Chapter 660: Uninvited Guest
The bombing of the train caused a lot of uproar.
Li Guangzong came out to the newspaper as soon as possible to clarify that Zhao Chuanxin was fine. But even his own Li Zhitao will be suspicious, let alone others.
But according to the surviving train conductor, since crossing the south bank of the Yellow River, Zhao Chuanxin has not been seen, and it seems that he quietly got off the train ahead of schedule, and the body can not be found in the carriage where the bombing derailed.
No one can tell whether he is alive or dead.
But at present, the great powers do not dare to gamble, because Li Guangzong's performance is too calm.
Others don't know Zhao Chuanxin's itinerary, but Li Guangzong does.
He said lightly: "I said, the head got off halfway, what are you worried about?" Let people continue to investigate the whereabouts of Eiji Asaobuki, even if they chase it to Japan, they will take the life of this dog thief. ”
……
Zhao Chuanxin is not there, and the world is running as usual.
It's not just Hankow.
In Guangdong, the people were already dissatisfied with the Japanese because of the "Erchen Maru Incident" last year.
Now that the train that Zhao Chuanxin was taking was bombed, the Japanese were very suspicious, because Asaobuki Eiji was the first to run away without three hundred taels of silver.
The boycott of Japanese goods brewed by the people of Guangdong has reached its peak in recent days.
The goods are difficult to sell, which makes the Japanese miserable.
They hurriedly published a newspaper to clarify, claiming that the bombing of the Jinghan Railway had nothing to do with their Japan, and that Eiji Asaobuki's unauthorized departure from his post would definitely be investigated to the end.
And in Shanghai Tang, a British businessman hired the Bayer Tram Company to operate a tram.
The tram ran on Shanghai for the first time, attracting a large crowd of onlookers.
The small tram is also divided into first and second class.
For second-class trams, the front of the train will be marked with the "second class" and the Arabic numeral "2", and the ticket price is different.
There are big players in Shanghai who have cards, and they have gone to buy first-class tickets to experience the feeling of taking the tram.
……
Zhao Chuanxin, who was far away in the northwest desert, had just finished cooking the third meal for Nikola Tesla, so he went to repair the wind turbine blocked by sand on the stone tower, went to wash his clothes, and was called by Nikola Tesla to carve a piece of metal, and just wanted to inlay a piece of fused silica glass on the north wall of the laboratory.
At this time, the laboratory ushered in an uninvited guest......
A flock of sheep, a sheepdog, a camel carrying blankets and water bladders, and a young girl carrying a slender stick arrived at the laboratory.
Zhao Chuanxin carried the glass, listened to the camel bell, squinted his eyes on the pergola, and was surprised to find that the little girl had run into the desert to graze.
Gulzar saw him and trotted over with his camel.
After the baptism of wind and sand, she was still delicate and dizzy, and her eyes were fluctuating with a happy smile, and she shouted happily: "Zhao Xin." ”
"Gulzar?" Zhao Chuanxin was stunned: "Why did you run to the desert to graze?" Do sheep eat even sand? ”
When Gulzar heard this, his steps slowed down, his face was ashamed, and he pinched the corner of his clothes and whispered: "I was grazing in Jijidun, and the snow there has melted. Remembering that you live here, and the sheep are full, I will come and see. ”
Zhao Chuanxin saw that her messy braids were stained with sand and dust, and her face was also dusty, and he couldn't help but laugh: "You come here." ”
Gulzar's shyness suddenly disappeared, and he flew over with a stick, and came to a sudden brake in front of Zhao Chuanxin.
Zhao Chuanxin shook off the sand boots, shook off the splashed sand, and took out a cowboy hat to put on her head: "So that the sun can't shine on your face, look at your black." ”
Gulzar couldn't help but touch his face, aren't all herdsmen this skin color?
She looked up and asked, "Do you like white skin?" ”
"Let me think, white, yellow, olive, brown, ah, am I so fraternal, it's amazing."
"......" After buying firewood and grass many times, the two were already cooked, and Gulzar kicked the sand: "You are brazen." ”
Zhao Chuanxin shook the sand again and said, "Seeing that it's getting dark, you won't be able to go back today, so stay here all night." ”
Gulzar looked at the complex and was surprised: "I've been here before, but I've never seen so many houses." Ah, what a solid wall. ”
She touched the rock wall and praised it.
Then he bit his lip in some frustration and said, "No, the area is open here, and the sheep will run away." I'm going to go to the three posts before dark, where I can take shelter from the wind. ”
Zhao Chuanxin put down the glass on his shoulder and walked towards the sheep.
Gulzar shouted from behind: "Zhao Xin, what are you going to do?" ”
Zhao Chuanxin didn't answer, put on mud trowel gloves, and the stone wall rose from the ground where he passed, spared a circle, and surrounded the sheep.
He turned around and grinned, "That way, you don't have to worry about the sheep getting lost." ”
Gulzar ran over in disbelief, touched the half-human stone wall and asked, "How did you do that?" ”
"I won't tell you."
Gulzar grabbed Zhao Chuanxin's arm and shook it: "Say it quickly......"
She doesn't have the notion that men and women don't kiss each other.
"Stop talking nonsense." Zhao Chuanxin stretched out his hand and added two oceans: "I'll buy you a sheep, let's eat mutton today." ”
In fact, whether Zhao Chuanxin bought Li Jiangong's leg of mutton or a sheep at this time, he gave too much money.
Gulzar shook his head, approached Zhao Chuanxin and whispered: "I can secretly give you one, Dadang and Ah Nang don't know how many sheep there are at home." ”
Zhao Chuanxin: "......"
But he stuffed the money into Gulzar's hand without saying anything.
Gulzar pouted.
Zhao Chuanxin was just about to jump in to catch the sheep, but Gulzar hurriedly commanded: "Catch that head, it is always the top person." ”
Sure enough, Zhao Chuanxin walked towards the ram, not only was it not afraid, but it also bowed its head and arched over.
Who is Captain Zhao?
He was quick-eyed, pressed his hands down, pressed the horns, and the ram did not move, and raised its hooves in vain to dig in the sand.
Zhao Chuanxin dragged the horns of the sheep out, and at this time, the fat shepherd dog barked wildly and bared its teeth and pounced on him.
Even if Gulzar shouted, he didn't listen, and turned into a berserker for the sake of the sheep.
But after the dog jumped up, how did he come and how did he go back, because Zhao Chuanxin kicked it lightly.
Zhao Chuanxin used a clever force and didn't hurt it, otherwise he could have kicked it to death.
The shepherd dog dared to go up and bite even if it met a wolf, but when it met Zhao Chuanxin, it had to hold its tail and retreat and whimper, because it could feel the disparity in strength between the two sides.
Coming to the stone wall, Zhao Chuanxin took out the elf carving knife and pointed at the ram's head, the ram's body was paralyzed, he held the sheep in one arm, jumped one and a half meters high, did not bend his knees after staying in the air, and went straight over the stone wall.
Gulzar looked stupid.
"What are you doing standing stupidly, go, follow me to pack up the sheep."
"Wait, I've brought shallots, I'll get them."
Gulzar nimbly climbed over the stone wall and went to the camel's back to get a bundle of shallots and a knife.
Zhao Chuanxin released the sheep's blood first and disemboweled.
Because she had only slaughtered people, not livestock, Gulzar not only pointed out, but even rolled up her sleeves to help, and her bloody hands did not care, obviously this was not the first time she had done this.
Zhao Chuanxin took him to the kitchen, where there was a coal stove made of rock, and the coal was purchased by him all the way to Lanzhou Mansion.
There must be coal mines in the area, but no major coal mines have been discovered at this time.
To be able to buy coal in Lanzhou Mansion, I have to thank one person, that is, Lanzhou Daodao Yin Peng Yingjia, this gentleman founded the Quangong Bureau Factory in Lanzhou Prefecture, not only gold, silver and copper factories, but also silk, weaving, glass, felling, copper and ironware, tanning and other projects.
Many factories use steam engines and coal.
When Zhao Chuanxin went to Lanzhou Mansion, he also heard that Peng Yingjia and Belgian Counselor Lin Ade had engaged in a Sino-foreign joint venture weaving bureau, and at the same time, Daxing education, Lin Ade served as an English teacher.
In fact, there were really a lot of officials who did practical things in the late Qing Dynasty.
A good deck of cards, let the Qing court play badly, no one else is to blame.
Zhao Chuanxin pointed to the coal stove and said, "You see, this stove can not only cook, but also heat several rooms in the tunnel where the flue leads to the room and the laboratory. ”
As soon as he entered the house, Gulzar felt very warm.
Zhao Chuanxin cut meat, marinated meat, and shallot and garlic, boiled oil, the stove was very strong, and the mutton slices were sliced after the oil temperature was seventy.
He skillfully tossed the spoon, and Gulzar just watched quietly from the side.
Zhao Chuanxin kept moving, and glanced back: "What are you looking at?" ”
"What are you doing?"
After speaking, Gulzar himself laughed first, this was all learned from Zhao Chuanxin after several contacts.
After the meat changes color, sauté the garlic slices until fragrant.
It's almost cooked, and then fry the shallots until soft.
Gulzar helped the cowboy hat: It is also mutton, why is it so fragrant when Zhao Xin makes it?
Zhao Chuanxin fried a large pot of mutton, put three plates and poured them inside, and boiled the cut noodles and put them in cold water: "You take two plates, go out of this door and turn right, go to the second door and cross the corridor, go to a house opposite the backyard, and hand the small plate to a pale little old man there, you eat first, I want to stew haggis." ”
It's time for Nikola Tesla's fourth meal.
"No, I'm going to eat with you......"
