Super Smuggling System
Page 396
"Sir, the carriage has been found."
When Li Mu stood where he was, for the people of the Central Plains on this plane, because of the Qing Dynasty, he lost the pride that the Central Plains people should have.
Abel and a cyborg found the carriage and walked over with it.
The reason for letting a cyborg follow Abel is because this guy can't speak Chinese, but only English, and the cyborg doesn't have any language barriers.
Seeing the carriage in front of him, Li Mu shook his head and said, "Let's go."
After speaking, he got into the carriage.
Abel and the two cyborgs also quickly got into the carriage.
"My lord, where are we going?" The driver of the carriage asked when he saw Li Mu getting into the carriage and Abel put his luggage away.
The purpose of coming to Daqing this time is to be in the capital, so Li Mu said: "Master, let's go to the capital."
"The capital, sir, this is not close." The master driving the carriage replied.
Hearing that the master driving the carriage was worried about the money, Li Mu smiled and said, "Don't worry, master, your money is absolutely indispensable."
"That's all right, everyone sit down, let's go now." The driver of the carriage smiled, picked up the whip for driving the horse, and slapped it on the horse.
Two days later.
The master who drove the carriage sent the four of them to the capital.
Similarly, along the way, Li Mu also saw the real life of the people in the late Qing Dynasty, a poor and down-and-out folk, and the status quo of the whole country that was rotten to the bone.
"Sir, the silver dollars have been exchanged." Abel took some of the exchanged silver dollars and put them in Li Mu's hands.
Just now, because there were no silver dollars to pay the driver, Li Mu had no choice but to ask Abel to take a cyborg to a foreign firm in the capital to exchange some.
After all, he had just arrived in the Qing Dynasty from the United States, so where would he have silver dollars from the Qing Dynasty on his body.
He also only had some dollar vouchers exchanged for fifty catties of gold bars for convenience when he was in the United States, which was also the national currency of the United States during this period.
Li Mu took the silver dollar in Abel's hand, and said to the coach driver who had been afraid to speak, "Master, how much is your car?"
"Master, two silver dollars will be enough." The driver nodded and stretched out his fingers.
"Then." Li Mu glanced at the four silver dollars in his hand, gave them all to the driver, and said, "I'll give you all the four silver dollars, and if you have more, you will be rewarded by the Lord."
"Master, this is too much." The honest driver, holding the four silver dollars in his hand, couldn't believe it.
One moment, he was still worried about whether he could get the fare, but the next moment, he got double the fare. This really made him, an honest old man, not know what to say.
You know, it took him half a month without food or drink to save these four silver dollars.
Looking at some of the drivers who were hunched over and covered in a lot of patches, Li Mu said: "I said it was a reward for you, and it was a reward for you. It has been two days since I came out. Listen to you, there is a girl at home. Instead of staying Holding these four silver dollars here, why not hurry home and see your daughter."
Then, ignoring the driver who was standing there, he turned around and took Abel and the two cyborgs into the city.
For him, he may not be able to save the [-] million fellows of the third smuggling plane, but he doesn't mind doing a little bit for those who are destined.
Just like the driver who drove the car, I heard him tell a lot of life stories along the way. If there is sadness, there will naturally be warmth. The most warm one is the filial and obedient daughter at home.
The master driver saw Li Mu leaving, moved, knelt down on the ground, thanked him, and then drove the carriage back to Tianjin Wei by the same route with four silver dollars in his pocket.
Seeing the four of Li Mu standing at the door, the waiter's waiter was slightly taken aback, and asked randomly, "Master, who are you? The private room on the second floor, or the lobby."
While talking, he looked at Li Mu from time to time, and Abel and the two white people behind him. For him, this restaurant rarely caters to foreigners.
Besides, foreigners don't come here either, they usually go to restaurants opened by foreigners in the capital.
Meeting the four of them today, Li Mu, really made the waiter at a loss, but fortunately, the words on his lips did not stop.
"The private room on the second floor, remember, I want a private room by the window." Li Mu pointed in the direction and said.
The second waiter smiled and said, "Okay, master, the private room on the second floor, next to the window, you go with the little one."
Following the waiter in the running hall, he went up to the second floor and entered the private room. As for the curious diners in the lobby, Li Mu didn't take a look.
"Master, what do you guys want to eat?" Seeing that Li Mu was the master of the four, the waiter waiter asked skillfully, although he was puzzled.
Li Mu asked Abel to take out a silver dollar, and said, "Come here some special dishes from your restaurant, and bring me a jug of wine. I'll replenish you after a while."
"Come on, sir, that's too much." Xiaoer said, taking the silver dollar handed over by Abel.
"You will be rewarded if you have more." Li Mu waved his hand and said, "Go down."
Xiaoer was overjoyed, bowed and said, "Thank you, Lord, for the reward."
Abel saw Li Mu looking out of the window after seeing the waiter's waiter driving away, and asked curiously, "What are you looking at, sir?"
"Look at the Old Summer Palace."
As far as Li Mu could see, it was the largest and most luxurious artificial garden in the world, the Old Summer Palace, a dreamlike place
Chapter 364 A Qing Emperor Xianfeng
Build a dream out of marble, white marble, bronze and porcelain.
Use cedar to make the roof frame, cover it with satin, and stud it with precious stones.
A temple is built here, a harem is built there, statues of gods are placed, decorated with glass, gold, and powder.
Please imagine a fairyland in human fantasy, its appearance is a temple, a palace, that is this famous garden.
Victor Hugo
This is 1860. After the British and French allied forces launched the second Opium War against the Qing Dynasty under the pretext of burning down the fantastic Old Summer Palace, the famous French writer Hugo learned that this world-famous cultural heritage was burned by a group of barbarians. According to the news, he wrote a paragraph describing the Yuanmingyuan.
Li Mu has also seen the restoration map of the Old Summer Palace and documentaries countless times through the computer in the original plane. Every time he sees these restoration map materials about the Old Summer Palace, he is deeply fascinated by the scenery of the Old Summer Palace.
This is also the reason why he didn't stay in the United States for too long when he learned that the third smuggling plane was in 1858, but went to the Qing Dynasty quickly.
That's right, the purpose of Li Mu's coming back to the Qing Dynasty by boat from the United States was precisely for the Old Summer Palace.
He didn't intend to save the entire Qing Empire, [-] million people, it's not that he is incapable of saving this decaying empire.
It's because the Qing Dynasty is no different from the Ming Empire on the Ming plane. One is the imperial court established by the Jurchens, and the other is the last empire of the Han people.
As a typical person with a national complex, Li Mu will naturally do his best to save the Ming Dynasty, which is about to collapse, and will not retain the Qing Dynasty, which is the third smuggling plane.
What's more, saving Daming was also mixed with his love for Zhang Yan.
As for the Qing Dynasty, he had no reason, nor was he in the mood, to save such a court that had been selling out its land from the very beginning.
