Chapter 409: A Special Gift
After coughing lightly twice, Sheng Yuan glanced at Xiao Chen reluctantly.
"Don't you say a word, these ships are all proposed by Lord Xiao to be transformed, where do I have that ability?"
"When I'm older, I can't compare to the thinking and ideas of young people, and I'm really a little ashamed."
The drawings are shocking enough, but the warships that can be built are even more admirable.
Judging from the appearance alone, the whole is more solid and solid, and various standing positions are set up in batches, making it easier to observe the enemy's situation.
This is something that a layman can see, and as for the details of it, only an insider can understand.
At this time, Xiao Chen strode over: "Sheng Duwei, you are worthy of being a veteran for decades, these ships are simply earth-shattering and crying ghosts!" ”
One loss and one boast made Sheng Yuan a little embarrassed.
He has built so many ships in his life, and if he wants to say that the real proud work is actually the result of the transformation proposed by others.
"Lord Xiao, you are the young talent, the old man is not worth mentioning in front of you."
This is definitely not a compliment, but admiration from the inside out.
He looked at the mighty ships on the sea: "These days, day and night, a total of fifty-two warships have been modified, and they will continue to be forged in the future, I don't know if they can meet the requirements?" ”
To be honest, fifty-two is still a bit unsatisfactory.
However, being able to change so many ships in a short period of time shows that Shengyuan has indeed worked hard enough.
Xiao Chen smiled: "It's okay to come, a hundred ordinary ships can't be worth an excellent warship, this is enough." ”
He turned his head and ordered, "Hongluan, go and get the money." ”
Ji Hongluan took a few small servants and carried a whole box of money.
These are, of course, provided by Concubine Jing.
There is money all over the world, and it is difficult to move an inch without money, this thing is indispensable.
It's just that she may not have racked her brains to think that she has prepared so much money, and Xiao Chen will spend it in the blink of an eye!
When I opened it, I saw that the silver tickets almost didn't blind people's eyes.
Sheng Yuan swallowed his saliva, a little frightened, "So much money? He looked at Xiao Chen: "I'm afraid it wasn't given by the imperial court!" ”
Just saying that Xiao Chen brought thousands of people over to exterminate the Dongying people was ridiculous enough, how could it be possible to distribute so much money to him?
Xiao Chen didn't hide it: "My own private property." ”
"Good fellow, you not only train private soldiers, you also!"
Sheng Yuan was a little annoyed, but after thinking about it, if he didn't train the army and didn't have an industry, then how could he deal with these Dongying people?
Despite all these things, Xiao Chen's ultimate purpose was to defend the national territory.
glanced at Wei Bai'an, who was calm next to him, and he probably knew everything.
probably figured out what Xiao Chen's selfless Xiao Chen did for their Jiangdong, and Wei Bai'an put all these out of the way.
Compared with his trust and respect for the imperial court, he now admires Xiao Chen even more.
He is more to maintain law and order in Jiangdong and make Jiangdong peaceful. The imperial court didn't care about it for so many years, and even sent thousands of people to perfunctory them.
But Xiao Chen was not stingy, risking being exposed, and joined hands with him to deal with the Dongying people.
Whether it is good or bad, heavy or light, he still knows it clearly.
If Xiao Chen really wants to rebel, then make it!
If the Son of Heaven does not love the people as the Son, why should he have the support of them?
He doesn't deserve it!
Sheng Yuan silently closed his mouth, and the thousand words in his heart also turned into a sigh at this moment.
"That's it, the sky is high and the emperor is far away. Over the years, Jiangdong has been asking for help and informing the people of Dongying about the trouble. ”
"Since the emperor doesn't care, then he definitely doesn't care about other things."
There was a bit of a personal emotion in this remark.
Since the dependent Son of Heaven doesn't care about them, there is no need for the common people to lick their faces and rub them up.
Loyalty that does not distinguish between right and wrong is called foolish loyalty!
"Sheng Duwei, since you're here, why don't you stay and have a meal tonight."
"To be honest, after coming here for a few days, I haven't learned much about Jiangdong's special dishes."
This time, there is more luck and less luck in dealing with Dongying people, even if there is really no return, at least let yourself experience the local customs of Jiangdong before leaving.
Sheng Yuan didn't refuse, Wei Bai'an patted his chest in a chic manner: "On the eve of life and death, it is time to be chic and presumptuous, so that even if you really die, it is not a grievance." ”
"I'll do the banquet, and I'll make proper arrangements for you at that time!"
He raised his eyebrows at Xiao Chen meaningfully, giving people a sense of foreboding.
The night is thick and the red lanterns are hung in the restaurant.
An elegant private room full of dishes.
This is a man's wine bureau Xiao Chen took Jin Chengzhong and Sheng Yuan to meet at the door, and the two entered together.
After the introduction of the private room, everyone sat down one after another.
Wei Bai'an picked up his wine glass, first greeted him politely, praised Xiao Chen, and left no one behind.
Don't look at his usual five big and three coarse, in terms of human sophistication, but he is still quite in place.
After a few people pushed the cups and changed the lamps, Wei Bai'an suddenly raised his glass and said in a high-pitched voice: "Life and death are unpredictable, and life must be fun in time!" ”
They then turned their heads and pointed their wine glasses at Xiao Chen: "Lord Xiao, I know that your happiness may not be the same as ours, so I have specially prepared some special fun for you. ”
When this guy spoke, he was already drunk.
Taking a sip of the wine, he clapped his palms.
The door was pushed open in an instant, and a bunch of women with various musical instruments, followed by graceful beauties with bare and slender waists, busy with light gauze, rushed in.
The women who played the music each found a place to sit down, and those amorous women who showed their waists landed in front of Xiao Chen and respectfully curtsy from him: "See Lord Xiao." ”
Xiao Chen was stunned, slightly drunk and instantly awakened, and glanced at Wei Bai'an blankly: "This is the special surprise you said?" ”
"That's natural, I've long heard that Lord Xiao is very persistent in beauty."
"This is the official who paid out of his own pocket and invited all the girls from Paradise Place."
"Anyway, you have to work hard, you can just enjoy it today, it's all yours alone!"
Xiao Chen almost didn't spurt out a mouthful of old blood.
Thank you so much!
Although I do like beautiful women, but I have to suffer seven or eight a night, aren't I afraid that he will die of exhaustion?
Besides, if Ji Hongluan and Yuluo knew about this, they would not have to directly turn the vinegar jar into the sky.
Although he loves beautiful women, it is impossible for him to do those ambiguous things with the strange woman who first intersected.
Xiao Chen was about to open his mouth to refuse, but Wei Bai'an didn't give him a chance, and waved his big hand: "Don't be stunned, play music and dance, I'm happy to serve Lord Xiao today, you all have a reward!" ”
Immediately, he grabbed Xiao Chen's neck again: "Brother, drink!" ”
