Chapter XXXV: Latin
When Zhao Shuihe asked what Mr. Dagrob's Latin meant, our shopkeeper Tong suddenly pulled his face down. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Then he told us with a complicated expression: "Usually there are written records in both Chinese and foreign languages, and they are all mutually interpreting relationships, often different written records of the same thing, but ...... This one is not. ”
As he spoke, the shopkeeper pointed to the long list of Latin characters he had written on the papyrus and said, "The first sentence of the opening sentence of this Latin is that Mr. Dagradish told us in his own voice...... The content of the Chinese part is fake, and it is a lie that President Li put gold on his face. ”
With the words of the shopkeeper Tong, all of us who were eating, drinking, picking our noses and pedicures stopped moving at the same time.
After that, with a completely incomprehensible look, everyone said in unison: "Huh?!"
After being silent for a long time, Shui He was the first to speak: "Fake? Since it's fake, why did he write it?"
When he asked, he said with a smile: "Foreigners are not stupid, they know that this President Li is powerful, and the radish is just a clock and watch craftsman, and he can't resist hard, and although people say that they have distorted the facts, they have also given a lot of rewards, and no one needs to get along with money, isn't it ......"
However, compared with the vaunted and boastful General Manager Li, this Mr. Da Grober is obviously more conscientious, and although he does not dare to confront the general manager openly, he still writes a Latin gadget under the Chinese "documentary" to engage in "historical correction".
And this thing is the real story at the "International Machinery Expo".
In this regard, I have to say that Mr. Dagrober did really badly, he comforted his heart that he was forced to lie, and at the same time sold the face of Mr. Li, and in turn played a trick on Mr. Li by the way.
After all, Mr. Li did not know any of the Latin characters like donkey urine, so he completely thought that Da Grober had translated his Chinese into Latin, and would not verify the fallacy of the content of this text.
But in any case, with the help of Mr. Dagrober's intentional or unintentional brushstrokes and cleverness, the bloody truth of the exposition was presented to us in front of us in the end.
...... When the shopkeeper Tong explained this to us, all of us were interested, and we were attracted by the discovery of the old shopkeeper.
Everyone didn't expect that behind this seemingly simple "eunuch bell", there were so many court stories and greasy secrets, and so many foreign envoys, and the past of the former Qing Dynasty ministers.
Looking forward to it, I couldn't wait to ask the shopkeeper Tong: "Old shopkeeper, tell me quickly, what is the truth in Latin? Why did Da Grob scold Li Lianying for boasting about himself? Why did he have to write another page of things and record those truths around the corner?"
I asked eagerly, but the shopkeeper didn't say anything, and later he even smiled, and he had to ask me to make amends for him.
Even the shopkeeper Tong spoke, learning from what I had just done, and yelled at me: "I was going to say just now, but you didn't listen, but now you want to listen to me!"
Listening to the words of the shopkeeper Tong, I was slightly stunned, and then suddenly understood.
I was taking advantage of him just now, but now it's changed to him taking advantage of me.
Naked revenge!
I'm not stupid, I know that this shopkeeper is holding me with words, and naturally it's not just to get a breath back, maybe he wants to play a tooth for a tooth, and he has to find something back in the matter of him sending the house to relocate, so he can be satisfied.
In this regard, I had no choice but to answer the shopkeeper Tong with a smiling face: "The old shopkeeper, if you have any special requirements and opinions, you might as well say it directly, if I can agree, try to agree." Just finish the story!"
With my point, the shopkeeper Tong leaked a smug smile, and then he stretched out a finger and said to me in a strange way: "You are still a monkey cub and clever! I don't embarrass you, I want to hear what is next, and you promise me everything." ”
I said urgently, "What?
The shopkeeper Tong told us with a smug smile: "Give the house to you, I have to make room upstairs, I talk and count, I pack up my valuables, and I will start moving after a week, but I can't afford to take care of the workers, and I don't worry about outsiders, so this is the ...... thing to help me move things."
Shopkeeper Tong glanced at us, and finally said, "You must do it all! I will go downstairs like I have everything upstairs! Don't break it for me!"
After listening to the words of the shopkeeper Tong, my heart that originally mentioned my throat fell back again.
Immediately, I nodded and said, "Since Shopkeeper Tong can afford me, then we will take care of these things." Three days later, we'll help you move on time! ”
Having said this, Zhao Shuihe, who was already eager to try beside me, immediately opened his mouth and asked the old shopkeeper urgently: "Shopkeeper, we have your favor, now we can tell the second half of the story, right?"
Despite Shui He's words, the shopkeeper Tong, who had avenged his revenge, finally nodded proudly and continued to tell us about his research results.
Later, the old shopkeeper told us: "According to Da Grober's record, what happened at the International Machinery Exposition this time was far less harmonious than Li Lianying's record, and in the end, it made the Empress Dowager Feng Yan of the West angry, and even cut off a person's head......"
With the translation of the shopkeeper Tong, we quickly understood the reason for this.
At first, the development of this expo was similar to the documentary part of Li Lianying's Chinese, and after seeing Li Lianying's grandfather clock, Lafayette did immediately smile and smile, and his face was pleasant, "even scolded a few words of monkey cubs, so smooth ...... mind", which pushed the aura of the entire international exhibition to the highest.
After that, Lafayette took this interest, and personally got off the phoenix bed, accompanied by a group of palace eunuchs, wandering among all kinds of foreign machinery to study, carefully examining and analyzing every thing that foreign people paid tribute, and the more he looked, the more satisfied he was.
Unconsciously, the noon sun got up, although Lafayette lingered, but according to the immutable rules in the palace, our protagonist Mrs. still drove the Le Shou Tang and went for a lunch break.
Before leaving, the old lady was naturally very happy, and at the same time, in order to give enough face to the ministers of various countries, so he specially instructed all the participating envoys to stay, and allowed to stay in the Summer Palace at noon and evening for imperial dinner, and after the meal, he was also allowed to accompany Lafayette to watch a famous drama for her birthday in the big theater building by the Kunming Lake.
