Back to the Red Fort

Li Fushou was in a very good mood, and walked briskly through the corridors and ponds in the courtyard, and soon came to a pavilion building.

This pavilion is called Jingsi Pavilion, it is one of the nine pavilions and eighteen floors of the Red Fort Complex, each pavilion is a unique garden, each floor is a separate house, interlocking, the pavilion hall has its own merits.

Jing Si Pavilion is an elegant place, with a small bridge and flowing water, and there is no cave, Gu Zhiwen and his entourage stayed here.

"Yuan Ding, what are you so happy about today?" Gu Zhiwen greeted him with a smile.

"Of course, it's a great event, we have developed a new product, and we can rely on it to develop a new industry in the future, and we can make a lot of money, do you say I'm happy or not." Li Fushou strode over, with a strong smell of gunsmoke.

Gu Zhiwen frowned, and immediately relaxed.

He is not interested in the so-called new products, nor is he interested in the officialdom that his father and second uncle are keen on, and he is even less interested in making money.

"Brother Yuan Ding, I think you were originally a husband with noble ambitions, why did you fall into the copper smell of baht, you are now so rich, rich and rival the country, why can't you let go of some vulgar things, invite two or three friends to sit and talk, taste tea and touch the qin, or talk about a game, talk about spring and autumn, the ancient sages are not beautiful!" Gu Zhiwen looked distressed.

Belch......

Li Fushou looked back in amazement, and suddenly laughed and said; "To Brother Wen, you sour Ding Xiucai who regards money as dung, I only ask you if you have passed the exam?"

These words were like a sharp arrow, which was fiercely inserted into Gu Zhiwen's chest, making his face darken, and he looked up to the sky and sighed; "It's not impossible, it's really luck, what?"

"To Brother Wen, don't be sour, you haven't been in the middle for ten years, you can't lift your hands, you can't bear your shoulders, fortunately, you were born in the Gu Mansion of generations of scholars, and you are a little expert in reincarnation, otherwise you will starve to death." Li Fushou gently patted Gu Zhiwen's shoulder and whispered; "You can't even support yourself, I have to feed more than a million people here, and if you don't make money to support your family, do you want them to hang their mouths like you? Xiucai talks about misleading the country! ”

Gu Zhiwen's face was red when he said this, so he almost found a hole to get into.

Li Fushou has always had a domineering personality, and he doesn't need to get used to his son-in-law's stinky problems, and what he says is really heart-wrenching.

"Master, ...... you are"

Gu Liuyan came out of the door, and saw that his cousin Gu Zhiwen's face was blue and white for a while, and his heart suddenly became clear.

So he pulled Li Fushou's arm and said; "Oh, sir, there is only one great husband like you in the world, where can ordinary ordinary people compare, cousin Zhiwen came all the way to see me, it is my mother's family, I must save some face for him."

"Hehe, sir." Li Fushou responded.

Gu Liuyan has been married to him for many years, and of course he knows that his master speaks domineeringly, and he has never considered the feelings of others.

Forget about others, this is my own family!

"Anyway, sir, you have to promise me, but you are not allowed to make any more evil words to Cousin Wen, otherwise Yan'er will not follow." Gu Liuyan threw herself into her arms, and her jade hand hugged Li Fushou's waist tightly.

"Huh...... I didn't say anything either, okay...... Good...... It's all up to you, okay? Li Fushou just denied it, Gu Liuyan's little body twisted up like a twist in his arms, and he could only raise his hand to admit defeat.

"It's pretty much the same, if the master breaks his promise, I won't follow it."

"It's all up to you, ma'am."

Gu Liuyan came out of his arms at this time, raised his small fist and slammed it twice on Li Fushou's strong chest as a warning.

Gu Zhiwen stood aside with a little embarrassment, he and Gu Liuyan have known each other since childhood, and their brothers and sisters don't need to avoid anything, but they can't hold their faces a little when they are counted down.

Come to the hall and sit down separately.

"To Brother Wen, I've traveled around the neighborhood during this time, how do you feel?" Li Fushou asked.

The new secretary Tang Shaoyi and Gu Zhiwen came in the same boat, the two talked quite similarly, this time has been Tianshan, Tang Shaoyi accompanied Gu Zhiwen to visit the surrounding cities, and even ran to the vicinity of the thylacine rock.

The battle that took place in the thylacine rock brought Luo Fushou a British noble title, and it was a key point in the quantitative change of the entire Red River Valley power from quantitative to qualitative change, and it was a glorious course that cannot be ignored.

"Brother Yuan Ding, after looking at the several towns under the command of the Red River Valley, my feelings are indescribable!"

Talking about business, Gu Zhiwen looked dignified; "This is very different from my dynasty, I never imagined that the Chinese compatriots would be able to burst out with such amazing vitality and creativity when they came to this new world.

Factories produce huge quantities of products, everyone has food and clothing, and their faces are less numb and decadent, and more vivid and vivid colors.

Can just cutting off a braid make such a drastic difference? It's incredible. ”

Li Fushou took the fragrant tea served by the maid, took a sip and said; "What was cut off was not only a braid, but also the shackles imposed on people by feudal etiquette and strict rules, restoring the spirit of the marquis of dung in the Han and Tang dynasties.

Here, as long as you are willing to work hard, you can eat and dress well, accumulate surplus, marry a wife, have children, and settle down to take root.

Here, as long as you work hard, you can change your fate, you can make money and buy property, you can join the government department, you can become a lawyer or even become a parliamentarian, as long as you work hard, you can get everything.

There are no nobles of the Eight Banners here, there is no outdated military household and artisan household system, this is a land of freedom, as long as you are willing to work hard, you can even become a nobleman, just like me......"

Speaking of which

Li Fushou glanced at the maid standing beside him with his hands down, and he couldn't say anything more about his boasting, "hehe" laughed twice and stopped talking.

Gu Zhiwen didn't notice this, and it felt very reasonable to chew Li Fushou's words carefully, which was also a proposition that the second uncle sent him to Australia to investigate the customs and customs, and he had to pay a business when he went back.

He secretly kept these words in his heart, and when the second uncle Gu Yanchuan asked, he would respond with these words.

I can't answer, but I will be severely reprimanded.

Feel free to make small talk for a moment

Li Fushou asked about the next step, and Gu Zhiwen replied;

"Brother Yuan Ding, I heard that you still have dozens of towns in the south, and I have to go through them all, and I also want to take a look at the foreigners' cities Sydney and Melbourne, and it will take at least more than two months to walk down this circle."

"Indeed, one of the characteristics of Australia is its vast territory, especially the coastal areas, which are some of the best pastures in the world." Li Fushou put down the teacup in his hand, picked up a jade and played with the plate, and said with a smile; "In that case, let Tang Shaoyi travel with you, it just so happens that he is a newcomer and also needs to be familiar with the environment of the Red River Valley. Tian Shan is the deputy director of the Secretariat, and he has many important functions, but he does not have so much time to continue to accompany you. ”

"Master, Zhiwen and Tang Shaoyi are both newcomers and are not familiar with the situation here, you see ......" Gu Liuyan said with some worry.

"It's okay, the secretariat can go to two secretaries who are familiar with the situation, just go to the cities and towns to understand the situation on the spot, and when they come back, they will write an investigation report and submit it." Li Fushou explained.

Gu Liu flue; "It's still the master who is thoughtful, so I'm relieved."

Make small talk in the hall for a while

The maid was ready for the dinner party, Li Fushou warmly greeted Gu Zhiwen and Tang Shaoyi and others to dine together, and took the lead in getting up and walking towards the restaurant.

During the banquet, Mrs. Gu Liuyan was very interested, and the family was happy together, and the atmosphere was very good, and there was constant laughter and laughter.

Wine and food, guests and hosts enjoy.

After dinner

Li Fushou walked with his wife and cousin for a while, and as usual, he had to work for a while before going to bed.

Inside the large study

Pang Xuehai, the director of security in the Red River Valley, came alone, and tonight was specially summoned by the earl, and he had important work to explain.

In the study with teak floors, along the walls is a row of tall rosewood bookcases, exuding a characteristic sandalwood scent that lingers faintly on the tip of the nose.

Looking at the familiar furnishings in front of him, Pang Xuehai's face was grim, and he felt a lot of pressure in his heart.

There is nothing remarkable about the work of the security department recently, and he is faintly pressed by the black-clothed guards.

Especially in the matter of clearing Governor Frank's right-hand man, the black-clothed guard showed precise and ruthless means, and Governor Frank, who was directly pressed, completely lost his voice and obediently continued to be his own traction puppeteer.

In particular, the ruthless move of arresting Aaron Johnson, deputy director of Queensland Immigration, and preparing to transfer him to the state independent prosecutor for prosecution, directly scared Governor Frank to his knees.

In order to save his sweetheart, Pang Xuehai doesn't know what price Frank's idiot has secretly paid, but it is obvious that Aaron Johnson was released due to lack of evidence and will soon go to Europe.

After this incident

Aaron Johnson completely cut off the opportunity to develop in his career, and he could go to Europe with a lot of wealth to live the life he wanted, which was almost a dream ending.

In the oily places of the immigration department, even touching your hands is enough to go to the gallows 100 times, and the meaning of this is worth mentioning.

It may be difficult for outsiders to know, but Pang Xuehai knows that the mysterious department of the black-clothed guard is in the limelight, and it has overwhelmed the security department.

The two departments of the Security Department and the Black Guards have both competition and cooperation, the Security Department is in charge and the Black Guards are outside, but there are overlaps between the two, and the boundaries are not very clear.

Pang Xuehai clearly knows that his future and the internal security investigation department under his command can have much room for development in the future, the key is whether the ability shown can satisfy the earl?

One thought of life, one thought of death.

Pang Xuehai was weighing the gains and losses in his heart, and when he heard the usual footsteps of the earl, he immediately straightened his waist and stood respectfully by his side.

"Oh, Xuehai is already here, there is no need to be restrained here, relax, I just came to you to talk about some things." Li Fushou strode in, came to the sofa area on the side of the study and sat down, beckoned; "Come and sit, would you like something to drink?"

"No need, sir." Pang Xuehai walked over and sat down, only letting half of his butt sit on the sofa, his body straight to the earl, ready to answer questions at any time.

"Xuehai, you ......" Li Fushou comfortably cocked Erlang's legs, looked at Pang Xuehai, who was still restrained, smiled bitterly and shook his head, gave up the idea of chatting for a while, and then asked with a straight face; Xuehai, do you know about the new artillery project developed by the German expert R&D team? ”

"I understand that the security work of this project has always been done by us, and it belongs to the highest level of confidentiality."

"Hmm......" Li Fushou replied lightly, thought about it and said; The new artillery has been successfully developed, nicknamed "Miss Australia", which is a major scientific and technological innovation project of epoch-making significance, which will have a profound impact on the development of military technology of the world's armies, and is of great significance and is our killer project. ”

Speaking of which

Li Fushou glanced at Pang Xuehai, who was listening quietly, and said in an accentuated tone; "Today's artillery demonstration project has been a complete success, and several military leaders have participated in it, further expanding the scope and difficulty of secrecy, which has put forward higher requirements for your security department, and now I order ......"

Hearing this, Pang Xuehai immediately stood up and replied with a straight waist; "Please show me."

Li Fushou immediately stood up and said word by word; "The Deep Blue Alchemy Workshop will further strengthen confidentiality measures, and all technicians and workers involved in the project will be physically isolated, so they will move to a separate town to live and be completely isolated from the outside world, and the specific confidentiality measures will be implemented by the Security Department."

"Obey orders and ensure the completion of the task." Pang Xuehai replied with a serious expression.

"On the new artillery project, the security department will cooperate with the black guards, and I hope that you will unite sincerely to prevent the leakage of technical details, focus on monitoring the military to be able to contact the person in charge of the artillery project, plug all loopholes that may leak secrets, and severely punish violators." Li Fushou ordered sternly.

Pang Xuehai felt the pressure of the mountain, and he stood up and saluted with a resolute expression; "Obey the order, the security department and the black guards sincerely cooperate to plug all loopholes that may leak secrets, and violators will be severely punished."

"Hmm." Li Fushou nodded, and said with a long sigh; "I hope they don't let me down."

Pang Xuehai understands who the Earl is talking about?

In the military system of the Red River Valley, German soldiers occupy an important position, and cavalry and militia training are copied from German-style military subjects, which are known for rigor and efficiency.

The Earl gave great trust and support to the German soldiers, placing them in important positions and treating them as right-hand men.

The significance of the new type of artillery is extraordinary, and it affects not only the course of the army's war, but even a country's strategic intentions and national fortunes.

In this case

Will the German-American military stand up to the test? It's a big question mark.

It is impossible for the Red River Valley to pin all its hopes on the loyalty of the German soldiers, such an illusory thing is the most unreliable, and it must be guarded against it.

Compared with the newly rising Red River Valley, German soldiers are more inclined to the blood-related German Empire, which was born and raised in Sri Lanka.

From language, culture, traditions to food, from relatives to hometown, there are too many constant entanglements.

The days passed without panic, and half a month later......
