Chapter Seventy-Five: Returning Home
Mingyue and Xue Ying came to Tamna Island easily, and Zhao Hao planned to take them to ski, soak in soup or something, but it was not worth the trip. But when I asked, I found out that because this was a place of exile, the dignitaries of the Li Dynasty would never come here for entertainment, and they had not developed these two projects at all.
And I don't know if it is affected by the Xiaoice River, this ghost place has a big wind thief in winter, and it is cold, and there is no awareness of the subtropical marine climate at all. There was no shopping mall, so it could be said that it was not attractive to the girls, so everyone unanimously decided to go home immediately.
The next day, the Royal Shipping fleet completed loading and unloading, and Zhao Hao and the girls also came to Pier No. 1 by car. When he got out of the car and was about to board the ship, he saw a man wearing a coast guard robe and carrying a large backpack, and his guards were far away from the dock.
"What's the situation?" Zhao Hao couldn't help but wonder that the coast guards all acted collectively, and it was rare to see anyone alone.
Gao Wu gestured with his eyes, and a guard hurriedly ran to inquire, and came back to report that it was a first-class police officer on leave who wanted to take a boat back to the mainland. The guards told him to wait for Childe to board the ship before asking about the other ships.
"Get him on board." Zhao Hao ordered with interest. At present, first-class police officers are rare, and they are rarer than police officers. And it's also a first-class police officer who can take such an early leave.
After a while, the police officer was taken aboard the Oriental Beauty by the guards after being carefully searched. Xu was brutally groped all over his body, his expression was very bad, but when he saw the young man standing on the deck clearly, the police officer straightened up with his feet like an electric shock, and performed a standard police salute.
"Good day, Chief Superintendent!"
"Excuse me." Zhao Hao glanced at him a little strangely, and when he saw that he was not good-looking, dark and thin, but his eyes were bright, he knew that he was his own police officer. "You know me?"
Zhao Gongzi was dressed as a rich man today, but he didn't wear his police robe. He was not so inflated that his portrait would be hung on every boat, and an ordinary police officer like this would supposedly not recognize him.
"Back to the chief police commissioner, at the oath meeting last month, I was awarded a medal on stage!" The officer replied proudly: "I saw the chief superintendent at that time, and I will never forget it!" ”
"Haha, you're pretty good at talking, what's your name?" Zhao Hao pulled away his dark blue coat and saw that there were already two rows of honors on the chest of the police uniform inside.
"My name is Chu Liuxiang!" The officer quickly replied.
"Oh, I've heard of you." Zhao Gongzi slapped his forehead and said suddenly: "You are the cannon king under him." ”
"I didn't make any meritorious contributions in this war...... Chu Liuxiang lowered his head with a look of shame when he heard this, and said, "I took two seniority medals." ”
One of them is the 'Kyushu Punishment Battle Medal' and the other is the 'Long Voyage Medal'...... It was awarded to police officers who have been at sea for more than 200 days. In his opinion, these two are big road goods, and they are hardly worth mentioning.
"That's a good thing...... It shows that the soldiers are strong, and there is no need for individual heroes. Zhao Gongzi patted him on the shoulder with a smile.
'This is a good thing......' has almost become Zhao Hao's mantra. I don't know if there is nothing bad in his eyes, or if luck is good, just meet a good thing.
"By the way, why did you take a vacation so early?" Zhao Hao glanced behind him. There, the guards were taking out the contents of Chu Liuxiang's backpack for inspection. Not only was he worried that he would plot against him, but also for the sake of safety on the ship, and he could not bring flammable and explosive materials on board.
"I want to go home and marry my daughter-in-law, but I'm worried that I won't be able to catch up with the New Year when it's late." Chu Liuxiang blushed and explained: "The fleet applied for a vacation as soon as it returned to the base, and it happened that a ship from the Marine Police Department was going back to Xingang, so I followed here." ”
"Then why are you still there?" Zhao Hao looked at him again, and listened to Chu Liuxiang's meaning, not to mention that he had stayed in Xingang for five or six days. Could it be that Tang Fatty's entertainment industry has been put into trial operation?
"I only found out when I came that not every day there is a boat to go back, I have to wait for the ship to leave." Chu Liuxiang said with a depressed face: "Just wait at the dock until today." "Five days of precious vacation were wasted, and it was a shame for everyone.
"You've been at the docks?" Zhao Hao was stunned. "Where do you stay?"
"There is a police station with a water police station," Chu Liuxiang pointed to the small house not far away and said: "I can talk about it, and I promised to help them clean up their housekeeping, so I agreed to stay for a few days." ”
Saying that, he said indignantly: "You have to let me pay for the food by myself!" ”
"Why don't you go to the guest house?" Zhao Hao asked strangely, "Haven't you opened it yet?" ”
"I don't know, I didn't ask." Chu Liuxiang said: "I'm so big, I haven't lived in an inn yet." When I fled with my mother from Shandong to Beijing, I slept in the wilderness, so I didn't waste money in vain. ”
"Then what are you doing with your money?" Zhao Hao asked with a smile.
"Get down to business."
"Is marrying a daughter-in-law the right thing?"
Chu Liuxiang said as a matter of course: "My mother's greatest wish is to let me marry a daughter-in-law." In our village, being able to marry a daughter-in-law is the biggest thing! ”
"Is it hard to marry a daughter-in-law?" Zhao Hao put his hands behind his back and looked at the warbler Yanyan on the deck of the stern. What is so good about getting married? Is it bad to be single?
"It's hard, it's too hard. Who will follow you if you can't eat? I don't have a sister to change my wife, if it weren't for God's blessing, I went to the mine and joined the security team, and became a coast guard again, and I was designated to fight a bachelor in this life! Chu Liuxiang couldn't help wiping his tears as he spoke: "Son's great kindness, I can't repay me as a cow and a horse in this life!" ”
"Hahaha!" Zhao Hao likes to hear this, he laughed loudly: "This Hanna Mountain has cows and horses, I don't need you to be a cow and a horse, practice the artillery skills to perfection, and bring me more small cannon kings out, which is the best reward!" ”
"Yes!" Chu Liuxiang put his legs together and responded excitedly. He suddenly felt that his low mood was swept away, and his fighting spirit was rekindled.
'After the vacation, I'll come back to class!' Chu Liuxiang gritted his teeth secretly, the police cannon king must be me, and no one can snatch it away!
"Brother Gao, find him a place to live." Zhao Hao raised his hand and fanned the wind, and ordered: "Hurry up and take a good bath, this winter is all rancid." ”
"Hey, it's ......" Chu Liuxiang blushed shyly, and secretly decided that he would take a bath every day in the future and be the cleanest cannon king......
~~
In the morning, the flotilla left Tamna Island.
On the return journey, there are ocean currents to send you off, and you can sail directly west from Xingang to the coast of Daming. Then follow the coastal cold current all the way south, and you can return to the mouth of the Yangtze River. Combined with the all-present north winds of this season, it only takes two days. Of course, when it comes to the return trip, it will be troublesome, the currents and the wind will be delayed, and it will take five or six days to arrive.
In the luxurious captain's room of the Oriental Beauty, a silver incense ball is lit with precious ambergris, and the soothing sound of the piano comes from next door.
Zhao Hao and Jiang Xueying sat on a two-seater sofa, there was no third person in the room, and President Jiang shyly leaned his head on his shoulder.
At this time, Ma Xianglan was teaching Qiaoqiao to play the piano in the cabin next door, and Zhang Xiaojing did not get on the Oriental Princess at all, but followed Chen Huaixiu on her 'Yuntong' and continued to learn sailing.
Li Mingyue also followed Zhang Xiaojing on the Yuntong number, saying that she was afraid that Xiaojing would be lonely. But in fact, she deliberately gave up this voyage to Jiang Xueying.
After all, Zhao Hao has been with her a lot this year, and the two only separated in September. After Jiang Xueying and Zhao Hao separated at the end of February, they didn't see each other again. The little county lord demands himself with the standard of an eldest woman, so he naturally wants to send a favor to Xue Ying's 'sister'......
Jiang Xueying couldn't care about intriguing with Li Mingyue anymore, so she accepted her love.
She hadn't seen her brother for almost a year, and she was almost lovesick.
When did the longing begin? From the moment when Zhao Hao said the sentence 'Treat your long hair to your waist, it's good for me to come back and marry you' when they parted on February 25, this cold and indifferent girl tasted 'Farewell to the Ecstasy for the first time in her life; Those who are more ecstasy will only miss the taste of '.
"It's been a long time, it's like nine years......"
"May I see where your hair is?"
"Brother, we'll never be separated, okay?"
"Don't worry, you can't beat my ......"
For a morning, the two leaned their heads on each other, talking about sensual love, and telling each other their heartfelt feelings.
But the problem with these two people is that they will talk about business when they talk. Later, the topic returned to Jiangnan Group.
In fact, except for the inconvenience of contact during Zhao Hao's trip to Japan, the two basically maintained a rhythm of communication every three days...... Of course, Zhao Hao's letters were ghostwritten by Ma Xianglan. So they know more about each other's affairs than when they were together.
This year, both of them did a good job, and Zhao Hao completed the most critical shipping of grain, and obtained the right to free trade for the group. He also took Tamna Island and temporarily monopolized trade with Japan. So far, at least, it's been a fruitful and perfect year, and we've even advanced most of next year's plans.
President Jiang's side is not inferior. It was under her command that the group was able to realize its potential so quickly, burst out with a strong production capacity, and ...... warships, sailors, artillery, ammunition, and military supplies A steady stream of shipments to overseas supported Zhao Gongzi's ambitions in Tamna in Japan.
Moreover, she also foiled the conspiracy of the Caoyun Group to defeat the Jiangnan Group by running on the Jiangnan Bank. Zhao Hao's military merit medal is definitely half of hers.
"By the way, that shopkeeper of Song didn't produce any more moths, right?" Zhao Hao played with Jiang Xueying's hair and asked softly.
"How can he take care of it?" Jiang Xueying smiled softly: "Last month, Hengtongji closed the last money village south of the Yangtze River and returned to Jiangbei. ”
"It's not going to be easy to go back, is it?" Zhao Gongzi sniffed the rose and said.
"Of course. Caoyun is still in a state of cut-off, and the merchants who originally pointed to the canal couldn't care about the face of the Caoyun Yamen, and lined up to ask the royal sea to help transport the goods. Jiang Xueying smiled faintly and said: "In the future, even if Cao Yuntong passes, these people will not be able to go back." ”
