Xiao Chen and Jin Hongyuan left like this.
As soon as they walked away, a middle-aged man in a cloth shirt came out shakily.
"Sir, this Xiao Chen is not easy to mess with. Could it be that if you really want to fulfill his wish, what should you do if he has ulterior motives?"
Hiding behind the screen just now, he listened to all the conversation between the two and couldn't help but feel worried for Sheng Yuan.
Just as he had imagined, once Xiao Chen had ulterior motives, they would not want to stay out of it.
Sheng Yuan lay on his back on the chair, his expression full of helplessness and indifference.
Is he loyal to the emperor or to the great Chu?
If you ask yourself, it is naturally the latter.
If Chu Yanwu is really not a good bird, then is there any need for him to be loyal?
All this cannot be said to be one-sided by Xiao Chen. There have been many disasters in these years, and Chu Yanwu's attitude towards dealing with things is indeed thought-provoking.
He sighed deeply: "This matter is still embarrassing."
"With that guy Wei Baian joining the Taofa camp, even if Xiao Chen has other ideas, he may not be able to carry them out."
"Everyone has a responsibility to deal with foreign enemies. As a shipyard in Fuzhou, it is my duty to do so."
He threw out a piece of paper and said, "Instruct them to go down and repair the ship again according to the modifications here."
Seeing the complicated drawings, Military was slightly shocked for a moment.
"Sir, is what he said really reliable?"
Sheng Yuan glanced at him sideways, "Why, are you doubting my judgment?"
He knocked on the table, "I have been working as Du Wei of Fuzhou Shipyard for decades, and I know the craftsmanship and structure of shipbuilding well."
"If you can't even tell the difference between good and bad news, you'll be laughing your ass off, and you'll never be able to hold your head up for the rest of your life!"
I really didn't dare to say any more, so I hurriedly followed the instructions.
However, Sheng Yuan still found it difficult to regain consciousness. When he closed his eyes, he saw Xiao Chen's face. He was already very talented at a young age, and he knew the shipbuilding technology so well.
He has also been studying it for decades.
It’s so awesome and limitless!
He is not an evil person.
After leaving, Xiao Chen and the others met up with the remaining people.
Yuluo was extremely surprised, "Are you two okay?"
Ji Hongluan held her arms in her arms, her face full of arrogance, her little mouth pouted, and her face looked arrogant, "Are you kidding? They are the ones in trouble?"
"I don't know how high the level of the sky is. I want to bully us with the strength of our numbers, but I ended up being beaten to a pulp. It's funny when I think about it."
She rubbed her wrists, as if she wasn't satisfied yet.
Xiao Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Just calm down a little bit. If I hadn't stopped you, you would have pulled off Sheng Yuan's head."
"Who made him disrespect you?"
"You don't have to drink a toast and you're fined with wine. You give him money to revise your opinion, but he suspects that you want to collude with the Japanese?"
Regarding this point, Xiao Chen was indeed a little hard to accept.
This is the biggest insult to the Han people!
Waving his hand, he faced Jin Chengzhong: "Commander Jin, when you return, send a few people to guard near the Fuzhou Shipyard to avoid exposure."
Forced by the situation, he had to confess his thoughts of rebellion. In fact, he wanted to take a risk.
It can be seen that Sheng Yuan still has some loyalty and righteousness in him.
If you want to achieve great things, you must have people around you. If you can win over this person, it will be a boost to yourself.
It's just that the guy was too vigilant. Although he agreed to the deal on the surface, he still wanted to be just in case.
If this guy writes a letter to Chu Yanwu, I am afraid that if he goes to deal with the Japanese, Chu's army will rush over to wipe him out.
He couldn't take the risk.
Jin Chengzhong nodded in agreement, and then they returned to Jiangdong Road.
During the two-day journey, everyone took turns sleeping in front of each other in the carriage for several hours.
When we reached the waterway, we found a port not far away.
When walking on the waterway, you can see a dense number of figures in the floating water from a distance.
Yu Luo was overjoyed, "Sir, look, there are so many people over there and it's so lively!"
Squinting his eyes slightly, although the view was not clear, it gave people a shocking feeling.
Xiao Chen raised the corner of his mouth slightly, "It seems that Wei Baian is quite efficient in doing things. I didn't expect that he could gather everyone in just a few days."
When they arrived ashore, Wei Baian was still reviewing the troops.
Seeing Xiao Chen coming towards the wind, he raised his head arrogantly: "Director Xiao, you are willing to come back."
He was still not convinced about Xiao Chen.
However, I still have some admiration in my heart.
After all, he dared to challenge the Japanese and maintain the order and dignity of Jiangdong Road.
As a eunuch, this is already remarkable.
"The Governor's words are really chilling. Didn't I raise supplies for us?"
If you want to cross the river to the Japanese territory, you must have a warship.
Wei Baian glared at him, and suddenly felt depressed: "I heard that people in Jiangnan and Jiangbei are not willing to send troops to help?"
"Now that we are isolated and helpless, and supplies are scarce, do you still want to decide to fight?"
Wei Baian's emotions were very complicated.
I not only hope that he will be firm in his true intentions, but also hope that he can assess the situation.
The Japanese had been harassing them for a long time. If he had selfish motives, he would definitely have no choice but to lead his men in immediately.
But if he was careless and did not have sufficient supplies and armaments, he would be leading innocent soldiers to die.
People are so ridiculous and their behavior is truly shameful.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Chen said frankly: "Of course, I have already let the words out, there is no reason to give up halfway."
"Nothing is unachievable."
"What's more, isn't the reason why I left this time to solve the problem?"
"Within half a month, the warships will be delivered one after another. As for the supplies and winnings, you don't have to worry about them. This governor will bear them all!"
Counting the time, my heart should have arrived in the capital, right?
I hope Concubine Jing won't be too sad.
…
Inside the high-walled palace courtyard.
Staring at the letter that Xiao Chen sent back in a hurry from eight hundred miles away, Concubine Jing's face turned green.
"He actually wants to risk his own life to fight with the Japanese people, and also take away the profits that the Chamber of Commerce has worked hard on over the years?"
It clearly states that the money that belongs to Concubine Jing's shares is owed by Xiao Chen himself.
All future profits will belong to her.
Bai Zhi also looked a little depressed: "He did act impulsively this time, and it would cost him his fortune and his life."
"If something happens to him, what should you, I, and the Chamber of Commerce do?"
Although she usually talked back to Xiao Chen, she unknowingly relied on Xiao Chen and admired his abilities.
A subtle and special emotion quietly grows in my heart.
The air was silent, and both women were at a loss for words.
