Although he heard that Jiner's grandmother had begun to release the wind to sell the fields in Foshan, Ye Zhao did not take it lightly, and asked Rui Siguang to send people to investigate, the plan of the iron factory is very important, and there is no room for failure.

Rui Si is familiar with the road, in the past few months, in Guangzhou City, Xiguan has gathered a group of scoundrels, and the General's Mansion, the Governor's Mansion, the Right Capital Mansion, etc. have been bought by him, Ye Zhao suddenly found that he has the potential to do intelligence, but he is not forced to learn business, how important is intelligence? Ye Zhao, a modern person, knows very well that every minute and every second is related to life and death.

Don't learn to do business, Rui Si doesn't hurt anymore, and his spirit is refreshing, recently according to the master's instructions, he began to screen the people in the house, etc., although the focus is on the new manpower after coming to Guangzhou, but he didn't let go of the people brought from the capital, and even the four big maids Rui Si secretly investigated whether there was too much contact with outsiders. The master is right, you can buy people, and people can buy your people.

Rui Si was quite interested in this work, and soon had his own set of ways, especially the relationship between the master and Taihe, several people in the house who knew Rui Si really stared at it for a while, including Suna, Rui Si did not let go. The master also said that the most dangerous enemy is often around you.

Although the master will not doubt Suna's loyalty, I Ruisi wants to make it clear, and I will naturally be Ruisi to be this bad guy. The only thing that hasn't been investigated in the house is Bakshi, the person who the master has brought with him since he was a child, if you want to say that Bakshi will have a different heart, it will be unless the world is reversed.

However, in the past, the Taihe received the letter but Rui Si must do the work, Shanghai, outside the customs are sent to the Tai He by people, Rui Si has to go to the Taihe every day to see if there is a letter delivery.

Today, Ruisi is Taihe who came with his master, no way, after returning the oil mill deed to Ruyi's brother Chen Ada, Chen Ada, insisted on seeing the master, as if he didn't want to accept the kindness of Pingbai, Ruyi blocked a few times, did the master see it casually? But Chen Ada's stubbornness was very strong, and he had no choice but to tell his master, who made an appointment to meet Chen Ada's in Taihe today.

With the grace of the master, Rui Si got into the carriage, but he would rather squat in front of the carriage than sit side by side with the master.

This is a carriage with a blue paint carriage, from the outside look seventy percent new, there are a lot of streets in Guangzhou, it is not eye-catching, usually waiting in the Xinfu Inn, the master changed his clothes to go to the inn, and then take the carriage from the inn to Taihe.

There is not much space in the carriage, the seat is covered with new scarlet felt, Ye Zhao sits on it and gently shakes the folding fan, pondering about the recruits, and when he turns his head and sees Rui Si squatting and squatting into a ball, Ye Zhao smiled: "Si'er, you might as well go down and take a walk." ”

Rui Si laughed twice, his lips moved, he wanted to speak and stopped, he wanted to say but didn't dare to say it.

Ye Zhao frowned slightly: "What's the matter?" "It's rare to see Rui Si spitting out, and it's not a good thing to think about it.

Rui Si was bold at first, and carefully told his master about the investigation of the four maids and the dozen or so personal soldiers and servants who came with Yan Jing, and looked at the master's face as he spoke.

Sure enough, the master's face sank, and it was very rare, and the eyes that came to him were as sharp as a knife, Rui Si was half squatting and half sitting, but at this moment he was so frightened that he sat on the car board, as for the trick of slapping his mouth to please the master, he couldn't use it at the moment, and said in a trembling voice: "Master, master, the slave knows that it's wrong, the master ......."

Ye Zhao stared at him for a while, Rui Si was soaked in cold sweat and almost collapsed on the board.

"Si'er, you're really getting bolder." Ye Zhao said coldly.

Rui Si turned over and knelt down with all his strength, kowtowing vigorously: "Master, the slave knows that he is wrong, the master should not drive Rui Si away, and Rui Si will not leave the master even if he dies!" The car rattled, he was really scared stupid, the first time he saw the master so angry, he intuitively felt that the master had the idea of driving himself away.

Ye Zhao sighed softly in his heart, he had been serving him since he was a child, but he didn't want to really have some heart-to-heart communication, and he could faintly see his thoughts.

"Si'er, I know that you are faithful, and you do everything for my good, and you didn't tell me in advance that you wanted to play ugly for me, but you have to know what to do and what not to do, what I should know and what I shouldn't know. I know who is faithful to me, and I know who I should check, but it is not yet time for you to decide. ”

The more he said this, the more severe he became, and sweat poured down Ruisi's forehead.

"Remember what I told you today."

Rui Si kowtowed: "The slave remembers, the master's words today will be remembered for a lifetime!" ”

Ye Zhao turned his head to look out the window and said lightly, "I hope so." ”

Rui Si didn't dare to speak anymore, and shrank in the corner of the carriage, very pitiful.

But Ye Zhao didn't say a word to him again, and even when he got off the side door of the Taihe, Ye Zhao ignored him, and wanted him to remember this day forever.

Rui Si followed behind Ye Zhao, and wanted to help the master when he crossed the threshold, but Ye Zhao frowned, and Rui Si could only take two steps back pitifully and follow behind.

Today, it was a letter from outside the Guan, and the messenger was waiting in the side hall, a young man who looked extremely shrewd, and when he saw Ye Zhaocai, he cut open the mezzanine of the black cloth and took out a letter from it. It is now possible to exchange letters in an open and upright manner, far from being so cautious.

Ye Zhao smiled when he received the letter: "You know me?" Know who I am? ”

The young man said respectfully: "The little one doesn't know, the little one has only seen the portrait of the master, and the general instructed that when he arrived at the Taihe, he should hand over the letter to the master himself, and the general asked the little one to call the master so." ”

Ye Zhao nodded slightly, and said with a smile: "Okay, the letter has also been delivered, go wash your face and take a hot bath, rest for a few days, and then go back to Guanwai." ”

"Yes, little one." The young man clasped his fists and saluted, and Rui Si was busy leading the young man out of the hall, feeling annoyed, not knowing when the master would be able to dissipate his anger.

Ye Zhao opened the letter, looked at it a few times, and couldn't help but be taken aback, Han Jinchun had already fought with the Rakshasa people.

The first encounter was near Hailan Pao on the north bank of the Heilongjiang River, the two teams of 30 people met seven or eight Rakshasas, but they didn't want to suffer losses, the Rakshasa people fired first, wounded more than a dozen Tuan Yong, killed three people, Tuan Yong scattered in panic, and the two teams were evacuated by Han Jinchun.

In the second conflict, Han Jinchun gathered hundreds of regiments to ambush an expedition of more than 20 people in Rakshasa and annihilated the other party under the fierce battle.

Han Jinchun wrote in the letter: "Tuan Yong's fear of the Rakshasa is a little gone, and after careful study, my firearms are sharper, but I am afraid of the retaliation of the Rakshasa Ghost Brigade, and its ships and artillery are difficult to resist, and the enemy has a chance of winning on land." ”

But no, to say that Russia, the firearms now equipped are only equivalent to the technology of Britain and France in the early nineteenth century, and the firearms equipped with the elite of the regiment are indeed more advanced.

In Han Jinchun's letter, he wrote down in detail the establishment of the regimental warriors on a blank piece of paper, and there were 915 regimental warriors equipped with firearms, including 300 small cannons, and the rest of the firearms ranged from shotguns, while the regimental warriors such as sword soldiers, pikemen, and archers were 627 people.

More than 1,500 regiments, Ye Zhao nodded slightly, Han Jinchun and the old master were really powerful. As for the small cannon mentioned in Han Jinchun's letter, it refers to the Enfield 1853 rifle, the most elite front-loading gun, and now the rear-loading gun is just emerging, but the specific power is not as good as the Enfield 1853.

After a firefight with the Rakshasa ghost, Ye Zhao knew that the northern frontier would be restless from now on, although the Russian military strength was still contained in the Crimean battlefield, but in the area of Eastern Siberia, the Russians were afraid that there were more than 10,000 soldiers scattered in several important towns, but there was no railway, such a vast barren land, it was difficult to assemble and transport, and it was far away from the capital, and it would be difficult to supply, which was also the only advantage of the Guanwai Tuanyong.

The canning factory is about to be put into production, but when the time comes, it will be sent to the outside of the customs in a steady stream, and the group warriors will fight guerrilla warfare with the Rakshasa ghosts, which can be regarded as training the team. If you want to say that the team wins, I am afraid that there will be more losses and fewer wins; Second, even if he wins, it will only completely anger the Rakshasas and gather heavy troops to attack, and Tuan Yong has no chance of winning.

I only hope that the Rakshasa people will be prepared when they see the Great Qing Kingdom, and they will retreat in the face of difficulties. However, Ye Zhao also knew that this hope was extremely slim.

"Master, Ah Chen has arrived." Ruisi's voice interrupted Ye Zhao's thoughts, and Ye Zhao nodded: "Please come in." Then he asked, "Did you bring a foreign fire?" Xiguan Foreign Company has matches to sell, which is called "foreign fire" by the locals in Guangzhou, and Ye Zhao can't get it if he wants to correct his name.

"Brought it." Rui Si hurriedly handed over a box of foreign fire, Ye Zhao immediately lit a fire and burned the letter, Rui Si hurriedly brought a small plate and put it on the table, Ye Zhao threw the letter on the fire, and when Chen Adaa came in, the letterhead had been burned to ashes.
