[Comprehensive Wear] You will get used to wearing it
Chapter 5 Pride and Prejudice
Five days later, Laurent brought James Watt to visit Yang Yi. Yang Yi stared at Watt's face vigorously and compared it with the picture of Watt he saw in the textbook in his memory. Finally, he felt that it was indeed very similar, and then After happily chatting with Watt for a long time, when he knew that Watt needed a current steam engine for research, he readily gave Laurent five thousand pounds.
"I believe that Mr. Watt will transform a new type of steam engine soon, but I have a request, that is, after the steam engine is transformed, the steam engine you develop within a year can only be produced by me and Mr. Laurent. Of course, you can still apply for a patent after the steam engine is completed." Yang Yi touched his finger and said, the improved steam engine will definitely cause a sensation, and there will definitely be many businessmen with vision to invest in the factory. In production, taking the lead in business will definitely bring huge wealth. Yang Yi, who was also proficient in some business knowledge in his previous life, feels that if he seizes this opportunity, he will definitely make a fortune.
Watt thought about it for a while. He wanted to improve the steam engine at first because his hobby was researching it. He didn't care when all the research was done, so he said with a smile: "Of course, I am very grateful to Mr. Wickham for his generosity. funding."
Laurent quickly thought of Yang Yi's purpose of not allowing the new steam engine to be put into mass production immediately. Although he couldn't prove his business vision to everyone right away, Laurent was very happy to be able to make more money , and therefore agreed to this request.
The three of them were very happy to meet this time. Yang Yi left the two of them to eat dinner and then went out on the street alone. In London at night, there are really no places for gentlemen to spend their time except dances and theaters, so Yang Yi Finally, following the voices of people, he walked to the entrance of a theater. Because it was still early, the entrance of the theater was full of people. Yang Yi looked at the well-dressed gentlemen and ladies who went in, looked at his suits, and shook his head. Shaking his head, he walked to the corner of the street.
Yang Yi saw a sentence when he read Sanmao Wanderings, saying that Great Shanghai is a paradise for the rich and a hell for the poor. Now Yang Yi saw a few people in rags lying on a dark street corner People finally really understand the meaning of this sentence.Less than 50 meters away, rich people wear gold and silver and laugh and have fun, while poor people are hungry and naked.
"Hey, sir, why are you here? Are you in any trouble?" A patrolling policeman came over and looked at a few poor people lying in the corner with unfriendly eyes. The nice gentleman stood here with a sad look on his face, he must have encountered something bad.
"Oh, hello, I just feel a little dizzy." Yang Yi looked at the fat policeman in front of him, shook his head and said, he would not foolishly talk about his sentimentality, it would only be laughed at.
"Really, sir, do you want me to take you back? Isn't this a place to stay?" the policeman inserted the stick in his hand and said.
"Oh, no, I just drank some wine just now, and I'll be fine soon." Yang Yi shook his head again, if the policeman really sent him back, the thank you fee would not be less, but he didn't want to put Give this kind of bully your own money.
"Okay then, I'll be patrolling around here, and if something happens, you can call loudly." The policeman nodded and said, then turned and left.
Yang Yi glanced at the brightly lit entrance of the theater in front of him, lost all mood, mocked himself for his sentimentality, Yang Yi lowered his head and planned to leave.
A small black hand stretched out from one side, grabbed the corner of Yang Yi's coat, and said in a small voice with endless pleading: "Good sir, please give me a penny, let me buy a piece of bread To my mother, she's sick."
Yang Yi turned his head and saw a child who was about as high as his knees. This child was dressed in ragged clothes and was completely dirty. Only two big watery eyes were exposed on his dark face. , which is full of prayers.
"Good sir, please be kind, my mother is sick, she has been lying in bed for three days, but I can't get food, please give me a penny so I can buy my mother a loaf of bread !" The child gently tugged at Yang Yi's clothes, begging in a crying voice.
Yang Yi's heart softened when he saw the child's eyes. He actually likes children very much, but he knows that he will not have children because he is gay.Many times Yang Yi thought that he would adopt a child when he was old, and then bring him up, and finally give him his inheritance. He also went to the orphanage several times, but raising a child is not so easy, if If there is no fate, then it cannot be a family.
"What's your name?" Yang Yi bent down to look at the child and asked.
"My name is Eric." The child blinked and said with some doubts. He didn't expect this kind-looking gentleman to talk to him in such a pleasant manner. We must know that rich gentlemen usually only Let their servants push him away, never giving a second glance.
"How old are you, Eric?"
"Three and a half years old." Eric stretched out his three fingers and said.
"And what about your father?"
"No dad," Eric said, shaking his head.
"Then where is your mother now?" Yang Yi looked at Eric's thin body and asked. The child who was only three and a half years old knew how to ask for food for his sick mother. He was really a precocious child.
"It's at the garbage dump at the back." Eric pointed to the alley in front, "It's in that alley."
"Are there other people there?"
"No, it's just me and my mother. It's too dirty, and other people don't want to sleep there."
Yang Yi looked at the alley, it was so dark that he couldn't see anything there, although he really wanted to go there now, but who knew what was there, whether it was really only Eric's mother, so Yang Yi He looked at Eric and said, "Eric, can you wait for me here, I'll get someone to take your mother to the doctor."
Eric's eyes widened immediately, full of surprise and joy, "Really sir, really, you will take my mother to see a doctor?"
"Really, I'll take your mother to the doctor, but you'll have to wait here a while, because I've got to get some help."
"Okay, sir, go quickly, I'll stay here." Eric sat down in the corner and raised his head and said to Yang Yi.
Yang Yi smiled, he liked this child when he saw it, he didn't have time to adopt one in his previous life, maybe he can adopt this one in this life, as for the mother of this child, if she is cured, she can let her stay by her side to be a child if she is willing. The maid or give her a sum of money to leave, if not cured, then bury her and take Eric with her.
Yang Yi quickly ran back to the hotel, and then asked William to bring a few servants from the hotel to the alley. After about half an hour, Eric was still squatting there, seeing Yang Yi really Come and jump up happily.
"Sir, you are really here!"
"Okay, now take us to your mother, I've sent someone to call a doctor." Yang Yi said while touching Eric's cerebellum.
Yang Yi and the others found Eric's mother in the garbage dump. This woman looked very bad, with a high fever and many ulcers on her body.Yang Yi asked someone to bring her back to the hotel, and then asked the maids to help her take a bath and change clothes, and then asked the doctor waiting there to look at her.
"Sir, this lady's condition is very bad. She has syphilis. The ulcers on her body have been seriously infected. Now she has a high fever. I have no way to treat her. Even if her high fever is cured, she will not survive. It's been a few days." The doctor said after carefully checking Eric's mother.
Although Yang Yi felt sad for Eric about to lose his mother, he was also relieved. The woman with syphilis is probably a prostitute. If she is really cured, it should be a big trouble. Rick must be heartbroken.
"Sir, you just have to do your best." Yang Yi looked at the woman lying on the bed and said, although this woman was already skinny and her skin had become rough, but she could still see it from her face. This woman should have been very beautiful in the past, but sometimes beauty often brings disasters, especially when you are unable to protect yourself.
Eric was also taken down by the maid to wash it well, and put on beautiful little clothes. When Yang Yi went out, he was eating creamy mushroom soup. It is estimated that he has never eaten better than this in his life. something.
"Sir, Eric looks really good-looking." William said while sitting opposite Eric and watching Eric who kept stuffing things into his mouth.
Yang Yi took a closer look, he was indeed a very cute child, but he was too thin, without any baby fat that a child should have, and his complexion looked very withered and yellow due to malnutrition.But the kid was really good looking.
"Sir, how is my mother?" Eric asked when he saw Yang Yi immediately swallowed his mouth.
"Your mother is asleep. Maybe she will wake up tomorrow. I'll ask the doctor to see you after you finish eating."
"I'm not sick, sir, and I needn't look."
"You're too thin, it's better to take a look." Yang Yi sat next to William, looked at Eric and said with a smile, this child will be his son in the future, the more he looks the cuter he is.
"Okay then, sir, where do I sleep tonight?"
"How about you sleeping with William?"
"Okay." Eric nodded. In his opinion, sleeping anywhere is better than sleeping in a garbage dump.
Probably because she was well taken care of, Eric's mother's fever subsided a little the next day, and when she woke up, she couldn't believe that she was sleeping on a comfortable bed, "Eric, Eric gram?"
"Mom, are you awake?" Eric ran in with a piece of bread in his hand, because he hadn't eaten enough before, so Yang Yi didn't let him eat too much at one time, so he waited every morning Eat something in half an hour.
"Eric, where are we?" Sophia raised her hand and touched Eric's face and asked, how good-looking her own Eric is, he looks like a little gentleman in such a beautiful little dress, look Really like his father.
"Mom thought that the kind gentleman saved us, and even found a doctor for mom." Eric lifted the bread in his hand to Sophia's mouth, motioning her to eat some.
"Mother Eric won't eat, can you bring that gentleman here? Mom wants to thank him." Sophia looked at Eric's pure eyes, but was very worried in her heart, who would be so kind to save a dying man? whore and her child.
"Okay, I'll go there now." Eric said and ran out, shouting as he ran, "Sir, my mother is awake, she wants to see you."
Yang Yi followed Eric into the room, while he was thinking about how to tell this woman that he wanted to adopt Eric, but when he stepped into the room, he saw the sudden burst of joy and surprise in the woman's eyes. Time froze.
"George, George, I knew you would come to us, Eric, call Dad, Eric, this is your dad." Sophia said with a smile while crying.
Yang Yi was really stunned now, what?Dad, please let him be a young chicken, how can a child of three and a half years old come here!
"George, I thought I'd never see you again. It's great. It's great that you came to us. I'm afraid that Eric won't be able to survive if I die." Sophia seemed to feel better suddenly, and she sat down Get up, put your arms around Eric and said.
Only then did Yang Yi realize that he was George Wickham now, but he hadn't seen this woman in his memory! "You, Eric, go out first, I have something to say to your mother."
Eric didn't know what happened, but he heard his mother asked him to call this husband who saved them yesterday Dad, Eric looked at Yang Yi in surprise, speechless, he heard Yang Yi asked him to go out and run immediately gone.
"I believe that Mr. Watt will transform a new type of steam engine soon, but I have a request, that is, after the steam engine is transformed, the steam engine you develop within a year can only be produced by me and Mr. Laurent.
