The first thousand three hundred and seventy-eight chapters of Wei Guogong's thanks
"My dear nephew, come here"
Zhu Pingan and his colleagues from the Criminal Division said goodbye to Hu Zongxian. After walking a few steps along the street in front of the patrol office, they heard a familiar voice in front of them. Zhu Pingan looked up and saw the Marquis of Linhuai waving to him.
Next to the Marquis of Linhuai, there is an official who is a few years older than the Marquis of Linhuai. He is two times smaller than the Marquis of Linhuai. He is wearing a military attaché uniform with a brave leopard embroidered on it. This is a third-grade military attaché uniform.
.
The two of them were two levels apart in class, but they hugged each other, talked and laughed, and seemed to have a good personal relationship.
Well, this official is probably the Duke of Wei, Zhu Ping'an guessed.
Zhu Pingan confessed to Master Zhetai, Chu Xiong and others. Zhetai and others also noticed that Marquis Linhuai greeted Zhu Pingan, asked about the identity of Marquis Linhuai, nodded with a smile, and signaled Zhu Pingan to go.
No problem.
"Uncle, who is this lord?" Zhu Ping'an said goodbye to NiTi and others, came to the Marquis of Linhuai and bowed his hands in greeting, asking for the identity of the person next to him.
"Haha, my dear nephew, I am about to introduce you to the Duke of Wei." Linhuai Marquis introduced with a smile.
It turned out to be Wei Guogong, just as he had guessed.
After being introduced by the Marquis of Linhuai, Zhu Ping'an smiled and bowed his hands to the Duke of Wei, saying, "I will pay my respects to the Duke of Wei."
"Haha, it's natural to call Zihou like this. I am a close friend of the Marquis of Linhuai. We are close friends and are as close as brothers. Zihou, you are the nephew-in-law of the Marquis of Linhuai, so you are also my nephew-in-law.
"If you don't mind my nephew Zihou, you can just call me uncle." Wei Guogong said to Zhu Ping'an with a smile.
"Ping'an is a blessing in disguise. Let's meet my uncle." Zhu Ping'an responded with a smile and greeted him as his nephew.
"Haha, what a good nephew." Wei Guogong smiled brightly.
"Thieves, please don't think that just because you have a good relationship, you will be able to deny your gratitude." Linhuai Marquis bumped Wei Guogong with his shoulder.
"What kind of thief? I was just a reference. Why don't you thank me? Am I that kind of person?!" After hearing what the Marquis of Linhuai said, Wei Guogong couldn't help but blush. His face turned red like Guan Gong, and he stiffened his neck and replied.
.
"Haha" Linhuai Marquis chuckled and rolled his eyes with his squinted eyes.
"Ahem, nephew, last time you gave the Marquis of Linhuai some insights on how to replenish warships, but he stuck to his old ways and was stubborn. It's not that Bole didn't recognize your nephew's insights. I was different. I was your nephew at that time.
I was impressed by his true knowledge and insights. My nephew’s suggestions were to the point. He pointed out the problems existing in the current navy and put forward practical suggestions. It would be a pity to abandon such good words. I can’t bear to let the pearl be dusted. So,
So I adopted my nephew’s suggestion and suggested to the Holy One to add more warships, and the Holy One actually agreed to the suggestion.”
Wei Guogong coughed and explained to Zhu Pingan.
"It's an honor to be accepted by my uncle." Zhu Pingan said with a smile.
"Marquis of Linhuai, look at my nephew and then at you, are you sorry? My nephew has a much broader mind than you."
When the Duke of Wei heard this, he was overjoyed. He couldn't help but bumped Linhuai Marquis with his shoulder and joked with a smile.
"Don't talk about these things. Where are the thanksgiving gifts?" Linhuai Marquis stretched out his fat paw and pushed Wei Guogong away.
"Ahem, dear nephew, I heard from your uncle that you are in charge of rectifying the military equipment in Jiangsu and Zhejiang and leading the militia in the Criminal Division. My uncle doesn't have any good gifts to give you, so he will give you some materials needed for military equipment."
Wei Guogong coughed and said to Zhu Ping'an.
The military supplies are good, I like it. When Zhu Pingan heard this, he cupped his hands and thanked him, "Thank you uncle for providing help in times of need."
"Don't use junk against us." Linhuai Marquis interjected from the side.
"Do you think I'm like you? What kind of discarded products should I use to deal with Zihou? The materials I give to Zihou are all new ones."
Wei Guogong raised his chin and mocked the Marquis of Linhuai, emphasizing that all the products he gave Zhu Ping'an were new ones.
"What new product?!" Linhuai Marquis asked.
"Of course I will provide whatever my nephew needs," Wei Guogong said generously.
"Okay, this is what you said." The Marquis of Linhuai clapped his hands, and then said to Zhu Ping'an, "My dear nephew, it's rare for Wei Guogong to be so generous. If you need anything now, just ask."
Last time, the Marquis of Linhuai gave him a batch of obsolete military uniforms, as well as spears, swords, long bows, damaged armor, and three hundred muskets. Currently, what he lacks are tents, armor, and artillery.
Zhu Ping'an thought for a moment, then handed over his hand to Wei Guozheng, "Uncle, the food and salary allocated by the court are limited and it is difficult to maintain. At present, our militia still lacks tents, armor, muskets, artillery, and food and grass."
"Ahem, my dear nephew, it's okay to use muskets, but there's nothing you can do about artillery. These are all quotas set by the imperial court."
When the Duke of Wei heard this, he was sweating on his forehead.
"Hey, then why were you so shy just now and said that if Zihou needs anything, you will give it to him?"
The Marquis of Linhuai didn't waste the opportunity to laugh.
"Then you are better than giving only the eliminated products to your wise nephew." Wei Guogong retorted, and then said with a wealthy voice, "Although the artillery is hindered by the court's quota, I can't do anything about it, but I can do everything else."
"My dear nephew, I heard that you want to form a militia of a thousand people. Well, let's do this. I will allocate one hundred sets of tents and one hundred pairs of armor to you from the army. I have no choice in the artillery, but I can also give you two hundred fire guns.
branch."
Wei Guogong made a promise to Zhu Pingan.
"You are an elder, and you have used Zi Hou's good strategy. With this little thing, you still have the nerve to speak."
The Marquis of Linhuai scoffed, urging Duke Wei to bring out some more good things.
"These are all new for me, the camp tent is new, the armor is also new, and the fire guns are also new. They are all new products recently distributed by the War Bureau. Oh, by the way, nephew, I will give you ten stones of gunpowder again.
"Wei Guogong raised his chin and said.
"Well, the new products distributed by the Military War Bureau are fair enough." Linhuai Marquis nodded when he heard that they were new products distributed by the Military War Bureau. Although the products produced by the Military War Bureau are not all high-quality products, they are all of high quality.
Good stuff.
"Thank you so much, uncle, thank you so much, uncle." Zhu Pingan first thanked the benefactor, Wei Guogong, and then thanked the Marquis of Linhuai for helping him negotiate the terms.
"My dear nephew, you are so polite. Today, Japanese pirates are running rampant. I am trying to help the Zihou militia to share the worries of the Holy One and solve the problems of the people." Wei Guogong replied with a smile, and then encouraged, "Although it is a militia, Zihou should do his best.
If you have any problems in the process, you can come to me and the Marquis of Linhuai. We have been in the army for many years and we still have experience in the army."
"Thank you uncle." Zhu Pingan thanked you again, "I will ask uncle for advice from time to time in the future."
"I'll go back and make arrangements. Zihou can bring enough people to Zhenwu Camp tomorrow to collect tents, armor, fire guns and other supplies." When they parted, Wei Guogong and Zhu Pingan agreed on the time and place to collect the supplies.
