Traveling through the Republic of China

Chapter 33

After Carlisle came back, he went to Liu Chunjiang and talked about Pei Fang being rescued by Qi Feng.

Upon hearing this, Liu Chunjiang said, "Qi Feng? Isn't this my cousin?"

"What? Your cousin, when did you come out with a cousin?" Carlisle asked curiously.

"My cousin was sent to a military academy when he was 14 years old. He is my aunt's child." Liu Chunjiang asked about the situation at that time and said, "That's right, the Qi family and the Wu family They are family friends, my cousin and Sister Peifang grew up together, and then my cousin went abroad and Sister Peifang got married, and the relationship between the two faded away."

"I see, the two of them are having fun..." Carlisle said with a naughty smile.

"There's drama in everything, don't talk nonsense!" Liu Chunjiang said in disbelief.

"Let's make a bet if you don't believe me," Carlisle raised his eyebrows provocatively.

"Okay, just bet!" Liu Chunjiang replied impatiently.

"It's settled. Those who lose the bet must agree to one condition unconditionally." Carlisle was about to smile in his heart, but his face was tense, let alone uncomfortable.

"Okay, it's a deal." As soon as the two clapped their hands, the matter was considered a deal, and the pure little white sheep didn't know that it had fallen into the trap of the big bad wolf.

The two looked around. At this time, the group of people was divided into small waves, and Carlisle took Liu Chunjiang, who was not very proficient in riding a horse, to cross the world of two people.

The reputation is that Carlisle taught Liu Chunjiang how to ride a horse. In fact, Carlisle is shamelessly taking advantage of Liu Chunjiang. In short, the two of them are very happy.

Carlisle, who was happily molesting Liu Chunjiang, didn't know that because of Wu Peifang's incident, Jin Minzhi didn't come to him, and he escaped indirectly. It was so dangerous...

"Oh, where do you put your hands..."

"Aren't I afraid that you will fall, so I hold you up?"

Without paying attention, Carlisle ran to Liu Chunjiang's horse, and the two rode together, and Liu Chunjiang complained from a distance.

Overall, this day's travel is still very good.

When Qi Feng returned home, he told his mother about Wu Peifang. Mrs. Qi also sighed and felt sorry for Peifang, but she could tell from her tone that his mother still liked Peifang very much. Qi Feng decided to proceed step by step. Take it easy.

"Mom, I met her at the racecourse today," Qi Feng said.

"Really, how is Peifang doing recently? She just got divorced, so it's not easy for me to visit her." Mother Qi asked with concern.

"She looks good, and it seems that she has completely walked out."

"That's good, that's good. Women are afraid of marrying the wrong person. I thought the eldest son of the Jin family was not bad, but I didn't expect him to be like this. If you ask me, Pei Fang's marriage and divorce are good..."

"Yeah, I think so too, but you haven't seen, there is someone beside Jin Fengju again." Qi Feng said with disgust on his face.

"I know this. Some time ago, Mrs. Jin went around asking about unmarried ladies, but people with high status didn't accept her fault. She was a little too anxious. She just got divorced like this. What kind of life did Peifang live in the past? !” Mother Qi said heartbroken.

"Mom, someday ask sister Fang to come to our house to play?"

"Okay, mom posted a post for her. I didn't call her at first, because she was afraid that she hadn't come out yet and didn't want to socialize. Now that the trend has passed, it's good to go out for a stroll." Hearing what her son said, Qi's mother immediately responded. road.

"Well, Mom, then I'll go back to my room first."

"Go, go, remember to take a shower, look at this dirty body." Mother Qi patted his clothes.

"Got it," Qi Feng agreed, and left.

After returning to his room, Qi Feng thought about his mother's attitude, and it seemed that he still liked Peifang very much, so he let go of half of his heart and went to clean up.

Wu family

Wu's father and Wu's mother learned that Pei Fang had fallen off the horse, and angrily scolded the Jin family, thinking that it was not enough for the Jin family to harm their daughter's happiness, but also to kill their own daughter. They really owed their family in the previous life.

The two quickly called the doctor, and after taking the daughter's pulse and seeing that there was no injury, the anger subsided a little.

However, Father Wu here still decided that he must talk to Jin Quan about his good daughter tomorrow.

Seeing that her daughter was fine, Mother Wu gently touched Peifang's face and told her to go back and have a good rest.

Wu Peifang went back to the room to tidy up, lay down on the bed and tossed and turned, unable to sleep, thinking of Qi Feng's broad and warm embrace when he fell off the horse, blushed, and said to herself: "Bah, bah, bah, what are you thinking? Go to sleep, go to sleep..."

Wu Peifang, who was self-hypnotic, fell asleep after a while.

Peking Hotel

Because after Qi Feng got acquainted with Carlisle at the racecourse, he learned that Carlisle was the younger brother of the famous British Marquess William, so he knew the source of his army's ammunition.

Carlisle's family, as one of the oldest families in England, actually started their fortunes from his father's generation, especially his brother William, who expanded the family business to various fields, the most important of which was arms. You know, arms are huge profits.Secondly, it is the pharmaceutical industry on the mother's side, and the family is becoming more and more powerful.

Because of Liu Chunjiang's relationship, the two of them gained a lot of trust, so they were able to sit at the dinner table and discuss this business.

Qi Feng's family is a military family and has its own army, so the demand for ammunition has always been huge.Although the army belongs to the government in name, it actually belongs to the Qi family and only listens to the Qi family.

Because of this, the government's support for Qijia's army is not sufficient, military expenses are often in arrears, and weapons are not distributed every time, or they are defective products.

This is because the Liu family has a financial secretary, otherwise, it is estimated that it would not be in the hands of the Qi family at all.

Therefore, the Qi family's military expenses and weapons have always been purchased by themselves, and foreigners have usually raised the price a lot, but there is no way, if they want sophisticated weapons, they have to do so.

So this meeting with Carlisle, Qi Feng also attaches great importance to it. If this meeting is successful, the family will not have to worry about the source of the arms in the future, and there is no need to be tricked too much.

The conversation started in a friendly atmosphere, and the two went straight to the point.

"Mr. Carlyle, we want ten thousand Mauser guns, three thousand gun guns, look..."

"That's fine, let's talk about the price."

"Well, we can give the domestic market price, what does Mr. Carlisle think?" Qi Feng said sincerely.

The market price in China is much higher than that in foreign countries, so Carlisle thought for a while and said, "There is no need for the market price. I can give you a [-]% discount. You are Xiaojiang's cousin. I will still give you this face."

"Thank you so much, I will treat you and my cousin to dinner someday." Qi Feng said happily when he heard this, knowing that he was actually looking at Liu Chunjiang's face.

"Happy cooperation!"

"Happy cooperation!"

The rest of the details can only be discussed with the secretaries of the two, so the two talked about other things.Most of them were Carlisle asking about Liu Chunjiang's childhood.

Qi Feng was also very interested in telling Carlisle about the jokes that Liu Chunjiang made when he was a child. You know, when Qi Feng was young, he was picked up by the Liu family as a guest besides visiting Wu's house.

Both of them enjoyed their meal, Carlisle was happy because he learned a lot about Liu Chunjiang, and Qi Feng was happy because he made this deal.

Within two days, Qi Feng, who had finished his work at hand, was dragged by his mother to visit Liu's house.

The current Director Liu is Mrs. Qi's younger brother. Speaking of which, the old man of the Liu family has two sons and one daughter. The eldest son stays in the Liu family's old house in Hangzhou to take care of his parents. The second child is a daughter who married into the Qi family. She is Qi Feng's mother Liu Min, the youngest son is Director Liu.

So Liu Min's most frequent visit is Director Liu's house, so she has always had a good relationship with Mrs. Liu, a younger sibling.

No, seeing her sister-in-law brought back her nephew whom she hadn't seen for a long time, Madam Liu hurriedly asked someone to make a large table of dishes and saved dinner.

As a result, at the dinner table, before Mother Liu could take a bite, she smelled the freshly served fish soup and started to retch, causing Father Liu and Liu Chunjiang to rush to ask for a doctor, forgetting that there was a doctor at home.

It was Liu Min who looked at the worried look of his younger brother and his family, and then thought about how his younger siblings looked like just now, why they looked so pregnant, and when he thought about the age of his younger siblings, 35 years old is not very old, so he kept his doubts in his heart, and waited for the doctor Let’s talk about the diagnosis, it’s not good if it doesn’t make people happy.

After a while, the doctor often used by the Liu family came, took his pulse, and said with a smile: "Congratulations, Madam, you are very happy."

"Ah!" The Liu family was stunned for a moment, but did not react.

In the end, it was Liu Min who called out, and Father Liu hurriedly asked: "Doctor, do you think there is any problem with my wife giving birth at this age?"

"Ma'am is not very old, and judging from the pulse condition, the fetus is also very stable. As long as you take good care of it, it will not be a big problem." The old doctor said after consideration.

"That's good, that's good," Father Liu happily rubbed his hands, not knowing what to say.

After a while, I suddenly remembered, and asked: "Here, what do you need to pay attention to usually, please write me a list from the doctor."

"Okay, okay," the old doctor has seen this kind of situation a lot, and he has long been used to it, and wrote one by one very patiently, and told him for a long time if he wrote it.

Next to him, Liu's father wrote down one by one seriously, and Liu's mother laughed when he saw the seriousness.

Liu Chunjiang was in another mood. He was very happy about his mother's pregnancy. The most important thing was that the Liu family had another offspring, preferably a son, so it would be fine if he didn't get married.

Otherwise, he really didn't know how to tell his parents about being with Carlisle.

Because Mother Liu was pregnant, Liu Chunjiang felt that half of the shackles on his head had been lifted.

Here, Liu Min is also sincerely happy to see her younger siblings getting pregnant. Their Liu family has always had few children, and even she herself is only one son, Qi Feng. Fighting, there is really nothing better than this.

Now that the Liu family was about to have a new baby, Liu Min immediately sent a telegram to inform Mrs. Liu and Mrs. He Liu, so that everyone would be happy.

Since then, Mrs. Liu has lived a life of confinement, and has no time to worry about Liu Chunjiang's marriage, so in the past few months, Liu Chunjiang has been very happy, walking with wind.

Shanghai

Since Carlisle returned to Beiping, he handed over the affairs of the film company to Kevin, and the affairs of the pharmaceutical factory to Kong Lifu as a contact person, because Kong Lifu still has a newspaper office to work on, and the pharmaceutical factory has a major issue only to find him.

The past few months have been uneventful. I don't know if the Japanese dare not move after suffering a disadvantage, or there are some bigger secrets brewing.

Leng Qingqiu's part-time job at the newspaper office has also been completed, because school will start soon, and he doesn't have time to come back every day.Although his financial situation has improved, it is not enough to bring his mother in. What Leng Qingqiu thinks now is, how can he earn more money?

One day, when she saw a short story in Shanghai Weekly that encouraged women to be independent, she thought that she could write the story of her previous life, one can earn some manuscript fees, and the other can also serve as a wake-up call for contemporary women .

Leng Qingqiu went ahead and wrote [-] words in two days, meeting the requirements for a manuscript, and submitted it to Shanghai Weekly, which has always called for women's independence.

After submitting the manuscript, she also took time out to write a little bit every day, because it was something she had experienced, and she was able to write it with ease, and spent her days anxiously waiting for the newspaper's reply...
