At the gate of the Shen family's mansion, Li Weiguo came to visit again with a nervous mood.

Unlike usual, this time, Chen Wansan did not turn Li Weiguo out again, but instead invited him into the door.

For Li Weiguo, this was a huge progress, indicating that Chen Wansan's cold ice heart that had not changed for thousands of years had finally melted a corner.

In the eyes of outsiders, Li Weiguo, the governor of Liangjiang and a senior official of the court, actually had to look at the faces of the common people among Chen Wansanyi, which made people laugh.

But Li Weiguo never fears words when doing things. He was able to tolerate being kicked out by his father-in-law back then, but now the situation is much better than that time.

"Son-in-law, please!"

The Shenfu family member smiled and helped Li Weiguo lead the way. Li Weiguo immediately took out a hundred-yuan RMB bill and handed it to the other party.

"There are too many of these, and the villain dare not accept them!"

The servants of the Chen Mansion were shocked. They were so happy that they could get a one-yuan RMB. Now that a hundred-yuan RMB bill was placed in front of him, he was almost suffocated with excitement.

"Take it for you! I'm very happy to call me a son-in-law, I'm very proud of you!"

Li Weiguo smiled. He treated Chen Ziyan sincerely, so he loved the house and could tolerate all kinds of disrespect from his father-in-law, and was naturally generous to the people of the Chen Mansion.

"Thank you, my son-in-law!" The servant trembled and took the 100 yuan, carefully put it on, and then said to Li Weiguo: "Don't worry, my son-in-law, my son-in-law has changed his mind!"

Li Weiguo nodded. Since Chen Wansan allowed him to enter the Shen family's gate, he must have changed his mind.

"But I know why the old man suddenly changed his mind?"

"this"

"What? Could it be that you have something to hide from me?"

"The villain dares not!"

The servant just collected 100 yuan from Li Weiguo, which is equivalent to five years of wages. How dare he hide it from Li Weiguo? He immediately explained: "I don't hide it from my son-in-law, the master changed his mind. It was because your parents came to my house in person a few days ago and made a special trip to apologize to my master. Seeing that your parents sincerely apologize, the master finally forgives them."

"So that's the case! No wonder!"

Li Weiguo was startled and sighed immediately. In the end, his parents bowed their heads and admitted their mistakes. You should know that Li’s father and mother are also people who want face. In addition, their son Li Weiguo has a promising future and his official position is getting bigger and bigger. Now, as the governor of Liangjiang, their parents are even more proud of their face issues.

Now that Li’s father and mother are willing to come to the door to apologize in person, it’s not that they don’t want face, but for their son.

"I feel sorry for parents in the world!"

Li Weiguo felt aroused in his heart and said with emotion.

"What my son-in-law said is that my parents are pitiful. My master has been open-minded over the years. For the sake of the lifelong happiness of the lady, my master did not make things difficult for Mr. Li and Mrs. Li."

Li Weiguo nodded. He could accept the result, otherwise if his parents were wronged, he would be sorry.

In the living room, Li Weiguo met Chen Wansan.

Compared with the previous few years, Chen Wansan is obviously much older and has a lot of white hair.

"Son-in-law greets my father-in-law!" Li Weiguo honestly gave the elders' greetings and secretly glanced at Chen Wansan. Seeing that he had no intention of getting angry, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and was delighted. Sure enough, there was a way.

Chen Wansan looked at Li Weiguo, and after a long time, he asked Li Weiguo to sit down, and asked, "Tell me honestly. Have you and Zi Yan had sex?"

Li Weiguo smiled bitterly and said, "I have never had sex."

Chen Wansan immediately slapped the table and shouted angrily: "Bastard! Since he has already adopted Zi Yan as his concubine, why don't he have sex with her and let my daughter be a widow, what will you have to worry about?"

This old man is really unreasonable!

Li Weiguo grinded his teeth. But he had to answer patiently: "I will not hide it from my father-in-law. Although my son-in-law reported to the court to enthrone Zi Yan as his concubine, you never agree! Zi Yan is also a filial daughter. If you don't attend her wedding, Zi Yan will definitely be sad. My son-in-law really hopes that Zi Yan will marry me happily and give her a legitimate wedding. Before the official marriage, the son-in-law dares not ruin the reputation of Zi Yan and his father-in-law."

After listening to Li Weiguo's explanation, Chen Wansan's face suddenly improved a lot, and he nodded and said, "You are still honest! It's just that I, Chen Wansan, only such a daughter, is fine if you cheated, but I want to be your little wife, which is so angering to death!"

Li Weiguo hurriedly defended: "Don't worry, father-in-law, the son-in-law never regards Zi Yan as his little wife. Whether it is Shanxiang or Zi Yan, they are both good wives in the son-in-law's heart, and there is no difference!"

Chen Wansan snorted coldly: "Where is that Su Yuniang (Su Sanniang)?"

Li Weiguo explained: "The same is true for Yu Niang. The three of their daughters are all the wifes, and they are all my women of Li Weiguo, regardless of their identities!"

Chen Wansan said anxiously: "I can ignore Fu Shanxiang's affairs! But how can Su Yuniang compare with my daughter Zi Yan? I can accept that Fu Shanxiang and Zi Yan are both the wife, but Su Yuniang cannot do it, she can only be a concubine!"

Li Weiguo frowned and said seriously: "My father-in-law, I still say the same thing. Shanxiang, Zi Yan and Yu Niang are both regular wives, regardless of size, I treat them equally. Shanxiang and Zi Yan are sincere to me. Isn't it the same for Yu Huatai? If she hadn't sacrificed her life to save me in the battle, Shanxiang and Zi Yan would have become widows now!"

Chen Wansan snorted coldly and whispered in a low voice: It would be just right if you really died back then!

Li Weiguo had a sharp ear and when he heard it, he rolled his eyes in anger.

One old and one young, neither of them gave in, and the atmosphere continued to stalemate again.

At this time, the butler, who saw that the situation was not good, whispered in Shen Wansan's ear: "Master, our lady is twenty years old this year. You can't bear to let the lady be a living widow again. I heard that Fu Shanxiang is pregnant, and if you drag it like this, the lady will have no status in her husband's family in the future."

Chen Wansan suddenly felt excited. This was the key reason for his surrender. When he thought that Fu Shanxiang was pregnant and his daughter had not yet completed her family, this was delaying her daughter's happiness. If she delayed her, she would really ruin her daughter's life.

"Forget it, I owe you what I did in my previous life! Go back and choose a day to marry Zi Yan!"

Chen Wansan compromised, as if he was a little older again.

Li Weiguo asked, "Will you go, then father-in-law?"

"Fart! My daughter is married, how can I not go?" Chen Wansan cursed immediately.

"Don't calm down!" Li Weiguo smiled bitterly, this was just asking for scolding. But he was thinking in his heart, "Hmph. But this time, after getting married with Zi Yan, you old man will dare to wink me again, but I won't agree."

After leaving Chen Mansion happily, Li Weiguo went back to Yuyuan directly and told the matter to his parents and three wives.

My parents had known this result for a long time, so they were not surprised.

As the great concubine, Fu Shanxiang is now pregnant with Liujia and has already slept with Li Weiguo. He has always felt guilty because he cannot serve her husband by his side, so he is the most active person to match Li Weiguo and Chen Ziyan to make a living.

Of course, Fu Shanxiang also persuaded Su Sanniang, but Su Sanniang was always lukewarm and didn't know what to think about.

When Chen Ziyan learned that her father had finally agreed, she cried with joy.

"Okay. Why are you crying? You should be happy!"

Li Weiguo comforted Chen Ziyan and finally got married with his second wife. It has been waiting for five or six years. It is really not easy.

Chen Ziyan stopped crying and said with a smile: "Yes, it's time to be happy! My father finally agreed, so that Ziyan can marry her husband with peace of mind. Thank you, husband, for waiting for Ziyan for so long!"

Li Weiguo smiled slightly and said proudly: "This is nothing. For me, it is the most important thing that Zi Yan marrys me without regrets!"

Chen Ziyan immediately smiled sweetly and said softly: "Husband, you are so nice!"

Li Weiguo and Shen Ziyan were together, making everyone around him become light bulbs.

Soon someone couldn't stand it and said, "Okay, you two want to go back to the house, what's the etiquette of public?"

When he heard this voice, it was Su Sanniang's. Li Weiguo was immediately happy and turned to Su Sanniang and said, "Yu Niang is jealous, it doesn't matter, don't worry! After the wedding is done by husband and Zi Yan, I will do it!"

Su Sanniang suddenly shyly and angry. She glared at Li Weiguo fiercely.

However, Li Weiguo could see that Su Sanniang was jealous because her eyes were completely charming.

The wedding day between Li Weiguo and Chen Ziyan was set and will be held on the third day of next month, and will be carried out according to the standard three books and six recruitment procedures.

Chen Ziyan finally got her Shen family and was going back to get married. During this period, Li Weiguo could not see her again until the day of marriage.

After waiting for this day for five or six years, Li Weiguo suddenly felt restless.

For Li Weiguo, this was not the first time he got married. He married Fu Shanxiang as early as the age of eight. However, he had no impression of that time. This time it was Li Weiguo's first time in the true sense, so he was nervous.

In later generations, this is called premarital agitation, but Li Weiguo quickly found a solution.

The China ASUSSR Secret Service recently received good news, which made Li Weiguo excited and even forgot about his delicate wife.

The ASUSSR Special Agents' Office has gained something from various intelligence stations in Europe and the United States. They were ordered by Li Weiguo to find ways to hire professional scientists from all walks of life in Europe and the United States to come to Shanghai. However, most Europeans and Americans disdained and refused to invite them. So they were kidnapped by the ASUSSR Special Agents' Office and secretly escorted back to Shanghai.

At the beginning, these European and American experts and scientists were very angry and refused to do things for Li Weiguo. But soon they tasted the bitter fruit and sweetness. The bitter fruit was starving, beating, and torture. Some experts and scientists chose to surrender and began to do things for Li Weiguo. Some experts and scientists did not care about who they did for. They were pure scientific researchers and only cared about scientific research results and scientific research conditions. Li Weiguo could do this. He gave these scientific researchers very generous treatment and scientific research conditions, and spared no expense to build laboratories for them and provided experimental funds. In the end, some people were very rigid. They thought Li Weiguo needed them so they were not afraid, but soon they were punished and they would be detained in a special prison forever. Li Weiguo had time to waste with them.

Li Weiguo specially established the Academy of Sciences to centrally manage these European and American scientists, and focus on some professional scientific experiments with strong practicality.

What made Li Weiguo the most happy was that he discovered three ancestors of the telegraph industry, namely British scientist Cook, Wheatstone and American scientist Morse.

Among them, Cook made an electromagnetic telegraph in 1836 and applied for the first telegraph patent the following year. Wheatstone was Cook's collaborator.

The most amazing thing is Morse. He developed a prototype of the electromagnetic telegraph in 1835. Later, according to the current, two signals of electric sparks and no electric sparks appear when the current is turned on and off. Three years later, he invented the "Morse code" composed of points and strokes. Later, Morse received strong support from Li Weiguo in Shanghai, and with sufficient funds, he quickly improved the high-speed automatic transceiver.

On June 3, 1859, Li Weiguo set up a newspaper transmitter in Shanghai. The high-speed automatic transceiver designed by Morse was used for the first time. This transceiver has a special hole drilling machine. First, the circular hole corresponding to the telegram characters were chiseled on the paper tape, and then the hole drilling paper tape was sent on the Morse automatic transmitter. The receipt bureau used a corrugated reporter to record a dot-slot code on the paper tape. The notification rate was about 20 times faster than that of manual transmission from Europe and the United States.

At this moment, the telegraph industry in Europe and the United States has just emerged. As the three originators of the telegraph industry in Europe and the United States, Li Weiguo has brought Shanghai to Shanghai, which has enabled Shanghai's telegraph industry to be ahead of Europe and the United States and to be in a leading position.

However, Li Weiguo was not complacent. At this time, European and American countries had already realized the convenience, speed and huge military uses of telegraphs. All European and American powers began to vigorously build the telegraph industry, so Li Weiguo was not willing to lag behind and invested huge amounts of money to build a telegraph system.

The General Administration of Telegraph is located in Shanghai. Telegraph branches will be set up in Jiangnan Province and Zhejiang Province's capital cities and prefectures. Telegraph lines will be laid in all the Shanghai Army's garrisons and fortresses, and it is the most preferred construction project.

According to Li Weiguo's requirements, military priority is given. Before the British and French coalition forces arrived in China, the military's telegraph lines must be set up, and the training of telegraphers and receivers was put on the agenda, and the telegraph office was also run before the enemy arrived.

Once the Telegram Bureau is running, it will undoubtedly be a huge help to the intelligence command of the Shanghai army. At that time, Li Weiguo will be in charge of Shanghai and will quickly know the first time news from all over the country. In military intelligence, it will determine the victory or defeat of the war if it is almost a second. With the telegram, Li Weiguo will be more confident in dealing with the invasion of the British and French coalition forces.

However, it was not easy to set up telegraph lines in this era. Fortunately, Li Weiguo is not short of money. Recently, the funds he robbed from Shanyang County were 20 million taels of silver, which just made up for this financial hole.
Chapter completed!
