The mage in the late Qing Dynasty

Zhao Chuanxin was not sure that Aixinjueluo Yikuang would obediently give the money.

He has controlled the government for many years, sold his official positions, took bribes, and organized party members. He is also a man who can change everything with one hand.

Aixinjueluo Zai Zhen is not the only son. If the old guy doesn't take his eldest son seriously and treats him as a disposable chess piece, then Zhao Chuanxin will be doing useless work.

Zhao Chuanxin's claim of one million pounds was also calculated.

It is said that Aixinjueluo Yikuang likes to save money in foreign banks, especially the British HSBC Bank.

It just so happens that Zhao Chuanxin also likes to withdraw money from HSBC Bank.

He had withdrawn money once before, and it seemed that Yikuang's money was in it. His argument with the British finally came to no result. He probably suffered a dumb loss. I don't know how much he lost.

Banks in later generations were also screwed up. If there was an elderly person at home, the bank clerk would have his nose stuck in his neck.

When Zhao Chuanxin's grandma passed away, he went to withdraw money, but the bank asked for a death certificate.

I went with the death certificate and asked for immediate family members.

The blood of the emotional grandson is impure?

Zhao Chuanxin's father went there, and he was stuck asking for other documents... After many attempts, he finally got out more than 3,000 yuan, which was a lot of money for gas.

Aixinjueluo Yikuang's small treasury has generally shrunk a bit.

Zhao Chuanxin couldn't take all the remaining money.

If he were to go bankrupt, the old man would most likely break the pot.

So as a compromise, 1 million pounds is just right.

For a person who loves money as much as his life, taking his money would be more uncomfortable than killing him.

Zhao Chuanxin probed: "Azhen, how much does your father have left of his 7 million pounds?"

Aixinjueluo Zai Zhen firmly denied: "My father doesn't have that much money. He only has a salary of tens of thousands taels. I'm afraid you will be disappointed."

"Look what you said, even if you sell an official position, you will get more than this amount of money. Which one of us will follow the other? What's the point of you keeping secret from me?"

"..."

Am I familiar with you?

Being suppressed by force, someone else, Aixinjueluo Zai Zhen, would have slapped him with his mouth.

It would be true to say that he is a playboy, and he has a temper, but he is quite measured in how he behaves, especially how to advance and retreat.

Nowadays, people work hard to adjust their mentality, and finally accept the reality.

He began to speak the truth for the first time: "Captain Zhao, first of all, my father doesn't have that much money. Secondly, I understand your character to some extent. You are reasonable..."

Zhao Chuanxin stretched out his hand and interrupted: "Tai, stop, stop, you know nothing. As we all know, although I like to convince people with virtue, I am never unreasonable."

"..." These words are really not contradictory at all. Aixinjueluo Zaizhen smiled bitterly: "Captain Zhao, you have misunderstood me. I know you are patriotic. And I have been the Minister of Agriculture, Industry and Commerce for several years. Although he didn't have much credit, he did a few practical things. He did a lot of business and education."

"Oh?" Zhao Chuanxin was surprised: "What have you done?"

"I visited France, Belgium, and the United States to study, and I inspected their fifth industry exposition in Japan. After returning to China, I petitioned the court to establish the Ministry of Commerce. I actively participated in the New Deal. Last year, I also participated in the reform of the official system. My avatar , are all printed on the banknotes issued by Shanghai Xincheng Bank. Take this year for example, I single-handedly organized the Zhili United Sports Games of Beiyang University, which included dozens of events.

Among them, the "Restoration of Road Rights" walking competition is to express our patriotic competition with foreigners to compete for the right to own the railway.

If you hadn't imprisoned me, I would have gone to Peiyang University to watch the game tomorrow. "

When Zhao Chuanxin heard about the competition to "restorate the right of way," he felt dumbfounded.

This name is full of political education.

But it makes this sports meeting seem a bit irregular.

He said: "I didn't expect that you are a person of noble character like me. We both have noble and interesting souls. But, Zhen, you have to understand that this doesn't change the fact that your father needs to give you money in exchange for you." Facts. At most, I will upgrade you from a low-grade slave to a middle-grade slave."

Aixinjueluo Zai Zhen's throat felt sweet...

I have never seen such a lack of oil and salt.

How can you say that he is also the future prince, and he has already discussed it in a low-key manner, and in the end he was transformed from a low-grade slave to a middle-grade slave?

He stopped talking.

There is nothing good to say to this kind of person.

He stopped talking, but Zhao Chuanxin became more interested: "A Zhen, two XHQ bannermen have kneeled down for me. Today, come and make up the number, and kneel down for me too."

"..."

"Don't be shy, you will get used to kneeling down."

Aixinjueluo Zaizhen was very suspicious of the meaning of these words, but he could not find any evidence.

Finally, he choked out: "I am Xiang Lanqi!"

"..." Zhao Chuanxin's face was full of disappointment: "That's it, forget it. You are wearing a blue flag, you are not worthy of kneeling to me. Let Cixi come later. By the way, what color is Cixi's flag?"

Aixinjueluo Zai Zhen was somewhat used to Zhao Chuanxin's shocking words.

He had said before that if he didn't give money, he would send himself down early to wait for Cixi.

He said helplessly: "Lafayette was originally a blue flag, but was later 'carried' into a yellow flag."

"That's OK, no matter whether it's nature or nurture, it's fine if it's Huang. Because Zhao is sworn in with gambling and drug addiction!"

"..."

Aixinjueluo Zaizhen regretted it.

The mouth of the guy in front of me seems to be like this naturally. How can it be compared with him?

Thinking of this, he wanted to slap himself.

If it hadn't been for what happened on the train, there wouldn't have been any imprisonment at this time.

Seeing that he was in a low mood, Zhao Chuanxin patted him on the shoulder and said in a comforting tone: "My prince, don't be sad. Life is always full of helplessness. For one million pounds, if you make a friend, you two will not lose. According to this With my past temper, you wouldn't be able to survive tonight. Now that I'm older, I've begun to know how to work for a living. The society is becoming more and more impetuous, and people like me work hard just to make a living with a million pounds. Running out."

Seeing Zhao Chuanxin speaking seriously, Aixinjueluo Zaizhen secretly cursed him for being shameless. One million pounds is so casual. Do you know how many officials it costs to sell...ah, what a shrewd financial management mind it takes. Can I earn it back?

He spoke sincerely and felt that he could still fight for it: "I heard that Captain Zhao likes to teach and educate people?"

Zhao Chuanxin exclaimed: "Zhao really cares about the physical and mental health of the next generation of female college students. He is very worried about this. He really wants to invest a sum of money in a girls' school and customize short skirt uniforms for them that are in line with international trends. But. But How do you know this?"

"..." Aixinjueluo Zai Zhen opened his mouth. He thought he was a romantic figure, but looking at Zhao Chuanxin's face, he found that he was still a minor figure. "This...I mean, Captain Zhao wants to donate to Beiyang University."

"What?" Zhao Chuanxin was confused: "When did Zhao say that he would donate money to Beiyang University? Isn't this nonsense? Why should I pay for a school run by the Qing court?"

Then Aixinjueluo Zaizhen recalled everything that happened that day and suddenly laughed: "That's it, that's it! Liang Dunyan, Liang Dunyan, all the mechanisms have been exhausted, and in the end they are all in vain!"

He was invited that day to listen to a speech by a patriotic person. Liang Dunyan vowed that the person would donate a donation to the school, as long as Aisin Gioro Zai Zhen showed up and gave him enough face.

Aixinjueluo Zai Zhen went there, and then discovered that Zhao Chuanxin was Lucian. A conflict broke out between the two parties, leading to a series of negative consequences.

The fight broke out out of nowhere and out of nowhere.

Before the fight started, Liang Dunyan listened to Yinghua and ran away.

When I came back, I was stunned to see that there was already a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood outside the auditorium.

Not only did he not get any donations, but he also had to clean the campus and repair the dilapidated auditorium, so another sum of money was spent.

And Zhao Chuanxin has long been missing.

I lost my wife and lost my troops!

The angry old man stamped his feet and regretted it too late.

Zhao Chuanxin was also a smart man, and he narrowed his eyes: "It turns out that old man Liang Dunyan plotted against me, but I thought he was interested in Zhao's noble integrity and profound knowledge that broke away from vulgar taste! It's really unreasonable!"

Aixinjueluo Zai Zhen glanced at Zhao Chuanxin with disdain.

Are you worthy of noble integrity and profound knowledge?

The more Zhao Chuanxin thought about it, the angrier he became.

He gritted his teeth and became angry: "No one in this group of you is good! Every one of them seems to be innocent, but they are smarter than monkeys in their hair. No, this matter is not over!"

Just as he was talking, a group of people came onto the Laolongtou pontoon in an aggressive manner.

It was particularly lively today, with people coming including Yuan Datou, Aixinjueluo Yikuang, and even Zhao Chuanxin saw Yang Yide and Zhang Zhankui.

Everything that should come has come.

Among these people, Aixinjueluo Yikuang was the most noble, and he was the only one to ride in a sedan carried by four people.

As soon as he arrived, Aixinjueluo Yikuang jumped down from the sedan nimbly despite his age.

"Son..."

Without even thinking about it, Zhao Chuanxin grabbed Aixinjueluo Zaizhen, whom he had just had a good chat with, and pulled him in front of him as a shield to prevent someone from making a cold shot.

Zhao Chuanxin shouted: "Prince Qing, have you brought the money?"

I don’t know which idiot shouted: "Zhao Chuanxin, I advise you not to be disrespectful and let His Royal Highness go!"

"Go away, you are paralyzed!" Zhao Chuanxin uttered fragrant words: "If anyone shouts, stand up and let me take a look. I will send you down first to wait for Lafayette!"

There was a middle-aged man next to Yuan Datou, half-hiding behind Aixinjueluo Yikuang, shouting at Zhao Chuanxin: "Fuck Zhao Chuanxin, Governor Yuan is here in person today, let's see if you still dare to be arrogant!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the gun went off!

Because only one shoulder was exposed, he was immediately shot in the shoulder.

Immediately he cried out in pain.

Everyone was shocked!

Take action as soon as you say it. Is Zhao Chuanxin so reckless and strong?

Zhao Chuanxin put away his rifle and shouted towards the shore: "What's your name? Who the hell are you talking to?"

Yuan Datou, Aixinjueluo, Yikuang and others retreated in shock.

However, there were two people who stood in front of Aixinjueluo Yikuang and Yuan Datou with great righteousness and courage.

The two are: Yang Yide and Zhang Zhankui!

Yang Yide coughed and shouted: "Zhao Chuanxin, although Yang has never dealt with you, Yang is not afraid of you. If you dare, shoot me to death!"

Zhang Zhankui is not as tactful as Yang Yide, but he was inspired at this time and said loudly: "Yes, if General Manager Yang dies, I, Zhang Zhankui, will still be in the way. Don't think that everyone will be intimidated by your lust!"

Yuan Datou and Aixinjueluo Yikuang were greatly moved.

Seeing that the other subordinates were hiding, only these two people stood in front of them without thinking.

This is subconscious loyalty!

This kind of loyalty and courage cannot be fake.

But what Yang Yide was thinking was: Brother Zhao took my hint and his marksmanship is as good as a god, so I don’t have to worry at all.

What Zhang Zhankui was thinking was: Of course Mr. Zhao would not shoot me!

Sure enough, the people on the boat said, "Zhao didn't expect that there are two heroes here who are not afraid of death?"

But he was cursing secretly in his heart: You two idiots put on a good show, and you used me as a supporting role as a tool, right?

After all, you have to give them some thin noodles, and loyal and traitor people also need to stack buffs.

Yuan Datou felt a little relieved when he saw that the madman Zhao Chuanxin seemed to be calmed down by his two capable men.

He first went to see the injured person: "Xiangyan, how are you?"

This person can be considered one of the parties involved, Duan Zhigui!

Of course Duan Zhigui was in pain, the bones in his shoulder should have been broken.

A large amount of sweat kept falling on his forehead: "Governor, don't worry about me, I won't die yet."

Yuan Datou secretly sighed: Hey, they are all loyal and brave people. These people will be of great use in the future!

Thinking that he still had a group of loyal subordinates, Yuan Datou was no longer so afraid. He felt a little heroic out of thin air and stepped forward and said: "Zhao Chuanxin, do you know that you have offended the Queen Mother? The Queen Mother is furious and has decided to arrest you and kill you." Not only that, if you return to Lugang Town, the Queen Mother is determined to eradicate you and Lugang Town together. I hereby assure you that if you let the crown prince go, I will intercede with the Queen Mother on your behalf, and maybe you can avoid the death penalty. !”

"Damn it, did I hear you right?" Zhao Chuanxin was happy after Aixinjueluo Zai Zhen died: "Zhao has not exempted you from the death penalty, but you are talking to me about exempting him from death?"

Yuan Datou's nose was almost crooked with anger: "Zhao Chuanxin, don't toast me and you will be punished with a drink!"

"Haha, let me ask you, did you bring the money or bring everything? If you didn't bring it, His Highness the Crown Prince will die today! Your clamor is a funeral song for His Highness the Crown Prince!"

"you……"

"Haha, let me give the Crown Prince a lesson first!"

With that said, Zhao Chuanxian used the elf carving knife, held it three inches between his fingers, and stabbed Aixinjueluo Zai Zhen's back shoulder blade!

Aixinjueluo Zai Zhen howled miserably!

Aixinjueluo Yikuang's eyes widened: "My son..."

"Stop it, stop it!"

Yuan Datou felt sweat on his forehead.

"Stop?" Zhao Chuanxin said with an innocent face: "I'm sorry, I can't control my hands and can't stop at all."

After saying that, it fell like raindrops as if giving Aisin Gioro Zai Zhen a slap on the back.

The only thing is: this back was hammered with an elf carving knife.

The voice Aisin Gioro Zai Zhen made at this time did not sound like a human voice at all.

Those who heard the sound were horrified, and those who saw it shed tears. It was extremely miserable!

"Father, father, save me..."

Aixinjueluo Zai Zhen originally wanted to bite the bullet and pretend to be a hero.

It's a pity that he is really not that material.

That was his own flesh and blood, his eldest son. Aixinjueluo Yikuang felt so distressed that his eyes turned black. He shouted with trembling lips: "Zhao Chuanxin, I promise you, I will give you money! Promise!" Yes, I agree, let my son go now!"

When Zhao Chuanxin heard this, he stopped immediately.

He said with compassion: "What a human tragedy. Zhao is soft-hearted and cannot bear to see this cruel scene. Otherwise, Governor Yuan is a bad person and is cruel to let the prince suffer such a crime!"

What does it have to do with me?

Yuan Datou immediately retorted: "Zhao Chuanxin, don't talk nonsense! It's clearly you..."

Zhao Chuanxin interrupted him: "Zhao is sick and can't bear the stress. If anyone dares to shout and show off in front of me, then Zhao will become ill and lose control of his hands! Do you think it's your fault? It's obvious. I suspect you did the good deeds on purpose. Is the Crown Prince probably having a grudge against you? Look, you still dare to yell at me now. Oh my, what's the use of my hands? I can't control them anymore... "

"you……"

As the dignified Governor-General of Zhili and the leader of the New Deal, Yuan Datou rarely had the opportunity to show off his rhetoric.

No chance to know? Who dares to challenge him?

But Zhao Chuanxin did not regard him as an "outsider" at all.

Zhao Chuanxin turned to Aixinjueluo Yikuang: "Prince Qing, where is the money?"

Aixinjueluo Yikuang's beard trembled, feeling even more distressed at this moment.

And it’s a constant struggle: distressed +1, distressed +1…

He pointed to the shore outside the Laolongtou pontoon: "There."

Zhao Chuanxin said: "Let them move to the pontoon and throw them into the Haihe River!"

Everyone was surprised.

Throw it into the river?

Is this person crazy?

Zhao Chuanxin did not explain: "Hurry up, let them throw the money into the river together with the box. If you wait any longer, the prince will suffer!"

Aixinjueluo Zaizhen was frightened when he heard this.

He wailed: "Father, please listen to him, I can't stand that kind of torture anymore!"

Aixinjueluo Yikuang finally made a decision: "Come here, move the boxes!"

Once silver dollars and silver taels are worth tens of millions, their size is not exaggerated, but their weight is scary.

Aixinjueluo Yikuang had some crooked thoughts here. Although Zhao Chuanxian wanted pounds, he did not use gold coins or banknotes, but exchanged them all for silver taels and silver dollars.

Boxes after boxes were carried onto the pontoon with groans, and then thrown into the water.

Looking at the splashing water, Aixinjueluo Yikuang's eyelids twitched, and he thought to himself: He won't be able to take it away by himself later. I will find someone to salvage the silver. It will take some effort, but it can still be saved. one time.

Thinking about it this way, his heartache was no longer so severe, and he focused on Aixinjueluo Zai Zhen.

After all the boxes were thrown into the water, Aixinjueluo Yikuang said to Zhao Chuanxin: "I have done what you asked, should I let my son go?"

Zhao Chuanxin stood with his hands behind his back and said quite proudly: "Don't ask me, Zhao is always an honest man when doing business. If a middle-grade slave is sold for one million pounds, it will be one million pounds. But , you guys wait there, I’ll count the money first!”

Everyone bared their teeth when they heard Zhao Chuanxin calling Aixinjueluo Zai Zhen a middle-grade slave.

That is Prince Qing who will inherit the title in the future. Do you call him a slave? Also divided into categories?

But Zhao Chuanxin jumped into the water with a "pop" sound.

Aixinjueluo Yikuang immediately said to Yuan Datou: "Quick, rescue my son now!"

Yuan Datou: "..."

The boat is still some distance away from the Laolongtou pontoon. How can we save it?

The water is so cold now, can we swim across it? Even if you swim over, the boat has no poles or oars at all, how can you row it? Without a paddle, all depends on the waves?

However, when he looked at the bottomless sea river, he had the urge to take a gun and fire randomly into the water.

But he still held it back, turned around and said to his subordinates: "Go, climb up and signal, it's time for the Marine Police.

Prince, don't worry, I have prepared five steamboats, dozens of marine police, and a dragnet has been set up on the shore.

This time I personally supervise the battle!

He, Zhao Chuanxin, doesn’t understand and thinks we are prey, but actually he is! "

After saying that, his face was full of pride.

Yuan Datou's careful arrangements gave Aixinjueluo Yikuang some peace of mind.

At this moment, Zhao Chuanxin's hateful voice came from under the pontoon under their feet...
