Chapter 406: Life must be happy

"That's right. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info "Xiong Er glanced at Xiao Fang, and poured himself a glass of wine, his wine is Erguotou, Xiao Fang and Hao Xiucai drank rice wine, that's it, Xiong Er is also a mouthful of heroic spirit, he picked up the wine glass and drank it all, his face remained unchanged, and the people around him immediately cheered, some people said that it was worthy of Shuangdaolang Xiong Er, and Yangzhou City had another wine fairy. Xiong Er arched his hand at those people, then turned his head and said to Xiao Fang and Hao Xiucai: "I heard a story when I was a child......

Xiao Fang poked out his neck and asked, "What's the story?" ”

Xiong Er said: "When I was a child, my grandfather told me the story of Li Zicheng, saying that Li Zicheng had thirty-seven years of emperor's life, but after he led the troops into Beijing, he thought that he had won the world, so he immediately announced that the people of Beijing would celebrate the New Year every day, and the New Year was thirty-seven days in a row, what was the result? Wu Sangui opened the Shanhai Pass, and 120,000 Manchu iron rode into the customs and took away Li Zicheng's country by force. That's why my grandfather said on his deathbed that everything should be low-key, low-key. I think, isn't our Wang Dashuai too high-profile? ”

Xiao Fang couldn't help but smile: "Second brother, you are really salty and don't worry about eating turnips, what do people do to you in a low-key and high-profile manner, and besides, are you low-key yourself?" ”

Xiong Er said with a stalk: "Why isn't my Xiong Er low-key?" I can't do anything about shooting a bird in the head. ”

Xiao Fang sneered and said, "Second Brother Xiong, you are not a low-key person, your demeanor with double knives is still immortal in Yangzhou City." ”

Xiong Er glared at him and said, "That's why I had an accident, my eldest son didn't listen to me, he had to join some army, he signed up without me, and went to the new barracks of the Jiangbei New Army, alas...... A few days ago, I sent back a set of old military uniforms to my second brother, my second child, I wear this old military uniform every day, I think he will definitely join the army like his brother in the future. ”

Xiao Fang said angrily: "When it comes to joining the army, I'm angry, I'm just squinting my eyes, why don't you want to accept me when you're a soldier." ”

Hao Xiucai couldn't help but say: "The army is afraid that you will shoot your own people when you shoot, and they still squint, squinting is not good at all, unless you go to be a baggage soldier and don't shoot." ”

The sound of firecrackers in the distance resounded in the sky, and Xiao Fang immediately shouted: "It may be that the Wang family is sending money, why don't we go over and join in the fun?" ”

"If you want to go, I can't afford to lose that person." Xiong Er said, "I, Xiong Er, am also an uncle in our Yangzhou City, how can I go and pick up happy money, beggars and children are the only ones who do this." ”

Xiao Fang had no choice but to hang his head and say: "That's it, I won't go either, I won't be embarrassed, Hao Xiucai, I don't think you're doing well, otherwise you go?" ”

Hao Xiucai shook his head and said: "I'm living a good life, don't lie to me and be embarrassed, my house is half rented, and I can get more than 100 yuan a month, which is enough for my family of six to eat and drink spicy food." Yangzhou City is now so prosperous, thanks to Wang Dashuai. Now that the war in the south of the Yangtze River has cleared our Jiangbei region, where else can the people live quietly? ”

Starting from the Wuchang Uprising, the anti-Qing upsurge was set off in various parts of the Qing Dynasty, the major provinces in the south became independent, and the northern provinces also broke out in uprisings. At this time, the safest place in the world is the Jiangbei region, northern Anhui, central Anhui, northern Jiangsu and central Jiangsu, Yangzhou is the center of Jiangbei, and naturally people have poured into Yangzhou. In the past, there were only more than 200,000 people in Yangzhou City, but now there are no less than 500,000 people in Yangzhou City.

Hao Xiucai has no ability in his life, but he has a yard at home, and after renting out half of the yard, his family life suddenly improved, and it is no wonder that Hao Xiucai is grateful to Wang Yongan. But Xiong Er was not satisfied with Wang Yongan, the reason was that his eldest son Xiong Ming was only fourteen years old, so he secretly ran away to become a soldier and was admitted. Xiong Er knew too much about the danger of being a soldier, he didn't want his son to take risks, and it was much safer to follow him as a broker in Yangzhou City than to be a soldier, but unfortunately his sons didn't listen to him, and looked at the photos of Wang Yongan's idol every day, and he was determined to become a "bull fork" like him.

At this time, a car with a Japanese flag drove by on the street, and someone immediately recognized it and exclaimed, "Even the Japanese are congratulating?" ”

"What's the matter, Sun Yat-sen and Li Yuanhong in the south, Yuan Shikai in the north have come to congratulate, Yuan Shikai also sent his son to congratulate him in person, who else can win this honor in the world." Another insider interjected.

"Look, look, isn't that a Frenchman's car?"

"How do you know it's French?"

"Look at the flag, the flag is French."

"Nonsense, I also said the Dutch."

"You poor mallet know what, but I have done business with the French, so I naturally recognize who is French and who is Dutch. You see, the Dutch are also here, and Wang Dashuai has a lot of face. ”

"Yes, it's really the pride of our Yangzhou people."

Xiong Er felt more and more that what his grandfather said was reasonable, the more arrogant the person, the more miserable the end would be in the future, so he was more worried about his son.

The car with the Japanese flag drove all the way to Wuthering Heights, and Hikoyoshi, the former Japanese minister to China, got out of the car with a smile, and a young man named Kenji Dohihara stood beside him. Kenji Dohihara, who had just graduated from the Japanese Army University, was assigned to the General Staff Headquarters as a staff officer with excellent grades and the influence of his family, and then came to China to work as an investigator after a struggle, and at the same time became a subordinate of Aoki Nobuyume, and this time he was ordered to protect Baron Hikoyoshi of Ijiin, and at the same time became familiar with some important figures in Chinese officialdom, especially Wang Yongan.

"This king of Jiangbei seems to be too arrogant." Seeing that there was only one housekeeper to receive him, Kenji Dohihara said angrily.

Hikoyoshi of Ijiin didn't seem to care, and walked in with a smile, followed by a group of Japanese secretaries and officers who followed him into Wuthering Heights.

In addition to wooing Wang Yongan, he also had to go to the south to greet Sun Yat-sen, an old friend of the Japanese people.

Yijiyuan Yanji very much hoped that Yuan Shikai would replace the Qing government as emperor, he advised Yuan Shikai more than once, but Yuan Shikai was unmoved, first, Yuan Shikai felt that he overthrew the Manchu Qing Dynasty as the emperor and became the real Cao Cao, and secondly, he felt that the south would not support him as the emperor, so he was very hesitant in his heart. Just when Yuan Shikai hesitated, Yijiyuan Yanji went south to find Wang Yongan, which could not help but make Yuan Shikai angry and annoyed, and Yijiyuan Yanji also borrowed Wang Yongan to stimulate Yuan Shikai, meaning to let Yuan Shikai take a look, if he does not become the emperor, the Japanese can support another very hot character to be the emperor - Wang Yongan.
