The young and vigorous Zheng Jicheng immediately pushed back the words.

"Lord Overseer, this is a remarkable military reorganization. ”

"Shouldn't it be placed on the Shandong Military Conference, where the current chiefs of various ministries sit together and discuss and vote together?"

"Overseer Zhang, you have to know what the duties and powers of the Overseers are. ”

"Although you are the highest military governor sent to Shandong by the new government, you only have more voting power, formulation power and suggestion power on certain matters, and your rights have not yet reached the point where you can control most of the army in Shandong by your own decision. ”

"You must know that the real controllers of our Shandong armies are our local generals in Shandong, they are not the troops of the new northern government, and they are not the team of you, Zhang Zongchang, a newcomer to the overseer. ”

"What if you can get the most votes in the military assembly to support your resolution?"

"Then no problem, we don't want Shandong, which is still stable, to fall into a chaotic civil war, as long as we have more than half of the votes, our Zheng family's troops are willing to support Zhang Dujun's decision. ”

"But if most of the generals don't agree with the Overseer's somewhat aggressive plan......"

"Then I'm sorry, Zhang Dujun, you also have to consider the opinions of the big guys, you can't just go your own way and eventually cause a mutiny, right?"

Zheng Jicheng felt that he was already crazy, but in this Shandong, he also knew that some people and certain things were untouchable.

Originally, Zheng Jicheng thought that for Zhang Zongchang, their Zheng family was the existence that the new governor could not touch.

It's like the previous Overseers, which one didn't have a deep cooperation with their Zheng family.

Although each family had the intention of annexing the local Zheng army, none of the Overseers could stay until the day of success.

This shows the strength of their Zheng family's army and the loyalty of their generals.

Why did you come to Zhang Zongchang, so different from others?

This made the young Zheng Jicheng feel offended.

However, Zheng Jinsheng, who was old and serious, did not express any anger, but just smiled and responded to the opinions expressed by his son.

"Zhang Dujun, don't be too anxious about this matter. ”

"Look at you, the family has never settled properly, so after the expansion of the mansion is completed, I will meet these people in the army. ”

"If we have any ideas, let's put them at the army alliance meeting. ”

"You see that the military department is in charge of logistics, the one in charge of deploying defense on the front line, the military observers sent by the new government, and the leaders of the intelligence department who collect information in other places, have you not seen this?"

"You gather all the big guys, have a meeting, and put forward any suggestions and ideas at the meeting for everyone to vote on. ”

"After all, the people's livelihood and economy in Shandong depend on us soldiers to protect and maintain. ”

"The consequences of your every move are not comparable to those you could have in a small jurisdiction. ”

"As a provincial overseer, you must be cautious in everything you say and do. ”

"That's it, Overseer, you go and get your own business done first, and then we'll talk about the rest of the work. ”

After saying this, Zheng Jinsheng, an old thing, patted Zhang Zongchang on the shoulder very naturally, just like a generous elder comforting an ignorant junior, full of helplessness.

Zheng Jinsheng patted Zhang Zongchang on the shoulder, and without waiting for him to react, he took his son and left.

Zhang Zongchang, who was alone with a wine glass, was stunned on the spot, and it took a long time to react from this scene.

Hey, what does that mean?

This is to eat him, he has no choice but to be Zheng Lao'er, right, with the old spectrum to him as an ancestor here, right?

Zhang Zongchang gritted his teeth and gurgled, which made several people who passed by him and wanted to come over to set up a few hesitations.

They didn't know why Zhang Zongchang was suddenly agitated, but they felt that the temper of the new overseer was not easy to get along with.

Therefore, this night's reception banquet can be described as bleak for Zhang Zongchang.

But for Shao Nianshi and Wang Shuzi, who were finally able to get together openly, it was a good opportunity to meet again.

"How is it, Shao Nianshi, are you afraid?"

The two of them hid in the living room on the side of the hall for the guests to rest, and pressed the lock on the outside of the door, and the two of them came together face to face with a sofa.

After Shao Nianshi poured himself a glass of sparkling champagne, he began to answer Wang Nianzi's question: "Don't be afraid, you Wang Zuozi are not afraid, what am I afraid of Shao Nianshi." ”

"You were originally the widow's door, and you were the one who made the mistake, if he Zhang Zongchang was not afraid to expose his old bottom for the people of Shandong to come to admire, then even if I was tossed to death by him when I was Shao Nian, I would have nothing to say. ”

In these years, I have never seen a person who makes a mistake so right.

Wang Shuzi was really stupid and bold when he saw Shao Nian, he was a little surprised: "I didn't expect you to be really not afraid, let me tell you, since I knew that he was coming, my heart was up and down." ”

"How did you feel when you saw him today?"

Shao Nianshi's subordinates were stunned: "More shameless?"

"Yes!" Wang Shuzi slapped his thigh, because he was wearing a gray military uniform, he wanted to look good and fit, so the weather was already cold, and he didn't add a pair of cotton pants to it, he was so excited that he snapped out a crisp sound, and he grinned and hissed twice, endured the pain and continued: "Yes, I think he is too different from when he was in Qiu Village." ”

"Have you become more scoundrel and gloomy?"

"No, not only that, I think he's a little arrogant, a little crazy. ”

"What can I say, in my mother's words, that is, the poor man is rich, he can't hold his back, and he shows off everywhere, lest others don't know his ability. ”

"Such a person is very scary, and I feel that I have lost the face of Qiu Village inexplicably. ”

This is a little fresh, and Shao Nianshi looked at Wang Shuzi with a little surprise.

As far as he knew, wasn't this lord just like his eldest brother a representative of unlearned and unskilled?

Now that you're starting to know the etiquette?

It was too much of a surprise to him.

This Wang Shuzi was looked at by Shao Nianshi, and he was still a little embarrassed on his face, and said to Shao Nianshi with some momentum: "What's the matter, you are only allowed to go to that high school, and you are not happy to let me go up?"

"I, no, I learned a lot of words from my daughter-in-law at home, thousand-character text, thousand-character text, I can memorize the whole book. ”

"Now if you want to read the newspaper or anything, you don't need to read it to me. ”

"I know all the words, and I can read them all. ”

"My daughter-in-law said that you have to be honest and shameful to achieve great things. Everything you say and do must be consistent with your identity. ”

"Don't look at me as a stinky soldier, but I still know clearly the most important faith and right and wrong of our Shandong people. ”

"If I don't talk about it, I won't attract the eyes of others, you see me now, it's not very good. ”

I just want to laugh when I hear Shao Nian, and the rumor that I heard a while ago that Head Wang is a man who is afraid of his wife must be true.

After saying this, even though the two of them were sitting in a relatively private box, Wang Shuzi still subconsciously turned his head towards Shao Nian's place.

"Besides, my daughter-in-law, you also know what her background is, right?"

"Don't hide it from you, just a few days ago, I asked people to get in touch with her father. ”

Well?

When Shao Nianshi heard this, he consciously leaned towards the place where Wang Shuzi was: "But that former overseer Zhang Huaizhi?

Speaking of this, Wang Shuzi actually brought a little pride: "My father-in-law is now in Tianjin, what kind of garden area or something, anyway, he plans to retire from the military department and not engage in the army of Laoshizi." ”

"Ah!" Shao Nianshi frowned slightly, then this momentum could not be borrowed.

Wang Shuzi didn't feel a pity, because it was like this, he was not a bandit, and the head of the garrison with only 5,000 usable soldiers under his hands could be accepted by Zhang Huaizhi's Zhang family, and was willing to follow the formal relationship between the two families.

According to the power of his father-in-law in the past few months, if he rashly went to the door to confess his relatives, I am afraid that he would not be treated as well as he is now.

"How?"

Shao Nian really didn't know much about the alternation of the army, as a fledgling businessman who was dedicated to preparing his factory, he could only come into contact with the military forces at the level of Wang Shuzi, Chu Shanzhi and Chu Shao Jun in Guangzhou.

No matter how high-level he is, he can't even know the thoughts of the Shandong Overseer, let alone the former former Overseer Zhang Huaizhi who is far away in Tianjin.

And the Wang Shuzi who was asked really regarded Shao Nianshi as a close friend who could confide in some secrets.

When he talked to Shao Nianshi about the recent situation on his father-in-law's side, he didn't just talk about it, because of some things in his father-in-law's family, he still had some selfish intentions in his heart.

So, when he explained to Shao Nianshi, he became more and more careful.

"My father-in-law, who was a general of the army in the northern government half a year ago, was awarded the title of General Feng Wei. ”

But after the war began, the direct family was defeated and retreated, which caused the position of the father-in-law who stood on the direct side to become more and more embarrassing. ”

"He is already sixty-two this year, and seeing that Wu Peifu's authority has been transferred to Duan Qirui's hands, it is difficult for him, the supreme commander of the army, to occupy his original position anymore. ”

"As a senior, or a failed old-timer, if you don't know how to be interested, I'm afraid you're going to lose your life. ”

"Thanks to my father-in-law's good connections over the years, there are also a few people who come out and say a few words for him in front of the new government authorities, just let him hand over power and retire. ”

"He can still keep those false titles in the past, let him retire, and no one in the local area dares to provoke him at will. ”

"No, my father-in-law is also a person who can collect money, so he chose a place in Tianjin where there are mountains and rivers, and while engaging in his industrial and commercial investment, he built a garden for his retirement. ”

"This retired person, although the connections are still proud, and the government can have some face, but the taste of having no soldiers and no guns in his hands can only be understood by those of us who have led soldiers. ”

"His sons and sons-in-law are not very capable people.

can't support too many troops, and only mixes up a brigade commander or a garrison.

Now, a concubine he thought had died in office, suddenly came back to life.

Not only did he contact his own family, but he also had a slightly fierce son-in-law of the regiment commander who was killed with a real knife and a real gun.

You say, if you were my old father-in-law, how would you feel in your heart?"

I can't wait to give it to my ancestors, no matter how bad it is, I will welcome you warmly, and I will give it to a family that loves each other.

"So, hehe, who of me told you, after I got in touch with my father-in-law, inexplicably, I am not afraid of him Zhang Dengguan. ”

"Don't look at my father-in-law's retirement, but his direct army hasn't been completely dispersed. ”

"As warlords of all stripes who fight when the advantage is good and what is not, maybe when they will be able to unite with the current government and unite against the enemy outside. ”

"In addition, my father-in-law's base camp is located in Beijing and Tianjin, if that lamp official really wants to trouble me, I will take the team to the mountains, let everyone lie dormant, and secretly send my daughter-in-law to my father-in-law's house, so that I can take care of her. ”

Wang Shuzi didn't say what he was going to do when he sent his daughter-in-law away, but he didn't have to think about it to know that without worries, he could fight with Zhang Zongchang with open arms.

Thinking of this, Shao Nian was convinced and gave a thumbs up to Wang Shuzi, but in the next moment, Wang Shuzi grabbed the finger he stretched out.

"Also, Shao Nianshi, do you want to find my father-in-law and make some friendships with each other?"

Shao Nian was stunned for a moment, and forgot to pull out his fingers.

What does that mean? I'm waiting for you to say that.

"Do you remember what I just said, the old man has settled in Tianjin? He has a lot of spare money in his hands, so he wants to switch to the battlefield of industry and commerce. ”

"It's just that the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region is a place where soldiers must fight, and the northern government is set up in Beiping, which has its good side and naturally its bad side. ”

"Let's start with a few major industries and industries that have already been occupied over there. ”

"Just the Qinggang forces over there, where the Nine Gates are located, are enough for those who engage in business to eat a pot. ”

"My father-in-law used to be in a high position, and he couldn't pull his face to fight the famine with these ruffians. ”

"For the sake of two taels of silver, he can't afford to lose this man. ”

So he put the direction of investment outside, Shandong, which is close and has not fought too many battles, has not fallen into the eyes of the old man. ”
