Chapter 36: What He Seeks (I)

"Bet on what?" Paulus glanced back and said, "Bet on this?" ”

On the playground, Fang Jianxiong stood up again, walked firmly towards the damn horse, grabbed the reins, and said viciously: "Boy, if Lao Tzu can't even handle you, how will you get the big Yanma in the future?" Although the Yanma has coarse pores and smells on its body, I have heard from those guys who studied in Eastern Europe that the foreign girls in that place in Ukraine are very good. ”

"Hmm!" Holding his breath, Fang Jianxiong got on the horse again, the old trick of the dark cloud was repeated, a rapid sprint, suddenly stopped, Fang Jianxiong hugged the horse's neck tightly.

"A cigarette, I bet the chief won't fail this time!" Jensen gritted his teeth, as if he wanted to go over and replace Fang Jianxiong's plot in Chapter 36 of the first song.

Paulus smiled and shook his head: "Then our bet can't be made, and I bet that he can win." ”

Jensen was stunned for a moment, and Paulus smiled: "Don't surprise my brother, I just think that I should have some confidence in my superior." ”

At this moment, Fang Jianxiong is like a flat boat struggling in the stormy waves, damn the dark clouds, using all kinds of means, jumping and running, stopping and turning around, stopping the sideline, or combined.

Fang Jianxiong hugged the horse's neck, and wanted to give the damn horse a few punches several times, but he couldn't do it, so in the end he could only grit his teeth and hold the horse's neck tightly. This feeling is like sitting on a roller coaster and a pirate ship in an amusement park, and for a while, Fang Jianxiong felt that his internal organs did not belong to him.

Finally, the horse stopped, and Fang Jianxiong felt that when he slowed down and jogged, he was a little uncomfortable. The spirit of instinctively using up the last bit of strength slackened, and fell off the horse's back with a snap. Tired like a dead dog, Fang Jianxiong lay motionless on his back, secretly regretting his failure, it was really a capsized boat in the gutter, and the wind and waves were coming. Looking back, I still don't know what the thirty-sixth chapter of the first song of the first volume is plotting, how the two German devils are stealing fun.

Closing his eyes, Fang Jianxiong, who had a strong sense of failure, remained motionless, as if he had no strength at all, like a dying man gasping. Until he felt an itchy wetness on his face, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that the dark cloud was licking his face with his tongue.

Seeing this, Paulus shrugged his shoulders and said, "Jenson, when I first set foot in this country, I felt that I was going to fail in this adventure!" I even regretted it! I think it's terrible. ”

Jenson whistled and said, "And now? What does it feel like? ”

Paulus looked at Fang Jianxiong, who was lying on the ground, reaching out to touch the face of the horse's neck, and smiled: "Now I think that with such a chief, maybe this trip to China is not as bad as I thought before, and it should even be very pleasant!" ”

"Hey, Paulus, that damn horse is on its knees, and it's asking its master to ride it."

…………………………

Few people like the winter in Wuhu, it is wet and cold.

This year's wax moon is really a pleasant time for Zhu Xiufeng, the county governor. The large construction site outside the city has brought prosperity to Wuhu County that is rare in winter. The people working on the construction site have enough rice and steamed buns, and the rice merchants in the county can't open their eyes happily. There is also killing pigs, and every day the meat and bones that are most worried about the rest are sent directly to the construction site outside the city, and how much is sent over there. The price of meat in the city has risen by 10%, but the price of rice and noodles has not risen. I heard that Gu Heng of the Eurasia Group said that as long as the price of rice noodles rises, he will not buy rice noodles in Wuhu, but go directly to Xuancheng Guangde.

Seeing that he had entered the wax moon, Fang Jianxiong hadn't gone to the patrol camp to take a picture, which was quite troublesome. Could it be that because the patrol battalion was in arrears for two months, Fang Jianxiong refused to take up his post officially?

As a capable magistrate, Zhu Xiufeng can be said to be better than most of the magistrates of the same era in Wuhu. As the most important armed force in Wuhu, the patrol battalion attaches great importance to the patrol battalion in today's environment where bandits are rampant. After the opening of the port of Wuhu, there were many foreigners, and the city defense was not done well, but it was not a joke.

Last night, the two pipe bands of the patrol battalion found the county government to inquire about the news and asked when Fang Jianxiong would take office. These two actually don't have any support in their hearts, mainly because they have ghosts in their hearts, and the patrol battalion eats 30% of the empty salary, and the previous commander also has a share.

Zhu Xiufeng knows about eating empty salaries, but the world is as black as a crow, and the patrol battalion is like this. The Wuhu patrol battalion eats 30% of the empty salary, which is less, the normal is 50%, and the excessive 70% is eaten. As soon as Shangguan came to inspect, he found some random people to make up a few points, and Shangguan continued as usual as soon as he left. Under normal circumstances, as long as it is not excessive, Zhu Zhixian will turn a blind eye.

In fact, Zhu Xiufeng knew very well in his heart that these two pipe bands were more worried that their positions could not be kept, worried that Fang Jianxiong was young and vigorous, and he was returning from abroad, and there was the support of the governor, so he was afraid that he would not be able to tolerate them.

The sedan chair stopped at the door of Fang's house, and when Zhu Xiu sealed the sedan chair, the two pipe belts waited in front of them, and said with a smile: "My lord, we won't go in, and please say a few kind words on your behalf." ”

Zhu Xiufeng hummed, straightened out the official mansion, and stepped forward. Fang Jianxiong quickly greeted him in the door, and Lao Yuan arched his hand and said: "The old parents came to the door, and Jianxiong missed the welcome." ”

"Supporting the country is trusted by the people of Futai, entrusted with important tasks, and busy with official business. For the sake of official business, it is not a big deal for the official to come to the door. Zhu Xiufeng said politely, followed Fang Jianxiong into the door, and sat down in the living room to speak.

"Fuguo, today is the first day of the lunar month, and it has been a few days since you came back from Anqing to take over as the commander of the patrol battalion, why haven't you officially taken office?" Zhu Xiu's sealing was also direct, the purpose was to see Fang Jianxiong's attitude.

"You say this, this matter is really not in a hurry. New barracks have been set up outside the city, and the most important thing now is to recruit soldiers from the schools, and to ask for young people who have received a new education in the training corps. The school system is three years, and when you come out, you will be treated as a team officer, and those with excellent grades will be sent to Germany to continue their studies. If you don't come today, I'll have to come to you tomorrow and ask you to help me make this happen. Fang Jianxiong explained this, Zhu Xiufeng was immediately relieved, there are more important things for the emotional family.

"That's it! But Fuguo, it's better for you to do your best to take office. The patrol battalion was in arrears for two months, and the county raised a month's salary and handed it over to you, so that the brothers could have a safe year. Zhu Xiufeng spoke while observing Fang Jianxiong's reaction to the arrears.

"Arrears of wages are not a problem, since I have taken over the leadership, I have to make up for the salaries of my brothers. When a soldier eats food, he does a job of selling his life, and no one can be less of this salary. It's just that my lord, there's one thing I have to say ugly things first. Fang Jianxiong's face suddenly sank, he was originally sitting upright, but he also stood up.

Zhu Xiufeng's heart sank, and there was really something wrong with the secret way. "It doesn't hurt to help the country!" I thought it was not good in my heart, but I had to be polite, this kid's backer was Lord Futai, and Zhu Zhixian couldn't live with him.

"That's right, it's been exactly twenty days since I took over the position of commander, but in the past twenty days, has the patrol battalion practiced once? Could it be that without a commander, the bands would not have to train the soldiers? My lord, to put it mildly, I resolutely don't want such a subordinate. Whatever your dissenting opinions, I'm sure I'll send these leaders out of the way. "Fang Jianxiong can be described as a dagger, and his true purpose has been exposed.

Zhu Xiufeng was suddenly embarrassed, this patrol battalion is not the same as the new army, the officers of the patrol battalion grasp the soldiers very tightly, and take them as their own private soldiers. Fang Jianxiong wants to open all the pipe belts and team officers, I'm afraid that it will be messy.

"Fuguo, I'm afraid there's something wrong with this, right?" Zhu Xiufeng hesitated, he didn't dare to make this decision.

When Fang Jianxiong saw his appearance, he really guessed well. So he smiled and said: "In this case, the commander of the patrol battalion, I will never take it seriously." Let's keep the status quo, I'll be satisfied with the teaching team. ”

Zhu Xiufeng couldn't help but feel gloomy, he originally hoped that Fang Jianxiong would be able to bring the patrol battalion out, but he never thought that it was this heart that people would be safe.

……………………

In Anqing, in Feng Xu's study, Li Muyan was reporting to work. This trip to Shanghai was quite smooth, with 1,800 committee rifles and 12 57 fast guns, the price was 20% cheaper than before, and the quality was better than the guns purchased at the Hanyang factory before. More than 2,000 rifles were transferred to Jiangxi, which can be regarded as a good fate.

"With these twelve fast cannons, this artillery battalion can be regarded as erected. The firearms are also replenished, which is a big thing to understand. Fang Jianxiong is really capable, and he spends less money and does things beautifully. Feng Xu praised it, and Li Muyan smiled when he heard it: "My lord, I gave this price in Jiangxi!" After dipping some tea, Li Muyan wrote forty-five on the table. After wiping the tea, Li Muyan was secretly proud in his heart, in fact, he sold it for fifty-five yuan a stroke. said with a smile: "My lord, this matter has really earned face, and I have already handed over the extra money to Madame." ”

The implication is that for 2,000 rifles, Fang Jianxiong gave 30 yuan a shot, and Feng Xu was able to drop 30,000 yuan.

"Mu Yan, you've had a hard time." Feng Xu smiled, but what he thought in his heart was not like this. Of course, Feng Xu is still willing to trust his chief staff.

"Adults are kind-hearted, don't worry, I should leave a lot of big sons. For each cannon, Fang Jianxiong gave me this number. It was also a slap in the face, which Feng Xu understood to be fifty yuan. In other words, Li Muyan dropped six hundred yuan, which is not less, and he took one hundred oceans from Feng Xu a month.

"Also, those rifles, he gave me a whole number." Raising four fingers, Feng Xu said he understood. Staff members are also human beings, and they also have to earn money to support their families. After going out and falling into a thousand oceans, it is not too much to say. The point is that Feng Xu thinks Li Muyan is honest. Money is earned!
