Zhao Chuanxin picked up several rifles and revolvers on the ground.
The standard weapons of the French army are very strange.
Take the Marseillaise 1892 revolver. People's revolvers are also called revolvers because the wheel swings to the left, which makes loading easier, but the Marseillaise 1892 has to swing to the right.
Not to mention the bulky Lebel 1886. This gun was used from the Eight-Nation Allied Forces' invasion of China to World War I, and was even used by the French army in World War II.
Zhao Chuanxin will never look down on this kind of weapon. If he takes it back to Lugang Town, the members of the insurance team will feel disgraced if they take another look at it.
But there is someone I definitely like, and that person’s surname is Sun
Abao walked around the corpse and the shocking blood, and walked over, "You, are you okay?"
The first time he said caring words to the perverted monk made Abao blush.
But at the moment when she was desperate, Zhao Chuanxin appeared like a god descending from the earth. She was afraid that she would never forget that hateful face with a playful smile in her life.
"I" Zhao Chuanxin reached into his arms, touched the bulletproof vest made of war-scarred leather inside, and said proudly, "The poor monk has already cultivated the indestructible body over the long years. , what can happen?"
Now, when he is not wearing resolute armor, he usually wears a bulletproof vest.
Coupled with the scale shield, Zhao Chuanxin dared to fight hand to hand with confidence.
A Bao is doubtful.
At this time, a little head popped out of the stairs, and Benjamin Goldberg shouted, "Master, are there any enemies?"
Behind his head, Zhao Yixian appeared again head.
When the two heard the gunshots and went out, they did not show up in a hurry, but waited confidently.
Let the master kill for a while longer
Sure enough, there was no movement. When the two came over to take a look, the master was standing innocently in a pool of blood with his hands behind his sleeves.
Zhao Chuanxin waved, "Forget it, come with me. Let's visit Hu Gengtang, who is known as the most generous person in Hankou. We will stay at his house tonight, and we can have a late night snack by the way." Maybe, Hu Gengtang can still spend money to satisfy Zhao Yixian, because they are the same people."
A Bao looked at him sideways. .
Is this so?
Although he has experienced it many times, Zhao Yixian still cannot adapt to the scene of rivers of blood.
He looked up at the roof of the shed and walked past the corpses and blood with a pale face before he dared to breathe.
Being blown by the cold wind outside made me feel better, at least I didn’t feel sick anymore.
Zhao Yixian asked around on the road, and sure enough, the people in Hankou didn't know that Hu Gengtang was young. As for reviews, they are mixed.
In 1872, when Hu Gentang’s father was dying, he divided several of his properties among his five children. Each person also received 1,500 taels of silver and three salt coupons.
Hu Gentang started with these capitalsHe immediately registered with the Salt Bureau and opened a store in Guangchang and Yancang near Hankou Shi Wharf to transport and sell Huai salt.
Business is open and becoming more and more popular.
Hu Gentang tasted the benefits, so he not only managed his own salt tickets, but also paid to rent ten salt tickets from others.
After eight years of doing this, he bought Guangchang and Yancang with 16,000 taels of silver.
Hu Gengtang was never satisfied. Guangchang and Yancang were obtained. Based on this, he filled in the stone dock to build a house, boiled the finished cannibals in warm water, renovated them, and expanded the scale of the warehouse.
Reuse these warehouses to collect rent. In addition, he was rich, but the other brothers were not as good as him in business, and finally sold their salt warehouse to Hu Gengtang.
Hu Gentang relies on rent collection, and his annual net rental income exceeds 10,000 yuan.
Gradually, everyone saw that salt stamps were profitable. When the price of a single salt stamp rose to 3,000 taels of silver, Hu Gengtang bought 49 salt stamps in one go.
Yangzhou and Jiangxi both have his semicolon.
Annual profit, at least 100,000 yuan.
Hu Gentang was shrewd and immediately invested in real estate after making money.
He built an alley on Qingfen Road in Hankou, named Biyunli.
The entire house in Biyunli alley belongs to him.
The person Zhao Yixian asked about was the worker who carried cattail bags for Hu Gengtang.
The worker was full of complaints and complained: "The imperial court gave unified specifications for cattail bags, and the price was the same. Carrying salt bags was ten cents a bag. But Hu Gengtang exploited my resources and only gave five cents, but he bought them "A corner of the salt man."
After all, Zhao Yixian is a person who studies arithmetic and is good at calculations. He clapped his fingers and said, "One salt ticket, 800,000 kilograms of salt, packed in 4,000 cattail bags." One time, he wanted to exploit 400 yuan, adding up."
This made Zhao Yixian envious.
This money comes as easily as a strong wind.
He could not sympathize with the workers who were being exploited, but he could sympathize with the speed at which Hu Gentang made money
The worker had a look on his face and said bitterly, "Who says it's not the case?" "
No matter what, I have found out the location.
Zhao Chuanxin and his party came to Biyunli and found that both sides of the street were full of carved buildings, which were spacious, tall and noble.
Zhao Yixian said, "This is the Wind and Rain Corridor."
The so-called Wind and Rain Corridor is because Hankou is hot and rainy in summer. When walking on this street, pedestrians don't even need to hold an umbrella. , the emphasis is on generosity, which shows the luxury of the Hankou salt merchants.
Benjamin Goldberg marveled, "It costs a lot of money, right? The businessmen here know how to enjoy it. Neither the Rockefeller nor the Morgan family does this."
Walking through the wind and rain corridor , came to the Hu family mansion.
Zhao Yixian stepped forward and knocked on the door.
The concierge opened the door and asked, "What business do you have?"
A Bao gathered his mood and cupped his hands."Please excuse me, shopkeeper Tong Binghu, and tell Taihu A'bao to come and see you."
The concierge rolled his eyes and said, "Come back tomorrow. It's so late for the master to go to bed."
< p>A Bao was anxious, "Excuse me, I have dealt with shopkeeper Hu several times and we have quite a good relationship."The concierge, however, retracted his head and wanted to close the door.
But he tried hard, but the door didn't move at all.
Looking up in shock, he saw a bearded monk holding half of the door firmly.
The concierge spoke angrily, "What kind of alms are you doing, monk? You've come to the wrong place. We have no leftovers."
Zhao Chuanxin bared his teeth and smiled, and the little chicken nodded with pecks of rice. "I know, I know, your master prefers leftovers."
The concierge's face froze. This was something that everyone in Hankou laughed at, but it was embarrassing for the monk to say it in a big way.
He was completely angry, "What do you mean by running wild without even looking at the place?"
"Hey, hey, don't be angry." Zhao Chuanxin said cheerfully, "There are no leftovers." , It’s okay to give him a little money, but it doesn’t need to be too much. Just give him eight thousand taels of silver, which will be enough for the poor monk to eat and drink for half a month.”
Oh
This monk is really a prodigal. , Eighteen thousand taels of silver, enough to spend half a month
I go whoring outside every day, so I can’t spend so much
“Let go, otherwise I will call the nursing home. "
Zhao Chuanxin stepped forward and hugged the concierge's neck, "If you say that, I'll take it as your consent. Let's go inside and get the money."
" Hey, hey, let go, let go."
A Bao felt that numb scalp again.
But Benjamin Goldberg and Zhao Yixian were already used to it and followed them into the Hu family mansion.
You can still feel the elegance of the house with its small bridges, flowing water, curtains, and withered Qila bushes. Even though it is winter.
Zhao Yixian was so excited that he almost cried, "If I can own such a villa and garden in this life, I will regret it when I die."
The concierge said that he was resting in the house, but this was not the case.
There was a boy holding a lantern to illuminate the workers, and he seemed to be pulling the wires.
The porter shouted to the boy over there, "Go and call Li Huyuan, this wild monk is knocking on the door."
The boy handed the lantern to the worker, turned around and walked away. Ran away.
Zhao Chuanxin didn’t take it seriously. He hugged the concierge and came to the worker, asking the bewildered worker, “Construction is also going on at night.”
The worker wiped his forehead and was busy with work. The Khan said, "The customer has paid more and asked to turn on the light in the young master's room overnight."
As he spoke, the wire accidentally fell to the ground, and the ground was covered with melted snow. Sparks are produced.
The worker quickly picked up a rubber roller to lift up the wire.
In fact, the Westernization Movement did indeed drive social development in the late Qing Dynasty.
By this time, the number of post offices nationwide had reached 30There are more than 00, and this number continues to grow.
The telephone network has covered more than 150 cities, and many Qing government departments are equipped with telephones.
Not to mention wires, which are nothing new in river port cities.
Zhao Chuanxin was shocked when he saw this, "How can you pull the wire without cutting off the gate first?"
The worker scratched his head and said, "No"
Zhao Chuanxin Thumbs up, "Awesome."
Zhao Yixian didn't know the power of electricity and curiously asked, "Master Cheng Kun, how do you know if this line is electrified?"
Zhao Chuanxin said "You can tell by touching it. If there is no electricity, there will be no reaction. If there is electricity, then you will be straight for the rest of your life."
Zhao Yixian didn't understand, but the worker burst into laughter.
He said, "If you are not electrocuted improperly, the person will become stiff and trembling, the human body will become burnt and smelly, and eventually he will be electrocuted to death."
Zhao Yixian shivered""
Can this be touched?
Benjamin Goldberg scratched his head and said, "Master, I have a question. If I touch high-voltage electricity, how would you respond?"
Zhao Chuanxin thought for a while, "Sprinkle some cumin powder. If it's spicy, sprinkle more chili powder."
"" Benjamin Goldberg said dryly, "Even the master can't cast a spell to save me." ”
A Bao looked in all directions and heard Zasui’s footsteps, and immediately said, “Stop gossiping, someone is coming.”
A tall man with bulging cheeks. , carrying a three-section stick and four other men, arrived belatedly under the guidance of the servant.
When the concierge saw it, he immediately straightened his back, "Master Li, hurry up, this wild monk is abominable, take him down quickly"
Zhao Chuanxin clamped his arms and said, "This dog The thing is still in my hands, so you dare to bluff"
The concierge's words stopped abruptly""
It makes sense.
After Zhao Chuanxin let go of him, he asked those people, "Is there Hu Gengtang among you?"
Li Huyuan held two sections of a three-section stick, made a horse stance, and looked He looked quite vigorous and shouted loudly, "I advise you to just surrender and capture him, and you will suffer less."
Zhao Chuanxin saw that his answer was not what he asked, so he turned the wheel and pointed the Dragon Capture Ring at him.
Li Huyuan said "ah" and the world started to spin.
He lifted his feet off the ground, spun his body and flew towards Zhao Chuanxin.
I also threw away the three-section stick in my hand, dancing happily and wanting to go down, but I couldn't help it.
Zhao Chuanxin grabbed Li Huyuan's feet and violently swung them towards the telephone pole.
The newly erected telephone poles fell down again because their foundations were not yet solid.
The electric wires and live wires were extended into the flowing water, and immediately several carps turned upside down
Li Huyuan lay on the ground, not knowing whether he was alive or dead.
The concierge was dumbfounded, and the other nurses were confused.
Zhao Chuanxin put out his Dragon Claw Fist and scratched it in the air. "The poor monk's Dragon Capturing Skill has reached the state of perfection. Kaka ka ka."It's just a scratch"
