Chapter 80: Cry when you are sad "Third update, please vote for me"(1/2)
Rongcheng.
But it’s a great place on the southwest coast.
The first is the geographical location. To the west is the North Sea, facing South Vietnam across the sea.
To the south are the Qiongzhou Strait and Hainan. Although Hainan at this period was still a barren land and its population was not large.
But don't forget, this is the bridgehead to Southeast Asian countries, known as the unsinkable aircraft carrier.
To capture Rongcheng is to capture Hainan.
The four counties along the southwest coast are connected into one, and together with the strategically important Hainan Island, there are 30,000 to 50,000 troops. It is not too much to call it the king of the southwest.
Once this place is taken, it can be the foundation stone for twenty years.
So how could Zhang Heng not miss Rongcheng?
It's just that Long Nanguang, the commander-in-chief of Rongcheng, is well connected with the surrounding maritime merchants, and with Prince Wuyi as his backer, it's really not easy to move him.
"Ah Heng, do you know Coachman Guang?"
Uncle Jiu looked at Zhang Heng.
"Carman Hikari?"
Zhang Heng looked surprised.
"Yes, he used to drive a carriage for his uncle, but it sounds like he is old."
Uncle Jiu was as good as the driver, so he obviously had no interest in Long Nanguang.
Mi Nianying saw him on the side and weakly defended her brother-in-law: "Uncle Jiu, my brother-in-law is no longer a coachman. You can't keep talking about things that happened more than ten years ago."
"Have it?"
Uncle Jiu was noncommittal and then thought: "How is your sister now? I haven't seen her since I received her wedding letter."
"My sister is fine."
"My brother-in-law has always been consistent with her over the years. He even didn't even marry a concubine for my sister. I don't know how many rich wives he has envied."
Mi Nianying looked adoring.
As the commander-in-chief of Rongcheng, what kind of woman do you want?
But my brother-in-law didn't want anyone, so he hung himself from a tree. He didn't change his original intention for more than ten years. This was not just love, but also added the word "respect". The so-called respect for each other is nothing better than this.
"I feel relieved that she is doing well."
Uncle Jiu was half happy and half disappointed.
I am happy that Lian Mei has not been wronged in these years, but I am disappointed because if he had not gone to Maoshan back then, he would have been the one who raised eyebrows with Lian Mei.
"Master, the tea has been brewed."
Without waiting for any further words, the literary talent jumped up and down.
Hearing this, Uncle Jiu recovered his thoughts and said with a smile: "Nianying, let's go to the living room to chat."
Behind him, Captain Ah Wei saw that no one was paying attention to him, so he followed quietly.
As he approached the door, Wencai turned around and saw him, the expression on his face immediately became unhappy: "Do you have anything else to do? Just leave if you have nothing to do."
"I'm thirsty after leaving. Please ask for a cup of tea."
Ah Wei answered and looked at Uncle Jiu: "Uncle Jiu, won't you drive me away?"
"Come in and have a cup of tea. I would also like to thank you for sending Nianying here."
Love the house and the bird, Uncle Jiu is very fond of Ah Wei's senses.
When Awei heard this, he proudly said "hum" to Wencai and entered the door in a majestic manner.
"Wencai, do you hate him?"
Zhang Heng asked as he walked behind.
Wen Cai answered truthfully: "This guy locked my master in jail for one night and almost didn't get shot."
After that, he added: "He has an impure mind. He was always pestering Tingting and wanted to marry her. Ever since he saw my master's ability, he has been pestering my master every now and then, wanting to be my junior brother. I am too lazy to care.
he."
Zhang Heng narrowed his eyes slightly.
If he remembered correctly, in a drama called "Mr. Fantasy", Ah Wei was Uncle Jiu's apprentice, and he seemed to be the only apprentice.
There was no Qiu Sheng and no literary talents there.
According to the timeline, it should be one or two years later.
"Nianying, how did you get here?"
Entered the living room.
Uncle Jiu asked Mi Nianying to sit down and poured her tea.
Mi Nianying sat on the chair cautiously, first looked around the living room secretly, and then replied: "I came by car. My sister has housekeeping rights. For the sake of safety on the road, she specially sent me a car."
"The driver is really rich, he even owns a small car."
Uncle Jiu was a little annoyed and immediately carried Zhang Heng out: "My nephew A Heng also has one. His family has dozens of large and small cars, and they can't even fit in them."
Mi Nianying glanced at Zhang Heng curiously.
Zhang Heng smiled and said nothing, and nodded as a greeting.
"It's quite late tonight, so you can stay here first."
"I'll take my guy and go with you early tomorrow morning. Your brother-in-law will be fine as long as I'm here."
Uncle Jiu was confident, and then he didn't forget to tell Zhang Heng and the other two: "Ah Heng, a literary talent, will take Nianying out for a walk after dinner. By the way, you can't bully her."
"Master, leave it to us."
Wencai was the first to answer.
Zhang Heng glanced at Wencai, whose face was full of joy, and then at Mi Nianying, thinking to himself: "Wencai, you must have made a mistake. This person is not a fuel-efficient person."
Mi Nianying looks innocent and cute.
But it's not really pure. In fact, it has little to do with looks.
"Master, we went out to play."
After dinner.
Wencai was impatient to go out and play.
Mi Nianying also seemed quite interested, looking at Uncle Jiu pitifully.
What else could Uncle Jiu say, he could only remind: "Watch the time and don't play too late. You must be back before nine o'clock."
"Don't worry, Master, I have the pocket watch given by Brother Heng, so I won't miss the time."
Wencai shook his pocket watch, took Mi Nianying's hand and walked out: "Let's go out and play."
"Ah Heng, look at them."
Zhang Heng walked at the back, deliberately not rushing out because he knew that Uncle Jiu would have something to explain.
Hearing the sound, Zhang Heng nodded silently: "Don't worry, Uncle Jiu, as long as I'm here, there will be no problem."
Outside.
Zhang Heng came out of Yizhuang and happened to see Wen Cai standing on the roadside. He touched Mi Nianying's hand and said, "Your hands are so beautiful, white and clean. Even the nails are trimmed very beautifully."
Mi Nianying didn't refuse and stood there smiling secretly.
"Ahem."
Zhang Heng coughed twice: "Let's go and visit Qiu Sheng's shop. He has been fixing tables, chairs and counters these days. Come over and help."
"Brother Heng, master asked us to come out to play, will you take us to work?"
Wen Cai's face was full of confusion.
Unexpectedly, Mi Nianying took her hand out and said enthusiastically: "Are you doing carpentry work? Okay, I haven't done carpentry work yet."
Seeing that Mi Nianying had said so, Wencai could only hold his nose and admit it no matter how reluctant he was.
A little.
The three of them arrived at the door of Qiu Sheng's shop.
The lamp was lit inside, and Qiu Sheng was hammering nails on the counter. He was so absorbed that he didn't realize until Zhang Heng walked over: "Hey, Brother Heng, Wen Cai, why are you here?"
After saying that, he noticed Mi Nianying behind the two of them and said happily: "Okay, you brought a girl from somewhere, can you bring her to me?"
"Qiusheng, do you know who she is?"
Wencai opened his mouth and asked.
Of course Qiu Sheng shook his head. He didn't have the ability to predict the future.
