Literary Heroes of the Republic of China

Mu Qiong asked Huo Ying, only to know that this family of Russians was brought back from Russia by Huo Ying, and they were the housekeeper and his wife of a certain noble family.

When Huo Ying left Russia, the revolution there had not yet broken out, but the situation was already very tense. The tsar was under surveillance, and some nobles who had been domineering and oppressing the people were brought to justice.

The nobleman served by the family in front of him was one of the "unlucky ghosts" who were overthrown, and after the nobleman was captured by the "mob", the family began to wander.

They had no land of their own, all their property was taken away, and their lives were very difficult. The skin on the face of the chubby hostess was drooping now.

"This family has served the Russian nobles for generations, and they are all educated. The Russian language should be more pure than that of Yue Chaoying. If you follow along, you will definitely be able to learn Russian." Huo Ying said.

"Then thank you second brother." Mu Qiong said, Yue Chaoying was about to leave for Europe, and he was worried about how to continue with his half-learned Russian.

Huo Ying thought for a while and said: "Since this wife has already been given to Mu Qiong, please take this husband, Yunan! They all know how to cook and can cook Russian food, but it's not very delicious... ...Oh, the taste of that barbecue is still good." After Huo Ying took over the family, he wanted to live the life of a Russian noble at first, but he couldn't speak the language!

Although he brought an interpreter, it is impossible for the interpreter to follow these servants all the time, and the road is inconvenient... So far, he has not enjoyed anything, and he is too lazy to bother with it.

"Thank you very much." Fu Yun'an did not refuse, Mu Qiong likes to eat meat very much, if this person can cook barbecue, then it would be nice to stay with him.

There is also Russian, which he also wants to learn.

Seeing that Fu Yun'an agreed, Huo Ying asked the Russian translator beside him to tell the two Russians his decision.

Mu Qiong heard that the Russian translator told the middle-aged couple to let them work for him and Fu Yunan in the future, and then the middle-aged couple bowed to him and Fu Yunan, and asked the translator what to do for their children.

This middle-aged couple brought four children, a young man in his twenties and four girls aged eleven to 20. The boy was very handsome, and the three girls were even taller. They are very beautiful, not even like the children of this middle-aged couple... Now that they heard that their parents were going to work for Fu Yun'an and Mu Qiong, they were a little uneasy and didn't want to be separated from their parents.

The translator told Huo Ying their concerns.

Huo Ying said: "Tell them, these young ones will work for me in the future, as Russian teachers to teach my workers."

The translator quickly told the family what Huo Ying said.

The family members were overjoyed, without a trace of dissatisfaction, and even began to thank Huo Ying non-stop, and praised Huo Ying in various languages.

For half of those words, Mu Qiong had no idea what they were talking about, and for the remaining half, he had to guess and guess to figure out the meaning. He tried to ask them in Russian why they were so grateful.

The family did not expect that Mu Qiong could understand Russian, the middle-aged man paused slightly, and then said: "Mr. Huo is a respectable gentleman!"

Huo Ying is so kind to this family!

Huo Ying picked them up, gave them food and clothing, but didn't let them squeeze them and make them do many things, and didn't even shoot at their daughters...God knows how much effort they have put in to protect their three daughters!

Before seeing Huo Ying, their daughter even had to smear horse manure on her hair and face.

Later, seeing that Huo Ying was very friendly to them, and the people around Huo Ying were also very decent, their daughter finally washed herself clean.

But after they came to Shanghai, they were unavoidably worried that Huo Ying would give their daughter as a gift to others...

He had been serving the nobles before, and he had heard something about this country. It was said that women from their country were very popular in this country, and some people were proud to have women from their country as concubines.

In the end, Huo Ying didn't do that!

Huo Ying also asked their children to be teachers!

That's a teacher!They couldn't be more grateful.

In Russia before, the concept of class was quite strong. At least, servants like them would generally be servants for the rest of their lives, and it was even more impossible for their daughters to become teachers.

This man talked to Mu Qiong a lot, and considering Mu Qiong's Russian is not good, he kept speaking in simple sentences, coupled with body language.

"What are they talking about?" Huo Ying asked the translator.

The translator immediately relayed the gratitude and gratitude of these people to Huo Ying.

Huo Ying: "..." He wasn't interested in Lao Maozi, so he didn't touch those women. He didn't expect that this would make them so grateful...

Huo Ying then asked one more sentence: "Don't let people bully those children in the future." When he was in Russia, he met many people living in hardship, and finally chose to save this family because he saw the couple protecting their children.

Huo Ying's men agreed, and then glanced at the four children.

What a child!The age of these four people is much younger than their actual appearance. The oldest one is a girl. At first, they thought she should be in her 20s, but she was only 17...

Such a group of half-grown children should be watched carefully. This is the kind of person... Can they be good teachers?

"Why did the second brother think of letting them be teachers?" Mu Qiong asked.

Huo Ying said: "I want to train some people who understand Russian to help with business." According to Tianxing, some Russian nobles should flee to their country in the future.

And after those Russian nobles came to their country, it was impossible to stay in a remote place, and they would definitely choose to live in the concession.

Tianjin and Shanghai should be their preferred places of residence.

Huo Ying felt that it was necessary for him to train more people who could understand Russian to help him do business.

Thinking of this, Huo Ying suddenly thought again: "By the way, in addition to letting them teach others Russian, let them teach them Chinese too! These few people can help me with my work after they have learned Chinese!"

Huo Ying quickly arranged the lives of these Russians, and then asked Fu Yun'an: "Yun'an, how is your mother?"

Before Huo Ying left Shanghai for Russia, Fan Zhenzhu was ill, but it has been a long time now...

"Her illness has not fully recovered, so she has been staying at home." Fu Yun'an said.His mother suffered in the early years, and now that she is not young, she must have some illnesses. After coming to Shanghai this time, she was probably stimulated and not acclimatized. She has been ill for several months. At the same time, he persisted in trying to persuade him to "reform evil and return to righteousness".

Fu Yun'an would go to her place every week, and every time he went there, he would basically listen to her chattering about asking him to marry a wife and have children.

"I'm going back to Shanxi in a few days, and I'll bring her with me then." Huo Ying said.He wants to go back to Shanxi, and then come to Shanghai to accompany Fu Yun'an during the Chinese New Year.

"Second brother, it's hard work." Fu Yun'an said, and couldn't help asking: "Second brother, what plans do you have for your future?

He knew that Huo Ying didn't have the problem of liking men like him, but for some reason Huo Ying always avoided women like a snake.

"I want to make more money in the future and become the richest man in the world!" Huo Ying's goal is very big.

Fu Yun'an laughed: "What I want to ask is the second sister-in-law..."

Huo Yingdao: "What's so good about a woman, it's preventing me from making money!"

After he finished speaking, he stood up: "I just came back, there are many things waiting for me to do, so let's go first!"

Huo Ying ran away after speaking.

Fu Yun'an originally just asked casually, but Huo Ying's attitude really made him a little worried.

It was not surprising for Mu Qiong to see Huo Ying's attitude. After all, the "Grandpa Huo" in his previous life was never married and had no children, and finally donated all his money.

Huo Ying had already returned, so Mu Qiong sent a letter to Yue Chaoying, and Yue Chaoying immediately expressed that he hoped to visit Huo Ying soon.

It just so happened that Huo Ying had just returned from Russia and was also happy to see Yue Chaoying, so the next afternoon, Mu Qiong accompanied Yue Chaoying to see Huo Ying.

Huo Ying was in his factory, and their carriage stopped at the gate of the factory. When they got out of the car, Mu Qiong felt a little warmer—the sun is really good today!

Time flies. Not long ago, it was September in the Gregorian calendar, and the school started. In the blink of an eye, it was already December. Christmas is coming, and the weather is getting colder.

Fortunately, the sun is shining and there is no wind these days, and everyone is not cold. After entering Huo Ying's factory, you can still see smiles on the faces of every worker in the factory.

The workers here were brought back by Huo Ying from various disaster-stricken places. When they came, they were all sallow and thin, but now they are all fat because they are all old and tall.

Mu Qiong brought students from his school to live here before, so all the workers knew him. At this time, they greeted Mu Qiong with a smile: "Hello, Principal Mu!"

"Hello." Mu Qiong nodded towards them and walked to Huo Ying's office.

Looking at the workers, Yue Chaoying was very emotional: "I knew that Huo Ershao opened the factory and helped many people, but I didn't expect him to do better than I imagined...The condition of these workers looks pretty good. "

Han Zhen said: "Although some people say that Huo Ershao is a profiteer, in my opinion, Huo Ershao is a great kind person."

Both Yue Chaoying and Han Zhen had a good impression of Huo Ying. After meeting Huo Ying, their attitudes were naturally very good.

Although Huo Ying doesn't like to socialize with others, he still respects those who are capable, so the two sides had a good chat and talked a lot about Russia.

Huo Ying just went to Russia, and learned a lot about Russia and the West from "Tian Xing". When he talked about the international situation, he was straightforward and had unique insights, which made Yue Chaoying look at him with admiration.

While the two were talking, Yue Chaoying said that he wanted to go to Europe.

Huo Ying is very supportive of this matter. Before Yue Chaoying went to Russia, he had dealt with countries such as Britain and France. There was even a French official who said that he was an admirable Chinese... He was in Europe and knew him well. Some people Huo Ying can't get in touch with at all.

Huo Ying added a few more people to Yue Chaoying's team heading to Europe, planning to find a way to benefit himself when the time comes.

The more the two chatted, the happier they became. At this moment, a steward came in: "Second Young Master, some foreigners are here! Their status is precious, we dare not stop them, they have already entered."

At the same time, Gao Shengxi also sneaked into Huo Ying's factory.
