To be honest, Julie is resentful.

Because she felt that as a Dutch descent, she was very suitable to participate in the novel and elegant outdoor stage play rehearsed by Mr. Huang He.

At the church's girls' school, Julie was the best singer in the choir and a constant focus in the students' stage plays.

She thinks she has excellent acting skills and can play important roles.

However, Zhu Fugui rejected her.

Just kidding, I didn't shoot "Pirates of the Caribbean", where did such beautiful female foreign bandits come from Taiwan in the 17th century?

Could it be that Zheng Chenggong is going to subdue Taiwan in order to grab the little Yanmar and add a bloody love scene?

Isn't this nonsense?

Therefore, Zhu Fugui found the Dutch colonists to play crooked melons and cracked dates carefully selected from Gaishi Town.

is the kind of foreigner who makes the audience want to stuff his big nose back into his head when he sees it, and then picks out his eyeballs as marbles, and has an abominable face.

Specifically, it's kind of like Peng Bajie's kind of guy, but not so fat.

Anyway, the people of the Ming Dynasty should not be able to see the difference between the British, the French, the Irish, and the Dutch.

At least Zhu Fugui can't distinguish at all except for relying on unreliable hair color.

But in any case, more than two months of snubbing made Julie very angry and resentful.

She bit Zhu Fugui's shoulder hard, leaving two rows of clear traces of teeth.

In fact, Zhu Fugui is not a lucky person, which can be seen in his love for the old people around him.

Well, except for a senior sea lion sushi tasting expert in Aleutian Island, a little potato grower.

Anyway, Zhu Fugui proposed a long time ago to let Julie come to Fengdu to live, or even live in the Fugui Palace.

Zhu Fugui believes that with the magnanimity of his virtuous wife Yin Susu, he will definitely be able to achieve the world's ......

Probably......

Anyway, as long as she doesn't let Messi go, everything is negotiable.

Zhu Fugui had the intention to end such an ambiguous relationship, but the eldest lady of Vanderbilt unexpectedly rejected him.

She said that she was a devout Christian and would never live together before marriage.

This made Zhu Fugui very speechless.

You know, when Julie said this, she was wearing the special costume of the little elk that Zhu Fugui bought from the kind of model demonstration on Taobao in later generations, and pouted her ass on top of the Bible!

There is no doubt that this chick is not a devout Christian at all.

But one of her words is true, Julie hopes to become Zhu Fugui's wife, and be recognized by the family and even the world in such an identity.

"My crush is a hero of the world, and one day he will step on the seven-colored auspicious clouds to marry me......"

Julie jumped to her feet, lifted her slender bare feet, and kicked the Bible into the fireplace.

She gently held Zhu Fugui with her white arms, and blew in his ear: "Mr. Huang He, your career is very great, and I am willing to help you with all I have...... At least commercially......"

"I believe that one day I will be your bride, and at my wedding, even the girls of the Dutch and British royal families will cast envious glances at me...... Hopefully that day...... Not too long......"

As she spoke, Julie bit Zhu Fugui's ear and fell into his arms.

What else is there to say about this?

Zhu Fugui must use his performance to redouble his efforts tonight to "deeply" apologize......

Apologize once,

Apologize twice,

Apologize three times......

·

Of course, Zhu Fugui hurried to the Johor Bahru Customs Railway Corporation, not simply to apologize to Julie.

It is because the long-awaited Fengdu-Omaha Railway has finally been opened to traffic.

The breakthrough of this 2,500-kilometer-long artery not only means that Zhu Fugui has regained the ability to continue supplying supplies to his old friend Robert Lee;

It also means that Daming can eat 170,000 road construction laborers at once, making the total population of Daming reach 820,000.

Last month, the sixth transport fleet of the Ming Dynasty was also launched, and the number of Chinese workers that can be transported every month is more than 120,000.

170,000 people, which is equivalent to an extra month of population growth out of thin air.

At this moment, the officials of the Ministry of Household and the Ministry of Industry and the Shipbuilding Bureau breathed a long sigh of relief.

Because at the beginning of the year, Long Live Lord set a requirement to increase the population of Daming to 980,000 by August.

But by the end of June, the population of Daming was only 650,000, and there was still a gap of 330,000 people from the goal.

If you want to get 330,000 people in two months, it's not that it can't be done, but it's still quite difficult.

After all, the transport ship of the Ming Dynasty cannot be like a piglet ship, regardless of the life and death of Chinese workers, blindly expanding its capacity.

The two major shipyards of the Ministry of Industry are now working overtime in three shifts to produce ocean-going carriers, and all orders for inland and offshore merchant ships have been handed over to private shipyards.

This has led to a rapid increase in the number of people transported by the Ming Dynasty every month.

also made Li Hongzhang earn a lot of money, and by the way, even Zuo Zongtang and Peng Yulin drank soup.

Li Hongzhang, who controls the port of Shanghai, has a clear advantage in this competition to eat big Ming poop.

He alone has to take away 60,000 places every month, and the other Zuo Zongtang and Peng Yulin can only share the remaining 60,000 places.

The reason why these soups flowed out of Li Hongzhang's fingers was entirely because the Huai Army was still weak and had to form gangs to make a big move.

Zuo Zongtang's Chu army must be a staunch ally, but there is no need for Lao Li to worry about it.

Peng Yulin, as Zeng Guofan's confidant who stayed in Nanjing, was the troublesome figure.

Li Hongzhang thought that once he made an incident, the Hunan army in Nanjing would at least have to help each other.

For this reason, Lao Li was very willing to give up the capital, and he shared half of the profit at once.

Jiangsu Province loses 60,000 people a month, which is a lot, but in fact, it is just a drizzle for Li Hongzhang.

Suzhou Prefecture alone had a population of more than 7 million before the trouble.

And now there are only more than 2 million people registered in Suzhou, and it is obviously impossible to say that those 4.5 million people have been slaughtered by Changmao.

Li Hongzhang himself did not slaughter, he used the method of deception to surrender, and the soldiers took Suzhou Mansion without blood, and for this reason, he also fell out with the foreign gun team.

In other words, at least two or three million, or even 4 million, people in Suzhou alone have been displaced or gone into hiding because of the war.

This kind of exile is everywhere in all provinces of Jiangsu.

And compared with Anhui, Shandong and other provinces that are still making trouble, Jiangsu can be described as a rich treasure in ancient times, and now it is relatively stable, and Changmao basically does not make trouble.

What's more, Jiangsu has food!

Daming shipwat Khrushchev happy stick shipped to the sea!

In troubled times, food is equal to population.

In the name of providing relief to the victims and assisting Zeng Dashuai in suppressing the twist, Li Hongzhang opened porridge factories in Huai'an, Suqian, Yangzhou and other places.

Of course, the cornmeal porridge in these porridge factories is not full at all.

But it was enough to make the hungry people smell the news.

Just like in the cat and mouse, Tom uses breadcrumbs all the way to lure Jerry into the trap, and Li Hongzhang's porridge factory goes all the way from north to south, seducing the victims south.

Then they were sold for five times as much grain.

Cixi and others still don't know why, and they still think that Li Hongzhang has a heart for the society, and he is a loyal minister who destroys his family and saves the country in the Qing Dynasty.

After all, since ancient times, if you want to quell the chaos, you must provide disaster relief.

Only by digesting and decomposing the victims will the peasant army lose the soil for survival and growth.

Otherwise, this chaotic people will not be killed.

So Jiangsu is going to drain the last drop of blood for the sake of the Qing Dynasty!

As for whether Li Hongzhang is secretly accumulating fame in order to make a big deal, it is impossible.

Because after the Changmao Rebellion, Jiangsu itself is a lot of displaced people, and he Li Hongzhang really wants to buy the hearts of the people, so he has to help his own people first, how can there be a reason for cross-provincial disaster relief?

Thinking that because Li Hongzhang refused to go north to be the governor of the Twist, the imperial court was suspicious of him, and even Cixi felt a little guilty.

As a result, Lao Li, the first-class earl who originally belonged to him in history, but had not been able to get his hands on it for a long time, was actually approved because of this matter!

"Since ancient times, the local rulers have beggar-thy-neighbor and regarded the displaced people as the beasts of the flood, lest they avoid it, but only Count Li is loyal, destroys his family to save the country, and feeds the people with himself, which is really a model for all generations!

If Zhu Ming has Li Hongzhang, how can Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong come from!

This is the blessing of the Qing Dynasty, the blessing of the emperor, and the blessing of all the people! ”

Suddenly, the court's praise for Lao Li reached a new height.

Only Zeng Guofan, who supervised Henan, faintly felt a little uneasy.

But when I wrote to Peng Yulin and Zeng Guoquan several times, the other party was also vague and didn't know why.
