Chapter 385: The Situation Is Stronger Than People

On the morning of the third day of the Lunar New Year.

Zhu Daolin, who returned to modern time and space, walked into Chu Mei's house in the western suburbs of Longquan with rich gifts, and together with Chu Mei, who was extremely happy, he greeted the elders who were happy to open their faces.

At noon on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Zhu Daolin and Chu Mei returned to Qixia's house with large bags of Longquan susvenirs, put down their things and helped their parents Zhang Luo's New Year's dinner.

Less than four o'clock in the afternoon, the old and young of the Liangcheng family and Lu Jianmin and his wife arrived one after another, and the three families toasted together to celebrate the Spring Festival, and reached an agreement during the banquet:

The three families took a six-day road trip to Huangshan to see the snow, then stayed in Hangzhou and Suzhou for one day each to visit friends and family they hadn't seen in years before returning home!

On the twelfth day of the first lunar month, Zhu Daolin, who had recovered physically and mentally after a week of playing, sent his satisfied parents and Chu Mei home, and then declined the invitation to the grand festival on the fifteenth day of the first month of Maoshan Yuanfu Palace, and flew to the capital of Guizhou Province by plane at noon the next day.

……

……

On the fifteenth day of the first month, just after midnight.

Zhu Daolin, who hurried back to the late Ming Dynasty, rushed to the military port on the north bank of the Yingzhou Tamsui River with 12,000 flintlock guns, 5,600 Longquan embroidered spring knives, 3,000 tons of cement and 1,500 tons of steel.

In the following three days, Zhu Daolin inspected the mining of two coal mines and one sulfur mine non-stop, attended the groundbreaking ceremony held by the Tamsui Shipyard, the Nanshan Gun Factory, and the Hot Spring Textile Factory, and did not end his busy trip until the late night of the 19th day of the first lunar month, and returned to the Heshan Villa in the modern time and space in the early morning of the next day.

Zhu Daolin, who returned to the bustling city, finished talking on the phone with Song Shaojun, who was far away in the capital, and his heart was full of doubts and melancholy.

He put down his phone and immediately went online to check his UBS account. Sure enough, I saw that the deposit balance had increased by US$77 million, which was just three days after being transferred to the account, which was exactly the same amount of RMB 520 million he had invested in Tangshan Film and Television Base.

In the past two months, Zhu Daolin would talk on the phone with Song Shaojun, who had returned to his home in the capital to "recuperate", and in the call on the night of the Lantern Festival, Song Shaojun was still full of interest and affection. Never mentioned anything about business.

Zhu Daolin didn't know what had happened, so Song Shaojun converted all his investments into dollars without his consent.

Although Zhu Daolin never cared about whether the film and television base was profitable or losing, before the Spring Festival, Song Shaojun talked on the phone about the idea of packaging the film and television base for listing, why did he suddenly make such a big change?

Could it be that the Song family put their hand in?

Zhu Daolin, who was full of doubts, stared at the smartphone with the screen darkened for a long time, and his mind was full of Song Shaojun's voice and smile.

After dawn, Zhu Daolin, who had been pondering for most of the night, pressed the shortcut button again, wanting to ask him what happened to his lover who was in deep pain and difficult to give up. But at this time, Song Shaojun's mobile phone was already turned off.

……

……

Inside the Qianqing Palace in the Forbidden City.

The young Emperor Chongzhen faced Zhu Daolin's short 100-word recital, his heart was full of doubts and melancholy, this tone of respectful, simple content of the recital issued from Baoshanwei, through the Nanjing Five Military Governor's Mansion, before and after only 16 days, but for the anxious and anxious Chongzhen Emperor, these 16 days as long as 16 years.

"I'm sure you've seen it...... Zhang Yixian, tell me about it. Is Zhu Aiqing estranged from me? Emperor Chongzhen's sudden inquiry frightened the three eunuchs standing on the side to tremble.

Zhang Yixian bent down in fear: "Slave...... The minion felt. General Zhu's meaning was very clear, and he made it clear that he would cross the sea by mid-February to pick up Phi Island and Guanglu Island, and he would personally lead his soldiers to go, and the deadline was half a month earlier than the saint expected. ”

From this point of view, General Zhu is even unwilling. and did not dare to openly disobey the emperor's order. ”

Listening to the words of Zhang Yixian, who is known as the "Little Zhuge of the Inner Court", Emperor Chongzhen's irritable mood was much more relaxed, he thought about it, and looked at Cao Huachun, who was bent down and did not squint, and asked loudly: "Old Cao." You have the most contact with Zhu Aiqing, you talk about it. ”

Cao Huachun knew Emperor Chongzhen's character well, and knew very well what the emperor wanted to hear at this time, so he said something with a smile.

"The minion noticed a detail!"

Cao Huachun narrated his analysis: "General Zhu mentioned Liugong Island off the coast of Weihaiwei in the recital, although it was only a sentence of 'planning to build a port on Liugong Island to transfer grain and grass', but it was enough to see General Zhu's shrewdness, and he must have known that Dengzhou and even the whole of Shandong would not give him any help, so he chose to build a large number of buildings on the small Liugong Island." ”

"Only by building wharves, warehouses and barracks on Liugong Island can we have a support for Phi Dao and Guanglu Island, which are hundreds of miles to the north, and their role is as important as Dengzhou is to Ningyuan and Jinzhou."

"As far as the slaves know, Liugong Island is a grassy hill on the sea, only a few miles long and wide, hanging alone on the sea seven or eight miles east of the Weihai Acropolis, since the Wanli period after the extermination of the Japanese invaders, the Ministry of War and the Shandong Political Envoy no longer pay attention to Weihaiwei, but instead operate Dengzhou, which is closer to Liaodong and has more convenient transportation and more population, resulting in Weihaiwei gradually being deserted, and Liugong Island, which is far away from the land, is no one to pay attention to."

"When General Zhu is unable to obtain Weihaiwei, it is necessary for General Zhu to choose Liugong Island to settle down...... From this point of view, General Zhu is still able to take into account the overall situation. ”

Emperor Chongzhen nodded frequently, feeling a little guilty in his heart, but he was soon annoyed by Zhu Daolin's farewell, causing Qin to rush to Weihai to announce the decree to him.

Although several generals under Zhu Daolin's command explained that he had gone to Yingzhou, Emperor Chongzhen thought this was an excuse, and Zhu Daolin must have been angry after learning that he had not been appointed as the governor of coastal defense.

If it weren't for internal and external troubles and pressure, Emperor Chongzhen would definitely reduce the unruly Zhu Daolin to the people and never hire him.

Cao Huachun saw the young emperor slowly stand up and walk towards the large map hanging on the west wall, and immediately glanced at Wang Chengen and Zhang Yixian, and silently followed.

Emperor Chongzhen stood in front of the map, raised his head and stared at Liugong Island, which was just a dot on the map, and then looked at the scattered islands off the west coast of Korea, and it took a lot of time to confirm the location of Phi Island, and he couldn't help but sigh faintly:

"I didn't expect that a small island would become a strategic place that would determine the situation in eastern Liaodong, and I don't know if that small land can support thousands of people and horses?"

"The saint can rest assured, Mao Wenlong used Phi Island to feed tens of thousands of people back then, how could General Zhu, who was both civil and military, and rich in the world, be worse than Mao Wenlong?"

The corners of Zhang Yixian's smooth mouth showed a hint of imperceptible ridicule, but the words he said sounded like a heartfelt compliment to Zhu Daolin.
