As early as thirty years ago, Zuo Zongtang wanted to build a bridge over the Yellow River. The foreign businessmen at that time asked for too high a price, and the plan was ultimately aborted.
It was not until thirty years later that this wish was finally started with the promotion of Peng Yingjia.
Although it is just building a bridge, the files on preparation, transportation, and funding can reach 45 volumes and more than 500 pieces.
It can be seen that building a bridge at this time is not an easy task. Peng Yingjia does not know how much worry he has to worry about.
This will be the first modern bridge on the Yellow River, which is of great significance and will be of greater economic significance to Lanzhou Prefecture.
When Peng Yingjia was planning, some people had been opposing it.
This year, as construction is about to begin, ignorant old pedants like Niu Xianzhu who don’t distinguish between four, five, and six are jumping out again.
Peng Yingjia claimed to build bridges for the public and the people, but he was often criticized and looked down upon. It was a lie that he had no grudges in his heart.
Today, someone finally stood up and endorsed him.
And he said it so loudly.
The light we strive for illuminates you and me.
Listen, Peng Yingjia was so moved that he thought he had met a confidant.
Then I saw Zhao Chuanxin knocking Niu Xianzhu down with a headbutt.
Zhao Chuanxin spat "Bah"
It happened to hit Niu Xianzhu's melon skin hat.
Peng Yingjia ""
After all, Niu Xianzhu is a civil servant, so he has to stop him, so he pretended to say, "Stop it quickly, what's the point?"
It's just talking. That's all, his steps didn't even move.
Zhao Chuanxin pointed at Niu Xianzhu on the ground, "Yeah, it makes no sense how decent you old guy is."
Niu Xianzhu""
Zhao Chuanxin first Swinging the sleeves of his robe, he held his hands around and said, "Having a laugh, I will say goodbye now."
His Taoist robe reached to his ankles, just enough to cover the misty travelers under his feet. His clothes were fluttering and withered. .
It’s so exciting to hit someone and then run away.
Everyone present was left in shock.
Peng Yingjia asked the people around him, "Is this person a monk or a Taoist?"
Zhao Chuanxin first went to buy coal and then went to the post office.
There were not many people in the post office, and Zhao Chuanxin was quickly queued up.
Zhao Chuanxin first mailed a draft and then sent a telegram.
The telegraph operator who sent the telegram asked "Sir, what do you want to send?"
"Just send it, are you there"
Telegraph operator ""
What’s even weirder is that the other party replied, saying.
Zhao Chuanxin, I am in Suzhou, nothing happened.
The other party’s response was as expected.
It is inconvenient for Zhao Chuanxin to disclose confidential matters, so he contacted New York to allocate funds for the laboratory. We will soon run out of ammunition and food, and purchase some additional experimental equipment. The list is as follows
The other party understands that we have everything smoothly.
At this time, behind Zhao Chuanxin, a rather handsome middle-aged foreigner complained in English, "Xie Te, hurry up, I still have something to do."Gotta do it. ”
Family, the foreigner in front turned his head and bared his teeth, and said in a southern American accent, “Damn it, Fuck, you damn British guy, are you going to die in a while?”
< p>The southern American accent actually coincides with the Chinese accent, and Zhao Chuanxin is the most comfortable to speak.The telegraph operators were dumbfounded. >Morrison was stunned "You are an American"
"Son of a bitch, I am Chinese. ”
Morrison said calmly, “Sorry, I didn’t know you knew English, and I’m Australian. ”
“Ah, you damn Australian. "
Morrison"
Then Zhao Chuanxin said to the telegraph operator, "I'm very busy sending this last sentence. I'm burning several taels of money every minute. Leave now and don't come back."
Pay the money and leave.
Zhao Chuanxin went out, lit a cigarette, and thought about what else to buy.
Rice, flour, oil, soy sauce, vinegar, tea, sugar<. /p>
Wood for door panels
Balt from Lanzhou Weaving Factory
I need to prepare some fodder in case Gulizar comes riding a camel. , at least the camels won’t starve to death.
Zhao Chuanxin went through the things he wanted to buy, threw away the cigarette butts, and was about to leave when someone behind him shouted "Wait a minute."
He looked back and saw that the foreign devil he had scolded was chasing him out. This time he said in Chinese, "Taoist Master, wait a minute." "
Zhao Chuanxin moved his neck, "Why are you looking for a place? What should a poor person be afraid of?"
"Misunderstanding. Morrison explained, "I just wanted to take a photo of the Taoist priest. I am the chief correspondent of The Times in Beijing." "
"Not interested. "Zhao Chuanxin dismissed it.
The more he behaved like this, the more interesting Morrison found it.
A Chinese Taoist priest who didn't seem to have long hair and understood American English, His speech is also very different from that of contemporary people.
He is actually very kind-hearted, and he is somewhat aloof.
Other foreigners demonize the Chinese, but he is the only one who reports it truthfully and personally. He witnessed many historical processes, from the late Qing Dynasty to the early Republic of China, such as the Reform Movement of 1898, the Xinchou Agreement, the Russo-Japanese War, and even later became Yuan Datou's adviser.
In 1902, he moved to Wangfujing Street, opened up five rooms, and spent three months building a library. This man was a bit obsessive. He made an index for his collection and made it into a book. The book has more than 1,500 pages.
His family has become a hotbed. As soon as new foreigners arrive in the capital, they are forced to go to Mo Mansion by rickshaw drivers without understanding the language. It was a bustling place, and there were always people coming to look up information. He opened the index and could immediately find the location of the books. The coachman in the capital believed that all foreigners came to see Morrison
Morrison asked again, "Where is the Taoist Priest?" Which Taoist temple should we practice in?"
Zhao Chuanxin walked away, "Gaha, you want to steal the master, I advise you not to have such wishful thinking., your wisdom is not enough. "
Morrisun chased after him, "Taoist Priest, where do you live?"
Zhao Chuanxin stopped in front of a large house and looked at the door.
p>
Morrison thought this was his home
Zhao Chuanxin looked at the big house and said, "Oh, I really want to sell this house and use the money to travel around. What a pity." "
Morrison quickly asked, "What price is unfortunately inappropriate?"
"Unfortunately, the owner of this house does not agree." ”
“Pfft”
Zhao Chuanxin quickened his pace, “Don’t follow me anymore, be careful to go to the government and sue you.”
As he said that, Zhao Chuanxin Every time he takes a step, his fury armor increases. One step of three to four meters is comparable to a long jump.
It doesn't matter how fast he is, but it is faster than other people's running.
After chasing for dozens of meters, Zhao Chuanxin fell a hundred meters away but failed to catch up.
Mo Lixun wiped his sweat, "Could it be that this is what the Chinese call a person who cultivates immortality?" "The art of shrinking the ground into an inch"
Looking at Zhao Chuanxin's figure gradually disappearing, Morrison smiled bitterly, "My intelligence is sufficient, but my footsteps cannot keep up."
< p>Morrison did not catch up with Zhao Chuanxin, so he took the opportunity to go to Lanzhou Agricultural and Mining School.This school was also run by Peng Yingjia, and the English teacher Lin Ade was also hired by Peng Yingjia.
p>Peng Yingjia actually contributed more to the development of this land than Zuo Zongtang
Morrison found Lin Ade and said breathlessly, "You know, Today I saw a magical Taoist priest who actually knew how to shrink into an inch. "
Roman Catholic missionary Van Dijk frowned, "Chinese religions are full of inaccuracies, I advise you not to be superstitious."
""This is what Van Dijk said from his mouth. The words made Morrison feel weird, "It's true, I saw it with my own eyes."
He said it was more true than you missionaries.
After Zhao Chuanxin finished shopping, Walking back on the Misty Traveler
An unexpected guest arrived in the desert
A swordsman rode up to the stone house.
< p> His face was full of dust, he tied the horse to the stone pillar where Zhao Chuanxin hung the lantern, and wiped the sweat from his forehead. "God, this inn is very hidden.
