late Qing Dynasty arrest

Yelia invited two Western boxing masters for Li Guolou, that is, sparring partners, both of whom were French. The man in his 40s is called Harris, and the man in his 30s is called Jack. They are both bigger than Li Guolou. They are working as guards in the capital. A friend of Yellato’s high salary temporarily hired Li Guolou for a month. Western boxing coach.

Li Guolou was surprised that there were two other French people who had dinner without introducing him, so he asked, "Yelia, who are these two, why didn't you introduce them?"

Yelia laughed: "They like to introduce themselves, which is what they are good at."

The little Frenchman with gold-rimmed eyes stood up and said, "Hi Mike, we are French journalists for Pravda. My name is Eugene. This is Qutav, and he is a photographer."

There was a camera leaning against the wall next to it. Li Guolou didn't pay attention to it just now. During the handshake, Li Guolou was suspicious and asked, "Yelia, what are the reporters from Pravda doing here? Did you invite them too? "

Yelia rolled her eyes and said, "I didn't invite them. They inquired about me and you in the capital. They are all reporters of the French Concession Pravda. They got the news of the confrontation between you and Robinson Robinson, and they were interested in me, especially for us. Do a follow-up interview."

Yelia proudly puffed out her chest, her demeanor was like a heroine, everything was written on her face when she was proud of her horseshoe.

Li Guolou asked: "Reporter Eugene, how did you know?"

Eugene said with a smile: "We are reporters, how can we not know what happened in the French Concession. Mrs. Yelia is the golden flower of our France, Robinson is a legend, and you, Mr. Mike, have returned from overseas. The three of you What happened to me is something people in the French Concession of the Qing Dynasty, and even people in other concessions want to know. From now on, I will follow you two every day and write continuous reports for you. The deeds of you and Yelia, Mike Before long, my country will become a household name, and you will become a legend like Robinson Robinson."

Li Guolou was overjoyed, with a calm expression on his face, he said with a straight face: "Dear Yeliya, how can I let the guests sit in the lobby, hurry up and let my two masters and the big reporter go upstairs to the box Let them enjoy the song and dance performance of our Qing Dynasty singer. I don’t have time today, dear Yelia, you will entertain the guests.” Then he turned his head and clasped his fists and said, “I’m sorry, the two masters still have Big reporter Eugene and Mr. Qutav, today I have to entertain guests when I open here, and you will be entertained by Jelia. Sorry, sorry!"

Yelia said gracefully: "Dear Mike, didn't there be no boxes on the top just now? Now that it's free, I will invite four friends to sit up there. Stop drinking and recuperate your body functions. Now Robinson and Your betting line is [-] to [-], you don’t want to die too ugly, so you have to catch up.”

"Ah!" Li Guolou could put two eggs in his mouth. The two fought for their mistress. How could so many people know about it, and the handicap of the game was drawn.Robinson deserves to be a big businessman who took the opportunity to hype, and wanted to make a lot of money on it. He wanted to gain both fame and fortune, but he was tricked by Robinson.

Yelia and Li Guolou gave a face-to-face kiss and farewell ceremony, which opened the eyes of the women in the lobby. They watched Li Guolou striding up the stairs in a daze, and cheers erupted from the surroundings, and they regarded them as songs for performance. Ji and Xiao Xianggong are married.

After two o'clock in the afternoon, the countertops were still being cleared in the lobby, and some guests came in for dinner. The business was booming and the popularity was high.

Chen Xiangfang was busy and full of energy, running around in the kitchen and in the lobby, greeting guests non-stop.

Xie Xiuzhu was standing in front of a table in the backyard writing the menu, and lost more than a dozen cookbooks in one noon.Looking at the recipes with photos printed next to her, Xie Xiuzhu shook her head and sighed. Although it was hard work, she believed that she would become a celebrity in the capital just like Yelia.The hard work now is worth it, and next she will be a legendary woman in the business world, and one day she will enter the palace to receive the reward from the empress dowager, the phoenix crown and red robe Mrs. Haoming.

The four Manchus of the fifth class wandered the streets of Donglaijiang Lane with their birdcages in their hands. They had no place to sit in Baozhi’s room, and they were driven out by Chen Xiangfang. to eat.

The five gnawing claws said: "Have you seen this shop? It's closed. My younger brother said that the second grandma is going to open a jade shop, and I will be the shopkeeper here from now on."

A Manchu said in disbelief, "Second Grandma, will you be the shopkeeper?"

The five white eyes said: "What do you know, the shopkeepers are big and small, I am the shopkeeper of the shop, watching the thieves, but I have a special skill. You follow me, and I will give you a raise."

Another Manchu nodded and echoed, "The five words are reasonable. If someone is watching the jade store, then the shopkeeper of the shop is fine. The second shopkeeper! It's no problem to increase our salary by [-]%."

The five were very dissatisfied, turned around and said angrily: "You are not in a daze, you are not guilty of your heart, you will get a [-]% salary increase if you don't do shit, I will be the first to fire you as the second shopkeeper."

A man said angrily: "Then Wu, why do you turn your face and deny people when you are rich? We have been good brothers for many years."

Na Wu patted his chest and said, "Do you have to have a conscience? As long as you don't get greedy, I won't forget you, but I also have a limit. It's really unreasonable to increase my salary by [-]%."

"Forty percent!" "Thirty percent!" "Thirty percent!" "At least twenty percent!"

The three Manchus were bargaining with Na Wu, all with smiles on their faces, swaying their splayed steps, and domineering.Let the people on the street dodge one after another. They are privileged Manchu nobles, and no one dares to touch their tiger whiskers.

When Li Guolou went upstairs, he was dragged by Wu Yingzi, the bustard of Jiaofenglou, to the room where a group of singers stayed. Except for sporadic appearances, they waited for a group of fake foreign devils led by Du Xianyu at night. After scanning and listening, I couldn't bear the joy to get close to Li Guolou.

Li Guolou enjoyed a massage service as soon as he entered the door, and a few pairs of small hands relaxed him on his shoulders, with a sweet voice, coquettishly scolding Li Guolou for forgetting his old friend.

Li Guolou said: "I'm not good to you. The first business you open is all done by your family. In the future, I won't do it for others. Don't worry, Wu Ma. I'll find you some more soon." A real foreign devil, tall and strong, guaranteed to make my sisters happy."

Wu Yingzi smiled and said: "Xiao Lizi, I didn't bring you in because of this. Just now, the two father-in-laws in the palace asked me for two chicks. They want to raise concubines. Do you think I will accept this business?"

Li Guolou said: "Mother Wu, people in the palace don't have very good eyesight, Manchu women are very ugly, those noble concubines can only wear Manchu costumes, father-in-laws are used to seeing it, they think it is the beauty of heaven. This job is not difficult, you can earn a lot of money, but you need to be skilled, and you must be able to pass the flute, play and sing, otherwise why would they want you."

Wu Yingzi smiled and said: "Oh, that's good, that's good, I have a lot of chicks here, are the daughters chicks?"

"Yes!" Li Guolou said anxiously, "Mama Wu, the people here are useless. Father-in-law has the best memory. If you glance at them, they won't forget it. The fate of cheating on father-in-law is terrible." , I reminded you."

"Hey!" There was a sigh, the singers didn't want to get close to the super rich, and the opportunity slipped away in vain.

Wu Yingzi said solemnly: "Xiao Lizi, there is one more thing, I want to ask you for help."

Li Guolou said with a smile: "Wang Wu, can't you figure it out?"

Wu Yingzi thumped Li Guolou, and said softly, "Xiao Mian, this is an official matter. Of course, I'm begging you first, so as to save some expenses. I also want to open a branch, and I want your help with the license."

"This!" Li Guolou looked distressed. It was very difficult to obtain a license for a casino brothel. This was not a matter for the Ministry of Criminal Affairs, but also related to the court's face. Some places do not allow such low-level establishments.There is a group of brothels along the Qinhuai River in Nanjing. The capital is the capital of the country, and its image is very important. Most of the messy places are gathered in the southeast of the city.

Li Guolou hesitated and said: "Mother Wu, let's choose a good place first, and then I will tell my second brother that we will help other departments. No one dares to eat you now."

"Fuck you!" Wu Yingzi leaned her body closer and said softly, "Little Li, call me Sister Wu from now on, maybe I'm still your younger sibling."

Li Guolou warned: "Sister Wu, I advise you to settle Wang Wu and let him marry you. He hasn't risen to the top yet, and in a few years' time, singers who sell their arts but not their bodies will also be posted. You can't hold it." Wang Wu doesn't care about my affairs, I never said anything bad about you."

Wu Yingzi sighed, "Am I really going to give up the whole forest for one tree?"

Li Guolou said: "Sister Wu, I have played all the games, and I have also been romantic. My third grandmother is also about the same age as you. Don't you worry about it? You are not sure now, and in the future even the seat of a concubine will be too big. No. Wang Wu is a son of a Lian family, and he doesn't know how to have wives and concubines in groups, so you can do it yourself." After speaking, Li Guolou stood up and wanted to walk out of the room, but a singer behind him hugged him.

Sai Jinhua said softly, "Little Lizi, I haven't played with you yet, when are you going to turn over my cards?"

Li Guolou said in embarrassment: "Sai Jinhua, don't be like this. I will introduce you to the French in the future, so that your French can also improve rapidly."

Sai Jinhua said, "No, I still want the British."

Li Guolou broke free from Sai Jinhua's arms and said: "It's a deal, the twins, British and French, are brought into your arms. There are two French journalists next door. I will introduce them to you in two days. "

Sai Jinhua said angrily: "Xiao Lizi, I'm not a prostitute. I can't bear two at a time. You'd better introduce it to my mother. She likes French people the most."

Wu Yingzi said anxiously: "Sai Jinhua, take care of your stinky mouth, I'm relieved now, and I'll live with Wang Wu. You can't bear it, but someone can bear it. Xiao Lizi brought two Frenchmen together. Outsider field."

Li Guolou said: "I won't tell you any more. I'm going to become a prostitute after I talk about it. Act noble for me later. Fake foreign devils like high-end goods, and I will give you a good edge. Don't explain it to others casually." Clothes, once this kind of thing happens, don’t blame me if people lose interest later on.”

Another singer scolded, "Xiao Lizi, why are you such a mother-in-law? We know how to deal with fake foreign devils."

Wu Yingzi rolled her eyes and said: "Qiuxiang, then why did you let Xiao Lizi go from the bed? Thanks for the silver. Otherwise, you would also have a share in Baozhifang now."

Qiu Xiang sighed and said: "Hey - it's not good to recognize people. If there is a fake foreign devil who is prudish, I will never let him go."

Li Guolou escaped from the clutches of the singers, seeing their appearance, Li Guolou thought of what his second grandmother Xie Xiuzhu did in the past?Today's society laughs at the poor but not at the prostitutes, but he can have a hot fight with the singer.These singers are high-class prostitutes. If you want them to take off their clothes, you have to pay a lot of money, otherwise you will be allowed to listen to a few songs, sing a few songs, and touch a few to have fun.If they make a fuss, no matter how rich they are, they will not sleep in your bed. This is a special group of prostitutes. In addition to your money, you also have fun. Talking to them, you will feel that you are a noble person.
