Meng Shaoyuan was promoted to squadron leader, which is a powerful official.

In addition, Meng Shaoyuan is very popular in the two places, and he is from left and right, so there are many people who congratulate and invite guests.

After a few busy days, it was empty.

Mu Dekai quickly found him, saying that the house that Meng Shao had asked him to find had been found.

House?

Meng Shaoyuan was stunned for a moment before he reacted, isn't it, some time ago, he asked Mu Dekai to help him rent a house, so he didn't have to live in the dormitory.

The entrance of the city is very good, just in the Honggong Ancestral Hall, very close to the Caodu Lane in the second place.

A small two-story building with electric lights and running water. There's a kitchen, and even better, there's a separate bathroom with a flush toilet.

You must know that although it has been nearly 50 years since the advent of this flushing toilet, the great invention of British plumber Thomas Clapp is still very rarely used in Chinese families.

Only those big officials and big businessmen will use it.

Meng Shaoyuan deliberately took a look, and the flush toilets of his time were basically the same, using water storage tanks and floats.

"Captain Meng, I'm thinking about renting it, it's not a thing." Mu Dekai said with a smile: "You can be regarded as settling down in Nanjing, settling down, how can each of your own homes become?" So I'm going to buy it for you on my own initiative. Well, this is the house deed. ”

Buy it?

All the formalities have been completed?

Meng Shaoyuan took the contract: "How much?" ”

"That's five hundred."

So cheap?

Meng Shao originally had a little understanding of Nanjing's housing prices for a period of time.

It stands to reason that a well-equipped two-story house like this is definitely more than that.

"It was supposed to be an official in the Ministry of Finance." Mu Dekai explained: "Later, he offended Song Ziwen, not only was he dismissed, but he was also severely investigated, and now he is still locked up." His family was in a hurry to get him out, and everything that could be sold was sold, and this house was left. As soon as I heard about it, I arrived immediately, and coupled with our special status, they didn't dare to offer a high price. ”

Only then did Meng Shaoyuan understand.

Mudkai bought the building, and threats and intimidation must have been inevitable.

But to be honest, the more Meng Shaoyuan looked at this house, the more satisfied he became.

"Lao Mu, I'll give you the money in a while, and I'll give you another five hundred oceans." Now Meng Shaoyuan, who has money in the bank, has a stiff waist when he speaks:

"You helped me change all the furniture for the bed and everything, especially the bedding for new ones."

"Hey, leave it to me, but it won't take five hundred oceans."

"Buy me a radio, a gramophone, and a few more records." Meng Shaoyuan was thinking about what had appeared in this era in his heart, and suddenly had an idea:

"Do you know where we have refrigerators for sale in Nanjing?"

Well, he can be sure that there are refrigerators long ago in this era.

"Refrigerator? That's a good thing. Yes, there is. Mudekai pulled out a newspaper from his pocket: "I remember I saw the advertisement just now." ”

"I'll see." Meng Shaoyuan took the newspaper.

This is a newspaper called "Avenue Newspaper". There is not much news, and international news still accounts for the majority, but advertising occupies more than half of the page.

What "Hongjinlong high-grade domestic cigarettes" are also specially marked (produced by Nanjing Nanyang Brothers Tobacco Company) "old brand Pinhai cigarettes", "star flower water", "Baohetang Pharmacy", "Gusu Daxing Tea Food Candy", "Longevity Kidney Pill" and so on.

In a conspicuous place, there is an advertisement for a refrigerator.

Located in Tongren Street, Zhongshan Road, the Arctic Electric Store mainly promotes the self-produced "old electric refrigerator", and emphasizes "beautiful style, fine structure, economy and durability." ”

Interesting.

Meng Shaoyuan pointed to this advertisement: "Lao Mu, go here and help me buy a refrigerator." ”

Seeing that summer is coming, Nanjing is a famous furnace.

When you get home from work, open the refrigerator and open a bottle of "Friends brand" beer, the taste is not too beautiful.

At that time, all the beers sold in Nanjing were produced by Shanghai Shunhe Brewery, and there was not even a competitor.

Meng Shaoyuan's gaze fell to the end of the advertisement:

"Shanghai Sanma Road Yangtze Ballroom, American band, spring floor, air conditioning equipment, excellent five-star."

"Lao Mu, how did the advertisement of this Shanghai dance hall get to the newspapers in Nanjing?" Meng Shaoyuan was puzzled.

"What's so strange about that?" Mu Dekai explained with a smile: "Many high-ranking officials in the Nanjing Nationalist Government have real estate in Shanghai, and they will take the train to Shanghai for holidays every holiday. Therefore, these advertisements for Shanghai's real estate and entertainment industries are actually for these people. ”

Only then did Meng Shaoyuan understand: "Hey, can we get the air conditioning equipment in this dance hall?" ”

"It's not going to be easy." Mu Dekai frowned rarely: "Nanjing doesn't seem to do this, I want to invite it from Shanghai, but people from Shanghai may not be willing to come." ”

Meng Shaoyuan let out an "oh", slightly disappointed.

If you have a refrigerator, if you get an air conditioner, isn't it an air conditioner?

Don't you live too comfortably in that little day?

Mu Dekai guessed Meng Shaoyuan's thoughts: "Captain Meng, we will be sad in Nanjing as soon as we arrive in summer, but it is not impossible. Summer is coming, I'll help you buy a big ice cube, put it in the bathtub, and then get an electric fan to blow it to keep you cool. The rich family in Nanjing is so cool down in the summer. ”

It's kind of a primitive air conditioner, right?

Well, this is my home in Nanjing.

Before Meng Shao came to this era, he never thought that he would have a home in Nanjing.

From now on, I am no longer a hurried passerby.

I have truly integrated into this era.

By the way, how did you travel to this era?

That day, Meng Shaoyuan remembered that it was Sunday, he went to the suburbs to go outing, but he didn't expect that there was a sudden lightning and thunder, and it was a good day just now, but it was going to rain heavily.

Meng Shaoyuan hurriedly wanted to find a place to shelter from the rain, but he didn't expect to step on the air and fall into a hole.

And at this moment, a blinding lightning bolt pierced the hole.

Meng Shaoyuan disappeared from his own world.

Then the piercing sound of the military horn woke Meng Shaoyuan, and he found himself:

Crossed over!

Became a student at the CSKA Military Academy.

Then, I came to the Second Division of the Military Command Bureau.

If it comes, it will be safe.

After Meng Shaoyuan survived the initial panic, he calmed down and accepted this fact calmly.

If you go back, you will definitely not be able to go back, or think about how to survive in this era, and how to face the war that will break out in more than a year, and make the whole land of China full of war and devastation.

There's always something you can do for this country.

Meng Shao was originally determined: "What about the Lu Yixuan we caught?" ”

"It's still closed, what's wrong?"

"Let's go, see him go."

Meng Shaoyuan walked towards the outside of the house as he spoke, and said as he walked: "Don't say it, I always think this guy can come in handy." ”
