"Qianqiu Miao left me alone, and I will study again when I return from a hundred battles." Zhao Xiaowan couldn't help but read aloud. Everyone else also understood Huang Ke's intentions.

Huang Ke asked Huang Zheng: "Have you read the "Zeng Wen Text Collection" that you read before?" ”

"......" Huang Zhengyi was a little stunned when he heard this, because he mainly studied military affairs in the Soviet Union. He witnessed the development and growth of the Soviet mechanized troops, and also participated in the task of clearing some remnants of white bandits.

Huang Ke looked at Huang Zheng with a solemn expression, his eyes were a little complicated, both angry that the child was ignorant, and a kind of relief that the child had grown up. Yes, this guy grew up so fast, he was only more than 1.7 meters when he left, and now he has eaten milk bread in the USSR for two years and has grown even taller than himself.

Looking at him now, Huang Ke has to look at him levelly. I'm afraid he won't be able to look down on this kid like he used to be.

"It doesn't matter if you don't read it, it's normal for you to not be able to read these boring books at your age. Come here, and I'll tell you what that means. Huang Ke was not angry, which made Huang Zheng quite surprised.

Huang Zheng stood up, feeling a little apprehensive, and naturally there was shame and guilt in it.

"Your mother also read this sentence just now, this is the sentence. The literal meaning is not difficult to understand, but everyone has their own opinion on this sentence. I'll tell you about the background of this, and it's up to you to understand the profound meaning of it. ”

Everyone turned their eyes to Huang Ke, and Huang Ke said lightly: "This sentence was written by Zeng Guofan to his brother Zeng Guoquan, Zeng Guoquan at that time had no ambition, and Rong Ma was cut by the imperial court for half his life, and his provincial relatives were ordered to go home. At the time of parting, his brother Zeng Guofan did not give him any bold words, nor did he give him any promises, he just gave him these two sentences, Zeng Guoquan later understood. ”

Huang Zheng nodded, he seemed to understand something of his father's meaning.

Huang Ke continued: "Chinese has had a tradition of reading since ancient times, which is almost unique to the Chinese nation in the world. In ancient times, although the common people could not afford to read, they still respected the readers. You don't like to read, I can understand it, but I don't agree with it. No matter what time or position you are in, you must continue to study. ”

Huang Zheng nodded, Huang Ke's face returned to its former majesty, and he said undoubtedly: "You go out first, as for which unit to go to, I have already arranged it, let's go!" ”

Huang Zheng was accustomed to Huang Ke's order-like tone, scolded him, and walked out after saluting.

Looking at the back of Huang Zheng going out, Zhao Tinghui, who was standing on the side, nodded in approval again and again. Huang Ke returned to his desk and asked idly, "Why do you have time to come over today?" Also wearing a national uniform? ”

Zhao Tinghui looked at the lapel national uniform on his body, and said with a slightly embarrassed smile: "That's the case, a few days ago, there was a military supply that arrived in Kunming, I'll go over and take a look." When I went, I was infected by government officials, so I bought such a national uniform. ”

Huang Ke heard him speak and hurriedly stopped and said, "What is the matter with Nanjing?" ”

"It's nothing, it's just that when I recently bought something, I asked people to bring back some foreign wine, cigars, stockings and other things from abroad, and I sent them by the way." Zhao Tinghui laughed and laughed, he naturally couldn't tell Huang Ke about Huang Zheng's return to China in advance, he knew that Huang Ke was very sensitive to these things.

Huang Ke nodded and said, "For the rest, you ask Xiaowan, the cigar is no longer needed, I have recently quit smoking." ”

"Quit smoking?" Zhao Tinghui asked in some surprise.

"yes, I just made up my mind to quit smoking the day before yesterday. Xinghua said that the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression was difficult, and it was necessary to advocate the 'New Life Movement' in the whole army, and public servants should not smoke or drink, and strictly economize. We can only use plain water to entertain people in our house. Zhao Xiaowan walked in and continued.

Zhao Tinghui nodded and smiled after hearing this: "That's good, but it's a loss for those who do the tea business!" ”

Saying that, he told Zhao Xiaowan about bringing stockings and other things, Zhao Xiaowan was very happy to get those exquisite glass stockings, she smiled and said: "Great, brother, you don't know, I have been fancy these stockings for a long time, but they are out of stock on the market, and now a pair of glass stockings has almost fried to dozens of yuan a piece." I wanted to buy it at first, but then I still thought it was a bit expensive. Yesterday, I also told the manager of Dasheng that if there is a product, you must notify me first. ”

Everyone laughed, and Huang Ke frowned and asked, "Dozens of dollars a glass stocking?" Are prices rising so badly now? ”

Zhao Xiaowan smiled and said: "Grain and oil are relatively stable, but the price of some items imported from abroad has risen a lot." ”

"Oh!" Huang Ke nodded understandingly, he ordered his grandmother to add a few more dishes for lunch, leaving Zhao Tinghui for lunch, Zhao Tinghui did not refuse, and stayed.

Because of the guests, the meal was a little more than usual, but not too much. Recently, as he gets older, Huang Ke has become more and more concerned about health, and his food is mainly based on various grains and vegetables, not that he deliberately puts on a show, but he really doesn't like big fish and meat.

The family sat around and began to eat, Huang Ke opened a bottle of Huadiao wine, Zhao Tinghui drank some, and soon after a bottle of wine bottomed out, and both of them were red.

After eating, Sun Ma and the others began to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, Huang Ke picked up a glass of boiled water and took a few sips, Zhao Tinghui sat on the side, and also "tasted" the boiled water.

"Xiaowan, go and see how Huang Zheng's cleaning is going?" Huang Ke said to Zhao Xiaowan.

Zhao Xiaowan nodded and went out, leaving only Huang Ke and Zhao Tinghui in the living room. Huang Ke turned his head to Zhao Tinghui and asked, "How is the business lately?" At the end, he said, "If you are not used to drinking boiled water, let Xiaowan make some tea, there is no need to stick to the form at home." ”

"It's nothing, I'm still used to drinking plain water!" Zhao Tinghui picked up the boiled water in his hand and said with a smile: "If you want to talk about business, it must have been affected recently. After all, we do a lot of import and export, and the Japanese have blocked the ports, and now it is as difficult to export as it is to engage in smuggling. However, the domestic economy has been formed, the domestic demand market is good, and many of our manufacturing industries can supply goods, which is still stable. ”

Huang Ke nodded: "In the navy, our skills are not as good as others, so we can only sigh with admiration." However, it is rare to be able to fully support the transportation of the Yunnan-Burma Highway under such a difficult situation! The patriotism of the industrialists is admirable. ”

After hearing this, Zhao Tinghui smiled slightly: "All the people are soldiers and work together to resist Japan!" Naturally, we can't lag behind as a business, and we can make a little effort. ”

"It's good to work together, but our enemies on this battlefield are the Japanese, not your usual business. This point still needs to be distinguished. Huang Ke cocked his legs, leaned towards Zhao Tinghui, and said with a smile.

"That's nature." Zhao Tinghui nodded and said lightly, but when he said these words, he was furious in his heart.

Some time ago, in order to prevent the Yangzi company from taking goods from Myanmar, he moved a little careful thinking, and the people who bought the Ministry of Defense seized some of the private goods carried by the Yangzi company, which later had a very bad impact, and many people in the Yangzi company were arrested, and almost lost the opportunity to transport the Yunnan-Burma highway. The other party lost a lot, this time Zhao Tinghui won a big victory, he basically monopolized the transportation market, but it also made him offend the people of Yangzi Company.

There are many people who know about this matter, and Huang Ke will naturally hear some of it, but Huang Ke is not just referring to this one thing.

Huang Ke continued: "In fact, before Yangzi Company was investigated and punished for carrying private goods, I also heard about these things about him, but I didn't expect them to go so far. After the incident, Kong Xiangxi sent someone to find me and asked me if I could open the net? I turned him down. The Kong family is a group of people who will repay them, and they will definitely not give up on this matter. Needless to say, the relationship between you and me is needless to say, and if you abide by the law and someone wants to frame you, I will definitely not sit idly by. ”

Zhao Tinghui crossed his legs after hearing this, he understood what Huang Ke meant, Huang Ke was telling him about the prosperous relationship between the two, which naturally he wanted to see.

However, Huang Ke's next words extinguished his desire. Huang Ke then said lightly: "But if you have violated the law, I will definitely enforce the law impartially." ”

"That's nature, that's nature......" Zhao Tinghui said with a smile after hearing this.

"There is no best." Huang Ke got up from his chair and said, "I have already told the people below that anyone who violates the law and discipline during the war does not need to report it to his superiors, and can be arrested directly." ”

He picked up the military hat on the table and said, "I have something to go to the Ministry of Defense in the afternoon, so you can sit at home more." ”

"Okay, you go yours." Zhao Tinghui stood up, Huang Ke put on his military hat and walked straight out, and the fourteen boys who were standing on the side followed closely.

The two got into the car at the door, and Yang Yibing was already inside the car. After Huang Ke sat in, Fourteen Tsai closed the door, Huang Ke waved his hand, and the driver immediately started to drive forward.

"Comrade Xinghua, it has been clarified, here is the list of goods carried by Limin Company in recent years." Yang Yibing handed Huang Ke a document printed with the word confidential, and he continued: "Since the opening of the Yunnan-Burma Highway, they have carried all kinds of civilian commodities more than 30 times, and the one responsible for transporting them is Zhou Shenglin, the colonel of the transportation regiment, and the one who sells the goods is Liu Guangkun, who sells the goods. ”

Yang Yibing handed over the heavy evidence to Huang Ke, and Huang Ke did not speak for a long time.

"Comrade Xinghua......" Yang Yibing tried to ask.

"Don't move yet!" Huang Ke threw the information to Yang Yibingdao.
