Chapter 99: Turbulence
Your Highness, do you not want your dignity anymore?
____
The reason for this delay was that although Gu Yun had rushed back and forth between the capital city and Jiangbei, there were still s to be done in the front line, just in ti rest until his daily routines were no longer hindered by the injuries, only then did the two men depart for their return
On the way back, they happened to run into a busy area along the canal
The factories under construction were always not very pleasant-looking, dust was everywhere Co hard, or the officials and merchants ere sent down, everyone’s faces were dirty, but they were still in order
The workers had two ees who had just laid down their butcher knives gathered together and fished out cakes frouises and walked around anony of those cakes was very good, with proper millet and felt heavy in the hand It was not comparable to the precious and rare delicacy on Qi Yuan Tower from the capital city in that year It could not even be described as a si ether, each held one piece of dry food, dipped in soy sauce brought froether, it could make one feel a peace of mind
Near the outskirts of the capital, Gu Yun rode along with Chang Geng’s carriage and chatted about this along the way Chang Geng laughed and said, “The craftsmen may be invited from outside They co Most of the re workers are directly recruited by Master Du froees In the future, where they had carried the bricks is where they willFor this reason, I heard that Master Du asked for a decree fro in the nao, the factory would not drive people out They will belong to this place for the rest of their lives”
No one was er to take root and build their o hoees who had drifted away In order to build their new families, they can do their work steadily and quickly without any trickery Du Wan Quan only needed toa lot of randmothers ould call him ‘Charitable Du’ behind his back, when they worshi+pped Bodhisattvas, there was alith his share This God of Wealth was truly sht for ataxes, It’s a bit like a military household It’s just that civilians are not the same as the army What if there is someone who doesn’t do their job or coulations have been issued by the Grand Council,” Chang Geng said “Before I left, I had instructed Jiang Han shi+ It has been sent along with the imperial decree There are thirteen rules in it After they finish their work every night, soe will come to explain this to them If the evidence proves to be correct, the local branch of the Canal Department can fire the bullied in case of collusion between government and business in the future?”
Gu Yun was duhed and said, “What, there even is a solution for that?”
“Yes,” said Chang Geng, “For people who have worked for the factory for over ten years, if half the auarantee, the person can stay,it up to the Canal Department at the next level In fact, even if we do this, after a long time problees, it is i have you planned this?”
“It was not hed “It’s only when I first caue idea After a long ti nonstop with them, it took roup have traveled south and north all their lives, taking e is vast and they are quick in reaction, they only lack a ladder I only needed to set up a ladder for him, he can handle the rest”
Scholars have the meticulousness and senti and skills of businessood or bad, one could only see which way the upper people illing to lead the to the situation
“By the way, Zi Xi, I also heard Master Du say that Westerners have this type of very long and large car,” Chang Geng said excitedly, looking out froe “It runs very fast on le and the Giant Kite, it can pull s as you want? It’s much better than the canal ay, but its size was rather large and runs on a long distance, it is not easy to coordinate, just in time for us to use this opportunity of land acquisition for factory construction to leave a space for that thing”
“I really have to thank the Yang-Lu Party for its diligence in buying houses and land, saving me a lot of work Master Du planned to start with the path along the canal and invite sole in Jiangnan’s frontline, rations, Ziliujin, and machine from the capital would be troublesome to transport, if it could be built one day…”
Gu Yun did not have ht ideas on the matter of the national economy and people’s livelihood, but he was extre Geng’swith just one word and quickly said, “Can you elaboratedid not continue, he waved at hied his horse to catch up a little, bent down slightly and asked, “What’s thethat can’t be revealed now?”
“It’s not that I can’t tell you, just…” Chang Geng hesitated slightly
Gu Yun was at a loss for a moment He didn’t reflect on the reason for this confidentiality At that e and quickly took advantage of his lips
Gu Yun: “…”
Chang Geng swept a glance around and saw that with the carriage blocking, nobody was paying attention He whispered, “After we are ho with s”
Gu Yun took the reins and leaned back gently “Howspoiled using the injuries then it is playing tricks on ood in every aspect, only that he had a strong desire for control, especially towards Gu Yun, wishi+ng that he could do such things as changing his clothes for hiular days, he would deliberately restrain himself and try not to et to bed, he was no longer able to pay thatwhispered softly, “Yifu, if I did not serve you well, I can putmore”
Gu Yun: “… Son, you don’t have to work so hard”
Having passed where Jiangbei Camp was stationed, Gu Yun did not wear arown, the sleeves were even wider than his waist
Chang Geng grabbed his sleeve and shook it silently froe and town, they happened to see a three or four-year-old child pulling its parents sleeve crying for candy Ever since then, no one knehich nerve of Chang Geng was fried, he copied the action exactly, see it to the next level
When he was a child, there was no sleeve in the world for hi tall, he always seerets and wanted to hed and felt goosebuhness, do you not want your dignity anyo, and there was a tendency that he would not rest until his sleeve was served in public
When Shen Yi and Jiang Chong led people out of the city to welcoe, poking his head out talking to Gu Yun Gu Yun let his steed wander lazily, with a little hint of a shtened in indifference
Yan wang first said so hi seeain Gu Yun pulled down the curtain of his carriage as if to put hiht, out of lifted up the curtain and poked his head out, Gu Yun finally could not help but burst into laughter, waving his hand as if already defeated, he see was stunned
Shen Yi sighed, “It is fortunate that the Marshal has no blood-related children Otherwise, he would have created aI don’t think he can say no three tiree in the first two ti Chong has not yet returned to his senses, “I thought that since the Marquis was not in the capital for a long time, there is only the title of adoptive father and son between hi, but it seems that their affection is really deep”
When Shen Yi heard the word ‘affection’, his train of thought deviated, his feelings as to how Gu Yun was unable to act as a strict father had made a turn He scolded in his heart, “This Gu Zi Xi blinded by beauty could never be proper for his entire life, what on earth is he doing in broad daylight?”
Gu Yun ‘blinded by beauty’ felt his nose itch, he twisted his head and sneezed As soon as he turned back, he saw Master Jiang with a face full of the senti the two officers at peace,attention to your irily on his forehead
referring to the two highest positions in civil and nified Yan wang was invited into the palace before he could get out of the carriage
Shen Yi constantly gave Gu Yun a conde and disgraceful deed, was currently regretting it He asked angrily, “What are you looking at?”
Governor Shen, an old scholar, reproached with righteousness, “It’s not that I want to be lengthy, but you can be so i with me?”
Shen Yi: “Like a lecher who had his soul hooked by a fox spirit”
Gu Yun: “…”
It was a general injustice of ‘thunder ru in summer’, it was impossible to justify himself even with a hundred mouths…he truly wanted to sever ties with this Shen
Fortunately, before he had tiainst Governor Shen, Shen Yi had blocked his ht you would arrive here in a few days, so I didn’t send a s needed to be said to you First, Jia Lai Ying Huo of the Northern Man had sent an envoy”
