"Oh?"

Yao Fan asked, "You introduced me?" ”

Li Jingfang said with a smile: "Brother Yao, if what you say is true, our Great Qing Kingdom will definitely call you to soar." ”

Yao Fan smiled and said nothing, a Great Qing Dynasty that uses a wooden-hulled sailboat with a displacement of more than 1,300 tons as a cruiser, I will sell you a 2,000-ton iron-hulled warship, is it very rare to soar?

"Then there's Brother Lao Li." Yao Fan said lightly.

Then the four of them chatted eagerly for a while, the topic was always inseparable from Yao Fan's thrilling encounter, Yao Fan said the process very simply, and said that there was no need to report to the official, otherwise there would be constant trouble in the future.

When Yao Fan got out of the Li family's yard, he got together with his own guys. Yao Fan took out the silver and asked the guys to buy a fat pig from the Wang family in Shilibao, and asked the Wang family to help kill it, and everyone had a good meal to celebrate. After the fat pig of more than 200 catties was killed, the onlookers drooled out, this meal of pig-killing vegetables and green onion stew, not only the Yao guy ate meat and ate all-you-can-eat, but even the Li family also got a bowl of stewed pork with green onions, drinking soup and eating meat, very happy.

After eating the pig-killing dish and stew that night, everyone was overjoyed and celebrated Yao Fan's safe return this time.

Yao Fan pulled Zhou Si to a secluded place to speak, and instructed Zhou Si to go to the side of the official road outside Shili Fort to find a single old locust tree with a thick and thin hug, scrape off the bark, engrave a medicine word, and instructed him not to mention this matter to anyone.

Zhou Si got Yao Fan's order, and he was puzzled and happy in his heart, what he didn't understand was that this matter was strange, and he was happy that the owner could hand over such a confidential matter to himself, obviously because of his great trust in himself.

When Zhou Si came back and reported to Yao Fan separately that the task was completed, Yao Fan was relieved.

Yao Fan didn't pay much attention to this gang of horse bandits at first, thinking that they were few people, a group of rabble, and they couldn't make a big deal, but I heard that they had a stockade, and there were more than 1,000 people of all ages and children in the village, which moved Yao Fan.

"That's a base, right? No matter how small a fly is, it is meat, and it is always helpful to be able to catch it. Yao Fan thought.

Next, on the road to Jinan Mansion, the wind and waves are calm.

Because of traveling with the Li family, Yao Fan's caravan was also slowed down, and when he arrived at Jinan Mansion, eight days had passed since the day of Shilibao's departure.

In the past eight days, the Li brothers have shown an amazing educational process, and they have read all the five sets of books that Yao Fan gave them, a total of thirteen books, and have asked Yao Fan endless questions all day long, and many questions can only be answered after thinking for a long time.

Yao Fan could see that among the three people, the youngest Li Jingxuan was a girl, who was relatively shy and didn't ask questions in person, and often asked Li Jingshu to ask questions on her behalf; Li Jingfang relied on his identity, and felt that he wanted to sit on an equal footing with Yao Fan and discuss the world, which was an equal relationship, and it was not easy to always ask for advice, so he often pondered the answer by himself; On the contrary, it is Li Jingshu, who has the least psychological burden, and chases Yao Fan all day long:

"Brother Yao, why does the King of England let the financial power in the hands of Parliament?"

"Brother Yao, why are the German states willing to give up their respective tariffs and unite with Prussia?"

"Brother Yao, why is the red-haired Netherlands, a sea coachman, just a small land, not swallowed up by the surrounding Tessie powers?"

"Brother Yao, why would a powerful country like Britain tolerate the rebellious cession of the United States?"

"Brother Yao, why would the Russians find an old German lady who can't even speak Russian as their queen?"

"Brother Yao, now that Napoleon III has fallen, will the French Third Republic reconcile with me in the future? Return my subject state of Annam? ”

This kid is like a living 100,000 whys, and he never tires of Yao Fan, but considering that he is Li Hongzhang's own son, Yao Fan has to press his heart and be irritable, patient, and explain to this kid one by one.

Eight days later, Yao Fan has become a strange person in the world who reads thousands of books and travels thousands of miles in the eyes of the three members of the Li family, even including Fu Bo. is even more regarded by Li Jingshu as a guiding light and a senior brother who is half a teacher and half a friend, and he usually acts more and more respectfully.

Yao Fan has really come into contact with the style and family style of the noble literati of the Qing Dynasty these days, and he saw that the three brothers of the Li family always got up on time at 5 o'clock every morning, and copied 1oo big characters before eating breakfast, and he was also very impressed.

It's just that Yao Fan has to be served by others when these three boys are dressed and shoeed, and his mood is delicate.

Yao Fan once listened to Li Jingshu on the road, saying that his family's family rule is to clear his throat first when he gets up, and he says, "Rise!" ”。 So he stretched out his hand, and stretched out his hand, and put on his clothes, and then stretched out his feet, and stretched out his boots, and then stood up, and his robe was wrapped around and fastened. You can't stumble in the middle, otherwise you can punish the subordinates who serve according to the family rules.

Li Jingshu boasted to Yao Fan, saying that his personal servant was nimble and quick-witted, and was not inferior to his personal servant of Lao Tzu.

Yao Fan felt very uncomfortable when he heard this, and felt that the two-faced nature of these people was really amazing, while reading the books of sages and longing for civilization, he was insensitive to the slavery and inequality around him. He didn't know if it was hypocrisy or subtlety. He wished it was the latter.

At ten o'clock in the summer morning, the sun was already dark.

The loess on the official road is dry and hard and cracked, and it is bumpy.

The weeds on both sides of the road were sparse and crawling on the ground, just waiting for a heavy rain to spread like madness all over the land.

The breeze in the wilderness, constantly blowing, makes people feel unsweltering.

Yao Fan looked at his hands holding the bicycle faucet and sighed, these days, these days, these white hands that used to be soaked in factories and offices, the back of the hand has completed the exposure process from white to red, and then from red to black to thick.

Listening to the tinkling of the copper bell hanging on the mouth of the horse cage in the Li family's convoy, melodiously spreading into the distance, Yao Fan slowly pedaled the car and followed the convoy unhurriedly. Next to him was Li Jingshu, like a fart, also riding a bicycle, walking side by side with him.

Suddenly, the sound of horses' hooves came from the wind ahead, and the sound grew from far to near, from small to loud, and finally the drum beat sounded in front of the convoy like a rapid beat.

Everyone was immediately alarmed, the convoy stopped moving, and Fauber took his family to the front to take a look.

I saw that there were 12 cavalry officers and soldiers in front, and the first one of them grabbed the horse's head with a sound of "oh~~~" more than 20 meters away from the convoy, and skillfully turned over and dismounted. After he pedaled forward and ran in small steps for more than a dozen steps, when he saw Fu Bo's face clearly, he immediately fell to the ground in front of Fu Bo, and shouted in his mouth: "Mark the Shandong General Zhou Juerong, see General Duan!" ”

When Fu Bo heard this, he was silent for a moment as if he hadn't heard it, and said, "There is no General Duan here, I am the steward of the Li family, Duan Fu." ”

Zhou Juerong raised his head, opened his mouth, and glanced at Fu Bo in a daze, then lowered his head and said in a low voice: "Zhou Juerong has seen Duan Steward!" I was ordered by the governor of Shandong and the governor of Shandong, Ding Junmen, to greet Gongzi and Steward Duan. ”

Yao Fan listened in the back, and said in his heart, "It turns out that Fu Bo's surname is Duan." ”

With a wave of his hand, Fauber commanded generously, "Open the way ahead, and don't make any noise when you enter the city." ”

Zhou Juerong, the general soldier of Shandong, shouted "chirp", immediately turned around and ran back on the horse, and led the way with the horse team in front of him by more than 30 meters.

Yao Fan said to Li Jing beside him: "Hey, you kid still has a good background, before he entered the city, there were officials who came to greet him?" You won't be Ding Baozhen's son, right? ”

Li Jingshu laughed and said: "Brother Yao, you look down on me too much, my father's surname is Li, how dare I change my ancestor's surname." Ding Baozhen and my father are familiar with each other, and early this morning, Fu Bo sent a subordinate to ride a horse to the city to report the news, and he naturally wanted to be reasonable on the scene. ”

Yao Fanxin said that you are a dead boy, why do you want to play sloppy with me. But he didn't ask, and pretended not to care as usual.

So Yao Fan's caravan and the Li family's caravan followed behind the horse team, and entered the Jinan City Gate in a mighty but silent manner.

A few days ago, Yao Fan and the Li family entered Zibo City, and the Li family also took out road guides and notes, and Yao Fan also had to pay taxes in addition to this. Today is good, no one came up to interrogate after crossing the city gate, and from a distance I saw that there were officers and soldiers lined up on both sides of the city gate, from the city gate to the official road outside the city, along the road on both sides, there were about 100 people, one by one wearing a hat and hat made of strips, like a wilting melon, standing solemnly on the road.

After entering Jinan City, not far from the entrance of a wide and depressed street, Yao Fan proposed to separate from the Li family.

"Brother Yao, where is your semicolon? I'll come to see you tomorrow! Li Jingshu got out of the carriage, looked up at the tall Yao Fan, and said reluctantly.

Parting is always sad, after these days of getting along, Yao Fan also has a friendship with the three members of the Li family, and he is no exception to this faint sentimentality.

He comforted Li Jingshu: "I haven't been there myself, I heard that it is in the area of Niangniang Temple, so I will take someone here to find it." ”

"Brother Yao, then if you find it, you will immediately send someone to sue me! I'm going to visit you, and our brother is going to stay here for about ten years. ”

Yao Fan nodded, smiled and said no more, and said goodbye to the third son of the Li family.

The third son of the Li family did not get into the car, and slowly left on foot with the carriage.

They were surrounded by guards, and there were cavalry in front of them slowly opening the way, full of pomp. During this period, Li Jingshu and Li Jingxuan kept turning back, and Li Jingshu arched his hand three times to Yao Fan in anticipation, waved and shook his hand twice, obviously reluctant to part. Li Jingxuan didn't say a word, but looked back repeatedly.

Yao Fan waved goodbye and watched their backs disappear into a corner in the distance. I put down my hand and felt quite emotional.

Yao Fan is not a saint, and certainly not a hypocrite, he has also wavered.

Along the way, I listened to the three members of the Li family, especially Li Jingshu, who told him about the style that a big family should have, and listened to the family rules of stretching out their hands and opening their mouths with food, with strict hierarchies and clear distinction between respect and inferiority.

Yes, as long as Yao Fan wants to, he can live such a life.

Surrounded by beautiful wives and concubines; regenerate a dozen of his little cubs; According to his grasp of history, go find a protective # umbrella and be his rich lord with peace of mind.

"Even if I succeed in rebellion, the Huaxia in my mind is not a monarchy, since I don't want to be the emperor, can Fan have to toss like this? In this horse bandit incident, if one of them misses, won't I die here? ”

Yao Fan shook his head slightly, and said to himself: "That will make me unhappy in my life......"

He Shicheng beside him interrupted Yao Fan's myth and said with emotion: "The owner, what is the origin of the Li family, what a big pomp!" ”

Zhou Si said in amazement: "It must be the son-in-law of the big official's family!" I saw this pomp just now, and I didn't dare to say a word! ”

Yao Fan said lightly: "They are a big mountain above our heads......"

He Shicheng tilted his head and muttered puzzledly: "Mountain? Head? ”、

With that, he raised his head and looked at the sky.

I saw that the sky was still blue, and it would not change in another 10,000 years.
