Sun Jingting walked all the way ashore from the trestle bridge and heard a loud military horn.

Hutchison doesn't like to play trumpets or beat gongs and drums, in fact, many people still like it very much, but it is useless for them to like it, and Zhang Han doesn't like it for nothing.

Zhang Han likes the short but powerful brass trumpet sound, which is simple, powerful, and inspiring.

This kind of welcome call was set by Zhang Han himself, which is powerful and quite inspiring.

There are also wake-ups, lights-out, and, of course, charges.

In the sound of the loud brass horn, Sun Jingting walked calmly and solemnly to the land of Taiwan.

Cohen couldn't see for sure, but there were not just a few groups of people on the shore, but countless heads, and the dense crowd filled the roads and vacant ground from the port area to the storage area and the shipyard area.

People looked at the trestle with expectant eyes, until Sun Jingting appeared.

Today is a typhoon day, the sea fog is very large, the sight can not reach far, but there is nothing special on the shore except for the rainy day, when wearing a cyan short straight jacket, hand waist knife, wearing long boots, long jade, only with a belt on the top of the head to tie the hair, the whole heroic and handsome Sun Jingting appeared in front of people's eyes, the scene suddenly burst into a burst of fierce and cheerful cheers.

This is the first time that Hutchison's high-level people have set foot on the soil of Taiwan, whether it is the immigrants from Datong or Xuanfu Shaanxi, or the immigrants from Liaozhen, or the old immigrants from Fujian, whether it is the soldiers who farm the land, the workers of the shipyard, the teachers or students of the school, the sailors, the officials of Hutchison, the merchants, the soldiers of the army, the Russians, the Portuguese from Macao, and a few Germans, Frenchmen, and British, all of them are really meeting the high-level of Hutchison for the first time.

Their earliest group had been here for several years, and the latest had been here for months, and all of them saw themselves as part of Hutchison.

However, the contact between Taiwan's marching military department and the headquarters is too difficult, last year Li Pingzhi and Zhang Xuwen once led a ship to transport silver back, this is the pride of the Taiwanese, how can it be disrupted by the Dutch later, Taiwan's side is also a slight fluctuation of people's hearts, everyone knows that the support of the military department for Taiwan is the most important, not to mention, the Taiwan side has spent at least three million taels in recent years, not including the storage goods and cash silver supported by the Li family in Hirado, starting from nothing, Taiwan feels that the blue wisps of the road are from scratch, What worries them is that the top level of the military department feels that Taiwan has achieved nothing by spending money on money...... People's hearts are fluctuating, and they are quite worried.

At this juncture, Sun Jingting's high-level visit is undoubtedly a shot in the arm for Taiwan's military and civilians...... Sun Jingting and Chang Wei are both relatives of Zhang Han, but Sun Jingting and Zhang Han first became friends and later became relatives, and the Sun family's power in Hutchison is much greater than that of the Chang family, the Chang family is now just an ordinary foreigner, nothing more than a slightly richer businessman, the Sun family's Dongshan Association was originally the Lingqiu Assembly, at that time the Ming Dynasty folk meeting became a common practice, the miners' association was actually very feared, the Sun family can withstand the pressure to speak for the miners, it can be said that it is quite a difficult thing, This makes the uncle and nephew of the Sun family very prestigious and famous in the Lingqiu area.

The mining system occupies a very important position in the industrial and commercial system of Hutchison, and iron tools are also the majority of Hutchison's money, and there are quite a lot of miners and people from the Dongshan Association in various iron factories...... Coupled with the miner department in the army, the latent strength under Sun Jingting's command is only strong but not weak.

Of course, under the Hutchison system, there is no need to worry that the Sun family will have bad intentions or self-reliance, it is simply impossible. However, Sun Jingting's high position and weight are needless to say, in addition to Zhang Han in the Hutchison system, only two high-ranking ministers are recognized, one is Li Shenming, and the other is Sun Jingting, but Li Shenming has no influence in the military system, more has an impact on the foreign and commercial system and the official system.

As for Kong Minxing, he has considerable influence in Li Zhuang and the grassland, and he also has influence in Taiwan's Department of Agriculture, and Mr. Kong is also known, but there is always no greater influence than Sun Jingting.

Although it is not as exciting as Zhang Han's personal arrival, Taiwan's military and people also know in their hearts that it is absolutely impossible for Zhang Han's status to leave all the things in the north and travel thousands of miles to Taiwan in a few months...... It is also very good that Lord Sun Jingting and Master Sun came here, which shows that the top level of the military department attaches great importance to Taiwan, so as not to have a feeling of neglected orphans all along on the Taiwan side.

Of course, they would never know that Sun Jingting had a quarrel with Zhang Han and were forced to come...... Now Sun Jingting absolutely does not regret this trip, not only does he not regret it, but he also feels quite lucky, if he does not come to such a trip in person, how can he know that the situation in Taiwan is like this?

"Brother Sun!" Chang Wei, who has always been unruly and brave and resolute, has a straightforward temper and is arrogant among the children of some big families, took the lead in stepping forward to salute, his face full of sincerity and joyful smiles.

In the eyes of Taiwan's military and civilians, this noble brother who is less than 20 years old is smart and capable, but he is too arrogant, he rarely sees smiling faces in ordinary times, and his temper is too rigid, like an awl, which is enough to break the shackles when he decides and does things, but he is a little aggressive and difficult to get along with in ordinary times.

In fact, officials who are close to the people should be gentle and friendly, and it is difficult for people to really attach themselves to them if they are too strict and rigid, but Taiwan is a situation that has opened up, and it needs a political official like Chang Wei who has the courage to fight and forge ahead, so it is really difficult to do both......

The current Chang Wei is a big surprise, the melon seeds, who are usually expressionless, have a smile on his face, and he takes a step forward to bow down to Sun Jingting.

"Terrible and rude." Sun Jingting was originally a gentle and easy-going person, and he didn't like to put on a shelf to make a majestic gesture, and he needed to be extra polite to Chang Wei, speaking of which, both of them were Zhang Han's foreign family, but the Sun family was like a wife, and Chang Wei's cousin was a serious lady, but the two families never talked about this, they all intersected with each other on an equal footing.

Of course, Chang Wei stood up when he was helped, he looked at Sun Jingting and said: "Brother Xiaozheng, we haven't seen each other for nearly three years, you have always worked hard by Brother Han's side." ”

Sun Jingting said: "What hard work can I talk about? Your brother Han is really hard, he is the master of such a big family business, we are just the people who help, and he is the one who really has the burden to endure hardship. You have also worked hard, Taiwan is from scratch, to get to the point where you are now, it's really hard for you! We are in Lizhuang and Qingcheng, just rely on imagination to speculate on the situation here, this time Wen Lan strongly asked me to take such a trip, I regret it now, I regret that I was really late. ”

Chang Wei heard these words, and his heart was extremely moved, but he was really Yan Gang and majestic character, looking at him-hee-ha-ha, in fact, his temper was quite arrogant, and he didn't want to lose his majesty in human affection.

Most of the people in Taiwan's marching military department came up to greet Sun Jingting one by one, most of them are very familiar old men, and there are also some famous rising stars, Li Pingzhi is the most outstanding one, Sun Jingting is not particularly happy about Li Pingzhi's personality in the future, but Li Pingzhi is a rising star that the high-level military department attaches great importance to, no matter what his temperament is, his ability is first-class and strong, and he has made several great achievements...... At the moment, he was holding on to Li Pingzhi's hand, smiled and asked a few words of homely things, and finally said: "Why don't you see the sequel?" ”

Li Pingzhi and Zhang Xuwen have done things together several times, he is a sharp character, Zhang Xuwen is rigid on the inside and soft on the outside, and he is usually not very serious in the subsections, so they get along very well...... Li Pingzhi smiled and said to Sun Jingting: "Lord Hui, Brother Xuwen has gone deep into the Tainan Mountain, this is the third time. ”

"Oh, I've heard that, too." Sun Jingting said: "I heard that it is a thousand miles back and forth, it is really hard." ”

Everyone present nodded...... Zhang Xuwen is really a person who is not afraid of hard work or frustration, he seems to have a soft character, sometimes people say a few inappropriate words, or joke too much, when he is shocked, Zhang Xuwen laughs and walks away, not serious with people at all. He is Zhang Han's cousin, in terms of identity, he is a closer relative than Sun Jingting and Chang Wei in this era, and he is a real brother of the same clan in the clan.

Zhang Xuwen was trained by Zhang Han himself, once served as a close officer, and went to the territory of the Russians in the north for more than a year, and also duel with the Cossacks, it is really a choice of literature and martial arts, and after coming back, he did not want to go out of the military department to experience it, and he came to Taiwan, Sun Jingting came with a few jars of salted duck eggs, which were pickled by Zhang Xuezeng personally selected the best duck eggs, and asked Sun Jingting to bring Zhang Xuwen, but the result was not there.

"It's the third time." Chang Wei said with a smile: "The effect is getting better and better every time, these natives are not as good as we imagined, Zhang Xuwen treats them with an equal attitude, learns their language, and of course also brings a company of guards, otherwise it will be unjust to be killed by those barbarians as prey." Several times in and out, brought a lot of grain, seeds, medicine in, and now there are many local people from the mountains who have come down to work for a short time in the places under our control, and they come to exchange food and wine, and we have exchanged them all, and the two sides are much more friendly. ”

"There are also Dutch people to help." Li Pingzhi: "The Dutch built a castle, and their soldiers went deep into the mountains to arrest Lifu everywhere, all of them arrested the natives who formed associations in the mountains, this kind of news spread quickly, the Dutch not only arrested people, but also abused and beaten, the natives died a lot, and more were directly killed, there was a Dutch sergeant who killed more than 100 natives, think about how many natives were killed." ”
