"This ...... It's just a flower brand handle, which is worthless. Zhao Chuanxin smiled on his face, but his hand was not retracted, just stretched out in front of Zhuang Lefeng's eyes.

Zhuang Lefeng painfully handed over the brand in his hand. He is willing to give up gold and silver, but this brand has always been in love, and he is really distressed.

Zhao Chuanxin took a look, this brand is emerald green, with wave patterns carved on the top and carved below. The so-called horn is actually walrus tusk.

Walrus tusks are not big, so they can't be carved into large pieces. Like the brand in Zhao Chuanxin's hand, it is already a big one.

This thing needs to be softened with vinegar, and then infected repeatedly with secret pigments and special mud.

After that, the water is boiled and the ice is applied, and it is said that the craftsman will be able to listen to the sound, and then the horns will make a sound like the cracking of beef tendons.

Take it out and continue to infect, I don't know how many times it will be repeated, and the process is very cumbersome. Reading the book, it looks like a jade from afar.

But when you hold it in your hand, you know that this texture is not jadeite. But if you forcibly break it, you will find that the inside is really like jadeite, green and transparent, and it is not only the surface that has color.

Only a very small number of craftsmen know this skill. Later, it was directly lost. Zhao Chuanxin put the sign away: "Ah, you are so polite, how can I be embarrassed?" In the future, remember not to act for the tiger, otherwise Zhao will come to you for friendship. ”

"Don't dare anymore." Zhao Chuanxin finally came to Dahu: "Do you know what to do in the future?" Da Hu nodded hurriedly: "Got it." ”

"It's good to know, that's all for today." Li Shunde Hotel is the benchmark for Tianjin Wei to take the lead in entering the electric era.

Early on, there were generators and electric lights, telegraphs and telephones, and these were actually thanks to Gustav von der Celin, who did not know life and death on the ground.

These are all introduced by him. Some diners of the restaurant covered the bright afterglow of the electric lights on the windows with their hands, and saw that the streets outside were full of shadows, and the British army had arrived.

They are neat, well-read, and loaded with guns, and they walk into the calm pace of Li Shunde Hotel, which makes the diners feel a lot more at ease.

And Zhao Chuanxin took out his pocket watch and looked at it: "Okay, I'm very happy to make so many friends today." The green mountains do not change, the green water flows forever, we will meet again. Da Hu was anxious when he heard this: "Mr. Zhao, wait, please take this stone on my arm first." Seeing that Zhao Chuanxin seemed unmoved, he said again: "Mr. Zhao, I am willing to pay for another treatment in the future, please." He was worried that his arm would be worn out if it had been delayed for a long time.

Zhao Chuanxin stopped at this time and said pretendedly: "Oh, what are you doing so politely, it's true." Come on, I'll get you out of the way. By the way, how much does it cost? I must clarify that I am not greedy for money, I am just curious. As he spoke, he waved his hand, and the stone turned into sand again.

Dahu was relieved. He gritted his teeth and was heartbroken: "Five thousand." "Spending money is like water! Zhao Chuanxin patted him on the shoulder: "I, Zhao Chuanxin, never need an IOU to be a creditor." Know why not? "Aren't you greedy for money?

Da Hu thought he was worried and explained: "Don't worry, Mr. Zhao, I, Hu Hua's words have always counted. "Hu Hua is his Chinese name.

Zhao Chuanxin shook his fingers: "No need to explain, no one dares to owe Zhao money, because I can find him even if I hide at the ends of the earth, and tear him alive." Da Hu gave a cold war: "How can I give you money?" ”

"I'll come and find you then." Zhao Chuanxin decided to plant the seeds of a nightmare for him. Da Hu's face really changed drastically, is this going to use him as a long-term meal ticket?

At this moment, the sound of heavy military boots was remembered in the corridor outside. Zhao Chuanxin walked to the window, took out the elf carving knife, and the knife fell in his hand, and the whole window was torn apart.

Others hid far away, worried that the broken glass would splash down and cut themselves. At this time, there were already British soldiers shouting outside the door: "Listen to the people inside, immediately raise your hands and surrender, otherwise you will be killed." Zhao Chuanxin whistled, the whip of judgment rolled the scepter of redemption, and Zhao Chuanxin flicked it, and the whip poked out of the window.

Zhao Chuanxin pointed at Dahu again, signaling him to remember that there were still debts to be paid, and then jumped out of the window.

A group of diners ran to the window curiously to look. The yellow light of the street lamps is like the twilight of the gods. Zhao Chuanxin rolled the scepter of salvation hovering in the air with a whip and swung forward like a swing.

When the momentum was exhausted, the scepter of salvation was able to move, and was swept forward again by the whip of judgment, and continued to swing.

After swinging five times, it went straight to the end of the street. It was an eye-opener for everyone, and there was a lot of discussion. Outside, the British army, who was belated, heard no movement inside, and finally couldn't hold back and broke in.

Except for the corpse of the British policeman on the ground, the embarrassed Dahu and his wife Lou Henry at the dining table, the rest of the people crowded around the window and looked out.

A group of British soldiers looked at each other: "What's going on here......" After Zhao Chuanxin landed, like an old man walking after dinner, he went to the backyard with his hands behind his back and fetched Mishan.

Look left and right at no one, get on the horse and gallop. …… Visiting the Bureau, Yang Yide was just busy with work, and he hadn't even eaten a mouthful of hot food.

Tell your men to go outside and order a fried sauce noodle, and a elbow crisp to bring back. The meal was placed on the desk, and I just wanted to move the chopsticks.

At that moment, there was a knock on the door. He frowned: "Didn't you say don't come to disturb me?" As a result, people from outside came uninvited and pushed the door in.

After seeing that person, Yang Yide's anger suddenly subsided, and he stood up and was enthusiastic: "Oh, Brother Zhao is here, why didn't anyone report it." Zhao Chuanxin glanced at the food on the table, hurriedly stepped forward, squeezed Yang Yide away, and sat in his place: "I jumped out of the window and came in, the commotion tonight is a bit big, and I am afraid of implicating you when I come in openly." After speaking, he picked up the chopsticks and ate unceremoniously.

Yang Yide's face twitched. He was also hungry.

"A few of your friends, I have already sent them on the ship, activated my relationship, and sailed overnight to Hong Kong Island."

"Thank you so much, Brother Yang." Zhao Chuanxin ate a lot of food, very happy. The elbow crisp cut like a small nougat cube tastes crunchy.

The fried sauce noodles are cold, but the oily meat sauce is hot. Yang Yide asked: "What trouble did Brother Zhao get into?" ”

"There was a well-meaning American who had done something wrong. No, he learned from the pain and felt that he wanted to make up for it. It just so happened that he knew that I was a man of noble character and noble will, so he had to give me a sum of money. I hesitated, and finally reluctantly accepted it. The rest of the people were very excited, they were of inferior character, and they couldn't see this touching scene, so they wanted to slip away. I didn't allow it, so it dragged on until now. "Clinker, Yang Yide knows Zhao Chuanxin very well.

He was surprised: "Whose money did you rob?" So what are Americans called? How much was robbed? Zhao Chuanxin was displeased when he heard this: "Brother Yang, I said it all, this is a gift between friends." How did it get into your mouth and become a robbery? ”

"Okay, well, who do you say the giver is?" Zhao Chuanxin reported Dahu's name. Yang Yide said in his heart that this person was not welcomed in the Qing court, and it was not a big problem.

It's just that Gustav von de Celin is not very easy to handle, this person is close to the British, and the British are afraid that they will not give up.

So he hurriedly asked, "How is De Xuanlin?" Zhao Chuanxin has already eaten and wiped a large bowl full of fried noodles.

He sat down in his chair and burped comfortably: "He? He was so moved that he should have fainted, or perhaps died. After all, it's always light, it's not heavy, who knows. ”

"I know, I know it's like this......" Yang Yide wandered: "Who else besides De Xuanlin...... Uh, moved over? Zhao Chuanxin poured himself a glass of water: "There is also a Yankee named Romin Hitchcock, who is a photographer, he is so excited, I can be sure that he died on the spot." Yang Yide's throat was dry, and he beat his chest and fell to his feet: "Brother Zhao, you are confused." This Romin Hitchcock was famous, and he specialized in taking pictures for the New York Times. Was there a reporter next to him at that time? ”

"Yes, at first, the reporter was chattering crookedly, but then the kindness in my heart was awakened by me, and I woke up and stopped talking." Yang Yide smiled bitterly.

"Brother Zhao, you are not afraid of them, but this kind of thing happened in Tianjin Wei, and my brother is to blame." Zhao Chuanxin narrowed his eyes: "Brother Yang, I can't hide it, I've been very poor recently, and I really can't afford to bribe you." ”

"Ahem......" Yang Yide laughed dryly.

"This, what Brother Zhao said, it's just a courtesy exchange between friends." He just wanted money.

Zhao Chuanxin looked at the pocket watch and said, "This time I really don't have any money, wait until I come back from doing business in the United States and see if I can make money." If you are lucky, it is not impossible to have a relationship with Brother Yang when the time comes. Also, you send me a telegram to Hong Kong Island, I'll give you the address, and you ask the other side to send someone to pick up the boat. "Li Shutong, Ning An and Miao Cuihua have never been to Hong Kong Island, and Zhao Chuanxin is worried that they will be blind when they get there.

Hearing that there will be a chance to get money in the future, Yang Yide's sad face suddenly disappeared, and he patted his chest and promised: "This is all a small matter, and my brother will ensure that it will be done for you." ”

"Well, I'm well fed and drunk. Brother Yang, don't give me any money for the passage or anything, can I take your money? "What?

Yang Yide said: I'm Cao, I haven't gotten a penny for half a night, but I have to dig out some money?

He was thick-skinned, and he was silent with his hands behind his back, and he didn't hear it. Zhao Chuanxin got up and said happily: "Brother Yang is not the younger brother who said you, you are too picky." Come on, look at you, even if I'm bankrupt now, I can't even afford a bowl of fried noodles, and I can't even buy a ferry ticket, but can I ask for Brother Yang's money? "Actually, Zhao Chuanxin deliberately, he couldn't raise the appetite of this product more and more, and in the end, it would not end well.

Yang Yide's eyelids jumped. But there's no way to pay for it.

"Look at what you said, I still have two oceans here, you put them away, and buy a flatbread to eat on the way." That's his limit.

As a result, Zhao Chuan's salary was not too little, and he directly grabbed two oceans: "Oh, it's so polite, so be it." I'm leaving. As he spoke, he swaggered out.

This time, there is no taboo, and he is still singing: The scenery is good, and the big woolen stars get up early. I ran forward happily and walked all over Tianjin...... Yang Yide: "......"
