I was a god in the 18th century

"Hey, why doesn't this carriage have a front end? How do you tie the horse?" Andrew asked strangely as he looked at the off-road vehicle.

The maid who kindly led the way wondered: "Why, Mr. Andrew, don't you know about your master's steam car?"

"Steam car? Is this one in front of you? Does it belong to my master?" Andrew asked three questions in a row. When did the Fortress have a steam car? He doesn't know anything!

Could it be that the gods are helping the master again?

Yes, it must be!

Oh my god, the owner has a steam car that doesn't use horses, so does he still need him?

He knew this very quickly, because Owen was driving out alone shortly afterwards.

Andrew, the coachman who sent him out, had a mournful expression on his face, as if he had already foreseen the day when he would be laid off.

Owen's trip this time was for nothing else but jewelry appraisal and auction.

He wanted to help Xia Qingdai auction the European Star (the name Xia Qingdai named her moissanite) for cash as soon as possible, because she wanted to use the money to buy a manor in London.

Irving can take 10% of the remuneration in this process.

In fact, he was unwilling to ask for any reward and was willing to do things for Xia Qingdai. But Xia Qingdai doesn't want to use him in vain, only mutual benefit can last long!

Our Chinese gods must first receive blessings before they can eat incense, which is different from the European and American gods who prostitute themselves for free.

Besides, deep down in Xia Qingdai's heart, even Owen is hers (Fukui Villa Castle is not just her toy), so it is appropriate to give some pocket money to her own people.

While Owen was helping Xia Qingdai with errands, the latter had already finished taking photos and returned to modern times to start processing the pictures.

She did not bring those dresses to modern times, but first hung them in the cloakroom of the eighteenth-century castle. Because she lives in a modern room, there is not such a big wardrobe to hang the floor-length imperial skirt, and it is easy to wrinkle the skirt.

After the picture was processed, Xia Qingdai posted several Little Red Books in the form of Jiugongge. Then I just sell it as I see fit, selling as much as I can.

Compared to Lolita, the style of imperial skirt is much simpler. Moreover, Xia Qingdai bought these pieces at an ordinary clothing store in London in the 18th century. She did not have a relationship to customize them from a palace tailor, so the price certainly cannot be compared with Lolita skirts.

However, Xia Qingdai wouldn't price them too low. After all, they were authentic eighteenth-century imperial dresses, and they were all made of silk. They should cost at least four figures.

She defines her store as producing high-end goods. In the future, she will have a stable source of VIP customers and can also engage in high-end customization.

In short, no matter how much it sells, it is a sure profit for Xia Qingdai.

As usual, Xia Qingdai did not return to her London apartment this evening. She concentrated on studying modern volumes. I haven't started studying in Xiaozao these days because I have been traveling and going out, and I have to resume private lessons starting tomorrow.

Some people think that English in the eighteenth century is very different from modern English. In fact, this is not the case. You will know by reading the original text of "Pride and Prejudice".

The first draft of this novel was written in the late 18th century, and the final version was published in the early 19th century. It is a must-read classic for future generations studying English literature.

The real Old English period is from the mid-fifth century AD to the mid-twelfth century AD; the Middle English period is from the mid-twelfth century AD to the mid-fifteenth century AD.

From the mid-fifteenth century to the end of the seventeenth century AD, it belongs to the early stage of modern English; while from the eighteenth century to the present, it is all the modern English period, and there is basically no difference.

Therefore, it is absolutely appropriate for Xia Qingdai to learn English with Ou.

And because Owen's spoken English is elegant and he never lacks a sentence, Xia Qingdai's English has become elegant, and her English composition level has improved by leaps and bounds. For ten consecutive days, Xia Qingdai's daily life was very regular.

Go to Cousin Owen in the Eighteenth Century to see a doctor for them, and then take two private lessons in English and two private lessons in mathematics.

The rest of the time, Xia Qingdai either went back to modern times to study, study, or go back to Fucui Villa to sleep; while Owen was much busier than Xia Qingdai, because auctioning such a big "European Star" is really no small matter.

In the meantime, Owen also took his cousin, cousin, and aunt to attend the Earl of Charlton's ball. Xia Qingdai didn't want to waste time on this kind of social interaction, so she didn't join in the fun.

After being brought into the social circle of London's upper class by the Earl of Charlton, Owen also gained favor from other nobles with his impressive off-road vehicle and elegant demeanor.

It can be considered that he has successfully entered London's upper-class social circle.

Being able to follow Owen into the aristocratic social circle is naturally a good thing for his uncle's family, especially his cousin.

If there is a love-minded N-generation whose main goal is to fall in love, and is dazzled by the beauty of his cousin Connie, and is willing to propose to her regardless of dowry or status, it will be a huge profit for Henry's family.

Of course, Owen brought his cousins ​​into the social circle just by the way. He mainly wanted to expand his circle and get information.

After the diamond auction, he would help Xia Qingdai buy land, a building, and a manor, which were rarely circulated in the market. If you want not to suffer a loss or step into a trap, you have to take the trouble to find out carefully.

Xia Qingdai was the shopkeeper anyway and didn't care at all. She was busy reviewing for the college entrance examination. Of course, she had to leave such trivial matters to her own little man, Owen.

The landlady and her family were initially curious about Xia Qingdai, who often disappeared without a trace, but now they have almost ignored her.

In fact, Xia Qingdai's appearance was so infrequent that they often couldn't remember that there was such a person in the building.

Owen's cousin William's body has completely recovered. Except for the calf that was amputated by the surgeon and can no longer be reattached, there are no major problems in other aspects.

He is no longer destined to die. Although he will become disabled in the future, it is better to live than die.

After this case, Xia Qingdai's magical traditional Chinese medicine method, which is said to come from the East, attracted the attention of many people from the middle and lower classes.

There are many people who come to Mrs. Jones's house every day to block the miracle doctor, and there are also many people who try their best to ask Henry's family to see the miracle doctor.

Xia Qingdai did take action several times, and she achieved outstanding curative effects by checking her pulse and using modern medicines that were much more powerful than those in the eighteenth century.

Even when faced with a disease like a cold that can be cured on its own, just prescribing some traditional Chinese medicine such as isatis root and honeysuckle can alleviate many symptoms.

Although these traditional Chinese medicine granules do not taste good after being brewed, compared with bloodletting, everyone feels that it is better to drink bitter medicine.

Xia Qingdai is interested in practicing medicine, and people here have a need to seek medical advice, so they hit it off.

There was no such thing as illegal medical practice in this era, and there was no way for medical trouble to arise in front of the gentry class.

Compared with the surgeon who works part-time as a carpenter or a barber, Xia Qingdai, a "half-Chinese medicine doctor" who understands acupuncture points and meridians and can feel the pulse, is really much better. Anyone who encounters her for treatment is considered a blessing.
