Wilhelmina grabbed his wrist and punched Hendrik in the nose.

As he ascended, Hendrik threw his head back and had a long nosebleed.

Brain melon seeds are buzzing.

Hendrick was stunned, and Wilhelmina was surprised.

When did you become so strong?

Hendrik was not convinced, and wanted to do it.

Wilhelmina raised her fist, another punch.

It's fast and powerful.

Hendrik didn't have time to react, his head tilted back again, staggered back, and held on to the pillar for a long time to recover.

I'm blanching, I can't say it, I can't beat it now?

In fact, Wilhelmina was taller among the women of this era, shorter but limited than Hendrick.

After she found that her strength had increased a lot, she suddenly gained confidence.

Thinking of Zhao Chuanxin's beating appearance, she sneered and said: "In the future, you are not allowed to step into the palace, go to your lover and your illegitimate children to live, don't say anything unexpected!" ”

Hendrik had many lovers and had many illegitimate children.

Hendrik really can't help it.

This is the Netherlands, not Germany.

He glared at William, but he didn't dare to say anything cruel because he was afraid of being beaten again. Then he wiped his nosebleed and walked away.

When he walked to the door, the guard looked at him with a strange face, and Hendrick said angrily, "What do you see? Look again, gouge out your eyeballs. ”

The guard restrained his smile, but his eyes were full of sarcasm.

After Hendrik left, Wilhelmina touched her lower abdomen, thought of something, and said to herself with the corners of her mouth raised: "I don't know if your father has received the news, he has no heirs, he must be very happy, right?" ”

……

Zhao Chuanxin has no joy or sorrow, no heart and no lungs.

No bad thing will stay in his heart for long.

I can't say that I didn't think about Wilhelmina, I can only say that he was about to forget about her.

Originally, Zhao Chuanxin was going to take his apprentices from Yunnan and Guizhou, over thousands of rivers and mountains to Sichuan, and finally go to the plateau and desert to see, and then cross the grassland back to Guanwai.

took Benjamin Goldberg to see this great river and mountain, and by the way, he also fulfilled one of his wishes.

In the 21st century, what Zhao Chuanxin wants to do most is to travel all over the country, which is the kind of model that carries a bag and says go.

But until time goes back, the first place on this wishlist has not been completed.

Now he has the conditions, both physically and financially.

However, being reminded of the coal mine by Double Happiness, Zhao Chuanxin had to go to Shanghai by water.

Under a towering clam tree, Zhao Chuanxin dried the clothes of Benjamin Goldberg and Zhao Yixian and gave them a raincoat that he had obtained from Clarys' shop in Panama.

He himself wore a Panamanian hat.

Zhao Chuanxin saw a stump of a tree that had been cut down next to it, and on the cross-section, the texture of the annual rings was like a clam shell, wide on one side and narrow on the other.

He said: "This is also a clam tree, this wood is good, it's a pity not to make a cutting board, I'll cut a piece." ”

As he spoke, he cut a piece of the stump with a diameter of more than one meter with an elf carving knife.

Zhao Yixian was shocked: "Zhao Shenxian, this is a divine weapon!" ”

Dry rice: "Wangwang ......"

"What did you say?"

Benjamin Goldberg said, "Dry rice keeps you from making a fuss and babbling all day long." ”

Zhao Yixian: "......"

Zhao Chuanxin put away the newly arrived vegetable pier and prepared to go back and deal with it to prevent cracking.

Clam trees, in the 21st century, have been cut down into "endangered", who would dare to use it at that time?

It's like the Kanwai cuisine at this time, and the recipe is a prison guide in the 21st century, so it is not systematic.

The trio braved the rain to travel south.

Zhao Yixian was still carrying the horsemouth fish, and he said with a bitter face: "Zhao Shenxian, is this fish still or?" ”

"Yes, why not?" Zhao Chuanxin pointed to the smoke from the chimneys of the village in front of him and said, "Go over there, find a place to wrap this fish in noodles and fry it, I can eat three bowls." ”

Benjamin Goldberg said, "I can do four big bowls." ”

Dry rice: "Wangwang ......"

Zhao Yixian was a little stunned by the dry rice, and hurriedly asked, "What did the dry rice say?" ”

Benjamin Goldberg said: "Dry rice said, there is not much fish, and the rest of it is round, and you have nothing to do." ”

"......" Zhao Yixian felt that he was killed by this dog, and he wanted to take back a city, and said proudly: "There is no wheat planted here, and you can't buy noodles with money, it seems that you have no good luck." ”

Zhao Chuanxin didn't reply: "It's okay, Zhao walked the rivers and lakes and prepared his own ingredients." ”

As he spoke, there was a pinch of slightly yellowed flour in the palm of his hand.

At this time, the flour, somehow, no matter how fine it was, was not as snow-white as that of later generations, which was really strange.

Zhao Yixian stopped talking.

What a fuck thing.

The three of them entered the village.

I didn't go far, I wanted to find a family nearby.

The local village is full of mud and yellow, the roof is mud tiles, the doors are all wood, and the doors are wide open during the day.

Before entering the hospital, Zhao Chuanxin heard a noise coming from inside.

"Boss, it's time for you to look after them."

"Third child, you've only been taking care of you for less than half a month, why is it my turn?"

"Hey, you two don't have to worry about it, who can do it for more than half a month?"

"Second brother, you said lightly, and it wasn't your turn, your sister-in-law has been complaining for a long time."

"Boss, otherwise, we don't care, right?"

"This ...... Will the village secretly poke us in the back? ”

"Who made the two old guys sick, and there could have been a and urine."

Outside, Zhao Yixian sighed when he heard it: "Hey, it's really the world is declining, and people's hearts are not ancient."

In this case, I'll wait for another one, this house must be stinky. ”

Benjamin Goldberg thought he was a true moral gentleman, but he just hated the smell of old people in his family.

Zhao Chuanxin did not move.

Listening to Zhao Yixian's words, he bared his teeth and smiled.

There is no filial son in front of the bed for a long time, right?

He stepped into the courtyard and shouted, "Is anyone home?" ”

A dark-skinned young man walked out: "Who? ”

Zhao Chuanxin put his hands in his pockets and said happily: "We will borrow your land to make a fire to make rice, and give you a little ocean, only using some water and firewood from your water tank." ”

He had a stove and charcoal, but not much.

When it's convenient, it's better to use local materials.

When the young man heard this, this is a good thing, and hurriedly nodded: "Yes, yes." ”

Two more men came out of the house, both older than him.

The two of them quit: "Come to our father's house together, you make your own money, right?" ”

According to the age, the last ones should be the eldest and second.

The third child knew that he was wrong, and smiled: "A little little yang, not much." ”

"One yard to one yard, that's not going to work."

"Alright, we'll split it evenly."

Zhao Chuanxin was still smiling: "Have you discussed it?" Let's go inside. ”

Zhao Yixian hurriedly pointed to the firewood shed in the courtyard: "Zhao Shenxian, let's not go into the house, just deal with it here." ”

"Eh......" Zhao Chuanxin stretched out his voice: "Zhao is a person with status, who eats in the firewood shed with status?" Someone who is known to be a joke. ”

When the brother heard this, this person was so angry, and he was well dressed, thinking that he was a rich lord, and he went out with two retinues and a dog, and one of the entourages turned out to be foreigners, which is amazing.

"Come inside, please, it's that my parents are old and sick, and there are some smells, don't blame me." The boss seems to be a bit knowledgeable and speaks very carefully.

Zhao Chuanxin waved his hand: "It's okay, when you go out, you can do whatever you want." ”

As he spoke, he put his hands behind his back and went into the house first.

He didn't wait for his brother's invitation, and directly lifted the curtain of the main house to look inside: "Hey, you old man looks good." ”

Sure enough, there was a smell of urine and feces in the room, and a skinny old couple on the bed had sallow faces, gray hair, and age spots on their faces.

Looks pathetic.

The brother scratched his head when he heard this, and Benjamin Goldberg and Zhao Yixian looked at each other, not knowing what kind of medicine was sold in Zhao Chuanxin's gourd.

The old man's teeth were almost gone, his lips were sunken, and he opened his mouth and hissed as if it was difficult to speak.

And Zhao Chuanxin patted his head, and said to the old man on the bed with excitement on his face: "Oh, I remember, old watch, do you remember me?" When you were a kid, you still played with me? ”

The old man's dizzy old eyes were very confused.

Dude, look at me, I'll look at you: what's the situation?

Zhao Chuanxin simply entered the house, not taboo the smell of the room at all, he came to the bedside, and grabbed the old man's dry hand: "Old watch, oops, I haven't seen you for a long time, I really miss you." How did you get sick like this? These three are my good nephews, right? Oops, I've grown so big in a blink of an eye, the years are urging people to get old, and in a blink of an eye, I'm over fifty years old. ”

"......" really doesn't look like a fifty-year-old.

Zhao Yixian covered his nose and followed in, gently tugged at Zhao Chuanxin's clothes, and whispered: "Mr. Zhao, did you recognize the wrong person?" ”

Who doesn't know that Zhao Chuanxin is a foreigner, even if he speaks official language, he has an accent outside Guanwai.

How can there be an old Jiangxi watch that is about to die?

Zhao Chuanxin didn't pay attention to him at all, took out three dragon yuan from his arms, first took a picture in the light, seemed to determine the amount, and then stuffed it into the old man's hand: "Old watch, don't say anything, we two brothers haven't seen each other for many years, I feel very uncomfortable seeing you sick like this." I didn't bring much money with me when I went out this time, and I spent a lot of money, so that's all I can do. When I turn around, I will send more people to send some over, and let the commander of the patrol battalion, Guo Renzhang and Guo Baosheng, personally deliver it, that dog thing, let me tell you, he gives me face. ”

As a result, although the old man couldn't speak, he pushed out vigorously and refused.

Zhao Chuanxin turned his back, except for the old man, others couldn't see his face.

He winked at the old man.

The old man seemed to understand, but he still didn't want to take it.

The brother looked at the three Guangxu Dragon Yuan, and his eyes were straight: "Dad, since it was given by your cousin, then you can take it, you can't brush off your cousin's kindness." ”

"yes, Dad, take it."

"Yes, Dad, if you honestly don't want to take it, you can go back to me......"

"Shut up, what nonsense?"

Since you have money, then your cousin is your cousin, and your parents are young, perhaps because they have a wallet and raise it properly. It is said that rich people drink ginseng soup every day, and they will definitely live a long life.

The corners of Zhao Chuanxin's mouth flashed with a sneer, and as soon as the old man saw it, Zhao Chuanxin put away his expression, raised his head and sighed: "Oh, old watch, you are still this stubborn character." Well, I get you. So I'm not reluctant. ”

When the brothers heard this, they immediately became anxious, and they just wanted to say something, but Zhao Chuanxin had already gotten up and turned to them.

Zhao Chuanxin said: "Three virtuous nephews, since I want to save face, I can't make him sad." Take care of him. I look at his complexion, and I'm afraid that time is running out. One day when he was dying, he went to the mansion of the commander of the patrol camp Guo Renzhang Guo and asked him to bring me a message. At that time, I will be worthy of my old cousin by paying three virtuous nephews for glory and wealth. ”

When the brother heard this, he couldn't help but be overjoyed: "Uh...... Uncle Cousin, are you serious? ”

Zhao Chuanxin glared at the boss: "What is this called?" The family broke the bones and tendons, and arranged for your brothers and sisters to be divided. ”

The third child boasted of being clever, knelt down directly, and kowtowed to Zhao Chuanxin: "Thank you, Uncle Cousin." ”

Zhao Yixian next to him was an old Jianghu, and he suddenly understood something, and he couldn't help but look weird.

The eldest and second were not to be outdone, and knocked them together.

Zhao Chuanxin was peaceful, and he suffered it for life.

When they got up, he handed them three silver dollars, one by one: "Uncle Cousin has no silver with him, so you can use this little money for drinking." I'm usually busy with official business, so I don't have much time to come over. When my old watch is gone, remember to look for me. ”

The third nodded like pounding garlic: "It must be." ”

The second child was a little biao, scratched his head and asked, "Uncle cousin, your family must be very rich, right?" ”

The boss pulled the second child's arm violently, and there was no one on the door all day long, can you ask this kind of thing?

Zhao Chuanxin's face was full of kindness: "My cousin has a lot of money, there are two shops on Ao Island, I am afraid that there are more than ten or twenty shops on Hong Kong Island, and there are also some industries outside the customs, don't be embarrassed to the three virtuous nephews, come to me when the time comes." ”

There is business in the north and south? Wow, that's amazing!

"Definitely, definitely." The brother was very excited. "We must take care of my father and mother."

"Okay, let's go and arrange it, pick some green onions, ginger and garlic, my cousin is hungry."

The dude was in a hurry to perform, and almost trotted out.

As soon as they left, Zhao Chuanxin said to the old man and lady on the bed: "Don't speak, just take it as true." If they dare to go to Guo Renzhang, Guo Renzhang will teach them to be human beings. ”

Tears flowed from the corners of the old man's and the old lady's eyes almost at the same time.

Benjamin Goldberg slapped his thigh: "Master, high, really tall!" ”

Zhao Chuanxin smiled: "The carving insect skill is not worth mentioning." ”

Zhao Yixian smacked his lips: "It's a pity that those three oceans are gone." ”

Zhao Chuanxin said: "It's a pity, it's not a pity. ”

The crowd was puzzled.

He pointed to a plum bottle in the corner and said, "Old man, I will ask your son to give you two old pensions to the end, so give me this bottle." ”

The old man nodded with tears in his eyes, but could not speak.

Zhao Chuanxin picked up the bottle and looked at it, the cap and the bottom of the bottle were respectively inscribed: ceremony, music, shooting, royal, book, number and other inscriptions, with beautiful shape and plump decoration.

Zhao Yixian was stunned: "Huh? This seems to be a Yuan blue and white porcelain vase from Gao'an's cellar. ”

"Hehe, you still have some knowledge." Zhao Chuanxin nodded at the old man and the old lady, and walked out of the room with the bottle.

Benjamin Goldberg was curious, "Master, is this valuable?" ”

"I don't know right now." Zhao Chuanxin shook his head: "But it's worth the old nose money for a hundred and ten years, and the value must be higher than three oceans." ”

Not long after, the brother came back with green onions, ginger and garlic, and carried a basket of eggs.

Under the guidance of Zhao Chuanxin, Benjamin Goldberg and Zhao Yixian teamed up to concoct it.

Although I was not very satisfied, I was satisfied.

After all, Zhao Chuanxin can't break his "rich" personality, and he can't do it himself.

After eating and drinking, the brothers diligently sent Zhao Chuanxin and others away.

When he arrived at the port, Zhao Yixian was still smacking Zhao Chuanxin's commotion, and said in pieces: "Zhao Shenxian is really a good means, I expect that the three brothers will support their father and mother." The most important thing is that I got a Yuan blue and white porcelain vase, blame me for my poor eyesight and didn't see it, the three brothers are also stupid, there are treasures at home but there are eyes that don't know Mount Tai......"

In his mind, although Zhao Chuanxin killed two birds with one stone, the most meaningful thing was the Yuan blue and white piece.

It can be seen that at this time, this plum bottle is also valuable.

may be used to being poor, and the three brothers don't think the bottles and cans are worth much; Maybe the old man knew, but when he saw the virtue of his three sons, he was unwilling to tell his sons the truth even if they were alive and suffering.

Zhao Chuanxin smiled: "Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and buy a ticket to Shanghai." ”

As soon as Zhao Yixian walked away, Benjamin Goldberg asked, "Master, why did you take him with you?" ”

Ganfan also wondered, and looked up at Zhao Chuanxin fixedly.

"What kind of person do you think this Zhao Yixian is?"

Benjamin Goldberg thought for a moment: "Philistine, slippery, misbehaved. ”

Zhao Chuanxin spread his hands: "Yes, since he is willing to be a cow and a horse, and has a dream of cultivating immortals, then it will be fulfilled for him." This is a free servant. ”

"Then what if he finds out that Master, you lied to him?"

"Then cut him, and then let him get out, he will peel his skin if he dares to fart." Zhao Chuanxin sneered.

……

Shanghai.

The residence of the Consul General in Shanghai, Jemeson.

The personnel of the Baojin Mining Company, headed by Qu Benqiao, are negotiating with the British Fu Company headed by the British Consul General in Shanghai, Jemeisen.

Holding a cigar and a suit and leather shoes, Jemeisen sat on the sofa and crossed Erlang's legs and said, "5 million taels of silver, this is already the biggest concession we can make." ”

Qu Benqiao shook his head: "It's too much, I can only give 1.5 million taels of silver." ”

Jemeisen sneered: "That's impossible, we can't recover the cost of this amount." ”

Feng Jichuan looked at Zhemeisen's arrogant and smug posture, and was inevitably annoyed, and sneered: "What is the cost of the British Fu Company? Does it cost £20,000? ”

20,000 pounds is the price of the British Fukong glove white wolf to plunder the mining rights in Shanxi.

When converted into silver, it is only more than 200,000 taels.

Jemeisen was unmoved: "Gentlemen, in our West, investment is all about getting a return. Why do you think that we can fulfill you without expecting anything in return? ”

Qu Benqiao argued: "But if it is an investment by improper means, it is unreasonable to seek returns." ”

Jemison's attitude was as lazy and arrogant as all the English aristocrats, and he said lightly: "It seems that we can only discuss it again, so let's stop it for today." ”

Directly issued an eviction order.

Qu Benqiao and the others had no choice but to leave.

As soon as they left, someone asked Jemeisen: "Consul, their international students are on strike and marching, and some Japanese students have committed suicide by jumping into the sea to protest, and the matter is very big, otherwise ......?"

Jemeisen interrupted him: "It's their own business, and the Chinese only dare to go around in the nest." Don't worry, he will compromise, the price in my heart is 2.75 million taels of silver, not a single cent less. ”

It's a big chapter.,It's really diligent.。 Say to the mirror: You have worked hard.
