At this time, a young man with a lofty spirit was sighing by the Huangpu River.

His name is Wei Yungong, and behind him is the huge dock of the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau, but the dock is empty, only a few iron armor ships are parked, and some are even in an unfinished and abandoned state.

Since Mr. Xu Shou, he has experienced the defeat of the First Sino-Japanese War.

Today's Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau is no longer chasing "battleships and heavy artillery" in terms of development focus.

As the largest military base in China and even in East Asia, it is currently focusing its main efforts on copying foreign guns and artillery and other land munitions.

But people of insight feel that it is a pity to give up the shipping industry.

Therefore, in February this year, when Zhang Zhidong asked the Qing court to move many businesses inland, he also approached this young man and proposed that he would be supported to take up the post of general office, and hoped that he could revive the glory of Jiangnan shipbuilding.

Wei Yungong was very excited about this.

When he happily accepted the order and came here, he found that the scene was so unbearable.

"Uncle." A young man hurriedly walked over: "Although it is already spring, Jiang Feng is biting, please ask my uncle to go back to the city first." ”

This young man looks like he is in his twenties, and Wei Yungong is only thirty and three this year.

The difference between the two is ten years old, but they are two generations, and they are more like brothers than uncles and nephews.

Wei Yungong pointed to the mess in front of him and said to him: "Wen Tao, what Master Zhang gave me is more than a thousand catties." ”

Wei Wentao said with a smile: "That's also because of your outstanding ability, uncle, otherwise why is there Liu Kun and then Zhang Zhidong, and they all think that only you can solve this matter." ”

Wei Wentao's words are not casual compliments.

Wei Yungong, a native of Hunan, is indeed a personal masterpiece.

In the middle of 91, he was promoted to the cabinet secretary, and was immediately directly sponsored by Liu Kun, the then governor of Liangjiang, to enter the special economic department.

In addition, he also worked as an English translator for the "Shi Ji Bao" co-founded by Liang Qichao and Wang Kangnian.

Now he is valued by the famous Xiangshuai and will be the general office of the Jiangnan General Administration.

You know, he's only thirty-three years old.

But Wei Yungong's face was full of helplessness at the moment, and he and his nephew said truthfully: "You look down on your uncle, in fact, I am at a loss now." ”

"There is always a head in a thousand things, and my uncle doesn't have to worry. I believe there will always be a turning point. Wei Wentao tried to comfort him.

The uncle and nephew chatted about things and slowly walked back.

Wei Yungong, who was worried, didn't notice that on the passenger ship from northern Jiangsu in the distance, a young man was looking at this intently.

"Second Young Master, what are you looking at?" Zhou Yuer squeezed to Han Huaiyi's side and asked.

This girl's little head is almost on the young master's shoulder, and she doesn't know it.

Seeing this, Xiangsheng on the side pulled Ah Bao, tiptoed out of the room and closed the door for them.

Hearing the sound behind them, Han Huaiyi and Yu'er couldn't help but turn around.

Because the distance was too close, the fish's head turned faster, and Han Huaiyi's lips accidentally touched the fish's cheek.

The fish screamed, and then jumped away in a hurry, saying, "Second young master, you are bad!" ”

"I feel like I'm happy to touch you, but I didn't mean to." Han Huaiyi was also speechless, and the main thing he was even more speechless about was that Xiangsheng and them were doing this kind of thing, which was obscene or not.

Zhou Yu'er wiped her face desperately with a red face, and said with a disgusted look: "I ignore you." ”

Han Huaiyi had no choice but to say: "Okay, okay, you should be bitten by a dog, okay, I asked you to warm the bed, you don't come, I look at the scenery, you come over, why do you say that you are so hypocritical." ”

"Where am I small!" The fish asked.

Han Huaiyi's eyes swept over her chest, and he continued to look at the few black shadows in the distant dock.

The fish was suddenly angry, but what could she do?

Looking at the dock over there, Han Huaiyi pondered in his heart, there are several places where Western-style sports talents are concentrated, such as the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau, which is one of them, and the high-level officials here have more or less broad horizons and know English, and Ma Dangman's goods may not play any role here.

Gao Yuming suddenly knocked on the door, and after coming in, he said, "The fish is here with the young master, why are you unhappy, is the young master bullying you again." ”

"Nope." Zhou Yu'er shook her head hurriedly, did she tell Gao Yuming that the young master thought I was small-breasted, but Han Huaiyi said, "It's not normal for me to tease her." ”

Then he asked, "Is there something wrong with Mr. Gao?" ”

"It's okay, I'm just here to play chess with the young master."

Han Huaiyi was bored anyway, so he put down the chess cloth with him and then fought behind the front cannon of the rook flat horse.

The fish crowded next to Han Huaiyi and looked curiously.

Gao Yuming's chess skills are skillful, and he killed Han Huaiyi in three strokes and five divided by two.

After three consecutive handfuls, Han Huaiyi, who was depressed after losing, suddenly held back a sentence: "Mr. Gao, are you learning from the nameless old man to Zuo Xiang, but the opposite is true, which means that I will be more stable when I go to Shanghai to do things?" ”

In the folk tale, Zuo Zongtang met an old man when he went to recover Xinjiang, and when the two played against each other, Zuo Zongtang killed all sides.

After his victory, the class teacher returned to the court, and met the old man again, but he cleaned up Zuo Zongtang.

The so-called first defeat to him was for the sake of his strong will, and later abusing him was to dispel his conceit.

In short, it's quite reasonable to be full of food and support people.

Han Huaiyi said so.

Gao Yuming was stunned for a moment and then laughed: "The second young master still knows this story? But I'm just looking for the young master to pass the time. ”

"Then I'm not happy to bully you."

Han Huaiyi said and took out rogue means to stir up the chess pieces, and the fish laughed on the side when he saw him playing treasure again.

In this way, the group grinned and finally arrived at the 16th Shop Pier again at nightfall.

When Han Huaiyi changed into a suit in the cabin and walked out, he was the same Mr. Han who returned from overseas again.

The fish saw the young master's dress, and his eyes were full of stars.

Before a few rickshaws arrived at the Han family's house, it aroused the curiosity of the neighbors at the door.

The last time I witnessed Han Huaiyi and the foreigners cleaning up Zhang Dawen, they still remember the appearance of the foreigner police inspector who was furious for Mr. Han after he personally arrived at the scene.

It is said that when Han Huaizhong was bullied at that time, they were the ones who eagerly gossiped and even gloated.

But they have now determined that the people in the Han family's mansion can't be provoked.

"Mr. Han is back."

"Oh, it's Mr. Han, Mr. Han is old-fashioned."

"Yes, yes, Mr. Han is young, decent and rich."

When they said hello, the fish lay on the side of the small cart parked in the garden, and could not move.

Han Huaiyi turned around and patted her, and asked, "Do you want to sit?" ”

"Yes!" The fish said expectantly.

OK, Han Huaiyi immediately opened the trunk without virtue and smoke, and Zhou Yu'er was stupid and ready to drill into it.

Fortunately, at this moment, a uniformed and ugly-looking patrolman rushed over and shouted: "Oh, Mr. Han, are you really back?" ”
