Chapter 127 Winning Glory for the Country and Grabbing Foreign Girls
Li Guolou is an outlier in the Criminal Department. He is too lazy to change his clothes now. He is running around in a dress and greeting several officers. He will take a few days off to go to Tianjin and come back to bring some Bendou Zhang and cannabis flowers to the officers. He also brought a few more officers.
The confidant called to arrange official duties and left the Ministry of Justice. Walking on the street, I saw Spring Festival couplets posted on every house and red lanterns hung in strings. The child threw the cannon at his feet, and the Li Guo Tower exploded.
The temple jumped with both feet and angrily scolded the children for not following the rules.
"Fake foreign devils pick up girls, smash their dicks without losing their hair, sell green onions and magnets to tease boring girls, beat bricks to death and lose their waists." The children clapped their hands and made fun of the fake foreign devils.
Li Guolou showed a grimace to the children to scare the patriotic children.
Donglaijiang Alley was bustling with people coming and going. In front of the newly opened shop, the gongs and drums of the lion dance were loud. Li Guolou looked up and looked at the plaque "Japanese Foreign Goods Shop", and then looked at the lion dancers and Han people at the door.
It’s different. He wears trousers and has a painted face. His forehead is as smooth as that of the Qing Dynasty people, but his braids are very short and uglier than those of the Qing Dynasty people. Little Japan also looks at Laijiang Alley, a wealthy gathering area in the Middle East.
He came to be his neighbor. There were hundreds of Japanese people gathered here, and many Japanese businessmen came to support him. Li Guolou glanced around and saw no one over 1.7 meters tall. Little Japan was really small.
At this time, Japan was a big textile country, and cloth was the main source of foreign exchange for exports. All kinds of floral fabrics in Japanese goods stores were neatly displayed in the store, as well as some daily necessities, matches, candies, sake, and canned fruits.
Daily necessities, etc. The packaging is better than that produced by Chinese products, and the price is also very competitive, which is one level higher than domestic products.
Hundreds of little Japanese people sang "Kiminoyo" to the beat together, and a white-faced woman who looked like a geisha also came out to show off her skills, and there were cheers all around.
Seeing their uniform movements and extraordinary acting talent, Li Guolou left silently. The militia in the capital was not organized as well as they did. He felt very ashamed. These were still a group of small Japanese businessmen. How united they were.
A nation with terrible affectation and terrible forbearance. These characteristics can all be reflected in Little Japan. When these dwarf people are organized together, they become a tall and strong nation. Now that Little Japan has started the Meiji Restoration, when will the Qing Empire think of it?
Change? When will the royal nobles of the Qing Empire be willing to learn from the emperor of Japan?
Li Guolou couldn't help but think of the word "revolution". He wanted to be like the French. If the aristocracy refused to change, then there would be a big revolution. But didn't the revolution want to liberate women? What he did was not the same as the old feudal forces.
, oppressing fellow women. He originally wanted to be monogamous, but now he has to marry two grandmothers at once. Is he willing to let his woman find new happiness? There is also a French noblewoman who does not understand the meaning of the French Revolution.
Being entangled with him. His ideals and hidden ambitions are contrary to each other. He cannot become a revolutionary. It will cost him his life.
Li Guolou's ideals during his student days were shattered. People still have to enjoy life while living in the world. He did not want to promote the old ideals, so he gave up the impulse when he returned to the country and wanted to find a way out in the cracks in the declining empire. What he wanted
More, he thinks very complicatedly, he must be indifferent to himself and not be surprised when things change. The word "tolerance" written in the office is his principle of life and trouble. Tolerate the greed of the superiors, endure the darkness of the world, refrain from saying rebellious words, endure
By the time he becomes a giant.
Japanese goods stores are available in shops opened by Chinese people, but rich people will go to the shops opened by Little Japan to buy things. The money of the Qing people has been earned by Little Japan. Now Little Japan is still very poor, but
If this development trend continues, it will become a wealthy Eastern country.
Li Guolou was jealous of the unity of Little Japan. He was surrounded by people who were fighting against each other. Only when he joined the clique could the society be united. The old scholar who was devoted to the public could only talk. If he wanted to develop and start a business, he could only have the ambition to do so.
Cooperate with selfish people. His ability to unite such people and his ability to speak well has been recognized by his superiors and brothers. The two grandmothers in his family have been united by him on both sides of the bed. Now this French nobleman who has experienced the baptism of the French Revolution
Where should women be placed?
Li Guolou walked into Baozhi's room uneasily, and a big tabby cat passed between his feet. He was so frightened that he hugged Xie Xiuzhu.
"Don't be ridiculous, didn't you see me writing?" Xie Xiuzhu broke away from Li Guolou's arms. She was writing a recipe.
Li Guolou asked: "Where did the cat come from? Why do you let the cat run around?"
Xie Xiuzhu put down her brush and scanned Li Guolou carefully. What had the man done for two days while accompanying the chief to negotiate with foreign guests? He guessed right. There was no second possibility.
"Xiaolou, what have you done at the British Club in the past two days? Tell me honestly." Xie Xiuzhu refused to pick up on Li Guolou.
"My good grandma, I have something to tell you. Go and call grandma upstairs to Cuiyun Pavilion. It is a very important matter that affects our future." Li Guolou coaxed and deceived, and asked Xie Xiuzhu to take the place of
He runs errands.
"You are seeking death. You smell like perfume. Why are you dressed so brightly? You are just a little husband." Xie Xiuzhu still inquired deeply.
Qian Shuiping came over to greet Li Guolou, and they got together to talk about the staff training of Baozhifang.
Xie Xiuzhu immediately walked to the kitchen. Xie Xiuzhu still did not dare to be presumptuous in front of outsiders. Of course, Xie Xiuzhu regarded herself as Li Guolou's second grandmother and walked around without avoiding suspicion. She had forgotten about mourning for her late husband. Every morning and evening
Three sticks of incense will do. Her husband Wei Wen, who died in the accident, will understand her good intentions. Li Guolou is the savior of their family. She must have dedication. After tasting Li Guolou, she refuses to let go.
After that, Li Guolou will be asked to hand over the public food in the evening.
Upstairs in the Cuiyun Pavilion, the maid Qiu Ju brought tea and Li Guolou closed the door immediately. Chen Xiangfang angrily shouted: "Don't act like this in the small building. I will beat you to death in this restaurant." She thought wrongly, thinking that Li Guolou
I want to touch them both here.
Li Guolou said: "Two good grandmothers, you can beat me to death. Let me finish my words. I have done something sorry for you. Please forgive me."
Li Guolou stood alone and talked, letting the two grandmothers sit and listen to his confession. Li Guolou was eloquent. Starting from the case he solved two days ago, the tense and suspenseful investigation process came vividly from his mouth.
The image was displayed in front of the two grandmothers.
What is Li Guolou going to say next? The two grandmothers have innate senses, and they look different from the way they look when they go out to solve crimes.
Li Guolou seemed to have a huge grievance and said: "I was very happy because I solved the case and Captain Howard Eugene had a bowl of ramen rice balls and was ready to go home. His girlfriend also gave me two bottles of sake."
Chen Xiangfang said angrily: "Xiaolou, you don't even let Japanese dwarfs go. You can't bully your friends' wives, don't you know?"
Li Guolou looked at Chen Xiangfang's flushed face, stepped forward and suppressed Chen Xiangfang's impulsive figure, and said: "That's not it. You have to let me finish what I have to say before you scold me." After he finished speaking,
Li Guolou kissed the two grandmothers on the left and right, and saw the two grandmothers wiping their cheeks angrily and looking angry, knowing that Li Guolou had done something wrong.
Next, Li Guolou reported his anecdotes, but the vivid scenes disappeared. They were all forced by the superior. The superior was looking for a foreign girl, but he went to gamble and won more than 700 taels of silver.
Xie Xiuzhu said: "We lost again later, by how much?"
Chen Xiangfang retorted: "Second Grandma, does he look like he has lost money? If he loses money, he will defraud you of your money. How can he come to repent?"
Li Guolou chuckled dryly and said: "I have paid my respects to the superior with my money. They used my chips to pick up foreign girls. I still have the same amount of money as I paid when I went out, and I didn't spend a penny."
Xie Xiuzhu asked: "Then where did the clothes on your body come from?"
Li Guolou said: "Second Grandma, let me go on. I will tell you frankly and will not lie to you. If you don't believe me, you can ask Luo Yunxia (Wu Defu's wife) in the future whether I lied to you."
Li Guolou told about his untainted character. Among the many officials of the Qing Dynasty, he was the only one who did not look for foreign girls and ignored him as a pimp. Then he served as a translator for the dinner, and then the dance.
It's not that smooth. The organization and sentences are all lumpy and have been completely exposed.
Speaking of Jelia, Wood waited for him in his room, then bowed his head and said nothing, imitating the Japanese way, bowing and apologizing to the two grandmothers.
Xie Xiuzhu snorted coldly and said: "Xiaolou, you are a young man, and it is normal to do this kind of thing. You don't need to tell us in the future. Just have tasted foreign girls. We won't make it difficult for you." Then he said:
"Sister Xiaofang, don't be angry. Your husband didn't have this kind of character in the past. Men are all the same."
Men stayed out all night doing this kind of thing. It was no surprise that Xie Xiuzhu didn't take it seriously.
Li Guolou said awkwardly: "The next morning, I chased Yelia away and said that I don't look for women with men, and I don't have extramarital relations. I have a wife and children at home. I didn't say that we were not married. I
I regard you two and Lingling as my own family members. I didn’t expect Yelia to put on her clothes and take them off again. She said she was willing to kick her lover off and live with me. I felt soft and agreed. "
Chen Xiangfang said angrily: "That's because that slut is addicted to sex, isn't it? Looking at you now, you look like a sluggish mangy dog, I know you've been drained."
Li Guolou hurriedly confessed: "Don't worry, grandma, I will satisfy you both tonight."
Chen Xiangfang sneered and said, "I smell like sheep, don't touch me."
Xie Xiuzhu said: "I'm so angry that I can't be in the mood to be nice to you."
Li Guolou lowered his head and said: "I know it's my fault, but Yelia must meet you two and invite you to dinner. There is one more thing I haven't said. I will accompany Yelia to Tianjin for a few days tomorrow. She wants to
Convert shares into cash."
Xie Xiuzhu said: "No, Xiaolou, please explain clearly what you did yesterday. Besides, why didn't you dare to talk about going to Tianjin for no reason?"
Li Guolou whispered: "It's almost the same as the next day, let's play!"
"You are seeking death! You made the sheep smell like us." Chen Xiangfang said angrily.
Li Guolou said: "Xiaofang, don't slander others and make money by being friendly. I am 100% devoted to you. I am just for face with her and have no emotional investment. I stole the lover of the big businessman Robinson,
The foreign devils are all envious of me. It feels like bringing glory to the country. The superiors are praising me and saying that they will introduce me to Prince Gong."
Li Guolou finally felt proud and returned to his normal appearance. He stared at the two grandmothers in the wind, showing them his majestic figure. Let them see clearly that he was fundamentally different from the hundreds of little Japanese in the shop next to him.
He danced to win the favor of foreign girls, stole their lovers, and brought glory to the Qing Empire. But the little Japanese dance made the Fang family laugh because he wet his pants and jumped on his feet.
