The Vicious Stepmother of the Republic of China (Twenty-nine)

Gu Qingcheng didn't care whether his neighbors were top-notch, or what they were criticizing.

When she learned that the person outside was Ma Yong, she put on her veil without delay and opened the door.

"When the general arrives, the humble abode will be filled with splendor."

She smiled and exchanged greetings with Ma Yong.

Ma Yong glanced at Gu Qingcheng's exposed eyes and saw that her eyebrows were curved and she was not angry at all because of what happened in the morning, let alone showing off her anger. He let out a little breath.

Fortunately, Ms. Gu is sensible.

"Ms. Gu, haha, I don't go to the Three Treasures Palace for anything."

Ma Yong laughed and tried in a joking tone.

Gu Qingcheng's eyes flashed, "The general is joking, you helped me several times when we were in the county seat. We, mother and son, are extremely grateful."

"If anything happens to you, just give me your instructions!"

Gu Qingcheng thought about it on the way back.

She can help with Ma Yong's matter.

It's not that she took the opportunity to show off, or that she thought she had gained the friendship of Bayer and Felix, two foreigners.

But through Gu Qingcheng's contacts at the racecourse, she had some understanding of the temperament of these foreigners.

These people look like gentlemen and are very sincere towards their friends.

But they also care about interests at heart.

As long as they can benefit from it, they are good friends!

Ma Yong wants Western-style ordnance, while Bayer, Felix and others want money!

Perhaps in the eyes of many Chinese people in this era, foreigners seem to be rich and superior people because they have a powerful motherland.

actually not.

Just like Mr. Bayer, his social status and economic income in China are both good.

But why is he still so obsessed with horse racing?

Apart from interest, is there no reason for money?

Gu Qingcheng could clearly see that after she led Bayer to win a horse, the strict gentleman from country D had enthusiasm in his eyes.

There is also Mr. Felix, who is also very obviously "arrogant at first and respectful at the end".

for what?

Of course it’s the word money.

As the ancients said, "people die at the expense of wealth."

No matter how "noble" a person is, he can't get rid of his desire for yellow and white things!

Warlords like Ma Yong had money but could not buy weapons.

First, they really have no way out.

Secondly, they have a wrong understanding of foreigners.

I always feel that foreign adults are not short of money, and talking about money with open mouths seems too philistine.

And Gu Qingcheng can help with both of these, so Ma Yong's matter is naturally no problem!

After figuring out these joints, Gu Qingcheng changed his hesitation at the racecourse and became very positive.

Ma Yong misunderstood, and thought that Gu Qingcheng really cared about his "kindness" to her, so he would try his best to help even if it was difficult.

"Ms. Gu!"

This is a truly sincere person.

She must be a good and kind woman who knows how to repay her kindness.

With a control group like MISS Chen, Ma Yong increasingly felt that Gu Qingcheng was reliable.

However, now is not the time to talk about this.

The most important thing is to establish relationships with foreigners and then buy enough weapons.

He has enough brothers under his command, but he lacks weapons.

If the weapons are in place, hum, the warlord——

Ma Yong concealed his ardent ambition, with a plea in his eyes, "Since Ms. Gu said this, I won't be coy about it."

"I guess with your intelligence, Ms. Gu, you can also see that I want to make friends with Mr. Felix."

"He is Mr. Bach's personal doctor. Mr. Bach is a big businessman. Not only does he sell machinery, he also has connections in the military of country D..."

Ma Yong told Gu Qingcheng in detail what he heard from MISS Chen.

Huh?

That MISS Chen is not entirely useless.

At least he got some useful information from her.

Not bad, I paid for the Western food and coffee for free, and I finally got some money back.

Gu Qingcheng nodded, "General, I understand what you mean."

I only wanted to meet Mr. Felix as an introducer.

The person Ma Yong really wanted to curry favor with was Mr. Bach.

"General, when we were at the racecourse, you should have heard that Mr. Bayer and Mr. Felix and I had made appointments."

Gu Qingcheng said softly.

Ma Yong nodded quickly, "Yes, we will go to the racecourse tomorrow." He was also planning to go.

"Tomorrow at the horse racing, I will find an opportunity to help you connect with Mr. Felix."

Gu Qingcheng finally gave a clear attitude.

"Yes! That's what it means!"

Ma Yong laughed, he still looked careless and careless.

But, immediately after, he said, "It would be even better if I could treat Mr. Felix to a meal, haha!"

Chinese people have always had the habit of "discussing business" at the wine table.

Banquets and the like can really build relationships between people.

As a noble daughter of a noble family, Gu Qingcheng held banquets and entertained guests, which was one of the skills she had been exposed to since she was a child.

only--

"It's okay to eat. General, how do you want to treat us and on what occasion?"

Gu Qingcheng is familiar with ancient rituals, but is not very proficient in the Western rituals of this era.

However, even if Gu Qingcheng studied, if she was asked to hold a banquet, she would still prefer "Chinese style".

First, if you are good at this, you cannot "exploit your weaknesses and avoid your strengths";

Secondly, the ancient aboriginal Gu Qingcheng could not say that "what belongs to the nation belongs to the world."

She felt that Chinese people should abide by Chinese etiquette and norms, instead of trying to look different.

Secondly, Gu Qingcheng has the confidence and pride of a Chinese person, and she can learn advanced Western knowledge.

But she has always firmly believed that in terms of culture and other aspects, Chinese people are the real "experts".

However, after coming to this novel world and coming into contact with this unique era, Gu Qingcheng sadly discovered that people in this world are painful and contradictory.

Their spiritual world is inferior and empty.

Some even began to distort and go to extremes in their paranoia.

Yes, the backward old ideas and those feudal bad habits should indeed be abandoned.

Not to mention those radical fighters, even pure ancients like Gu Qingcheng could not agree with foot binding, stereotyped writing, etc.

However, you can't be too extreme and completely deny it.

When Gu Qingcheng was reading the newspaper, he actually saw some celebrities, experts and scholars advocating the abolition of Chinese characters.

Gu Qingcheng:...EXCUSE ME?

She is someone who has experienced the great integration of the North and the South. She knows very well what the essence of Chinese culture is and what the roots of Chinese people are.

And now, those people actually want to cut off their own foundation!

Gu Qingcheng simply couldn't imagine it.

Of course, as she gained a deeper understanding of this era and the people in it, she gradually understood the "pain" of those people.
