The Great Industrial Ming Dynasty Started from Beiping

Chapter 332 Invisible Power

In the city of Beiping, there are twelve guard offices.

This is the confidence of the palace.

But now it has changed.

A matchmaker came to matchmaking with a smile, and discussed the marriage contract between the two families. After everything was settled, the man's family generously gave the matchmaker money for the matchmaking.

In the past, no matchmaker was willing to come to the guard to make a match.

Not only was the Weisuo poor and dangerous, but the common people were unwilling to marry the Weisuo. Apart from worrying about their daughter's poor life, they were also worried that their family would be implicated and one day be classified as a military household.

The matchmaker herself is also unwilling, because the military family is poor and does not give much money.

It is different now.

The wealthiest group in Beiping is military households.

After all, the workers of China Heavy Industry are mainly from military households and supplemented by civilian households. Although the civilian households have been widely recruited in recent years, the military households have been rich for a few years and have more background.

The matchmaker is naturally willing to come to the military household's house to match.

Military households have money, but now they are much more generous.

If you look carefully, you can find that in the guards these years, there are firecrackers every now and then, and there are newlyweds.

Now it was finally Jiyangwei's turn.

The main force of the Northern Expedition, the military households from Shandong, finally stayed in Beiping to supplement the population of Beiping.

Times change.

Jiyangwei has become an existence that his father does not love his mother.

The combat effectiveness has declined so much that it has actually become the nature of the guards, and the elite of Beiping has become a military system composed of the three guards of Yanshan.

Although Yanshan Sanwei has many people absorbed from Jiyangwei, it cannot change the current situation of Jiyangwei as a whole.

It was not until the fourth year after the development of China Heavy Industry that three years later, Jiyangwei's economic level finally rose to a certain level.

"Your eldest brother went to work in the factory first, and the second brother who took over from your elder brother to serve in the guard has now also gone to the factory."

On the day of family reunion, the old man said at the table.

Daughters-in-law with children in the kitchen.

Today is the first day for the youngest to serve in the guard. The old man has important things to say, and no one is ignorant.

The children stayed in the kitchen obediently. If they ran out to make noise at this time, they would attract a beating from the adults.

"Don't worry, you three brothers, Tian at home. Your mother and I have endured a lot of hardships. We are busy on weekdays. When it comes to the busy farming season, you can ask for leave and go home to help."

"Father, don't worry, I will definitely come back when the farming is busy, and I will pay for a columbine cart for the family."

"I also paid for a threshing cart."

The eldest and the second said.

"If you want to buy it, I won't stop it. Many other houses have it, but ours doesn't. It's easy to make others laugh."

"But that's not the most important thing. Even if you don't buy it, the old man Tian at home will not go to waste. If you can plant it, it's just a couple of extra efforts."

"What I want to talk about is not this matter, but the marriage of the third child."

"I arranged the marriage of the two of you. I have no money now. The harvest in the fields is high, but the expenses are also high now. The dowry is getting higher and higher every year. I can't handle the marriage of the third child. You two should be For brother, each person will pay a portion."

"Even if Dad doesn't say anything, we, as brothers, won't ignore the third brother's marriage."

The eldest looked at the third child, and said with a smile: "Before coming here, your sister-in-law mentioned that the third child should marry a wife when he is old."

The third child lowered his head shyly.

"There is also the eldest sister's family. I want to take the children of the eldest sister's family into my home."

Hearing what the boss said, the old man was so relieved that he couldn't help drinking.

"Why, that family is a white-eyed wolf." The second child scolded angrily, "The eldest sister married before, and that family disliked our family. The eldest sister has had a bad life in her in-law's house for many years, and now you want to help them?"

The old man was silent.

He has handed over many family affairs to his eldest son. He is old and has less energy than before. All he can do is take good care of the family's fields.

After planting the land all his life, the old man only knows how to cultivate the land. He uses it to take care of the children who grow up and have a bright future.

The eldest picked up the wine glass and clinked a glass with the second.

"You can't do without studying." The boss laughed, "Our family doesn't expect someone who can be an official. What we can refer to is the factory."

"When the children grow up in the future, if they don't study, they may not even be able to enter the factory. They will have to farm like we used to."

"Farming the land is hard, and farming the land is difficult."

"Don't look at the family, just look at the elder sister's affection. The nephews can help or need to help. It's best if they are successful, but at least we uncles have not treated them badly."

The second child was speechless.

As soon as he entered the factory, his eldest child was raised at his elder brother's house. With the convenience of his elder brother's house, his eldest child went to school.

"Sister-in-law is a good sister-in-law, but if elder brother continues to do this, I'm afraid sister-in-law will feel uncomfortable." The second child couldn't help but said.

"You underestimated your sister-in-law."

The eldest brother smiled proudly.

"Your sister-in-law works in a factory, and sometimes she thinks more openly than I do. She wants to be a model for workers' families."

In the eyes of different people, there are different views on the family.

Many people are critical of this.

There are also many people in favor.

Fighting father and son soldiers, fighting tiger brothers.

There is a family that turns against each other because of property, and there is a family that loves each other and works together. Everything has two sides.

"Third brother, you can't stay in the village all day, you have to go out more to gain knowledge." The boss turned to the full third child and said.

The third child was the same as before, nodding at what the elder brother said.

"You are relatively relaxed when you first entered the camp. I will buy a ticket with you. One day, you can watch a play at the Peking Grand Theater and learn the spirit of workers, peasants and soldiers."

"Remember not to be afraid of suffering in the camp, don't be afraid of suffering losses, and don't complain. Be good, and when you come out of the army for a few years, you can work in the factory."

The youngest was taciturn, he only knew how to eat, and the third could not beat a fart with a stick. When he heard the elder brother's words, he knew how to nod without saying a word.

……

The third child is very dull.

He can read some characters, but he doesn't know how to read.

The eldest brother said to let him go to school again. His father disagreed with the waste of money by the eldest brother, and he himself did not want to go to school like a child.

A child in the countryside where he has worked since he was a child.

I don't know what suffering is or what is tiredness.

In the barracks, he is even more of a log, he can do whatever he is told to do, and he can walk as he is told. Like the rest of the recruits, he is scolded by the instructor all day long.

As for the mother-in-law.

The third child would giggle sometimes, but he forgot all about it when he got up in the morning. The silly child still doesn't understand so much.

at last.

The camp is on vacation today.

He went to the Peking Grand Theater out of curiosity, fearing that there were so many people there, more than the people in the military camp.

In the barracks.

He thought there were already a lot of people, much more than those in the Baihusuo.

The stage is so beautiful.

Those clothes are very ordinary.

Is that really those people?

The third child couldn't understand, as if a vivid scene was unfolding in front of his eyes, he didn't think it was acting.

He was wearing a military uniform, surrounded by a few teenagers, chirping, which annoyed him, but he didn't dare to say it.

Until the Zijingguan soldiers sacrificed to save people.

There was a sobbing sound from the side, and the third child looked over curiously, and those teenagers who were chattering just now started crying.

What a shame.

The boy shed tears.

The third child felt very refreshed.

Just now he really wanted to make the teenagers keep their voices down, but the third child didn't dare. The inexplicable strength in the teenagers made the third child dare not offend them even more.

The stage quickly attracted the third child again.

Military families are present.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but the third child feels that the elder sister-in-law is similar to the people above. They look different, but they have the same taste.

If the elder brother hadn't retired from the army, if the elder brother died on the battlefield, the sister-in-law would do the same, right?
In my impression, my sister-in-law didn't seem to be like this when I was young.

My sister-in-law even cares about eating.

Since when, my sister-in-law is getting better and better.

bah bah bah.

Eldest brother is doing well, elder brother is not a soldier now, how could he sacrifice himself, he is the one who sacrificed himself, and he became a soldier.

The third child was taken aback by his own thoughts.

Why do you keep thinking about death?

The youngest watched the scene behind with concentration, with envy in his eyes.

If it is such a family, if there is such a woman, in fact, it is not a loss to die, it is a good fortune cultivated in eight lifetimes.

"Are you a soldier?"

The play is over.

Several teenagers looked at the third child with red eyes.

The third child felt the energy of the teenagers, and nodded timidly.

"You are so great, we will also be soldiers in the future."

The third child looked at the teenagers inexplicably.

"More than 100 years ago, our ancestors were conquered, our ancestors became slaves, and our nation slipped into the abyss."

"It was you soldiers who saved our nation, restored the lands and mountains of China, and saved all of us."

The teenagers said in a hurry.

"The sacrifices of the servants and servants have led to the Daming we have today, and we no longer need to be slaves."

"Our school teacher said that we should learn from the lofty spirit of soldiers defending the country and sacrificing themselves to save others."

The third child was confused, what was it all about?

An inexplicable emotion in my heart.

Why do you feel proud, why do you feel warm.

"When we graduate, we will be the Great Wall of Ming Dynasty."

The boys are gone.

The third child returned to the barracks.

He had insomnia that night, and he didn't think about women.

The third child, like most soldiers in the barracks, is like a farm ox in the field, with a long stamina after hard work.

But the third child has a hobby.

He likes to go to the big theater.

Not only him, there are many recruits like him, and going to the grand theater is one of the main ways of pastime for people.

"Professional soldier recruitment notice."

"You guys have to think about it. Although professional soldiers are paid well, they can't be discharged within a few years. They will be soldiers for the rest of their lives. You can tell by their names that they are going to fight. They are real swordsmen."

"Think about it before you go. You can't regret it if you go. Deserters will be beheaded."

The officers terrorized the soldiers.

It's not that they want to do this on purpose, but that many of the soldiers who are currently serving in the army are not well-educated, so they see that the salary is high.

So they have to inform the soldiers in detail, and get rid of those soldiers who are not prepared.

Served as a soldier all his life, fighting with real swords and guns.

Scared a lot of people away.

But there are many military households in Peiping.

The third child signed up.

I didn't dare to tell my family members that their plan was for him to serve as a soldier for a few years before leaving the army and going to a factory.

But the third child didn't want to live like this.

He wants a new way of life.

The third child lived for 18 years, and it was the first time that he violated the family.
