Huo Yuanjia changed his decision again, and Bai Gui was not surprised.
The Huo family's Mizong Fist cannot be passed on to ordinary people at will, but it just cannot be passed on to ordinary people at will...
With his attitude of being willing to support Huo Ting'en, Huo Yuanjia would inevitably be unjustified if he was too self-conscious.
In order to maintain this interest, connections..., Jingwu Sect needs to give up some things.
Of course, this is also the reward Bai Gui gets for pretending to be a gentleman.
Just like Uncle Liu in the Three Kingdoms, Lu Bu attacked Xiapi and Liu Bei was defeated in Guangling. However, Mi Zhu chose to spend all his wealth to befriend Liu Bei and marry his sister Mrs. Mi to Liu Bei, not only because Liu Bei had a promising future.
, even if he failed miserably, he could still make a comeback, and the reason why Liu Bei has good moral character and is a gentleman...
"Master Huo, don't worry, as long as I am around, Jingwu Sect will not collapse!"
Bai Gui cupped his hands.
This is the guarantee he gave Huo Yuanjia.
Huo Yuanjia nodded with satisfaction and did not say much in this regard.
If you are a gentleman, with this promise, there is no need to say more. If you are a hypocritical villain, no matter how much you say, it will be nonsense.
After meal.
It's dusk.
However, Shanghai is the most developed and prosperous city in the Far East, and it is not called Shiliyangchang for nothing.
It's more lively at night than during the day.
Huo Ting'en suggested that he would take the opportunity to take Bai Gui for a stroll.
Mitsuko Yamada originally planned to go as well.
But Bai Gui thought about it and let Mitsuko Yamada stay in the wing of Jingwu Sect.
"You have just recovered from illness and have been tired from traveling and traveling. You should have a good rest this day and don't run around..."
"Wait until tomorrow, and I will take you out alone."
he advised.
After hearing this, Mitsuko Yamada also felt that it was reasonable and did not force it.
…
Out of Jingwumen.
At the door, Shunzi had eaten and drank enough and was sitting on the shaft of a high-end carriage waiting. When he saw Bai Gui coming out, he said hello.
"Master Bai, where do you plan to go?"
He nodded and bowed.
A full-time coachman like him is basically available 24 hours a day. Even at night, no matter how sleepy he is, he has to wake up to drive the coachman.
However, his salary is quite high, twelve silver dollars per month.
It makes far more money than some small employees.
enjoying the moment!
Sometimes it pleases the eyes, and Zhang's board of directors will reward him with some money.
You eat and drink in the kitchen of the house, and the salary and rewards are pure profit. The job of driving a carriage is said to have a certain skill level, but it is not that difficult to find. Such a high salary is a mercy.
Bai Gui nodded and said to Huo Ting'en:
"Ting En, come on, let's get in the car together. Wherever you say we want to go, Shunzi will take us there."
With that said, he turned around again and said to Shunzi: "This is the young master of Jingwu Sect, the son of Old Hero Huo. Please remember this."
The profession of driver cannot be underestimated.
To be Director Zhang's full-time carriage driver, he must be a close confidant.
Bai Gui said this not only to Shunzi, but also to Director Zhang and his connections behind the scenes...
"Look at what you said, Mr. Bai, Huo Yingxiong doesn't know anyone in Shanghai."
Shunzi responded quickly with a smile.
Bai Gui and Huo Ting'en got on the carriage.
The carriage galloped along.
"This carriage... is really comfortable and not bumpy at all."
Huo Ting'en said with emotion.
Although this high-end carriage does not have many interiors and other parts, once you get on it, you will feel that it is very different from the previous carriages.
"This is a Western shock-absorbing device that mostly uses springs."
Bai Gui explained.
Nowadays, the industrial production of the Qing Dynasty is very backward, and decent springs cannot be produced at all. Although springs may seem like a small object, without strong enough industrial strength, they cannot be produced at all.
Director Zhang’s carriage uses springs and other shock-absorbing devices.
Therefore, it is not bumpy when you sit up.
Huo Ting'en took Bai Gui to visit some of Shanghai's famous scenic spots, and waited until evening.
Get off the carriage.
Bai Gui took a quick look and saw a Chinese-style courtyard building in front of him, which was of antique style.
Red lanterns are hung high and colorful flags are flying.
You can hear girls Wu Nong’s soft-spoken laughter everywhere.
Most of the pedestrians coming and going at the door were gentry.
"This is Zui Xing Tower..."
"Brother Bai is here for the first time tonight, and I will be the host."
Huo Ting'en took off his Western hat and pointed at the gatehouse.
He was a little uneasy when facing Bai Gui at first. Although they were the same age, in front of Huo Yuanjia and Nong Jinsun, Bai Gui and they could sit down and talk, and he was just the junior at the table...
But as the two of them were alone, Bai Gui was so charming that the awkwardness of their first encounter immediately dissipated, and the two quickly became one with each other.
The two brothers are not close to each other, but they are still friends.
"Zuixinglou is... the women's branch, right?"
When Bai Gui saw the scene in front of him, he already had some guesses in his mind.
It's just that he has never been to such a venue.
Unexpectedly, he asked Huo Ting'en to take him around, and Huo Ting'en finally brought him to Zuixing Tower.
The name Zuixinglou does not sound very eye-catching at first glance. It seems to be the name of a restaurant, but the more upscale the place, the less vulgar it is. What a beautiful name for the Qinhuai River.
"Brother Bai, don't be embarrassed. My sister-in-law is not around now. When I get back, I will definitely hide it..."
Huo Ting'en smiled and said.
This was his little secret. He kept a daughter-in-law in Zui Xing Tower and did not tell his father. People who practice martial arts must strengthen their bodies every day. He is in the prime of life, how can he not have a woman to quench his anger...
Now that I can bring Bai Gui here, I can be honest with him.
Although he didn't know the rumors about the triathlon in life, he knew that visiting the women's branch together was the only way to promote friendship.
Besides, Bai Gui deliberately pushed away Yamada Mitsuko, didn’t he have that intention?
The most prosperous place in the city is the red light district.
Various dance parties, gambling stalls, etc.
He wouldn't dare to bet on women, but he still has some courage!
"Okay...then I'd rather be respectful than obey."
Bai Gui also felt itchy. When he was in Qin Province, he had to maintain the image of a good student, so although there was a brothel in Pingkangfang, he never dared to go. After arriving in Japan, he had been to the tea house, but that
She's a geisha, not an arcade girl...
Go once and see the world!
Mr. Turtle came up to greet him, "Hey! Master Huo, you are here again. Xiaohong has been waiting for you for a few days, but she is looking forward to your coming again day and night, fearing that you will become that unlucky lover..."
"Don't talk nonsense, I am here to entertain distinguished guests."
Huo Ting'en's face flushed slightly, he glared at Mr. Turtle and said, "This is Master Bai, my distinguished guest."
He did not reveal Bai Gui's identity.
Want face!
This is not a very honorable thing after all.
"It's Master Bai, please come in..." Mr. Turtle also caught a glimpse of the high-end carriage parked in front of the door. This carriage was not suitable for Huo Ting'en to sit in. The person coming must be a big shot, and he also knows the rules.
