Jingwu Club was having a hard time, and each martial artist automatically reduced his remuneration, just to promote martial arts, and eat with his mouth.
Therefore, he generously donated 10,000 silver dollars as the development fund of the Jingwu Association, and this kind act was reported by the media, and the martial arts circles across the country knew about it, and it also made Zhou Zhen leave a name in the martial arts world for the first time.
When Zhou Zhen was learning the skills of various factions, he was also thinking that he had now turned this world of pure love into an entertainment world, and then into a martial arts world, which seemed to have changed even more.
It's just that if you change so much, will the will of the world find out?
By mid-December, the movie Road Angel had been released in major cities across the country, and the box office had reached more than 2.2 million.
This is not because there are few people watching it, but mainly because there are not enough copies, so it can only be put one at a time.
Relying on this movie, the film company's income has now exceeded one million, and it is still collecting money in the future.
Golden Velvet sent more than 200 people to squat in major cities to supervise the box office of the movie, and no movie theater owner dared to steal the box office.
What Zhou Zhen paid for it was only a reward of 20 oceans a month for one person, and 200 people were only 4,000 oceans a month, which was just a drop in the bucket compared to the income.
Zhou Zhen received most of the funds in his hands, part of which was exchanged for gold and placed in his own space, and the other part was stored in the bank and exchanged for bills.
In this world, space is almost useless, there are guards and bodyguards in and out, Zhou Zhen put a revolver in the space, and a box of bullets, and there is no chance to use it at all.
On the fifteenth day of the lunar month, he returned to the capital with his mother, who had been in the magic capital for a month, but this time Jiang's mother did not go back and stayed in the magic capital to guard the house.
Now that he has money, Zhou Zhen directly chartered a carriage and placed a few beds at the end of the carriage, which can make the journey of his mother and two wives a little more comfortable.
The guards and retinue also sat in this carriage, occupying the back seats.
When he arrived in Cangzhou, Wang Ziping asked Zhou Zhen to borrow two hundred oceans and sent an apprentice to send him home.
He didn't get out of the car, and was going to accompany Zhou Zhen to the capital, visit Sun Lutang, the world's number one master, and then go home for the New Year.
For Sun Lutang, he admires more than Zhou Zhen, and he doesn't admire much of the martial arts people in the world, Sun Lutang occupies the top position.
His attitude made Zhou Zhen look forward to it.
Most of the martial arts people he is in contact with now have some real kung fu, even if they are not as good as his physique, but they are good at skills.
Sun Lutang can be respected by everyone as the number one master, which is obviously worth looking forward to.
When the train arrived in Texas, it was snowing heavily, and the speed of the train was almost 20 kilometers per hour, and it was still stopping.
This also led to a very slow journey, which took five days to reach the capital.
It was also snowing heavily in the capital, and the Prime Minister's Office received a telegram, grasped the time of the train, and directly sent a convoy to the platform.
To Zhou Zhen's surprise, three brothers and two sisters-in-law, plus two sisters and one sister, all came to the station to pick them up.
Only the sister-in-law stayed at home, preparing a dinner party and welcoming them home.
This is not only because Mrs. Jin is with him, but also because Zhou Zhen has now become a rich man, and several brothers now want to slap him.
At Zhou Zhen's suggestion, the eldest brother and the second brother were both arranged by Jin Quan to join the army, although they did not directly lead the troops, they also abandoned their pen and followed Rong.
Not to mention, after this behavior was reported by the media, Jin Quan's reputation was better.
Only the eldest brother and the second brother are unhappy, they are used to wandering the streets, and now they have to stay in the barracks every day, and they only have three days off every month, and they are a little unbearable to this constraint.
However, they themselves have no earning power and have to rely on their families to support them, and they dare not disobey their father's wishes.
At this meeting, the three elder brothers were much more polite to Zhou Zhen, and their attitudes between words tended to be more stammering.
Zhou Zhen also prepared several redemption tickets for five thousand silver dollars, ready to be given to his brothers and sisters as gifts.
As long as they don't bother themselves, spend some money to buy a clean one.
The convoy returned to the Prime Minister's Office, and Jin Quan also postponed the trip and stayed at home to wait for them to go home.
As soon as he entered the door, Zhou Zhen and his two wives knelt down in front of him and kowtowed three times. "Father, the son is back. It is unfilial not to be able to serve by my father's side. ”
Jin Quan was still sitting on the sofa, but he was smiling. "No need to be polite, you can make some achievements now, which is great filial piety. Hurry up ......"
Zhou Zhen got up with his two wives and glanced back at Jin Rong, who immediately brought up a tray knowingly.
Zhou Zhen came to Jin Quan's side and said with a smile: "Father, the child has a gift." This time, I saw a pair of Dong Qichang's authentic works in the magic capital, and as a New Year's gift, I prepared another 200,000 silver dollars, which have been handed over to my mother and kept for home. ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar.
Jin Quan's hand, which was originally stretched out to Dong Qichang's work, also stopped suddenly.
Although Jin Quan is a director of a bank, the annual dividend is less than 10,000 silver dollars, and the Jin family is not a business person after all, and the total wealth of the family is only hundreds of thousands, less than one million.
That's 200,000 in cash!
The eldest Jin Fengju immediately asked: "Seventh, you are making a fortune now, don't forget your brothers." ”
"I've already prepared it for you, five thousand silver dollars per person, Citibank's bill. I don't know your hobby in giving gifts, so I just give money directly. ”
Zhou Zhen smiled and took out nine redemption tickets from his jacket pocket, and gave one to his three brothers, three sisters-in-law, two sisters, and one sister.
As soon as the younger sister Jin Meili received the redemption ticket, she was snatched away by the second aunt. "You little girl, what do you want so much money for? Keep it with me first, and keep it for you as a dowry. ”
Jin Meili was born to the second aunt and was a concubine, so she didn't dare to refute, pursed her lips, and pulled Bai Xiuzhu's arm, who had the best relationship with her. "Sister-in-law, the money can't fall into my hands, I'll wait for your gift."
Bai Xiuzhu smiled: "Okay, you can pick ...... in my room in a while"
In a word, Jin Meili laughed again.
Several brothers and sisters-in-law thanked each other in turn, and the family greeted each other for a while, and Jin Quan said, "Let's all disperse, rest for a while, and prepare to eat." Yanxi, you stay, tell me about what you did in the magic capital. ”
Several brothers and sisters-in-law got the redemption ticket, and they were all in a hurry to go back to the house to discuss whether to save or spend.
Even Mrs. King was ready to go back to her room to rest for a while, and only father and son were left in the hall.
Zhou Zhen returned to Jin Quan's side and sat down, Jin Quan took Dong Qichang's landscape map and looked at it for a long time before sighing with satisfaction. "Although Dong Qichang's character is not very good, this landscape painting, this handwriting, is indeed everyone's style."
Zhou Zhen nodded, he stared at Zhou Zhen for a long time, and said: "I've been to the Demon Capital for a few months, but I'm still stronger, obviously you are more adapted to the climate of the Demon Capital." ”
Zhou Zhen said with a smile: "With a father sheltering from the wind and rain, the child naturally lives freely." Although the child is in the magic capital, the news of the capital can also be known in the magic capital, and the father has worked hard for the country and the family. ”
Jin Quan is now proud, Zhou Zhen praises him, and he is poking at his pride. "As long as you fight, I'm tired and happy. There are some things in the telegram that are not clear, tell me well, why has the Oriental Daily been leaning towards the new school recently? ”
(The kung fu setting in this world is similar to the real world, except with a few more power skills.) Don't argue about the authenticity and practicality of kung fu, only the skills training to strengthen the body. )
