The rickshaw driver scratched his head in embarrassment, and said with a simple smile:"Young Master Shen has worked, my master said, a bad name makes a living."

Er Gouzi's original name was Gou Li. Despite his old appearance, his actual age was also Just 22 years old.

Er Gouzi looked at the father-in-law in front of him and felt that it was quite comfortable to chat with him.

He doesn't have that arrogant and domineering attitude, nor does he look down on others. The key is to be heroic. I hired him alone in 10 days, and he can earn 300 yuan. Where can I find such a good thing?

Regardless of what Ergouzi said, he could earn more than 100 yuan a day, but that was just trying to make a fool of himself.

There is no technical skill in the rickshaw driver industry, and the pressure of competition is also very high. Sometimes the money earned from a day's driving is not enough to cover the rental fee. Therefore, Ergouzi's biggest dream is to have a van of his own.

Many people around looked at Shen Hao and were speechless. He was really a prodigal.

A pair of eyes in the crowd stared closely at Shen Hao's pocket, like a hungry wolf looking at its prey.

Shen Hao was sitting on a rickshaw and looked at the soldiers with guns and ammunition at the entrance of the Forbidden City. Then he remembered that although Puyi abdicated, he still lived in the Forbidden City. There were still many old and young people from the Qing Dynasty.

Although Shen Hao has traveled to the Forbidden City, it was after it was opened to the public and it was full of tourists, which was different from now.

A palace without the emperor, eunuchs, maids, and concubines would have no feeling at all, just like looking at a pile of dead things.

Today, at the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China, the little emperor is still there, and there are concubines and eunuchs in the harem. Shen Hao's curiosity is still very strong.

Life in the Qing palace was still luxurious, and many eunuchs and maids were still there.

The Republic of China overthrew the Qing Dynasty, although the emperor was still there.

But with the decline of imperial power, these eunuchs and maids no longer respected him as a little emperor.

In order to be lazy, the palace maids and eunuchs were spoiled by the palace maids during their growth period, and they could no longer be humane.

Finally, Queen Wanrong and Concubine Wenxiu were both widowed. The Queen even started smoking cigarettes, going crazy all day long, and finally got divorced.

Thinking of this, Shen Hao felt a little sad, the emperor was acting like a loser.

But after looking at the Beiyang Army standing guard outside the palace, I wanted to take a look, so I gave up.

Now, he really doesn't have the power to ignore these soldiers.

These days, killing people is like nothing.

Disappearing someone for no reason is almost like squeezing an ant to death.

As if feeling a sense of urgency, Shen Hao's desire to spend money became stronger.

Didi didi!

A car horn sounded, startling Shen Hao.

There was a sound of footsteps, hundreds of soldiers guarding both sides, and two Ford cars driving towards the palace.

The soldiers standing guard quickly saluted when they saw the car.

‘Yuan Shikai’s ostentation is really quite big’

‘Nonsense, if there was no one to protect me, I would have been killed so many times’

‘Shhh, keep your voice down, I'll catch you carefully’

‘What are you afraid of? Now that the whole country is resisting, his life will not be easy.

Shen Hao's attention at this time was on the old car, and he was a little greedy and said: This thing should be very valuable. I will build one in a few days..

In this era, there is no such thing as domestically produced cars or joint venture cars. These classic Ford cars are all imported from the United States.

As for the price, Shen Hao really didn't know much about it.

After the army left, Shen Hao asked curiously:"Gou Li, do you know how much this Ford car costs?"

For the first time someone called his name, Gou Li felt warm in his heart and felt like he was living like a human being.

There was a simple and honest smile on his dark face, with a somewhat reserved expression, and he said sheepishly:"Master Shen, you should call me Ergouzi. I really don't get used to it when you call me my name. I feel uncomfortable all over."

Shen Hao was speechless. He didn't know what to say. He just felt that calling someone a second-rate dog was a bit disrespectful.

"Okay, Ergouzi, do you know how much this Ford car costs? Gou Li nodded, and then exclaimed:"You said this foreign car is so valuable, one seems to cost 4,000 yuan.""

"4,000 yuan?"It's so cheap," Shen Hao said doubtfully; he can earn 86 yuan a day. When the pocket watch is upgraded to level 2, it will cost 172 yuan a day, which means that he can buy one in less than a month.

Hearing this, Gou Li's brain was a little short-circuited, it was completely beyond his understanding and he swallowed his saliva and said in shock:"4,000 yuan is still cheap?"

The purchasing power of Dayang at this time, 4,000 yuan in the 21st century, is almost several million.

Gou Li only felt that his three views were about to be subverted. This Master Shen was really too rich.

He looked at Shen Hao in awe , said again:"This foreign car costs 4,000 yuan, it’s so cheap, my God.

My rickshaw costs NT$50, and I have to save for three years to buy a rickshaw.

I can never afford a foreign car in my life.

And I heard that the driver of this foreign car costs 15 yuan a month, not counting the cost of gas.

I heard that gasoline is so expensive. A month’s worth of gasoline for these foreign cars costs 80 yuan. I’m scared to death when I think about it. What kind of family is this? How much food can they buy if they can spend so much?"

Shen Hao was stunned for a moment, not because of the price, but because he remembered that gasoline is very expensive these days.

The Magic City is known as the Pearl of the Orient, and gasoline is a luxury product. During the Anti-Japanese War, gasoline was made by the military everywhere. Can't even buy it

"Master Shen, buying this foreign car for 4,000 yuan is really not a good deal.

On the north side of the west section of Wangfucang Hutong in Fuchengmen, there is a seller who is selling a house with 3 main rooms, 4 wing rooms, 2 south rooms, 1 wing room, and 1 gatehouse, a total of 11 rooms, covering an area of Half an acre, the bid only cost 150 yuan, and there were very few people buying it. In these years of war and chaos, people's hearts are unstable.

You have another 4,000 yuan, so what can you buy?" Gou Li felt that Shen Hao in front of him was a bit prodigal, so he tried his best to persuade him;
