14 I'm only interested in money
Didn't you see it before, but Han Huaiyi didn't tear it down, but said lightly: "This idiot is wearing clothes with stains on the collar and cuffs, and slandered my friend for stealing his whole five hundred silver dollars in public." But I analyzed from what he was wearing, and he was not qualified and capable of having such wealth as pocket money. ”
"How did I not have it, how did I not have it?" The foreign devil was actually excited.
Han Huaiyi got up: "Then tell me now, your five hundred silver dollars are divided into several amounts, how many pieces are in total, and where do you put them!" ”
The other party didn't expect him to ask such a question, and suddenly froze there.
At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded in the crowd: "This gentleman, this foreigner just ate and ran away without giving money." Also scolded our guys. ”
"Oh?" Han Huaiyi immediately said to a few other foreigners: "If you don't understand Chinese, let me translate it, this Mr. 500 silver dollars just finished eating and ran away without paying." ”
The guy suddenly blushed or something, and a few foreigners who seemed to know the situation were also instantly embarrassed.
"I warn you." Han Huaiyi immediately lit his heart, and said arrogantly: "Next time you want to trouble my people, polish your eyes first, otherwise I will teach you an eternal lesson in the way of Sicilians." ”
The other party was annoyed and ready to attack, but he was shocked when he heard this.
Several other foreigners were also stunned, and the one who spoke before hurriedly persuaded them.
Then he inquired about Han Huaiyi's origin.
Han Huaiyi said: "I studied in London and then went to New York. I just returned home last month and am preparing to invest in something. ”
"Kasp. Washingtonians. When the other party heard that he had been to Britain and the United States, and that he was good at dressing and talking, he stretched out his hand and asked with a smile: "You actually know Sicily?" ”
Han Huaiyi also smiled: "My name is Charlie." You know, there's always a place where the sun doesn't shine. I knew the Italians well when I was on Long Island. ”
Kesp frowned slightly, he looked at the bald head behind Han Huaiyi, and couldn't help but say, "Charlie, there's no need to do it for a little thing... ”
"Is he your friend?" Han Huaiyi asked.
"His name was Madangman, and he was an English gambler and a sailor. I don't know him well, but I know each other. ”
Mariner? Han Huaiyi looked at Ma Dangman, who was instigated, and suddenly raised his chin at him: "Do you want to really have five hundred silver dollars?" ”
Ma Dangman's eyes were straight, and he didn't understand what he meant.
Han Huaiyi shrugged: "You idiot." ”
This guy behaved so wickedly that Madangman didn't dare to get angry, and Kasp was dumbfounded.
But this is the case in troubled times, and the background and style shown by Han Huaiyi have been treated with caution by them.
Kesp then introduced Han Huaiyi to two of his other friends, one named Forman and the other named Jason, both of whom were his fellow villagers.
The three of them are currently working in an American foreign company in the public concession, and Han Huaiyi sent a random invitation in his heart and said, "I have booked a hotel, if you are okay, how about we go and have a drink together?" ”
Casper exchanged glances with his friends, and agreed.
When they turned to go to the hotel, the horse Adamman shouted, "Charlie, what you just said is true? ”
Han Huaiyi glanced back at him: "It seems that you are very short of money." ”
"Is that true?" Ma Dangman only cares about this sentence, this guy is already poor and crazy, otherwise he would not blackmail the Chinese today.
Kesp felt embarrassed and turned around and left.
Ma Dangman stood on the street and looked embarrassed for a while...
And Han Huaiyi's ferocity towards foreigners made the whole crowd a sensation, although many people couldn't understand foreign languages, but everyone could see that Han Huaiyi scolded the foreigner for being bloody.
They couldn't help but ask what the origin of this well-dressed young man was, and he actually packed up all the foreign adults.
Some people in the crowd recognized Shen Baoshan, a figure in the Siming Mansion.
After their publicity, the people were even more curious about who Han Huaiyi could eat Shen Baoshan.
When they began to spread Charlie's name by mouth, Han Huaiyi and the others had already drunk it.
To be honest, although Kesp and the others were shocked by his previous momentum, they were actually skeptical of his words.
However, with the in-depth conversation, after Han Huaiyi talked about the scenic spots in Britain and the United States, and even historical allusions, they completely believed Han Huaiyi's origin.
Of course, Han Huaiyi did not snub Shen Baoshan and them.
However, when Han Huaiyi communicated with foreigners, they could only watch, and Shen Baoshan was also thinking, Han Huaiyi seemed to be telling me the truth.
Then Kasp asked Han Huaiyi about his specific plans when he came back, and Han Huaiyi smiled and said to Kesp: "I'm still thinking about it, because the last golden period has been missed." ”
"The last golden age?"
"How did Mr. Hartung become the richest man in the French Concession?" Han Huaiyi asked him rhetorically.
This is a familiar thing in this era.
With the help of his wife, Hartung acquired a large number of properties when the foreigners were evacuated from the concession for fear of war, and then reaped the dividends of the times in one fell swoop.
It happened just three years ago.
When Kesp and Foreman heard this, they immediately admired: "Charlie, you are really right to describe his rise in a golden age." ”
Kesp then asked him, "So when do you think the next golden age will come?" ”
But Han Huaiyi asked him rhetorically: "Soon, but why should I tell you?" I haven't seen your friendship yet. ”
Kesp was stunned for a moment and then hurriedly raised his glass, and the two laughed and did not mention the matter for now.
Han Huaiyi did the right thing.
Kneeling and licking never comes with respect.
And his words make more sense, because why should I share the opportunity with you before I give?
Foreman, who doesn't like to talk much, suddenly commented on the side: "Charlie, you don't look like a Chinese at all." ”
"I've always been Chinese, but I'm not interested in politics at all, so I'm staying away from some gangs in Honolulu." Han Huaiyi said.
Kesp was surprised and said, "You and those who oppose the Qing court... ”
"No, I'm only interested in money." Han Huaiyi said firmly: "I believe that you have crossed the ocean to come to this city, and you also have the same thoughts as me. Come, hope we can have a day of cooperation in the future. ”
Everyone loves to hear this sentence, and several foreigners who said it into their hearts immediately applauded and echoed it.
At this moment, Zhang Dawen came to the prison of the patrol room with his hands behind his back.
He stared at Han Huaizhong, who looked down through the railing and was silent, describing Han Huaizhong with messy hair.
Then he said in a loud voice: "Boss Han doesn't seem to be able to endure hardship, he has been so haggard in just a few days?" ”
