A Weird Theater That Started In London

Vol 9 Chapter 51: Empress debut

In the poor West End, pawnshop owners are sympathetic to their customers and willing to meet their needs. For example, pawnshops built near the wharf accept carpenter's tools, and pawnshops near the gathering place of warblers allow men to redeem pawned jewelry for one night. to make a woman happy.

A similar situation also happened in the Eastern District. The pawnshop staff exposed the unspoken rules of the industry on the spot, and released goodwill and friendliness to Lu Li, making people believe that there is true love in the world... that's weird!

Everything is for profit. It cannot be said that all people who are engaged in small businesses are idiots, but those who open pawnshops are definitely trying their best to squeeze the last coin from the pockets of customers.

"Sir, if you encounter financial difficulties, you must consider our store."

In the process of selling the small stove for alchemists, the guy was pleasantly surprised to find that the mysterious gentleman was not that rich, the money bag was made of ordinary material, and there were not many pounds in it.

So he persuaded again.

Frankly speaking, this guy in front of him doesn't know how to hide his greed. Even a child who is ignorant of the world should have noticed the other party's little thought when he hears it now.

Therefore, Lu Li is very curious about what the other party is doing. Two thousand pounds is enough to buy a pure gold walking stick, right?

In the eyes of ordinary people, this transaction is too absurd, and even sighs:

The world has become more and more outrageous. A platinum or silver-plated cane can be sold for a sky-high price, and the bidder is still a pawnshop.

Sure enough, the world is not simple.

If he hadn't put the case in the first place, Lu Li would have wanted to stop for a while and investigate the whole story.

"Lets see."

Lu Li pretended to be hesitant to speak, and then he pretended to be helpless: "It's getting harder and harder to do business during this time, and I like to collect bizarre cultural relics."

"So, this cane is your personal collection?"

"Yes, I bought it from a poor Poles, and I spent a lot of money to get it."

After deliberately revealing a little personal information, Lu Li turned and left the pawnshop with an oiled paper bag in his hand.

He still doesn't know whether the stove inside has any special function.

It's probably a leak, right?

After all, it does have a long history.

"Dear lady, we provide door-to-door service, please leave a detailed address."

Not far from the **** shop, it is a luxury store that sells coats made of various animal skins, as well as various leather products——

A purse made from the skin of the belly of a Mississippi alligator is definitely a premium item, because there is only one spot that has a natural pattern called bamboo knuckles, and each adult predator can produce up to three purses.

Shoulder straps made of Nile monitor lizard hide, which can be dyed to show bright and beautiful colors.

In addition, there are more common diamond python skin, shark skin, ostrich skin.

The Duchess took her two good girlfriends to stroll around here, and then bought belts and bags worth more than five hundred pounds.

In order to retain big customers, the boss decided to let the clerk deliver to the door. In fact, this is an unspoken rule of the Pantheon Market——

As long as the consumption amount reaches a certain amount, the clerk and even the boss himself will change into a small high hat, wear an extra-large suit with shiny buttons on it, and run errands for the customer God.

"The Garrett Mansion."

After some shopping, the baroness calmed down a lot, and she was even thinking about whether to go to the jewelry store next.

Beside them, Mrs. Ivans and Mrs. Aix were no longer too nervous. The lively market, respectful shop assistants, and investigators who secretly protected themselves gave them a sense of security.

Of course, this feeling is not reliable.

From Lu Li to Officer Wensley, the most important thing in my heart is whether to catch the culprit behind the scenes.

To this end, it is worth sacrificing two or three more innocent citizens, not to mention that they are not innocent, and keeping them can only ruin the social atmosphere.

"The Garrett Mansion, isn't it? I'll send someone to bring things over."

The boss repeated it in his mouth, and after confirming that it was correct, he quickly waved his hand and signaled the clerk to send the goods away.

The reason for confirming is because the boss was born in the Eastern District, and the language habits have not been completely changed, so it is difficult to understand the Western District dialect.

In East London, people like to swap 'W' and 'V', use past tense haphazardly, and omit the 'G' sound.

In West London, gentlemen and ladies like a kind of stammering, or, rather, creating syllables.

Lu Li was somewhat touched by this.

At the dinner party a few hours ago, he confirmed one thing, the tone is used to divide the class, and it has little to do with the city and living habits.

The ladies of noble birth speak like this:

Like music-an-blue-sky.

Teacher - safe - good - good.

Sophisticated gentlemen:

In the afternoon, go west - English - travel, in Wharton music - things - road, or go to listen to opera - opera, or go down - race - hey - horse.

Not only that, but he also mixes Spanish and French. If Lu Li had not had the aura of language talent as the actor, it would have been really difficult for him to understand what these people said.

Encircled by yourself?

It may not be the right word, but it does reflect this kind of behavior from the upper echelons.

Everyone is talking about a word that can travel across the country. There may be some pronunciation problems, but it can be guaranteed that everyone can understand it.

Only the nobles have added a lot of tricks on this basis, just to distinguish who is their own and who is a country bumpkin.

In order to integrate herself into the upper-class circle smoothly, the countess from the countryside specially hired an accent teacher, and usually she would also ask her good girlfriends for advice.

"Where to go next?"

Saying that, Mrs. Ivans turned back subconsciously, she saw Lu Li who was watching juggling in the crowd, and then saw the man who deceived her feelings in front of her.

Facts have proved that the three have always been under protection and surveillance.

"Let's go shopping, didn't that Mr. Lu say to leave here in the second half of the night and go to a nearby alley with few people?"

There was undisguised dissatisfaction in her tone, but there was nothing the Countess could do. She could only pity herself, and was targeted by a crazy criminal organization.

Confidence and life are thin.

Although Vanessa didn't know this oriental word, she had a similar mood.

However, Lu Li would not pay attention to what a chess piece was thinking, especially the character and actions of the other party, which were not worthy of sympathy.

Time goes by slowly.

A group of people walked out of the Pantheon unknowingly and came to Regent Street.

Augustus of Rome is famous for his construction,

He inherited the Rome of bricks,

What remains is the great history of Rome,

But isn't our Nash also a master?

He found all the bricks and left us with plaster too!

This is a nursery rhyme. Officer Wensley often listened to his friends sing when he was a child. Over time, he also learned this song.

At that time, Master Nash was in charge of street rectification. He demolished and built many gardens, squares, and several crescent-shaped buildings——

To please His Excellency the Regent.

It was envisaged that the royal family would live here, a large country mansion surrounded by a simple, dependable middle class.

Specifically, it ends at Carlton House, and St. Margaret's Church and Westminster Abbey are built at the rear to highlight the power among the royal family, Christianity and the government.

However, due to various reasons, the street was not built according to the pre-set, but became rudimentary, a series of stairs extending from the street to the boulevard and St. James's Garden, the main structure is white stucco.

At the time, it really caused an uproar, and in the eyes of the citizens, Regent Street was ugly to a new level.

Nearly 40 years have passed, with the change of aesthetic concepts, this street left by the master, which is less than one-fifth of the completion level, is called "one of the greatest roads in the world" by the public, and described by foreign visitors as "" It has a magnificent and magnificent temperament.”

It can only be said that the master is too avant-garde, and the design concept has exceeded the world for nearly an era.

Walking on Regent Street, Lu Li couldn't help but be amazed. West London has done a good job of greening. Almost every few hundred steps there is a garden or a market.

However, who would have thought that between heaven and hell, there is only a Thames River and a financial city.

There are bright lights, street lamps everywhere, gravel floors, and Moorish-style bands playing at the end of the garden.

Gentlemen and ladies sit on the grass, drinking **** beer and tea, eating sea snails and prawns, with well-trained servants and stalls selling dim sum boxes.

Aristocrats can enjoy a quiet life without working, while workers still stick to their posts at this point in exchange for meager wages.

Every day, someone jumps into the Thames without hesitation. Seeing this scene, Lu Li thought of Aisong, the girl who gave herself clues in the tavern and hoped to jump out of the quagmire.

After the time line and the causal line changed, her life changed. The girl who should have been relieved by Mr. Holmes and got a serious job is still staying in the tavern, being randomly selected by drunk guests.

As for the final outcome...

In a deformed era where openness and conservatism coexisted, the suicide rate of Orioles remained high, as described in Dickens's novels-

Little Dooley and her partner Maggie were walking across London Bridge at night when they met a prostitute heading east, in the direction of Granby Street and Waterloo Road.

Maggie asked her, "What are you going to do?"

The prostitute said bluntly: "Suicide."

It's a metaphor, the ultimate destination for her profession.

Thinking of this, Lu Li couldn't help feeling guilty. He was so busy that he almost forgot that there was a girl who had kind thoughts but was inconspicuous and needed rescue urgently.

"Dude."

After a few glances in the crowd, Lu Li walked quickly to Wensley's side, and said solemnly, "Go to the nearby police station and make a call to help me with a personal matter."

Seeing Lu Li's seriousness, Wensley also became serious, "You say it."

"Go to Whitechapel... Street... Pub... Find a girl... Give her a sum of money, ten pounds is enough, and send two police officers to escort... Don't reveal anything, just say these are what she should something."

"This."

Wensley was a little confused, but out of friendship, he assured, "I see, I'll leave the stalking work to the four of you. I'll go to the nearby headquarters and arrange it for you."

As soon as the voice fell, the sound of neat footsteps came from the main road of Regent Street.

"Royal Guard?"

Looking at the conspicuous uniform, Wensley stopped, and not far away, the gentleman and the lady who were enjoying the nightlife stopped all at once.

All activities on the street were halted, as if the pause button had been pressed.

"Oh, the big man is going out."

Bai Yu whistled, and after confirming that the three target figures were not lost, he immediately turned his attention to the guards, to be precise, the carriage surrounded by the guards.

"Which royal will it be?"

Zhao Feng pinched his chin, and a name flashed in his mind with little relevant knowledge:

Prince of Wales.

It's not that you have done your homework in advance. If you do, you won't have only one name in your mind.

The fact is that after the first entrance examination, he simply glanced at the information and knew that after the death of Queen Victoria, his son, the Prince of Wales, succeeded the United King of Great Britain and Ireland and the Emperor of India.

Unfortunately, Zhao Feng is still not bold enough.

In the carriage sat the elderly Queen Victoria. She went out late at night, hoping not to cause too much a stir, but the number of guards and various rituals made the knowledgeable men crazy.

Officer Wesley was no exception.

He sorted out his clothes, took off the high hat on his head, and saluted the monarch's car.

The ladies also reacted and paid their respects to the great monarch.

Decades ago, the young Queen Victoria had just ascended the throne and set off from Kensington Palace to St. James' Park. The whole process did not stir up the slightest splash, and the public was not interested in her.

The gentlemen refused to salute her at the Royal Races, and it was only when a courtier compelled her that the queen was reluctant to receive a perfunctory welcome.

Later, on the Queen's big day, citizens stood in the rain to watch the ceremony, still reluctant to cheer. Among the folks, her husband was jokingly called a German sausage, a word containing contempt.

But as time went on, the situation began to change. The first royal family was born, the park fired to celebrate, and when the third child was born, the theater played "God Save the Queen" uniformly, and a small number of impolite people refused to take off their hats. led to the siege of a large number of patriots.

There are many reasons for this.

First of all ~www.readwn.com~ During the reign of the Queen, the British Empire reached its peak and stood on the top of the world. All citizens, whether rich or poor, felt proud.

Secondly, the Queen has experienced seven attempted assassinations, and the public has developed a strong admiration and sympathy for her, which has turned into love.

Now, Queen Victoria is entering her old age, and the initially rebellious young men have also become old-fashioned figures, holding a lot of social resources. .

Under the influence, the aristocratic youth and the middle class all highly respect the Queen.

Black to deep natural powder.

When the powder goes deep, it will turn black again.

The popularity of the public came so fast that after reaching a peak, it declined at the same rate.

Because the queen is slack.

The death of her husband made Victoria live a life of isolation, a year or even two years of private grief, worthy of the world's respect, but she was too extreme, stubbornly lived in Windsor Castle and her own private palace, refusing to live in the city. area, or perform duties.

"Tonight, the Queen is in the city, which is really a good thing." A gratified smile appeared on Wensley's face, "It seems that the persuasion of the bigwigs has worked, and she is willing to start over and perform public duties little by little..."

Before he could finish speaking, a discordant voice suddenly came from farther away, especially clear——

Poke hot sand in her eyes,

Put firecrackers in her nose,

grill her to charred soil,

Victoria went to see the old Hades.
