Breaking through Guandong, I became Zhu Chuanwen

Chapter 66 Shaved Head and Suit

This time Zhu Chuanwen returned to Bingcheng, and then went to the capital. For the capital of this era, he still had some yearning. He carried the letter Zhu Kaishan wrote to Gong Baosen on the train, thinking about the things he needed to do when he came to Beijing this time. .

The first thing is to bring Zhu Chuanwu back. The person who kidnapped Zhu Chuanwu didn't know the purpose, but he definitely wanted to bring him back.

The second is Zhu Kaishan's identity as a wanted criminal. I don't know if he can ask Andre to write a letter of introduction and ask the Russian minister to come out. This is something he has already thought about.But now that there is an extra "mother's family" in the capital, Zhu Chuanwen wants to try and get in touch with Prince Qing who claims to be "how much money and how much to do".

Getting off the train at Bingcheng Railway Station, Zhu Chuanwen went straight to Doug's hotel.

"Mr. Doug, I have something to trouble you again." Zhu Chuanwen said as soon as he entered the door and looked at Doug in neat clothes.

"Mr. Zhu, I happen to have something to ask you too!" Doug said with some surprise.

"Then tell me first!"

"It's better for you to talk first!" Doug politely made a gesture of invitation.

"Mr. Doug, do you have a saber here?" Zhu Chuanwen said bluntly. With his current level of cooperation with Andre, it is indeed a trivial matter to buy cold weapons.

"Still equip your armed forces?" Doug elegantly called this group of "bandits" who do not belong to any force the armed forces.

These days, the Russians and the Japanese have not supported the bandits in the Kanto, or else the bandits in the Kanto could rank first in the country?Even the memorial to the letter said "The banditry in the Kanto region can't be lost."

"Yes." Zhu Chuanwen admitted directly.

"I have about 200 here, but most of them are without their scabbards. Do you want more?" Doug's warehouse is not an exaggeration to say that it is a small arsenal. This time the war was lost, but the head of Russia in the Far East The brain can be regarded as taking the opportunity to make a fortune.

This batch of sabers was transported to Bingcheng by the army after the Battle of Fengtian, and a batch of equipment was repaired here.Andre also took advantage of the rights in his hands to turn part of it into wear and tear, and put it in Doug's warehouse after repairs.

"Thank you so much." Zhu Chuanwen knew that Russian soldiers dare to sell anything they can.

"But I have to talk to the young master about this matter." Doug said, the weapon transaction is very sensitive, and it is necessary to report to Andre, but Doug also felt that Andre would definitely agree to this matter, so he handed it over directly end.

"Then I'll go to Lord Andre?" Zhu Chuanwen asked tentatively.

"Mr. Zhu, that's what I'm going to say. The young master is going to be promoted to the commander of the Bingcheng Garrison this time. His inauguration ceremony will be two days later. I went to your shop in the morning, thinking that you would not be able to make it this time." What a great opportunity." Doug said, looking a little more excited than before.

From colonel to brigadier general, this can be regarded as a hurdle for Russian soldiers to rise.

Andre was able to pass this time smoothly, and he had to be grateful to his seriously injured father.

"That's really congratulations!" Zhu Chuanwen was also surprised to hear that Andre was promoted, but what followed was the ecstasy of choosing the right stock and then raising the limit. The higher the status of the backer, wouldn't he ...

"But you have to wear formal clothes!" Doug added.

Formal attire is also a suit. Zhu Chuanwen tried his best to forget Xia Yuanzhang's appearance in a suit with braids.
Suit.

correct!

Yesterday, when he was picking up the train, he remembered one thing. Zhan Tianyou didn't have braids, so he was able to serve in the Qing court.So can I shave my braids?

But he didn't know that the Qing court attached great importance to braids. In 1881, 120 Westernization students who were sent to the United States to "learn skills from foreigners" were given a memorial by Wu Jiashan, a new member of the Bureau of Studying Abroad. All of them interrupted their studies and were sent back to their home countries. They were randomly ordered by the Qing court to serve everywhere regardless of their majors.It was because he shaved his head and cut his braids on his own initiative, which violated the rules set by his ancestors.

But with such a senior, Zhu Chuanwen asked with his own thinking: "Mr. Doug, do you know that the Garrison Command has the right to appoint advisors?"

Zhu Chuanwen's purpose is to have a foreign identity, so that he can cut off the braids on his head with peace of mind. Even if he is bald, Zhu Chuanwen recognizes him, and at most he wears a hat for a while.

Doug asked with interest: "What is Mr. Zhu doing?"

"Mr. Doug thinks it's appropriate for me to wear formal clothes and braids?" Zhu Chuanwen asked rhetorically.

Doug's hearty laughter spread throughout the hotel. Sure enough, Mr. Zhu was still so interesting in his heart.

"I don't need a consultant, I can help you find a job as an interpreter from the Ice City Public Utilities Committee, so that your court won't do anything to you." Doug said with a smile.

"Is it that easy?"

"Your Binjiang Hall is about to give us this piece of land now. With the certificate of Bingcheng, even if you arrive in the capital, you will also have the protection of the Russian legation." Doug said confidently.

Although Zhu Chuanwen didn't like it, but the fact is, he asked Doug to help him get a translation document.

He was going out, intending to find a barber shop for foreigners and shave his head bald first. The barbers in the Qing Dynasty would not dare to do such a rebellious thing these days.

After coming out of the Russian barber shop, Zhu Chuanwen felt that his whole body was light and fluffy. The **** braids were like the ropes on the gallows, hanging above his head every day. This cut was really a joy in his heart.

Then it's time to buy the suit.

The modern suit evolved from the British tuxedo, and in this era, the tailless Laonki jacket gradually became popular, and its style is similar to that of the modern suit. At the end of the 19th century, when the jacket and trousers were made of the same material and color as a "suit", Europeans and Americans also called it "outing suit".In the 20th century, because this kind of suit was mostly worn by white-collar workers who were active in the political and economic fields, it was also called "work suit" or "industrial suit".

This is the kind of suit that Benarev is wearing. After asking about Doug's dress code, Zhu Chuanwen's goal is also a jacket suit.

There are many clothing stores in the expatriate area of ​​Bingcheng. After struggling for a while, Zhu Chuanwen, who was originally in a long robe and jacket, came out of the clothing store in a well-fitting suit, leather shoes, and a top hat, holding a cane in his hand. Wave the cane in your hand.

If someone approached to listen, Zhu Chuanwen would still hum a song: "Although I'm wearing a foreign dress..."
