Forty-eight years of Qianlong

Chapter 114 The Ugly Monster Is Actually a Fairy
Besides, Lu Shoushan brought Shen Jingdan and his daughter into the stairs of the ship, and after passing through a door, the Shen family's father and daughter could only see a narrow passage that only allowed them to pass by.

The walls above the head and on both sides are milky white, but the floor underfoot is green.There is a row of white handrails on the wall on the left, and there is a cover emitting white light every few steps on the roof, making the interior of the entire passage very bright.

Lu Shoushan didn't speak, and opened a door on the right after walking a few steps.After the Shen family's father and daughter followed carefully, there was another staircase with iron railings on the right; after going up, they turned left and turned a corner, facing another closed door.There is a piece of white paper pasted on this door, with some black lines and arrows drawn zigzagging on it.

Before the father and daughter could read the words clearly on the white paper, Lu Shoushan opened the door and walked in.

A smell mixed with rice porridge and steamed buns hits the face. This is where the kitchen and canteen on the Thunder God are located.The two followed Lu Shoushan closely, turned left after entering the door and walked to the end. Seeing him push open a door on the right, they said to the two of them, "Here we are, please come in."

Shen Jingdan and Shen Xuan were dizzy by the winding passage and several cabin doors, so they walked in after holding on to the railing on the wall.When the two looked up, they were startled, and were stunned by the luxury in the room!
On the milky white wall, four large windows are lined up from left to right, and there is another side directly opposite; each window is inlaid with a three-foot-square large transparent glass.

It's not that Shen Jingdan has never seen glass windows, but he has never seen such a large piece of transparent glass.As the sun shone through the windows, he noticed that not a single air bubble could be seen on the glass.

During the Qianlong period, domestic glass products mainly came from three places, Boshan, Shandong, Guangzhou, and the Qing court's Yangxindian manufacturing office.The glass in Boshan, Shandong comes from Yanshen Town, and the output is huge. The main products are some screen pieces and various small jewelry utensils; while the glass produced in Guangzhou is of poor quality, the finished product is thin and brittle, and it is also regarded as a People call it "earth glass"; as for the production of the Office of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, it is mostly various glassware and small pieces of flat glass used in the interior of the palace and rewarding officials.

There are also utensil workshops in Beijing and the "Su Zhu" glass lamps produced in Suzhou. Among them, the most famous ones are the various colored glass snuff bottles produced in Beijing.

Large pieces of flat glass can only be imported from Guangdong Thirteen Bank, which is expensive and difficult to transport, and only princes and wealthy families can afford it.At this time, a piece of flat imported glass of less than two square feet has a market price of 300 taels of silver, which is equivalent to the price of an ordinary house with three entrances in Suzhou or Beijing.It can be seen how expensive imported glass is.

Shen Jingdan looked away from the glass, and saw a large solid wood oval table and several blue cloth chairs in the middle of the room.This is very common.

At this time, Shen Xuan looked up at the small white glass covers on the roof, and asked Lu Shoushan very curiously: "What are these?"

Lu Shoushan was taken aback for a moment, why did the man in front of him speak with the same accent as a woman.He replied, "This is the lamp."

"Light?" The father and daughter of the Shen family were taken aback for a moment.

"Where did this start?"

"Oh, this one doesn't need to be ignited. There is a switch here." Lu Shoushan pressed a white button on the wall while speaking.

The father and daughter saw that the white lampshades flicked on, and then they all lit up, and then went out again.

"May I ask what the reason is?" Shen Xuan continued to ask.

"Uh... I don't understand this either. The master once told me that there is electricity in it, but it won't hurt anyone."

Lu Shoushan didn't care whether the two of them understood or not, he immediately bowed and clasped his fists to the two of them and asked, "Bosses, what exactly do you want to ask me?"

Shen Jingdan glanced at his daughter, clasped his hands together and asked, "Dare you ask me your name?"

"Lu Shou Mountain."

"Just now I heard your accent, may I ask if you are from Dongtai?"

"Exactly. But I've been away from home for many years."

"Excuse me, were you a servant in the Xu family's mansion in Dongtai?" Shen Xuan suddenly asked eagerly in Dongtai dialect.At this time, her tone had changed back to her original voice, and she spoke clearly, like a silver bell.

Lu Shoushan was startled, and stared at the "Boss Cheng" in front of him with wide eyes. "May I ask you are?"

"Brother Lu, is there a place to wash up here?" Shen Jingdan asked.

"Oh, it's right here. Just open the door and go in." Lu Shoushan walked to a small door in the house, and after turning on the light, he demonstrated to the two how to use hot and cold water.The "Boss Cheng" thanked him, then went in and closed the door.

"Boss Shen, what's going on with you? This Boss Cheng..." Lu Shoushan asked suspiciously.

"Brother Lu, please wait a moment, and you will understand."

At this moment, there were several knocks on the door, and the door of the conference room was opened, and Zhao Xin walked in alone.

"Boss Shen, I'm really sorry to keep you waiting. Please sit down."

Zhao Xin originally wanted to bring Liu Sheng over here, but Liu Sheng insisted on going to the bridge to change shifts with Deng Fei, so Zhao Xin let him go.

"Where's Boss Cheng?" Zhao Xin looked around and asked curiously.

Shen Jingdan was so embarrassed that he didn't know what to say, Lu Shoushan gestured for the location of the bathroom with a wink.

"Shoushan, quickly make tea for Boss Shen and bring some fruits."

After speaking, Zhao Xin smiled and explained to Shen Jingdan: "I don't have a servant here. Although Shoushan calls me the master, I actually regard him as a brother. Boss Shen, please don't mind the poor greeting."

"How dare you dare."

The two chatted politely, and Shen Jingdan expressed his admiration for the luxurious layout in the cabin.

In fact, this so-called meeting room was originally the lounge and dining room for the senior crew on the ship.When Deng Fei was in charge of the transformation before, he changed it into a meeting room according to Zhao Xin's request.After removing the partition in the middle, the area suddenly becomes larger, and it looks very spacious and bright.

While the two were talking, Lu Shoushan came in carrying a tray with teapots and cups; at this time, the door of the bathroom in the conference room was slowly pushed open, and seeing the "Boss Cheng" coming out of it, Zhao Xin and Lu Shoushan were stunned immediately!

I saw that "Boss Cheng" was still wearing the same clothes, but his face had completely changed.The face that was originally dark complexion was fair and pleasant, the pupils were water-cut, and the eyebrows were picturesque.The nose that has been removed is like Qiong Yao's beautiful jade, and the red lips and teeth are beautiful and moving.

Zhao Xin opened his mouth and stared blankly at the figure in front of him as if he had stepped out of a painting. His heart beat suddenly and his ears were buzzing.He has seen many beauties with plastic surgery and beautification, but he has not seen many who are pure and natural without modification.This little girl doesn't look very old, but she has such a look that is disastrous to the country and the people. If she grows up, how many people will be blinded!

"Wow!" The tray in Lu Shoushan's hand slipped to the ground, and he couldn't believe his eyes. "Who are you? Are you the lady of the Shen family?!"

"Uncle Lu, do you still remember Ah Quan?" Shen Xuan's eye circles turned red immediately, and she burst into tears.

"Miss Ah Quan!" Lu Shoushan didn't care about the teapots and cups that fell on the floor, hurriedly took two steps forward, knelt down in front of Shen Xuan with a plop, and cried loudly on the ground.

Six years!Six years have passed since Shen Xuan was taken to Shen Jingdan's house by her father for foster care on New Year's Eve that year.In these years, she lived in seclusion, hiding in Tibet, and worried all day long; she was afraid that she would be found out that she was a descendant of a traitor committed by the imperial court.Now that I finally saw an old friend I was familiar with, I suddenly remembered that I was separated from my biological parents forever, and that I was the only one left in the whole family, and all the sorrows that had been suppressed for many years came to my heart at this moment.

Zhao Xin came back to his senses at this moment, seeing the little beauty in front of him crying miserably, he couldn't bear it in his heart.He turned to Shen Jingdan who was wiping away his tears and asked, "Boss Shen, what's going on?"

Shen Jingdan sighed, thinking that this leader Zhao was the owner of Mount Lu Shou, and then picked up what he could say, and told the old story from beginning to end.

"She is the granddaughter of Shen Chengzhuo (zhuo sounds the same as voiceless)!"

It's Dongtai Yizhu Building again!After Zhao Xin listened to it, he felt that he had a constant entanglement with this matter somewhere.First, I accidentally found the Xu family brothers, Lu Shoushan, and Pan Xiucheng on Xiongdao, and now I can meet Xu Shukui's students and descendants in Nagasaki.

He thought that Yancheng, his ancestral home, was just north of Dongtai, and he began to think wildly in his mind, maybe his ancestors had something to do with this matter.Could it be that God let himself come to the eighteenth century through the jade pendant just to avenge these people?
Jade pendant!Thinking of this, Zhao Xin was suddenly shocked.

He was hesitating whether to take out the jade pendant, when Lu Shoushan said hoarsely to the Shen family's father and daughter: "If it weren't for Master Zhao, I, the two young masters, and Brother Xiucheng would have already become dead bones on a deserted island. In order to treat the eldest young master, Mr. Zhao took care of him for several days without taking off his clothes; after that, he took the two young masters as students, and asked Brother Xiucheng and I to work by his side."

When Lu Shoushan praised himself, Zhao Xin felt very embarrassed.He looked at Lu Shoushan and Shen Xuan, who were crying with tears and snot, and said, "Don't be sad. It's been so many years, and it's better than anything else to survive. Shoushan, you go wash your face first." Clean up."

After hearing this, Shen Xuan felt ashamed on her face, she knew that her current appearance must be ugly.People are taking this opportunity to remind themselves to freshen up.So he turned around and went into the bathroom again, closing the door.

Lu Shoushan staggered up and was about to clean up the things on the ground. Zhao Xin told him to wash his face first.

Taking advantage of this time, he smiled at Shen Jingdan and said, "Boss Shen, I admire your character very much. The ancients said that 'gold and jade are not precious, but loyalty is the treasure', and they were talking about people like you."

Shen Jingdan said slowly: "Being entrusted by others, loyalty should be like this." Then he changed the subject, looked at Zhao Xin and asked: "Chief Zhao, I used clairvoyance to watch before, and I thought you were all from Nanyang. I came here. But today I heard that you all speak fluent Beijing mandarin. Can you tell me where you are from?"

"Beihai. I said it before."

"But where is the North Sea?"

Zhao Xin thought for a while before saying: "Well, let's put it this way, our place is thousands of miles away from Ninggu Tower, on the seaside."

"Then you are..." Shen Jingdan, a southern businessman, has no idea about the extreme north.

Zhao Xin's mouth was dry at this time, and he raised his hand to look at his watch, it was already past noon.He stopped talking, and said to Shen Jingdan: "Boss Shen, it's already noon, you guys should have a light meal first. I'll go out and have someone bring it over. If there's anything, let's talk after dinner."

"Ah? That boat! I have to go back to shore." Shen Jingdan said with a sad face.

"Don't worry, although the big boat has left, the Japanese sent a small boat to wait below. I won't let it go, they dare not go."
