Chapter 142: Go back to Shanghai again, see my sister, and meet friends
"Okay, let's do it. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Li Yapu paused and said: "Xingyitang has little contact with the gangs in Hunan, Hubei, and Guangdong. β
Chen Wenqiang thought for a while and said, "Try to get in touch with it, it's not a big deal, it's enough to listen to some news." By the way, what kind of disciples can be accepted in the hall recently, bring them here tonight, and I'll see you. β
"There are a few things that can be made." Li Yapu laughed and said, "I'm just afraid that I won't be able to support it, and I want you to select it before you can use it with confidence." β
"Just take them to practice with me." Chen Wenqiang smiled and said: "I want to take over the Guangdong-Hanzhou Railway, there will be a lot of trouble when it is built, it depends on everyone's ability, and I want to promote some brothers." β
"It is best that the brethren may follow more faithfully." Li Yapu remembered something again and said, "Charlie Song has looked for you several times, but I don't know what is going on. β
"Let him go!" Chen Wenqiang shook his head, he didn't want to meet Charlie Song, it was estimated that meeting would be a quarrel and debate, but now it was completely unnecessary.
"It's okay not to see you." Li Yapu said lightly: "This Charlie Song was invited by the U.S. Consulate in Shanghai when the movement to the United States was at its highest, and he didn't know what to talk about, but a month later, he went to the United States, which attracted a lot of scolding. β
Chen Wenqiang thought about it, guessed and said: "These two things may not be connected, they are just coincidences. Forget it, it's none of our business, and I don't want to care. β
Li Yapu secretly glanced at Chen Wenqiang, and said tentatively: "Now, you are not only a big brother, but also a rich man. is still an official, even if you don't want to do some things, don't let people grab the handle. β
Well? Chen Wenqiang was stunned for a moment, turned his head and looked at Li Yapu suspiciously, just wanted to find out the deep meaning of his words, Li Yapu had already slowly spoken.
"It's not the case that the elders are no more. Juniors also have to make an appearance, at least on the surface, which is beyond reproach. As for the old man, I have already sent someone to raise it, I don't have to worry about eating and drinking, I have wine for three meals, he also knows that he is wrong, he is very honest, you don't have to hold grudges. β
Chen Wenqiang turned his head and snorted. Although he has no feelings for this father in his heart, or even resentment, Li Yapu is beyond reproach for doing so, and even eliminates a lot of trouble for him.
"Xiaoxi is a good boy." Seeing that Chen Wenqiang was not angry, Li Yapu smiled faintly: "She came to beg me to move the old lady's grave to Shanghai." I have already sent someone to do this, and moved to the cemetery of all nations, so that the child can have a nearby place to pay tribute. β
Well. Chen Wenqiang responded, his face slightly pale. Still silent. After all, he is not the Ah Fa, and he ignores these things too much. Is it guilty, a little bit, more moved by gratitude, moved by Xiaoxi. Gratitude to Li Yapu.
β¦β¦β¦β¦..
The rain was crackling outside, and the chalk made the occasional screeching sound on the blackboard.
Xiaoxi sat in the third row of seats in front, her hair was always neatly combed into two braids, it was originally a small braid, and now it is a big black and shiny braid. in class. Whenever Miss Roson asked a question, she raised her hand and answered enthusiastically; She also never forgot about her homework, and now her grades are at the top of her list.
"I'm going to boarding school in the UK." The girl next to her whispered to Xiaoxi: "The highest girls' school in the UK." β
Xiaoxi frowned inaudibly, and Miss Rosun was squinting at the class with her short-sighted eyes, wiping her large glasses with a handkerchief.
"I'm going there soon, so what's so strange?" The other girl turned her head slightly and shook her braids.
"Which school and when?"
"What's the matter, Jenny?" Miss Roson asked, in a brisk, man-like voice, "Do you have anything to say?" She put on her glasses and pushed them to the bridge of her nose with her hand.
"No, nothing." The girl hurriedly lowered her head and read the book.
Miss Roson turned to the blackboard and began to write, the chalk rattling in her hand, breaking from time to time.
Xiaoxi wanted to laugh, but held back, but nodded comfortingly to the girl who cast her gaze.
At the end of the last class, Xiaoxi walked out of the classroom, opened the umbrella, and chatted with her classmates while walking. The rain seemed to be falling harder, pounding on the taut surface of the umbrella.
"Xiaoxi, you study so well, aren't you going to study in the UK?" The girl with the foreign name Jenny asked curiously, "Your brother is so powerful and rich, you should ask." β
Xiaoxi was silent for a while, and said a little gloomily: "He is always very busy, sometimes he doesn't go home when he goes to Shanghai, and when I know it, he goes somewhere else." However, he should have been arranged. β
"I want you to go to England and go to the same school as me." Jenny was looking forward to it.
"Then you tell me the name of the school, and I can tell my brother." Xiaoxi smiled and nodded.
"Well, I'll have to go home and ask." Jenny apparently didn't know what the supposedly best school was called.
Walking out of the school gate, Xiaoxi habitually looked at the place where the carriage was parked, which was specially used to pick her and Xiaozhi to and from school, with coachmen and bodyguards. Back at home, there are still the fourth sister and Ah Lian taking care of them.
Well? The carriage was not there, but there was another one with a different style. In a daze, the car door opened, and a familiar face appeared, smiling and waving to her.
The wheels whizzed over the wet forest road, and in the carriage, Xiaoxi hugged Chen Wenqiang's arm, laughing happily and talking happily.
"It's all big girls, you have to be steady!" Chen Wenqiang smiled and said, "I talked to the principal, well, yes, excellent learning, excellent quality. By the way, how is Xiaozhi? β
"Ah, Xiaozhi, he's also very good, and he's studying well." Xiaoxi hurriedly lied.
Chen Wenqiang looked at his sister, rolled his eyes, snorted, and said helplessly: "Forget it, if you don't have that learning head, it's not that blind." β
"That, although Xiao Zhi is not very good at studying, he can be considered passable." Xiao Xi muttered and defended his younger brother, "As long as you don't learn badly, you will have a capable career in the future, and if your brother is here, it will always be arranged for him, right?" β
Hey. Chen Wenqiang shook his head with a wry smile and said, "I'm very busy, what about the family, you, who are a sister, should also urge him more, don't get used to him." This time I-"
"It's hard to get back together. Just let Xiaozhi go this time! Xiao Xiyang begged: "I'll take care of him in the future, can't I?" β
Chen Wenqiang nodded helplessly, stretched out his hand to wipe the moisture from the car window, and looked at the scenery along the way.
The house is still the same, but in Chen Wenqiang's eyes, there is a bit of a decadent atmosphere, it is estimated that he has been in Yazhou for a long time, the blue sky, the sea, the beach, etc., all give people a sense of tranquility and vastness.
"Brother-" Xiaoxi called softly and said slowly, "Erin has gone to the United States." β
Chen Wenqiang turned his head. Blinking his eyes, he remembered that Charlie Song's eldest daughter, he nodded and said, "Study abroad, well, Charlie still has a soft spot for the United States!" β
"My classmate Jenny is going to study in the UK, yes. Leave next year. β
Chen Wenqiang noticed this time and stared at Xiaoxi's eyes. Ban Yan pursed his lips and smiled: "You also want to go to a foreign country to see the world, this is no problem." If you learn English, the most convenient ones are the United Kingdom and the United States. Well, what do you think? β
"I listen to my brother." Xiaoxi pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "Who's knowledge is not as strong as my brother, which country do you say is better?" β
Chen Wenqiang thought for a moment. said: "To be honest, I don't like the United Kingdom, the United States, so let's do it!" Actually, I'd love to have you go to Germany, but it's just a language problemβ"
"Is German hard to learn?" Xiaoxi asked solemnly.
"If you are willing to work hard. Nothing is hard to learn. Chen Wenqiang pondered for a moment and said: "In this way, when Dehua University opens next year, there should be a preparatory class, you go to study for a year or two, and then go to Germany to study." After graduation, you will walk around Europe and the United States and see all countries, then it is called long insight! β
"If my brother arranges it, I will do it, and it will definitely not be wrong." Xiaoxi smiled happily, and then complained: "Brother, I read the newspaper that Yazhou is so good and beautiful, you don't take us to see it." β
"Advertising is only half of what you believe." Chen Wenqiang laughed and said, "It's okay, when you and Xiaozhi have a holiday, I will arrange someone to send you there to play, and by the way, spend the New Year there." β
"The fourth aunt will go too."
"Of course."
"Aunt Sixth and Xiao Nan will also go."
"No problem."
"Where's Ah Lian?"
"You can go as much as you want."
"That-" Xiaoxi lowered her eyelids, her voice lowered, and she couldn't speak.
Chen Wenqiang knew who his sister wanted to say, his face sank involuntarily, snorted, and turned his face out of the window.
"Brother-" Xiaoxi opened his mouth and said in a mosquito-like voice: "He's our father anyway, besides, he has also changed and is not so addicted to alcohol." He used to be poor, and he was upset and did some bad things. But now that you're so famous, it wouldn't be good if people knew about it! β
Chen Wenqiang sighed and wanted to be accommodating, but remembered that he didn't care about his children, and even robbed his children of money to eat and drink, he couldn't help but be angry again, and glared at Xiaoxi fiercely.
Xiaoxi was too frightened to say any more, bit her lip, let go of her hand, and hid in the carriage with some shrunkness.
Silent, only hearing the sound of horses' hooves outside, Chen Wenqiang let out a long breath, wanting to ease the atmosphere, there were two knocks on the roof of the carriage, followed by Feng Dayi's voice, "Big brother, there is a carriage that has been following behind, starting from the school." β
Chen Wenqiang frowned, reached into his pocket, wanted to take out a pistol to check it, glanced at Xiaoxi again, and dispelled this thought.
"Stop." Chen Wenqiang gave an order, reached out for the umbrella, and instructed Xiaoxi, "Stay in the car, I'll go down and have a look." β
"Brotherβare you alright?" Xiaoxi looked at Chen Wenqiang worriedly.
"It's okay, maybe a friend wants to say hello!" Chen Wenqiang smiled, pushed the car door, opened the umbrella, and walked out.
The raindrops crackled on the umbrella surface, Chen Wenqiang held an umbrella in one hand and a pocket in the other, Feng Dayi jumped out of the carriage in a raincoat and stood in front of him for protection, and the two looked coldly at the coming carriage.
The carriage slowed down, the window was opened, and Charlie Song's face was exposed, nodding at Chen Wenqiang with a smile.
β¦β¦β¦β¦.
"Erin said that when I saw you pick up Xiaoxi, I thought she was wrong." Charlie Song invited Chen Wenqiang to sit in the carriage, shook his head with a wry smile, "It's not easy to see you, I just heard that you went back to Shanghai, and the next day I went to Qingdao again." Waiting for you to come back from Qingdao, you have gone to Hankou again. β
"It's hard work, it's not as comfortable as Brother Charlie." Chen Wenqiang smiled reluctantly and nodded at Qinglin and Meilin, who were sitting opposite.
"It's worth the hard work." Charlie Song paused and said, "How long will you stay in Shanghai this time?" If it's convenient, let's talk about it on a certain day? β
"Just today!" Chen Wenqiang pondered for a moment and said, "The schedule is very tight, if I am asked to set a date, it will be really difficult." Come to my house and have a light meal, and I almost know what you want to say. It is estimated that there will be another quarrel, and then go their separate ways. β
"I'm not looking for you to quarrel." Charlie Song smiled helplessly and said, "I really have something to ask for, please help." β
"Raise money for Beichen and prepare for an uprising?" Chen Wenqiang tilted his head to look at Charlie Song, and seemed to have received a positive answer from his expression, and couldn't help but spread his hands and said: "The incident will fail, this capital, don't raise it." Brother Charlie did not hesitate to go to the United States with infamy, I'm afraid it was also for this matter, right? If Brother Charlie orders American goods, then don't worry, this campaign will soon be over. As for Guangzhou, it may be delayed for a month or two, and this will not have much impact on Brother Charlie's business. β
Charlie Song was a little stunned, staring at Chen Wenqiang for a long time before frowning and saying, "Before the incident started, how can you easily judge his failure?" If you can raise millionsβ"
"Millions, tens of millions won't help." Chen Wenqiang waved his hand, nodded at the girl opposite with a smile, and said, "Let's talk so bluntly, we won't teach bad children, right?" β
Charlie Song rolled his eyes and said in his heart: You didn't shy away from it as soon as you came up, and now you remember it again.
"Uncle Chen, why do you say money doesn't help, isn't money important?" Qinglin suddenly asked.
Charlie Song looked at Chen Wenqiang's inquiring gaze, and pointed to the roof of the carriage helplessly, "The coachman is very reliable, and he can't be heard outside the conversation here." β
"There's something wrong with this design." Chen Wenqiang shook his head, not satisfied with this, and paused for a long time before slowly saying: "Money is very important for the revolution, but money alone is not enough. I won't go into this deep, just talk about how many things can be done with a million in Brother Charlie's mouth. For example, if the uprising team is 3,000 people, each person has a quick gun and 50 rounds of ammunition, which is more than 300,000; Each person needs three cents per day for food, and the daily expenditure on food costs exceeds 1,000 yuan; If you rely on the party, you still have to pay the military salary, otherwise who will give you the war and work hard? This dead person should be compensated, meritorious service should be rewarded, and follow-up guns and ammunition must be replenished......" (To be continued. )
