Chapter 42 Charles Meng

A stylish three-piece suit.

For authentic British tweed fabrics, you must know that in the past two years, British tweed has been really difficult to obtain, so "Zhanghua" brand woven fabrics are generally used instead.

From shirts to ties, everything is American "ARROW" brand.

This has a resounding Chinese name in later generations:

Wrigley!

Meng Shaoyuan never expected that in this era, Wrigley would be a brand of shirts and ties.

As for the leather shoes, they are customized "BOBSHOE" brand from the "Fifth Street Shoe Store" in Jing'an Temple, Shanghai.

This was carefully prepared by Manager Ge.

When they were shopping yesterday, Zhu Yanni and the others bought gifts for Meng Shaoyuan.

Mu Dekai presented a gold-plated key chain of "SWANK" brand, Yuan Zhonghe presented a wallet of the same brand, and Xiang Shounong presented a "Crown" brand lighter.

Zhu Yanni’s gift is the most valuable: a “Longines” brand watch.

This is worth a lot of money.

Mu Dekai said: "If a little girl spends money lavishly, she will be disliked by her husband's family in the future."

Zhu Yanni blushed and spat at Mu Dekai.

Not only that, Manager Ge also specially hired a hair shaver.

This hair-shaving master named "Xiao Su Bei" has excellent skills.

He carefully helped Meng Shaoyuan trim his hair and shave his face.

This shaving technique is something that only a master shaving master will not be able to do.

It's done with a razor from start to finish.

First use a razor to carefully shave off the beard and the hair on your face, forehead, and behind the ears. Then turn out your eyelids and still use a razor to shave. It is much more professional than trimming your eyebrows later.

Just such a set of procedures can make you fall asleep soundly. When you wake up, your face will be white and clean, fresh and refreshing, and you will look at least three or four years younger.

This isn't the end yet.

Here comes the most classic one.

Little Su Bei woke up Meng Shaoyuan and asked him to sit up, then turned the razor over and used the back of the razor to start from his head and beat all the way to his neck, shoulders, and back.

During the whole process, the razor in Xiao Su Bei's hand was like a dancing elf.

This is called "jumping knife", which is a unique skill in the hair-shaving industry.

After one round of jumping knife, Meng Shaoyuan's bones all over his body were soft and soft. He wanted to be as comfortable as he wanted, as comfortable as he wanted. In his time, all the massages were useless, and he stood aside.

This unique skill of jumping swords has been basically lost in Meng Shaoyuan's era.

Finally, Xiao Su Bei took out the hair wax and carefully helped Meng Shaoyuan make his hair shiny.

When I stood up and looked in the mirror, I saw that with this outfit and hairstyle, I couldn't believe that I was a spy from the Lixing Society. I looked like a young man from a wealthy family.

"well."

Meng Shaoyuan was full of praise, took out a handful of French coins from his pocket, and gave them all to Xiao Su Bei without even looking at them.

"Thank you, boss, thank you, boss." Xiao Su Beike was so happy.

Meng Shaoyuan turned around and saw Zhu Yanni looking at him dreamily, with a strange light flashing in her eyes.

"Doesn't look good?"

Meng Shaoyuan asked.

Zhu Yanni's face turned red again, and her voice sounded like words: "It's so beautiful..."

Mu Dekai smiled and said: "Captain Meng, if you are so serious, our little Zhu may have fallen in love with you, right?"

"Old Mu, you bastard!"

Zhu Yanni was so embarrassed that she raised her fist and hit Mu Dekai...



A new "Plymouth 5F-2" sedan stopped in front of the Broadway Building.

The doorman hurried up and opened the car door respectfully.

Meng Shaoyuan got out of the car. In the passenger seat, Manager Ge was specially assigned to accompany Meng Shaoyuan. Gao Heqin, known as "Shanghai Old Carat", also got off the car with him.

"Hi boss."

The doorman bowed.

Meng Shaoyuan followed the example of a playboy and stroked his shiny temples as soon as he got out of the car: "Thank you!"

Gao Heqin immediately took out a piece of French currency: "Prince Charles Meng!"

This is also a characteristic of Greater Shanghai.

Young ladies from these wealthy families must have foreign names to look foreign.

There are many like Mr. Charles Meng and Ms. Christine Hou.

It is said that there is a joke. When Miss Christine Hou was sent home by a young man, her old nanny happened to see her at the door and said:

"Miss Hua Ni is back."

This made Miss Christine Hou Huani so embarrassed that she drove the old nanny back to the countryside the next day.

"Mr. Meng, please go away."

The doorman respectfully watched Mr. Charles Meng enter Shanghai's most advanced revolving door.

"Lao Gao, isn't this interesting?"

As soon as he entered the Broadway Building, Meng Shaoyuan immediately asked in a low voice with a smile.

Gao Heqin gave a thumbs up: "Full of style."

Not to mention, Captain Meng still looks like a playboy pretending to be a playboy.

Broadway Building has always been a place where dignitaries, celebrities, and Shanghainese ladies gather.

Meng Shao was quite handsome to begin with, and coupled with this outfit, he immediately attracted the attention of many people.

Especially some ladies from wealthy families.

Meng Shaoyuan was generous again and showed no concern when giving rewards, which aroused their curiosity even more.

Broadway Building has complete facilities, including four elevators. It is the most luxurious place in Shanghai.

While waiting for the elevator, from time to time there would be gorgeously dressed women quietly pointing and whispering to Meng Shaoyuan.

The elevator came. Before Meng Shaoyuan entered the elevator, he smiled at the two women who were still waiting for the elevator, causing them to almost scream in surprise.

Just as the elevator door was about to close, a hand blocked the door, and then a voice sounded: "Madam, please."

A woman who was only twenty-six or seven years old at most, wearing a purple evening dress, with a gorgeous and charming appearance, and a pair of charming and touching eyes walked in.

As soon as he came in, he opened his red lips and said, "I'm sorry."

The sound should be as nice as it sounds.

The next person who followed her in was a man in his fifties, wearing a gray gown.

Gao Heqin actually knew them: "Mrs. Cai, Butler Qiu."

"It's He Qin." The person known as "Mrs. Cai" nodded slightly towards him, and then her eyes fell on Meng Shaoyuan: "Who is this?"

"Oh, this is our manager Ge's nephew, Mr. Meng Xiaoyuan, who just returned from the United States."

This was agreed upon before coming here. Meng Shaoyuan's current name is "Meng Xiaoyuan", Manager Ge's nephew, and he has just returned from studying in New York, the United States.

"Welcome to Shanghai."

Mrs. Cai actually said something in English.

Meng Shaoyuan smiled and replied in pure and fluent English: "Thank you, madam. It is my greatest honor to be able to meet the beautiful you in this beautiful city."

Mrs. Cai's eyes lit up: "Are you also here to attend the All Nations Ball?"

"Let me take a look. Maybe you will be interested in participating." Meng Shaoyuan replied politely.
