Section 71 Reconstruction

The sedan chair went all the way to Huifu Street. Qiwei Dart Bureau organized a large number of dart divisions to accompany the team to escort, and every time they arrived at a street corner, they set off Gao Sheng and the 10,000-character whip. Sun Kecheng took the dart masters to wear a unified new uniform, and personally lined up behind to follow on foot, with a look of raising his eyebrows.

Since Sun Kecheng burned Wuyangyi by the navy, he had been clamping his tail and being a man, and he was able to get rid of the situation of pretending to be his grandson, and after the secret agreement between the two sides was signed, the Qiwei Dart Bureau trembled. He had been holding back his strength for a long time to wait for Guo Dongzhu to come back so that he could show off.

The team arrived at Dehuifu Street, where the street entrance had been guarded by the officials sent by Nanhai and Panyu counties, and no idlers were allowed to approach. In front of the original house and the shops of Zicheng Ji and Zizhenzhai No. 2 stores, they have already been washed and refreshed, and the seals that have been pasted for more than half a year have long been gone, and the grass under the steps in front of the door has also been pulled clean. The road surface is also sprinkled and cleaned. The only problem is that the big glass of Zichengji and Zizhenzhai has been broken and taken away, and now I have to leave it for the time being.

The craftsmen of the original Zishi Enterprise, headed by the shopkeeper Shen Fan, lined up at the door of the store, watching the sedan chair all the way over—they had been looking forward to this day for a long time.

Since the evacuation of the Guangzhou station, the craftsmen have received severance pay and have gone home to avoid the limelight. Some unlucky people didn't hide from it, but they were caught by the officials, and they suffered some hardships and ruined some wealth. Fortunately, Sun Kecheng has been helping in secret, and he has the help of exalting from time to time to stabilize people's hearts. Although these people received severance pay and did not have to worry about food and clothing, after all, they sat on empty food every day and felt uneasy. One by one, they were looking forward to Guo Dongzhu coming back one day earlier, so that everyone could continue to work and do business.

looked forward to it, and finally waited for the news of Guo Dongzhu's return to Guangzhou. The news was sent by Sun Kecheng to inform him. A cadre of Zi's enterprise can't help but run to tell each other.

Shen Fan has returned to his hometown since he was dismissed and has taken refuge in the countryside. Because he is the chief steward of Zi's enterprise, he is the key person pursued by Tian Da. Before leaving Guangzhou, he was almost kidnapped by Tian Da's evil servants. Fortunately, from the beginning, Wei sent people to protect him secretly. to keep him safe and to escape.

Shen Fan hid in the roster of men and craftsmen in the entire Guangzhou Station, and fled all the way to his hometown to avoid the limelight under the escort of the dart master. Unexpectedly, Tian Da had a big hand, and he actually sent a servant through the local county government to arrest him. His family had to escape overnight under the escort of the dart master, and lived in seclusion in Qiwei's outer cabinet, where he hid for several months.

During his days in hiding, he was able to grasp the situation in Guangzhou through the communication network of the Qiwei Dart Bureau. Although he was not as restless as the craftsmen below, he also had great doubts about whether Guo Dongzhu and others could return to Guangzhou - after all, the Australians had to deal with the government.

When the people of Qiwei's dart bureau informed him to return to Guangzhou to prepare for the resumption of business, the old shopkeeper couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart, and immediately got up and hurried to Guangzhou. After he arrived in Guangzhou, he first stayed in Qiwei's inn, and Qiwei's people went out to inform the craftsmen scattered in various townships and even neighboring counties to come back and resume work. The whole inn was full of joy for a while, waiting for the proprietor to come back and resume business.

At this moment, Shen Fan was standing in the first place among the guys, and he couldn't hold back his excitement in his heart. In this turmoil, although I couldn't help the owner, the owner really "came back". From the small people, the government was so scared to death that they actually relied on the cannon to fight back. The Australian does what he says, and he is deeply impressed by his tough style that is not afraid of the powerful.

Seeing the sedan chair falling nearby, the sedan curtain was opened. Guo Dongzhu leaned out of the sedan chair. He stomped his feet slightly, and dusted off his sleeves again. A "king-tyrant spirit" that is beyond people's reach, and then, Miss Pei in the back also got off the sedan chair - she is still a Ming ** person, and her elegance is peerless. Shen Fanqiang suppressed the excitement in his chest, walked up a few steps, and knelt down with a big salute, wanting to kowtow to Guo Yi. The men and craftsmen of the Zi Group present also knelt down with a hula. In front of the door, a group of people suddenly fell to their knees.

Guo Yi was taken aback. He didn't expect these people to have such deep feelings for Zi's Enterprise. Seeing that Shen Fan actually gave him a big gift, he hurriedly took a step forward and helped him up. Seeing that the old shopkeeper was already in tears and choked up and speechless, Guo Yi himself didn't feel a little sour in his heart - the so-called "loyalty" probably meant this. He sighed in his heart.

"Everyone, please get up" Guo Yi settled down and glanced at everyone, "Farewell for most of the year." You have suffered. At that time, I also said that I would eventually return to Guangzhou, revive the old business, and set off firecrackers with everyone to reopen the brand. Speaking of this, he felt his eyes moisten a little, "Come and get firecrackers."

"Come" Shen Fan greeted, and some guys had already prepared a hundred high-rise cannons and ten hanging 10,000-character whips. Put a Huifu Street densely packed.

Guo Yi picked up the incense stick and lit a high-rise medicine twist, and then, the high-rising cannon and the swastika whip rang out one after another. The sound of firecrackers on Huifu Street was deafening, and smoke filled the air.

Guo Yi sat on the flower hall, the original richly furnished flower hall was now empty, even the chair under his buttocks, and the table in front of him were all temporarily bought from thrift stores - the ancients did not have the concept of a furniture store, and the furniture had to be made by craftsmen. To buy ready-made furniture, the only way to buy is to buy thrift.

The twelve glass-inlaid windows were gone, and the greedy servants took away everything they could move, even the building materials that could be removed. Guo Yi had already gone to see Zichengji's liquor workshop just now, and the stills and atmospheric boilers in it had been destroyed by them before they were withdrawn to prevent them from being used, and now when they were seen again, they were already damaged, and there were many parts missing from them. Apparently someone dismantled these things and moved them somewhere, and recently moved them back.

Almost none of the wealth-making guys who came back from the government were complete, Guo Yi shook his head when he saw it. Most of the things are probably only dismantled and burned, and the value of recycled materials is gone. As for the general living utensils, there is not even a pot or bowl left in the kitchen. It's hard to boil saliva and drink.

Finally, the house had been cleaned several times by Sun Kecheng and Shen Fan a few days ago. Weeds in the yard were also pulled out.

Even so, this once-thriving industry still looks like a decadent one.

"It's really a mess." Guo Yi sighed.

"Where do I sleep......" Pei Lixiu glanced at her boudoir on Huifu Street, which could be called the "four walls of the house", not to mention Ziming Building, she and Zheng Shangjie originally wanted to go back to Ziming Building to see the situation immediately. But Shopkeeper Sun asked her to come back tomorrow - it was still cleaning. I'm afraid I can't live in it.

"You and Zheng Shangjie will stay at Qiwei's inn at night. I have taken care of the shopkeeper Sun and prepared the luxurious room. Equipped with toilet and very clean. Guo Yi took care of the people, first set up a marching bed in his bedroom, and made a desk for office use.

"I won't go to live, and I'll give me a temporary bed, and I'll think about restoring Ziming Lou at night." Zheng Shangjie is very ambitious, and feels that living in a simple life can be overcome.

Guo Yi first posted a notice outside the mansion on Huifu Street, Zicheng Kee, Zi Zhen Zhai and Ziming Building, "If you will resume business in the next day, all friends of our store and our house are kindly requested to report and resume work within three days." "Although most people have already returned to report before the opening, there are still some people who have not been contacted.

As for the furniture, daily necessities, and money used in the store, we immediately asked craftsmen to make them, and asked the carpenters to make them as soon as possible. Some of the things you can buy from thrift stores are bought from thrift stores first. But Guo Yi demanded that he must buy good things, not because of ugliness.

"It's easy. Recently, there are quite a few big sellers of 'stealing goods' here in Guangzhou. There are a lot of good things in the thrift store, not to mention the furniture, even the furnishings and ornaments have to be picked," Shen Fan said with a smile. He will be too busy to run back and forth. Guo Yi gave him a copy of Delong's Guangzhou branch, which he could use as he wished.

"Oh? What's going on. Guo Yi said curiously.

"It's not all Australian...... Shen Fan lowered his voice, but couldn't help but want to laugh, "The officers and soldiers fought a big defeat in Qiongzhou Mansion, and the civilian and military generals who led the troops died to death and were captured. Those who were arrested had to redeem their bodies, and when they returned to the court, they had to be punished. Those who are guilty want to get rid of their crimes, and those who are not guilty want to be promoted. It's just a mess...... Doesn't this all have to cost money to dredge up? ”

"I see." Guo Yi thought that our victory in Chengmai was indeed a hard lesson for these officials.

"Nowadays, there are also people who sell land and houses. If you are interested, you can also secretly see if there is a suitable one. ”

"You watch for me first. There is a suitable re-enactment. ”

"Yes. This time, there are really a lot of people involved in Guangdong officialdom. Shen Fan has no feelings for the Ming court, and he has no sympathy for this group of fish and meat people, and the unlucky officials who are powerful and prosperous, "Don't worry, the proprietor, I will take Zhou Cai to buy it, and others call it Zhou Peeling, so I have to squeeze the good haode on these dirty officials, and give the proprietor you a lot of good things in their hands - there are a lot of good things in the hands of these officials." ”

"Okay, there you go." Guo Yi nodded.

Guo Yi's boat brought with him a construction team from Lingao Construction Corporation. Prepare for the rehabilitation of homes and properties. I also brought some building materials that might be needed: large glass, for example. But now it looks like the damage to the house is far greater than he expected. The materials prepared were not enough in terms of quantity and variety. There are also boilers, distillers, and sanitary ware, all of which have to be ordered from Lingao. Guo Yi knew that the condition of Ziminglou would only be worse than here - many of the "KitKat Yin Technique" things in it were probably not one in ten, and even the water pipes and faucets were removed.
