Codex of the Old Gods: I Have a World

While they were talking, the door of the Song family opened and Yao Jia walked out.

He saw Zhao Chuanxin and old man Xu puffing away their smoke, and stretched out their hands: "Chuanxin, give me a cigarette."

Then happily join the smoking army.

As soon as he raised his head, he saw the flirtatious woman leaning on the railing and smiling coquettishly. He waved his hand to her: "Hibiscus is not as good as beauty makeup, and the breeze from the water palace brings the fragrance of pearls and green flowers. Hello, sister."

徐老头：“……”

In fact, he really wanted to join these two brothers. However, he was old and ugly, had no poems in his heart, was not very lively, and was not sexy enough when he was drinking. He had no good looks and no interesting soul. I was afraid that it would be difficult to win over this little prodigal. mind...

The Fengchen woman's eyes lit up: one was tall, the other was handsome, and the one who got one of them would dominate Yi-Tong-zhou Fengyuechang.

Zhao Chuanxin complained: "Brother, it's not good for you to do this. After all, my old friend just died."

"You don't understand how to pass on salary. Only superficial people will have sadness on their faces."

"Don't be sad, just be more restrained. After all, I just touched my old friend's daughter's little hand, and it's still at the door."

"..." Yao Jia sneered and changed the subject: "What do you think of the salary transfer to the Repair Department?"

"I can watch it standing or sitting down. After all, I don't know what the Repair Department is."

"..." Yao Jia took three puffs and then threw away the expensive Laodao cigarettes: "During the Westernization Reform, the Jilin Machinery Bureau was the first factory outside the customs. It had two main tasks. One was to manufacture ordnance, and the other was to Second, the silver coin outside the customs comes from the mint of the Bureau of Machinery. The profits from coinage are used to supplement the funds required for military deployment. In the twenty-sixth year of Guangxu's reign, Tsarist Russia invaded and expelled the craftsmen, bureau members, and guards. , all the firearms stored in the warehouse were thrown into the river, the gunpowder warehouse was blown up, and the machinery bureau built with 200 million taels of silver and 18 years of work was destroyed."

"In the st year of Guangxu, Tsarist Russia took control of the Machinery Bureau and reorganized it into Jilin Mint. Last year, Governor Xu took the mint back from Tsarist Russia. Some time ago, Governor Xu made a statement to recruit merchants and invest in the construction of ordnance. This is where the Special Bureau and the Repair Department come from.”

"I was thinking that a place like this that specializes in the production of ordnance should be controlled by people from Lugang Town, so I thought of joining a joint venture with Lao Song to become a shareholder and get a promotion position."

"Before clinker Lao Song died, he may have been worried about the risks and did not want to invest anymore. He and I were both teachers and friends. Now we are gone and we only have one daughter. My descendants are sad on the surface, but in fact they all have ulterior motives and want to seize the family property. .”

"Hey, my niece is really having a hard life. I don't care whether she has money or not. But I have to pull my niece out of the hot water..."

This is obviously bullshit, just because you are greedy for someone else's body.

However, Zhao Chuanxin was quite interested in the Ordnance Bureau.

The only good thing these days is that individuals also have the opportunity to invest in the military industry.

Yao Jia thought about it and realized that if he lost Lao Song's part of the funds, there would be a hole in the money.

According to rough estimates, if he wanted to get a promotion, he would have to spend all his available funds, but still have a shortfall of yuan.

So he said: "If you lend me yuan to pass on the salary, I can get a promotion."

Zhao Chuanxin waved his hand generously: "Let's do this. I'll give you . You can get two promotions and give me one."

"..." Yao Jia's eyes widened: "Are you kidding me?"

"Brother, you drove first."

"..."

It cost two million to build the machinery bureau, but now the money is even thinner due to inflation. What's the use of yuan?

Yao Jia sneered: "I still have some money in my hand, is just a shortfall."

Zhao Chuanxin smiled and said, "Let's work together. I'll contribute yuan and you'll be your supervisor. You'll understand the structure of the Ordnance Bureau and the source of the machines. It may be of great use in the future."

"Okay, it's a deal!"

Zhao Chuanxin immediately wrote a note on the carriage with a fountain pen and stamped it with his seal.

Give this note to Zhao Zhongyi, who will withdraw yuan from the bank in Lugang Town and hand it over to Yao Jia.

Even though he has always been out of money recently, he has deposits in Lugang Town Bank.

In the end, Yao Jia did not go to have dinner with Zhao Chuanxin because he had to return to the Song family to help Lao Song's daughter take care of Lao Song's funeral affairs.

Zhao Chuanxin invited Old Man Xu: "Uncle Xu, shall we go to eat?"

Old Xu shook his head: "I have to keep an eye on the money. I'm not afraid of robbing or stealing."

Just as Zhao Chuanxin was about to turn around and leave, he heard a noise inside the Song family.

"How dare you, an outsider, dictate to our Song family?"

"Okay, my uncle has just closed his eyes, and you can't wait to take the family fortune and elope with this man? Is it because of your parents' orders or the words of a matchmaker?"

"How unreasonable..."

Old man Xu looked a little embarrassed.

It seems that he has done bad things with evil people.

Ordinary people are most afraid of being poked in the back.

But obviously Yao Jia did not have this realization. He said in a relaxed and cheerful voice: "As the saying goes, Yao Shijie is in the eyes of lovers, which only shows that my eldest niece has good vision. How much do you ordinary people know?"

"It's just to give you face by pointing fingers. Do you think I am willing to take care of it?"

"With Lao Song's little fortune, is it worth worrying about me? Do you think you are so worthless that you can't wait for Lao Song to die and can't wait to bully his daughter?"

Zhao Chuanxin was outside the courtyard, listening to Yao Jia's verbal battle with "the Confucian scholars" with an astonishing momentum.

Some young members of the Song family were yelling and cursing, as if they were about to take action.

Zhao Chuanxin couldn't let Yao Jia suffer, after all, Yao Jia's small physique looked a bit thin.

As soon as he pushed the door open, he saw Yao Jiazhen pinning a tough guy from the Song family to the ground and beating him...

Zhao Chuanxin: "..."

There were other members of the Song family who wanted to step forward to help. Zhao Chuanxin saw that this was not possible. Even if Yao Jia had some brute strength, it was difficult for him to fight with four hands, so he wanted to help again.

However, Yao Jia took out a horse brand poker from his waist, clicked it into the chamber, pointed around, and looked in all directions: "Zhuo, come here, let's see who dares to move?"

Zhao Chuanxin: "..."

"Okay, how dare you use a gun?"

"This person wants to rebel and report to the official. He must report to the official!"

Yao Jia spat, stood in front of the old Song Dynasty girl, and said disdainfully: "What kind of official are you reporting to? Zhizhou Zhu Zhaokui? Do you dare to interfere in my affairs? We people in Lugang Town always carry guns when we go out. What are you going to do? You rebel just because you say you want to rebel? I have read the Qing Dynasty Laws. Do you believe that I will accuse you falsely?"

The aggressive Song family members were restrained.

I don't know who the wife was, but she wanted to play tricks and roll around, so she rushed forward to tear Yao Jia's clothes off.

Yao Jia suddenly pointed to the sky: "Look, what is that?"

Everyone looked up, even the woman who wanted to make a fool of herself.

But Zhao Chuanxin didn't.

How could he be fooled by this childish trick?

Yao Jia rounded her arms and slapped the woman on the face.

"Snapped!"

Then he quickly retreated, covering his face, and shouted in aggrieved tone: "You stinky bitch, how dare you hit me? I have to shoot your man to death today!"

I boil!

Zhao Chuanxin was dumbfounded.

What a shameless person!

The woman originally wanted to cry, but Yao Jia was the first to complain. She stood there with a slap mark on her face and was at a loss for words.
