African Nationhood

Chapter 127 Marriage (Part ) Looking for first order! ! !

Ye Shilong's departure caused a huge repercussion in Lanfang Company, and even the senile Liu Asheng was alarmed.

All the officials of Lanfang Company began to speculate as to what went wrong. Why did Nanhua Company transfer a "big official from the border area"?

The Zhong Yilin who was replaced was too young. How could a yellow-haired boy manage the affairs of Dongwanlu City?
  Sure enough, within a few days, Zhong Yilin came to visit on behalf of Nanhua Company.

By the way, I informed Lanfang Company: Due to the protests of the Dutch, Nanhua Company was unable to fulfill its previous agreement and could no longer provide them with arms.

This hit Lanfang Company's seven inches. After several months of trade, they only purchased more than 3000 Martini Henry rifles from Nanhua Company, and only 3 rounds of bullets.

And it was expensive. One rifle cost three Chinese immigrants or five indigenous women.

Bullets are not cheap either. 100 rounds can be exchanged for one Chinese immigrant or two indigenous women.

Such armaments would not only expel the Dutch, but even self-protection would be a problem.

So Liu Enguan, under the instruction of Liu Asheng and Li Yuchang, came to the manor outside Dongwanlu City to ask for an audience with Zhong Yilin.

The reply he got was that there was nothing he could do, and Liu Enguan returned without success.

……

Zhong Yilin got the telegram from the company headquarters half a month ago. The moment he got the telegram, Zhong Yilin was shocked by the content of the telegram.

Mr. Shi actually wanted to recognize him as his adoptive brother, which frightened him!
  A man as talented and strategic as Mr. Shi wants to recognize him as his adoptive brother?
  How does this sound unreasonable?

Zeng Ze was also confused when he received the telegram, and wanted to ask Zhong Yilin what kind of magic he had used.

If that's possible, let alone a foster brother, he could just be a godson.

But when he saw Zhong Yilin, he immediately bowed to Zhong Yilin respectfully.

"Mr. Zhong will become famous in the future, but don't forget about me, brother!"

Zhong Yilin had nothing to say except a wry smile.

He has been feeling uneasy in his heart. He really doesn't know whether this incident is a blessing or a curse. It happened so suddenly.

He and Zeng Ze had nowhere to ask, and no one to discuss it. After all, they were alone overseas and too far away from the headquarters.

Zhong Yilin thought that he was somewhat talented, but he could not afford to be so valued by Mr. Shi.

Serving as the deputy general manager of Pontianak Port Commercial Center is already a great recognition for him.

As the chief representative of Dongwanlu City, for him, Alexander is just trying to catch up.

None of the people in Lanfang Company took him seriously, thinking that he was just a sounding board.

In fact, he did the same thing. If something happened, he would do it according to the regulations set by Ye Shilong, and rarely expressed his own opinions.

During this period, he has been very nervous, fearing that he would make a mistake and cause losses to the company.

……

The content of this telegram made him even more frightened, and he didn't know what to do next.

Fortunately, he did not worry for too long. The company sent a go-getter, Ouyang Geng.

This is Mr. Shi's classmate and confidant. Although he knows Ouyang Geng, he is only familiar with him and has basically never interacted with him.

As a junior, Zhong Yilin rushed to Pontianak Port to meet Commissioner Ouyang immediately.

After all, this person's talent and connections are beyond his comparison.

After walking down the gangway, Ouyang Geng saw Zeng Ze and Zhong Yilin standing side by side.

After the two of them announced their names, Ouyang Geng immediately looked at Zhong Yilin carefully.

Well, he has a fair face and thin face, red lips and white teeth, and good facial features. He is a good man.

"Hello, Commissioner Ouyang, please come with me to the store to rest."

"Well, okay, Representative Xiao Zhong will ride in the carriage with me."

Zeng Ze felt sad when he heard this, "Sure enough, this educated person is willing to be with an educated person. After all, a rough guy like me can't stand in their eyes."

After getting on the carriage, Ouyang Geng laughed playfully and said, "It's time for me to congratulate Representative Xiao Zhong in advance."

Zhong Yilin's face tightened when he heard this, and he said with a smile: "Well, where does this joy come from? If Mr. Shi recognizes me as his adoptive brother, to be honest, I really don't think it is a happy event.

After all, I have no achievements in the company, let alone any extraordinary talents..."

“Pfft”     “Representative Xiao Zhong, don’t belittle yourself, your talents are quite good.

The most important thing is that you are good-looking, and Mr. Shi has a very good impression of you..."

Zhong Yilin froze immediately when he heard this, and a few words kept echoing in his mind: "You are good-looking, and Mr. Shi has a good impression of you."

This, this, this, is Mr. Shi a manly man?
  Do you think you think of me as your sworn brother just to cover up people's eyes?

How can this be good?

Commissioner Ouyang must have taken over my position when he came here.

When the cruise ship returns, I will inevitably be asked to accompany it back to the headquarters. Where should I go then?

Zhong Yilin was torn between his future benefactor and his self-esteem.

He was young and wise, and became a scholar in his first examination.

If there hadn't been that natural disaster, he should have chosen to continue studying.

Not to mention being a Jinshi in high school, it shouldn't be that difficult to be a candidate.

Do I really have to rely on the "lucky" shortcut to succeed now?

Even if I succeed, how should I be recorded in the history books of future generations?
  Ouyang Geng on the side noticed that Zhong Yilin's face looked confused and struggling, and he was curious, what happened to this young man?
  Little did he know that this lucky young man was imagining a drama about court ethics.

The protagonist is still the aggressive Boss Shi...

(Oops, it’s so dirty!!!)
  "Representative Xiao Zhong, Representative Xiao Zhong, what's wrong with you? What are you thinking about?"

"Oh, oh, I'm sorry, Commissioner Ouyang. If you have anything to say, just say it. I can accept it."

“Oh, this is such a good thing, but other people can’t get it even if they want it.

Why do you look so depressed? Be happy. "

Zhong Yilin was even more upset when he heard this. Do you want me to be happy about this?
  Well, it is a good thing to be able to cross the class through "lucky advancement" and get closer to the center of power.

Zhong Yilin forced a smile, "Commissioner Ouyang, tell me, I can accept it."

Ouyang Geng saw that this person's expression didn't look like he was willing, so he asked tentatively: "Can you really accept it?

This matter is indeed a bit unfair to you, but that guy Shi Wenyuan thinks you are the most suitable.

Your appearance and talent are definitely more than enough! "

Although Zhong Yilin was still heartbroken, he still wanted to comfort himself, Mr. Shi, he really recognized me!

"Speaking of which, Liu Enguan's daughter, apart from being younger, still looks good.

His character is said to be very good, but his feet are not bound..."

Zhong Yilin was even more confused when he heard this. Didn't he talk about being Mr. Shi's male favorite? Why did Liu Enguan's daughter get involved again?

"Commissioner Ouyang, you said Liu En, the official daughter...

ah? Does this matter involve me and Liu Enguan’s daughter,,son,? "

Ouyang Geng asked doubtfully, "You look down on others?
  Just because she didn't have her feet bound? "

Zhong Yilin almost cried. He thought about it for a long time, but he really thought something wrong. Oh my god, what on earth was I thinking?
  "I'm sorry, Commissioner Ouyang, I just got distracted.

I don't mind it, I like women who are relaxed.

Mr. Shi has long said that he will issue a decree banning women's foot binding in Southwest Africa.

It's just that the population under our control is too small and we haven't had time to promulgate it. "

Ouyang Geng felt relieved when he saw Zhong Yilin's sudden smile.

When he came here before, Shi Wenyuan asked him to do his job as Xiao Zhong, and he secretly complained about Shi Wenyuan's mother-in-law.

His subordinates gave him the honor, so what's wrong with sacrificing himself for the great cause?
  Not to mention that the daughter of the Liu family is pretty good, but she is just a fat pig. How dare he not marry her?
  But Shi Wenyuan told him, and he still had to carry it out.

Now that Zhong Yilin took the initiative and was willing to accept it, he also saved a lot of words.

"Well, that's good. As long as you agree, our errand will be easy to handle.
  　Please make your first order, first order, first order! ! !
