Chen Zikun was walking forward like a normal person, and the black shadow followed silently.
Suddenly, Chen Zikun drew his sword and stabbed back.
His movements were as fast as lightning.
The man hurriedly dodged, and the two of them got into a fight.
After a moment, they each stopped. , laughed.
"You kid has regressed, and I've been following you for a long time without even realizing it."
Ergui said.
"I've noticed you a long time ago.
You smell like cologne, and it's hard not to smell it.
You are getting more and more charming as you get older."
Chen Zikun carelessly held the second cabinet's shoulders and entered the hanging flower door.
Walking into the main room, Chen Zikun said: "It's on time."
"It's necessary.
Do you have any white ones?"
Er Ke replied.
"Of course, the authentic Erguotou will definitely suit your taste."
Chen Zikun moved a small jar and put it on the table.
He opened the mud seal of the second cabinet and smelled it, feeling intoxicated: "Although it is not as good as the vodka from my hometown, it is worse than nothing. ” He picked him up and drank a few big sips first.
His collar was wet.
The second cabinet wiped his mouth with his sleeve and said, "It's so satisfying.
I drank brandy whiskey like lukewarm water at the Liuguo Hotel all day long, and I almost feel like a bird in my mouth." " Just hearing these words, I would never have imagined that they would come from the mouth of an old man with blond hair and blue eyes.
"You come to Beijing, Ergui, and you plan to do some big business."
Chen Zikun also took a bowl of sea food and poured Erguotou into it to accompany it.
"Call me Andrei Vasilyevich.
Don't use two cabinets that are long and two cabinets that are short.
I'm afraid that others won't know that we are bandits.
We serve food and wine all day long.
It's so stupid."
The second cabinet continued to fill in as he spoke.
Take a big mouthful.
"You really disgrace me, you're just a food and wine drinker."
Chen Zikun muttered as he got up and went to arrange food and drinks for him.
Aunt Wang happened to be still awake and was coming over with a basin of hot wash water.
Yingyingchuochuo saw There was someone in the room, so he asked Chen Zikun: "Boss, there are guests."
Chen Zikun took the face wash and said, "Auntie, how many times have I told you, why do you always think of yourself as a human being?"
Aunt Wang smiled and said: "Auntie can't sit idle, so she needs to do some work to feel comfortable all over her body."
She shrugged her nose and said, "I'm drinking."
"Yeah, a friend is here, and I was going to the kitchen to find some food to go with the wine."
"You sit down, I'll do it."
Aunt Wang went away in a hurry, and Chen Zikun came back to chat with the second cabinet.
"Brother Andre, this is such an awkward title.
Can you call me something else?"
"I came to Beijing this time under the pseudonym Earl Andre Solomon.
You can call me Earl, or Mr.
Solomon.

I came here because I have a big thing to do."
Andre said mysteriously.
"You don't want to kidnap a young lady or a young man from the chief's family, right?"
Chen Zikun joked.
"If funds are tight, we don't rule out the possibility of doing this."
Andre said seriously.
"Do you need me to help you?
I'm good at this."
Chen Zikun couldn't help itching his hands, thinking of those rich young ladies who spent a lot of money in the Six Kingdoms Hotel, kidnapping one at random and extorting 180,000 yuan in cash.
Difficult matter.
Andre suddenly laughed loudly: "I'm just teasing you.
I came all the way to Beijing just to kidnap people and make money.
I won't hide it from you, my brother.
In fact, I came with a special mission."
"What special mission?"
Chen Zikun's eyes widened, fearing that he would miss a word.
Andrei lowered his voice and said: "Actually, I am the plenipotentiary secret envoy appointed by His Excellency Admiral Alexander Vasilyevich Kolchak, the supreme governor of the Russian Provisional Government, and came to Beijing to negotiate with the Chinese authorities."
Chen Zikun looked like he suddenly understood: "Oh, that's it, I don't understand."
With a serious face, Andrei took out a piece of kraft paper with a big seal and a signature in cursive script from his arms, and showed it to Chen Zikun: "It's funny, isn't it?
A dandy from Petersburg, a man from the Russo-Japanese War.
It may sound absurd that a deserter, a Chinese horse thief, became a special commissioner of the Russian Provisional Government, but it is true.”
Chen Zikun stopped smiling and asked seriously: "What is the mission of this trip?"
Andrei said with emotion: "My motherland, Russia, has reached its most dangerous moment.
Groups of officers and nobles were dragged to the river by the rebellious soldiers and workers and shot.
Nicholas II and his family were treated like dogs by them.
Kill them all, God, these poor princesses Only in their teens, the Red elements not only want to destroy the tsarist regime, but also destroy the spirit of the Russian people.
They are madmen and devils.
His Excellency, General Kolchak, ordered me to get in touch with the top brass of the Beiyang government to find out the appropriate conditions in exchange for them sending troops to assist.”
Chen Zikun asked: "Then have you started taking action?"
Andre said: "The officials of the provisional government think that I am an out-and-out China expert.
In fact, I only speak Chinese well and understand the character of the Chinese people well.
But in fact, I don't understand anything about the Beiyang government. , your president is Xu Shichang, and the prime minister is Qian Nengxun, but it is said that the person who really holds the power is Duan Qirui, the war military supervisor, and Duan Qirui only listens to one person, this person is called Xu Shuzhen, who is the deputy minister of the Ministry of the Army " Here he paused and took a sip of Erguotou: "Do you understand?"
Chen Zikun said: "I'm confused."
A smile appeared on Andre's lips: "The situation in China is complicated, and this trip is more difficult than I imagined.
In fact, you not only have a government in Beijing, but also another southern regime.
Sun Yat-sen, have you heard of this name?
" "No."
Chen Zikun replied honestly.
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore.
Although I am proficient in foreign languages, I am a foreigner after all, so I need a deputy.
You can be my deputy.
Of course, it will not be in vain.
On behalf of the Military Department of the Provisional Government, I grant you the rank of Second Lieutenant of the Russian Navy.
"Andre couldn't help but pull Chen Zikun into his chariot.
Chen Zikun smacked his lips and said, "Second Lieutenant, you are too stingy.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
You are from the Navy.
I have never even seen a ship.
How come you are in the Navy?"
Andrei explained: "Military ranks are sacred and cannot be awarded casually.
I attended the St.
Petersburg Naval Academy for six full years, and I was just a second lieutenant.
You became an ensign without even attending the military school for a day.
It's not enough for you to show off." ” Taking advantage of the alcohol, he took out a stack of blank letters of appointment, spread one on the table, took off the fountain pen and wet it on his tongue, wrote down Chen Zikun's name and handed it over: "Congratulations, Your Excellency, officer." " Chen Zikun didn't care about the rank of second lieutenant.
He took the commission and stuffed it into his arms.
After pondering for a while, he said fiercely: "There must be more benefits.
You are not a good man.
If you don't have money, you can run thousands of miles away."
Come" "Haha, the thing is done, and the benefits will be yours.
The provisional government's gold reserves are very sufficient."
Andre, who had been exposed, winked slyly.
The sound of footsteps came, and Aunt Wang brought the food and wine, a plate of fried peanuts, a plate of pickled cucumbers, a plate of dry-cut braised beef, half a chicken in soy sauce, and a bowl of plain water noodles.
"You old man, please have some midnight snacks."
Chen Zikun greeted enthusiastically.
But Andre shook his head: "Your Chinese food is too bland.
It would be great if you could have some caviar, sweet dumplings with sour cream and cherry filling, and hot beetroot soup."
Having said that, he still ate all the food in a hurry, and drank every drop of the Erguotou jar.
Then he found a place to lie down with satisfaction, and snored grandly.
Early the next morning, the former Russian navy lieutenant woke up from a sweet dream, put on his clothes and went to the yard to practice his signature push-ups.
Not only did he practice it by himself, he also called Chen Zikun to wake up and practice with him.
Aunt Wang came to clean up the mess of the night banquet.
When she saw the wine jar placed in the corner, she thought it was only half drunk.
She stretched out her two hands to move it, but was dodged by the empty jar.
Oh dear, it’s a ten-pound wine jar.
Two people After drinking it all, is this still a human being?
After cleaning up and setting out breakfast, Andre said: "After dinner, you come with me to visit a person and learn the details of the Beiyang government from him."
Chen Zikun asked: "Who is it?"
"Mr.
Lin Changmin, director of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the Presidential Palace and member of the Constitutional Research Association."
Andre had a sly smile on his lips, waiting for Chen Zikun's questioning.
Chen Zikun really took the bait: "Why?"
"Because he and his daughter were fascinated by your heroic appearance in the battle with the Japanese military officer last night, and are eager to get to know your mysterious guest.
Of course, General Xu Shuzhen is also present, but he is a resourceful soldier. , I don’t want to reveal my trump card to him so quickly, so it’s better to find Lin Changmin first.”
After thinking about it, Andre added: "Mr.
Lin's daughter is very temperamental and has different qualities from the girl you brought.
If I were you, I would stick to both sides."
Chen Zikun was greatly embarrassed when his secret was exposed, and said: "I am very dedicated, and besides, they are cousins."
"Sisters take it all, that's better."
Andre winked evilly.
While they were chatting, Xiao Shunzi came back from the night shift.
When he saw Andre there, he was shocked: "Da Kunzi, what are you doing?"

Chen Zikun quickly introduced him, only saying that Andre was a friend he met in Guandong, and did not mention that they had been bandits together.
Xiao Shunzi didn't care about this either.
What he cared about was how to use Da Kunzi to make money.
Regardless of Andre's presence, he impatiently told Yao Yilei about taking care of him.
"Da Kunzi, you don't know how rich Miss Yao's family is.
Rewards always start at five or ten yuan.
It's too embarrassing to give away one yuan.
If you climb this high tree, you won't have to worry about anything in your life."
Xiao Shun Zi clicked his tongue in admiration.
Before Chen Zikun could speak, Andre said: "This plan is good and worth considering."
When he opened his mouth, Xiao Shunzi was shocked: "Oh my god, you can speak Chinese."
Andre chuckled: "Not only can I speak Chinese, but I also know that you are Tom from the cloakroom.
You were the one who stole the evening gown I kept in the laundry room and gave it to this gentleman to wear last night, right?"
Xiao Shunzi lost his mind and looked at Chen Zikun for help.
"Okay, don't scare him."
Chen Zikun smiled.
Andre took out a notepad with a sheepskin cover, took out a fountain pen and wrote a few lines.
He tore it off and handed it to Xiao Shunzi and said, "Tom, please go to the Six Nations Hotel and give this to me."
Lobby Manager.”
Xiao Shunzi held a piece of paper written in French and refused to move.
How could Andre not know what he was thinking, so he took out a copper plate and threw it over: "Take it."
"Poor man, Miss Yao's hair is thicker than your thigh."
Xiao Shunzi cursed and walked away.
When I returned to the Liuguo Hotel, I gave the note to the lobby manager.
The manager immediately sent someone to Earl Solomon's room to bring a suitcase to Xiao Shunzi and let him take it away.
Carrying the suitcase back to Ziguang Depot, Andre opened the suitcase.
Inside was a suit of foreign clothes, complete with jacket, trousers, belt, leather shoes, shirt, socks, tie, and even cufflinks, handkerchief, pocket watch.
Chen Zikun put on his outfit and it fit as if it were tailor-made.
"I found this outfit to be custom-made by a tailor in Paris.
It's a bargain for you," Andre said.
Xiao Shunzi was stunned and didn't know what kind of medicine they were selling in the gourd.
Andre warned him: "Call Miss Yao in two hours and tell her that you got the news that Mr.
Solomon visited Mr.
Lin Changmin's house.
Why, don't you plan to thank me?"
Xiao Shunzi nodded in surprise: "Thank you Sir Suo":
