Chapter 142 Appreciation: Ask for collections, ask for recommendations
Today is also the fourth watch as usual, is there any recommendation? Do you still have a collection? Let's support the diligent renewal of Da Luoluo!
Less than two days after the return of the Lanfang tyrants to Pontianak, Luo Xiangmei, the head of the Lanfang Luo family, and her sister Luo Xiangju arrived in Dongwanlu under the escort of a team of Luo family members 188888.
For his wife, who can be regarded as a heroine among women, Zhu Jishi does not have the slightest intention of slacking off, although the two have not known each other for a long time, but they have fought side by side in Xindang, so the relationship is extraordinary, and Zhu Jishi is also extremely grateful to Luo Xiangmei for her resolute support at the critical moment.
Therefore, he personally went out of the city for ten miles, and after welcoming Luo Xiangmei and Luo Xiangju into Dongwanlu, Zhu Jishi set up a family banquet in the backyard of Lanfang General Hall to drink and talk with the Luo sisters. Zhu Jishi and Luo Xiangmei are now engaged, and before, Liu Peng had already arranged a dowry and carried it to the Luo family's house in Dongwanlu. According to the etiquette law, it is not appropriate for the two to meet, but now that a country has just been established, things are complicated, how can the two of them not meet? As for etiquette or something, naturally I don't have to pay attention to it.
"Sir," Luo Xiangmei, who was wearing a moon-white Western-style silk dress, smiled at Zhu Jishi and handed over a large envelope, "This is the distribution of gold mines, fields and halls owned by various families and Chinese companies in West Borneo, and the proposal for redistributing gold mines has also been written and placed inside, please take a look." ”
"Hehe, Amei, you know better than me about the situation in West Borneo, you think you can do it." Zhu Jishi smiled, took the envelope, didn't open it, and handed it to Luo Xiangju for safekeeping.
"Amei, nothing else, but meritorious people still have to be rewarded, gold mines, fields, official positions, titles, what should be given must be given enough, and enough."
"The slave family understands." Luo Xiangmei smiled softly, "In the battle of Xindang, the biggest credit is Lao Peel and the other five old French officers, but they are all foreigners, and it is inconvenient to give Lan Fang the official title, so give more land and gold." ”
"Named the five of them the earls of Lanfang, Old Peel awarded Lanfang the rank of colonel, and the other four were given the rank of lieutenant colonel."
"Husband, aren't they French? Can you accept our Lan Fang's official lordship? Luo Xiangju on the side said strangely.
"It doesn't matter, transnational aristocracy is a common thing in Europe." Zhu Jishi waved his hand and smiled, "Don't I have an English viscount myself?" ”
"Isn't it too big to give the rank of colonel?" Luo Xiangmei seemed to have other considerations, frowning and said, "The regulations of the Jishi Army are not big, there shouldn't be a few generals, right?" ”
"There are three," Zhu Jishi smiled, pointed at Luo Xiangmei and said, "You one, I have one, and Zheng Hong also has one." You and I are both army generals. Zheng Hong gave a vice admiral and then a marquis of Yanping. ”
Zheng Hong is an important help for Zhu Jishi to build a country in Lanfang, almost as important as the Luo family sisters, so he needs a big reward. He claimed to be the king of Yanping, after Zheng Chenggong, it was very appropriate to seal the Marquis of Yanping, and Lanfang was the principality, and the prince was the biggest, since Luo Xiangmei was ready to take the public position as a dowry, Zhu Jishi was ready to proclaim himself a Ming Duke - this implication is naturally obvious. As a subordinate, at most, he is a marquis. As for conferring the rank of vice admiral, Zhu Jishi also thought it through.
"Lan Fang's Minister of War, I am ready to let Han Si take the position, and in addition, he will be crowned an earl and awarded the rank of colonel. Zheng Hong made him Minister of the Navy, and put him in charge of organizing the fleet of the Canton Fleet of the Nanyang Trading Company, and then stationed in Hong Kong with us in the future. ”
"With us? Sir, do you want the slave family to go to Hong Kong as well? Luo Xiangmei was a little stunned, she knew that Zhu Jishi was going to use Hong Kong as a stronghold for the restoration of the Ming Dynasty in the future, it was expected that Zhu Jishi would take Luo Xiangju and Wang Yunjiao to Hong Kong, but it was surprising to let herself go to Hong Kong, who would guard this Lanfang's lair?
"Yes, Xiangmei, you are my wife, of course you have to be by my side all the time." Zhu Jishi smiled and said, "As for Lan Fang, I plan to appoint Liu Peng as the prime minister and make him an earl; Ren Luo Junqi was the commander of the Eastern Wanlu garrison, awarded the rank of colonel, and was also made an earl; There is also Chen Jijie of the Chen family and Jiang Sen of the Jiang family, one is the Minister of Finance, the other is the Minister of Industry and Commerce....... and the other is to let Zhao Daheng be the Governor of Brunei Xingming City, grant the rank of lieutenant colonel in the navy, and make him a viscount. ”
In fact, Lan Fang is most likely to rebel against Zhu Jishi, the dragon that crosses the river, is the system of the Luo family and Heshun Company. Now that Zhu Jishi has brought Luo Xiangmei and Zheng Hong to Hong Kong, the Lanfang Chinese have no leader, which is convenient for Liu Peng's management.
"Brunei Ringing City?" Of course, Luo Xiangmei understood what Zhu Jishi meant, but she quietly changed the topic.
"Prince Fijri of Brunei promised to build us a port on a piece of land in Bandar Seri Begawan, which can become a base for us to annex Brunei in the future, and let Zhao Daheng run it. Xiangmei, you see that Liu Peng, Han Si, and Luo Junqi are left behind in Lanfang, aren't you still at ease? ”
"Oh, just do as the lord says." Luo Xiangmei nodded, and then looked at Sir Zhu who was smiling, and her mind was a little complicated. Of course, it is haode to be able to stay and fly with her husband, but the power of this Lan Fang cannot be held in person......
Luo Xiangju next to her slapped her face and said with a smile: "Great, I will sleep with my husband with Sister Neng in the future." ”
Listening to her sister-in-law's words, Luo Xiangmei suddenly blushed with shame and glared at her sister-in-law, "Don't talk nonsense......"
Zhu Jishi looked at this pair of flower-like sisters, in a good mood, and said with a smile: "I think Sister Ju's proposal is good, can you do it in the future." ”
"Husband!" Luo Xiangmei was disgusted, "Why are you so unserious?" ”
Not serious? It's just sisters flying, what's not serious? This is completely allowed by the feudal marriage system with Chinese characteristics!
……
Just when Zhu Jishi and the Luo family sisters were drinking and talking about the issue of double flying.
Adjutant of the Dutch East Indies, Adjutant Anthony. Fan. Major Steinberg looked at Zhu Jishi's representative who came to negotiate with him with a face that was difficult to see, Qiu Fatty!
For the Dutch East Indies, the Lanfang Company was not a regime of the same nature as the Sultan of the Princely States, and their leaders also accepted the title of Jiatai canonized by the Dutch East Indies Governor's Office, and an outdated army major was enough to deter them.
But I don't know what's going on, the British Empire suddenly became interested in the small and poor Lanfang, and a Chinese actually got the title of British viscount and jumped up and down in West Borneo to establish the "Grand Duchy of Lanfang". Of course, the Dutch East Indies Governor would not agree, but it was not good to openly confront the British, after all, the Dutch East Indies did not openly annex West Borneo. So Major Anderson was sent to try to sabotage the actions of the Viscount of Zhu Jishi, and the result was ...... Major Andersen had people carried to Pontianak in a thin-skinned coffin!
What made Major Steinberg, who came to deal with the affairs of West Borneo, even more angry, was that Lan Fang not only did not complain about Major Andersen's death, but actually protested against the wicked first! It is hateful to ask the Dutch East Indies to interfere in Lan Fang's internal affairs and promise not to make the same mistake again!
But the most hateful thing is not this, but the one who came to negotiate with him on behalf of the Grand Duchy of Lanfang is actually a British lieutenant colonel surnamed Churchill.
Well, than the position, he was a representative of the British Imperial Army and Colonial Office, or a lieutenant colonel, and he was no more than a major adjutant to the governor of the Dutch East Indies. Compared to the shili behind it, the British Empire is not something that the Netherlands can provoke. It's Bi Dad, the dead fat man in front of him is surnamed Churchill! His father is the Duke of Marlborough! His father was nothing more than a Dutch viscount......
I can't stiffen this waist pole no matter what.
