The Rise of the Writers of the Republic of China

The staff member's surname is Shen, and his name is Shen Yaorong. He is the third eldest in the family.

Shen Yaorong was a scholar in the former Qing Dynasty, but unfortunately the imperial examination system was abolished before he had time to take the examination for scholars. He can only make a living by teaching in the village school, barely earn enough food and clothing, and can't even get a wife.

Until 1918, that is, eight years ago, Zhang Zongchang's troops were dispersed by Chen Guangyuan, and his general Chu Yupu fled to the northeast with the remnants of Zhang Zuolin.

At that time, Chu Yupu was a dog in the water, and the army around him was less than 200 people. But to Shen Yaorong, a poor teacher, Chu Yupu was a thigh, and he came to work automatically as an aide, and finally got a living.

Relying on his cleverness to come up with a few ghost ideas, Shen Yaorong was quickly reused, and he got along smoothly under Chu Yupu's command. But as Chu Yupu gradually grew bigger, Shen Yaorong's ability was not enough, and he degenerated from a military staff officer to a helper. His greatest role now is to find women and have fun for Commander Chu.

However, Shen Yaorong often boasted about Wang Zuozhi's talent, thinking that he fell out of favor because he and Chu Yupu were not from the same hometown, and he was full of resentment.

Especially a few days ago, Gao Enpu from Gao Village in Wenshang County came to seek refuge. Just because he was close to Chu Yupu's natal family, he turned from a rural rich man to a member of the Shandong Provincial Council.

It just doesn't make sense!

Shen Yaorong is envious and jealous, and only blames his mother for giving birth to him in the wrong place. It would be nice if he was born in Wenshang County.

After tidying up his gown carefully, Shen Yaorong said to Zhou Hexuan: "You better be honest when you see the commander in chief!"

Seeing that there was no one around, Zhou Hexuan stuffed the remaining 30 silver dollars into Shen Yaorong's hands, and said to please Shen Yaorong: "Master Shen, you are a celebrity in front of the general, please take care of me in the future."

"Well, you still have some discernment." Shen Yaorong weighed the ocean in his hand, put it away quite usefully, and stopped thinking about Zhou Hexuan's nonsense before. His monthly salary is only 20 yuan, and it is not up to him to pay for getting a card. The biggest income is these filial money.

After a while, Chu Yupu's adjutant came over and said, "Go in, the commander is waiting."

Zhou Hexuan bowed his fists respectfully to the adjutant, but Shen Yaorong held his head high. He considered himself a veteran and looked down on the adjutant who had only joined the army two years ago.

Shen Yaorong led Zhou Hexuan in arrogantly, and the moment he saw Chu Yupu, the master seemed to have practiced bone shrinking skills, he became a foot shorter out of thin air, nodded and said, "Commander, I brought Jin Yong here. "

Zhou Hexuan was just the opposite. He kept his posture very low in front of soldiers, adjutants and masters. But when he saw Chu Yupu, he straightened his waist, showing the image of an upright and dignified scholar.

The reason for this is very simple, because he specifically asked Li Shoumin about Chu Yupu's personality last night. After all, he is the actual ruler of Tianjin. Zhou Hexuan had to plan ahead, but he didn't expect to use it so soon.

Marshal Chu has studied for several years. When the Great Revolution broke out, he went to the military academy. Unfortunately, his cultural level was so poor that he failed the exam twice in a row, and even his whole family fell to the point of being beggars. The Chu family managed to reclaim a few acres of wasteland by the Weishan Lake. It was the harvest season, and local tyrants and bullies came and took away all the crops and land.

It was in this situation that Chu Yupu became a bandit. He colluded with the local gentry and bought guns with money. His men quickly grew to 3,000. Later, he climbed up to Chen Qimei's distant relatives, successfully joined the Revolutionary Party, and became Zhang Zongchang's cavalry company commander.

Although this gentleman is ignorant and does not know a few big characters, he respects the gentry and literati very much.

As long as Zhou Hexuan showed the demeanor of a scholar, acted coquettishly, and flattered him at critical moments, he would definitely win Chu Yupu's favor.

"Are you Jin Yong?" Chu Yupu sat on the sofa with a stern look, looking up and down at Zhou Hexuan with both eyes.

Zhou Hexuan was also observing Chu Yupu, and found that this guy was actually a short man, who could reach 1.6 meters when he was stretched to death. However, although he is short, he has a gangster air all over his body, and he looks like the kind of master who kills without blinking an eye.

"My name is Zhou Hexuan, and Jin Yong is my pen name." Zhou Hexuan replied neither humble nor overbearing.

Chu Yupu waved his hand to let Shen Yaorong back down, and then asked, "Where are you from?"

"From Zhili." Zhou Hexuan said.

Chu Yupu was a little disappointed when he heard this. In his eyes, only Shandong people are heroes, and Wenshang people are even more heroes. He asked again, "Have you ever stayed abroad?"

Zhou Hexuan raised his head and replied: "I grew up in Nanyang, and spent ten years traveling around Europe and the United States. I visited Japan a few years ago, and even went to the Soviet Union and Australia. I am familiar with English, French, Japanese, German, Russian, and Italian. Six languages."

It was so awesome that Chu Yupu finally became interested. He asked, "Why can't you speak American?"

"Eh..." Zhou Hexuan didn't know what to say.

"What the hell?" Chu Yupu said unhappily, "You scholars always hide your head and show your tail when you speak, and you are not at all tactful."

Zhou Hexuan sweated wildly: "Marshal Bing, this American dialect is the British dialect."

"Fart, the United States is the United States, and the United Kingdom is the United Kingdom. How can Americans speak English? You are so foolish as me!" Chu Yupu patted the sofa angrily.

Zhou Hexuan could only explain: "Commander, the United States was still a colony of the British more than a hundred years ago, so they speak English."

Chu Yupu smacked his lips: "It seems that there is such a thing."

Zhou Hexuan didn't dare to display the scholar's score anymore, for fear that the commander-in-chief would not understand the mystery, so he flattered him, "The commander-in-chief is wise."

Chu Yupu scratched his forehead with his fingers, and suddenly had a new idea: "Since you can speak so many languages, you can stay with me as a foreign language secretary in the future." He cursed, "His grandma is a bear, the last time I saw you Zhang Shaoshuai, he has three secretaries with him, one Chinese secretary, one English secretary, and one French secretary. Lao Tzu is also a handsome man now, and the famous governor of Zhili must have a few foreign language secretaries to act as a front .”

Chu Yupu belongs to the nouveau riche among the warlords, and he became the commander of the army only because of his military exploits the year before last. This year, he served as the commander-in-chief of the former enemy in the First Army of the Zhili-Shandong Allied Army. He led his troops to conquer Pingjin, and finally had his own territory-Zhili Province. He is so proud of himself now that he doesn't even pay attention to his old boss Zhang Zongchang. He is learning from Zhang Zuolin and his son everywhere, such as this foreign language secretary.

Zhou Hexuan really didn't want to follow this bastard general, and he didn't know when he would be shot to death, so he declined, "Commander, I'm used to leisure, I'm afraid..."

"Bang!"

Chu Yupu got up and kicked the stool over, pulled out the gun on his waist and said, "If you don't do it, you have to do it, or I'll blow you with one shot!"

Nimabi!

Zhou Hexuan twitched his middle finger in his heart, and said with a wry smile: "All right, but let the commander-in-chief decide."

Chu Yupu just sat back, leaned on the sofa and said: "Just promise, I will hang out with the general in the future, and I promise to be popular and spicy. By the way, go and write the scene after "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" , I’m still waiting to hear it tomorrow.”

Zhou Hexuan regretted it, you must not pretend to be a man, and you will definitely be struck by lightning if you pretend to be aggressive. If he hadn't boasted that he was proficient in multiple languages, he would never have been left as a foreign language secretary. At most, he would regain his freedom after finishing "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".
