0050 Official Governor Foreign Office
Xuan Dali: "Don't, young master, you can't beat her, she has obviously learned martial arts, besides, she is so much older than you, and there is no shame in losing." ”
Li Jingshou cut off, "If you lose, you lose, that person's martial arts competition, do you want to ask whose age first?" After that, if you choose a general or something in a war, wouldn't it be better to send the old man directly? ”
Xuan Yuemeng sweats profusely, a little girl who is so big, why is she talking so much? I'm dizzy and dizzy, it's really hard! Although she knew that the other party was just a little girl over four years old, Xuan Yuemeng still couldn't swallow this breath, "Dali, I'm fine, you let me down!" ”
Xuan Dali saw that Young Master Meng must insist, so he had to put Young Master Meng down again, "Young Master, let's not fight, right?" ”
Zhou Xuexi, Wu Baochu and Li Jingshou, Zeng Siping's house slaves and maids also persuaded the two to stop fighting, everyone was worried that Xuan Yuemeng would be damaged by Li Jingshou, and then it would cause trouble.
When Xuan Yuemeng and Li Jingshou were fighting, a few children and adults were already around to watch the lively play.
One of the black and thin children, who was more than three years old, should be about the same age as Wu Baochu, he saw Xuan Yuemeng looking at him, and immediately compared to Xuan Yuemeng with a left hand to draw a circle and split with his right hand.
Xuan Yuemeng suddenly understood, knowing that the black thin child was teaching himself martial arts, and nodded at the black thin child to express his gratitude.
Everyone didn't know what Xuan Yuemeng was looking at, Li Jingshou and the others were impatient, "Hey, if you're afraid, kneel on the ground and call the eldest sister!" ”
Xuan Yuemeng sweated profusely, I thought Zeng Siping was already quite barbaric, compared to this, Zeng Siping was simply a little lamb, kneeling on the ground? Still called the eldest sister? Do you think you are the head of the underworld?
Xuan Yue snorted, "Call your mother!" ”
Li Jingshou was furious, rushed upward, and rushed to Xuan Yuemeng after a loud sound again, Xuan Yuemeng remembered the actions that the child taught him just now, drew a circle with his left hand, and confused Li Jingshou, Li Jingshou's style of play needs the strength of others, let her borrow strength, otherwise with her four-year-old small body, it is not easy to fall Xuan Yuemeng calmly, and she can't borrow strength for a long time, only to hear Xuan Yuemeng's voice, and his right hand makes a downward splitting action, which is hitting Li Jingshou's waist where there is no defense, Li Jingshou screamed, was to the ground by Xuan Yuemeng.
Xuan Yuemeng coughed, she was startled by herself, and she didn't dare to underestimate Chinese martial arts from now on, Xuan Yuemeng originally only thought that Chinese martial arts were all fancy, and it was okay to use them to strengthen the body, and fighting was still like Muay Thai.
Zhou Xuexi, Zeng Siping, and Wu Baochu at the same time: "Uh......"
No one thought that Xuan Yuemeng would be able to hit Li Jingshou.
Xuan Yuemeng looked at Li Jingshou triumphantly, "Don't think that you can bully people everywhere after practicing a move!" I don't need you to call my brother, you can call my brother's husband to listen to it! ”
Li Jingshou was already dizzy from being fallen, and then he was teased by Xuan Yuemeng, and suddenly cried angrily, "What the master taught is useless!" Woohoo......"
Zeng Siping ran to Xuan Yuemeng's side like a kitten, "Husband, brother, you are so amazing!" ”
Xuan Yuemeng: "Ugh. ”
Zeng Siping's husband and brother made him lose his childhood for a long time, and instantly returned to his chest, it turned out that he could also start from a child again, holding Zeng Siping's smooth and greasy little hands, full of happiness, rushing to his head, proud like a ****.
Zhou Xuexi and Wu Baochu also ran to Xuan Yuemeng's side happily, "Big brother! ”
Xuan Yuemeng sweated, I am so much younger than all of you, how can I be your big brother? "Okay, in the future, we will all be righteous brothers, my eldest and Siping's second, let's call it the second sister, Xuexi's third, and the third brother! Bao Chu, you are the fourth and fourth brothers! ”
Xuan Yuemeng was annoyed that Li Jingshou got carried away just now, and deliberately excluded Li Jingshou, thinking of winning the battle against Li Jingshou, thanks to the black and thin little brother, when he went to see it, the little brother had already left, which made Xuan Yuemeng quite regretful, but thinking that since it was a child who appeared here, eighty percent lived in this alley, and he could always meet again.
When Li Jingshou saw that the four people called him brother and sister, he was even more lost, crying, and was taken home by her personal maid.
Zhou Xuexi, Zeng Siping and Wu Baochu didn't have a good time, just now Xuan Yuemeng said that he wanted to worship, Wu Baochu said that his father was not at home, and he really pulled Xuan Yuemeng and the three people to the Wu Mansion Hall to worship, Mrs. Wu saw that the children were playing, and these were all official children, and the identity of their own children was also suitable, so the four of them were fooling around.
Xuan Yuemeng was fun at first, but then there was no way to be entangled by the three of them, so she could only follow and worship Master Guan, thinking that this would be fine, so that when he was not there, the three of them would be able to twist into a rope, and they would not be at the mercy of the little girl of the Li family.
I don't know why, Xuan Yuemeng seems to be an enemy by nature with Li Jingshou, Xuan Yuemeng is an adult herself, but he can't get used to Li Jingshou's appearance as a little adult, and he thinks that Li Jingshou is too delicate.
Two strong people can't always get along well.
Xuan Yuemeng and Zeng Siping returned home, Xuan Huang saw that Xuan Yuemeng was dirty, hurriedly checked whether Xuan Yuemeng was injured, asked the reason for the force, counted a few words of Xuan Yuemeng, and let Xuan Yuemeng not fight with others in the future, Xuan Huang did not take it to heart, although Li Jingshou is the baby daughter of Xiangye, he didn't think that he would be angry about the child's fight, after all, Li Jingshou was several years older than Xuan Yuemeng, and Xuan Huang went to take a bath with Xuan Yuemeng in his arms.
On the second day, Zhou Xuexi's father Zhou Fu came to Zeng's mansion early in the morning to pick up Xuan Yuemeng to go to the concession, Zhou Fu was worried about Xuan Yuemeng's childish nature, just casually talking, last night, Zhou Fu went home and thought about it all night, and felt more and more that if he could really do what Xuan Yuemeng said, it would really be a good thing, if he really did this, maybe he would find a new direction for the road of foreign affairs in the Qing Dynasty!
How did Zhou Fu know that there was such a good thing in the world? Foreigners will never do those mutually beneficial things with the Qing government, foreigners come to China, only think about taking advantage, in addition to taking advantage, or taking advantage, take advantage of the advantage, and kill your people! Take your land, occupy your home and don't leave!
Timothy Lee had already received a note written by Xuan Yuemeng yesterday, and Xuan Yuemeng simply explained the matter on the note, so that Timothy Li could be mentally prepared.
Xuan Yuemeng originally only thought about treating Timothy Lee as a puppet, as an actor, and he had to act how he asked him to act, but Xuan Yuemeng didn't think that as time went by, Timothy Lee was also a thoughtful person, and people would slowly enter the role by themselves, and they would regard themselves as shareholders of Klinsmann & Co., and shareholders would have the right to speak.
Timothy Li knew in front of Zhou Fu that Zhou Fu couldn't understand English, so he directly communicated with Xuan Yuemeng in English, "Mr. Yuemeng, how did you do it?" How tight are our funds? Don't you have any numbers in your mind? Or is it that in addition to the money in the account, can you still get a few million taels of silver? ”
Xuan Yuemeng shook her head and replied to Timothy Lee in English, "What's wrong?" Mr. Timothy Lee? I don't have any money, my money has been taken out, didn't I say, you don't have to worry about money, what I say, you can do it? ”
Timothy Lee was furious, "Mr. Yuemeng, I tried to understand your thoughts, but I didn't sleep all night last night, you know? I really can't figure it out, what the hell do you think? Since we don't have much money anymore, you don't agree to sell it at a lower price, and you don't agree to ask shareholders for the wharf, what kind of Xigu city construction project do you want to donate to the Qing government? What coal mines will you donate to the Qing government? Are you mistaken? Your money didn't fall from the sky, do you want Klinsmann to collapse faster? ”
Xuan Yuemeng sweated profusely, it turned out to be a matter of money, Timothy Li and his business philosophy do not agree, he does not have a particularly good way, you know, how difficult it is for a person to change another person's mind, even if he explains his thoughts to Timothy Li all day long, it may not be able to play a big role, not to mention, even if he explains to Timothy Li all day long, Timothy Li may not necessarily listen to him, and moreover, Xuan Yuemeng many times, the plan in his mind is not very formed, he himself is also taking one step at a time, he is not a god, where in the world is there a clear road waiting for people to walk? Otherwise, what's the point of life?
Zhou Fu didn't know what the two of them were talking about, but he could also see that Timothy Li was too unhappy, "What's wrong?" Yue Meng? This Mr. Timothy Lee seems not happy that I came? ”
Xuan Yuemeng smiled: "No, it has nothing to do with you, he is usually like this, foreigners like to dance when they talk." ”
Timothy Li realized that there was a guest there, and calmed down a little: "Mr. Yuemeng, please think about my words, don't come nonsense, you must have an account in your heart, although your money is easy to come by, but there is no need to be such a loser, right?" ”
Xuan Yuemeng smiled slightly: "Mr. Timothy Li, I know that I can't explain my thoughts in one sentence or two, I can assure you that I am also very nervous about our foreign company, I am very happy to see that you can worry about our foreign company, please rest assured, although I am betting a little big this time, but I have a plan." Please follow the text message I wrote to you yesterday and receive this high-ranking official of the Qing Dynasty well, although his rank is not very high, but he is the confidant of Li Hongzhang, the minister of Beiyang, the governor of Zhili, and the success or failure of our business is on him. Whether we can establish a cooperative relationship between our foreign bank and Beiyang Yamen depends on you, this relationship can be exchanged for countless wealth! ”
Of course, Timothy Li is not stupid, he can understand Xuan Yuemeng's thoughts, but he is unwilling to think about it according to Xuan Yuemeng's thinking, he feels that Xuan Yuemeng is really betting all the treasures on others, Timothy Li knows that the policy of the Qing government is the same every day, and the frequent changes of officials in the Qing Dynasty are also incredible, betting the treasure on this Beiyang Yamen, all pressing on this Li Hongzhang's practice, Timothy Li has absolutely no way to agree with Xuan Yuemeng's approach, he can't figure out why Xuan Yuemeng is like this.
Timothy Li endured his different opinions, and talked to Zhou Fu according to Xuan Yuemeng's meaning, although Timothy Li's Chinese was not good, but there was Xuan Yuemeng on the side to explain the translation, helping Timothy Li to speak smoothly, or gave Zhou Fu a reassurance.
Zhou Fu: "Yuemeng, it seems that this foreigner really wants to cooperate with our Beiyang Yamen, don't want us to sign any contract, donate to us for nothing, this is the first time I have heard of such a thing, I will go to discuss with Li Zhongtang." ”
Xuan Yuemeng smiled slightly: "I hope Lord Li can be as enthusiastic as Uncle Zhou, and the imperial court, such a big matter, Lord Li will definitely discuss it with the imperial court, right?" ”
Zhou Fu sighed, "This is a good thing, I'm not very worried about Lord Li, I'm just afraid that the court will stop me, and whether the court dares to ask for the benefits given by foreigners, it's really hard to say." ”
Xuan Yuemeng reminded Timothy Li that he sent an invitation to Zhou Fu to participate in the celebration of the victory of the Franco-Prussian War. As for the others in the Beiyang Yamen, Xuan Yuemeng had already made a list and asked the compradors of the foreign bank to send them separately.
Xuan Yuemeng and Zhou Fu's worries are really not wrong, Li Hongzhang listened to Zhou Fu's report, he was very interested, and he couldn't think of any risks, Li Hongzhang had already heard about Timothy Li and Klinsmann Foreign Company, after all, Timothy Li and Klinsmann Foreign Company were too loud, not to mention him, the entire business community of the Qing Dynasty, and even the business community of foreign countries that cared about the Qing Kingdom knew about Timothy Li.
Li Hongzhang sighed: "Look at the west now, I'll write an excerpt now!" When I have an eyebrow, I will meet with this person in person. This is still the first foreigner and foreign firm to respect my Qing Dynasty, and the old man has a good impression of Germany, which is much more durable and durable than other countries in the West. ”
