The carriage crossed several more intersections and came to a stop on the side of the road at a turn. Isabel asked Zhu Jishi to get out of the car. After getting out of the carriage, Zhu Jishi found that the entire street was lined with shops, all of which were very exquisitely decorated. Zhu Jishi turned his head to look at Isabel: "Isabel, here is ......"
"This is Dover Street, and my sister has a little shop here." Isabel pointed to a small clothing store with a sign that read "Duran Clothing Store", "Duran is her late ex-husband's surname, and the third floor of the shop is temporarily empty, you can live there first, you don't need to pay rent." But if you want to get a buddy with my sister and let her help with some of the housework, give her half to a pound a month. β
Zhu Jishi was completely blind to London in 1842, he saw that the surrounding environment was very good, the transportation seemed to be convenient, and he did not have to pay rent, so he said to the countess gratefully: "Thank you so much, Isabel, I am very satisfied with this place." β
The countess smiled: "Jason, if you like it, it's no problem to stay as long as you want." β
"Isabel, my dear, have brought you in a gust of wind." A charming voice rang out, and the door of Deneuve's clothing store was suddenly pushed open, and out of it came a woman with a white turban, a black skirt and a large white bib, about thirty years old, with a bewitching melon seed face like the countess, a very white complexion, and wavy blonde hair, a plump figure than the countess, and a high and bulging breasts, very-like. If she is ten years younger, it is estimated that there will be a man duel for her.
"Roman," the countess kissed the on the cheek, and then introduced to Zhu Jishi, "this is my sister Madame Duranβthis is Jason. Zhu (who had already told the countess of his 'odd' Tatar surname at breakfast) was a very distinguished surgeon who had just arrived from Germany. β
"It's an honor to meet you, Zhu ...... Mr. The blinked and looked at Zhu Jishi curiously, "Are you...... Oriental? β
"He is a Tatar." The countess smiled and said to the, "Clean up the third floor, Jason will stay here for a while." β
The looked at Zhu Jishi with strange eyes again, and then called out to Henry in her small shop. Rabi Gunli, a young man about 20 years old who looked quiet, let him take Zhu Jishi up to the third floor.
The third floor of the shop is not empty, but a warehouse for fabrics, and even the stairs and walkways are stacked with tweed and silk fabrics of various colors. The young man opened the door of a house on Dover Street, and there were some fabrics piled up in it, but not much, and the two of them worked together to clear the house quickly. Then the young man brought a camp bed from nowhere and set it up in the hut. In addition, there is a wooden table, two chairs, a closet, and nothing else. Fortunately, Zhu Jishi doesn't have any luggage, so such a small house is just right to settle down. This one's name is Henry. The lad from Rabi Gunley seemed to have just come from France and didn't speak English or German, while Zhu Jishi didn't know French, so the two only used simple gestures to communicate.
And while Zhu Jishi and Henry were busy working upstairs, on the first floor of the shop, the countess was also chatting with her sister in French.
"Is there anything special about this Tatar?" Madame Durand handed the countess a cup of freshly brewed haode coffee.
"Perhaps," the countess gently turned the small coffee cup in her hand, and the corners of her mouth hooked, revealing a slight smile, "maybe it will be a lucrative investment." β
"How's that Will?"
The countess's eyebrows frowned slightly, and her face was full of disgust, "Will is finished, this kid actually went to a duel with Winston, and I didn't listen to him no matter how I persuaded him!" As a result, a musket was used to make a hole in Robert's stomach. β
"Oh my God, he killed Mr. Churchill?" Mrs. Duran exclaimed.
"The fat man didn't die, he was saved by the Tatars upstairs!" The countess took a sip of coffee and snorted softly, "But Duke Marlborough won't give up, Will will definitely be expelled from the army, and he has no future in this life." And that duke won't allow Robert to pursue me anymore, it's a big loss this time, but I'm glad I found this Tatar ......"
"Tatars? Oh my God, Isabel, you don't like this Tatar, do you? Madame Duran opened her mouth half-open, her face inexplicably surprised.
"Roman! How could I possibly like a Tatar ......" At this, she suddenly paused, and then sighed: "Roman, don't you still understand my thoughts? I won't be getting married again. β
"Are you still thinking about those British upper-class men?" Madame Duran shook her head and sighed, "But will they marry you?" Don't forget, Isabel, that you're only a commoner, and your title of countess is nothing in their eyes! β
Isabel smiled slightly and looked at Madame Duran, "Roman, I didn't tell you, I won't think about getting married again." β
"You've been a courtesan at the Olmark Club for the rest of your life?" Madame Duran smiled bitterly, "Isabel, you are still young, why don't you find someone who loves you to marry?" β
"Someone who loves me? Find someone like Will. It's not difficult for a poor boy like Hemming, but do you think I can still live a hard life like that? Isabelle's teeth gently tugged at her red lips, and after a moment of silence, she changed the subject, "Dr. Blomstein thinks that this Tatar man is very skilled in medicine, and he will definitely become a famous doctor in the future." Roman, think about him, at least pay attention to it, who doesn't have a few hundred pounds a year in London? β
"Give it to me? One...... Tatars? Madame Duran flattened her mouth, as if she was not very satisfied, and after a while, she sighed: "Okay, let's take it first, if he can really become a famous doctor, he can consider it, and he is still quite good-looking." β
At this moment, there was a sound of stairs, and Zhu Jishi, who did not know that he had become a countess and had "belittled" to Madame Duran, had settled his new home in 1842 and came downstairs with great gratitude.
"Roman, help Jason pick a decent dress, he doesn't look like a gentleman now, those people in the customs and the Physicians' Guild are snobs who use their clothes and hats."
The countess smiled charmingly at Zhu Jishi again, "My sister and Henry are both very good tailors, and the clothes here are all handmade by her and Henry, I don't think you mind taking care of their business, right?" β
For less than three pounds, Mr. Zhu replaced his casual suit and jeans with a heavy, thick, crisp dress, and Madame Durand presented him with a bowler hat large enough to fit a rabbit and a half-worn wooden cane. Then Zhu Jishi and Isabel got into the carriage and went straight to the customs in the port of London.
The process of applying for a passport was faster and easier than expected, and the British customs officer only asked Zhu Jishi where he came from and where he was going, and then issued a passport that seemed to be a notebook, and also briefly noted Zhu Jishi's appearance and characteristics on the second page of the passport. It doesn't seem to matter how long Zhu Jishi, a 21st-century smuggler, is going to stay in the UK, whether he wants to work, study, trade or engage in terrorist activities. In this way, on the second day of 1842, Zhu Jishi successfully solved the problem of not having an identity certificate.
After obtaining the passport, Isabel led Zhu Jishi to the seat of the Royal Society of Medicine's Guild of Physicians, and the examination for the doctor's license was not held every day. Mr. Zhu registered for the exam with a clerk with a look of disbelief on his face β preparing to take a medical qualification exam in three weeks' time. Later, he bought several large volumes of medical books from a bookstore next to the Physicians' Association. Although in Zhu Jishi's opinion, the above content is wrong except for nonsense, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a guide to murderous doctors. But in order to get a doctor's license, you still have to drive a night train for a few days in a row to review it. Zuihou's exam went very smoothly, anyway, Zhu Jishi's medical knowledge is still very rich, and he has more than ten years of experience in the examination room, so it's not a piece of cake to deal with a 19shijie homicidal doctor's license exam?
