Cannon Fodder Cheat System - Chapter 17

[Chapter 17]

The Republic of China (1)

Jing Yang opened his eyes and saw the dark green roof. He tilted his head and found that he was lying on a large wooden bed. Looking at the style of the bed and bedding, this time it seemed that it was from ancient times. ?

He opened the tent and got out of bed, looked around, the furnishings in the house were classical and exquisite, and he could estimate the price of those vase ornaments just by looking at them.

Judging from this room alone, the original owner of this body should be a young master from a wealthy family. He may be a businessman at home. Although there is a desk in the room, there are only a few account books on it, and no poetry books.

Sit down at the desk and open a drawer at random, pocket watch? Jing Yang played with the pocket watch in his hand for a while, then thought of another possibility. Take out a box from the bottom of the drawer, open it and see that it is a gun. Judging from the shape and structure of the gun, it should be the Republic of China.

Jing Yang has also been to the Republic of China several times, but the background of each time and space has many different places. What is this time and space like? He still receives information related to this body and this world from the system, just Stop playing guessing games.

Jing Yang leaned back in his chair, and his consciousness returned to the system.

This body’s real name is Cheng Junxi. He is the eldest young master of the Cheng family. The fourth generation of the Cheng family is a businessman. The family has a big business, not only in tea houses, but also in shops such as cloth restaurants.

Cheng’s family is thin, and Cheng Junxi’s father is a three-generation single, but in Cheng Junxi’s generation, he is not the only son.

Cheng Junxi’s mother was a lady of the official family. When she married Cheng’s father, although the royal family was already crumbling, the emperor was still in power. Cheng Junxi’s grandfather was also a very big official at the time. She married into the Cheng family and was considered a marriage.

Cheng Junxi’s grandfather knew in his heart that the Luo Shi Dynasty was about to come to an end, and it was hard to say what the final outcome of these officials would be. He married his daughter to the wealthy Cheng family because he valued the wealth of the Cheng family and the simple population. He only hoped that his daughter could live a peaceful and worry-free life.

In the first few years of Cheng Junxi’s parents getting married, they also had conjugal love, Qin Se and Ming. When Chen Junxi was about two years old, Cheng’s father fell in love with an actor when he went out to talk business. Regardless of the opposition of his family, he insisted on marrying the actor.

The actor’s surname was Xu. She was delicate and gentle on the outside, but she was a very scheming woman. She entered the Cheng family and became her aunt, making the relationship between Cheng Junxi’s parents more and more embarrassing.

Cheng Junxi’s mother is a lady of the official family, and she is not a woman without means. The education she received since she was a child has allowed her to maintain a decent wife and not make trouble. She was already heartbroken by Cheng’s father, and she no longer wanted to save the man’s heart. She was only dedicated to her son and held the family business in her hands as much as possible.

Although Cheng’s father favored Aunt Xu, after his wife’s attitude suddenly changed and he stopped targeting him and Aunt Xu, he still gave her the respect that his wife should have. Moreover, the wife born in the official family was a good housekeeper. Many things at home, and some property for her to take care of, he is also at ease.

Just after Concubine Xu gave birth to his concubine Cheng Jiaming, Father Cheng suddenly wanted to make Concubine Xu his equal wife. Aunt Xu tried her best to let Father Cheng raise her as a flat wife. After thinking for a while, Father Cheng felt that only true love was between him and Aunt Xu. Let her true love be a concubine for the rest of her life, and their sons would carry their concubines for the rest of their lives. Fame, unhappy in my heart, I agreed.

At that time, the status of an actor was incomparable to that of now. She belonged to the lower class. To raise Concubine Xu as a flat wife was a great insult to Cheng Junxi’s mother. don’t agree with this either.

Cheng Junxi’s grandmother eats fast food and recites Buddha in the small Buddhist hall all the year round, but asks about things outside the home, but after knowing that her son is going to carry an actor as his wife, she left the small Buddhist hall and is determined not to allow this matter.

Cheng Junxi’s father can ignore his wife’s objection, but he can’t do whatever he wants regardless of his mother’s objection. His mother’s majesty in his heart is even greater than that of his deceased father, so this matter will not be settled.

Cheng Junxi’s grandfather was a romantic person, and he might not be able to remember every one of his concubine’s lover. In such a situation, Cheng Junxi’s father could still be the only son of Cheng’s family, and Cheng Junxi’s grandmother’s. The means are evident.

Concubine Xu dared to fight with Cheng Junxi’s mother, but did not dare to play the slightest trick in front of the old lady, she was very honest for a while. But she never stopped thinking about being a flat wife. She just wanted to wait for her son to be older and the old lady to go, and then find a chance to bring it up again.

One day, Father Cheng took Concubine Xu and his concubine Cheng Jiaming out to play, and contracted a cold outside. Since he was always in good health, he didn’t care too much.

Who knew that when I returned home a few days later, the wind chill suddenly became severe. I coughed every day, but there were some problems in the business. Although I asked the doctor to order medicine, I didn’t have time to rest well, and the wind cold did not improve at all.

Cheng Jiaming hadn’t seen his father for more than ten days. He finally saw him, so he made a fuss to go to the street to play. Cheng’s father took their mother and son there.

Concubine Xu’s mother and son didn’t do well after drinking the ginger soup. Father Cheng had a high fever that night, and he was unconscious of the fever. Concubine Xu played with her son for a day. She was very tired and slept very deeply. She didn’t notice that Father Cheng, who was lying beside him, was terribly hot.

The next day, Concubine Xu hurriedly asked someone to ask for a doctor. Cheng’s father was so sick that he was astonished and alarmed the whole family. The old lady was guarding the room, watching the doctors take turns to rectify Cheng’s father. A few days passed, but there was no improvement at all.

Cheng’s father, who was upright and in his prime, went away so suddenly. The old lady was just such a son. She had to go through many ups and downs when she was young to bring him up and inherit this huge family business. Under the extreme grief, the old lady couldn’t take it anymore, and blamed all the faults on the head of Concubine Xu and her son. Before closing her eyes, she instructed the housekeeper to drive out Concubine Xu and her son, and she would not be allowed to enter the journey again. home door.

Concubine Xu had a good plan. She wanted to let Father Cheng carry her as his wife when the old lady went, but Father Cheng was partial to her son. Her son could compete in this business, maybe he could. Fight for the big head.

But people’s calculations are not as good as heaven’s calculations, Cheng’s father suddenly went like this, and she and her son were kicked out of the house by the seriously ill old lady. Even if she is not kicked out of the house, after the entire Cheng family falls into the hands of Cheng Junxi’s mother, she will never have a good life with the things she has done before.

Concubine Xu had nowhere to go, so she could only take her son back to the original troupe. Although she was only a concubine in the Cheng family, she lived like a noble wife. Now she has fallen to the bottom again. She can’t accept this gap, so she is cruel. He left his son in the troupe and ran off with a businessman in his fifties.

Cheng Jiaming was only six or seven years old at the time. Although he had already started to remember things, he had no ability to live alone, and he had no way to find his mother. Before he was a rich young master, he knew nothing and suffered a lot. Concubine Xu left nothing for him, only a letter telling him that he was the blood of the Cheng family no matter what, and that he should have a share in the Cheng family’s family business, so that when he grows up, he will definitely be a part of it. Find a way to take over the Cheng family’s family business.

This letter was Cheng Jiaming’s only thought, and he had to take it out and read it every day, so the content of the letter was deeply engraved in his mind and became a reason to support him to live. Gradually, the memories of the Cheng family and Aunt Xu began to blur in his mind, but he always remembered that he was going to return to the Cheng family and take back what should belong to him.

After the Tang, Song, Yuan and Ming Dynasty, it should have been the Qing Dynasty, but I don’t know which butterfly flapped its wings. The Qing Dynasty did not exist in this world. After the Ming Dynasty was the Wei Dynasty, and after the Wei Dynasty came the Luo Dynasty. .

The Luo Dynasty was overthrown and fell into a melee between warlords. After a few years of chaos, President Yang Da is now in power. He has subdued many warlords, but there are still some warlords who are still struggling and unwilling to surrender.

The era has entered the Republic of China, and opera singers are not as despised and lowly as they were in the feudal dynasty. Although they are not superior to others, they are also classified as ordinary people. Some famous characters who sing well are also appreciated by the powerful and sought after by the common people, which are not much different from modern stars.

After more than ten years of hard training, Cheng Jiaming began to show his prominence and gradually became a famous actor. He returned to Licheng to sing.

Licheng is a place of outstanding people. The businessmen of Licheng and the drama of Licheng have a very high reputation in the whole country. This city is very prosperous, there are many people doing business, and there are many rich people. People in the city like to listen to operas, and even the poorest people can comment on whether the opera is good or bad.

After Cheng Jiaming returned to Licheng, he established his own Chengjiaban and bought Graceland. Not only did he become the most popular and best actor in Licheng, but he also became friends with the local warlord Wei Tianxiong and started his plan to retake the Cheng family’s business.

Although the Cheng family has a lot of property, after Cheng Junxi’s father passed away, the world began to be in chaos, and warlords from all over the world fought each other. The Cheng family has closed several shops, and only the tea house is doing well. After Cheng’s father passed away, Cheng Junxi’s mother was a woman, and it was hard to show her face, but she reluctantly supported the business.

Two years ago, Cheng Junxi’s mother also passed away, and he had no talent for business, and the Cheng family was gradually declining. Fortunately, after President Yang Da took office, the world began to stabilize, and there were no wars everywhere. Even if he was not good at doing business, with the signboard of the Cheng family’s time-honored brand and the wealth accumulated over the years, it was enough to make him prosperous. The wealthy is over.

But after Cheng Jiaming returned to Licheng, together with Wei Tianxiong, the local emperor of Licheng, they started a plan to loot the Cheng family. In the past, as long as the Cheng family made offerings on time, they would be able to live peacefully together, but later Wei Tianxiong’s appetite grew, and with the flow of foreign goods into the country, it became increasingly difficult for the Cheng family to do business.

At this time, tobacco soil began to flow into the country. Wei Tianxiong was extremely greedy. He knew the dangers of tobacco soil, but in order to make money, he started selling tobacco soil. Tobacco pavilions in Licheng have been established, and these pavilions are all purchased from Wei Tianxiong.

Cheng Junxi is a person who is content with the status quo and has no ambitions. He can’t manage his own business well, and he has no interest in opening a cigarette shop. But those businessmen who opened cigarette shops started to make a lot of money. He was the only one who didn’t make any noise here. Under the half persuasion and half threat of the people sent by Wei Tianxiong, in order to sell Wei Tianxiong a face, he also opened a cigarette shop. Hall.

Because smoking halls have just become popular, the harm is not so obvious, and there are not many people who really know about it. Later, Cheng Junxi also became addicted to smoking, and her health became worse and worse.

The harm of smoking soil is getting bigger and bigger. The people sent by President Yang Da to Licheng could not fight against Wei Tianxiong and could not successfully ban smoking. Later, President Yang Da’s nephew, Yang Shaoshuai, came to Licheng. This man was not young, but his ability was not small. He was an extremely powerful character. The purpose of his coming to Licheng was to deal with Wei Tianxiong and rectify Licheng.

Wei Tianxiong couldn’t fight against Young Master Yang, and was shot and killed when he escaped with a confidant. Cheng Jiaming, because of his good work with Young Master Yang, and he played a lot in the subsequent anti-smoking campaign, so he is still a popular actor.

Cheng Junxi, as the owner of the smoke shop, not to mention that the shop was smashed, almost Wei Tianxiong and Cheng Jiaming both of their property were encircled, and the rest of the property was also confiscated and used to build a smoking cessation center. Under the operation of Cheng Jiaming, Cheng Junxi, who was addicted to smoking, failed to enter the smoking cessation center to quit smoking, but lived on the streets.

When Cheng Junxi was living on the street, Cheng Jiaming came to him and told him the truth of everything. Cheng Jiaming returned to Licheng just to retaliate against the Cheng family and Cheng Junxi. He succeeded, not only did he take back the Cheng family, he became a famous person in the world and was sought after by others. And he, Cheng Junxi, can only live on the streets and be spurned by others. This is karma.

Cheng Junxi didn’t understand why he ended up now because of karma, and he didn’t owe Cheng Jiaming anything. Cheng Jiaming was kicked out of the house and learned to sing in the opera troupe. It had nothing to do with him, but Cheng Jiaming put all the accounts on his head.

He hated it very much, hated Cheng Jiaming and Wei Tianxiong, and hated his own incompetence. His last thought before his death was that even if he was a ghost, he must avenge this.
