Due to the rise of the Yuanhe Industrial Zone, there were many people who traveled between Linyue County and Yanjiabao, but most of them were people from the Gan firm, which purchased various materials from other places and transported them back to Yanjiabao. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

In the second half of 1876, the population of the entire Yuanhe Industrial Zone has exceeded 40,000, and it is expected to reach 50,000 by the end of the year.

The Yuanhe Industrial Zone accommodates more than one-sixth of the population of Linyue County, which will lead to a large range of uninhabited areas in the entire Linyue County, and a large amount of land is uncultivated.

Anyway, there are so many people in the country who can't fill their stomachs, and there are always people who are willing to become tenants of the Yan family, and most of the tenants recruited by the Yan family are from areas outside Linyue County, so that except for the Yuanhe Industrial Zone, the population of Linyue County has not changed much, and no one will notice that so many people are employed by the Yan family, and even find the Yuanhe Industrial Zone.

On this road from Linyue County to Yanjiabao, vehicles and pedestrians coming and going will artificially widen the road, and they are about to catch up with the two-way four-lane road of later generations, which also shows how many vehicles come and go.

Today, there is a single figure on this busy road, he is in rags, his face is full of dirt as if he has not been washed for many days, and he is still holding a wooden stick in both hands, walking towards Yan Jiabao step by step, if this person freshens up, Yan Xueyi can recognize that it is not his fiancée's brother Chang Botao? However, even if Chang Botao is standing in front of Yan Xueyi's eyes now, Yan Xueyi can't recognize it, and I'm afraid even Chang Botao's parents can't recognize it.

How did Chang Botao become like this?

Things have to start from half a month ago, Chang Botao's parents want to tell Chang Botao a family affair for some unprofessional Chang Botao, and want Chang Botao to collect his heart, study hard, and strive to be famous, but Chang Botao himself is very reluctant to take the fame, but likes to dance with knives and guns, thinking that one day he will be in the army and leave a name in history, but Chang Yanliang only has such a son as Chang Botao, how could he let Chang Botao join the army, so he resolutely did not allow Chang Botao to join the army.

Chang Yanliang saw that his sons were about to become adults, and he was still thinking about practicing martial arts and joining the army every day, so he decided to tell Chang Botao a family matter, so that Chang Botao could collect his heart and concentrate on gaining fame, and Chang Botao also knew that the woman was very beautiful, but her personality was more "pungent", Chang Botao thought that he couldn't afford such a wife, and with such a wife, how miserable his life would be in the future can be imagined.

couldn't resist his parents, so Chang Botao decided to run away from home, but where could he go if he ran away from home? Chang's relatives are all in other provinces, and they have never been far away, just because Chang Botao himself went to other provinces to join his relatives, just when Chang Botao was thinking about who to go to, the name Yan Xueyi popped up, Yanjiabao is not too far away from Ningyuan Mansion City, Chang Botao felt that he should be able to go there, and thought that Yan Xueyi's guards were so strong, he must be able to do some martial arts, Chang Botao made up his mind and went to Yanjiabao.

After making a decision, Chang Botao didn't dare to tell anyone, so he carefully packed up his salute, took all his pocket money, left a letter saying that he went to other provinces to serve in the army, and quietly left Changfu, left Ningyuan Mansion City, and headed towards Yanjiabao.

But Chang Botao, who has never been in contact with the sinister hearts of the outside world, suffered a crime, and not long after he walked out of Ningyuan Mansion, he was targeted by bandits, all the salutes on his body were snatched away, and even the possibility of being killed, Chang Botao looked for an opportunity to escape, thinking about going back to Ningyuan Mansion, but he felt that he was so embarrassed to go back like this, he gritted his teeth and continued to walk towards Yanjiabao, Chang Botao, who was penniless, could only be hungry and uncomfortable, and could only beg all the way, the clothes on his body were already tattered, and he had not washed for several days.

Originally, Chang Botao also wanted to take a car from the Yan family's firm, but no one paid attention to the beggar-like Chang Botao, even if Chang Botao said that his sister was the fiancée of the Yan clan patriarch, it was useless, so he could only continue to walk slowly towards Yanjiabao.

Huangtian lived up to his wishes, and finally let Chang Botao go to Yanjiabao, walked to the door of Yan's mansion, looked at the gate of Yan's mansion, Chang Botao held back the strength in his heart and completely vented, and fainted directly at the door.

The people of Yan's mansion saw someone fainting at the door and rescued Chang Botao.

……

"What? My fiancée's brother is here? Yan Xueyi asked.

After Chang Botao woke up, the people of Yan's house hurriedly reported to Yan Xueyi, Yan Xueyi could only go over in person to see if it was his cheap brother-in-law, and he felt that it was unlikely, but when he saw Chang Botao, who had washed his face and was still in tatters, Yan Xueyi could only be speechless.

"Brother-in-law, I'm coming to you." After seeing Yan Xueyi, Chang Botao said weakly.

Now that Chang Botao is here, Yan Xueyi can only settle down and see what is going on.

The next day, Yan Xueyi learned what was going on from Chang Botao, who had already rested, and it was not an ordinary difficulty for a pampered young master to be able to walk from Ningyuan Mansion City to Yanjiabao.

After that, Yan Xueyi asked Chang Botao what to do in the future, and Chang Botao replied that he wanted to learn martial arts and join the army.

Learn martial arts and join the army, how can it be so easy in this era, the officers and soldiers of the Manchu Dynasty are rotten, and you can see officers and soldiers smoking big cigarettes everywhere, let Chang Botao go to the army, can this work?

It's just that Chang Botao has decided that he wants to learn martial arts and join the army, and he doesn't want to do anything else, Yan Xueyi thought about it, he could arrange Chang Botao to go to the escort team, and the sister of the abnormal Botao is his fiancée, and the Chang family will basically be tied to the chariot of the Yan family in the future, and it is not impossible to arrange Chang Botao to the escort team, I am afraid that Chang Botao will not be able to hold on, and it will not work until the time comes, anyway, when I see the Yuanhe Industrial Zone, don't think about leaving there in a short time.

Yan Xueyi asked Chang Botao: "I can let you go to the army, but you won't see your uncle for a long time after that, it's okay to give up now, once you go, there is no turning back." ”

"I'm going to join the army." Chang Botao made some fierce thinking and finally gritted his teeth and agreed, it was already like this, Chang Botao didn't want to look back.

A week later, Chang Botao, who had recovered from his health, joined the escort team.

Three days later, Chang Botao, who couldn't hold on, was allowed by Yan Xueyi to withdraw from the escort team, and then arranged a small steward position for Chang Botao in the Yuanhe Industrial Zone, at least for a few years, Chang Botao was not allowed to leave the Yuanhe Industrial Zone.
