Invincible son

Chapter 190 189 [Farewell]

After Zheng Zhirong left, Pei Yue thought alone in the side hall for more than an hour, and only opened the door and walked out at sunset.

"Master." Wang Yong, who had been guarding the door, stepped forward and saluted.

Pei Yue nodded slightly, and said calmly, "Follow me."

The coal yard in the setting sun presents a post-modernist aesthetic that is quite out of this world.After a busy day, the miners can finally return to their residences to wash and change into clean clothes.Although they have a heavy workload every day and are very tired, most of them have smiles on their faces.

Before Pei Yue bought Shouyang Mountain, it was just a piece of wasteland. It is obviously not difficult for him to paint on white paper.The dwellings of the miners are well planned, with rows of simple and solid houses forming the living quarters.There is a bathhouse at the end of every two rows of houses that face each other, and hot water is supplied uninterrupted every day. After all, this is a coal yard, and briquettes are inexhaustible.

Next to the living area is the management area and the canteen. The interior of the canteen is very spacious enough to accommodate hundreds of people dining at the same time.

As the sun set, the smell of food wafted from the cafeteria, and the miners happily lined up to eat.The food is not particularly good, but it is far better than what they eat at home. The most important thing is to keep full.

Pei Yue looked all the way, and occasionally looked back at Wang Yong, feeling very satisfied.

Among his personal soldiers, there are many people who are more capable and talented than Wang Yong, but no one can execute Pei Yue's orders almost perfectly and without compromise like Wang Yong.

The two walked along the path to the coal mountain tens of meters high. Looking at the hustle and bustle at the foot of the mountain, Pei Yue said: "There are a few things, please write them down."

"Master, please order."

"I will ask Deng Zai to bring other people over. Starting tomorrow, you will lead the farmers to guard the coal yard. Feng Yi will help you deal with the accounting problems of the coal yard, and you will lead people to expand the scope of patrolling. If someone comes to make trouble, don't care who the other party is, call me back, and I will deal with the rest."

"Yes."

"The task of escorting the honeycomb coal to Beijing will be handed over to Deng Zai from tomorrow, and there is no need for Zhuangzi to keep anyone."

"Yes."

"The next period of time will not be easy. You have a lot of courage on your shoulders. Not only must you prevent outsiders from making trouble, but you must also keep an eye on the inside of the coal yard, especially the raw material storage area, so that no one can take advantage of it. .”

Wang Yong knelt down on one knee, and said in a deep voice: "The young master entrusted me with such an important task, and there will never be any mistakes, otherwise I am willing to accept the punishment."

Pei Yue didn't let him get up immediately, but said in a very rare solemn tone: "I don't want to punish you, because if something happens, the consequences will be very serious, do you understand what I mean?"

Wang Yong's expression became more and more serious: "Master, the coal yard will be safe."

"Okay, get up." Pei Yue looked at him with satisfaction, thought for a while and asked, "What's the problem here?"

Wang Yong ignored the soot on his knees, shook his head and said, "No problem. The company will send the silver over on time at the end of every month. The miners will stand by us if they have food and wages. Can't fool them."

Pei Yue turned his head to look at the cold and lonely figure on the side of the road at the foot of the mountain, and smiled, "You're right. Relatively speaking, the coal yard is very simple, and there are not so many conflicts of interest. As long as you treat these miners well, they will It will naturally be remembered in my heart, unlike some people who can never get enough to feed."

What Wang Yong lacked most was quick wit. He vaguely heard that the young master was talking about those greedy officials, but there seemed to be other meanings, but he couldn't figure it out for a while.

Pei Yue didn't explain, but reached out and patted him on the shoulder and said, "Do well, let's not mention the future, next year I will help you find a good woman, let you get married in a beautiful way, and don't worry about it anymore .”

This year, Wang Yong changed to a man from a rich family who already had a child, so his parents were naturally more anxious and had hinted to Taohua several times.

"No need to send it off, I'm busy with your business." Pei Yue waved his hand, walked down Meishan, and met Ye Qi who was waiting on the side of the road. After a brief chat, he galloped to Kyoto.

……

In the early morning of the next day, Shiliting in the southern suburbs of Kyoto.

More than ten attendants led the horses to graze at the foot of the nearby mountain. Two young men sat opposite each other in the pavilion.

Gu Fan is more handsome than last year, more and more honorable family members have been visiting the Guangping Marquis recently, and the topic is always inseparable from the unmarried Fourth Young Master of the Gu family.Both his elder brother and second elder brother are married, and their family members are all in the south, so they can see each other during their vacations.Gu Sange is in the western border army, he is only two years older than Gu Fan, and has no plans to marry for the time being.

"The company is in trouble, but I have to go to the south. Can you handle it alone?" Gu Fan became serious, with a worried and apologetic expression on his face.

Pei Yue smiled and asked, "Can't you trust me?"

Gu Fan glanced at the single knife he placed next to him, and sighed inexplicably: "Some people are going to be unlucky."

Pei Yue ignored him, changed the subject and asked, "Is Uncle Gu doing well in the south?"

Gu Fandeng said angrily: "You ask me? I have written more letters to you than letters from home!"

Pei Yue scratched his head in embarrassment, until now he couldn't tell whether what Gu Liang said was true or not.Regarding the scholar named Ling Ping back then, that is, the biological father of Pei Yue that Gu Liang said, he had also inquired about it for more than half a year, but there was no result.Not only did Ling Ping seem to have never existed, but even his biological mother couldn't find any news.

However, Ye Qi can prove that there was indeed Ling Ping, a scholar, who made a marriage contract with Ye Qi's father, Ye Gan.

Even if Gu Liang concealed something, Ye Qi would never lie, so Pei Yue couldn't tell what secrets Ling Ping, a scholar, had, and whether he was his biological son?
Even so, Gu Liang took good care of him. In the past nine months, he sent eight long letters from the south. Although they did not involve military secrets, they introduced the customs of the south in detail.Through these letters, Pei Yue has a very good understanding of the southern side of Daliang, especially the situation and geography on the border.

Thinking of this, Pei Yue said to Gu Fan: "When we get to the south, please greet Uncle Gu for me. I hope he can take care of his health and don't work too hard."

Gu Fan hesitated and said, "How about I let my soldiers go south? Anyway, I just go to visit my father and send over the winter things I prepared at home."

Pei Yue shook his head and said: "You go, next year I will ask His Majesty for an order to go to the southern border to serve as a soldier for Uncle Gu."

After a moment of silence, Gu Fan said solemnly: "Brother Yue, after I go south, the family will be entrusted to you. My mother has a gentle personality, and my younger sister is the daughter of a boudoir after all. You can't let them be bullied."

Pei Yue raised his hand and beat his chest, nodded and said, "Don't worry."

The two raised the wine bottle on the table, looked at each other, and drank it down.

Gu Fan wiped his mouth with the back of his hand, and finally said hesitantly: "There's Li Yuan..."

Pei Yue asked puzzledly: "Since you really like Miss Nanqin, why didn't you redeem her body? Although Li Yuan has a hard foot, I have to give you some face."

Gu Fan sighed: "Of course I want to help her redeem her body, but she doesn't agree, what can I do?"

Pei Yue stared at him blankly, and asked incredulously after a while: "Doesn't she like you?"

"Fart!" Gu Fan stared and said, "She's just scared, even though I promised her."

Pei Yue immediately understood the reason, but this was Gu Fan's affair, even if the two were as close as brothers, it was inconvenient to intervene, so he just said: "I will keep an eye on that side so that no one will harass Miss Nanqin."

"Okay, I feel relieved with your words, and I will come back as soon as possible."

Gu Fan stood up, raised his long sword, and waved at Pei Yue.

Pei Yue walked out of the Shili Pavilion, bowed to Gu Fan's back, and said loudly: "Brother, take care."

Gu Fan laughed loudly and sang away.

Listening to this familiar tune, Pei Yue remembered that on the day when he came to Beijing to force Pei Rong to resign, Gu Fan hummed this little tune when he sent him back to Lvliuzhuang. A heroic demeanor.

As it was then.

　Today is Monday, please recommend your votes, thank you!
