Li Guolou was walking on the street, without having to look at the people on the street, he knew that the idlers were pointing and talking about him.The sunny morning made people feel at ease. He took off his hat and stroked the newly grown hair on his forehead. It was time to shave his head. The ponytails of the people in the Qing Empire had to be shaved to look good.Li Guolou pays more attention to image, and it has reached the level of outrageous. The rich people in the world are the same. They spend money on trivial personal appearance, thinking that others will look at him carefully.There is a barber Zhou Fugui in the courtyard where he lives, but Li Guolou never asks Zhou to shave his hair.

It was still early, so Li Guolou deliberately took out the gold watch from his pocket to see what time it was?With a small movement, everyone on the street looked sideways.

Fatty Wang from the barber shop is soliciting customers at the entrance of the store, "Guest officer, shave your head in the morning, you will have a refreshing day, your business is booming, and your wealth is increasing. Brother, come in and look in the distorting mirror. Smile and laugh."

When Fatty Wang saw Li Guolou approaching, he was overjoyed. This is a regular customer, very diligent, and rewarded him every time.

Fatty Wang leapt up to Li Guolou, and said with a smile, "Xiao Lizi, come so early today. You're ashamed of yourself!"

Li Guolou rolled his eyes and shouted: "Fatty Wang, first, don't call me Little Li. Calling me a fake foreign devil sounds better than Little Li. I'm not an eunuch in the palace. Second, don't speak such nondescript English. You must know that English is A noble language, not ivory from a dog's mouth."

Fatty Wang laughed and said, "Okay! Fake foreign devils, brother, I know, please, a prawn dumpling is here!"

Li Guolou knew that Fatty Wang liked to joke, and knew that he didn't think so, so he deliberately joked with him in the morning.He didn't have a beard, but he yelled: "Fatty Wang, come here and trim it."

Li Guolou stepped into "Wangji Hair Shaving Shop", and there was a distorting mirror at the door, which was a signboard for this store to attract customers. Many customers came here to shave their hair just to take a look at the distorting mirror.The deformed figure in the mirror makes people laugh, and a good mood for the day starts here.Fatty Wang is willing to spend money, creative and skilled. Most of the neighbors on this street shave their hair here.Only some poor people are greedy for cheap, and the roadside stalls will investigate, and then they shave their heads at Zhou's Shave.

Fatty Wang glanced at Li Guolou, and snickered in his heart, the old hat of the local turtle, wanting to grow a beard is crazy.The store cuts off customers, and it likes this kind of people to come.

Fatty Wang shouted: "Little Erzi, have a cup of Biluochun."

When the apprentice Xiao Erzi heard the words of his master Fatty Wang, he immediately understood that there was a word "shang", which meant that the guests who came were high-class people, the tea should not be sloppy, and the tea should be served with high-quality tea.This shop has hidden secrets when it comes to business. Insiders talk about customers in terms of terminology, and laymen don't know the secrets when they are on the scene.

Li Guolou took a sip of tea, leaned back on the barber's leather chair, and said perfunctorily, "Well, the tea is good, and it was picked this year."

He closed his eyes and rested his mind, and never opened them again, like an old monk in meditation. The pace of life in the Qing Empire was slow and procrastinated, and he only moved his buttocks when he saw money to do errands in the yamen.Li Guolou has integrated into this way of life through a year of hard work.

"Fake foreign devil, fake foreign devil, where did you die, hurry up and die!"

Two voices came from the street, one was rough, the other was shrill, one long and the other short, shouting non-stop, making the streets frantic, and no one dared to provoke the two uncles.

Li Guolou closed his eyes and opened his eyes angrily, and shouted: "Little Erzi, don't you know how to do things? Hurry up and ask the two uncles to come in."

The second son brought into the store two young men, they were the two best friends Li Guolou made in the capital.

Wang Xiaocui, 20 years old, is six feet tall, with broad arms and a round waist. He is already full of beards. He has red phoenix eyes, a lion nose and a tiger mouth, and he is born with a fierce appearance.He is a disciple of the Beihai Martial Arts Academy, ranked fifth, and people in the rivers and lakes call him "the fifth king of swordsman".He and Li Guolou did not know each other, and once had a quarrel with each other, and turned their faces on the spot.

What is it?It was because of the fake foreign ghost's dress that Wang Xiaocui was very upset, so he deliberately picked on Li Guolou.When the figures staggered on the street, he deliberately slammed into Li Guolou.

Li Guolou was caught off guard and fell to the ground. He had always been a chivalrous man since he was a child, and he had a very violent temper. Otherwise, he would not have been dismissed by Cambridge University in the UK and had graduated.Li Guolou likes to behave badly and make troubles the most, so he is not willing to bow his head and admit it.The real knives and guns were real, and they started to fight on the street. When the two fought against each other, they were evenly matched. Neither of them took advantage, but they all lost.Unexpectedly, when he turned around, he ran to the same traumatic practitioner for treatment.

Li Guolou and Wang Xiaocui couldn't help laughing together when you looked at me and I looked at you.People who are born once and familiarized twice, who can learn martial arts in the martial arts school, have some money in their families. This is called being poor and rich in martial arts.Both of them are idlers, they both like martial arts, and they have their own strengths, so they played together.

That Caijin was one year older than Wang Xiaocui, thin, with wicked eyebrows, over five feet tall, and well-groomed.He is a Manchu Zhenghongqi man, a first-class member of the Qing Empire.There was a "Batulu" in the family, who was the first-class bodyguard of Emperor Kangxi.Of course, "Nabazi" said, "When my ancestors;;;;;;" now?He can't even speak Manchu, and can only speak authentic Jingshi dialect.

Wang Wu's father was originally Na Bazi's father's coat-coating slave, and now Wang Wu's business is booming, and Na Bazi relies on Wang Wu as a friend. The officials are all Manchus, but they don’t do anything in name, and they take money.) The Han people have to join the Manchus (that is, the Eight Banners) for their own status.But today is not as good as in the past, the Manchus have declined, and even the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom needs the Hunan Army and the Huai Army. Yes, now it is the third "green battalion".Now the local garrisons are dominated by Han people, and the status of the Han people in the Qing Empire has changed. Both Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces are controlled by the Han people.

Although Na Bazi no longer has an official position, he can speak well. He is very familiar with the yamen of the six governments, especially the House of Internal Affairs. He even helped the Wang family sell their business to the House of Internal Affairs.In the capital, there is a group of Manchus who run errands for others and make money everywhere, and their connections are in their hands.The Han people can't get involved, and the Manchus are the most united race.

Li Guolou's errands depended on that guy to get the line. That guy had collected countless money from Li Guolou. Of course, he said that he was enough for a buddy, and he only charged [-]%, and the rest was used for official management.Only Na Bazi knew the real situation.

Li Guolou believed that there was a reason for that. It cost money to meet officials in the Qing Empire, and the price was clearly marked. Every time Li Guolou met an official, he was the one who matched the bridge.Some errands fail, who is playing tricks inside?Li Guolou knew it well, but he didn't believe in evil, so he still had to break into the six government offices by himself.

man!Eating, drinking, talking and laughing, being together all day will become good friends.Wang Wu and Na Bazi strode into Wangji hair shaving shop aggressively. They went to Li Guolou for something important. They saw that Li Guolou was still shaving his face with his eyes closed, his face and forehead were covered with white foam, and he was still enjoying himself.

Wang Wu was anxious, and shouted: "Fake foreign devil, hurry up. There is a big event today, you come with me." He said again: "Fatty Wang, don't pretend, I know you can shave in one round, don't waste time .”

The three of them didn't have a proper job, they were just looking for trouble, and they would drink and talk big when they were together every day, or they would practice martial arts together, finding fault with others.

Fatty Wang really speeded up, the razor in his hand was moving rapidly, and he smiled and said: "Wang Wu speaks, how dare I not listen, I don't have a green gang here to find fault, and it's not because of the masters of the Beihai Martial Arts School. Brother, Guaranteed to deal with the fake foreign devils in one round."

Li Guolou was also about to become a chronic person. He had long since lost his original impulse and enthusiasm. He still closed his eyes and said, "Wang Wu, what's the rush? The emperor doesn't rush the eunuchs, the sky hasn't fallen yet."

Wang Wu was also sitting on a shaved chair, and said with a smile: "Fake foreign devils, something serious has happened. In our Beihai Martial Art Museum, another martial arts gym opened in the street next to it. It also doubles as a Diet gym. Zhilin' was opened by a martial artist in Foshan in the south. Isn’t this a disgrace to our Beihai Martial Arts Center? The venue came to our door and robbed our Beihai Martial Arts Center business. My master was so angry that he couldn’t speak. I’m also afraid that our Beihai Martial Arts Hall will come forward to challenge that Huang. If we lose, our Beihai Martial Arts Hall brand will be removed in the future. So I recommend you to my master. I know your kung fu, and it’s only worse than mine. One point. It’s up to you to take the lead. If you win our Beihai Martial Arts School, you will win, and Baozhilin will close down. Lose! Hehe;;;;;; fake foreign devils have nothing to do with our Beihai Martial Arts Hall.”

When Li Guolou heard this, what was it?Finding fault with others, creating a scene, even asking him to be an outsider to do it, only a fool will do it when he is full.

Fatty Wang shouted: "Master, that's good! It's so refreshing, take a look, it's so bright that it can be used as a mirror."

Li Guolou opened his eyes, pulled off the scarf around his neck, looked at Wang Wu and Na Bazi from the mirror, and said, "Wang Wu, I said that you are an old man, and it was early in the morning. Just standing in the courtyard and running the train, not at all in tune. I was so angry through the window paper, how did you sing it? Yes, that’s right, I’m talking about you, bastard , I’m stupid! I’m still dumb! Finding a fight with the master who opened the martial arts gym, isn’t this a dead end?”

Li Guolou made it clear that he would not go to Baozhilin to make trouble, he did not have diamonds, and he would not do porcelain work.Is it so simple to let the wishful thinking of the two elder brothers come to nothing?
