"Chu Zhaodong, the word Jingxiong, born in the first year of Guangxu, a native of Langya, Shandong, his ancestral home is Sanshui, Guangdong, when he was young, he was a martial arts officer in the imperial examination, and was later recommended by his uncle to go to Germany to study military affairs. During the Sino-Japanese First Sino-Japanese War, he once returned to China to participate in the war, but was rejected by Li Zhongtang because no one recommended him. Later, he served in the German Navy, from a midshipman engineer officer, to the captain of the Perth, in the eighth year of the Republic to the tenth year of the Republic had sunk seventeen Allied merchant ships, totaling 270,000 tons, and also sank a destroyer of the Canadian Navy, and then was surrounded on the coast of West Africa, after being forced to sink himself, he and the German Navy on the ship crossed the Sahara to Egypt, trying to go to Turkey to return to Germany, but were discovered by the British-controlled Egyptian customs, he planned to hijack a merchant ship to Greece, but he himself was sent to a prisoner of war camp by the British, I only put it back last year. I heard that when I was a public servant in Tianjin, I wrote something from time to time, criticizing our Ministry of Defense for not understanding coastal defense and the like. The revolutionary party had contacted him before, but he scolded him, and on the 17th of last month, General Feng Rufeng sent an adjutant to Tianjin, but he was not moved. "Sure enough, he is the director of the Unified Investigation Bureau who monitors the world, and thanks to the fact that this Chu Zhaodong is too special, Yu Jian quickly understood the situation of this Chu Zhaodong, and gave the boss a brief introduction in less than half a day.

"It seems that he is a knowledgeable person, Lao Feng's vision is good." Wu Chenxuan muttered in a low voice, but seeing that Yu Jian didn't seem to finish speaking, Wu Chenxuan nodded and motioned for Yu Jian to continue.

"General seat, this Chu Zhaodong brother also had a little deal with General Counselor Duan." Yu Jian said with a smile

Seeing Yu Jian's embarrassed expression, Wu Chenxuan also understood that it was probably not a good thing between the two of them, "Let's talk about it, it's rare to be an acquaintance of General Staff Duan." ”

"This is the twenty-sixth year of Guangxu, Chu Zhaodong went to Beijing to do business because Germany sold warships to the Qing State, and Mr. Duan set up a banquet at home because of his experience of studying in Germany. When the wine was half-drunk, Duan Qirui introduced Chu Zhaodong to the guests as the second mate of the German Navy, and asked him to come out and tell everyone. Chu Zhaodong said: "When I was young, I planned to practice artillery skills to fight the East, but now it seems that the Qing Kingdom wants to fight with the East, so I can only rely on bullets. So he went to the courtyard and said to the crowd in front of a pot of goldfish, "I'll hit that flower tail as if I were wearing a kimono." "Just listen to the sound of "bang", the fish dies, and the tank breaks. The fish in the tank is Mr. Duan's favorite thing, but Duan Qirui can't say anything in front of the guests, and after the guests leave, Duan Qirui scolded Chu Zhaodong for being a barbarian for a long time, and his wild nature is difficult to change. ”

"Oh, what else is going on?" Wu Chenxuan heard about this for the first time: "Where did this General Staff offend this old brother Chu?" ”

"Pondering about his humble duties, probably because the Qing court at that time wantonly cut the military spending of the Han people, and was not concerned about the reconstruction of the Beiyang Naval Division, and this Chu Zhaodong was anxious to be ashamed of the first day of the afternoon, so he naturally hated this policy of ignoring naval construction. At that time, General Staff Duan was the director of the Beiyang Promotion and Dispatch Department, and was in charge of the issue of Beiyang military expenditure and troop arrangement, which Chu Zhaodong probably thought that General Staff Duan ignored the reconstruction of the Beiyang Naval Division for the sake of the army's guns, so he deliberately lost face to General Staff Duan. ”

"This guy is quite interesting." Wu Chenxuan was amused when he heard it, this is really a simple naval person, yes, this guy is really direct enough to offend people, but such a lonely minister is a good material in the eyes of the superiors. "What is he doing in Tianjin now?"

"After being released by the British last year, he used the proceeds of looting merchant ships to buy a residential building in Xinhe, Tianjin, and became a big landlord. This year, he worked as a part-time lecturer at the Maritime School of the Chamber of Commerce in Tianjin, teaching surveying and navigation and navigation. ”

"So, what about my employees?" Wu Chenxuan remembered that the Tianjin Chamber of Commerce Navigation School seemed to be a branch of Qingdao Maritime School, and Qingdao Maritime School was 45% owned by his Standard Shipping, so this Chu Zhaodong could be regarded as his employee.

"Sort of, but this person is arrogant and has an extreme temperament, I think even if General Feng comes to the door in person, he may not be able to give face." Yu Jian has a lot of dealings with this kind of person, and some capable guys just can't get used to their Xinhua Party's style, and they are unwilling to come out to take office, so Director Yu Da has to worry about it. But this Chu Zhaodong is soft and hard, and he is a lonely man with no wife and no children, he is hard-boned, not afraid of death, and rich, if he wants to threaten him, he has no place to speak. Of course, if it is to make him soft, it is not difficult, Yu Jian has already dispatched two female field workers under him, if it really doesn't work, he can also make an immortal jump and use his reputation as a threat, but looking at the appearance of the boss, it seems that he has a bit of a Bole Xiangma meaning to this person, Yu Jian quickly wrote down and turned around and revoked the action order, so as not to really become a colleague and not see each other.

"Talent, a bit of personality is inevitable. Feng Ru may not have a good reputation, and I don't know if I can let this old man Chu see it in my eyes. Wu Chenxuan was tempted again.

"Soza, you're going to go in person..."

"Yes, I haven't been to Tianjin Wei for many years, so it's better to eat ear and eye fried cakes again." Wu Chenxuan had an expression of being intoxicated with food, Yu Jian pursed his lips, and said to himself, Your boss has not been to many places for many years, what kind of reason is it to want to eat fried cakes. However, being rich is capricious, and this Boss Wu is powerful and rich, so he is naturally even more capricious.

Yu Jian was busy arranging the guards without mentioning it, and Wu Chenxuan and the three elders took their wives and children on a trip to Tianjin with a little bit of excitement. Along the way, the father-son shootout between Wu Dagongzi and Wu Daguan was inseparable in the armored compartment of the float, the laser pointer was equipped with water bombs, and the two fought the whole carriage of fireworks, and finally Wu Dagongzi, who was covered with bullet marks, was taken to take a bath by the wet nurse, and Wu Chenxuan, who took off his blouse, and Mrs. Wang Zijin sang a lullaby to the little daughter who was dedicated to spitting bubbles, so that the little devil star fell asleep.

Because Mrs. had a paper to be delivered in a hurry, Wu Daguan had to be expelled to the guard carriage where the attendants were staying to call and listen to the reports from various departments, rubbing his arm that was a little numb and crispy by Mrs. elbow, and muttering, "Isn't it just a nickname for the baby, as for being ruthless." ”

"What are you?" Feng Ru happened to be waiting in the attendant room, and when he saw the chief seat rubbing his arm and coming out, he couldn't help but ask.

"Da Fei, you tell me how cute I see my girl spitting bubbles, and ask if I want to give my girl a nickname Crab, who provoked who with this trick, alas, it's really a disaster."

Feng Ruxin said that you are still recruiting who to provoke, and it is good to provoke the main mother, and I really dare to say that these henchmen know that the boss is respectful to the lady, and the lady treats her second daughter as if she were the meat of her heart, and the boss himself dares to call him a crab, and it is strange not to be beaten by the mother.

"Report to the general seat, I have already contacted the sea school, Chu Zhaodong is teaching at the school, today and tomorrow, do you think we should go to his house or meet him at school?" Feng Ru hurriedly reported the situation, lest he say the wrong thing and offend the master's mother. The scientific and technological resources in the hands of the master mother would be miserable if they were not tilted towards them.

"Oh, that's good. Then let's go to Quanye Field first, have lunch, and then post a post to visit Chu Zhaodong's Mansion tomorrow. Wu Chenxuan smiled and patted Feng Ru on the shoulder, this may be one of the few "pure" scientists and generals who have no faction. The Wehrmacht Navy has nothing in common with any other navy of this era except for a name, so whether it is a naval background or not has no meaning for controlling the Wehrmacht Navy, but the future status of the Navy determines that Wu Chenxuan will not let any faction put their hands into the Navy, Feng Ru As an overseas Chinese inventor, a general who only cares about the country's strength and the new branches on the science and technology tree, he is suitable as the starter of the Navy, but it is far from the best choice, and that unruly, Chu Zhaodong, who is a little slippery, is very much in line with Wu Chenxuan's positioning as the head of the navy.

On the second floor of the Furuitai Teahouse, a tea doctor who couldn't cry or laugh watched this table of guests who were obviously dignitaries and dignitaries around a table of fried cakes, donkeys rolling, laughing, sour slag cakes, and rock sugar gourds eating happily, and soldiers brought cages of Goubuli buns to the second floor, turning a casual teahouse into a roadside stall. However, for the sake of the reward and the face of a row of gun-wielding guards, Dr. Tea still felt that it was the most correct choice to do his job well and talk less and see less.

There was a commotion, and Wu Chenxuan listened attentively, it was a group of students downstairs who had an argument with the junior in the teahouse. "Why don't you let us go up to the third floor, we don't owe you rent, that's our newspaper." A girl is very pleasant and loud.

"Grandma, grandma, I beg you." The shopkeeper has gone out, he has been in the rivers and lakes for a long time, his eyes are vicious, the family on this upstairs seems to be easy-going, the children are crazy to play, and the adults are leisurely, but the entourage is cautious and respectful, and the guards are even more shrewd and capable. I didn't dare to say anything and let these aunts and grandmothers go upstairs to disturb the guests.

But the more he stopped, the more curious the young female students became, and the two sides were arguing with each other, and a secretary of the chamberlain's room hurriedly came down from upstairs, asked about the situation, and came forward to explain, so as to coax these little girls away. Unexpectedly, within a few words, she was caught up in a girl who seemed to be knowledgeable but quirky, and she was sweating profusely.

Wang Zijin was originally breastfeeding his good daughter and was coaxing her to sleep, but when he heard the noise downstairs, he simply got up, looked at the Wu father and son who were fighting for fried cakes with each other, and was slightly happy, so he went downstairs to watch.

"Didn't you just agree with me and say that everyone is equal?" A girl with short hair with her ears was pointing at Secretary Zou's nose with her feet crossed, debating with Secretary Zou who was sweating profusely, "Then why do you say that there are distinguished guests up there and it is inconvenient to disturb?" We are also guests of this teahouse, or regular customers of the room on the third floor, you say that your guests are distinguished guests, are we cheap guests? Then this guest is divided into high and low, and people are divided into ranks, aren't you contradicting yourself? ”
