C654 Busy March (1/2)

In the dark of the night, Zhang Xiaowen staggered out of the camp, followed by the two eunuchs from Great Xiao Sixi Empire who were giving him two taels of gold. Zhang Xiaowen finally heard a bit of inside news as the two pieces of gold coins were stuffed into the hands of the eunuchs.

So the little emperor was going to cultivate his own direct descendants, not the kind of loyal officials who kowtowed and shouted false slogans in the imperial court. If the little emperor wanted to set up his own subordinates, he would be loyal only to him and not even to the imperial government or the Great Qing.

Zhang Xiaowen's heart thumped loudly like a bull's drum. The fear and excitement mixed together made his eyes dizzy.

Businessmen were naturally fond of politics, but they were also afraid of politics. To follow a big figure would naturally soar to greatness, but if one was wrong, it would be irreparable.

But there was still a little bit of anticipation in Zhang Xiaowen's eyes. Tongzhi was only 11 years old and his thoughts were so deep, yet he could already understand the secrets of the imperial court. Or could it be said that the Prime Minister Xiao's teachings were sound?

”No, I have to return to my home right now. Even if it costs several hundred thousand silver taels less, I still have to personally report this good news to the restaurant owner!” In Zhang Xiaowen's bosom was a few small words mentioned by the emperor with a pen. It was a precious gift given to Hu Xueyan.

Unstable without agriculture, rich without work, poor without business, uneasy without weapons, and a prosperous world!

This was the message Xiao Letian had once given to the little emperor. Zai Chun had bestowed the title of being the golden law in charge of his own affairs, and these words already had the basic concept of equality between all citizens. As for the little emperor's brainwashing education, it had already begun to bear fruit.

When Zhang Xiaowen saw the four words ”Wu Shang isn't able to live”, his tears flowed down like water. He cried like a child, he knew that with just that one sentence, Hu Xueyan could sacrifice his entire clan's life to the Emperor.

For thousands of years, an emperor had spoken a word of justice, and the merchants had waited for their spring.

Zhang Xiaowen jogged back to the branch office to pack up a little. Taking advantage of the night, he boarded the ship and headed straight for Shanghai.

Everything that Zai Chun had done could not be hidden from Xiao Letian's eyes, and he did not hope to be able to hide it from him either.

Hearing that, the corner of Xiao Letian's mouth rose, ”It's good to be young, your brain is not pedantic, it's not stubborn. If it was a completely brainwashed emperor, even if you cut me half a mountain, I still wouldn't teach him …”

”If you know how to divide society and analyze it to judge, if you know how to discard face and pursue truth, then that means that he has come to terms with it. Very well, don't bother about it and let him do it, when Hu Xueyan comes to the Ryukyu, I also want to meet him …”

It was already late in the night, but Xiao Letian was not in the mood to sleep. Under the candlelight, the mountain-like documents would require his instructions, the cold, wet sea breeze blew in from the window, and the bitter coffee was already cold, but Xiao Letian had long forgotten about it.

The Ryukyu's winters were short, but there were very few typhoons in a month or two. Sooner or later, it would feel like autumn. As soon as they entered the warm, humid March Pacific vapors, they brought with them plenty of rain.

During this period of time, all of the affairs of the Ryukyu had been carried out step by step, and the new recruit training had become even more advanced. Even the little emperor had participated in the actual target shooting training, while the four guards had long been sent to the Snake Island to survive in the wild.

The laying of the submarine cable was very smooth, going all the way north along the Bulbus Glazed Island. There were too many small islands, and every once in a while, the submarine cable would have an island as its base station. Furthermore, Xiao Letian had ordered for them to be built from the north and south, which shortened the construction time even further. It was estimated that the two mooring boats would converge at Amami Oshima in June, at which time the information from Japan would reach them in an instant.

There were still a lot of pleasant news, but in early March, news of Napoleon III finally arrived in France. The conditions for negotiation that Xiao Letian proposed were completely accepted by France, the Dahuangdi Islands were exchanged for the lives of all the captives in the French army, while others claimed that Xiao Letian spent money to buy this island.

The captured battleships were also left behind, but at that time, Napoleon III really wouldn't have the face to let these battleships return to Europe. He couldn't stand the ridicule and ridicule from the European aristocracy circle.

Countless of Forces nouvelles soldiers s had almost blown up their camps during the signing ceremony. When Molière, the executioner, and the French prisoners of war began to board the ship, a wave of stone and garbage filled the air. Even Molière's forehead got hit by a pebble, and he was bleeding profusely.

Under the desperate attacks of, Sima Yun, Luo Huo and the other generals, the Frenchmen finally managed to board the ship safely. It was just that everyone was in a bad mood.

However, after the ceremony, Dragon Lord leaked a top-secret message, causing the angry soldiers to smile brightly. It turned out that Xiao Letian, Dragon Lord and the others had secretly brought over a group of prostitutes from Southeast Asia, and these women had unfortunately gotten infected with the Flower Willow Disease.

Yes, it was the disease of the willows that Europeans sent all over the world. In Asia, Flowering Willow Disease is actually a foreign product, a European pathogen brought to the world by ocean sailors.

In China, only the medical books of the Ming dynasty had ever recorded this illness. Before the Ming dynasty, the Chinese people were extremely blessed and did not need any protection, so there was no need to be afraid.

Today, the sinister Xiao Letian would use his own path to exchange for the other person's body. The virus that you Europeans bring all over the world, will then be returned to you untouched.

”Isn't it rumored in Europe that Molière and the French Emperor have split their sleeves? It would be best if he also got infected by a flower willow disease, this is the real retribution! ”
