The night wind in the Alps was really cold, not to mention mixed with the humid water vapor from Lake Geneva. It stirred up a layer of goosebumps on Wang Chen's back.
Wound! There are wounds everywhere, and even the shoulder blades still have half a palm-sized gauze attached to them. Knife wounds, bayonet penetration wounds, bullet scratches... The entire upper body has no good skin at all.
Xiao Letian stopped talking. This is the military medal that a soldier should have. The head of state was moved when he worked hard to this point!
People wanted to plead with the soldiers, but Xiao Letian smiled bitterly and said, "It was my fault. I didn't understand the military situation in time. It was my negligence!"
After speaking, Xiao Letian stood at attention and saluted Wang Chen with a military salute!
This frightened the soldier with even more goosebumps. He quickly replied incoherently, "I, I, I... Did I cause trouble for the Führer? It's my fault, my fault..."
"No! You're not wrong... This European war has been delayed for too long, and I didn't even calculate the merits for you in time!"
"I thought that food, drink, and monthly military pay in the army were enough, but I didn't take into account that you are all living, natural people, and you all have your own place to spend money..."
"Just like you, if you need money to pursue a girl, will there be a big family behind you to support? This is very possible!"
"What if you have a bedridden relative at home and the monthly medication cost is more than military pay?"
"Blame it on me! Pass my order and let Mr. Shi Yi from the foundation take charge tomorrow... Let him take the lead in setting up a financial institution affiliated with the military, and then contact a group of businessmen to put the soldiers' financial Demand, start this kind of business!"
"Damn it, pump 30% of the water, you dare to drink the blood of my soldiers, you are such a bastard!" Xiao Le was so angry that he cursed.
"Put on your clothes..." Xiao Letian touched his body and found that there was also a pack of British-made Bumajun cigarettes. He took it out and stuffed it directly into the pocket of his military uniform.
There are some words that Xiao Letian can't say. He can't say that the Chinese family's capital chain is so tight that it's about to break, right? Now the entire Chinese nation is relying on confidence to keep the country's financial market from collapsing.
In order to maintain the market credibility of Nanpiao banknotes, the old shopkeeper and Liu Henzhen were almost vomiting blood!
Now we are waiting for the French war reparations. As long as the French reparations are received, the Chinese financial crisis will be solved and all problems will be non-problems, let alone the bonuses paid by the soldiers.
Thinking of this, Xiao Letian said, "I just heard that the gifts you gave Huang Wanxia were all materials used when she came to build the school?"
"Yes! I think children here in Europe learn natural sciences, arithmetic, etc., but children here are taught reading and literacy..."
"Huang Wanxia wants to add some European science courses, but she has no textbooks and can only compile them herself. What I gave her are actually various materials. She can use whatever she can use!"
"In this case, the Borneo Education System should reimburse you for your money! I'll tell them to reimburse you later. This is business for you!"
"Don't... don't!" Wang Chen was anxious at the time. "How can this be done? If I spend money to give my woman a gift, wouldn't it show my sincerity if it is reimbursed?"
"We have such a good friendship, why should I let the government give me half of it!"
Wang Chen was so anxious that he immediately revealed what was in his heart, "I'm just hoping to impress her! You said I'm just a second lieutenant, so what if I get promoted to captain in the future?"
"So what if I'm a school officer? I'm the Minister of Education in Borneo. That's a high-ranking official! I'm not worthy of him either... If I don't impress others with this fool-like spirit, will I have a chance?"
"I'm not worthy of them! There are so many competitors, and I won't work hard enough to catch up with them. How can I catch up with them? Head of state, please don't hurt me!"
"Ouch! Are you hiding your bad intentions here?" The Yuan Dynasty laughed angrily, "Okay, you are cruel enough! But if you don't catch up in the end, aren't you just trying to get nothing in a bamboo basket? Thousands of dollars. All the silver dollars have been wasted!"
Having said this, Wang Chen did not hide it, "Hey... Head of State! What can you do in the world without risk? You are at greater risk in a war!"
"To be honest, I have other plans too!"
"When I chase this girl, others think I'm a toad who wants to eat swan meat, but I don't think so. I know clearly that it's swan meat, so why shouldn't I eat it?"
"Am I overestimating my abilities? That's wrong. I think I have courage. I'm better than those people who are wandering around in vain but are so desperate that they don't even dare to think about it, right?"
"I'm a toad, but I worked hard, I tried, I jumped! Who are you? You are all a group of people who accept their fate. They hide away when they see a beautiful woman, and they say it's not my fault, I have Self-awareness!”
"You shrink back when you see a beautiful woman. Will you shrink back when you encounter an opportunity to be an official? What about an opportunity to make a fortune? You don't even have the courage to venture into life, so you know how to laugh at me like a toad?"
Wang Chen laughed and blinked his little eyes and said, "Head of State! What if I succeed? I will just find a treasure! That is the main leader of the Borneo Uprising!"
"The dignified Minister of Education will also be a senior official in the Chinese court in the future! I married such a good wife, won't it be helpful to me in the future?"
"It's been a huge help! Will the thousands of silver dollars I've invested now count as money then? I'll be a school officer in the army, and my wife will be a minister in the court!"
"Hahaha... The graves of my pauper family's ancestors are smoking! Isn't this... what the newspapers say has changed the class?"
"I'm really leaping over the dragon's gate! So, don't be stingy if you can settle things with money! If you lose, it's just a few thousand in famine. If you win, I'll move up to a higher level!"
Xiao Letian was dumbfounded by this. This guy is smart and courageous. He really dares to spend a lot of money when he gets an opportunity!
You may see these people as ordinary people on weekdays, but once you encounter an era of great social changes, when the number of opportunities increases sharply, this kind of people, like awls, will definitely come to the fore!
"Don't be stingy if you can settle things with money... Well said! Well said!" Xiao Letian's mood suddenly improved. He waved his hand to let the soldiers go down to rest, and walked quietly to the lake alone.
Time passed by, and Xiao Letian was sitting on a bench by the lake, wearing two woolen military coats around his body, falling into a spiritual world that was almost Zen.
Forgetting both things and myself, when he opened his eyes again, he found that the first ray of dawn had already appeared on the eastern mountain line!
