"If necessary, we will not go to Zhongnan." Sumarokov continued after thinking for a while.

"Big deal, we will occupy a city after we arrive in the southwest region, and ignite the fire there too! Hmm... this is not appropriate, after all, 1000 people are still too few, and it is not suitable for re-enactment."

Sumarokov pondered. After all, he came from Evesu, and he was not very familiar with the rural route.Even now, his subconscious idea is to occupy a city, and then use it to develop revolutionary forces and spread to the entire southwest.

"Let's take one step at a time." Sumarokov said slowly after thinking for a long time.

"Plans can never catch up with the rapid changes, and the truth is to adapt to the situation."

"Let's put these things aside for now, and we will make careful plans tomorrow. How about I teach you a song?" Sumarokov suddenly took Yegor towards the barracks and said with great interest. .

The soldiers over there cheered up when they heard that they were going to learn to sing. They looked at Sumarokov very curiously and waited for Sumarokov to sing.

"Sing? What song?" Yegor asked curiously again.

"This is how the song is sung." Sumarokov paused, cleared his throat and sang:

"Arise~ hungry and cold slaves, Arise~ suffering people all over the world..."

......

"So, both of them are interested in talking to us?"

Sun Boyang and Okdo asked solemnly as they sat on the chairs and stared at the two letters in front of them.

"I don't want to talk to us, but I want to talk to everyone I know." Holding a cigarette, Sun Boyang picked up the letter with the blue pattern on it and said.

"Whether it's Brave or Victor, they are all very ambitious people. No matter who they are, they will never give up."

"It was written in these two letters that we not only invited our central and southern government to participate in the conference, but also invited Grand Duke Nicholas of the southwest and the northern autonomous government to participate in the discussion and establish a conference for the government of the Yongdalim Republic," Sun Boyang said. Okto said.

"It seems that both of them want to claim to be orthodox and become the real new government." Okdo frowned and opened the letter with the orange coat of arms, saying to Sun Boyang.

"It's true, they all want to disintegrate each other's power through the pen and realize the unification of Yongdalim." Sun Boyang nodded and said.

"Then which one should we go to?" Okedo put down the letter and asked Sun Boyang again.

"What do you think?" Sun Boyang snuffed out the cigarette in his hand and asked back.

"The brave man is good at conspiracies and tactics, and I'm afraid he is definitely not someone who is willing to watch the republic for a long time. This time, he was forced to achieve peace talks between the east and the west, and let him ascend to the position of the commander. A round of suppression has been implemented." Okedo thought for a moment and said.

"But Victor, he is too weak. If we support him, he may still dream of his restoration or go dark with the bourgeoisie in the future, and he will never stick with us to the end."

Okdo also frowned, really undecided.In fact, these two people are not partners that the Zhongnan government can choose to cooperate with at all. If the Zhongnan government is just an ordinary force, then naturally there is no problem, and they can choose sides at will.But the Zhongnan government is not a pure force, it is a power of higher order.This position is destined to cause conflicts to break out in the future unless they are willing to compromise with the Leszek members of the Central South Government.

"Victor, although he has always dreamed of restoration, has a very indecisive personality. He wants to be emperor, but he also wants a good reputation as a democracy. He covets the status of emperor, but he also wants to be respected by the world. The name of a sage." Sun Boyang said decisively as he extinguished the cigarette.

"We should stand by Victor's side, push him hard to the left, push him farther and farther away from the side of the throne, until he can only stand on the side of fame."

"Then we have to make preparations to unite with Victor to fight against the government of the Republic together? Will this not be a joke? After all, the brave side is the orthodox center now." Okto continued to ask.

"There's nothing to be afraid of. We were ready the moment we played it." Sun Boyang shook his head and replied.

"This is not a rejection of peace, but a complete liquidation of the old society and doctrine, and the establishment of a new real republic. Rather than calling it a rebellion, it would be better to say..." Sun Boyang continued after thinking for a moment.

"A Northern Expedition."

......

The bullock cart was moving forward with difficulty on the muddy ground, and the rainfall in the southeast was even more outrageous than that in the central south. Even in late October and early November, it was still dominated by rain.

"Push, push, push! Push harder!"

Stephen shouted, asking the young people behind to push the bullock cart out of the quagmire again.In this horrible weather, if it wasn't for the fact that something happened, who would want to come to the hinterland of Southeast Province to do business?

"Three two one, use force!"

Stephen rolled up his sleeves and directed on the stone beside him, he didn't have the habit of doing heavy work, he didn't have it before, and he definitely won't have it in the future.Who is he?He is the brother of Sun Boyang, the number one figure in the Central South Government, how can he do this kind of work?

"Keep going! It will be easy to push it out!" Stephen still shouted.

Seeing Stephen's appearance, the young people below shook their heads helplessly, but they didn't complain too much.Although this guy who is full of businessman's selfishness is annoying to these young men from the Central South government, he can't get angry.After all, these bullock carts were loaded with precious supplies. Without Stephen's guidance and planning, these items would never have been delivered to the Zhongnan government, let alone completed the transaction.

Owen looked at his adoptive father's high-spirited command, and couldn't help curling his lips to express his helplessness.He also rolled up his sleeves, ran towards the back of the bullock cart, and pushed up with those young brothers.

Little Irving is a child that these young people like very much. He is not like the adoptive father who knows how to command blindly, but works with them very honestly.This also makes these young people often feel very puzzled, and privately talk about why Stephen is so angry, why are his children so honest and willing to work?

"Little Owen, take a break! We will launch it in a while. You were tired enough to help us load yesterday. Take the time to rest." A young man wiped his sweat with a towel around his neck and said .

"I'm not tired, and I'm doing a good job." Owen shook his head, pushed the bullock cart vigorously, and said while working hard together.

"Hey! Owen! Why did you run over there!" Stephen saw Owen getting into the queue of transport workers, and quickly waved his hands and shouted.

"Come back!" Stephen waved Owen back angrily. Now Owen couldn't pretend he didn't know, so he just walked back honestly.

"You boy, I adopted you as an adopted son. I didn't want you to do heavy work like them!" Stephen pointed at Owen angrily and said.

"But, Dad. My uncle said that there's nothing wrong with working, everyone is the same." Owen retorted.

"You can't listen to everything your uncle says." Stephen shook his head indifferently and said.

"Your uncle, that's a tough person. Of course he doesn't think it's a big deal, but you have to know that a person should live a decent life and live a decent life. You can't do this kind of work all your life." Stephen said earnestly to Owen Instill the truth and said.

"My sister sent a letter back that day, and she said that she has learned a lot at school now and feels that it is an honor to work." Owen scratched the back of his head and still didn't agree with his adoptive father.

"What? Is your sister going to school?" Stephen asked in surprise and anger.

"Oh! I knew it! This girl must be doing something bad!" Stephen squatted on the stone in a very angry way and said sullenly.

"I sent her to your uncle to let her learn how to be a wife, and to study there!" Stephen spread his hands and said.

"Do you know that your uncle is already 35 years old, and he will be [-] in a few years, let alone a child, and he doesn't even have a wife." Stephen said helplessly.

"But uncle doesn't have a daughter..."

"I gave it to him! That child is an adopted son just like you." Stephen waved his hand impatiently.

"Think about it, if it is your uncle in the future, someone must inherit such a large family property, right? Zhongnan is not big, but he is not small! He was a standard earl before. Such a big mess, Factories, farmland, and family property can’t be made cheap to outsiders, right? Even if you inherit it to your other uncle, Sun Raul, it won’t make us lose all of it.” Stephen spread his hands again and gestured.

"But it's all public, not uncle's." Owen was not fooled by his adoptive father's fallacious reasoning, and argued with reason.

"Your uncle is the country, and your uncle is the father!" Stephen straightened his back and said.

"I didn't expect that your sister was really disappointed and went to school. It's a pity that I, Stephen, managed to find such a big man. I can only watch the family property but can't reach out..." Stephen sighed Said.

"Then why don't you stay there and urge my sister?" Owen asked, spreading his hands.

"What do you know, kid? This is a time when the world is in chaos. I must behave well at this time, so I can find a good seat for you to inherit!" Stephen rolled his eyes and replied.

"Then why did you take the initiative to help uncle investigate the slave market in our Central South? We wiped out all those slave traders? You know, that day I saw those people sending you money and asking you to be a backer..." Owen continue to ask.

"I just said that children don't understand anything." Owen stood up again and said.

"What's my name? That's called Dayi Mie...you. Think about it, with your uncle's personality, let alone a slave, he won't even tolerate landlords and rich people. If I'm greedy for a little money for a while, I'll be Your uncle took it, so didn't he pick up the black bread and lose the saury?"

"But there is one more thing. Uncle entrusted you to help the Chamber of Commerce design the market and make procurement plans. You stayed up until midnight before resting, and I didn't see you stealing some of it..."

"This......"

"I also saw that last time you dragged your sister to donate a lot of the reward from your uncle, saying that you wanted to give her a name, but your uncle just praised her and gave her a small badge... "

"..."

"Also, when some uncles said they were going to work in the central province last time, you dragged them to send a sum of money to the old shopkeeper..."

"..."

"Also, I got up that night and saw you secretly reading that book..."

"Okay, okay, usually you don't talk much, why are you talking so much today? I really doubt that I adopted a crow instead of a child, so you can't say a few words less?" Stephen walked away helplessly Said.

"All right, all right, you go do your work, I don't care, do whatever you want! You boy, you really don't have my temperament, I think it's right for your uncle to adopt you." Stephen was dissatisfied complained.

"Hey, Dad, don't be angry, I really want to go to Wangcheng to visit that old shopkeeper." Owen smiled and rubbed Stephen's shoulders very "filially".

"Don't come here, dirt and mud with one hand, dirty my woolen coat." Stephen patted Owen's hand in disgust, but did not forcefully stop Owen's filial piety.

"If you want to go to Wangcheng, wait until next time. Next time you may go to Wangcheng. Your uncle asked me to buy some magic materials and contact the workers there. I will take you there later." Stephen thought for a moment and said .

"Yeah! Dad, I knew you were the most reasonable!"

Owen immediately hugged Stephen, he already knew that Stephen was just being stubborn and couldn't hold back his face.Although my father talked about his business plans every day, he was indeed influenced a lot by his uncle.In this regard, Uncle's influence on people can be said to be unique.

"Okay, let's go and do your work." Stephen couldn't get angry when he saw Owen being so happy. He still knew very well that if he did this kind of thing, he would easily die if he had too much contact.You said this kid, can't he learn business from him honestly?He had to move closer to his uncle.

"But speaking of it, I really have to find a wife for Brother Sun Boyang." Stephen rolled his eyes, rubbed his mustache and thought again.

"People who are almost on the verge of death, it's shameful not to have a wife. But where can I find a good match? In the past, I must have looked for the daughter of a big businessman or a jazz, but now? It's not good to find such a person. It’s not unreasonable to be born as a commoner, is it?”

"This is also a difficult task, no wonder Brother Sun Raul has a headache." Stephen patted his head and said.

......

"I said father, you rest! Don't think about these things anymore!"

Sun Boyang watched dumbfoundedly as his father Santos took out several envelopes from his bag, opened them and spread them on the table for him to choose.Sun Boyang's "bachelor beating a bachelor" problem has long been Santos' heart disease. In fact, not only him, but even many people in the government think it is very shameful. The people around him are already married, even the younger generation Many of them got married early.On the other hand, Comrade Sun Boyang is still insisting on celibacy, whether it is for his life or work, he should adjust it.

Sun Boyang could only put his hands on his hips and sigh helplessly. It seemed that this kind of checkpoint had been pushed over again, and he had to go through it again.

"I collected these for you. They are all girls from good families." Santos was also very angry when he saw Sun Boyang's reluctance, and patted the table hard and said.

"What? What kind of family? In your eyes, is the daughter of a nobleman the right family? Or the daughter of a merchant?" Sun Boyang walked back to his desk and said to Santos.

"You don't come here, what am I referring to? You still don't understand?" Santos became even more angry when he saw that Sun Boyang was going to refuse.

"You make that Laoshizi revolution, okay, I have no objection, after all, you are more than 30 people, and you have your own ideas." Santos picked up the teapot on the table and poured water into the cup one after another to press the fire.

"You lost your family property, and I didn't say anything, right? After all, it's normal to have gains and losses in the game of power. You didn't allow me to go into business later, saying you wanted to avoid suspicion. Didn't I go against you? ?” Old Santos became more and more angry, and simply stood in front of the desk and asked.

"During this time, I can only stay at home and take care of the children, and I can't do anything else. I used to have a few small workshops that I managed, but now I can't even open a small workshop..." Santos Xuxu said naggingly.

"Father, I know you are working hard, but you are my father and you always have to take responsibility. If you really can't stay, you can go to the factory and find a job that suits you."

Sun Boyang is also a little guilty. Although Santos has been very dissatisfied with Sun Boyang's selflessness and other actions, he has not made any opposition in specific actions.Although this does not mean that Santos understands Leszek and Sun Boyang's approach, it is also a great help.As everyone knows, after many people succeed, not to mention that their relatives understand and firmly support them, even if they don't make trouble or make trouble, and don't ask for positions and status, they are rare good relatives.

"Pull it down, I can't do that job." Santos refused.

"I don't have the ability to do heavy work, and I can't get rid of this old face. I don't know much about clerks, so I can barely do accounts, let alone do it."

"I don't have any other requirements. It's very good that you have great ambitions. It's okay to not be with His Majesty, even if you do things by yourself. But that's all I ask. Your brother's son is already three years old, but What about yours? You must let me hug a big grandson, right?" Santos saw Sun Boyang's hard words and refused to accept them, so he had no choice but to be soft again, and coaxed him in a nice voice.

"I want you to get married and have a grandson. Doesn't this violate your cumbersome rules? Can you manage to get married if you manage work, eat and drink? If you are not satisfied with these, you can find it yourself. Anyway, I will definitely You have to see your grandson." Santos said firmly.

"This..." Sun Boyang hesitated, there was really no excuse for this.All the good and bad words have been said, and other comrades have actually talked to Sun Boyang, and they think that going on like this is not an option.It is impossible for the guards to be responsible for all of Sun Boyang, there must be a female comrade to help.

"What are you worried about, what are you worried about? In this way, I don't interfere whether you are looking for farmers or workers. As long as you can have children and look good, it doesn't matter where you are looking for." Santos waved his hand.

"Okay, I will consider it." Sun Boyang pondered for a moment, and could only nod his head in agreement.

"Are you serious? You can't go back on your mind if you make up your mind!" Santos asked overjoyed.

"I'm serious, this is really outrageous." Sun Boyang took out a cigarette from his pocket, frowned and said to Santos.

"Okay, then these letters, I let you here, you look for it, it doesn't matter if you don't like it, you can delay others, or find it yourself. But in short, you have to finish this matter within a year, It can't be delayed any longer." Santos said with a smile.

"I know, I will look for it." Sun Boyang nodded in agreement. Once he agreed or promised, he would never break his promise easily. He would really consider it seriously.Speaking of which, it is indeed time to take this opportunity to advocate free love...

"By the way, I heard from your brother that you stay up all night and don't take a serious rest?" Santos walked to the door and remembered something, and quickly turned back and said.

"It's nothing, nothing." Sun Boyang sat on the chair in front of the desk, crossed his legs, checked the latest news and said with a wave.

"You have to pay attention to your body. You can't go on like this. If you can't do it in the future, I'll cook for you. Anyway, you have to pay attention."

Seeing that Sun Boyang had entered work again, Santos had no choice but to tell him a few words before leaving.Although he doesn't understand the reason, he can still distinguish the priorities.Right now, the Zhongnan government is in the stage of expansion and development, and there are a lot of things waiting for his son to do it.

"Hey, it's really hard work. Don't they say that people want to find a wife when they climb up? Why is my son just the opposite?" Santos asked self-deprecatingly.

Santos walked down the stairs slowly, and his footsteps stepped on the stairs steadily, full of endless imagination about the future.

......

The wooden stairs creaked, obviously it hadn't been repaired for a while.Old Bernard walked down the stairs slowly and sat back in his shopkeeper's seat, looking outside with a numb expression, looking at the streets of Wangcheng.

bustling?It is indeed very prosperous.After Lao Yuan came, he also strongly supported the establishment of factories and the development of various steam power.Under the single-handed operation of Lao Yuan, Wang Cheng did not become lonely with his arrival, but instead showed a flourishing appearance.

It can't be called the king city anymore, it should be called the capital city.

Pedestrians on the street came and went in a hurry, and they all shrunk their necks as much as possible in the cold winter of November, reducing their exposed parts.The establishment of the so-called republic did not bring them any benefits. They were still plagued by exploitation and heavy taxes. A worker had to start working at around five in the morning and work until six to seven when it was completely dark.If it is a weapon factory worker, then they have to work longer hours.Because there are magic lamps in the workshop of the weapon factory, it can fully support them to work from five o'clock to eight o'clock or even nine o'clock.

They only last about 15 minutes for lunch, and the same goes for dinner.At the end of the day, only these two times are allowed to rest. At other times, high-intensity work must be done online.Even so, their wages are still ridiculously low, and what they get in exchange for super-high and strenuous physical work is only a salary that can barely starve to death.
