[I have smelled the war, and I have seen the afterimage of the war. 】

[But the city of runes is still calm. 】

Zhao Chuanxin teleported the sea man grass over, and the price was: 200 gold coins/0.1 ball sand.

[The seafaring grass that has just been put on the shelves and its unsightly appearance is not cared for. 】

[Until noon, a bachelor of natural sciences wearing a first-order and third-order rank entered the store, he bought glass test tubes and tea leaves, and finally set his eyes on the sea man grass on the shelf. 】

[Level 3 Bachelor of Natural Sciences asks: What is this?] 】

[Dudu craned his neck and explained seriously: Sir, this is sea grass, only 200 gold coins/0.1 ball of sand. 】

[The third-level bachelor of natural sciences looked at Dudu's furry face, smiled and said: As long as? Did you know that this is already sky-high? What does it do? 】

[Dudu scratches his head: Sir, it can repel worms, worms in the stomach.] 】

[The third-level bachelor of natural sciences restrained his smile, reached out and touched the sea grass, put it under his nose and sniffed. 】

[His face suddenly became solemn. 】

[He said: Give me 200 gold coins of sea human grass.] 】

[Dudu shakes his head: 200 gold coins/0.1 ball of sand, but we have to sell at least one whole tree, which needs to be weighed.] 】

[The third-level bachelor of natural sciences paid and left after weighing the scale. 】

Zhao Chuanxin closed the "Old God Codex", and it was harmful, and it was unremarkable for another day.

November 14, heavy snowfall.

Hankou followed with a little snowflake, but it melted when it landed.

The temperature is not much higher than that of the Hahama Mansion, but the damp cooling penetrates into the bone marrow.

Zhao Chuanxin lit the fireplace early in the morning, practiced a set of balancing techniques after eating, and lay in front of the fireplace to watch the snow fall outside the window.

Until Chi Sheng came to the door tremblingly.

"Headmaster, it's snowing in Hankou too, how fresh it is."

He didn't think of himself as an outsider at all, and ran to the fireplace to bake the fire.

Zhao Chuanxin saw that he was carrying a coarse cloth bag, which should contain paper, pens and newspapers.

Zhao Chuanxin casually took out a sheepskin bag and threw it over: "Take this in the future, it's angry." ”

It's a handbag, it doesn't hold much, just enough to hold paper, pen, paper, and a little money.

After a lifetime, I turned it over and over again, the first layer of cowhide bag, single-sided perforated fine line double wave stitched edges, delicate and beautiful, novel and unique.

"Ah, principal, carry the bag sent by the principal, do things for the principal, and be the lackey of the principal......" The face was not red and breathless, and he said flattering words: "I sent to marry a mother-in-law and work for the principal together, and my family has been urging me to get married, but I haven't seen the right one yet." ”

"No, wait until I see you, she can work for me by herself, and husband and wife will not be blessed together." Zhao Chuanxin took a sip. "It's also urgent to urge marriage, if the marriage is beautiful, can anyone still urge it? You see, if there is a big ocean on the ground, no one urges you to pick it up, everyone rushes to pick it up. ”

“……”

I blanched, what I said was so reasonable, I couldn't refute it.

When I went downstairs, I saw Liu Huaqiang with a group of students, and went to Hanyang Iron Works with two foreign teachers to study on the spot.

Everyone greeted Zhao Chuanxin one after another, and Liu Huaqiang came out of the queue and handed the money to Zhao Chuanxin: "Principal, this is the education fund I got back with Ueno Junichi last night, a total of five hundred yen." ”

"Say, did you give four thousand five hundred dollars?"

Liu Huaqiang was stunned: "Really, that's all, at first he wanted to give two hundred, but I was worried that the principal would misunderstand me and give three hundred, so he deliberately asked him to make it up." ”

Zhao Chuanxin touched his chin thoughtfully: "I said I would make friends, but this product didn't treat me as a friend, he didn't respect me." ”

Liu Huaqiang: "......"

Zhao Chuanxin handed the money back and waved his hand: "Wait for it to be merged into the public account." ”

Then he took Chi Sheng's majestic and high-spirited spirit to the temporary office of the peacekeeping bureau.

On the street outside the office, Zhao Chuanxin saw a little beggar.

In these days, beggars are nothing unusual.

But this little beggar, Zhao Chuanxin is a little familiar.

When the other party saw Zhao Chuanxin, his face showed a little excitement and expectation.

Zhao Chuanxin thought as he walked, and then walked into the house with a thoughtful face.

Little beggar: "......"

Shouldn't you stop and reminisce carefully, and then suddenly come forward to say hello?

At this time, Caprivi and Ishida Teruyuki, both parties had already arrived early.

It's just that in terms of momentum, the judgment is made.

Caprivi came with two German soldiers, loaded with guns and ammunition, and guarded the left and right.

And Ishida Teruyuki only carried a Japanese samurai with a long knife at his waist.

No matter how high the martial arts are, you will be knocked down with one shot.

So Caprivi stared at Teruyuki Ishida with a gloomy face, and although Teruyuki Ishida was unconvinced with his neck, he looked very weak-hearted.

Seeing Zhao Chuanxin, both sides hurriedly got up to salute.

In addition, there were also some witnesses from all walks of life, such as Jin Shihe, the promoter of the Huguang Foreign Affairs Bureau, Zhan Guishan, the translator, the British Consul General in Han, Fareis, the French Consul General, Du Lifang, the German Consul General in Han, the German Consul General in Han, the director of the German Concession Industry Bureau, Shi Listing, the Japanese Consul General in Han, Ueno Junichi, the Governor of Huguang, Chen Kuilong, the Governor of Huguang, Qi Yaoshan, the superintendent of the Han Huang Dedao and Jianghan Customs, and reporters sent by several newspapers to record the records......

Zhao Chuanxin called for him, and these people didn't dare not give face.

Zhao Chuanxin waved his hand: "Hu Cong guards go out." ”

After the scene was quiet, Zhao Chuanxin stood on the temporary high platform built of wooden planks, holding the case with both hands, and looking at the wolf.

I was envious of it all my life.

A manly man should be like that.

He felt that the next moment, Zhao Chuanxin should be able to stretch out his hand: I, Zhao Chuanxin, make money......

Clinker Zhao Chuanxin snapped his fingers at him.

Chi Shengsheng was a clever man, and immediately took out a stack of newspapers from the first layer of leather bag, split it and distributed it to the witnesses present.

However, it was not sent to either of the parties.

As a result, Caprivi and Teruyuki Ishida scratched their hearts, especially when they heard strange voices and strange and sympathetic glances coming from the left and right.

Caprivi lost that confident sense of superiority, and Teruyuki Ishida felt his scalp tingle.

The two of them seemed to be crawling with ants, and they became restless.

At this time, Shi Listing, the general director of the Ministry of Industry of the German Concession, asked: "Mr. Zhao, I have subscribed to every issue of "Hankou Zhongxi Daily", but I have never read this one. ”

He was questioning the authenticity of the newspaper.

Chi Shengsheng's face froze, and he looked at Zhao Chuanxin.

Zhao Chuanxin did not panic: "Rare and strange, this is the editor-in-chief of "Hankou Zhongxi Bao" learned of the seriousness of the matter and urgently typeset and printed it overnight, and it will be released at six o'clock in the evening, I just went to get a few copies in advance." ”

Shi Listing nodded, although he felt that something was wrong, he also accepted Zhao Chuanxin's words.

Zhao Chuanxin said: "Okay, after reading it, you know the ins and outs. Both parties are at fault in this matter. Caprivier prostitute doesn't pay for prostitution, wrong. Teruyuki Ishida was wrong to gather thugs to beat people because Caprivi did not pay for prostitution. ”

Ishida Teruyuki was anxious: "Arbitrator, please listen to me." ”

"But it doesn't hurt to talk about it."

Teruyuki Ishida defended himself: "On that day, I did gather men, but I only surrounded him and asked for money, and at most a few times I pushed him, and Mr. Caprivi slandered me and beat people. ”

Zhao Chuanxin looked at Caprivi, who was blushing like a monkey's ass.

Caprivi thought that Zhao Chuanxin would whitewash his behavior, but he didn't expect to say it in a grand manner.

And that newspaper ......

He really didn't dare to imagine that if this newspaper came out and the whole world knew about his scandal, how would he go out to meet people in the future?

I'm afraid that he even reported the ugly thing of him being recruited by a prostitute?

His eyes wandered, and then he looked at Ishida Teruyuki viciously: "He beat me, he beat me to bedridden." ”

That's already it anyway.

"Nonsense!" Ishida Teruyuki immediately went down and tore up: "Caprivi, you are clearly infected with flower willow disease, and your lower body is ulcerated, so you are bedridden." ”

As soon as these words were made, the Witnesses in the room immediately laughed in low voices.

What a farce.

It's really worth it today, and the fare is worth the fare.

Only the acting German consul general in Han, Mu Fuling, turned black as the bottom of a pot.

Caprivi really disgraced the face of the German Empire.

"Silence!" Zhao Chuanxin knocked on the startled wood and made a "bang" sound.

The audience was excited.

Zhao continued: "Ishida Teruyuki said that he didn't hit anyone, while Caprivi said that he beat people. That being the case, late in life, the lights are coming! ”

Chi Shengsheng immediately lit a wind lantern and stepped forward with the lamp.

Zhao Chuanxin took Chi Shengsheng and came to Caprivi's side with a lamp: "Take off your clothes." ”

Caprivi was buzzing with melon seeds, and subconsciously asked, "Why?" ”

The corners of Zhao Chuanxin's mouth twitched: "This is called - lantern damage assessment." One person carries a lantern, two people assess the damage, and the three parties mediate. This is the industry rule set by our peacekeeping bureau, starting with me. ”

Among the witnesses, Jin Shihe, Zhan Guishan, Qi Yaoshan, Chen Kuilong and others were full of question marks. They have read the book for so many years, and they have heard this "idiom" for the first time.

Caprivi: "......"

He looked at Zhao Chuanxin with a begging gaze.

Zhao Chuanxin narrowed his eyes and said coldly: "Do you take it off or not?" ”

Caprivi really didn't dare to anger Zhao Chuanxin, just because after Zhao Chuanxin gave him an injection, his condition improved greatly, and now he dares to walk on the ground.

Two or three more injections, and you may be cured.

In this era, if the disease cannot be effectively contained, if the ulcer area is infected, it is really fatal.

He could only take off his clothes with a numb scalp.

Zhao Chuanxin took out a small stick, handed the lamp to Chi Shengsheng, and in front of everyone's eyes, the small stick pointed at Caprivi's upper body: "There is a bruise here, huh?" It doesn't look like it's typed, oh, it turned out to be a mark from a bedridden. ”

Everyone: "......"

Chi Sheng's photos inch by inch, Zhao Chuanxin looked for them inch by inch, very fine, even behind the ears and on the scalp carefully.

Everyone admired it when they saw it: Sure enough, it was a lantern to determine the damage, and they didn't deceive me.

In the end, in addition to the ulcer scab on his lower body, Zhao Chuanxin also found three bruises on his right shoulder and left rib.

It may be caused by pushing and shoving, or it may be really hands-on.

Zhao Chuanxin also asked Xingyue to probe the bruises on the ribs and see if there were fractures, and Xingyue gave a negative answer.

Zhao Chuanxin finally straightened up and said: "After identification, there are a total of three injuries, all of which are minor injuries, and it is true that Ishida Teruyuki beat people." ”

Teruyuki Ishida was in a hurry.

How can you take money and not do anything?

In this way, how can you get revenge on Caprivi?

Zhao Chuanxin didn't finish his words: "However, Caprivi is still at fault, the fault is that he abolished the public because of his private grievances, and because of his private grievances, he wants to start a war with Japan." Zhao loved peace all his life and would never allow this to happen. ”

The crowd was in an uproar.

Caprivi was in a hurry: "I don't have ......"

Zhao Chuanxin shook his palms, and Chi Shengsheng presented the record of the previous conversation.

Zhao Chuanxin: "The German officer Caprivi was angry and admitted that he wanted to start the German-Japanese war, but Ishida Teruyuki did not dare to speak, the war was dangerous, and when Hankou was in danger of survival, there was an arbitrator of the Peacekeeping Bureau, Zhao Chuanxin, who loved peace and valued private morality, and immediately initiated ......mediation."

"I ...... I didn't ......," Caprivi wanted to quibble.

Zhao Chuanxin glared: "I was not the only one who was there that day, do you want me to call the two doctors' witnesses to face each other?" ”

"Ah......h

Maybe the doctor was afraid of him, but he believed that the doctor was more afraid of Zhao Chuanxin, especially the Belgian doctor, Zhao Chuanxin really dared to kill him.

Caprivi had no choice but to say, "That's just my angry words, and I can't take them seriously." ”

Zhao Chuanxin stood with his hands in his hands and looked at the ceiling at a forty-five degree angle: "You didn't take it seriously, but Zhao was concerned about the Chinese and foreign people in Hankou, but he took it seriously." ”

"Ah......h

And the witnesses whispered.

It seems that this Caprivi is really stupidly threatening to start a war, rather than Zhao Chuanxin's words.

Caprivi looked at Mu Fuling and said to him from the air: "Consul General, I really didn't want to start a war. ”

Mu Fuling was angry, snorted coldly, and then got up: "Zhao ...... Arbitrator, can I say a word? ”

"But it doesn't hurt to talk about it."

"Caprivi doesn't have the right to start a war, so, as he said, it's just angry talk, it's all a misunderstanding."

He must stress that war is no joke, especially since the Japanese Consul General Ueno was also present.

Zhao Chuanxin hated the iron and smashed the table: "Zhao is not in the same sky as the war, how can this matter be joked?" ”

Mu Fuling's body trembled: "I believe that after this lesson, he will never dare again." ”

Caprivi nodded hurriedly: "Yes, I don't dare anymore." ”

Zhao Chuanxin nodded, and looked at Ishida Teruyuki again: "What about you?" ”

Ishida looked at the excitement, he was not afraid of being embarrassed, but he noticed that things had taken a turn for the better, and he was secretly poking and prodding, and subconsciously blurted out when he heard the words: "I dare next time." ”

The audience was in an uproar.

Clinker Zhao Chuanxin smiled and nodded: "Although it is spurned by the world for operating Fengyue places, it is no problem to defend your rights and interests." ”

Teruyuki Ishida was triumphant, his nostrils facing the sky.

Zhao Chuanxin tapped the shocked wood: "The loss has been approved, and Caprivi must pay 5 yen to Ishida Teruyuki." ”

It's not a lot of money, but Ishida Teruyuki felt exhaled and raised his eyebrows.

But he didn't wait long for him to be proud, and Zhao Chuanxin said: "Because the operation of Fengyue is not tolerated by morality and law, the 5 yen will be confiscated by the Peacekeeping Bureau." ”

"This ......," Teruyuki Ishida bewildered.

The crowd was secretly happy.

Zhao Chuanxin continued to say seriously: "Caprivi has three minor injuries, and Ishida Teruyuki must pay 20 yuan for Dayang's medical expenses. Since I was the one who treated Caprivi, the 20 oceans were given to me directly. ”

"Ah......h

I'm blanching.

The loss of both sides of the relationship finally went to Zhao Chuanxin.

Again, this amount of money doesn't matter, but Ishida Teruyuki felt that he would lose 20 yuan, but Caprivi only needed to pay 5 yen, and his heart was suddenly unbalanced.

Just as he wanted to speak, Zhao Chuanxin spoke again: "In view of Caprivi's threat to start a war, which has brought a huge psychological and economic burden to the people of Hankou, many Chinese and foreign people fled with their families to escape the war, causing irreversible economic losses. and wasted the resources of the peacekeeping bureau for no reason, so a fine of 1,250 yuan was fined. For the first offense, it will be converted into four hundred yuan, and the fine must be paid to the Peacekeeping Bureau. ”

I blanched ......

When did the Chinese people in Hankou flee with their families?

None of you here have seen or heard of it.

And the fine can be discounted by four?

Okay, good, one person carries a lantern, two people assess damages, three-party mediation, a four-fold fine, and a zero tenth account.

The parties on both sides did not get their hands on it, and let the peacekeeping bureau take it all.

Caprivi's mood was extremely complicated.

But at this time, he still has one more thing to ask Zhao for a salary.

He said, "Mr. Zhao, please continue to treat me......

Zhao Chuanxin happily came to him and said loudly: "There is no problem with the diagnosis and treatment, but this time I will not charge the consultation fee." ”

Everyone said: You are dark enough, 500 oceans, and if you don't accept it, you should share it.

But Zhao Chuanxin continued: "From the perspective of justice, this matter is over. But privately, I don't like how you behave, so I'm going to slap you twice and pay for the consultation, are you willing? ”

"This ...... Willing. ”

What are the two slaps, curing the disease is the most important thing, and it is better to die than to live.

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Chuanxin raised his hand and went around with two big arms.

Smack!

Caprivi's head was pumped and his cheeks were visibly swollen, and he didn't even react.

The crowd was in an uproar.

Zhao Chuanxin straightened his back and said proudly: "That's right, Zhao doesn't love money, but he is jealous and hateful, and he can't see dirty things in the world." ”

Then he whispered to Teruyuki Ishida next to him: "Okay, the contemptible man keeps his promise and helps you beat Caprivi in court." ”

Only Teruyuki Ishida and Caprivi could hear this.

Caprivi: "......"

Teruyuki Ishida: "......"

Blanch, in order to pretend to be forced, you are really unscrupulous, and you will take advantage of all the benefits.

But strictly speaking, Zhao Chuanxin did fulfill his promise.

Finally, Zhao Chuanxin concluded: "All the money, both parties will be handed over to the arbitrator of the Hankou Peacekeeping Bureau before 6 o'clock tomorrow night, and there shall be no mistake or delay, otherwise Zhao will come to the door in person to ask for it." Meeting. ”

With that, go out with your hands behind your back.

He left, but the rest of the people were in no hurry to leave.

Zhan Guishan whispered to Jin Shihe and Qi Yaoshan: "This Zhao charcoal worker is a bit excessive, just a little trivial thing to slander five or six hundred oceans. ”

Qi Yaoshan shook his head: "You only look at one of them, but you don't look at the second." Zhao Chuan's salary is true, but what is the reasoning behind this matter? Zhao Tangong repeatedly professed to love peace and mediated disputes in a grand manner. If, in the future, we have a conflict with foreigners, and we can settle the dispute by spending only a few hundred taels of silver, how much silver can you save? ”

Jin Shihe and Zhan Guishan gasped.

The Qing court often paid compensation to foreigners for land cession.

How many handfuls are a few hundred oceans?

If Zhao Chuanxin, the peacekeeping bureau, can solve all kinds of incidents in the future, it will save the old nose silver.

People from all walks of life in other countries also have other considerations.

Shi Listing, the general director of the Ministry of Industry of the German Concession, said to Siemens & Co., Ltd., Kleme, the representative of Bolwen & Co., and the representative of British Tobacco Co., Ltd., Fornodeshan, and others: "Have you ever thought that in the past, Zhao Chuanxin was a moody butcher and executioner, but now with the Peacekeeping Bureau, his cold-bloodedness and cruelty can become a weapon in our hands at some point. There will be wars between countries, and the same is true for businessmen and merchants. ”

The crowd was thoughtful.

A fool sees only money in his eyes, but a shrewd man sees a lot of money in his eyes......

Politicians from various countries are thinking that with the Peacekeeping Bureau, Zhao Chuanxin will not be able to kill people for no reason in the future, which is equivalent to putting a shackle on himself.

It can be regarded as the greatest significance of today's farce.

It's just, hehe, they think too much.

……

Outside the door, Zhao Chuanxin saw the little beggar again, and after thinking about it, he walked towards the little beggar.

But behind, Caprivi quickly chased after him, running in a strange manner, panting and saying, "Mr. Zhao, wait a minute......"
