Respectfully

Boom boom boom!

The study door was knocked three times, and Song Zhou's voice came from the door: "Come in."

"Father, you called me?"

Song Wu opened the door and walked in. He saw Song Zhou sitting behind his desk, fiddling with a silver coin in his hand.

"Look at this." Song Zhou tossed the silver coin to Song Wu, Song Wu caught it with one hand, spread out his palm, and gave a pause.

This silver coin is different from the foreign silver circulating in China and the coins privately minted in various provinces. On the front is a side profile bust of a person, cast on the five years of the Republic of China, on the back is one yuan in the center, surrounded by auspicious clouds, and at the bottom is cast with Huaxia National Bank and silver seven cents and two cents.

"This is?"

"The military salary that was issued." Song Zhou's face remained unchanged, but his voice was a little low. "At the same time, he ordered the establishment of official bank accounts in the six southern provinces, and integrated the banks in the six provinces, which will be managed by the National Bank."

"Only the six southern provinces?"

"Every province has them."

Song Wu's eyebrows twitched, the official bank in the city?Did he want to give them a sweet date, or did he want to take the opportunity to grab their pigtails?

"You can take a look at this." Song Zhou picked up the document on the table and handed it to Song Wu. "At that time, the central government will send someone, and I will leave this matter to you."

"Yes!"

"I will leave for the capital in three days. During my absence, the military and political affairs of the six southern provinces will be entrusted to you. Read more and learn more. I will also explain to the people in the military government. With Qingquan and the others here, no one will intentionally fight with you. Difficult."

"Father, I..."

"You are my son, Song Zhou. Lou Shengfeng's son can take charge of the six northern provinces, and my Song Zhou's son is no worse than him!" Obviously Song Zhou held his breath with President Lou Da. It doesn't matter if you lose to him in the competition. The constitution stipulates that the president is elected every four years, so he still has a chance.But during Lou Shengfeng's stay in Beijing, the six northern provinces were actually managed by Lou Xiao. He was rigorous and decisive in his work, and his methods of handling affairs were no worse than Lou Shengfeng's, and even better.Song Zhou had long thought of testing Wu Song.Although he is nearly ten years younger than Lou Shengfeng, he has also reached the age of knowing his destiny. If Song Wu cannot take over this burden, in the future...

"Father, don't worry, your son will definitely not let you down!"

"En." Song Zhou nodded, gave Song Wu a few more instructions, and let him leave.

Walking out of the study, Song Wu stood in front of the steps, looked back at the closed door, and slowly clenched his fists.What Lou Xiao can do, so can he!The Song family will never lose to the Lou family like this!

On July [-]th, Song Zhou arrived in Beijing. He originally thought that Lou Shengfeng had specially asked him to come to Beijing for important matters, but he was told that President Lou Da would go back to the six northern provinces. During this period, Vice President Song needed to stay in Beijing. .And the reason he wanted to go back was because of his daughter-in-law's birthday!

"Brother Song, please take care of me during this period."

"..."

"This kid has been in Lou's house. He is running a factory and making money. He has been busy all the time. Last time he promised to take care of it. Who knew I was almost killed on the way." President Lou sighed. "It's all those Japanese bastards! Thankfully, Xiao'er taught them a lesson, and they are much more honest now."

"..." Is this showing off that his daughter-in-law can make money and that his son can fight? !

"Brother Song?"

"..." He didn't want to talk to this angry bastard!

The purpose of specially inviting Song Zhou to the capital was not because President Lou Da was confused for a moment and gave Song Zhou a chance to seize power, but because Song Zhou was there so that he could return to the six northern provinces with peace of mind.Song Zhou was in the capital, so Sima Jun didn't dare to act rashly. Similarly, with Sima Jun watching, Song Zhou couldn't cause too much trouble.Besides, the power of various government departments is in the hands of their own people, and the House of Representatives and the Senate are just decorations. Lou Shengfeng is not worried about Song Zhou's secret tricks.

President Lou Da hugged Lou Er Shao and laughed twice: "Son, are your father and I smart?"

Lou Er Shao turned his head and stretched out his hand to Mrs. Lou who was sitting beside him, mother hug!

"Ma'am, Mrs. Sun and Miss Sun are here to visit."

"Oh." Mrs. Lou took her son from the arms of President Lou Da, "Go and inform the second aunt, and let her receive it. If the fourth aunt and fifth aunt are free, they can join in the fun."

"Yes."

The girl went down, President Lou Da opened his mouth as if he wanted to speak, but he didn't make a sound.

"What does the President want to say?"

"Ma'am, is she the wife of the Deputy Minister of Communications? How can I..."

"The president wants to say, how can I let a few aunts and wives to receive him?"

"Hey, this is always out of order."

"Why, is the President taking pity on the woman?" Mrs. Lou put Er Shao aside and put away the smile on her face, "Could it be that the President really has a crush on that Miss Sun?"

"What did Madam say! I can be her grandfather!"

"But people don't think so." Mrs. Lou smiled coldly, "People admire the great president and the great hero."

Seeing the sourness in Mrs. Lou's words, President Lou smiled and rubbed his big hands, "Madam is jealous?"

"Jealous?" Mrs. Lou gave President Lou a sideways look, "I'm old and old, what kind of jealousy am I?"

President Lou's smile became more and more complacent, and he wanted to go to Mrs. Lou's side with a shy face, but the second young master Lou, who had finally stood up with the help of the sofa, suddenly let out a "Yiya" with a crisp and clear voice.Mrs. Lou hurriedly turned around to hug him, the smile on President Lou Da's face couldn't hold back anymore, no matter how he looked at him, he felt that this kid was not pleasing to the eye.

The elder son choked on his father all day long, and the younger son did the same thing. Did Lou Shengfeng have a natural conflict with his son?

Mrs. Lou didn't care so much, she scented Lou Er Shao's face twice, and Lou Er suddenly smiled like a flower, waving her little hands and babbling, which is not generally likable.

"President, do you see how likable Ruier is?"

Cute size!President Lou Da snorted, just like that unfilial son, he is his nemesis!

The three aunts were a little lazy in the afternoon, chatting casually in the second aunt's room, when the girl came to report that Madam invited them to receive guests, they couldn't help being stunned.

Let them receive guests?The Lou family doesn't have the rules of hospitality for aunts and concubines.

The second aunt asked in surprise: "Could it be someone from our family?"

"No, it's Mrs. Sun, the Deputy Minister of Communications, and Ms. Sun."

As soon as the girl said, the second aunt hadn't reacted yet, but the fourth aunt clapped her hands, "I remembered, it's that annoying Mrs. Ru who came to see you from the sky."

"What is like a lady?"

"Didn't Madam mention her yesterday? The wife of the Deputy Minister of Communications turned out to be a concubine."

"Ah, I remembered." The fifth aunt said: "That sister-in-law stole my brother-in-law..."

"Bah, what are you talking about!" The second aunt hurriedly stopped the fifth aunt, no matter what kind of character this Mrs. Sun is, it's not what they should say, gossip is a taboo in the Lou family, "You Go back to Ma'am, I'll be there later."

"Yes."

After the girl withdrew, the second concubine said to the fifth concubine: "Take care of your mouth, it's not good for outsiders to hear it."

"What are you afraid of?" Fifth Aunt Taihao waved her handkerchief nonchalantly, "Ma'am has already asked us to meet guests, and I didn't even try to save face for her. Besides, what face does she have? But she went to a foreign school for a few years , Just shouting about new women, talking about democracy and freedom, free to hook up with married men, or brother-in-law! I don’t want to be a concubine, but I would like to have sex without a matchmaker. If it weren’t for her family’s influence, her sister is also kind. Someone had to be soaked in a pigsty! It turned out to be good now, her sister was so mad at her, she pretended to be the wife of the wife. But she didn't even look at this place, and she was not afraid of coming to the door twice a day Dirty our house!"

"Where did you find out about this?"

"Do you still need to ask? Who doesn't know the wives and aunts in the capital? Except for those who are shameless and stinky, who doesn't read the jokes of the Sun family? Let us go to receive her, I feel ashamed."

The second aunt pondered for a moment, and then asked the waiter to take out her Suzhou embroidery cheongsam to change into. This was made by Mrs. Lou for several concubines. The material and style are all new. In recent years, the second aunt has rarely Wear such a fresh color.

"You guys also go back and change, and wear whatever is bright." The second aunt said to the two of them, "Since Ma'am wants to trample on Mrs. Sun's face, we have to trample on it to death! That Miss Sun... I'm afraid it's just a thought. The idea of ​​entering the presidential palace."

"What?" The fourth aunt exclaimed, "It's not the young marshal, but the president?"

"Nine times out of ten."

"The president can be her grandfather..."

"But people don't care. With the glory and wealth, who cares about these things." Fifth Aunt wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, "What kind of good thing is it that my mother is so pissed off and can be so warm with my enemy? I don't know What does the President think, a pear tree crushing a crabapple is a beautiful thing."

"Okay, don't make sarcastic remarks." The second aunt pushed the fifth aunt to go out, "Go quickly, so as not to make people wait in a hurry."

"Okay, I'll go, I'll show those two shameless people a good look!"

It wasn't the first time Mrs. Sun and Ms. Sun went to the door of the upstairs house, but it was the first time they were left hanging for so long.The tea in the cup was already a little cold, and only then did I see the three aunts and wives who were dressed "pretty well" came out.

The second aunt walked to the sofa and sat down, and laughed before saying anything: "Our sisters are playing cards, and we just couldn't leave, so Madam has been waiting for a long time."

Playing cards, can't go away?Mrs. Zhao's complexion suddenly became ugly, but she still suppressed her anger and asked, "Is Mrs. Lou not here?"

"Yes." The fourth aunt said: "But madam still needs to take care of the second young master, so I don't have time. If there are other people, we can't help, and we dare not come out, but the two of you are different." When it comes to Here, the fourth aunt deliberately covered her red lips and let out a chuckle, "Let's think together, it's not easy for the two of you to come to the door, and you can't let the two of you sit, so I simply withdrew from the game and asked my wife for instructions. Accompanying guests."

The fourth aunt said while looking at Miss Sun who was sitting beside her, "This is Miss Sun? She looks really good."

"That's not it." The Fifth Aunt sat closer to Miss Sun, stretched out her hand dyed with bright red Kodan and wiped the side of Miss Sun's face, "Tsk tsk, this looks really good."

Ms. Sun has never seen this scene before. Madam Sun usually takes her out to meet people. Even if they don't want to see them anymore, they are accompanied by the wife of the wife.

Finally, Mrs. Sun couldn't stand being teased by the three concubines, her tone became blunt, and she almost asked what the rules were, how could she let the concubines come out to accompany the guests!

"You are not happy, and we are not happy!" Fifth Aunt pulled her face down, "What kind of good do you really think of yourself? We are concubines, but we were carried into Lou's house innocently. Although not Three matchmakers and six hires, there is also a matchmaker! What are you? Cooperate without a matchmaker, and have an affair with your brother-in-law! My mouth is dirty if I say it! And Miss Sun, you were born to the wife of the wife, your father The official position in the government is not small, why do you want to be sisters with us? Aren't you afraid to piss your mother off again?"

"Okay." Seeing that the fifth aunt was talking more and more shameless, the second aunt was too busy to stop her, and it was almost enough to talk about this, and it would be disrespectful to involve the dead, "Mrs. Sun, our sisters may not listen to what they say, but It's also true. Miss Sun, you have to think clearly, being a concubine is not as good as you think."

"I……"

Miss Sun just wanted to speak, but was pulled by Mrs. Sun.She looked at the second aunt with a frosty face, "I remember! You wait for me!"

"Wait?" Madam Lou's voice suddenly sounded, "Madam Sun is so majestic."

Seeing Mrs. Lou's appearance, the three concubines of the Lou family changed their publicity and lowered their eyebrows, "Ma'am."

Mrs. Lou went to the sofa and sat down, and waited for the three concubines to stand behind her politely before she said, "Mrs. Sun, what are you planning to make the Lou family wait for?"

Madam Sun's face turned pale from livid, "Madam, I was confused for a moment, it was a misunderstanding..."

"Misunderstanding?" Mrs. Lou smiled, "I don't think it's a misunderstanding."

"lady……"

Madam Sun still wanted to beg for mercy, but Madam Lou directly asked the butler to see the guests off.Mrs. Sun and Ms. Sun were almost kicked out of the presidential mansion. The butler stood at the door of the mansion and deliberately raised his voice: "It doesn't matter if it's the presidential mansion or the marshal's mansion. Anyone can enter if they want to!"

The eyes of everyone on the street fell on the mother and daughter of the Sun family, and they all started pointing and whispering to them with a different meaning.Mrs. Sun and Miss Sun wished they could find a crack in the ground to get in.Covering his face with an ugly expression, he rushed out of the crowd.When the girl who followed them came up to meet her, Mrs. Sun slapped her with hatred and cursed, "Where did you die just now?!"

The girl who was slapped didn't dare to make a sound, she covered her face, who would dare to step forward like that just now?What a shame!

This incident spread throughout the capital that day.Those who have been following the news of the Presidential Palace are secretly shocked. Is this Mrs. Lou trying to make an example of others?If it is just a simple warning to those who want to send people to the President, why mention the Marshal's Mansion?

The Six Northern Provinces, Marshal's Mansion, Young Marshal Lou?

Could it be that Mrs. Lou is going to tell the entire capital, not just the President, but those who want to send someone to Young Marshal Lou, it's better to rest their minds?

But, but Lou Xiao's wife is a man and doesn't take concubines, so is it possible that he will never succeed?

No matter what the people in the capital thought, after Mrs. Sun and Ms. Sun's incident, the President suddenly calmed down a lot. Two days later, the family packed their bags and boarded the train back to the six northern provinces.

At the same time, a train from Shanghai pulled into Tianjin Station.

Liao Qiting got off the train with a few entourages and walked out of the platform.Different from the past, this time, he was accompanied by a woman with a better face.Liao Qiting's entourage and bodyguards all knew that this woman was a girl from Changsantang and was redeemed by the young master Hua Dayang. They all thought that the young master was fascinated by this woman and planned to take her as his concubine.When the old master learned about this, he even sent a telegram to scold the seventh young master. Although the Liao family is not a scholarly family, it is also a wealthy family, and there is no reason to accept a prostitute!Young Master Liao Qi had a stubborn temper and insisted on keeping this woman, and brought her with him when he came to the north.The old man was so angry that he scolded several times, but Liao Qiting didn't let go, and could only let him go in the end.It's just an aunt, that's all!

"Jin Zhi, I want to do something in Tianjin, and then I will take you to Guanbei."

A group of people went into a hotel and booked a room. Although Jin Zhi was redeemed by Liao Qiting, she lived with him all the time, but Liao Qiting never touched her.When she arrived in Tianjin, she even arranged a separate room for her in the hotel.

"Master Liao is so kind, Jin Zhi has nothing to repay."

The woman Liao Qiting called Jin Zhi was the same Zhi'er who was taken away from the Li family by her elder brother.When she got home, she found that her mother had already died. Her elder brother owed a lot of gambling debts, and took her out of the Li family with the idea of ​​selling her again.

Zhi'er tried to run twice, but was caught back both times.Her elder brother also knew that the second wife and the third young master of the Li family treated her differently, so he didn't dare to sell her blatantly in Guanbei City, so he had to sell her to a human trafficker from the south. The 12 yuan Dayang, finally reluctantly repaid the gambling debt.Zhi'er and several other girls were sold all the way to Shanghai. Because she was good-looking and could read a few words, she was bought by an old bustard in Changsantangzi, and she was not reduced to a more dirty place. .

Later, he met Liao Qiting, who accidentally learned that he had been the third young master's personal servant, so he was redeemed from the building.

She didn't know what Liao Qiting was going to do, the only thing she could be sure of was that if this person really planned to harm the third young master, even if he was her benefactor, she would fight him desperately!

Li Jinyan at this time didn't know what happened to Zhi'er after leaving Li's house, and he didn't know that Liao Qiting was planning to bring her to find him.He was standing next to the newly completed runway with Young Marshal Lou, waiting for the test flight of the first aircraft produced by the Aircraft Factory in Six Northern Provinces.

This wooden biplane is very simple in shape and uses a gasoline engine independently produced by the engine factory. Li Jinyan once wondered whether this thing can really fly into the sky?Even though he knew that the planes in World War I were like this, even though he had seen similar pictures before, he still couldn't help being worried when he saw the pilot get into the plane.

"Young commander..." Li Jinyan grabbed the cuff of Lou Xiao's uniform, "I'm a little worried."

Young Marshal Lou didn't speak, he clasped Li Jinyan's hand behind his back, and held it firmly in his palm.

The next moment, the ground crew signaled that everything was ready, the roar of the propellers reached the ears, and the plane began to taxi on the runway, one meter, ten meters... Finally, under everyone's gaze, this plane that cost a lot of people's efforts, Finally flew into the blue sky!

Everyone held their breath and couldn't believe their eyes. When they saw the plane passing by in the sky, everyone shouted excitedly.

airplane!

This is a Chinese plane!

The plane made by the Chinese themselves!

Every part is made by them themselves, and every detail has been carefully polished. The eye sockets of several old masters present began to get wet, and Li Jinyan also felt his nose sore, but at this moment a big hand pressed down on the top of his head, "Successful!" .”

Li Jinyan rubbed his face vigorously, "Yes, young commander, we succeeded!"
