The trip to Cangzhou was successfully completed. also untied Xia Xiaoqing's big heart knot, the so-called revenge of killing his mother disappeared, and the anger in the whole person was dissipated a lot, and by the way, he also helped Chen Zikun to accept a general.

Chen Zikun sees people very accurately, Yan Jinan has a rough and fine personality, calm and capable, much more down-to-earth than Brother Nai, but after all, he is too young and still needs to be trained, so he is ready to send him to the Jiangdong Garrison Brigade to be a soldier after he goes back, and he will be trained for a year and a half.

The next stop is Beiping, Zhang Xueliang has been waiting impatiently, as soon as the special train arrived, he was greeted with a grand welcome, the pomp was far better than before, Yao Yilei and Jianbing have seen this, but Xia Xiaoqing's sister and brother are still the first time to see the world, especially Yan Jinan, where has the stunned boy in the countryside of Cangzhou seen this, he only then understands that his cousin-in-law's official son is several times older than his father and father imagined! Obediently, you and Zhang Shaoshuai are on an equal footing, and you have to do it!

Now Zhang Xueliang is the deputy commander-in-chief of the army, navy and air force, and his military position is second only to Chiang Kai-shek, and the whole of North China is basically his territory, and they all say that the young marshal is a playboy, but after inheriting the throne, he did several things, one is more beautiful than the other, Yi Zhi unified the country, killed Yang Chang, mediated the Central Plains War, and took back the lost Beijing-Tianjin Zhili territory.

Zhang Xueliang is full of pride, more energetic than before, a small banquet on three days, a big banquet on five days, either drinking or dancing all day long, and then listening to plays, opium smoking, surrounded by warblers and swallows, and the gods who live a small life are like fairies, no one dares to say about him, Yang Yuting's example is on display, who dares to touch the tiger's whiskers.

The house in Dongwenchang Hutong is still used as a free dormitory for poor students, and Chen Zikun does not plan to take it back, anyway, Yao Yilei's family has a house in Beiping, and it is more than enough for the family to live in it.

"Da Kunzi, do you remember Zhao Dahai?" Bao Qing suddenly mentioned this old neighbor.

Chen Zikun said: "Remember, what, he came back to visit his relatives?" ”

Baoqing said: "I didn't come back in person, I sent someone to pick up my son, I heard that he was doing a big business in other places, have you heard what kind of business it is?" ”

Chen Zikun sneered: "Of course I know, it's a head-killing business." ”

Baoqing and his family looked at each other.

……

In Beijing for a few days, visiting old friends, paying tribute to the ancestor Liang Qichao, a little free and was pulled by Zhang Xueliang to listen to the play and play cards, once saw a beautiful woman at the card table, elegant temperament, and asked Zhang Xueliang who this lady is, Zhang Xueliang smiled: "When I see Brother Kunwu, I don't often watch movies, this is the famous movie star Ms. Hu Die." ”

Chen Zikun suddenly realized, couldn't help but look at Hu Die twice, casually accosted, and asked her if it was hard to make a movie, and how the film company operated, Zhang Xueliang smiled secretly in his heart, and said: "Change people, you two talk slowly." ”

Hu Die is a person in the Fengyue field, and he is used to acting on the spot, but seeing that Chen Zikun is tall and handsome, and he talks well, not like a warlord at all, but like a professor, he admires it in his heart, and the two talked about speculation, Zhang Xueliang looked back at them while playing cards, and grinned: "Kunwu is really a veteran of flowers, admire, admire." ”

After chatting for more than an hour, Chen Zikun actually got up to say goodbye, Zhang Xueliang thought that Hu Die would go together, but he knew that people didn't mean to go, he thought that these two must have made an appointment to open a room, and he was embarrassed to go together, so he sent Chen Zikun away first, and waited for Hu Die to say goodbye, but Hu Die actually left the cards that played all night.

"Am I looking away?" Zhang Xueliang was very puzzled.

The trip to Peking has finally ended, this is Chen Zikun's second hometown, and it is also the place of his birth, he walked all over the streets and alleys with a pair of legs pulling a foreign car, and every time he parted, he sighed.

The train slowly left Beiping, and Chen Zikun was bored in the box and worked hard to write.

"The master is probably planning for the construction of the country, let's not bother him, Yan'er, especially you, don't go and make trouble for Dad." Yao Yilei said matter-of-factly.

Everyone nodded solemnly.

Chen Zikun used his hard work to concentrate very much, he didn't get out of the box for two days, and when the car passed through Jinan, Han Fuyu, chairman of Shandong Province, specially sent someone to pay a visit, but he didn't pay attention to it, so that his wife was perfunctory.

The special train went to Xuzhou, transferred to the Longhai line, and then transferred to the Jiangbei trunk line built in Jiangdong Province, and finally arrived in Beitai County.

At this time, Chen Zikun also completed his masterpiece, walked out of the carriage and stretched, proudly showing his manuscript to the crowd.

Yao Yilei grabbed it when she went up, but her action was not as good as Xia Xiaoqing's, and she was grabbed by the latter, although Xia Xiaoqing didn't know much, but the four words of the title could still be read: "Lang Zi Yanqing." ”

I didn't know the words in the back, and I was snatched by Yao Yilei again, and read: "It is said that during the period of Huizong of the Northern Song Dynasty, there was a good man in the Daimyo Mansion of Hebei, whose surname was Yan Mingqing, and he was known as Lang Zi Yanqing...... Hahahaha, sir, don't stay in the carriage for so long, just tinker with this thing. ”

Everyone covered their mouths and smiled, and Jian Bing took it over and flipped it over: "Our master's pen is good, and his strength is quite strong, and he has smashed the paper." ”

Xia Xiaoqing said: "What are you writing this thing for, you want to listen to books and go to the teahouse." ”

Yao Yilei said: "The master writes martial arts novels, you don't understand it." ”

The three of them giggled as they spoke, not taking the manuscript that Chen Zikun had painstakingly written seriously.

Chen Zikun said with a dark face: "This is a script, do you understand it?" Scripts, scripts for making movies. ”

Yao Yilei grew her mouth: "Ah, script, master, you are so powerful, I'm so scared." ”

Xia Xiaoqing said: "It's all something I heard from the teahouse booksstand, and I also make movies?" Who's blind to shoot this thing you wrote. ”

Jian Bing said: "This is a bad statement, as long as you want to shoot what the master writes, you can still shoot it, as long as you ......hand over the film, you can still shoot it."

Chen Zikun snatched the manuscript back and said: "You didn't read it carefully, so you said such frustrating words, don't even watch the movie when you make it tomorrow." ”

Everyone still covered their mouths and snickered.

……

With the efforts of a steady stream of American engineers and American-made construction machinery, a modern city has risen from the ground, with wide asphalt roads, towering chimneys, rows of red brick apartment buildings that look like Brooklyn, New York, the river beach is full of camphor trees, and the road is lined with French plane trees.

Of course, this is only the scene in the central and eastern districts, and there are still a large number of temporary houses in the western districts, where tens of thousands of poor people live and provide cheap labor for urban construction.

Chen Zikun's good friend, the magistrate of Beitai County, He Qigong, worked tirelessly, forgot to sleep and eat, and finally completed the construction of Beitai ahead of schedule, and now the electric light factory can generate electricity, and every night, the street lights are extremely bright and more modern.

He Qigong personally took Chen Zikun into the sewer to inspect the sewer, which was the same width as the road above, and four cars could drive side by side, and there were gas pipelines, tap water, and heating pipes parallel to the upper floor.

"Urban construction, can not only pay attention to the surface, half of the money in the construction of Beitai city is spent underground, this is the main pipeline of the city, there are many branch lines, these drainage pipes extend in all directions, even if there is a once-in-a-century rainstorm, the city will not be plunged into the ocean......" He Qigong flashlight to Chen Zikun such as a few family treasures.

"Kezhi, you've worked hard." Chen Zikun shook his hand and thanked him, such construction efficiency can only be completed by him.

He Qigong said: "I helped you build such a modern city, I can also retire, Beitai has basically taken shape, several factories are still in the finishing stage, there is nothing to worry about overall, I should go." ”

"Kezhi, where are you going? Beitai needs you. Chen Zikun was anxious.

He Qigong pointed to his head: "It's not that I don't want to help you, it's really not good for me, I wanted to retire last year to recuperate, I took over your job, and I was tired for another year, you don't think I died young, right?" ”

At this point, Chen Zikun could only accept his resignation, but said: "Brother Ke, I will build a bronze statue for you in the civic square." ”

"Don't, don't." He Qigong refused on the spot, "The heroes of the construction of Beitai are engineers, workers, and people, without them, the city would not have been completed so quickly, to commemorate, just commemorate them, I am just a bureaucrat, running errands to urge the construction period, it is all within the scope of the matter, what is there to commend." ”

Chen Zikun thought so: "Brother Ke is high-spirited, and the people will remember you." ”

……

Beitai is an important base for national defense construction, there are soda plants, acid plants, coking plants and steel plants, with steel can make guns and cannons, and there is a shipyard in preparation.

The National Defense Construction Supervision Commission has an office in Nanjing, and has also set up an office in Beitai, and Chen Zikun personally supervises it; after He Qigong resigned and returned to his hometown in Anhui, he took up the post of Beitai county magistrate and took care of all kinds of opportunities in the newly completed municipal building all day long.

At the bend of the Huaijiang River, there is a peninsula surrounded by water on three sides, which is turned into the private garden of the Chen family, full of flowers, green trees, and in the center of the green lawn, is a classicist style French style white marble palace, the construction of this palace was quietly carried out by Chen Zikun behind his wife's back, and this time he took them to visit.

The three ladies were extremely shocked, if the official residence of Fenglin Road in the provincial capital can be called luxurious, then it is luxurious, the neatly manicured lawn, the murmuring fountain, in the distance are a few sika deer are grazing leisurely, and two white peacocks fly up from the treetops, as if they are in a fairyland.

"Wow, isn't this a replica of Versailles?" Jianbing, who had been to Paris, exclaimed.

The door opens slowly, the palace adopts a combination of Chinese and Western decoration style, mahogany furniture, carpets, murals, chandeliers, furnishings, all reveal a strong Chinese style, the window of the bedroom on the second floor is opened, just can see the rippling Huaijiang River, a little white sail, sand gulls soaring, beautiful.

"We'll live here from now on." Chan had this to say to his family.
