Women Wearing Men: The Growth Path of the Bastards of the Aristocratic Family

Gu Yunji and Xu Shuhua are husband and wife, and it is logical to say that it is no exaggeration to say how intimate their behavior is.But in Shen Boyi's eyes, Xu Shuhua was just the "sister" of Gu Yunji's "wife", and it would be terrible if he misunderstood her.

Hearing Shen Boyi's voice, the two of them were startled and quickly pushed each other away to keep their distance.

Gu Yunji was extremely embarrassed for a moment. He first looked up at the sky, then looked down at the ground, pretending to be very busy. When he saw Shen Baiyi, he showed a surprised expression, as if he had just discovered his existence: "...it turns out to be Mr. Shen, How did you come?"

Shen Boyi was far away before, and his view was blocked again. He couldn't see clearly. He only vaguely felt that the two were very close to each other, as if they were hugging each other.

Taking a closer look, Gu Yunji and Xu Shuhua were almost a foot apart, and they probably had to shout to be heard.If Gu Yunji hadn't behaved strangely, Shen Boyi would have thought it was his own illusion.

After looking at the two of them, nothing unusual was found. Shen Boyi had to suppress the doubts in his heart: "It's nothing. It's just that the inventory of the property left by the Japanese pirates has almost been completed. If I want to discuss with Aiberg about repaying the firearm payment, I need Mrs. Xu." Serve as translator.”

If this continues, it will only become more and more embarrassing. Xu Shuhua was just trying to find a way to escape when he heard this and said hurriedly: "Then I'll go over first, so as not to keep everyone waiting."

After saying that, she blessed the two of them, subconsciously looked away from Gu Yunji, then turned and left, but her red earlobes revealed her inner panic.Gu Yunji also didn't dare to look at her, and looked at the sky and the sea, as if he were a thief.

Shen Boyi glanced at Xu Shuhua, who was leaving in a hurry, and then at Gu Yunji, who was still hiding, and his doubts became more and more intense.

Is it possible...that the two of them really have an inappropriate relationship?
As soon as this idea came up, Shen Boyi immediately suppressed it: Not to mention Mrs. Xu, the key point is that Mr. Gu is a decent person and has a deep love for his first wife. He never does anything promiscuous. How could he have an affair with his wife's natal sister? Woolen cloth?
Shen Boyi shook his head, put aside the messy thoughts, and stopped looking into it in detail.

After Xu Shuhua left, Gu Yunji and Shen Baiyi quickly followed and went to Gao Shishu's private residence, which was used as a temporary meeting hall by the government.

There were already many people in the meeting hall. In addition to imperial officials such as Mei Feng and Su Qi, Aiberg and Joseph, as representatives of the Franji caravan, were also present, waiting for the meeting to begin.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Mei Feng took out the contract he had signed and said: "According to the cooperation contract, your caravan will provide us with firearms first. After Gao Shishu's group of Japanese pirates are completely wiped out, we will use their remaining weapons." If his family wealth is not enough to pay for the firearms, Daxia will give Franji some preferential treatment in the trade of some important goods in the next three years."

"Although Gao Shishu escaped, fortunately the entire cleanup process went smoothly, and now it's time to fulfill the contract. The good news is that the Japanese pirates' families are rich, and a lot of gold and silver treasures have been found on Mingsha Island. It’s more than enough to pay for the goods.”

With that said, Mei Feng handed the counted list to Aiberg: "Mr. Aiberg, please look at this, this is the list of family assets that has been counted. Do you want the government to pay directly in kind, or convert it into cash?"

After struggling for so long, the Japanese pirates on the southeast coast were finally eradicated. Logically speaking, both the government and the Fo Langji caravan should celebrate this.However, Aiberg showed no interest. He took the order casually, glanced at it twice, and then threw it on the table, as if he didn't want to talk.

Mei Feng raised his eyebrows upon seeing this: "Why, is Mr. Aiberg still dissatisfied?" Aiberg lowered his head and said nothing, neither saying he was satisfied nor dissatisfied.

Su Qi couldn't stand this attitude, and immediately frowned: "As long as the contract is not destroyed for one day, we will still be partners. If you have anything to say, please speak out. Mr. Aiberg is so silent, and he looks so aggrieved that it is difficult to talk about it. It looks like our government has bullied you."

"Haven't you bullied us yet?"

Before Aiberg could speak, Joseph on the side couldn't hold it in anymore and blushed and said: "After signing the contract, we are partners. We treat you sincerely, provide you with artillery, and let you visit the battlefield." Ship, but how do you repay us?”

"You deceived the gunsmiths on our ship, stole our technology, and created exactly the same artillery as the Franco cannon. You are thieves and thieves!"

"It turns out it's because of this." Gu Yunji finally understood where their dissatisfaction came from, and he admitted openly, "Yes, you are right, we did this. But you must understand that we are not thieves, we did not Using conspiracy and tricks is an aboveboard conspiracy."

"First, the gunsmith was not coaxed by us. Zhao Jinbao and the others voluntarily left with us after weighing the conditions offered by the government. As long as you had given them better treatment, they would not have left at all. If you don’t hold back, you are unkind, so don’t blame others for pursuing a better future.”

"Second, we did imitate your Folan cannon, but how can we steal the technology? We neither stole your drawings nor peeked at your manufacturing process. We all relied on our own exploration. Now we have successfully imitated it. That’s right, this is our business and has nothing to do with you.”

"Finally, the artillery we copied is called the Shenwei Cannon, and it is not exactly the same as your Folang machine gun. The Shenwei cannon has seven muskets, with an effective firing range of nearly three miles, and its lethality is more than two or three times higher than that of the Folang machine gun. Such advanced artillery that embodies the wisdom of our Chinese people, do you think your Folan cannon can be used casually?"

Gu Yunji's logic was clear, and Joseph was speechless as he spoke one by one. At the end, he glanced at the two of them and said in a provocative tone: "We just took a few glances at the Folan cannon, and we can imitate it when we get back. Then you also saw it last night We have a powerful cannon. If you have the ability, you can also imitate one and show it to us."

"you!"

The government has the ability to imitate the Fo Lang cannon, but the Fo Lang machine people do not have the ability to imitate the Shenwei cannon. Aiberg was speechless for a moment, and his face was extremely ugly. He really couldn't stay any longer and was about to get up and leave immediately.

"Mr. Aiberg, wait a minute." Mei Feng stopped him and said in a leisurely tone, "We haven't finished discussing the payment for the firearms yet. Since you don't say the method of payment, we will default to converting it into cash. After two days, In accordance with the contract, we will deliver it to your caravan's ship every penny."

"After all, China is a huge country with a grand structure, and we will not break the contract just because of a small displeasure. Although this cooperation has come to an end, it will not affect the friendly exchanges between the two countries. We will still welcome the people of Folangji in the future. Come to China to do business.”

Listening to Mei Feng's vague sarcasm, Aiberg snorted, turned around and walked away.
