Liuzhou, Admiral Yamen.

Zhang Miaotong is embroidering a plum blossom, she is eight months pregnant, and she is obviously fatter than during the New Year. At this moment, sitting on the edge of the bed, there is a small table under his hand, and there is a voice to respond to his daughter's words. Liu Mengyao is two years old, very lively and energetic. She is very close to Zhang Miaotong, and she is fiddling with the building blocks like this now, and she also says this to Zhang Miaotong from time to time. If Zhang Miaotong suddenly stopped answering her, she would immediately look up from the building blocks and look at her mother.

Zhang Miaotong's face is very ruddy now, and her expression is also serene. The arrival of her mother completely freed her from foreign affairs. Every day, in addition to raising the baby with peace of mind, it is to watch my daughter play under her lap.

Zhang and Li were secretly surprised, she saw that her daughter was worried about the situation in Liuzhou, and she was restless. As soon as that incident was revealed, he became so calm-hearted, and he was so relieved to his uncle that he had no heart and no lungs.

Zhang Li wondered for several days, until he knew the reason from Zhang Miaotong's mouth during a side knock, and he suddenly realized.

"Master, he has come over the battle in the western Xinjiang, and he is still afraid of this small formation in Vietnam? The daughter believes in our uncle's ability to fight. As long as the imperial court doesn't do stupid things to destroy the Great Wall, you just wait for the good news! ”

Zhang Li then remembered that his daughter had survived three years of hard life before. Now this battle really can't be compared with Western Xinjiang. I am also happy to be raised by my own daughter.

/ In the kitchen, Zhang Li lifted the lid of the casserole, scooped a little soup with a long spoon, and tasted it first. "No! Simmer for another two more moments. The cook watched carefully, and then took the maid to the main room.

Zhang Miaotong lives in the main house, and the boss has a courtyard. The study, wings, and small flower halls are all available. The kitchen is connected to a pyre. There is also a sweet water well, all in the small side courtyard where the gate on the west side of the courtyard leads.

Zhang Li had just stepped through the west side door. The sharp-eyed maid exclaimed, "Ah, isn't that the fifteenth and seventeenth masters?" Running so fast......"

Zhang Li looked up hurriedly, only to see Zhang Shouxun's back across his eyes. "Ah, what's going on? Why is it in such a hurry? Zhang Li didn't see Zhang Shouyan, but she knew that the maid at hand would never dare to deceive herself with this. At the same time, she also knows that Zhang Shouyan, an uncle, is not a prodigal person.

"Go, go—" Her heart thumped and jumped. A premonition told her that it must have something to do with her aunt.

Haven't walked into the house yet. Zhang Li heard Zhang Shouxun's extremely excited voice, as well as the joyful voices of a room of maids, and her nervous mood immediately changed. From apprehension and anxiety, to endless joy......

"Mother came just in time. My lord, Vietnam won the battle and annihilated 3,000 Fayi. My mother passed a word to the account kitchen for me, today there is no distinction between the top and the bottom, add two plates of meat and vegetables, and put a month's monthly money......"

In addition to Zhang Shouyan and Zhang Shouxun in the house, there is also Fan Debiao next to Liu Xian. Annihilated 3,000 Fayi...... Zhang Li was completely engulfed by the tide of surprises.

"Companion star. Uncle, did he really destroy 3,000 Fayi in Vietnam? ”

"Haha, old sister-in-law, Yuan Du really won a big battle in Vietnam. The captured Fayi alone captured two thousand, as well as two Fayi generals. This thirteen-year shame of the Snow Country Dynasty is also-" Zhang Shouyan laughed loudly. The excitement in my heart is beyond words. It seems that a big stone has been removed from the heart, and the whole person is refreshed to the point of excitement.

Compared with Liu Xian's several great victories over the Russians in Western Xinjiang, although he only won another 3,000 legal persons today. It feels completely different.

Liu Xian officially sent the good news to Beijing, from Zhennanguan into Guangxi. All the way north, then spread all the way. On the day Fan Debiao arrived in Liuzhou. Kang Guoqi and Fuer Guochun of Nanning and Taiping also got up from the place, and the honor guard turned back to Guilin.

Liu Xian won. The capture of two French generals and two small soldiers was a great 'mistake', and they all became insignificant in the face of this victory. It was a pity that Foer Guochun communicated with Deng Ting, the political envoy of Guangdong Province who was stationed in Lianzhou, and sighed in the letter: The cornucopia of Qinnan Iron and Steel Plant has no chance with the 'imperial court' for a short period of time.

……

Zheng Yiming got into the carriage with a calm face, held the carriage board, looked at the floor of the car painted vermilion, and what he saw in his eyes seemed to be a pool of red blood, which turned out to be a whirlwind, but fortunately, the son next to him held his arm, so he didn't fall down.

"Daddy!" Zheng Liguang looked at his father nervously, what's wrong? My father's body is obviously very tough, less than fifty years old, and he can be called in the prime of life. Why did you seem to be going to plant headlong just now? In the past two years, the Zheng family of Liuzhou, under the leadership of his father Zheng Yiming, has operated water and land transportation, especially the west and north routes by land, and the scale of the horse gang has expanded by more than three times, and the entire family business has become more and more first-class in Liuzhou in one fell swoop. Zheng Yiming is the heaven of the Zheng family, Zheng Liguang really can't imagine how much impact his father will have on the Zheng family.

Zheng Yiming leaned on the carriage, his eyes closed, he couldn't open them for a long time, and he didn't want to open them. If you make a mistake, you will lose the whole game. The glory of the Zheng family's horse gang that he has achieved in the past two or three years, is he going to destroy the Zheng family single-handedly?

Zheng Yiming relied on the in-demand goods in Liuzhou Industrial Park to vigorously develop the scale of the caravan to the west and to the north of the land transportation, he bet on this step, those in demand goods in the eastern part of Guangxi have a market very much, to Guizhou, Yunnan, it is even more demand. Therefore, the Zheng family's horse gang expanded, and the Zheng family's reputation and status among the gentry in Liuzhou continued to rise, and in two or three years, they had already advanced from the second rate to the first-class level.

But when Liu Xian wrote to the imperial court to build a railway, Zheng Yiming made the wrong second most important move in his life. He is opposed to the establishment of a railway, which is an obvious reason, once the Guiqin Railway is completed, the business opportunity of the Zheng Jiama Gang for the entire northern line will be over. However, the people who oppose the establishment of the railway do not know him, and the power of a small Zheng family is not on the table in the face of such a major event. If Zheng Yiming only opposes it, it will be fine, Qin Jun is very generous, and it is impossible to do anything to the Zheng family because of this.

Zheng Yiming's mistake was that when he faced the slave Guotai sent by Fuer Guochun, he couldn't help but get on Guotai's ship. Because he wants to be on the list of Fol Guochun's ship!

Now, Foer Guochun is no longer coming to Liuzhou, and Guotai's ship is directly sunk, and he himself was rescued by his master Foer Guochun. But Fuer Guochun won't save the Zheng family, the Zheng family has already fallen into the water! It's just not drowned yet.

As far as Zheng Yiming knows, there are many gentry in the entire Liuzhou territory who have no long-term vision like themselves. Many of them were still in the previous two or three years, relying on the 'foreign affairs' of the Qin army to make a fortune.

That's why it seems that this group of people is especially not a thing, especially hateful.

Objectively, if the forces of this group of gentry are completely united, then the local strength is not weak. Qin Jun retorted that he wanted to eat these 'ungrateful' guys, but he really couldn't do it for a while.

But eight out of ten people didn't think about it. Zheng Yiming clearly sees this, so he knows even more how absurd the joint confrontation is.

Since the good news from Vietnam arrived, Zheng's house immediately received several invitations. Zheng Yiming turned a deaf ear and turned a blind eye. Now he is not going out to those banquets, but directly to the Admiral's Yamen.

Zheng Yiming would leave a famous post there, as well as a batch of generous gifts, and then take a letter that he wrote in his study after making a decision, and go to Zhang Shouyan's house, which is not far from the Admiral's Yamen.

What Zheng Yiming hopes for most now is that he is the only one at the door of Shangzhang's house.

……

In Zhang's mansion, which is less than 200 meters away from the Admiral's Yamen, there are not only Zhang Shouyan, but also Zhang Shouxun.

It has been a day since I received the news of Vietnam's victory, and Zhang Shouyan and Zhang Shouxun's excitement has not yet calmed down. After receiving the greeting post handed over by Zheng Yiming, this high spirit took another step forward.

"This kind of dog that is not well fed, what good does my brother do when he sees him?" Zhang Shouxun was young and vigorous, and he was the most hostile to people like the Zheng family, who obviously relied on the Qin army to make a fortune, but easily leaned to the opposite side at a critical moment.

Zhang Shouyan smiled softly and told the housekeeper, "No! ”

But it is not as pure hostility as Zhang Shouxun, but it has a sense of prestige.

In the formation of a force, the leading brother cannot only have fame, but not majesty. To train the younger brother below, you must hold a stick in your hand. If Qin Jun can forgive people like the Zheng family, who will make mistakes in the future, can they still be punished? Can that still convince the public?

"It's a pity that Zheng Yiming is a person. He has courage and a smart brain. Zhang Shouyan sighed slightly, if Zheng Yiming didn't take this wrong step, he would be able to enter the circle of Qin Army's foreign affairs. The previous Zheng family has already entered the scope of investigation. "I couldn't hold my breath, and when I saw the envoy, I was confused."

"The wind knows the grass, and the board knows the loyal ministers. The Qin army had not experienced twists and turns, and the industrial park developed smoothly, and a large number of people came around. How many of them are really with us?

In the eyes of the younger brother, it's good that this happened. It is giving us the opportunity to recognize the true face of people. ”

Zhang Shouxun didn't feel sorry for the Zheng family at all. After all, he had just arrived in the Qin army for a short time, and he didn't know how difficult it was for the Qin army to expand his influence in the hearts of the local gentry little by little over the years.

In Zhang Shouxun's view, any group is a pyramid model. The top group of people is always in the minority. And how to choose this small number of people? In addition to looking at the quality and efficiency of their work, we should also look at their hearts!

The Zheng family belongs to people who can't have a good heart, so no matter how talented Zheng Yiming is, it is not in the scope of consideration.

Zheng Yiming, who was outside the door of Zhang's mansion, fainted after hearing the words 'my master is not a guest'...... (To be continued......) R1292
