Hearing that Liu Da was willing to go to South Africa, Liu Jin nodded with satisfaction.
Then he thought about it and said: "Although South Africa is a colony, it is actually an independent country, but its political system is completely different from ours."
"The core of power in South Africa is the shareholders' meeting. Shareholders enact laws, elect the governor, appoint colonial army commanders, etc. Although the governor has great power, he needs to be responsible to the shareholders and is also restricted by the South African Constitution."
"This is completely different from us. Where there is no monarch, the Governor-General of South Africa has always been elected through shareholder recommendations and everyone voted."
"But whether it is different from Daming or not, there are huge differences, etc., these are not important. What is important is that after you arrive in South Africa, you must learn to get along with others and learn to deal with interpersonal relationships. Only in this way can you consolidate and improve
The influence of where our family is.”
Liu Jin warned him earnestly.
"Children must remember their father's teachings."
Liu Da replied extremely seriously.
"Hmm~"
"Go down, take this time to say goodbye to your friends properly, and set off after the Lantern Festival."
Liu Jin waved his hand and said.
"Yes, father!"
Liu Xin and Liu Da replied in unison, and they also left Liu Jin's study together and went to find their mothers.
Here in Li Zhen's wing, Li Zhen is also waiting anxiously.
The son has grown up and it is time to plan his future path. Now that Liu Jin has called him into the study, it must be for this reason.
I don’t know how Liu Jin will arrange Liu Da. Liu Da is the eldest son she gave birth to and she has always loved him very much. That is to say, Liu Jin is extremely strict, otherwise Li Zhen will dote on Liu Da extremely.
There is no other reason, because Liu Da's appearance is almost exactly the same as Liu Jin's, and he inherited Liu Jin's appearance perfectly. He is handsome and handsome, and Li Zhen has been particularly fond of him since he was a child.
"I don't know how it will be arranged."
Li Zhen walked around anxiously.
She knew very well in her heart that it was definitely not Liu Dalai's turn to inherit the title of Duke of Liao, but Liu Xin. Then Liu Da might join the army in the future and work in the army like other noble sons.
But she also knew that her family's property was extremely huge, and it was hard to say whether it would be possible to arrange for Liu Da to take over part of the family's property.
Each arrangement will have a different fate and path in the future, which is very important.
"Mother~"
At this time, Liu Da walked in and saluted Li Zhen respectfully.
"How about it?"
"Has your father planned your future path?"
Seeing Liu Da, Li Zhen also asked quickly.
"Yes~"
"My father said that my brother and I have grown up and should shoulder some responsibilities and burdens, so he also arranged our future path."
Liu Da nodded and replied.
"How was it arranged?"
When Li Zhen heard this, she quickly asked with concern.
"My brother will go to the Ming Dynasty Royal Military Academy for further study and training. He should work in the military in the future."
"I was arranged to go to the South African colony."
Liu Da said with some sadness in his heart.
In fact, he didn't have much thought about the title of Duke of Liao. It was acceptable to pass it on to his brother Liu Xin. He just wanted to stay in the capital and stay with his parents, but now he suddenly wanted to go to the South African colony.
, it’s really too far away from my parents.
"To Colonial South Africa?"
When Li Zhen heard this, she was immediately surprised. She thought a lot, but she never thought that Liu Jin would arrange for Liu Da to go to the South African colony.
"I went to find your father. How could he be like this? In a place like South Africa, the ends of the earth are everywhere. Once I go to South Africa, I don't know how long it will take before I can come back and see you again."
As he spoke, Li Zhen began to cry: "He is so heartless, how could he be willing to arrange for you to go to South Africa? It doesn't matter where you want it, and it is a wild land with not many people."
"555, we have gone to South Africa. It will be an unknown number of years before we, mother and son, can see each other again. This heartless person, how could he do this?"
"The eldest son will be arranged to enter the military academy, and from then on he will become the prince of the country. The second son will be directly exiled to South Africa thousands of miles away. Such partiality."
As he said that, he was going to find Liu Jin, and was going to talk to Liu Jin properly.
"Mother, mother~"
Liu Da quickly grabbed his mother and said, "Father has his own motives for arranging this."
"What's the purpose?"
"It's not partiality."
Li Zhen sat down and said unhappily.
"Mother, our family is the largest shareholder of the South African colony. This South African colony is also one of our family's largest industries. At the same time, my father said that it is an important escape route for our family. If anything happens in the future, at least the South African colony will still be available.
It can be used as a fallback."
"So he hoped that I could go to the South African colony and maintain our family's influence in the South African colony."
Liu Da said quickly.
Things decided by his father cannot be changed easily at all, and it would be useless for Li Zhen to speak up.
"But, that's too far away, and it will be difficult to see each other in the future."
After Li Zhen heard this, she immediately wiped her tears.
The South African colony is now the largest overseas colony, the most powerful colony, and also the colony with the strongest economic strength.
My natal family also established a colony overseas with some people, but the area was very small, only the size of a state capital.
But even in such a small colony, all the money of her parents' family was exhausted, and she had to ask Liu Jin for help several times.
There is a colony overseas. This is the dream of countless big families and nobles in the Ming Dynasty, because the overseas colony is a small kingdom, something that can be passed down from generation to generation, and in the overseas colony, you are the sky, everything is
They all make their own decisions.
Now Liu Jin means that from now on, the family business of the South African Colony will be passed to Liu Da. This makes Li Zhen very satisfied. The South African Colony, my mother-in-law's dream is to expand the colony and make the colony more prosperous.
It's a little more lively, but it's still very, very difficult.
This South African colony is a role model for everyone and the envy of countless people.
But she couldn't be happy when she thought about the location of the South African colony. It was too far away and it was difficult to go back and forth. She didn't know when she could come back to see her again.
"A child can't bear to leave his mother and father~"
"But my father said that our family is not an ordinary family. Everyone in the family must shoulder the responsibility and mission of prospering the family."
"So even if it's far away, I still have to go. If I don't go, my brother will also have to go in the future. After all, someone has to go somewhere to shoulder the burden of our family in the South African colony."
Liu Da's eyes were also wet. When he thought about leaving the capital for the South African colony, he felt too much, too much reluctance to let go of everything here, to leave his parents, and to let go of everything here.
"Alas~"
After listening to this, Li Zhen had nothing to say.
Liu Jin was not partial, and this arrangement naturally had deep meaning.
She knew the situation of her family. Liu Jin was now the chief minister of the cabinet, but it was hard to say what happened in the imperial court. No one knew what would happen in the future. Now she would leave the capital, a place of right and wrong, and go to South Africa, where her own family could make the decision.
It may also be a good choice if you think about it.
"Since your father has arranged it this way, it must be his deep intention and consideration."
"You just need to do what your father arranges."
"It's just that it will be difficult for us, mother and son, to see each other in the future."
Speaking of this, Li Zhen also started crying.
When my son grows up and has to leave his own, it will be really difficult to see him again in the future when he goes to the South African colony.
"If mother doesn't cry, the child will find a way to come back to see you often."
Liu Da was a sensible child and quickly comforted him.
"Hmm~"
Li Zhen wiped her tears and said with a smile: "Take this time to say goodbye to your classmates and friends. If you have anything you want to eat or wish for, tell me and I will make arrangements for you."
Already."
"After I went to South Africa, it was no longer the Ming Dynasty. Naturally, it was far less prosperous and lively than our capital. Many things were not available. We just ate more when we were at home."
"When the time comes, bring more with you."
"Hmm~"
Liu Da nodded.
Speaking of classmates and friends, Liu Da's mind soon came up with a beautiful figure, a person he had liked for a long time.
With the rise of new learning, because in new learning both men and women can study and receive education together, naturally men and women have more contact.
It's nothing like that when I was a kid, but when I get older, especially when I'm in college, it's normal for me to have feelings for each other and to have feelings for each other.
Moreover, with new learning and new ideas, young people pay more attention to free love and oppose their parents' orders to find matchmakers. Although it is far from being as open and widespread as in later generations, there are still many short-term and long-term love affairs between each other.
The same goes for Liu Da. He has someone he has liked for a long time.
Thinking that he was leaving soon, and that he might never see her again, or that she might get married soon, Liu Da was extremely sad, and at the same time hesitant, not knowing what to do.
Should he bravely confess his love to her, and then seek the approval of his parents, and then propose marriage to the other person's family, and marry her back to his family, or should he just forget it and spend the rest of the day missing each other.
Liu Da's heart is extremely tangled and complicated. He doesn't know what to do. There are too many hesitations in his heart. He is also worried that his parents will not support him, he is also afraid of not getting the support and consent of the other person's parents, and he is also afraid of others.
