Chapter 649 Nanjing!(1/2)
~~~~~~
A thousand cups of wine is too little to meet a close friend, but half a sentence is too much to talk without speculation!
The banquet lasted until the middle of the night, but it was not over yet. After the banquet, Xu Guangqi took Li Yuanqing's hand and came to his inner study to talk by candlelight.
It wasn't until early the next morning when the sky was getting brighter and Li Yuanqing said goodbye that Xu Guangqi realized what he was doing and couldn't help but said with some reluctance: "Yuanqing, you, you finally came to Jiangnan once, why don't you stay longer?
Regarding the issues of heliocentrism and buoyancy, I still have some things that I don’t understand?”
Li Yuanqing hurriedly smiled and said: "Mr. Ge, there are intensive wars in Liao, so Yuan Qing squeezed out time from his teeth to go to sea this time. Yuan Qing also benefited a lot from being able to talk with Mr. Ge at length all night! However, this time
The time was really tight! However, when Yuan Qing returned to Shanghai from his overseas trip, Yuan Qing begged Mr. Ge to go to Changsheng Island as a guest and take a look at the sweet potatoes and crops in southern Liaoning.
Take a look at the people in southern Liaoning."
Xu Guangqi couldn't help laughing: "Yuan Qing, you boy, you are really a little naughty! What you said makes me excited now. I can't wait and want to go to Liaonan to have a look! Take a look at my Ming Dynasty
The vast territory, look at the men and women who have been fighting bloody battles for our Ming Dynasty! However, going to sea is a big event, Yuan Qing, are you fully prepared?"
Li Yuanqing hurriedly smiled and said: "Mr. Ge, Yuan Qing has always believed that one-third of it is destined by nature, and seven-cent of it depends on hard work!"
"Um?"
Xu Guangqi was stunned for a moment, but then he laughed loudly: "One-third of it is destiny, and seven-cent of it depends on hard work! Okay! That's good! Yuan Qing, I'm here. I wish you an early return in Nanyang and in Nanyang.
On the sea, show off the prestige of our Ming Dynasty!"
…………
After leaving the city of Shanghai, Li Yuanqing was in an extremely happy mood.
Although Xu Guangqi is old and a little too calm, his experience, his philosophy of life, and his acceptance of new things far exceed Li Yuanqing's imagination.
It even somewhat broke Li Yuanqing's inherent impression of the traditional Chinese scholar-bureaucrat class.
However, although time is tight for this trip to Nanyang, Li Yuanqing still has complete control of all time. Not to mention staying in Shanghai for a day, even if he stays for a year, it is not a problem.
But Li Yuanqing understood more clearly that ‘too much is not enough’.
At this time, although Xu Guangqi's acceptance of himself was very high, there was still a gap in levels.
Xu Guangqi might not care if Li Yuanqing stayed in Shanghai for a long time, but it would not do much good to Xu Guangqi's reputation.
The friendship between gentlemen is as light as water, while the friendship between villains is as sweet as sweet wine.
Although Li Yuanqing was already powerful and powerful at this time, it was still unrealistic for a top boss like Xu Guangqi to join his "little shop".
However, Li Yuanqing is still very confident about letting Xu Guangqi "invest in shares with technology" and get some small dividends.
Although he didn't sleep all night, Li Yuanqing's mental state was excellent.
Xu Guangqi's open-mindedness undoubtedly gave Li Yuanqing more confidence. The Ming Dynasty was ruined, but at least there were still many elites in the elite class who did not want to get out of this 'mud pit'.
When we arrived in Nanjing, it was already evening, and it was drizzling all the time, so Li Yuanqing was also a little tired.
Fortunately, Yang Jiao's mother was well prepared here. The 400 soldiers went directly back to the fleet by the river to rest, while Li Yuanqing changed to a carriage and took a hundred soldiers to the city.
Resting at Wuyu Pavilion by the Qinhuai River.
Yingtian.
Jinling.
Nanjing.
Although the name of this thousand-year-old city has changed several times, its roots have not changed much.
Because this is the birthplace of Lao Zhu, Nanjing occupies a very high status in the political map of the Ming Dynasty.
There were two capitals and thirteen provinces in the Ming Dynasty, and Nanjing occupied most of the wealthy areas.
However, with the passage of history, Nanjing's political territory has been continuously shrinking. Now, whoever comes to Nanjing to serve is more likely to be assigned.
For example, Wang Zaijin, the former Minister of the Ministry of War, Liaodong Economic Strategy, and now the Minister of the Ministry of War in Nanjing.
Lao Wang was at an energetic age, but he was put on the bench in Nanjing. Instead, the court wanted to use a "mediocre minister" like Gaudi. I have to say that this is really a joke of history.
The city of Nanjing is very large, with a tiger sitting on top of a dragon, and it has an imperial atmosphere.
Although the size of the city is not as regular as the capital, and there is a lot of "humid air" from the south of the Yangtze River, its scenery is very exquisite, especially in the drizzle of early spring, it makes people feel that it has a unique style.
In the carriage, seeing Li Yuanqing keeping the curtains open and looking at the scenery outside the window, Yang Jiao couldn't help but smile and said: "Who said you are tired? Why are you still in the mood to see this scene?"
Yang Jiao~ Mom is almost four months old.
Her lower abdomen has bulged slightly, and some dense freckles have begun to appear on her pretty face.
The already plump figure has also gained a little weight, and looks a little more 'bloated' than before, but it adds a bit of the charm of a mature woman, making it even more attractive than before.
Li Yuanqing smiled and kissed her on the red lips, "I'm tired. How can I not be tired? However, Nanjing is a good place! This is my first time here. Even if I am tired, I still want to take a good look at the scenery here."
At this time and in this era, no one understood the strategic significance of Nanjing better than Li Yuanqing.
It is a pity that even though "the children of Jiangdong are so talented, it is unknown whether they will make a comeback", Emperor Chongzhen did not overcome this hurdle and take this step after all.
And the small court of Nanming...
Yang Jiao's mother didn't understand Li Yuanqing's true thoughts, so she snuggled into Li Yuanqing's arms obediently and said with a smile: "Yuanqing, the courtyard here in Nanjing Wuyu Pavilion is pretty good. If you like it here, we can spend more time here."
Just stay there for a while."
Of course Li Yuanqing understood what Yang Jiao was thinking. She was pregnant and would give birth in a few months. Naturally, she could not go to sea with the fleet, so she wanted Li Yuanqing to stay and spend more time with her.
In fact, Li Yuanqing's heart was filled with guilt for Yang Jiao's mother.
Although this charming woman had a very low background, almost to the bottom, she used her people, her heart, and her life to help Li Yuanqing hold up another sky.
When Yang Jiao's mother gave birth to Sanlang last time, Li Yuanqing was not by her side, and this time, I'm afraid it will be even more...
Feeling the most familiar body temperature and the most familiar fragrance of Yang Jiao's mother, Li Yuanqing suddenly smiled into her ear: "Jiao~ mother, I suddenly realized that I was a little too anxious to make your belly bigger.
"
"Ai?"
Yang Jiao's mother was stunned for a moment, but she reacted in a moment, her pretty face couldn't help but blush, "Yuan Qing, you are so old, and you are still as frizzy as a child..."
But in her heart, Yang Jiao's mother was extremely sweet. She pinched Li Yuanqing gently, pretending to be shy and angry, and whispered: "Yuanqing, although the top brands here in Nanjing Wuyu Pavilion are not very popular, they are good.
There are quite a few qualified people, would you like to see them tonight?"
"Um?"
Li Yuanqing was stunned for a moment, and he couldn't help but feel a little moved in his heart.
Ten Miles to Qinhuai.
Just these four words mean so much!
When I came to Nanjing this time, it would be unreasonable if I didn’t try it out.
It is a pity that many of Li Yuanqing's family members came during this trip. Although most of them were still on the boat, at this time, Zhang Baozhu, Ren Yinger, Wan'er, and Caizi had already rushed to the Qinhuai River.
Stay at Wuyu Pavilion...
After all, Li Yuanqing's body is not made of iron. This matter is really...
After thinking for a while, Li Yuanqing smiled and said: "Jiao~mother, let's slow down this matter for a while. Let's eat first. By the way, you send someone to deliver my name card to Mr. Wang first, and I will pay him a visit later.
"
Yang Jiao didn't expect that Li Yuanqing actually rejected her tempting proposal.
In later generations, some people said that men want to get all of women, while women want to get all of her most important man.
For Li Yuanqing, Yang Jiao~ mother understood Li Yuanqing better than the roundworm in Li Yuanqing's belly.
But at this time, it was already leisure time, but Li Yuanqing rejected her tempting proposal. From this, we can also know how much pressure Li Yuanqing was at this time.
He would never dare to neglect this trip to sea!
"Why!"
Yang Jiao's mother sighed deeply: "Yuan Qing, actually, hey... your body is your capital! If you have anything to do, I'm not in a hurry right now. Can't you go visit Mr. Wang tomorrow?"
Li Yuanqing smiled and played with Yang Jiao~Niang's little hand, and slowly exhaled a long breath: "Jiao~Niang, time waits for no one! In this game, you must go through the cutscenes, and you must not neglect them easily!"
Yang Jiao nodded feebly and snuggled up to Li Yuanqing obediently.
…………
The Wuyu Pavilion in Nanjing covers an area of forty to fifty acres and is located in the most prosperous middle section of Qinhuai, which is ten miles away. It is more than twice the size of the Wuyu Pavilion in the capital.
As the old saying goes, ‘the butt determines the head’.
In the capital, even if you have power and money, you should not go too far when doing things. You must always leave some room for others to survive.
But in Nanjing, as the political and economic center of the Ming Dynasty in Jiangnan, Nanjing's business was already extremely developed.
In other words, although politics can play a certain role, if you have money and capital, you can basically do anything you want to do!
And with Li Yuanqing's strong support, whether it's for white or black, who will Yang Jiao be afraid of?
However, although the Wuyu Pavilion by the Qinhuai River occupies a large area, its layout has always adhered to the "gold mean" that Li Yuanqing insisted on. The appearance is very simple and does not make any mistakes.
