Xiaoshandong did not bring a letter to greet him, but only brought a message.

Han Xiufeng knew that Wen Xiang and Wang Naizeng were very anxious, and was embarrassed to stay in Gu'an for a long time. He met more than 30 old brothers from Xiahe Camp, and gave some advice to Zhang Xiaobao, who had just joined the Heying Camp, and then said goodbye to Wang Qianli and Zhang Qingyu, and took Liu Shanyang and Xu Jiu and Xiaoshandong to a village about 40 miles away from the capital, located in Wanping.

It was late at night, and when I came in, I only vaguely saw twenty or thirty families at the entrance of the village. Until I walked into this house, which was probably five or six inside, Han Xiufeng discovered that the house had just been repaired, the stone slabs laid on the ground were new, and several doors and windows were also newly replaced.

It is obviously not the first time that Xiaoshandong has come. When he knocked on the door, he shouted to cook quickly. Now he is busy asking his servants to clean up the room. Wang Naiteng, who has already rested, hurriedly put on his clothes and went out to greet him. He met again after a long time of separation. After a long time of greeting, he sat down and talked about his business.

"This village and this house belong to Qingxian's family. I don't know how old the village is. I only know that the land deed says 428 acres. Zhuangtou is a distant relative of Qingxian. He heard that there were more than 30 tenants in total and more than 20 long-term workers. His family didn't come much before the crisis, and even fewer after the crisis. Therefore, this house has been disrepaired for so long, and I couldn't live in the first time I came."

While calling Han Xiufeng to eat vegetables, Wang Naizeng explained: "After you left, you have more and more things. You really can't let go of the bookshop, and you are worried about putting them elsewhere. Qingxian suggested sending them all here. Later, thinking that you could not have a place outside the city, you built the house, and raised more than a dozen horses and nine mules here, and prepared six large carts."

Han Xiufeng didn't expect that they had grown bigger and bigger in the past two years, so he calmly built a "nest" outside the city. He couldn't help but ask with a smile: "Are the people in the village reliable?"

"Reliable. Those tenants and long-term workers are either servants of Qingxian's family, or those who know the roots and the bottom line." Wang Naiteng thought for a while and smiled, "Mr. Wen was worried that strangers would always come in and out, which would make the nearby people and even the magistrate of Wanping suspicious. Not only did he donate a seventh-grade top belt for the village, but he also asked the village to come forward to hold a small group training, and he led the young and strong training in the village every now and then."

"Is it appropriate to hold a group training here?" Han Xiufeng asked.

"What's wrong with it? It's different now than before, and it's done everywhere."

"I mean this is the village of Qingxian's family after all. If someone with ulterior motives is stabbed to the emperor, what would the emperor think?"

Wang Naizeng reacted: "We have thought about this too. Later, I saw that the emperor had given up on several old ministers who were convicted and imprisoned, so I felt that nothing should be wrong."

"Which old ministers?"

"The emperor first released the crime of the Grand Secretary of the Taiwan Army, former governor of Zhili, and handed over to the Governor of Zhili, Gui Liang, and sent the commission to use it. Then he rewarded the sixth-rank captain of the Ner's rank. A few days ago, Liansai Shang Abdu released him and ordered him to go to Chahar to train Mongolian soldiers."

Han Xiufeng had never seen Sai Shanga or Narr's Scripture, but he had read many military books compiled by Narr's Scripture as the governor of Zhili, and even practiced military service for several years using the "Stephen of Military Skills" compiled by Narr's Scripture. He thought that the reason for the crime of Qiying's family was different from that of Sai Shanga, Narr's Scripture. Once a foreigner had a problem, the emperor would naturally think of Qiying and said solemnly: "I think it's better to be cautious in this matter, and you can't implicate Qingxian because of this matter."

How could Wang Naizeng not know what Han Xiufeng was worried about? He pondered: "What the lord said is, why don't you ask Ji Lu to buy this farm after you go back. As long as you buy it, it will have nothing to do with the Qingxian family."

"I bought it, Brother Yunqing, this is a farm, not a house, does the church have so much money? Even if there is, it is still using the Qingxian family's money to buy the Qingxian family's farm. What's the difference between forcing and robbing?"

"I don't know that the money in the public account has been almost done. Now I use the money from Ling Mei to return it from Shanghai, a total of 50,000 taels, which is enough for a while."

"The money Yu'er remitted is still 50,000 taels per exchange!" Han Xiufeng was shocked.

Wang Naizeng explained with a smile: "To be precise, it is Lijin from Shanghai. Lord Han, Zhou Xingyuan, you must remember that after Xiang Shuai died in his country, his job of setting up a card and drawing a card was targeted by others..."

After understanding the whole story, Han Xiufeng finally breathed a sigh of relief. He thought about it and couldn't help but smile: "Hand in and cover up the criminals, embezzle the gold, and swallow it for 50,000 taels at one time. This girl is too brave!"

"This is called a brother who has a good brother must have a sister, or it is better than a blue! Fortunately, she is, otherwise we will all have to drink the northwest wind."

"What does it mean that my brother must have a sister? It's like I've covered up the criminals and embezzled Lijin."

"You have never covered up the criminals, but just reported the news to the 'selling chicken'."

"I had no choice but to do it!"

"Isn't that the same thing about Ling Mei? She has to do it."

"What a last resort? Yu'er has become like this now. You Wang Yunqing is extremely worthy of your contribution!" Han Xiufeng glared at him and stood up and said, "I won't eat anymore. Let's take a look at the documents you brought first, and then talk about them after reading them."

"Okay, I'll let them carry in."

...

Xiao Shandong and a servant brought in a whole box of official documents. Han Xiufeng opened the box and took it out one by one and read it at night.

Wang Naizeng didn't want to disturb him, so he simply asked Xiaoshandong to stay here to serve him, and then went to the front hall to talk to Liu Shanyang.

Han Xiufeng looked at all and saw it very quickly. He finished it all in less than half an hour, and asked Xiaoshandong to invite Wang Naiteng over.

Wang Naiteng originally thought Han Xiufeng was going to discuss with him where to go to "Houyitang" in the future, but as soon as he entered the door, he saw Han Xiufeng with a gloomy face, "Brother Yunqing, how did you, the military commander?"

"Mr. Han, where do you start?"

"Why start, I think the emperor doesn't like the 'Houyi Hall' and doesn't want to see Bochuan again. You Wang Yunqing makes a great contribution!"

"I...I didn't do anything!" Wang Naizeng said with a bitter face.

Han Xiufeng became more and more depressed as he thought about it. He pointed to the official document on the table and said, "The reason why I asked you to assist Brother Bochuan back then was not because Bochuan didn't know how to inquire about how to organize and verify the feelings of the barbarians, but because Brother Bochuan was not good at understanding the intention of the saints and did not understand the twists and turns in the officialdom. You are so good, after becoming the head of the Martial Arts Institute, he was all focused on helping with the church affairs, but he forgot that there were many things more important than inquiring about the feelings of the barbarians!"

Wang Naizeng was really confused by the authorities and asked sadly: "What's more important? Please tell me clearly."

"Even if you don't have all these memorials drafted by you, you should have read them all. What did you write? Either Ye Mingchen talked lies with his eyes open, or Ying Fo and others were planning to do whatever he wanted. He only knew that the situation was urgent, but there was no complete solution, and he didn't even have a solution to the urgent problem!"

Han Xiufeng took a deep breath and continued, "I did a lot of things, but that's the thing? I disassembled the steam engine that I had been working hard, but after I had disassembled it, I couldn't even install it after I disassembled it. I could only disassemble eight pieces and sent it here. A pile of scrap copper and iron. What's the use of imitating new foreign guns? The same is true for the Japanese translation and the translation of the foreigners' newspapers and books of customs and customs. Is it really useful for astronomy, geography and arithmetic, and I haven't translated a single one.

On the contrary, Ye Mingchen, who was scolded by you every day, not only defeated more than 200,000 "Hongshen" who besieged Guangzhou City, seized so many long-haired bandits, saved Guangdong and Guangxi, but also had spared their efforts to help Liangjiang and Huguang to quell the rebellion. If I were the emperor, I would still be promoted to Ye Mingchen's official position, nor would I like the "Houyi Hall" and I would not be willing to summon Bochuan again!"

Wang Naizeng suddenly reacted and said helplessly: "Mr. Han, Naizeng has disappointed you, but Naizeng really racked his brains and couldn't come up with a complete solution."

"Even if you can't think of it, you can't say it to death when you submit a memorial!"

Han Xiufeng pointed to the official document on the table and said with a grudge: "Whether it is war or harmony, you must have an idea, even if it is ambiguous. You are good, just knowing that the emperor will cause trouble and the Western barbarians will cause trouble, but they don't know how to deal with it. They only know that things are very difficult and troublesome, but they don't know how to solve the troubles. The emperor will naturally not be happy."

"..." Wang Naizeng was speechless because, as Han Xiufeng said, they have always reported worries to the emperor in the past two years, but never thought of a way to help the emperor share his worries.

"I blame me for saying that, I blame me for not explaining it to you clearly at that time." Han Xiufeng sighed and stood up and said, "Fortunately, the emperor just doesn't want to see Bochuan again, so he did not take his anger on Bochuan. There is still room for maneuver."

"I dare to ask, how can I go back?"

"If you guess correctly, the emperor will most likely ask me to continue to be the shopkeeper of the 'Houyi Hall'. As for Bochuan, you should have another appointment. Before I go back to the bookstore, you have to do two things quickly. One is to ask Ji Lu to come forward and quickly buy the farm, and give as much as you should, so that Qingxian cannons cannons cannons should not be allowed to suffer any further. The other is to quickly order Shanghai, Xiangshan and Xin'an and other sub-colons to think of ways to see if you can buy foreign cannons from the American foreign company."

"What are you doing when buying foreign cannons?"

"Prepare for war! England has started fighting with us, and France also wants to make trouble with Xilin's lesson plan. We can't be without any preparation."

"Mr. Han, American foreign merchants may not necessarily sell it. Even if they are willing to sell it, just the little money we have enough to buy a few foreign cannons?"

"It's not that we buy it ourselves, but for Chonghou!" Han Xiufeng thought about it, and then clenched his fists and said, "As long as he can buy it, even if Chonghou can't afford so much money, Zhili Governor Gui Liang will find a way to raise the silver. In short, Guangdong is too far away and we are beyond our reach, but there must be no trouble in the capital, let alone mistakes. We can try our best to ensure the capital."
