"Yuanqing, are you worried about southern Liaoning? Now Shen Shikui has already gone to Lushun to take up his post, and the south of Liaoning Province is almost deserted. Is he afraid of an egg? "
Chen Zhong is a little anxious.
Li Yuanqing laughed and shook his head, "brother, let's talk about this matter on the boat. It's not just the wind but the trees. "
Chen Zhong was stunned.
But for a moment, he also reflected that his brother would never shoot at a target or harm him. Since he said so, there must be his reason.
Chen Zhong can only hold his temper for a while.
Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong's fleet, since entering Beijing, have been staying at Dagukou wharf without leaving. They head for the afternoon sun. In the evening, they arrive at Dagukou wharf smoothly and begin boarding.
The setting sun in the West dyed the sunset of the horizon, and the vast sea surface seemed to be covered with a layer of golden dress.
The fleet soon set sail, and all the women went to the cabin to rest. Li Yuanqing stood in the bow of the boat, letting the sea breeze blow across his face.
At this time, although he got the result he wanted, Li Yuanqing also clearly understood that he did not turn back.
Having made this decision, it is inevitable that he and Mao Wenlong break up.
But as the saying goes, "people go up, water flows down."
Whether Li Yuanqing or Chen Zhong want to get better development, they must go out of this step.
At this time, more and more hidden dangers of Dongjiang were exposed.
Mao Wenlong himself has a high prestige and force, can firmly control the ship.
But Dongjiang's internal conflicts of interests and unfair distribution have made many veteran generals of time-honored brands dissatisfied. And the new generation of generals can't get ahead for a while
No matter Li Yuanqing or Chen Jisheng, they can't resolve this contradiction. The best way is to draw a group and fight a group.
And history has proved that Chen Jisheng failed, and he failed miserably. He was devoured by his subordinates, and Dongjiang was destroyed.
At this time, such a state can jump out of the circle of Dongjiang on the top of the flourishing torrent. On the contrary, it can make Li Yuanqing better avoid the whirlpool under the torrent, avoid the entanglement of interests, and make a good man's feelings.
However, even though they were separated from the Dongjiang River, the relationship between the south of Liaoning and the Dongjiang River was closely related.
In terms of PiDao, Li Yuanqing is not too worried. With Mao Wenlong's shrewdness, it is almost impossible for Houjin to get a cheap price from him.
But in southern Liaoning
To be honest, Li Yuanqing didn't have much confidence in Shen Shikui.
Especially after the Fu Zhou battle, the later Jin Dynasty realized that the southern part of Liaoning Province had become bigger and would try to pull out the nail of Lushun.
As for Fuzhou and Jinzhou, they are already pure military cities and no man's land. They have been abandoned. Li Yuanqing will not have any pressure to give up the two places.
But in Lushun, how could Shen Shikui give up?
How could Mao Wenlong give up?
Thus, if there is another war in southern Liaoning, Lushun will bear the brunt.
To a certain extent, Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong had already separated from Dongjiang and went to help defend Lushun. It was obviously not as good as when they were together with Zhang pan
This son of a bitch, is really cut continuously, reason also chaos.
Especially in the battle of Mongolia, Li Yuanqing didn't know much about it. He had to improvise and see his luck.
How can Chen Zhong take risks together?
In the evening, Chen Zhong asked the firemen to set up an oven and moved to the bow of the boat. He and Li Yuanqing roasted horse meat while drinking and chatting.
For Chen Zhong, Li Yuanqing did not hide too much and directly expressed his concerns.
Chen Zhong took a hard drink, "Yuanqing, what do you mean? Do you want me to stay to help defend Lushun and stabilize the defense line of southern Liaoning? "
Li Yuanqing nodded and sipped the wine in the cup. "Big brother, this is just one aspect. The other is the salt field... "
The salt works of Changsheng island began to operate years ago, and now we have some experience.
At this time, it seemed that the two departments had won the battle, but the reward from the imperial court had not been allocated. Even if the money was allocated, except for the grain money returned to the Qu family, there would be very little left after all the parts under his command had allocated their meritorious service.
In this way, the development of financial resources has become the most important issue of the two books.
But at this time, Yang Xiaobo, who went to Nanyang, did not come back, and it was difficult for him to trade with Japan. Li Yuanqing had to rely on the sea to feed on the sea and take the saltworks as his first choice.
Listening to Li Yuanqing's explanation, Chen Zhong's eyes brightened. "Yuanqing, according to what you say, if the salt field is operated, it will bring a net income of more than 5000 Liang per month?"
Li Yuanqing smiles, "roughly. Big brother, you and I have a lot of labor now. Apart from farming, we must make good use of these manpower. If we go to Mongolia, we will have more horses. Even if we don't, I won't hurt our foundation if you take charge of southern Liaoning. "
Chen Zhong also understood Li Yuanqing's meaning, "Yuanqing, don't worry. If I'm here, the southern part of Liaoning will be as strong as gold. "Seeing that Chen Zhong was finally moved, Li Yuanqing could not help but breathe a sigh of relief. As long as Chen Zhong could stabilize the southern part of Liaoning Province and he was in front of him, he would have no worries about his future.
……
Three days later, Li Yuanqing and his party arrived at Changsheng Island, while Chen Zhong continued to return to Guanglu island.
The news that Li Yuanqing was promoted to be the commander-in-chief had already been sent back to Changsheng island by the Clippers. At this time, Li Yuanqing returned, and the island became a sea of joy. Tens of thousands of people had been waiting at the wharf for Li Yuanqing's smooth return.
Wan'er, who has been covered with a veil, was shocked by this scene. She did not expect that Li Yuanqing was so popular in Changsheng island.
Seeing Zhang yunniang and Qu minqiu surrounded by the crowd, how dare Wan'er ignore her? Hastily by the maid to support, came to two people in front of salute kowtow.
"My servant Wan'er, I have met the first lady, the second lady and the third lady."
Wan'er's posture is very low. Although Caizi is not very impressive, she is still respectful and polite.
Zhang yunniang will be full-term soon, and her stomach is already very big. She nods to Wan'er with a smile, but she doesn't make an immediate statement.
On one side, Qu minqiu smiles, "is this sister Wan'er? It's really a beautiful country. Come on, get up. The wind is strong at the wharf. Let's go to the inner room and talk
Qu minqiu helps Wan'er up in a hurry and pulls her to speak with a smile.
Before, she and Zhang yunniang have reached a tacit agreement, first look at this brothel top born Waner is what temperament.
If you have a good disposition, follow the process.
If the disposition is not good, what they say will not let Wan'er into the door.
But at this time, Wan'er is reasonable and does not have the coquetry of a woman of the world. On the contrary, she is cute and attractive. Qu minqiu has already fallen in love with her.
Although Zhang yunniang had some helplessness, she also understood that, in her elder brother's identity, she did not know how many women wanted to enter the house, so she had to learn to accept it.
Fortunately, Wan'er is not bad, but also makes her feel a little better.
Several carriages had already been prepared nearby. Zhang yunniang took the lead in getting on the first one. Qu minqiu, Wan'er and Caizi were the first ones. Behind them were a large group of servant girls, who led them back to the official residence.
At this time, Li Yuanqing did not care much about the affairs of the back house. He stood on the temporary platform on the wharf and warmly waved to his people.
"Generals, princes and princes, Wandai!"
"Long life, general!"
"General..."
Looking at this dense figure under the body, a cheering and encouraging face, the smile on Li Yuanqing's face is more and more real.
Like the PiDao founded by Mao Wenlong himself, Changsheng island was built step by step from scratch.
All the people on the island are his private property, which is closely related to his interests.
At this time, he has become the commander-in-chief of Changsheng island. Will the future be far away?
……
The welcoming ceremony lasted for more than an hour, and it was a long time for Li Yuanqing to get away and return to the official hall.
Shang Laoliu and Ma housekeeper followed him and began to report to Li Yuanqing about the work on the island during this period and the preparations for Li Yuanqing's wedding.
It took less than half a month for Li Yuanqing to go to the capital, and there was no other business on the island for the time being. But Zhang yunniang was about to be full-term, and Li Yuanqing's wedding could no longer be delayed.
"Yuanqing, it's almost the end of June. Yunniang will give birth in early August. We must advance the date of marriage. Otherwise, when Yun Niang is in confinement, she will be delayed. What's more, it's not good for Yun Niang's reputation. "
Shang Laoliu was busy on his way.
At this time, Li Yuanqing was already a commander in chief and a great member of the class. Although he was only a military officer, his inheritance was the most concerned issue of all people in Changsheng island.
At present, the marriage of Li Yuanqing and the production of Zhang yunniang are the most important events in Changsheng Island, which can even rank ahead of all military affairs.
Li Yuanqing nodded slowly.
The reason why the marriage should be carried out in a big way, Li Yuanqing also had a thorough consideration.
The main reason is that he is so poor now that he will not miss all the opportunities to make money.
And marriage is an excellent starting point.
"What's a good day in July?" Li Yuanqing looks at Shang Laoliu.
Shang Laoliu said: "I have already discussed with housekeeper Ma, either on the eighth day of July or on the eighteenth of July. Yuanqing, we should also give these guests some preparation time. I think it's July 18. "
Li Yuanqing nodded, "OK. It's up to you. "
The most important day was set, and Shang Laoliu and Ma housekeeper did not dare to disturb Li Yuanqing's rest any more, so they left in a hurry.
Lying on the familiar chair, Li Yuanqing rubbed his temple a little tired.
At this time, he is no longer alone. There are too many things that must be planned before moving.The best way to stand up against the tide in the coming spring tide is to "accumulate a lot of money and make a little hair". Just like the nine character truth of Zhu Yuanzhang, "build a high wall, accumulate more grain, and be king slowly."!
Long spit out a breath of turbid gas, at this time, Li Yuanqi suddenly found that usually the most familiar pair of small hands, unexpectedly not around.
"Lotus root? What about lotus root? " Li Yuanqing yelled.
For a moment, lotus root's petite figure appears in the field of vision, but angrily turns his head and does not go to see Li Yuanqing.
Li Yuanqing a Leng, a moment to react to come over, not from a smile, "what's the matter? Is the little girl angry? "
Lotus root son pouts up small mouth intentionally not to see Li Yuanqing, "maidservant how dare to be angry with general? The general side has so beautiful fox Mei son accompany, how can you remember lotus root this little girl? "
Li Yuanqing couldn't help laughing. He held lotus root in his arms, his forehead pressed her forehead and said, "worried?"
Lotus root son pretty face instantly a blush, "bah, bah! Who is in a hurry? The maidservant is just afraid that someone will be bewitched by the fox. She will not even know her family
Li Yuanqing burst out laughing, took her delicate body, close to her ear and said: "the five madams of Changsheng Island, can't be others."
Lotus root son not from big joy, but busy a push Li Yuanqing, "hate to die. The eldest lady asked me to inform the master that dinner is ready
With a smile, Li Yuanqing pinched her delicate waist and strode towards the back hall dining room.
