After listening to it on a summer night, a warm current surged in my heart.

He knew that Zhang Songwen's words were not false flattery, but a true evaluation and expectation of himself.

He took a deep breath and took the encouragement and trust to heart.

At the dinner table, the upbringing of the Zhang family was unmistakable, and no one spoke during the meal, only the slight collision of chopsticks and dishes echoed in the air.

Summer Night knew that this was a sign of respect and etiquette, so she tacitly cooperated, savoring every bite of food.

Although this dinner is not gorgeous, it exudes homely warmth and harmony.

After the meal, the woman served fragrant tea, and the fragrance of tea spread in the living room.

Take a sip on a summer night, only to feel that the tea is fragrant and refreshing.

He put down his teacup and looked at Zhang Songwen, deciding to break the temporary silence.

"Secretary Zhang, I haven't heard you mention your family before, I don't know who else is in your family?" Summer Night asked softly, with a bit of respect and curiosity in her tone.

When Zhang Songwen heard this, a trace of complicated emotions flashed in his eyes.

He sighed and said slowly, "I have a son, but he died very young. His voice was a little low, full of endless sorrow and regret.

Xia Ye was shocked in her heart, and hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, Secretary Zhang, I mentioned your sadness." His tone was full of apology and concern.

However, Zhang Songwen waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's okay, he died defending the frontier, and I am proud of him for sacrificing his life for the country." ”

Speaking of this, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes, which was the persistence and persistence of his family and country.

Summer Night nodded, with a solemn expression.

For the first time, he learned about Zhang Songwen's family situation, and he couldn't help but have a little more respect and admiration for this old man.

He understood that the pain of losing a loved one and the pride were intertwined and could not be fully expressed in words.

When the woman on the side heard this, she slowly lowered her head and said nothing.

She got up and smiled reluctantly, and said softly, "You guys talk, I'll go back to my room and rest." There was a little choked and helpless in her voice, and then she turned and left the living room.

Zhang Songwen glanced at her and explained to Xia Ye: "She has always been difficult to let go, after all, she is a mother, and losing her child is a heavy blow to her." His tone was full of understanding and love for his wife.

Xia Ye nodded again in understanding, and asked about Zhang Songwen's son.

Zhang Songwen took a deep breath and slowly said the past: "He was killed by several foreigners on the border, of course, the murderer has been arrested and punished according to the crime." ”

His voice trembled a little as he said this, but he still maintained that firmness and calmness.

Summer Night's heart shook.

He couldn't imagine how the pain and anger of losing his loved ones, as well as the glory and pride of dying for the country, were intertwined in Zhang Songwen's heart.

He was silent for a moment, and then said solemnly: "Secretary Zhang, please mourn and change, your son is a hero, he has given his precious life for the country, and this glory will always be remembered in people's hearts." ”

Zhang Songwen said with a smile: "It's all in the past, people can't be resurrected after death, but the living have to move on." ”

His words are full of open-mindedness and tenacity, and people can't help but be in awe.

Then, he turned to the question of Xia Ye's background and the development plan of Xingchen Securities in the imperial capital.

"Regarding your background, the National Court will not help, but Xingchen Securities, as the first private securities institution in the empire, has symbolic significance, and the cabinet will assist you in setting up relevant institutions, offices, hospitality offices, and so on in the imperial capital."

Zhang Songwen's words are full of support and encouragement for Xia Ye, and also reveal the importance and expectation of Xingchen Securities.

When I heard the words on a summer night, my heart warmed.

He knew that this was Zhang Songwen's trust and help to him, and it was also an important opportunity for him to gain a foothold in the imperial capital.

He took a deep breath and said solemnly: "Thank you Secretary Zhang for your support and trust, I will definitely live up to your expectations, develop Xingchen Securities into a financial giant of the empire, and contribute to the economic development of the country." ”

Zhang Songwen waved his hand and said with a straight face: "If you say it on the table, don't say it in my house, you behave well, if Xingchen Securities becomes bigger, the cabinet may need your help, this tool is a good weapon for us to deal with foreign forces." His tone was full of anticipation and trust for the summer night.

Summer Night nodded, a determined glint in her eyes.

He is well aware of the potential and value of Xingchen Securities, and also understands Zhang Songwen's value and support for him.

Previously, the contest between Xingchen Securities and the Flower of Darkness has explained everything, and they have merit.

Zhang Songwen also mentioned this point, and there are remarks in the cabinet that will not be forgotten.

"And your nightfall capital." Zhang Songwen's words changed, and his tone became serious, "I have mentioned it many times, be careful not to violate the rules of the empire, monopoly is not good, you are expanding too fast." His words reveal a reminder and warning of a summer night.

Xia Ye nodded again, and said with a serious face: "This point, I also understand, since Secretary Zhang mentioned it, I won't hide it from you, this time I came to the imperial capital, I still have a preparation, is to set up an arms company, we have a group in Burma, and we are building a private armed organization belonging to the Chinese in our empire, I hope to meet Minister Qiu of the Imperial Defense Department." His tone was full of determination and confidence.

Zhang Songwen was stunned, obviously he didn't expect Xia Ye to have such an idea.

He frowned and looked at Xia Ye, and asked in a deep voice, "Arms business?" Have you thought about it? This is not something that ordinary people can touch, and besides, if you want to work in the imperial capital, it is even more difficult. His tone was full of worries and reminders of the summer night.

When the summer night heard this, she was surprised.

He didn't expect Zhang Songwen to react so much to his idea.

But he did not flinch, but looked at Zhang Songwen firmly and explained: "Secretary Zhang, I understand your concerns, but I have my considerations and plans, the groups and private armed organizations in Myanmar are our hole cards, and the arms business is a way out for us, as for working in the imperial capital, I know that it is very difficult, but I am confident that I can do it well." ”

His voice was full of determination and confidence, as if he was fully prepared.

Zhang Songwen looked at the summer night, and a look of appreciation flashed in his eyes.

He understood Summer Night's thoughts and determination, and he knew that this young man had extraordinary abilities and courage.

He was silent for a moment, then said slowly: "Since you have already thought about it, then go for it, but remember, you must abide by the rules and laws of the empire, and don't make trouble for yourself." His tone was full of concern and reminders of the summer night.

Xia Ye nodded, and said gratefully: "Thank you Secretary Zhang for your support and reminder, I will definitely keep in mind your teachings and behave well." ”
