Xiao Letian was most disgusted with kneeling rituals within the Chinese community. The bones of good Chinese men are just a little weak from kneeling. When he saw a man without braids and wearing a common work uniform in Tanggu kneeling down for him from a distance, he felt like having a fit on the spot. !
But when he heard the three words Enyangzhong, the unhappiness on his face faded a lot. "So you are an orphan from Enyangzhong... Get up, what the teachers taught you, don't always kneel down, no." Make a difference!"
Xin Jian's eyes filled with excitement, and he stood up tremblingly, "Thank you... Head of State, I have been greatly favored by the Head of State since I was a child. You have raised us with kindness, and you are our reborn parents!"
"There is no way to repay this, I still have to kowtow..."
Xiao Letian smiled bitterly and sighed, "Don't say that you have received any great favor from me. You should remember that it was the Chinese people who supported you, and it was your compatriots who supported you!"
"Although I am the head of state, how much money can I make by myself? How many enemies can I defeat? It is this powerful nation that provides you with food, clothing, and protection!"
"Remember the kindness of this nation, and don't always think that it is my kindness...Okay, Your Majesty, is this the person you want me to see? What kind of medicine is sold in this gourd?"
The conflict between Xin Jian and Zai Chun was actually a very small episode. Of course, the CIA had reported it to the head of state, but it was all mixed in a thick pile of information and was not specifically listed as emergency information!
Even if Xiao Letian is an iron man, it is impossible for him to understand what is happening in every corner of the entire Chinese clan. He has not seen the small conflict between Xin Jian and Emperor Tongzhi at all.
Zai Chun stood up and actually gave Xin Jian, a mechanic from Tanggu, a glass of wine with the dignity of an emperor. "This is the second time we have met! You pushed me hard last time!"
"I'm here today. I'm not here to punish you, but I'm here to offer you a glass of wine... From now on, I will have to trouble you with the many problems of the Capital Iron Works!"
Xin Jian never expected that Emperor Tongzhi would come up with this move. He Zhasha started to wonder whether he should take the glass of wine. Cai Bixia, who was not far away, saw clearly and stood up to take the glass from Zai Chun's hand. The wine was stuffed into Xin Jian's hand.
"Your Majesty gives you something to drink, so just drink it... I also looked at the list of people who will be assisted. Are you the captain of this first batch of assistance teams?"
"It seems that your skills and popularity are both top-notch. Your Majesty will have a lot of trouble for you in the future, so I should propose a glass of wine to you!"
Seeing that Xin Jian had taken the wine glass, Zai Chun turned to the head of state and smiled and said, "Master, you don't know something. When I got off the boat from Dagu Port, I inspected the Northern Industrial Zone!"
"In the steel factory, Master Weng had some misunderstandings with the workers. Xin Jian had such a hot temper that he led many workers to fall out with me on the spot!"
"When the trouble was at its worst, I remember that Xin Jian had a brick in each hand, and he was going to slap me on the head in the next second..."
Zai Chun described the conflict at that time vividly, but he said it in a very funny and relaxed tone, and he did not look angry at all.
"Master! The third thing about today's wine party is that the apprentice expresses his determination to the master!"
"I will never be a fool, and I am also a man who can afford to take things on and let go! Xin Jian and I appointed him as the chief technician of the Capital Iron and Steel Plant, and his monthly salary will be tripled according to his standards in Tanggu!"
"I just want to show it to the world. As long as you have the ability and are willing to work hard, it doesn't matter even if you contradict me!"
"Taizong of the Tang Dynasty asked Wei Zheng to impeach him every day and scold him every month. Didn't he get angry? There is no way I can let the ancients compare!"
"The disciple must also be a generous king with a mind that embraces the mountains and seas! Just watch, how can the disciple act like a master?"
"If I lose face, wouldn't that mean I lose the master's face? Don't worry, Xin Jian, I'll do it in the Jingshi Iron Factory just like you do it in Tanggu!"
"I am the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, but I am also a disciple of the head of state. If you serve me in this capital, aren't you serving the head of state?"
"I will never let down my master's kindness, nor will I let down your hard work!"
"If you believe me, just drink this glass of wine. From now on, I will rely on you for the difficult and heavy work in the Jingshi Iron Works!"
This time Zai Chun acted in a full set, and he was really willing to sacrifice his money. He actually cupped his fists with both hands and bowed slightly to Xin Jian, saluting as an emperor!
This scene moved the ministers and slaves of the Qing Dynasty to tears. Mr. Qing wiped his tears and choked with sobs: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty... wuwuwu..."
Looking at the servants in the palace, tears were falling down one by one. I don't know if the little emperor's virtuous behavior could win over Xin Jian, but he bought their hearts anyway!
The loyalty of these Manchu and Qing courtiers is constantly rising!
Although Xin Jian has a deep hatred for the Manchus, he grew up in this era after all and has a very strong psychological inertia. Social customs still have a great impact on him.
Hey... Xin Jian sighed and moved slightly, avoiding the direction where the emperor was bowing to salute, expressing that he did not dare to accept the emperor's salute.
"I am just a factory technician. I know nothing else. I will do whatever the head of state asks me to do. I came to the Jingshi Steel Factory and don't know anything else. Anyway, I will do my best to make steel well. Please rest assured, Your Majesty!"
After saying that, he raised his neck and drank the cup of royal wine!
"Good... so happy!" Zai Chun smiled and nodded, "My steel factory will rely on you more in the future!"
Xin Jian put the wine glass back on the table and looked at Emperor Tongzhi who suddenly said, "Your Majesty, wait! Since you want a highly efficient steel plant, many things must follow our rules!"
"I also have conditions, you have to agree!"
"Oh? But it doesn't matter..." Zai Chun responded.
"The common people are not polite. The first rule is that you can't let those eunuchs and officials bully people casually!" .
He told the story of Eunuch De's humiliation of the mechanic with added embarrassment. At this moment, Eunuch De's carriage was only halfway up the mountain, and there was no way to refute it!
Zai Chun's face became more and more ugly. He was originally using Xin Jian to put on a show, to show off his generosity and excellence in front of his master!
He didn't allow anyone to ruin the effect of his acting. When he heard that the dog slave was so arrogant down there, he immediately gave Da Sixi a sinister look!
"I asked you to manage the royal affairs room. You are in charge of all the eunuchs' rules in this palace. Is this how you manage?"
"Xiao Sixi! Is this Dezi your subordinate?"
The two hot eunuch supervisors, Big and Little Sixi, were so frightened that they knelt in the snow and kowtowed profusely with sweat!
"You two bitches, go down the mountain immediately, stop Dezi and drag him to the steel factory, and hit him sixty times in front of the supporting technician team!"
"Keep beating them until the mechanics calm down. If even one of them refuses to calm down, just beat him to death! Go quickly..."
No one dared to plead for mercy. None of Zai Chun's men dared to express their anger. At this time, the unlucky De Gongzheng ran towards the Caoting in a rolling and crawling manner.
"Slave, please bring me back to life..."
Before he finished speaking, Da Sixi kicked him directly in the chest. "You bastard, what kind of life do you want? Go back and apologize..."
Eunuch De was accidentally kicked and rolled down the mountain stairs like a snowball.
