(New books for recommendation, collection!) The support of my friends is my biggest motivation! Please, please, and thank you very much! ）

"That's right! How convenient it is to ask my dad directly for help! I can get it for you as quickly as you want, and besides, I can talk to you on the side, and my dad will definitely agree! Ding Wan'er said happily. She didn't even realize that she had been with Zhang Renjie in the past two days, and there were more smiles on her face than in the previous half a year combined.

Zhang Renjie also quickly thought in his head, if you go to Shanghai this time and find the friend of your father Zhang Youde, it may not be able to help you, even if it is helped, you have to stuff a lot of silver, and things will not be so easy. Instead of this, it is better to ask his father Ding Shicheng for help through the relationship of Guò Ding Wan'er. Changzhen Tonghaidao, Tongguò scholars' memories also know that this is in charge of Changzhou, Zhenjiang, Tongzhou and Haimen Hall, which is one-fifth of the area of Jiangsu Province.

There are not a few garrison troops under the jurisdiction of several prefectures, although many of them are not under the command of Ding Shicheng, but the following inspection divisions and regimental training battalions in various prefectures and counties are still under his dispatch, and it is not a piece of cake for him to buy a few hundred guns!

"This" Zhang Renjie thought about it, but he was still a little hesitant, going to the door like this, is there some suspicion of coercing favor and eating soft rice? But this can't be said directly to Ding Wan'er. To be honest, after getting along in the past two or three days, Zhang Renjie still likes Ding Wan'er very much, although she is a little rude, but she is innocent and cute. I have been exposed to some Western-style education, I am relatively open-minded, and I look like one in a million, and my identity background is also very good, but it is difficult to find such a good girl with a lantern! As for that little temper, hehe, for a woman who has experienced the over-opening of the Celestial Empire in the 21st century, such a temper is already gentle!

"What this, that, go ahead!" Ding Wan'er said with anticipation on her face.

Zhang Renjie smiled and shook off the messy doubts in his head: "Okay, then go and meet the future father-in-law!" "In these years, a good girl has to start early, and a little later will become someone else's daughter-in-law. In this day and age, you can't find a girl over the age of twenty who hasn't been married, unless it's a nun in a nunnery.

"You, you" Ding Wan'er was stunned for a moment, and then she was ashamed, and her white and pure little face suddenly became like a red cloth: "Shameless, whoever is going to marry you!" ”

"Hehe, don't you say that you also like Western-style free love? In the past two days, I suddenly found that I like you very much, so I'll tell you the truth! Zhang Renjie hooked his head and said close to the car window.

"I, I won't talk to you anymore, it's not serious!" Ding Wan'er felt her heart beating hard, although she hated arranged marriages and longed for Western-style free love, but after all, she was not yet eighteen years old, and she and Zhang Renjie had only known each other for a few days, and she had never been in love before, but now she was suddenly confessed, and she was flustered all of a sudden, and she had no idea at all.

Zhang Renjie also stopped talking, and walked forward leisurely on the horse. The two carriages in front and behind them were a short distance away from them and they didn't hear him say anything, as for the handlebar style of this car, it was the old uncle of the Zhang family, who rarely spoke along the way, and he just didn't hear it at this time.

"What's wrong with me?" Ding Wan'er covered her little face in the carriage and thought. "Did you fall in love with this hippie-faced guy? No way! This guy is cold-blooded and unserious, how could he like such a person? But he is so serious when he does things, he is also very humorous and very good at making her happy, he looks good, and his kung fu is so good."

"Oh, what are you thinking?" Ding Wan'er pinched her little face and whispered to herself.

"Wan'er, what did you say?" The voice was so small, Zhang Renjie still heard a little, but he didn't hear what he said.

"Nothing, keep on your way!" Ding Wan'er replied angrily.

After crossing the river, everyone also arrived at the territory of Zhenjiang, Dantu County, which is still the seat of Zhenjiang's government, and the Daotai Yamen and the Futai Yamen are all here. Zhenjiang is an ancient city with 3,500 years of vicissitudes, and has always been known as a city and a forest in the 21st century. It is also the birthplace of Wu culture----- which was once the capital of the Wu Kingdom.

A group of people got off the boat at the foot of the famous Xijin Ferry in Zhenjiang, this ferry port is quite famous, but Zhang Renjie is also a talented standard reader, the history here is still clear. During the Tang Dynasty, Zhenjiang was named Jinling, so it was also called Jinlingdu, and many great poets such as Li Bai and Meng Haoran had waited for the ferry here. The most famous thing in Xijindu is a poem---- in the spring of the first year of Song Xining, Wang Anshi was called to Beijing, from Xijindu to the north, when the boat arrived at Guazhou, he saw the scenery lyrically, and wrote the famous poem "Docking Guazhou": "Jingkou Guazhou is a water, Zhongshan is only separated by a few mountains. The spring breeze and the south bank of the Green River, when will the bright moon shine on me. ”

For a thousand years, Xijindu has been noisy, and at the same time, it has also brought prosperity to Zhenjiang. With the outbreak of the first war and the signing of the Treaty of Nanjing, Zhenjiang, as one of the earliest treaty ports, was valued by the Western powers as much as Shanghai, Ningbo and Guangzhou. The most eye-catching building here in Xijindu here has become the Western-style house in the British Concession, and the invasion of the invaders has made Zhenjiang take the lead in entering the historical tide of modernization, and the people of Zhenjiang have also taken the lead in civilization.

It was the first time for Zhang Renjie to see Western-style architecture in this era, which was not found in Qinghe County. However, looking at the roof of the three-story building in the Naying Concession, I felt really uncomfortable in my heart, followed by anger, and more unwillingness! China must become stronger, and in the future, if there is an opportunity, we will also plant China's dragon flag on the soil of Europe, so that they can taste such a taste!

"Hey, what's the daze, let's go!" Ding Wan'er walked in front and looked back, and saw Zhang Renjie in a daze, and couldn't help but say something.

"Oh, here we are!" Several of their carriages had already driven several coachmen back, and it was not easy for them to get on the boat when crossing the river. Go back, and they'll hire or buy a few wagons from here! Zhang Renjie was in a daze for a moment, and then took Zhang Qishi and others to catch up.

The ten team members are dressed in blue power suits, carrying foreign guns behind them, and their steps are neat, which makes people know that they are quite difficult to mess with at a glance. Even the inspection on the side of Xijindu did not dare to come up and ask. Obviously, looking at people's posture, they definitely have status, how can ordinary people have such elite guards to protect them? !

"Ah, it's home!" Walk through Ximen Street into the new West Gate, and after a while, you will arrive at the Daotai Yamen station, which is still the official yamen, and it is still very magnificent, typical to the typical Chinese building.

There were still dozens of meters away, and the two guards at the door found Ding Wan'er walking in front. A few guards thought they were dazzled, rubbed their eyes and looked again, and sure enough, it was their own young lady.

One immediately ran inside while shouting, "Miss is back, Miss is back!" ”

The other one came up directly: "Miss, Miss, you can come back, my lord has been in a hurry these days, and if there is no news from you, I will be sent out to find you!" ”

"I see. Daddy now? ”

"Yes, here, my lord just came back from Jiangning yesterday, and I heard that I went to find the governor of Caoyun and was discussing with the governor in Jiangning, so we went to ask the governor to let Caobiao's men and horses help you find you. Oh, since Miss Da, your boat suddenly disappeared in Hongze Lake, and the adults are really in a hurry! ”

Zhang Renjie listened on the side, and knew that this Ding Shicheng really cared about his daughter very much, and looked for people everywhere to help him find him, and he didn't hide it, even the gatekeepers knew that the fallen adults were in a hurry! However, this Taiwan yamen is not strict, and some news is exposed, and the secrecy measures are too poor.

Ding Wan'er no longer cared about the doorman, ran directly into the door, and only after entering the door did she turn around and shout to Zhang Renjie: "You also come in first, go to the living room first, and I'll look for you later!" ”

At the gate of this platform, Zhang Renjie would be nothing, if it weren't for Ding Wan'er's words, I'm afraid he wouldn't even be able to enter the gate.

"This, Childe, please inside you! That's it, and they're going to have to wait outside! The guard who had just spoken to Ding Wan'er said politely, of course Miss's friend can't be lazy. But the last ten are obviously guards, and they are still carrying guns, so they can't be put in casually!

"Good!" Zhang Renjie nodded. Then he shouted to Zhang Qishi beside him: "Ten squad leader!" ”

"Here!"

"You take the brothers to the teahouse over there and wait first, and don't go anywhere if I don't come back!"

"Yes!" Zhang Qishi saluted, and then led the team members to the shop with the banner of the teahouse not far from the Daotai Yamen.
