i have ten aunts

Er Gouzi's original name was Gou Li. Despite his old appearance, his actual age was only 22 years old.

Er Gouzi looked at the father-in-law in front of him, and felt that it was very comfortable to chat with this father-in-law.

He doesn't have that kind of domineering aura, and it's not like a dog looks down on people. The key is arrogance. If he is alone in 10 days, he can earn 300 coins.

Regardless of what Er Gouzi said, earning more than 100 yuan a day is just a swollen face to pretend to be fat.

Does the rickshaw driver have any skills, and the pressure of competition is also great. Sometimes the money earned from a day’s running is not enough for the rental fee. Therefore, Er Gouzi’s biggest dream is to have his own van.

Many people around looked at Shen Ziqing, they were all speechless, they were really prodigal.

A pair of eyes in the crowd were fixed on Shen Ziqing's pocket, like a starving wolf seeing its prey.

Sitting in the rickshaw, Shen Ziqing looked at the soldiers with live ammunition at the entrance of the Forbidden City, and then remembered that although Pu Yi abdicated, he still lived in the Forbidden City, and there were still many old and young survivors of the Qing Dynasty.

Although Shen Ziqing had traveled to the Forbidden City before, it was after the opening and there were tourists inside, which was different from now.

If there is no emperor, eunuchs, maids, and concubines in a palace, it will have no feeling at all, just like looking at a pile of dead things.

Now, at the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China, the little emperor is still there, with concubines and eunuchs in the harem, Shen Ziqing's curiosity is still very strong.

Life in the Qing palace was still luxurious, and many eunuchs and court ladies were still there.

The Republic of China overthrew the Qing Dynasty, although the emperor is still there.

But the imperial power fell to the side, and these eunuchs and maids didn't respect him as much as the little emperor.

In order to be lazy, the maids and eunuchs were spoiled by the palace maids during Pu's development period, so that she could no longer be humane.

In the end, the empress Wanrong and concubine Wenxiu were all widows, and the empress even started smoking opium, going crazy all day long, and finally divorced.

Thinking of this, Shen Ziqing sighed a little, the emperor is such a loser.

But after looking at the Beiyang Army standing guard outside the palace, he still wanted to take a look, so he gave up.

Now he really doesn't have such power, ignoring these soldiers.

These days, killing people is like nothing.

Disappearing a person for no reason is similar to crushing an ant to death.

As if feeling a sense of urgency, Shen Ziqing's desire to spend money became stronger and stronger.

Drop drop!

A car horn sounded, startling Shen Ziqing.

There was a sound of footsteps, hundreds of soldiers guarded on both sides, and two Ford cars of the protectors drove towards the palace.

The soldiers on guard saluted hurriedly when they saw the car.

"Yuan Shikai's ostentation is really big"

'Nonsense, how many times would I have been killed if no one protected me'

'Shh, keep your voice down, carefully catch you'

"What are you afraid of, now the whole country is resisting, and his life is not easy"

Shen Ziqing's attention at this time was on the old car, and he said with a little greed in his heart: This thing should be very valuable, and it will be finished in a few days.

In this era, there is no such thing as a domestic car or a joint venture car. This kind of classic Ford car is all imported from the United States.

As for the price, Shen Ziqing really didn't know much about it.

After the army left, Shen Ziqing asked curiously, "Gou Li, do you know how much this Ford is?"

The first time someone called his name, Gou Li still felt very warm in his heart, and felt that he was living like a human being.

There was a simple and honest smile on the dark face, with a somewhat reserved expression, and he said embarrassedly: "Master Shen, you should call me Er Gouzi, I really don't feel comfortable calling me by your name for a while, and I feel uncomfortable all over."

Shen Ziqing was speechless, he didn't know what to say, he just felt that it was disrespectful to call someone a second dog.

"Okay then, Er Gouzi, do you know how much this Ford is?"

Gou Li nodded, and then exclaimed: "You said this foreign car, this thing is very expensive, it seems to cost 4000 yuan."

"4000 yuan? It's so cheap." Shen Ziqing asked doubtfully;

He can praise 86 yuan a day, and when the pocket watch is upgraded to level 2, it will be 172 yuan a day, which means that he can buy one in less than a month.

Hearing this, Gou Li's brain was a little short-circuited, completely beyond his cognition, swallowed his saliva, and said in shock: "4000 Yuan is still cheap?"

At this time, the purchasing power of Dayang is 4000 yuan. In the 21st century, it is almost a few million.

Gou Li only felt that his three views were going to be subverted, this Master Shen was really too rich.

Looking at Shen Ziqing in awe, he said again: "This foreign car costs 4000 yuan, which is still cheap, my God.

My rickshaw costs 50 yuan, and I have to save for three years to buy a rickshaw.

I can't afford a foreign car in my life.

And I heard that the driver of this foreign car costs 15 yuan a month, not counting the money for the gas.

I heard that gasoline is very expensive. These foreign cars cost 80 yuan a month to drink gasoline. Thinking about it, I am so scared that my legs are weak. What kind of family is this? How much food can it buy if it can spend so much?"

Shen Ziqing was stunned for a moment, not because of the price, but just remembered that gasoline is quite expensive these days.

The city of Shanghai is known as the Pearl of the Orient, and gasoline is a luxury. During the war of resistance, gasoline was made by the military everywhere, and you couldn’t buy it even if you wanted.

"Master Shen, it's really not worth buying this foreign car for 4000 yuan.

In the north of the west section of Wangfucang Hutong in Fuchengmen, there is a seller who is selling a house. There are 3 main rooms, 4 side rooms, 2 south rooms, 1 side room, and 1 gate tower. There are 11 rooms in total. Half an acre, the bid cost only 150 yuan to sell, and there are still very few people buying it, and the hearts of the people who are in turmoil these days are unstable.

You have another 4000 yuan, what can you buy?" Gou Li felt that Shen Ziqing in front of him was a bit of a prodigal, and tried to persuade him;

Chapter 6 Crescent Hotel

"150 yuan? Half an acre of land?" Shen Ziqing was a little unbelievable. Shen Ziqing never thought that his two days' income would be enough to buy a large courtyard house in Yanjing City with an area of ​​half an acre?

Some people don't understand half an acre of land. In terms of square meters, one mu of land = 666.** square meters.

Half an mu of land is more than 333 square meters. If this lot is placed in later generations, there will be no hundreds of millions, so don't even think about it.

Shen Ziqing couldn't help asking curiously: "Why is it so cheap?"

The corner of Gou Li's mouth twitched, this master of feelings is really too rich, why is everything cheap?

"Ten years ago it would have been impossible, but now that wars are fought every day, who knows who will be in charge at that time, anyway, many people panic.

What's more, it is said that the reason is that the seller is a smoker who is anxious for money and wants to sell the house to smoke.

However, the house is not easy to sell these days, it has been half a month, and no one has asked, I guess this guy will have to reduce the price in two days."

Shen Ziqing was worried that he had too much money and no land to spend, and when he just finished the task, it seemed that buying a house was not a bad idea.

The imperial palace cannot be entered at present, and Shen Ziqing has no intention to go to see it. Looking at the sunset in the west, the sun has already set, it is already late, and there is no point in wandering around.

So he said to Gou Li: "Er Gouzi, you know the capital well, help me find a good inn"

Gou Li was stunned for a moment, and thought: Don't you always live in the palace?

However, at this moment Shen Ziqing was his patron's father, so he didn't dare to offend him and didn't ask any further questions.

He said with a simple and honest smile: "Although I have never lived in the restaurant in Yanjing City, Young Master Shen, I have absolutely no problem saying that I am familiar with it. Please sit down, and we will start our journey right away.

There is a Crescent Hotel in Yanjing City, which is definitely a good place to go. The environment there is very good, but the price is a bit expensive.

But the price should not matter to you, and I think you are definitely not short of money.

And I heard that tonight, one of the four famous actors, the popular actress Wan Xiaoju and the Winter Emperor Meng Xiaodong

Perform Mu Guiying in command. "Gou Li laughed;

The popular actress Wan Xiaoju?Listen to Peking Opera?Shen Ziqing has no interest, the key point is not understanding, it's too high-end, in this day and age, opera singers are all male roles, it's boring to watch a big old man.

"What's so interesting about the two men?" Shen Ziqing shook his head and said without interest;

Hearing this, Gou Li, with a simple and honest face, gave Shen Ziqing a strange look.

He didn't understand in his heart, what exactly does this master like?Is there anyone in this day and age who doesn't like watching dramas?

Is it because something is missing, losing information about life?

Thinking of this, Gou Li felt that although he worked hard, at least he was still a man, and he still had a slight sense of superiority inexplicably, but it was hidden under his simple and honest expression.

If Shen Ziqing knew what Er Gouzi was thinking, he would definitely vomit blood.

Your father is the eunuch, and your whole family are eunuchs!

Gou Li wanted to refute something, but considering that Shen Ziqing was his high-profile client, he swallowed the words abruptly.

His blushing face flushed a little, Shen Ziqing looked quite amused.

Can't help joking: "Er Gouzi, don't hold back, just say what you want"

Gou Li hesitated and said: "Wan Xiaoju and Donghuang Meng Xiaodong are both very famous in the capital, and that Donghuang Meng Xiaodong is not a man, but a great beauty. She comes from a Liyuan family and is known as the "Donghuang".

Very popular in Beijing.

It was at the Crescent Hotel last year, when Yin Xinyue, the eldest lady of the Crescent Hotel, was on her 12th birthday.

Meng Xiaodong and Wan Xiaoju took the stage in Beijing, and the chorus "Si Lang Visits His Mother" became an instant hit.

very popular”

Crescent Hotel?Miss Yin Xinyue?

Shen Ziqing was stunned for a moment, she seemed to think this Crescent Hotel?Why does this eldest lady, Yin Xinyue, sound so familiar?

Suddenly a flash of inspiration, New Moon Hotel, Yin Xinyue?Master Zhang Dafo?

Isn't this the plot in Tomb Raiders Notes and Old Nine Gates?

The Crescent Hotel seems to be an inn, but it is actually the earliest auction house. When I first saw it, the scene of lighting the sky lanterns was the most exciting.

Thinking of this, Shen Ziqing hurriedly said, "Er Gouzi, are you sure it's called the Crescent Hotel?"

While running, Gou Li turned his head and said, "It's called the Crescent Hotel. It is said that it has existed for a long time, and it often auctions some mysterious things."

Shen Ziqing didn't know if it was the same name, so he suppressed the curiosity in his heart and said, "Oh really? What are they auctioning?"

"It is said that it is a treasure handed down from the palace, including calligraphy, calligraphy and painting, and many precious medicinal materials.

Young master Shen, don't believe me, I'm just hearsay, with my identity, I haven't been in at all, how can I know the situation inside, I just listen to some news, from friends who ran a rickshaw with me Yes, what is it, you will know after a while when you go in and have a look.”

Shen Ziqing thought about it too, seeing it is better than hearing it a hundred times, it's a pity not to go and have a look.

Yin Xinyue?Crescent Hotel, interesting, more and more interesting.

Along the way, Shen Ziqing was not in the mood to go shopping, and his mind was full of Crescent Hotel.

If it is confirmed that the so-called Crescent Hotel is in the Old Nine Gates, then does it mean that this parallel time and space is not an ordinary Republic of China at all.

Thinking of this, Shen Ziqing inexplicably felt a little more anticipation.

ps: New books ask for collection, evaluation, comments, all kinds of tricks and rolls.

Chapter 7 be quiet

A yellow and green glazed eaves are tall and majestic in an antique style, and two stone lions are placed at the door, which is extraordinary in style.

A series of red lanterns hung on both sides, illuminating the plaque of Crescent Hotel brightly.

Under the candlelight, the gold powder on the plaque shines brightly.

At the door stood a few waiters wearing vests of the Crescent Hotel, standing straight.

Looking at the incomparably luxurious Crescent Hotel in front of him, Shen Ziqing felt more and more in his heart that this might be the Crescent Hotel in Old Nine Gates.

After Gou Li parked the car, he said with a simple and honest smile, "Master Shen, I won't go in to the Crescent Hotel. I will wait for you at the door. Whenever you use the car, just call me."

Shen Ziqing looked to the east, the night was falling, the crescent moon had already appeared in the sky, shook his head and said: "No, it's getting late, you don't have to wait for me, just come at nine tomorrow morning, take me to eat some snacks in the capital , it’s too late and you’ve been tired all day, go to bed early.”

Gou Li was stunned for a moment, only feeling warm in his heart, and couldn't help being even more grateful to Shen Ziqing.

He has never been so cared about by others, Shen Ha is like a rising sun, a good word warms the winter, and Shen Ziqing's words make his tiredness of the day disappear.
