It is said that the cheongsam can be traced back to the deep clothing in the pre-Qin and Han dynasties. It is a fashion designed by the costume designers of the Republic of China in the first half of the [-]th century with reference to the traditional flag dress of Manchu women and the culture of the Western Mainland. It is a kind of Eastern and Western culture. Mixed figurative.
There are many speculations about the origin of the cheongsam in the Republic of China. Many scholars believe that an important reason is that women in the early Republic of China followed the example of men in wearing cheongsam in order to seek independence of thought and liberation of women's rights.However, in Zhao Shouhong's view, the flag dress may be a kind of pursuit of court dress by folk women.
Chapter 589 Re-entering the Teahouse
Because the cheongsam at this time has not yet departed from the category of post-golden flag outfits. Not only are the sleeves very long, the slits are also very low, and even the collar is tightly tied.If there is only one difference, it is that the flag dress, which was originally straight, has been changed to fit closely to the body, showing the woman's graceful curves.
Zhao Shouhong looked at the well-fitting cheongsam, which made the red chrysanthemum more enchanting and charming, and his body couldn't help but react.In order not to be noticed by the other party, he quickly found a place to sit down.
"Greetings, Master." Hongju Yingying bowed down, her voice soft and melodious.
Zhao Shouhong nodded and said: "Since Mr. Ban Zhichao sent you here as promised, I naturally can't let you go back. How about this, you do some chores here first, and sister-in-law Zhou, please arrange for her." Keep serving Zhao Shouhong's sister-in-law Zhou has now quietly succeeded Xiao Cui as the housekeeper of the inner house.Hearing that Zhao Shouhong asked her to make arrangements, Mrs. Zhou agreed and led Hongju away.
"It's really troublesome. I was so busy taking advantage of the Japanese people that I got a hot potato." Zhao Shouhong scratched his head.At this time, bursts of shouts suddenly came from the street. The loudness of the sound was obviously not caused by a few people. It was able to penetrate the courtyard of the deep house and even Zhao Shouhong, who was in the inner house, could hear it clearly.
"What happened outside?" Zhao Shouhong asked.
Zhou Pingtong replied: "That's the petition group."
"Petition group?" Zhao Shouhong frowned. He didn't expect that there would be mass demonstrations in Beihua City at this time.
Zhou Ping Tongdao: "I heard that it is a petition group of rickshaw drivers who want President Yuan to proclaim himself emperor."
"What?" Zhao Shouhong was taken aback for a moment, and then laughed: "It seems that Mr. Yuan finally couldn't bear it anymore, and started planning to push his father to the position."
"Come on, call a few people and go out with me." Zhao Shouhong waved his hands and said, he put his hands behind his back and walked out of the gate, Zhou Pingtong and several other guards followed closely.At this time, the street was very lively, and a large group of people walked towards the presidential palace in a chaotic manner. The people in front waved small flags and shouted various slogans in support of Yuan Kai's proclaiming emperor.Most of the people behind were dull, although most of them shouted, but it was difficult to hear what they said.
"The momentum is really not small." Zhao Shouhong felt bored after watching for a while, and immediately beckoned to the guard: "Come with me to the teahouse and sit for a while." We have come to the door of Yutai Teahouse.
"Hey, Dudu Zhao is here, please sit down." Wang Lifa greeted Zhao Shouhong with a smile when he saw Zhao Shouhong enter the door.Since Qin Zhongyi became the executive officer of Guangming Group, most of his property in Beihua City has been sold.As the place where he met Zhao Shouhong for the first time, Qin Zhongyi generously gave this place to Wang Lifa, so although the shopkeeper Wang had no relationship with his employer, he regarded him as a benefactor and respected Qin Zhongyi and Zhao Shouhong even more.
"The shopkeeper Wang's business is good. It seems that your place is still so prosperous." Zhao Shouhong also comes here often these days and is very familiar with the teahouse.According to the usual rules, the guards handed over tea bags, and Zhao Shouhong only drank the tea he brought.
"Isn't this thanks to you and Second Master Qin? You have recently lived in Beihua City and often take care of my small place. Second Master Qin is doing big business in Guanghai City, but he hasn't been here for a long time." Wang Lifa Bringing the brewed tea over, he said: "Captain Zhao, you are a very kind person. You asked Qin Erye to give me this shop for free. No wonder you have a prosperous official career and a lot of money."
"Your clever mouth hasn't changed at all." Zhao Shouhong smiled and shook his head.
Wang Lifa smiled all over his face: "You're always flattering me. Can I show off my small thoughts in front of you? I just hope that you will come a few more times, and let us have some good luck."
Zhao Shouhong nodded, and when he saw that he was no longer talking, Wang Li quickly retreated: "You always drink tea slowly, and Ai Wowo and Pea Yellow will be brought over immediately." Then he bowed and left.
Zhao Shouhong asked the guards to find a place to sit down and drink tea nearby, while he sat in the corner, drinking tea seemingly casually, but actually listening to the chats of other tea drinkers.
"Look at the situation, today the rickshaw workers petitioned again." A tea drinker whispered: "A few days ago, the businessman petition group, the literati petition group, the student petition group, and even more strangely, the prostitute petition group. The people of Beihua City are all concerned about politics."
Another tea guest smiled and said, "Don't worry about it. Can't you see what's tricky here? Someone must be manipulating it."
"Don't talk about state affairs, both of you, don't talk about state affairs." At this moment, Wang Lifa leaned over and said, waving his hands, pointing to the note on the wall that says "Don't talk about state affairs".The two had no choice but to keep their mouths shut when they heard the dissuasion. In fact, what Wang Lifa was most afraid of was Zhao Shouhong's concern about this matter. After all, he was an official and powerful.
Seeing that the two of them kept silent because of Wang Lifa's reminder, Zhao Shouhong didn't care.People who are free to drink tea like to chat, and if these two people don't talk about it, someone will always talk about it.Soon he heard another voice: "How messed up is the world now? After several years of wars and droughts, the countryside is almost eating people. Look at the fact that there are still people in this city Setting up a petition group to ask the president to become the emperor is really evil."
"Who can't see that people are just eating their own food. Now those fleeing famine are going to the south and west. I heard that Guanghai City and Plateau Province are recruiting refugees, and they will have enough to eat there." Tea guest A said.
Tea guest B, who was the first to speak out, waved his hand: "Who knows if those rumors are true or not? Is there really a place where the poor can get enough to eat? If so, I'll go too."
"Who knows, I'll starve to death anyway, so I might as well try my luck." Tea guest A sighed and said, "I heard that most of the people in the countryside have left now, and they're all fleeing. I have a distant relative who also went. He wrote back a few days ago, saying that he has settled down in Plateau Province. He said that there is plenty of work there, and now the family is planting trees in Yulin."
"You can also eat by planting trees? Don't make it up." The second tea guest shook his head in disbelief.
"Actually, I don't believe it, but my relative is honest and never tells lies. He said that the government hired farmers to plant trees on the high slopes of the loess and paid them a lot of wages. He also said that it is important to prevent soil erosion. It is a big event. Their whole family, men, women and children, planted trees together. It is said that planting a tree gives five silver coins, and the government provides the tree species. In the future, there will be a monthly income of one copper coin for maintaining the tree. Now their family has planted more than 1000 trees Trees are enough to eat and wear.” Tea guest A explained.
5 Chapter Ninety
Tea guest B shook his head: "Anyway, I don't believe it. The government also pays for planting trees. Could it be that they have too much money to spend?"
"Who knows, but it is said that it is the territory of the Dashu military government. There are as many refugees as there are. People there get medical treatment for free, and children go to school for free. "Tea guest A said.
"That's a good relationship. If I can't hang out anymore, I'll go and have a look." Tea guest B shook his head.
Zhao Shouhong secretly praised Deng Zhicheng for his ability to handle affairs. Unexpectedly, his propaganda work was so good that even the refugees near Beihua City were attracted.It seems that the population of the territory of the Dashu military government is increasing, and the plan to deal with the Raksha people must be accelerated, otherwise there will be no place to house refugees in the future.
Calculating how many people could be housed in the land in his hands, and how much food was missing, Zhao Shouhong gradually became fascinated. "My mother, you scared me to death." This familiar voice brought Zhao Shouhong back to his thoughts, and he turned his head to find that it was Liu Mazi who had fought with him last time.
Wang Lifa went up to meet him and said, "It's better if you're dead, and you're just buying and selling a few more girls when you're alive."
"Some people are selling and others are buying. I'm just helping out. Can you blame me?" Liu Mazi shook his head and said, "I'm talking about shopkeeper Wang. Let's have a cup of tea."
"No, if you have time, you'd better go to the streets." Wang Lifa was about to drive people away.
Liu Mazi and Wang Lifa were arguing, but when they turned around, they saw Zhao Shouhong.Seeing Zhao Shouhong drinking tea leisurely in the corner, he immediately shook off Wang Lifa and bowed to meet him: "Excuse me, you are General Zhao, right? Do you still know me?"
"Of course I recognize Liu Mazi, the trafficker." Zhao Shouhong smiled slightly.
"Go away quickly, don't disturb Governor Zhao." Seeing Liu Mazi going to provoke Zhao Shouhong, Wang Lifa hurried up to stop him.
"Forget it, let him stay here. Shopkeeper Wang brings him a bowl of tea. I have something to ask him." Zhao Shouhong waved his hand to stop him, but Wang Lifa had no choice but to turn his head and leave.
Just now when Zhao Shouhong called him Liu Mazi who trafficked people, Liu Mazi's heart sank and he wanted to slip away, but he didn't dare.Now Mazi Liu was neither sitting nor standing, and stood there with an embarrassed face, not even knowing where to put his hands.
Looking at Zhao Shouhong, who was eating snacks by himself, Liu Mazi smiled and said, "I don't know which girl Mr. Zhao is interested in. As long as you say a word, I will definitely get it for you within three days." Come."
"You think I'm also doing that outrageous thing?" Zhao Shouhong looked at Liu Mazi coldly, and he only felt a chill from his tailbone to the top of his head, and his whole heart felt cool.
Hearing the chill in Zhao Shouhong's words, Liu Mazi felt a little weak in his legs.He wanted to kneel down but didn't dare, for fear that the other party would say something that would pull him out and behead him.A smile suddenly appeared on Zhao Shouhong's calm face: "If you want to survive, why don't you follow me in the future?"
"Following you?" Liu Mazi's eyes lit up, he felt that he was still in hell for a second, but now he is in heaven.Who is this in front of him? That is a well-known anti-Japanese hero throughout the country. Even President Yuan should be afraid of him.In the future, if you follow such a character, you will definitely return home with glory in the future.
"I don't know what you want me to do?" Liu Mazi asked.
Zhao Shouhong looked around and said, "You go to my house and wait in a while, and I will tell you, and I promise you won't suffer any disadvantages." Hearing these words, Liu Mazi felt as if he had been beaten with chicken blood.He stopped drinking tea, bowed several times to Zhao Shouhong, turned around and left.
Wang Lifa brought the tea, but found that Mazi Liu had left.Although he hated Liu Mazi's behavior very much, after all, everyone was hanging out on the street, so he couldn't help but say something nice to Liu Mazi: "Captain Zhao, in fact, it's difficult for everyone to hang out on the street. Although what Liu Mazi did was detrimental to Yin and virtue, it was also forced by food and clothing."
"It's okay, I won't embarrass him." Zhao Shouhong said: "On the contrary, I plan to reuse him. Anyone is useful, it depends on where it is used."
"Ah?" Wang Li was stunned on the spot, he didn't understand how a human trafficker could be reused.
After Zhao Shouhong finished drinking tea, just entered the door, Mrs. Zhou's daughter Liu Xiaolan walked over and said, "Master, there is a foreigner asking to see him. He has been waiting in the living room for a long time."
"Oh?" Zhao Shouhong was curious about any foreigners coming to him, so he walked into the living room quickly.After entering the living room, he realized that the foreigner was an acquaintance. It turned out to be the Teutonic Minister Halhausen who he had contacted many times.
"Your Excellency Governor Zhao, I would like to extend my greetings to you on behalf of His Majesty William and the Crown Prince." Unexpectedly, Halhausen became so polite as soon as we met.
Usually the two talk more casually, but the other party is so formal today, which means that there must be business to discuss.Zhao Shouhong nodded and said: "Your Excellency, please sit down. If you have anything to say, just talk about it."
Halhausen nodded and sat down: "Yesterday, I received a telegram from Crown Prince William of my country. He said that you once gave him a promise to help our country with supplies."
"What? Is the Teutonic Kingdom unable to withstand it now?" Zhao Shouhong was a little surprised. The war has only started for less than a year. Could it be that the Teutonic Kingdom is unsustainable.
