3989 Chaos in Suzhou

When Simpson said he had no money, the escort escorts were furious, yelling swearing at swear words that Simpson and the translator couldn't understand.

But the owner of the store could understand and quickly explained to Master Yang, "Master Yang, are these men from the escort agency using the words on the road? Ask the thief around him who stole your property!"

"This is a slap in the face! This little thief has to cut off one hand. This is the sign of destroying other people's escort agency!"

Simpson was stunned for a moment, "I...I didn't lose money!"

"Ah? You said you didn't lose money..." Everyone gathered around and asked, then they understood what was going on. The men in the escort agency were so angry that they didn't bother to pay attention to him even if they kicked the chair!

If it weren't for the fact that he was a foreigner, these people would have to say to him!

The masters of these escort agencies thought that the eyes were unaware of the thief stole the package from the foreign master. They cursed him all the time, but Simpson himself said that he had not lost anything!

It turned out that Simpson forgot to exchange currency!

Simpson brought pounds along the way, and the sea was British colonies, and a few other colonies also recognized the purchasing power of pounds!

So for convenience, he brought a lot of pound notes and a small amount of Mexican eagle, and these silver coins were gradually spent before!

When he arrived in Shanghai, he had basically all the banknotes and pounds left in his hands, and he forgot to exchange them for the Qing Dynasty's currency!

Before staying and having sex, he habitually packed up his parcel and then discovered the big problem!

In the Qing Dynasty, you took a large roll of pound banknotes to spend. Who knows it? Except for major commercial ports such as Shanghai, there are foreign banks, how can anyone else know pounds?

The hotel owner laughed as soon as he heard this, "I can't guarantee that if you want to talk about other cities, I can't worry about money if you want to talk about Suzhou Prefecture! This place has been a land of fish and rice since ancient times, and a wealthy place in Jiangnan!"

"And when the money and ticket crisis was in trouble a few years ago, the head of state took advantage of the situation and established a stock market in Suzhou. At present, there are not many other banks in Suzhou, but there are many ticket numbers!"

"The Chinese call us a city of finance... Do you know Mr. Liu Cai Shen! The legendary figure is the person here..."

"Don't say you want to change the pound, you can change the currency of Europa and America at will, and you will guarantee that the exchange rate is the same as Shanghai, and you will not suffer any loss at all!"

This was really beyond Simpson's expectations. He had heard of Shanghai's reputation in Europe, the largest financial center and commercial distribution center in the Far East!

But I didn’t expect that a small town by Taihu Lake also had European banks?

"Thank you, boss, I want to change some pounds, where is the best place to go?"

"There is no other choice. Of course, it is the local Fukang Bank in Jiangnan. The ticket number run by the shopkeeper Hu Xueyan and Hu Da, a red-topped businessman, has just been promoted to a bank in recent years. Where can you exchange it..."

The people of Jiangnan are somewhat popular, and they are willing to introduce them to friends who are closer when they have a deal. In fact, there are many Chinese banks here, and there are also banks that the Fan family has invested in, but he does not recommend any of them!

Simpson thanked the boss, who was very grateful to the sidelines, walked in Suzhou City under the protection of the translator, Indian servants and two bodyguards!

Suzhou City still retains its quaint appearance, with small bridges and flowing waters, and many houses are built along the river channel. People can see the flowing river water below by opening the window.

The historical city with more than two thousand years has made every brick and tile here full of quaint vicissitudes, and even the moss on the stone slabs are of unique interest!

Behind the pink walls and green tiles, there are many gardens of rich people. Lush trees and green plants emerge from the courtyard wall, scattering shade along the way!

Simpson was completely intoxicated here. He walked in the painting to enjoy the beautiful scenery of Jiangnan, and he himself became a landscape in the eyes of the people of Suzhou City!

The children fell from afar and shouted excitedly, "Foreign devils...foreign devils...look at the foreign devils..."

Only a few years have passed? The people of Suzhou City have forgotten the bloody battle before, even if the occasionally traces of the flames burned back then remain on the walls!

Standing on the corner of the street and smelling the unknown fragrance of flowers, Simpson suddenly forgot about time and space. He was the only one in the world and everything in the world. The beauty had surrounded him!

I don’t know how long it took, but a sudden quarrel woke him up from his intoxication. I looked up and saw that he had just walked to the bank of Fukang. The translator and his little Asan had already gone to exchange for pounds!

But never expected that the young Indian servant Xiao Dali was pulled out by several bank friends with brooms, and he beat him up and added a lot!

"What's wrong? Why do you beat my slaves! Why don't you stop..."

Simpson glanced at the two studs angrily, and the two studs smiled, "Our mission is to protect you, not to protect this black boy. He and the translator entered Fukang Bank. If he didn't line up, he would pretend to be big. Who would he hit if he didn't hit him?"

It turned out that just when Simpson was in a daze, the Indian servant Dali followed the translator into the bank. They wanted to rely on their status as a foreigner and not queued up to exchange pounds first, but they didn't expect that the guy on the counter had a very bad temper and pointed at his nose and scolded them!

"Where did the Kunlun slave who is blind? And this blind foreign devil... Didn't you see the old man queuing up? Are you thrusting away! Are you waiting for reincarnation and seeking death?"

"Get out, I think there are mass graves in the south of the city. You can bury them together with Death Changmao...what!"

The Indian boy didn't know what he scolded, but the embassy's translator could understand. This guy was also a noble British man. When did he get such scolding in Shanghai?

There are so many shops on the Bund, which will make foreigners line up? How come you are so domineering in Suzhou City today!

"How can you curse? We are the British Empire..."

"Bah..." He spitted over with a mouthful of saliva, followed by a cup of cold tea that was directly poured onto his face. The shopkeeper who exchanged foreign currency stood up and shouted with his eyes slanted.

"Where are you? Are you blind? Or are you lame? Scan the pair of trash for me and beat them out!"

When the two men at the door heard the orders on their backs, they swung the broom and slapped them all, causing dust to fly into the entire bank hall. The translator and the Indian San ran away with their heads!

Simpson woke up and saw the farce, and rushed over and stopped him in front of him, "Stop... How can you hit someone? If they do something wrong, they can make them apologize. If they violate the law, they can go to see the judge..."

"Why do you want to hit people? Isn't China a country of etiquette?"

After saying this series of foreign languages, before the translator could speak, the second shopkeeper who was walking around from behind the counter was actually fluent in English!

"Ouch! London accent! Are you from London? The suit is good, you can tell that it is a high-end product..."

"Of course China is a country of etiquette! But this also means to whom! Your servant is not sick or disabled, so why don't you line up?"

"Want to play privilege in front of me? I don't spoil you"

Ouch! Simpson was stunned. He didn't expect that a counter salesperson with ordinary clothes would have such fluent English!
