Carrotta and her two children were in Hu Wenkai's room, Carrotta took an apple and peeled it for Hu Taoying to eat, and Hu Taojiang sat aside to read the villain's book. Seeing Hu Wenkai enter the house, the two children stood up in a panic.

Hu Taojiang shouted in a low voice: "Good father." ”

Hu Taoying hid behind Carrota and didn't dare to stick her head out.

Carrotta said reproachfully: "Hu Wenkai saw that you scared the child like this, Tao Ying should not be afraid of having a mother." ”

Hu Wenkai laughed boringly: "I'm so terrible, come to Taoying's father to hug." ”

Wow, Hu Taoying was finally scared and cried, hugging Carrotta's thighs tightly, Hu Wenkai was inexplicably left there by his daughter.

"Hu Wenkai, you have the ability, even your own daughter can cry in fear. Go out, Tao Ying don't cry, her mother drove him away. ”

Depressed, Hu Wenkai rubbed his head and walked out of the room when he turned around and said, "the kid, there are pastries and candy in the box for them to eat, as well as two candied milk powder." ”

At noon, more than a dozen tables of guests dined in the canteen of the management center, and Hu Wenkai accompanied Liang Qichao, Wang Shan and others to eat in the small restaurant next door. In addition to Hu Wenkai, Liang Qichao commented on Haimen's economic development model, using capital to leverage the traditional fixed-line thinking, let farmers chase interests, give up the shackles of land, drive the flow of people, and promote the circulation of commodities, the biggest advantage is that it is not visible that the spread and circulation of invisible modern knowledge is accelerated.

Liang Qichao sighed: If Hu Wenkai is given a stable political environment for five or six years, the prospects for the development of Haimen and Nantong are unimaginable. Governor Wang Shan, you have to hold up an umbrella for Hu Wenkai, and you can't let the outside world interfere with the development here, this land is China's blessing and China's blessing.

Hu Wenkai sat at the bottom of the banquet table and listened to a group of people at the table discussing the current situation of Haimen, and the speaker stood up to salute Liang Qichao and said: Ren Gong, there is a suggestion below, it is better for Ren Gong to be aggrieved and concurrently serve as a counselor of Jiangsu Province to sit in Haimen and Nantong.

"Speaker Liu, you can't, what kind of identity is Ren Gong, I suggest that our province write to the central government to invite Mr. to sit in Jiangsu in the name of national counselor." Wang Shan hurriedly stood up and said.

Liang Qichao picked up his glass and said: "It's okay, I have promised Wen Kai to be the president of Far Eastern University, and I am not afraid of another title, and I can't ask for another title to help Hu Wenkai. ”

Hu Wenkai couldn't sit anymore, so he quickly stood up and drank the wine in the glass and said: "Wenkai is not good at expressing himself, so he can only do his best to do his job to thank you for your love for me." ”

"Wen Kai, what you said is not right, Ren Gong and we are for the hope of this thriving land and country, not for you personally." Speaker Liu put down his glass and said.

This Speaker Liu is on the way, Hu Wenkai thought that the money was not in vain, and he picked everyone's favors in a word, and quickly nodded and said that the Speaker was right in his criticism.

Liang Qichao pushed open the window full of sunlight, pointed to the factory in the distance and said: "Hearing the roar of the machine is better than composing a good poem, the whole body is full of strength, I like the atmosphere here." ”

In the distance, two huge columns of smoke swirled over the chimneys of the power plant and the iron-making blast furnace, and the whistle of the train could be heard from afar.

The afternoon sun made people feel very sluggish, and Liang Qichao, Wang Shan, and Hu Wenkai had an open and honest conversation in the room, which was rarely covered in later literature but played a decisive role in the direction of Hu Wenkai's group.

Liang Qichao tapped his fingers on the table and said: "Wenkai, the development of Haimen and Nantong is beyond my expectations, and according to my comparison, it can be comparable to some places in Japan, but now that China has a government in name and is actually divided, can you keep this tempting cake yourself?" ”

Hu Wenkai replied cautiously: "Mr. Liang, my side has only been developing for a few months, and I have not been busy with this area, and this side is not in the political center, and we think that it should be a stable period in one or two years, so we have not considered this aspect." ”

"Governor Wang Shan, that's how you guided him? If you are not armed, what is there to hold this land, Hu Wenkai, you are irresponsible to the people of Haimen and Nantong, a Qi Xieyuan can take over your property by sending a regiment, you are confused. ”

Wang Shan looked at Hu Wenkai a little puzzled and said, "Wenkai, can you specifically report how many armed people are now?" Could it be that these two counties are handed over to you and you have not developed the armed forces? ”

Hu Wenkai was a little overwhelmed and said: "In the early stage, a military camp was established in the Qidong wasteland, and more than 2,000 soldiers have been trained, plus three militia groups and the police armed force, which is roughly 4,000 people, but the first stage is mainly light weapons, and after May, large-caliber guns and tanks will be distributed. ”

"Good Hu Wenkai, are you a scumbag? Press a little bit to get some oil. He also said that you are not armed, and that you are now stronger than me, the governor. Wang Shan said angrily.

"Governor Wang, I also have a hard time, once this weapon is exposed, what will the overseer Qi Xieyuan think? The Beijing government will also have its views and will be targeted by the public. ”

"Wang Shan's Governor Hu Wenkai's consideration is also reasonable, and it will be counterproductive if he can't show his edge."

Liang Qichao took a sip of tea and said: "Governor Wang Shan, as far as I know, the Beiyang government will not let you stay in this position for too long, so I said it bluntly. ”

"I know this, Ren Gong, please tell me." Wang Shan replied a little gloomily.

Liang Qichao said: "Looking at Hu Wenkai's development model in Haimen and Nantong, I have a lot of feelings in my heart, this is China's development model. My opinion is that Hu Wenkai should speed up the process and bring the southern Jiangsu region under his jurisdiction as soon as possible during the reign of Governor Wang Shan. ”

The two shifted their gaze to Hu Wenkai, waiting for his answer.

Hu Wenkai thought for a moment and said: "Mr. Liang, Governor Wang, I mean steady and steady, I'm afraid that the management will not be good if I buy a big step." ”

"You don't have to think about anything, you can't wait for a steady and steady time, you are busy with your industry here, you can accept management and maintain the status quo, and the territory will be large, and the operating space will be large." Liang Qichao waved his hand and said.

Wang Shan picked up the cigarette on the table and lit it and said: "Ren Gong, I am optimistic about Hu Wenkai, I will handle this matter, and I will issue the letter of appointment, but how can I take office depends on Hu Wenkai, didn't the matter of the speaker of Nantong last time be solved very well?" ”

Liang Qichao asked Wang Shan about the situation in confusion, and after the two exchanged words for a long time, Liang Qichao said with a smile: "This is what it looks like to do big things, we must abide by the etiquette law, but we can't be pedantic, and if you should be violent, you must be violent, and you can't hesitate." After three months, no matter what method you use, you must take it down. ”

The words have been said so bluntly, Hu Wenkai asked himself if he was too careful, the two old men helped him so much, and he was still hiding it.

"Mr. Liang, Governor Wang should have no problem in three months, and I have already started to train one or two thousand grassroots cadres."

Wang Shan said with a smile: "Ren Gong, I said, this kid is oil slag, if you don't press him, he won't be oiled." ”

"Wang Shan, this is also good, steady can become a big thing, Wen Kai, do you need Governor Wang's support for anything, I said it as soon as possible, there will be no such shop in this village."

"Mr. Liang mentioned that I almost forgot, Haimen and Nantong counties have a lot of people from other places, and the province urgently needs to improve the postal system in these two places, and now the postal points are only in the county seat, and it takes a long time to send a letter to the family."

Wang Shan said happily: "I'll solve this for you when I go back, set up a post office in each township, set up a post office in the county, and all expenses will be solved by the province." ”

As the provincial delegation left, Hu Wenkai drove the plane back to Shanghai, and Carotta lay on the sofa at No. 3 Lane 181 and sighed that with the plane, the distance is not a problem.

Hu Wenkai smiled and said, "Honey, this is also called fast?" I am going to open a regular flight from Shanghai to Tianfen twice a day. Time is money, and it is estimated that our airliners will be produced in the second half of the year. ”

Lying on the sofa, Carotta shook her leg and said, "Wen Kai, I'm numb to you engaging in such a big industry, but I want to know what you want to go, sometimes I hate you for being busy all day." ”

Hu Wenkai sat down on the sofa, put Carrotta's head on his lap, looked down and said, "Honey, I can't take it." I followed tens of thousands of people to eat, Lao Yi, Yang Siliang, Wang Xihai, Jiang Qiuming, and others all followed me forward, as well as millions of people in Haimen and Nantong counties. In Chinese idioms, it is called a road from ancient Huashan. ”

"What Huashan road?"

"You just have to go forward and you can't stop. Carrotta will be wronged during this time, and her husband will be busy with her career. ”

"Hu Wenkai, you have thick skin, you are busy with you, and I won't drag you down, in April I will take a small passenger ferry to Sichuan to pick up my parents and go back to Shanghai to participate in our engagement in May."

"Don't worry about this, it's more chaotic over there, now I'll arrange someone Dong Qilong to pick it up." You've been walking around with the U.S. Consulate a lot during this time, and I'm sure you'll have something to do with them in the future. ”

"I'm not familiar with how to move around with them."

"I've already helped you think about it, every Sunday to hold a tea party, the venue will be the auditorium near our house, if not, ask Sun Daming if there is a house, buy a villa without words, and invite the French, British, and American consulate personnel to eat and dance, and let Adele assist you first."

"Hey, Hu Wenkai, are you hooking up with Adele?"

"Carrotta, you vinegar, she's a married woman, why am I hooking up with her? I have a relationship with the Wilton family. ”

"Anyway, I don't care, she's a married woman and can't pose a threat to me."

Hu Wenkai suddenly remembered and asked: "How is the sales company in the United States during this time?" ”

"What is it called in Chinese, by the way, it is called snowball. The orders were received with a soft hand, especially several special steels. According to Chen Yongcheng's instructions, the price has been raised by 3%, which is still in short supply. ”

"Who knows who uses these special steels, and the quality effect is first-class." Hu Wenkai said with a smile.

"Hey! What will Hu Wenkai eat tonight? You asked Wang Ma not to prepare meals today, and now there is nothing at home. ”

"You call Li Congshan, Sun Daming, Chen Yongcheng, Wang Daosheng, and they ask Sun Daming to arrange an evening gathering."

"Drink again, Hu Wenkai, I warn you, don't drink too much tonight, I think..."

"My little girl, my uncle knows."

"Get out! You're disgusting, I hate your name the most. Carrotta got up and called to arrange dinner.

In the evening, it was still in the old local Lu restaurant, several core figures lacked Lao Yi and Yang Siliang and Jiang Qiuming were present, Hu Wenkai briefly introduced today's situation, and it was imperative for southern Jiangsu to be included in the pocket, and a group of people came to the conclusion that they could get a lot of resources and manpower, and they could also get a strategic buffer zone.
