Chapter 87 Exposing the scam (110 please order first)
"Wait a minute!"

Yin Qi shouted loudly, causing everyone to turn their heads and look back.

He clasped his fists around and said with a smile: "Fellow folks, I have studied abroad and am proficient in foreign languages. Since you don't know them, how about you show me and I can translate them for you?"

You don't need to think about it to know that this contract can never be a loan contract.

Although the illiteracy rate is extremely high in this era, this is Hangzhou, and the literary style has been flourishing since ancient times. Therefore, even among ordinary people, there are many literate people. Naturally, men in suits dare not use Chinese characters to write contracts.

But English contracts are different. In this era, only the elites can be known, and ordinary people don't understand them at all.

"This young master actually knows foreign languages, please show us!"

A strong man holding a contract was overjoyed.

He handed over the contract and asked everyone to pass it on to Yin Qi.

"stop!"

The man in a suit on the stage was anxious, and he scolded sternly: "What are you doing? This is a contract signed between us. What are you doing for an outsider to see? And you, who are you? Hurry up before I get angry. roll."

The performance of the man in the suit was watched by the common people.

Although everyone doesn't understand foreign languages, they are not stupid. There is something wrong with this person's anxious look.

So everyone quickly passed the contract around, and it soon reached Yin Qi's hands.

The English of this era is still quite different from that of later generations.

It is not as stable as the evolution of Chinese characters, but fortunately he has studied English specifically in this life.

With his genius-level understanding, he mastered it in less than a month.

Yin Qi just glanced at the man in the suit, then took the contract and read: "Contract to sell myself, Article [-]: I voluntarily sell myself to Wang Fugui, the price is ten oceans. Article [-]: The travel expenses to the United States are ten oceans. , I voluntarily paid the shipping fee with the proceeds from selling myself..."

After reading this, the whole audience was in an uproar.

"I'm so stupid, you bastard, how dare you trick us into signing a prostitution contract!"

"How dare you, my ancestor, use the money from selling our bodies to pay for the ship. You really can't think of it."

"Everyone, this man actually tricked us into signing a deed of betrayal. Come on, beat him to death!"

……

The people are so angry that they rush to beat people.

The man in the suit was frightened and said quickly: "Dear fellow villagers, I am taking you to make a fortune, how could I trick you into signing a deed of sale? This is my enemy, he deliberately messed up the translation."

His words made the angry crowd a little more rational.

Yin Qi sneered and said: "Whether I translated it randomly or not, it is very simple to verify. Find someone to report it to the official and bring a teacher from the Tongwen School. Then you will naturally know whether what I said is true or false."

Tongwenkan is equivalent to a foreign language school, a place that specializes in training translation talents.

The man in the suit couldn't pretend any longer. He showed a fierce look in his eyes and said with a stern voice: "Get out of here, you bunch of untouchables. Do you know who I am? I'm from the Shahe Gang. If you continue to make trouble, I'll beat you to death." .”

Everyone's expressions changed drastically when they heard this, and they quickly dispersed.

Obviously, they were frightened by the Shahe Gang.

Seeing the people fleeing in all directions, the man in the suit had a look of disdain in his eyes.

He jumped off the high platform and strode towards Yin Qi in a menacing manner. He was about to grab Yin Qi and said sternly: "Get down here!"

The next moment, he froze.

He grabbed Yin Qi and found that Yin Qi was as stable as a mountain, no matter how hard he pulled, he could not move at all.

"It's me!"

Yin Qi snorted coldly.

He grabbed the man in the suit and threw the man in the suit out like a piece of trash.

bang.

The man in the suit hit the ground and couldn't get up for a long time.

The other members of the Shahe Gang were anxious. They were also discerning and did not dare to step forward to deal with Yin Qi, so they turned around and shouted in English, 'help, help! 'In the distance, a dozen foreigners with guns hurriedly ran towards us.

"Let's go!"

A cold light flashed in Yin Qi's eyes, he shouted to Yan Zhendong and left on horseback.

This is a busy city, and it is not appropriate for him to have a direct conflict with foreigners.

What's more, they also have more than a dozen guns, which are also very threatening to him.

…………

Baiweilou.

On the second floor, private room.

Yin Qi and Yan Zhendong feasted happily.

Both of them had big appetites, and the table of delicious dishes was quickly wiped out.

After the meal, the two drank after-dinner tea.

Yin Qi said: "Master Yan, I will go to the Admiral's Yamen alone in the afternoon. You can go check the whereabouts of those foreign devils in the afternoon. I suspect that many people have been deceived. If possible, I want to rescue them all." .”

He had already decided that when he returned, he would let the people's newspapers publish it to expose the piglet trafficking.

Yan Zhendong nodded and said, "Okay."

……

Admiral Yamen.

Yin Qi bowed and said: "I have met you, sir."

Nalan Yuanshu chuckled and said, "There's no need to be polite. I'm calling you here in such a hurry. It's been a hard journey."

Yin Qi smiled slightly and said: "Shanyin is not far from Hangzhou, and it only takes an hour or two to get up to speed. I just don't know what's the important matter, my lord, summoned the officials in such a hurry?"

Nalan Yuanshu put away his smile and said in a deep voice: "What do you think about the failure of the reform?"

Yin Qi pretended to feel pity and sighed: "What can I think of this? The reform and reform has touched the interests of too many people, and the die-hard forces in the court are still huge. Now we can only wait for another time."

Nalan Yuanshu nodded silently, and then said: "The imperial court has issued an order to transfer me to the post of Admiral of Guangzhou."

Yin Qi's heart was moved and he asked tentatively: "Sir, is it because of the reform or the pressure from the British?"

Nalan Yuanshu said: "Both, but I also applied for this on my own initiative. In fact, I applied a month ago!"

Yin Qi was puzzled: "Why?"

Nalan Yuanshu's eyes sharpened and he said in a deep voice: "Because I got news that Chen Yucheng, Shi Zhongkui and other remnants of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom are operating in Guangzhou, and there are many anti-Qing thieves in Guangzhou making a lot of noise. That's why I applied to be transferred to Guangzhou to prepare Clean up all these people.”

Yin Qi was secretly shocked and pretended to be surprised.

It seems that the next part is the content of Once Upon a Time in China.

I just don’t know if Nalan Yuanshu will still be like in the movie, and will eventually be killed by Huang Feihong.

Nalan Yuanshu looked at Yin Qi, suddenly smiled and said, "Do you know who I recommend to take over my position?"

Yin Qi's eyes suddenly opened wide: "Sir, you won't recommend me, right?"

Nalan Yuanshu nodded and said appreciatively: "Yes, it's you. I have seen your performance this year. You are good at training soldiers and you are hardworking and hardworking. You have wiped out the banditry in Shanyin Mansion. I believe that if you take over the Hangzhou New Army, you will be able to eliminate the banditry in Zhejiang."

He had worked hard to train the Hangzhou New Army, and he did not want to trust others.

The successor must not only be smart and capable, but also be on the same page as him.

The best choice was, of course, to look for it from the Manchu and Qing dynasties.

But he searched high and low, but couldn't find a suitable candidate, so he had to look for it among the Han people.

Among the Han people, Yin Qi was the only one who had outstanding ability and was on the same side as him.

As Yin Qi said, although this reform failed, they can still wait for another opportunity, so the new army in Hangzhou must be controlled by their own people.
