Eat as much as you want.

Before he has enough ability, enough right to speak, and changes the general trend, Li Yuanqing will not find himself unhappy.

What he needs to do more now is what he can grasp.

The deep sea under the winter sunset is extremely magnificent, and the craggy waves interweave the sea and the sky into a line, and the whole world seems to be shrouded in a sacred red halo.

Facing the cold sea breeze on the bow of the boat and feeling the most familiar wet and salty taste mixed in the sea breeze, Li Yuanqing's mind instantly broadened.

After all, Houjin is a dynasty with regulations and etiquette!

After decades of desperate work by the old slave, the Ming Dynasty almost spent the whole country's strength, and in a few years, it could not be easily taken down, not to mention, he Li Yuanqing was in Liaodi, and it was only a few years?

Rice, always have to eat one bite at a time, how can you eat a big fat man in one bite?

For the future, Li Yuanqing has enough patience!

…………

Three days later, the fleet returned to Changsheng Island.

The people on the island had long been aware of the news of the great victory in Liaoxi, and they gathered on the pier to celebrate the triumphant return of Li Yuanqing and his sons.

Li Yuanqing was already very familiar with this kind of celebration ceremony, and he would not let go of this good opportunity to show his authority and gather people's hearts.

It's just that he has arrived at the dock smoothly since noon, but when Li Yuanqing returned to his official hall, it was almost past midnight, almost nine o'clock in the evening, and he had time to eat dinner.

However, Rao is mind is very tired, but Li Yuanqing's mood is excellent.

After more than five years of hard work, all the affairs of Changsheng Island have been on track, especially the hearts of the people, which are firmly in the hands of Li Yuanqing.

The so-called 'thick accumulation and thin hair'.

After such a long period of accumulation, Li Yuanqing has been able to, within a controllable range, 'small outbreak' once.

Of course, due to the limitations of various reasons, this location obviously cannot be Daming.

In the official hall, it is as warm as spring.

Li Yuanqing had just started to be served by Zhang Yunniang and Qu Minqiu for dinner, and Shang Lao Liu and Steward Ma, two 'unflattering', came up again.

Hearing the report from the soldiers outside that the two people asked to see him, Li Yuanqing couldn't help but shake his head and laughed: "These two masters, but they can't let me live in peace for a while." ”

Zhang Yunniang smiled and helped Li Yuanqing open a quail egg, put it on Li Yuanqing's plate, and said with a smile: "Brother, you have been gone for so long, there must be a lot of government affairs on the island, and you must also be considerate of Brother Shang and Steward Ma." ”

Qu Minqiu also smiled: "If Brother Shang and Steward Ma don't come tonight, I'm afraid someone will not be able to sleep." ”

"Huh?"

Li Yuanqing was putting the delicate quail eggs in his mouth, and he had just swallowed halfway through it, when he suddenly heard Qu Minqiu's words, he couldn't help choking all of a sudden, coughing again and again, and tears poured out.

Qu Minqiu was also taken aback, and hurriedly poured a glass of wine for Li Yuanqing, and served Li Yuanqing to drink it, and Li Yuanqing felt much better.

The big hand couldn't help but slap Qu Minqiu's buttocks~ fiercely, "You little girl, do you want to murder your husband?" ”

Qu Minqiu screamed coquettishly, and couldn't help but protect the vital part of the pain with both hands, and wanted to refute it, but he also knew that he seemed to be at a loss, so he glanced at Li Yuanqing lightly.

Zhang Yunniang hurriedly smiled and said, "Minqiu, my brother just came back." Don't make a fuss. Let's see Brother Shang and Steward Ma first. ”

Li Yuanqing couldn't help but sigh: "Minqiu, have you seen it?" That's the difference! You can have Yun Niang three points sensible, how much worry can I save. ”

Qu Minqiu glanced at Li Yuanqing coquettishly, and poured Li Yuanqing a glass of wine delicately: "Master, the little woman knows that she is wrong." Come, little girl, toast you. ”

Comfortably drank Qu Minqiu's toast, Li Yuanqing's chest and abdomen couldn't help but start to heat up a little.

Wives and concubines.

In the end, even if the beautiful concubine is charming, it still can't compare to the style of the most familiar wife.

After a few words of frolicking, Li Yuanqing smiled and said to the soldiers outside: "Please come in." ”

"Yes!"

After a while, Shang Lao Liu and Steward Ma hurriedly walked in and saluted Li Yuanqing with a smile.

Later, there was a well-known magazine of the American imperialists, which once conducted a survey that lasted for several decades, and they finally came to the conclusion that 'people are hypocritical animals'.

Qu Minqiu's words were not wrong.

Shang Lao Liu and Steward Ma can come tonight, even if Li Yuanqing will be a little tired, but the mood is extremely happy.

But ~~, if they don't come, they can't let Li Yuanqing control the movement on the island for the first time, then~~, Li Yuanqing will have a big move stained with blood.

"Huh. Brother Shang, Steward Ma, you just can't let me live in peace for a while! Come on, give the two stewards a seat! ”

The maid who served next to her was busy moving two small soft stools for Shang Lao Liu and Steward Ma.

Shang Lao Liu sat down with a smile, "Yuanqing, you can't blame me and Lao Ma for this!" Since you came back at noon, Lao Ma and I have been waiting. But until now, this has been the end of the effort, isn't it? ”

Steward Ma also smiled: "General, you have a lot of opportunities, but you must take care of your body!" With you, the people of our island have hope! ”

Li Yuanqing laughed, "It's all my own family, so I don't have to be so polite." Yun Niang, serve tea to the two stewards. ”

"Hmm." Zhang Yunniang smiled and personally served tea to Shang Lao Liu and Steward Ma.

Both of them were a little flattered and hurriedly returned the salute respectfully.

Li Yuanqing said with a smile: "Brother Shang, Steward Ma, how is the situation on the island recently?" ”

Shang Lao Liu took a sip of fragrant tea and said with a smile: "Yuanqing, in the recent period on the island, all affairs have been quite stable. Most importantly, there are two things. The first is that spring is about to begin, and this year's spring ploughing is about to begin. This matter is all in charge of Lao Ma, and let Lao Ma report it later. These two things are that Yang Xiaochuan's fleet is already almost on Phi Island, and in a few days, it should be able to reach the island. Yuanqing, Yang Xiaochuan, this kid, this time has brought us a lot of surprises! ”

"Oh?"

Li Yuanqing smiled and took a sip of wine: "This kid has made a fortune?" ”

Shang Lao Liu smiled, and his eyes showed an indescribable excitement: "Yuanqing, Yang Xiaochuan, what I brought back this time is more than one million taels of cash alone!" With this money, we don't have to break our fingers to live a lot of affairs this year! ”

Steward Ma also smiled on the side: "General, in the past, everyone was a little reluctant to talk about the sea trade, but this time, Yang Xiaochuan and they haven't come back yet, and these mansions on the island can't sit still." It is estimated that early tomorrow morning, it is estimated that the general will be blocked in the door! ”

Li Yuanqing was also a little speechless.

With historical experience, he has long known that sea trade is definitely the most lucrative and violent trade in the world at this time, and there is not even one of them.

But Li Yuanqing still didn't expect that Yang Xiaochuan would earn so much silver in more than a year, which is really ......

"Hey, hey. Not bad. This kid finally didn't disappoint me. Wait for him to come back, wait for him to reward him with a few jars of good wine to drink! ”

Li Yuanqing laughed, "By the way, is there a letter from this guy?" When exactly will I be able to return? ”

Shang Lao Liu smiled: "It's probably only in these three or two days!" By the way, Yuan Qing, there is one more thing, I almost forgot. This brain. ”

As he spoke, Shang Lao Liu hurriedly took out a battle report from his arms and handed it to Li Yuanqing, "Yuanqing, this is the battle report that Phi Dao just sent this afternoon, Mao Shuai's offensive in Liaodong at the beginning of the year was not bad. ”

Li Yuanqing put down the chopsticks in his hand, unfolded the battle report, and read it carefully, and for a moment, his brows couldn't help frowning tightly.

There was not much difference from the previous plan, and when the main force of the Later Jin Army approached Liaoxi, Mao Wenlong also sent troops from Phi Dao, entered Kuandian again, and inserted it into the hinterland of Laozhai.

What is different from history is that with Li Yuanqing's strong firearms support, coupled with last year's experience, this year, Mao Wenlong almost broke through the Tartar defense line around Kuandian.

However, the Houjin army was also prepared, leaving more than 10,000 elite soldiers in Laozhai, Mao Wenlong besieged Laozhai for seven or eight days, losing three or four thousand people, but he was never able to go down.

At this time, the Houjin army in western Liaoning had already withdrawn, and even if Mao Wenlong was unwilling, he could only take a step back temporarily, end the offensive at the beginning of the year, and retreat to Phi Dao.

Although Mao Wenlong's battle report is very smooth, but between the lines, it is revealed that he is very dissatisfied with the offensive, very unwilling, at the end, he also reminded Li Yuanqing that he hopes that this year, he can launch a larger-scale offensive, take Laozhai, and even ~, besiege Shenyang.

Regarding Mao Wenlong's suggestion, Li Yuanqing is really a little uncomfortable......

To a certain extent, Li Yuanqing very much wants to turn it into reality and completely end the troubles of Houjin, but ~~, in terms of specific actions, Li Yuanqing understands that even if there will be a lot of gains in this battle, it is still very unrealistic to uproot Houjin.

But since Mao Wenlong raised this matter, Li Yuanqing categorically refused, but it was difficult to do it.

After a while, Li Yuanqing slowly exhaled a breath of turbidity, it seems that before going to sea, he must go to Phi Island in person and have a good talk with Mao Wenlong!

Seeing that Li Yuanqing was silent for a long time, Shang Lao Liu and Steward Ma didn't dare to say much, and sat respectfully on the side, waiting for Li Yuanqing's thoughts.

After a moment, Li Yuanqing suddenly smiled: "Mao Shuai can have such ambitions, it is really admirable!" Brother Shang, you will reply to Phi Dao tonight, in the near future, if Mao Shuai is free, I will go to Phi Dao in person to meet Mao Shuai! ”

Shang Lao Liu hurriedly nodded and wrote down the matter.

"That's right."

Li Yuanqing said again: "Brother Shang, Steward Ma, these boatmen and shipwrights who came to the island this time, you must not neglect their daily lives. Well...... Let's put them in the idle barracks of the 1st 1,000 Corps first. Near the docks, pick up some good land for them to build a mansion. Well, you can do it now. You can ask them in detail about their wishes, and as long as they are about the same, we will try our best to meet them. ”

Although Shang Lao Liu didn't understand the details, Li Yuanqing spoke, so he had to nod hurriedly, thinking in his heart that he wanted to explore these things in detail as soon as possible.

Li Yuanqing also inquired about some government affairs that he cared about, such as the development of the West and Middle Islands, the casualties of slaves, and the construction productivity of the ordnance workshop.

Shang Lao Liu and Steward Ma both explained Li Yuanqing one by one.

Shang Lao Liu soon left to work on the shipwright's side, while Steward Ma stayed behind and reported to Li Yuanqing in detail about this year's spring plowing preparations.

Due to last year's bumper harvest of sweet potatoes, this year, not only Changsheng Island, including Guanglu Island, Phi Island, and the surrounding areas, the fields controlled by the three departments must be promoted on a large scale.

Until everything was discussed and Steward Ma left, at this time, I am afraid that the time has already passed, Zhang Yunniang and Qu Minqiu have already fallen asleep on the soft collapse on the side.

The maids had already been sent away, and there were only three people left in the room.

Looking at the charming but somewhat tired faces of the two girls, Li Yuanqing's heart was also a little distressed.

The male protagonist is outside, and the female protagonist is inside.

In the eyes of outsiders, as Li Yuanqing's legitimate wife, the two girls are naturally high, but who knows how much pressure they have to bear in order to help him Li Yuanqing's great cause?

Just about to carry the two girls to the inner study to rest, but at this time, Li Yuanqing suddenly thought of a good idea, and after a while, he smiled and tiptoed towards Zhang Yunniang......
