Chapter 284: When the Carriage is in Progress
"Humble words, I have prepared you with some soothing prescriptions, you better take it on time every day." Zhou Xinyao held a bowl of decoction and put it in front of Zhang Tinglan.
As soon as he saw this black thing, Zhang Tinglan suddenly gushed out a bitter water from the bottom of his heart, and hurriedly said: "I am in good health, I can eat and sleep well, where can I use the medicine to calm my nerves!" ”
"Don't you say no, yesterday you said in your dreams in the middle of the night, crying and laughing, and always saying something that doesn't look for the edge, shouldn't you be cured?"
"Xin Yao, how do you know when I say that I am in a dream, did you run to my room?" Zhang Tinglan tried hard to use his brain, but he couldn't think of anything, it didn't seem to be such a good thing!
"Your guard informed me, he said that you suddenly said loudly in your sleep, worried about your health, let me come over and check it, and sat until about midnight, and you were completely quiet."
While Zhou Xinyao was talking, she sat opposite Zhang Tinglan and said softly: "Humble words, I checked your pulse, there is no serious problem, it is just that the mind is depleted, which means that the mind is usually too heavy, but in the long run, it is not good for your body!" ”
Zhang Tinglan also knew that Zhou Xinyao was not lying, but she couldn't think of anything, but one thing Zhou Xinyao said was right, that is, her heart was too heavy, and in a year and a half, there were too many things to deal with, from domestic to international, from economic to military, she had to mix up, and she couldn't let go of anything.
Before the crossing, he was just an ordinary student, and this sudden change in identity and sudden increase in workload was not because the experience and insight of the crossing could help him, but it required a lot of mental thoughts. After solving it little by little, Zhang Tinglan did feel a little physically and mentally exhausted.
"Xin Yao, what did I say yesterday?"
"It's nothing, it's just some messy things, what 918, what Red Russia, what changes history......"
When Zhang Tinglan heard this, she almost squirted a mouthful of old blood, she has always been the most strict, why did she still show her feet. He thought about it. In fact, I also understood, just yesterday he asked the Governor of the Far East, Felix, and Felix also agreed to this proposal, and promised to go to Fuyuan to meet Zhang Tinglan.
After getting this news, Zhang Tinglan knew that the Russians were ready to succumb. As long as the Russians relented, an obstacle to the evacuation of Jihuazuihou in the Far East was removed. The direction of Fengjun's development has finally seen the light of day. Open a gap from Russia, obtain the coveted industrial equipment, and control of North Manchuria, and then compete with the Japanese for South Manchuria, and the two big iron doors restricting the development of the Feng army were successfully pried open by themselves.
With such results, Zhang Tinglan was satisfied. After more than a year of hard thinking, it is inevitable that I will relax my spirit, and it is not surprising that I will say some dream words.
"Xin Yao. Even if this matter is a secret between the two of us, no one is allowed to tell it! ”
"You're calling a doctor a doctor!" Zhou Xinyao didn't really care what Zhang Tinglan said, she was more concerned about Zhang Tinglan's health, so she unceremoniously put the medicine bowl in front of him: "Drink it while it's hot, I also added some honey, it's not bitter at all!" ”
At this point, Zhang Tinglan had no choice but to pick up the medicine bowl, open her mouth, and pour it all down, sure enough, the medicine was not so bitter, and there was a trace of fragrance.
Zhou Xinyao saw that Zhang Tinglan had finished drinking the medicine, and reached out to receive the medicine bowl, Zhang Tinglan only saw a pair of small and delicate jade hands stretched out in front of her, white and tender like a baby, slender fingertips, neatly trimmed fingertips, full of wisdom. Zhang Tinglan's heart was agitated when she saw it, and she grabbed Zhou Xinyao's hand with a handful.
Zhou Xinyao was still a little struggling, but Zhang Tinglan had a lot of strength, and she couldn't break free, so she could only lower her head.
"Xin Yao, after knowing each other for so long, do you think I'm quite boring?"
"Well, it's a bit like rotten wood, and it doesn't have much merit except for being calculating!"
"Then do you know how much pressure I have, I'm really worried, God has only given me more than two years, if I can't break the deadlock in these two years, everything will be over!"
Zhang Tinglan said all the words in his heart, don't look at the 918 incident There are still more than ten years to go, but as the so-called opportunity must not be lost and never come again, World War I is a critical period for the rise of Japan, if after World War I, the general trend of Japan has been completely formed, and it is really too difficult to do anything in the three eastern provinces, which is also Zhang Tinglan's biggest pressure.
"Xin Yao, there are some things you may not understand, just treat me as if I am still talking nonsense!"
Zhou Xinyao shook her head suddenly: "I believe you are telling the truth, and I also know that you are planning for this country, I may not be able to help you anything, as long as I can accompany you silently, I will be very satisfied!" ”
Zhang Tinglan hugged Zhou Xinyao into her arms, and sat on her thighs with elastic buttocks, Zhang Tinglan looked at her beautiful face obsessively, and said with a smile: "Xinyao, I have successfully taken the first step, and I will have a certain amount of capital in my hand immediately. ”
Seeing Zhang Tinglan's relaxed look, Zhou Xinyao also felt sincerely relieved, in the past, he felt that Zhang Tinglan's heart was too heavy, so that the whole person was like a little old man, and now seeing his rare relief, Zhou Xinyao couldn't help but be very happy.
"Xin Yao, I want to meet Felix in the evening, the nephew of the Tsar, the governor of the Far East, according to the etiquette of foreigners, Madame will accompany you!"
Zhou Xinyao's face was slightly red, and she nodded slowly, which was considered to be accepted and accepted this identity.
In the blink of an eye, in the evening, according to the agreement between the two parties, Zhang Tinglan arranged a small drinking party, all the decorations were Western-style, and at half past eight in the evening, the governor of the Far East, Felix, arrived as promised.
The Normanov family has genetic diseases, Felix is pale, but the aristocratic atmosphere is still very strong, a bit like the legendary vampire, elegant and gloomy, there is a Russian beauty with heavy makeup next to her, tall and tall, although she is wearing a precious leather coat, but she can still feel the angry figure.
Zhang Tinglan looked at the sour in his heart, Felix, a tuberculosis ghost, was not afraid of dying on the goblin, Zhang Tinglan was looking at Felix, Felix was also observing Zhang Tinglan, he didn't expect Zhang Tinglan to be younger than himself, and what made him even more jealous was that Zhang Tinglan's female companion was more attractive.
Different from the thick ink and color around him, the other party's Qingshui face is dignified and beautiful, there is no trace of frivolity in his expression, and the whole person feels as if he has come out of an oriental ink painting, full of elegance and nobility, even more outstanding than those princes and nobles in Moscow.
These two are women who look at a mountain and pay attention to others, but they don't know that they are also envied by each other.
"Mr. Zhang, are we friends or enemies?" Felix was the first to speak, and the translator told Zhang Tinglan what he meant.
Zhang Tinglan also smiled: "Neither friends nor enemies, but collaborators who use each other, we now cooperate for two benefits, and fighting is two harms!" ”
Felix also thought about this carefully, nodded his head, and the two of them walked to the reception one after the other, the representative of the Chinese side helped to receive the Russians, and Felix went directly to the secret conference room with Zhang Tinglan.
The two sat opposite each other, Zhang Tinglan glanced at Felix, and then said: "Mr. Duke, I want to inform you of the news, General Korizin is finished, and he and his troops are all dead!" ”
Felix didn't have any expression on his face, just smiled and said: "Isn't Mr. Zhang afraid, so many Russians have died on your territory, Russia can completely accuse you of massacring the expatriates, and then the Russian army will cross the Amur River and sweep the entire northeast!" ”
"What should really be feared is you, if the opposition inside Russia knows about this, they will definitely think that the Russian army is nothing more than that, and they will not be vulnerable at all, and then they will rise up together to overthrow the rule of Tsar Bixia."
As soon as Zhang Tinglan said this, Felix's face became more and more pale, and he unconsciously clenched his fists.
"How do you know what's going on in Russia?"
"It's no secret, in the history of China, this kind of dynastic alternation has been carried out countless times, and there are few dynasties that can exceed three hundred years since ancient times, you will be surprised, in the end, your country has experienced too few things!"
Zhang Tinglan is so sure that Felix took the initiative to come to the negotiation table, in fact, he has a strong grasp, mainly because he is too familiar with the situation in Russia, and there have been many situations during this time, and there is already a powerful Liliang brewing to overthrow the Tsar, and the whole Russia is also in the rumor.
At this juncture of internal and external troubles, any sane person should think of a way out for himself, and Fengjun also proved his strength by completely annihilating Koryzin and obtained the capital to cooperate with Felix. Being able to bring in a strong foreign aid when troubled times are approaching is probably a good thing that cannot be sought.
"Mr. Duke, I think what you need most is to stabilize the whole Far East, and to stabilize these places, you need nothing more than two things, bread and work, and I can help you with both."
"Mr. Zhang, tell me about your cooperation proposal, I will seriously consider it!"
"Actually, it's very simple, we have institutionalized and expanded the smuggling trade, I don't know if it is in Fuyuan, but also to Suifenhe, as long as you can properly raise your hand along the entire border, I am willing to provide you with a large amount of grain at a low price, and you can also purchase special products such as timber from the Far East, so that the Far East will settle down."
"But you're also like a mouse, moving everything you want."
"Look at this thing, do you have any other options?" Zhang Tinglan pushed a document in front of Felix.
Felix glanced at it hastily, and suddenly felt a whirlwind of the world, a flush appeared on his face, he closed his eyes in pain, nodded slowly for a while, and the dignified tsar's nephew had to bow his head! (To be continued......)
