Qi Dalang had absolute trust in Qi Qingyun.
It shouldn't be too much of a problem for him to negotiate with the British. If something unexpected happened, the dishonest Duan Zicheng would not stand idly by.
Besides, this is about bullying the weak, so what else is there to worry about?
After talking about this, Sun Dacai said again: "Ah Man, you promoted Qingyun, and your sister and I are very happy. However, we still feel that it is not satisfactory."
Qi Yu wondered: "Oh? Why is this?"
Sun Dacai sighed and said: "Qiaoyun is getting older and has reached the age of starting a family. If she always stays at home and does not go out, others will gossip about her."
It should be put on the agenda that male college students should get married and women college students should get married.
Sun Qiaoyun is now in his prime years, so it's no wonder that Sun Dacai and his wife are a little anxious.
In fact, Qi Yu has been thinking about this matter.
However, the current situation is special and it is not appropriate to force a match.
Qi Qingyun is currently guarding the border and cannot make changes in a short time. Therefore, his marriage can only be put on hold for the time being.
However, he has made an exception and promoted him to the commander of the capital of Qiongzhou Province. I believe that in the near future, he will enter the capital to discuss affairs.
By then, it's not too late to get married.
Qi Yu smiled faintly and advised: "Qingyun is so busy with military affairs that he has no time to take care of personal matters. As elders, we should understand him. Go back and tell your sister that everything should be done with the overall situation in mind and don't be too impatient."
After a pause, he took himself as an example and joked: "Our Xiaotong is not too young. Have you ever seen me rush her?"
That's true!
After hearing this, Sun Dacai nodded in relief.
Speaking of Xiaotong, he suddenly remembered a rumor about her, so he said: "Aha, according to the Hai family who returned from Australia, the eldest niece has gone on a trip overseas. It is impossible for her to come back in a short time." Come on. So, her marriage will be delayed longer than you think."
"What? Going on a visit abroad?" Qi Yu was startled when he heard this, and asked curiously.
"Um……"
"Tell me the details quickly..."
However, Sun Dacai didn't know much about this matter. He could only piece together a rough outline through the rumors he had obtained.
He said that Australia is now a nation, and its country is called Dahua. And niece Xiaotong is the country’s first president.
As for what position the president held, he couldn't tell.
Not long ago, as the then president, she suddenly received a warm invitation from the people of Great Britain, so she embarked on an overseas trip.
It is said that he has been gone for several months.
What?
Australia is a nation?
Qi Yu was shocked when he heard this.
But soon, he calmed down.
Previously, because I was eager to plan a future retreat, I came up with a grand plan to build Australia. According to the original idea, it was to develop the area into an independent autonomous region similar to Qiongzhou.
As a result, Xiaotong unexpectedly founded the country directly.
Although there is no difference in the development model of the two, the senses they give people are different. Take Jin Shang as an example. What would he think after hearing about this matter?
In addition, there is also public opinion turmoil in the officialdom. Where will it lead?
These things are all unknown.
Alas, forget it!
Now that the wood has become the boat and the rice has become the cooking pot, it is absolutely impossible to turn back the established history.
Regardless of whether it is right or wrong, this is the only way to go.
Regarding this point, Qi Yu was very thoughtful.
But, what is the purpose of Xiaotong’s visit?
Very incomprehensible.
Ordinarily, for such a big matter, she should write a letter and inform herself.
Could it be that she has something special in mind?
However, after struggling for a few seconds, Qi Yu corrected his attitude.
Now that Australia has established a nation, it belongs to an independent governing system, and there is no need to intervene forcefully.
Xiaotong must have her reasons for doing this, and she should support her.
The matter about Dahua has been put aside for the time being, and the current focus will be on the East China Sea area.
At present, the game between Goryeo and Fuso is in full swing, and I must maintain a high level of attention and must not take it lightly.
…
In the hot summer, everything flourishes.
During this season, southerners generally advocate drinking more hot soups and eating less greasy fried foods.
But Qi Yu is an exception.
Recently, he has become particularly obsessed with a kind of insect delicacy.
Its name is: Golden Cicada.
Golden cicada, also known as crawling grasshopper, cicada monkey, and cicada turtle, is the larval body of cicada before molting.
After catching it, it is first marinated with salt powder, and then dried with a little hot oil over low heat. The taste makes even gods salivate.
It can be said that it is unparalleled.
However, what surprised Qi Yu was that this kind of delicacy was not very popular in the south.
Even the Cantonese people who pride themselves on eating all the species in the world shy away from it and dare not even take a bite. The same is generally true for Qiongzhou.
If no one eats it, no one will sell it, so if you want to eat it, you have to catch it yourself.
In this way, catching grasshoppers every night has become part of Mr. Qi's daily routine.
That night, as soon as the wine was cooked and the wine was poured, Master Yu rushed over smelling the fragrance.
Yu Hai and Qi Yu were both from the north, so he also had similar hobbies.
"Climbing grasshoppers drink wine, and the more they drink, the better they get. When it comes to such delicious food, how can Lord Qi enjoy its beauty alone?"
"What Mr. Yu means by this is that you want me to... share something?"
"Since Mr. Qi invites you so warmly, it would be disrespectful for Yu to refuse!"
"this……"
Where did I invite you?
How come you have learned to make something out of nothing?
Alas, I stayed up all evening and managed to catch about ten of them. If they were divided between two people, would it still be enough for the tooth festival?
have to!
As the saying goes, you get half the money when you meet each other, so let’s be generous today.
Qi Yu generously set aside five of them, poured him a glass of wine and said, "How can such a feast be without wine? Come on, come on, after drinking this glass, there are still three more!"
Yu Hai was not polite and sat down after hearing this.
After three drinks and one dish, the two started chatting.
When a man drinks, he will definitely drink water.
However, Yu Hai picked up a crispy grasshopper, bit off one of its legs and said, "Master Qi, does he know that in our hometown, this kind of golden cicada has another name?"
Qi Yu chuckled and said: "Although Qi is in a foreign land, he has never forgotten the humanity of his hometown. In our place, this kind of thing is also called a cicada turtle."
Yu Hai nodded and asked: "Do you know, sir, why it is called a 'turtle'?"
"This little bug is hunched over and moves slowly. It is very similar to a turtle, hence its name."
"Master Qi is a scholar of heaven and earth, I admire you, I admire you!"
After flattering him, Yu Hai suddenly hardened his expression and said, "Master Qi, does he know that there is also a turtle-like design among military battleships?"
"Battleship?" Qi Yu looked at the fried grasshoppers between his chopsticks and said with a confused look on his face: "It seems... we don't have a similar design in the Qiongzhou Navy."
Yu Hai smiled and said: "We don't have it, but that doesn't mean others don't have it!"
"Someone else? Who?"
"Goryeo!"
