Li Zhe felt something in his heart and was upset for Ma Zhong, but the current social reality is like this, and he can't change it, at most he can only feel a little sorry. At this time, the wine and food were brought up, relieving some of the embarrassment, Li Zhe took the wine glass first, and said to Ma Zhong:

"Come, eat!"

When Ma Zhong saw the wine, he immediately showed his face, picked up a big bowl, and said:

"Eat and drink!"

With a flip of his wrist, half a bowl of Jiannanchun's good wine was already eaten.

Hu Shi invited a singing orchid for the two of them, holding a huqin, the orchid has a high nose and deep eyes, and a fair complexion, and at first glance it should be the Aryan species among the natives, which is quite beautiful in Li Zhe's eyes from later generations.

The orchid looked at the two masters, first saluted, said to the master, and then sat down, the sound of the piano sounded, the mouth of the tan opened lightly, and the beautiful sound began to echo in the box.

Liu Ying, Yueming, heard the general's order.

The high-rise drums and horns are under martial law, and the lying is quiet.

The horizontal lance is in love, and the pot is singing, and there are old examples of the predecessors.

War, customs, plants and trees are also well-known surnames.

Tiger Tao, Leopard Tao, at a glance.

From time to time, the Buddha wiped the old bow and knife, but hated the marquis early.

The night moon cymbals, the spring breeze teeth, and the group flower brocade robe.

Sideburns, wood carving, who will say Feng Tang Lao.

But it was the singer who saw that both of them were officers, so she chose a military song to sing. The woman's high-pitched voice, although it is shrill, can still sing the sonorous spirit in this song, which shows the singing skills of this orchid. It was Li Zhe who listened to countless famous songs and pop songs in later generations, and he also felt that this song had its own flavor.

With this beautiful singing, the atmosphere in the box finally began to be lively, and Li Zhe and Ma Zhong began to push the cup and change the lamp.

Li Zhe ate a few glasses, and immediately choked on it, although this wine is not as high as those in later generations, but it is also extremely spicy, not the sweet rice wine he imagined, Ma Zhong also laughed when he saw it,

"I didn't expect Dutou to be a person who can't eat and drink?"

Li Zheyu stiffened his mouth, "How can there be, it's not that I can't eat wine, it's just that the amount of alcohol is not good, it's just not good." ”

"Hahaha!" Ma Zhong laughed.

Now, I feel that the atmosphere in the box is much better.

Li Zhe took the opportunity to speak:

"Actually, Ma Dutou, your ability is obvious to all, although this official is just here, he can also see it. Your identity, serving in this army, cough cough, there are always such and such inconveniences, I also know a little bit about the shortcomings in the Japanese army, Ma Dutou, you are mixed here, it's a pity! ”

Li Zhe's words were sincere, although they were shallow and deep, but I am afraid that they were talking about Ma Zhong's thoughts, although Ma Zhong was silent, but he could see that he still had some confidence in his ability to lead troops.

"Marquis Yu said that it was a joke, a person from a family like me Ma Zhong, where can I go if I am not in the imperial army, except for being a soldier, I don't know anything."

"Ah! Where you can't go, it's good to be a soldier, you are not happy in this imperial army, but my good man in the Song Dynasty has ambitions of thousands of miles, and there is a vast world outside, where can you not go? ”

"What do you mean, Marquis Yu?"

"I mean being a soldier is also a matter of where to be a soldier, if you are a soldier in the imperial court, of course there is nothing to say, but now I encourage overseas development in the Great Song Dynasty, so I can make a lot of money. Which of those major clan lords did not cultivate private soldiers overseas, and formed those volunteer soldiers, reclamation regiments, Nanyang, Australia, Yanzhou, everywhere, there was a shortage of people.

Even those slave trading groups also need manpower, and if they are willing to condescend, those heads of the clan will probably come to invite them if they break their heads! ”

Yu Hou laughed, how can there be such a thing. Besides, Marquis Yu, you also know that those family heads and feudal lords only discriminate against people like me more than in the army, that is a private army, and there, it is even more mixed, and people like me can't get ahead. If you meet a bad master," Ma Zhong thought for a while, shook his head and said. "It's better to mix rice in this handful of Japanese soldiers."

It's not as good as it is, it's even worse than it is now! Ma Zhong is also telling the truth, being a soldier in this Japanese army, it is better to be a soldier for the official family, pay attention to drought and flood protection, although these generals in the army discriminate, but they are not enough to specifically harm Ma Zhong and these people, but to be a soldier for the feudal lords, that is the net worth and life are sold to people, if you meet a wise and martial feudal lord, of course it is good, but if you are unfortunate and meet a bad feudal lord, it is really miserable.

Although Ma Zhong is a mixed-race child, he is also arrogant and would not make such a stupid choice.

Well? Li Zhe shook his head, "But I want to say, what if someone doesn't discriminate against your background, and prefers to invite someone like Ma Dutou who has real materials?" ”

"How can there be such a person? Oh, no. Ma Zhong suddenly woke up at this time, Li Zhe said this kind of thing will never be without purpose, think about Li Zhe's background, and feel that this Li Zhe who is sitting opposite him is a nobleman himself, and he is also a hereditary feudal lord, although the title is not high, he is just a baron, but he also has his own territory, and he also has the qualifications to form his own volunteer soldiers.

"Yu Hou, you?"

Ma Zhong was a little surprised, could it be that Li Zhe was interested in himself? So to say this to himself, Li Zhe is a child of a family who graduated from Jiezhou School, and at a young age, does he dare to go overseas to colonize?

That's not a good job for hereditary nobles like Li Zhe's family, not to mention sleeping in the wilderness, all they set foot in are barren land, fierce beasts and poisonous insects, facing all kinds of difficulties and obstacles, risks and opportunities coexist, and the investment is very large, but the result is not necessarily successful, Li Zhe, a gentleman who grew up in a comfortable family, has such strength? Again, there are such ambitions?

Li Zhe did not answer clearly, but smiled mysteriously at Ma Zhong and said:

"That's right, Ma Dutou, your ability, I Li Zhe sees it, if I sit in a high position in the army, a talent like Ma Dutou you, I will never let it go. If the appropriate positions in the army are talents like Ma Dutou, then when will the Hu chief on the back not be flattened, and my Great Song Xiongjun will cross the Yangtze River to recover the northern part of the Central Plains, which can be said to be just around the corner!

It's a pity that I, Li Zhe, can't do that position! But it also gives us another way. I've said it now, Ma Dutou, you just need to know it in your heart.

Ma Dutou also knows that now my goal is to attack the lord first, once the attack is successful, I have the qualifications to form my own private army, if Ma Dutou is interested, the position of the head of my family will be reserved for Ma Dutou, and Du Tou will go back and think about it, and we will talk slowly when we have the opportunity in the future. ”

Ma Zhong's heart fluctuated by Li Zhe's words, and he couldn't calm down for a long time, and he barely borrowed a glass of wine to hide the excitement in his chest and abdomen, and said, "Okay! ”

Then, after drinking a few more glasses of wine, Li Zhecai said again:

"Actually, when I came out to eat and drink today, I really have some things to ask the head."

With that, he raised his head and looked at Ma Zhong.

Ma Zhong's heart fluctuated just now by Li Zhe's teasers, and he was thinking about whether Li Zhe really wanted to invite his own family to be an officer of the vassal volunteer army to carry out overseas colonization, overseas colonization, that would make a lot of money! Moreover, this is the road to success for many low-level military men, the paradise of adventurers in the Great Song Dynasty, and people have gained not only wealth but also reputation and future in this sea colonization movement.

This is a time to encourage pioneering!

In the early days of the Great Song Dynasty's overseas colonization, it was really dangerous and dangerous, and the Great Song Dynasty didn't know how many famous generals they all started from the road of righteous soldiers in the early days, and there were even mixed-race children like him.

It is precisely by relying on these volunteer soldiers who fought all the way out in the primeval jungle and even the officers of the Great Song Dynasty who came out of the reclamation regiment that the Great Song Dynasty was able to overcome obstacles and grow all the way to this point.

In the legends of the Great Song Dynasty, overseas colonization has almost become the glorious road of the Great Song Dynasty men, the road of honor, even if they know that the overseas environment is difficult, but they still can't stop the Great Song Dynasty athletes from rushing to the wild land to explore, and who of these athletes in the Great Song Dynasty has not grown up listening to the legends of these adventurers since childhood.

In this social atmosphere, who can not make a dream of opening up territory for the Great Song Dynasty and worshipping the generals? Of course, even so, if Ma Zhong is just to go overseas colonization and become a small soldier, he will never be willing, but if he is an officer and organizes an expedition force, he lacks a partnership of investors, and when it comes to going to sea, even if he needs at least one or two sea boats, it is also an investment like mountains and seas!

Therefore, overseas colonization, this is a dream, the dream in the hearts of many people in the Great Song Dynasty, speaking of the same prospects, but ordinary people have no such qualifications.

Li Zhe tempted Ma Zhong with such a dream, which immediately made Ma Zhong's heart flutter. To be honest, Ma Zhong is indeed unsatisfactory in the army, a mixed-race person like him is really like a shackle here, for Li Zhe, of course Ma Zhong was warned by his boss above, knowing that the son of this family and the boss of his own boss, the dignified left wing command made Lu Xuan have a gap, Lu Xuan specially found someone to take care of him, and asked him to help deal with Li Zhe together.

But no matter how Ma Zhong said that he was also a man, Lu Xuan asked him to do such dirty things, Ma Zhong, who had strong self-esteem, felt a little awkward, which made people feel unhappy.

Now, in Li Zhe's place, he was given the temptation to talk about the dream of overseas colonization, on the one hand, the current job, on the other hand, the dream of the future, which is more important, how will Ma Zhong choose?

At this moment, I heard Li Zhe say that he had something to ask him, Ma Zhong raised his head, and poured a whole bowl of Jian Nanchun into his stomach, his eyes were shining, his face was red, and he said with wine in his mouth:

"Yu Hou's politeness, what to ask, what to order, only come through the pipe."
