Chapter 217: I've thought of the movie name
At the beginning of in Japan, Li Shutong and Zhao Chuanxin described this woman as: "Rich and full of temples, round like the moon, the crown of Tianjin women." ”
It can be said responsibly that later Uncle Li became a monk, and she was one of the major inducements.
This infatuated man's case against a woman happened last year.
Uncle Li is also an introverted gentleman who loves to listen to and sing.
I often go to the opera garden, and I listen to it for a day.
Then if you don't have fun, you will ask the troupe to let you make a cameo role on stage.
At this point, Uncle Li is really good at playing.
One day, Yang Cuixi appeared.
It's like a vast library full of decent protagonists of clay tires and wood sculptures, who have died for the sake of civilization and the great rivers and mountains. Suddenly, I turned to a book, and the protagonist was idle all day long, but it was very interesting.
Even if you want to scold a few words, it can make you happy.
Of course, for Li Shutong, Yang Cuixi is the kind of bright that is more positive energy.
Therefore, since then, whenever there is a scene where Yang Cuixi appears, he will inevitably go to the scene, as if he is a die-hard fan.
Because they have a common hobby, and Li Shutong is really talented, understands drama and literature, and has a lot of research on history, so the two are obsessed with each other very quickly.
But it backfired, and the beautiful marriage was interrupted because Uncle Li and his mother asked him to go to Shanghai.
At this time, the carriage and horses are slow, and it is not even enough to love one person in a lifetime.
Waiting for Uncle Li to return to Tianjin, good guy, Yang Cuixi has successfully held hands with others.
Here is another person to mention - Duan Zhigui.
Duan Zhigui is a lackey under Yuan Datou.
At the beginning, he relied on the beauty to get on Yuan Datou's thighs.
Yuan Datou is also famous for being greedy for money and lustful.
After tasting the sweetness, Duan Zhigui was out of control, and the beauty tried to eat it all over the world.
Just last year, in the Tianxian Garden in Tianjin City, he spent 12,000 taels of silver to redeem Yang Cuixi and give it to Aixin Jueluo Zaizhen as a concubine.
Because the governor of the three provinces was to be set up outside the Guan, Duan Zhigui relied on the two of them to love Xinjueluo and Zaizhen, and successfully won the first place and took the position of acting governor of HLJ.
But if you want to say what kind of infatuated lover Yang Cuixi is, it is too much to think about.
This girl looks ordinary, but Gu Ying lingers, and there is a lot of spring love between her eyebrows, and she is not a worry-free lord at first glance.
When he learned that Yang Cuixi was bought, Li Shutong knew that the man holding hands had a powerful and amazing background, and he was immediately discouraged, coupled with the bad news of his mother's death, he became depressed and went to Japan to study and escape reality.
But Zhao Chuanxin saw his true face at this time, but he couldn't figure it out.
A thousand words can be boiled down to one sentence: That's it?
Zhao Chuanxin moved his buttocks uncomfortably and said, "Hey, maybe I'm really suffering from face blindness now?" Can't tell the difference between beauty and ugliness? ”
It can't be said that she is ugly, but the evaluation given by Zhao Chuanxin is the posture of a middle-aged person.
is more than a step worse than Miao Cuihua, Takano Mariko, Zena Keith, and even Li Zining.
Even Naoko Yuka can't compare.
Lao Li, Lao Li, Zhao must persuade you not to become a monk, is it not worth knowing?
Yang Cuixi didn't understand what Zhao Chuanxin's "face blindness" meant, and asked nervously: "What?" ”
"Oh, it's okay, Miss Yang, hello!"
"Uh, hello."
Zhao Chuanxin's gaze wandered back and forth between Aixin Jueluo Zaizhen and Yang Cuixi.
Suddenly, Zhao Chuanxin said: "Miss Yang, I have a friend, and now in Japan, he seems to know you." His name is Li Shutong. ”
Yang Cuixi, who was originally panicked, trembled and stopped talking. looked at the indignant Aisin Jueluo Zaizhen sitting opposite, but in the end he couldn't speak.
"Humph!" Aisin Jueluo Zaizhen couldn't help but speak. "Lucian, you're enough! This is the official's concubine, how dare you mention it in front of the official, mention others? ”
Aixin Jueluo Zaizhen knew about Li Shutong, and when he heard Zhao Chuanxin mention it, he was furious.
"Look at you, are you in a hurry? We're just talking. By the way, are you a prince? ”
"Hmph, not now, but sooner or later I will inherit the title."
"Then let me ask you, is your position as a scholar a great official?"
"Hmph, it's not big, barely from a product!"
Zhao Chuanxin didn't react, but the people around him gasped!
This person turned out to be a first-class master?
"I heard that your father sold his official beard and took back 7 million pounds of silver, is this true?"
Zhao Chuanxin's expression was sincere, and his face was full of curiosity.
After all, the construction of Lugang Town, the training of the insurance team, charity, war, Hong Kong Island investment, the United States real estate, plus the upcoming formation of the backwater army...... All these things add up, and the silver in his pocket is like a leaky ball, which quickly deflats.
Zhao Chuanxin is now interested in money.
The eyes of the people around them were straight, 7 million pounds, and their scalps were numb when they listened.
1 pound is about 10 silver dollars, and 7 million pounds is 70 million silver dollars!
Isn't this the sale of half of the Qing court?
This news is very high-level and very delicious.
Aixin Jueluo Zaizhen was not only trembling in his hands and feet, but even his eyes were bloodshot.
Because, what Zhao Chuanxin said is true.
Even if the numbers vary slightly, they are not bad.
"You talk nonsense!"
He couldn't care about anything, stood up and pointed at Zhao Chuanxin and roared.
Zhao Chuanxin seemed to be frightened by his actions, and said helplessly: "Okay, okay, okay, I won't say it, sit down, you are so excited, it will make everyone mistakenly think that this is true!" ”
“……”
His words made Aisin Jueluo Zaizhen realize that he had done something stupid!
yes, why be so excited?
It's not that this Lucian is making trouble, this person is a dead star!
So he hurriedly sat down, but his pale face and red eyes could not be concealed.
Zhao Chuanxin stopped talking to him.
He shook his legs and leaned on his neck and hummed: "Explosive thunder, explosive thunder, love Xinjueluo Yixuan's heart is really black......"
Yi Liang is Zai Zhen his father.
"......" Aisin Jueluo Zaizhen: "What did you say?" ”
"Didn't you hear? Then I'll say it again. Zhao Chuanxin said: "Explosive thunder, explosive thunder, the new spring breeze sledgehammer!" ”
“……”
Aixin Jueluo Zaizhen and Yang Cuixi only felt very tormented.
One is full of thoughts about how to get revenge, and the other feels that it is not a taste in his heart.
Seeing that Aixin Jueluo Zaizhen had stopped, Zhao Chuanxin smiled and got up: "Oh, look at your cowardly look, be careful!" Let it be given to you, let's get a seat. ”
Then he looked at the two obedient retinues who had been beaten: "What are you two doing with a pestle?" Find a place to sit and practice? ”
Aixin Jueluo Zaizhen, who changed seats, waved his hand to his entourage: "You guys also sit down." ”
Seeing Aixin Jueluo Zai Zhen's angry look, Zhao Chuanxin said with a smile: "Zai Zhen, don't think about revenge, the consequences are very serious." ”
Aisin Jueluo Zaizhen glared at him and didn't speak.
This is clearly a sign of unconvincing.
Zhao Chuanxin asked him: "Zai Zhenna, where is your father's money?" A cellar at home, or a bank? ”
"What's your business?"
Zhao Chuanxin took out his cigar and lit it: "Look at what you said, it must have something to do with me." Your father is all looted people's fat and people's ointment, and I am the one who governs the small people. Can't I ask? Is there still a royal law? Is there still a law? ”
Aixin Jueluo Zaizhen became excited again, looking at the eager eyes of the people around him, he shouted loudly: "This official hereby affirms that this person is purely planted and slandered, and it is all fabricated out of thin air. ”
Zhao Chuanxin took a puff of smoke: "Don't worry, you don't have to deliberately emphasize, we all understand, we all understand, don't you guys?" ”
"Yes, we do."
"My lord, don't worry, don't dare to go out and talk nonsense."
With a sweet throat, Aixin Jueluo Zaizhen felt his chest blocked.
blame his father for being too greedy, not to mention that it was true, and later even Pu Yi complained that the Qing Dynasty was buried in the hands of Aixin Jueluo Zaizhen and his father.
Even if he is not so ruthless, Zhao Chuanxin will never wronged people.
When he got off the train, Zhao Chuanxin thought that Aixin Jueluo Zaizhen would make trouble for him.
He is ready to concretize the name "Little Black Dragon with Two Guns and Fast Legs".
However, another train was overturned calmly.
Coincidentally, Aixin Jueluo Zaizhen and Yang Cuixi were in the same carriage with him.
It's just that this time the two sides are far apart.
When Aisin Jueluo Zaizhen found out that Zhao Chuanxin had gotten on the bus, he hurriedly turned his head and asked his entourage to firmly occupy the remaining seats around him.
Naturally, Zhao Chuanxin also saw them.
originally didn't plan to go over again to join in the fun, but it can be seen that the other party is so stingy, then he can't get used to it.
Walking over, he stretched out his hand and picked up his entourage: "I'm going to sit here, you go to the side." ”
The entourage can't let it go, otherwise when he goes back, Aixin Jueluo Zaizhen will inevitably turn over the account.
So, he began to struggle with embarrassment on his face.
Knowing that he is not an opponent, he has to do it.
Zhao Chuanxin, like Gu Zhiguan Yunchang, is a bully and flattering character.
I probably figured out the reason for this, so I let go of my followers.
At this time, a foreigner next to him said, "This friend, why don't you sit opposite me, there is a place here." Can you understand English? ”
The trains of this era were more advanced than the airplanes of later generations.
The cost of a ticket is often a few yuan, which is not affordable for ordinary families.
For example, if you want to drive more than 100 miles, many people rely on their legs.
On the train, you can often see foreigners and domestic dignitaries and nobles, and you can hardly see passengers with patched clothes.
This is a first-class carriage, and the tickets are more expensive.
This white man looks rich, and he should be middle-class.
Seeing that he was quite friendly, Zhao Chuanxin smiled and sat opposite him.
"Friend, did you have a conflict with them?"
Zhao Chuanxin shook his head and denied: "How come? We have a good relationship, we talked all the way before, and they had a good time. ”
Aisin Jueluo Zaizhen knew a little English, and in 1902 he represented the Qing court in England to attend the coronation of King Edward VII of the United Kingdom.
These few sentences are simple, and he roughly understands the semantics of Zhao Chuanxin.
It's not okay to be angry again.
Who's having a good time talking to you?
The foreigner shrugged: "It's best not to offend him, he should be a nobleman of the Qing Kingdom, the powerful kind, you can see it by looking at the top." ”
Zhao Chuanxin gave a thumbs up: "It's a bit level!" Don't worry, my friend, he's just in a moment of frustration and will figure it out. ”
"My name is Herbert Pontin, I'm from the UK, I'm a photographer and I'm interested in making films. I think you are suitable to be an actor because you are the most temperamental Chinese I have ever met. ”
"Huh." Zhao Chuanxin was happy: "Herbert, my friend. If you can talk, you can talk more, please continue! ”
"Haha, you're funny. I don't know what to call you? ”
"Ethan, just call me Ethan. Are you a director? Let's make a movie, I have all the names in mind, it's called - "Chinese Beat Britain, Japan, the United States and Russia", I will be the starring role! ”
“……”
Damn, is it really good that you're going to beat up my country in front of me like this?
Herbert Ponting laughed dryly.
He said: "I'm sorry, I'm interested, but I haven't set foot in the film industry yet. And what I want to shoot is not the kind of movie you said. As you know, our country's scientific expedition team is planning to go to the polar regions for scientific expeditions. I wanted to photograph the ecology of the polar regions. ”
In the past, Zhao Chuanxin fantasized about making a lot of money and traveling all over the world, including Antarctica.
It suddenly occurred to him that when he had checked the Antarctic data before, he seemed to have seen the name Herbert Pontin.
This old guy seems to have really gone to Antarctica and took a lot of photos and video materials.
He has always been interested in such a thing as leaving a name in history, and asked, "Then when do you plan to shoot?" Also, where are you going? Antarctica? ”
"You know Antarctica?" Herbert Ponting was surprised: "I thought that the people of your country only cared about state affairs at present. ”
"Hehe, you know, since the Qing court was dragged and forcibly opened the country, opened its eyes to see the world, the first thing I saw was a robber carrying a knife to the door. In this case, it is impossible to stretch the line of sight too far. ”
Herbert Ponting was slightly embarrassed, those robbers who came to the door with knives, they were British.
He argued: "This is a good thing, in fact, it is also for the Qing people to develop the economy......"
"Develop a few!" Zhao Chuanxin forcibly interrupted. "You wait, wait for the day I'm willing to move, I'll go to your UK to develop the economy. I let you never set the empire and see the enthusiasm of our outsiders! ”
"Uh, this ......"
The chatter is in full swing on their side.
The other side.
Yang Cuixi whispered in Aixin Jueluo Zaizhen's ear: "He can speak foreign languages!" ”
"Hmph, this person is despicable, shameless, rude, despises the court, and can speak foreign languages?"
At first, he could understand one or two words, but later Aixin Jueluo Zaizhen was completely blind.
"Don't you think it's strange? He is not afraid of your identity, master, and can speak foreign languages, this person must have a big background! ”
Aixin Jueluo Zaizhen's heart tightened and narrowed his eyes.
He lowered his voice and squeezed out a sentence between his teeth: "When I get to Yuan Weiting, no matter what the origin of this person is, I will definitely make him look good!" ”
The train arrived in Tianjin.
Herbert Ponting enthusiastically left contact information for Zhao Chuanxin.
said that if Zhao Chuanxin wanted to engage in the film industry, he could introduce him to one or two.
"Ethan, maybe you can't be the protagonist, but there is still hope for the supporting role."
", I play a supporting role for others, so is he worthy of the protagonist? On the contrary, if you decide to make a movie in the future, you can contact Xuantian Sect on Hong Kong Island and I will tell you the address. If you are outside the customs, you contact Du Lizi in Liaoxi. When the time comes, I'll buy the equipment and equipment, and you will shoot it. I have all the names of the movies in mind, just "The Great Qing Stallion, the Great War Day Never Sets on the Beautiful Girl", or "The Love of the British Empire", or "The Beautiful Legend of Sheffield", "Lust, England, Caution". ”
Herbert Ponting listened with a red face and red ears, and his breathing was heavy.
Good guys, feelings we don't set per capita slut, right?
"Ethan, you think of the name of the movie very well, but don't think about it again in the future, it's not funny."
"Who was kidding you? As long as you say you can make a film and want to make a movie, feel free to come to me. ”
Herbert Ponting was stunned, could it be that this person has a lot of financial resources?
But in his opinion, among the Qing people, some status people will go out with an entourage.
For example, the Qing court official next to him brought two guards.
But this person is single-handed, and sometimes he seems rude when he speaks, and he really doesn't look like the top of the Qing court.
He hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay, Ethan, I'll consider your proposal." ”
Immediately, the two said goodbye.
Because Zhang Zhankui was not notified, there was no pick-up.
After Zhao Chuanxin left the station, he looked at it very vigilantly.
Confirming that there is no one around to monitor and round up this time, even if Aixin Jueluo Zaizhen wants to find fault, it is impossible to shake people so quickly.
That's when he got into a rickshaw.
In the past, he was reluctant to take a rickshaw not because he was diligent, but at that time he felt that pulling a rickshaw was very hard, so he refused out of pity.
But then I figured it out: people rely on this to eat, and if you don't sit, they will lose an income, which is not beautiful!
"Master, pull me to the model prison."
The coachman didn't hurry away, and said tentatively: "Model prison, that's not close!" ”
"Let's go."
The coachman's eyes rolled: "Gotcha! ”
Put the rag on your shoulder, pull your leg and go.
Sure enough, it was not close, and after running for a long time, the coachman looked like he was almost exhausted before he reached the ground.
"It's you!"
"How much?"
The coachman coughed: "Chenghui, 2 pieces and 4 corners!" ”
"How much?" Zhao Chuanxin couldn't believe his ears. "2 pieces of 4 corners?"
He has always been like this, stingy with the rich and generous with the poor.
If the driver is honest in his account, he will not only pay for the journey, but also give a tip.
I've sat a few times before, and it's all like this.
But the coachman actually wronged him and quoted the price of a rip-off.
This is also because Zhao Chuanxin is dressed neatly, the clothes look very valuable, and he has a foreign accent, so he quoted indiscriminately with the coachman.
Seeing Zhao Chuanxin's reaction, the driver was not surprised.
This is true of every slaughtered guest.
"Yes, at such a distance, it's 2 pieces and 4 corners."
The price of a rickshaw is roughly calculated by distance.
Converted into the distance of later generations, around 1200 meters, it is roughly less than 1 corner of Xiaoyang.
Anyway, it's not that precise, and it's almost the same as asking for money, and neither side counts.
After all, those who can afford to sit on a rickshaw must be worth a lot of money. When you meet a foreigner, there is usually a little tip.
can be calculated according to this standard, Zhao Chuanxin broke the sky, that is, 1 piece of 3 jiao Xiaoyang.
For the sake of the tired and sweaty coachman, who is about to lose his strength, Zhao Chuanxin can easily reward a piece of ocean as a tip.
But the premise is that he gives, not is slaughtered.
Therefore, he stepped to the ground and retracted half of his foot: "You send me back to the place, and I will count your steps one meter at a time." me a dime, I'll break your legs......"
