Chapter 59: The Wedding
August 1, 1921
Today, the whole base was very lively, and in the conference room, a group of high-ranking generals of the People's Army were chatting and talking inside. A relatively large guest room opposite the conference room was also very lively, and it was full of officials from the Liangguang government.
However, both groups of people were invited by Chen Shao, and the reason is very simple, Chen Shao is getting married today.
However, Chen Shao did not plan to handle his marriage with great fanfare, and he also stipulated that no one was allowed to give gifts, and it was okay for people to come. In addition to the original senior generals, the People's Army has also invited many cadets from the first phase of the Chinese Military Academy. Government officials only invited a few, in addition to Kong Hong's elders, they also invited Wei Ren, Zong Li, and Liu Qing, and many scientists and executives of Longteng Group were invited. And Xie Yuxin's relatives and friends are not few, there are no relatives, but there are a few friends. However, compared to Chen Shao's identity, this wedding is very simple, much simpler than that of ordinary families. The number of guests is less than a hundred.
And now Xie Yuxin has been living in the base, and a wedding car took Xie Yuxin out for a walk and then came in, just for a show. The wedding banquet was arranged by Chen Shao in a private capacity with Kong Wenhong's wife Xiaocui, and all the people who were busy before and after were Chen Shao's guards. There is one biggest difference in this wedding banquet, that is, the whole video recording, which was specially arranged by Chen Shao, which is also a good memory for the two of them in the future.
"Worship heaven and earth!!"
"Second worship of the high hall!!"
"Husband and wife say goodbye!!"
Under the auspices of the wedding master of ceremonies Jiang Baili, this original Chinese classical wedding also came to the most critical moment.
From beginning to end, Chen Shao didn't see the bride's pretty face hidden under the red hijab, of course, he didn't wait until the novel would inevitably interrupt the wedding episode, the whole day was full of happy occasions, and he was happy to marry a beautiful woman who had been in love for many years.
After the various ceremonies were completed, Chen Shao did not send him into the cave room with the bride, after all, there were still a number of military and political dignitaries here.
Chen Shao took the bride who unveiled the red hijab and walked to the banquet hall, the bride was so ashamed that her face was flushed, her phoenix eyes were wet, and the red bride's wedding dress was fairy-like and beautiful.
"Ladies and gentlemen, today is my Chen Shao's big day, don't say more, thank you. Sitting here today are my brothers who started out, my old friends for many years, and people who have made major military, political, economic, and social contributions to our two countries. For the public and private, I would like to take this opportunity today to thank you. Today's wedding banquet, I Chen Shao did not make it very grand, but it is definitely in line with the regulations, and I hope that all the powerful gentlemen in the future can take this as the standard, and should be simple. I'll do it first as respect, everyone is free!! ”
Chen Shao simply pointed out his meaning in a few sentences, thanked and reminded, and the wedding banquet entered the main topic. However, although the words of doing first for respect have been fulfilled, the words of everyone who are casual have not been fulfilled.
"Bridegroom, do you think it's appropriate for you to leave now? Everyone said, shouldn't you line up to toast! Wei Ren was the first to stand up and said. In fact, he and Zong Li only learned today that the original chance encounter, Chen Shao, who was sitting with them for dinner, was that Chen Shao.
"Yes! At the beginning, you also said that the bride is already your wife, and she should be punished! Zong Li also coaxed.
Hearing that the civilian officials began to force the wine, the military attachés did not show weakness, and more than a dozen senior officers began to rise up to toast.
"Okay, manly man, I'm afraid that this little wine won't work." Chen Shao is only in his twenties, and when he was cheered by everyone, he was naturally in good spirits at happy events, drinking one cup after another. As a result, he was drunk on the spot.
In the afternoon of the next day, Chen Shao walked out of the room with a red face, ready to start a new round of work.
Others were stunned when they saw the bridegroom start work the next day. In this regard, Chen Shao only said lightly: Now is not the time to enjoy life.
Sitting on the desk, Chen Shao thought about it, picked up a report and read it, it was a shipbuilding report.
The construction of the aircraft carrier and the battleship will be completed in one year, and the report also applies for the construction of two more battleships and two aircraft carriers, and a special medical ship has also been designed and has already begun construction. This medical ship was designed by Chen Shao with Chen Fu and the doctors, and its main function is to rescue soldiers in wartime, and it can also be used as a marine hospital in peacetime. The tonnage of this medical ship reached 65,000 tons, and it contained twelve surgical operating rooms with seven hundred beds.
After reading the report, Chen Shao took the pen and wrote on the back of the medical ship: Shennong. Then the two behind the battleship were changed to one, and the aircraft carrier did not change.
After reading the Navy report, I picked up the Army report and read it. Since the capture of the two provinces, the two provinces have started a new round of anti-bandit operations to nourish the war and cultivate reserves. After three months of suppressing bandits, bandits of all sizes in the two provinces were either annihilated or fled to other provinces. In the face of the powerful firepower of the People's Army, there is no chance to fight back at all, no matter how high the mountains and steep villages are, everything is in vain under the offensive of the People's Army. Although there were casualties in the three-month anti-bandit People's Army, the casualties were not large, and they were still within the acceptable range of Chen Shao.
Regarding Chen Shao's anti-bandit actions, newspapers have also followed up and reported. Many people called Chen Shao a bandit warlord. The people in the jurisdiction are more supportive of Chen Shao, especially the major chambers of commerce in GD Province, GD as the richest province at that time, there are a lot of bandits large and small in the whole province, and many chambers of commerce have to pay a lot of protection fees every year.
And Longteng Group is equivalent to the God of Wealth for various chambers of commerce. At present, there are many chambers of commerce in the country that act as agents for the goods of Longteng Group, and then they sell them to the whole country. There are also many private factories that are growing rapidly with the support of Longteng Group. In the past, in the competition with foreign factories, the Chinese side was at a disadvantage, mainly because the performance and quality of goods were not as good as those of foreign factories. Now under the technology of Longteng Group, they have got rid of the predicament, and now many goods are stable to foreigners, and sales are also very good, many Chinese people are specially buying Chinese products. There are also many people who have started factories with the support of Longteng Group, but now they are all raw material factories, mainly providing raw materials for Longteng Group.
Then he looked at the harvest report of the new rice, and after Chen Shao finished reading it, a satisfied smile appeared on his face. In the eyes of the Chinese, grain fields are the most important, and grain can be produced in large quantities, which is more important than opening a large number of factories, which is why Chen Shao has been vigorously developing seed bases. In this report, the cultivation status of new rice has been described in detail, and after several years of hard work, a new rice variety has been cultivated. And the effect is very good, now the new rice ordinary field can produce 500 kilograms per mu, the better land can reach 700 kilograms, and some special land can reach 1000 kilograms. The results of this report are comparable to the rice yields of later generations. For Chen Shao, he doesn't change how much money he gives.
After reading it, Chen Shao directly picked up the pen and wrote: Immediately start cultivating new rice seeds, and strive to all farmers can receive new seeds in the spring of next year.
After finishing writing, Chen Shao leaned directly on the chair and slowly thought: Now this seed should be an intermediate seed, and the intermediate seed can achieve such a yield, so if you make a high-grade or perfect seed in the future, what else to worry about in the future. When the time comes, everyone can open their bellies and eat as much as they want. Farmers don't have to worry about going hungry, so their first goal can be achieved.
