Chapter 675: He found a good boss
The Chinese officers in the carriage are no longer just brave men who can scream and slay. They have been influenced by Chinese culture, and the leaders have tried their best to build a quality "Southeast Mansion Officer Corps". There are three main requirements; one is loyalty and requires officers. We must be loyal to the leader and the cause of the Southeast Government; second, we must have good combat capabilities, fight bravely, actively exercise military skills, have good military literacy, and cherish our honor; third, we must have a deputy career, familiar with Chinese learning, and best able to Master one of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, or the other.
For this reason, officers have all learned from military academies. After joining the military, they often carry out long or short training. Training includes military knowledge, Chinese learning, living in the world, second career direction, etc. Any officer can run. Not to lose, including leaders, such as the second occupation of leaders is to design warships.
So they know how to appreciate, the view of Kangqiao by the exotic sword river deeply moved them!
Hong Xiguan sat back in his seat, retracted his gaze, and nodded slightly: "Our connotation is still a little weaker!"
The Southeast Mansion has risen at a flying speed. Her military achievements and economic construction achievements are nothing short of a miracle. Even Official Hong Xi feels like a dream!
"I hope Mazu Niangniang will bless the leader to live a long life, be wise and martial, and hope that the Southeast Mansion will be passed on forever!" Hong Xi official prayed to Mazu Niangniang sincerely.
In that era, not only him, but most of the people in the Southeast Mansion thought so.
...
The horse-drawn carriage stopped in front of a manor, looking out, it was deserted, but the scenery of the manor was still good. There was a tiled road all the way to the distant green lawn and all kinds of centuries-old trees dotted with it. The manor near the house has splendid roses in full bloom!
A manor house with a gorgeous and exquisite architectural style, with neatly dressed and meticulously combed servants who opened the door for them. Although it has fallen, the style remains the same.
The servant invited Hong Xiguan, Costitte, Yan Zhang, and Mr. Jorgen to sit in the magnificent living room decorated with a large number of British oil paintings, Romanesque sculptures, Middle Eastern carpets and Chinese vases, as well as various exquisite furniture. Looking out from the inside, there is a small lake outside, with small flowers blooming on the soft undulating grass slopes along the shore of the lake. The lake is level as a mirror, reflecting the blue sky and the reflection of water lilies. ,
A first-class English manor with a very beautiful view!
There was the sound of footsteps, and a graceful and dignified lady came in under the guidance of the housekeeper. She was followed by two young and middle-aged aristocrats who looked similar to Mr. David.
They all dressed generously and decently. The lady was the Countess of Stratford, Mr. David's mother. Mr. Jorgen recognized her and bowed to her, while the three officers of the Southeast Mansion saluted her together.
In return, the countess asked them to sit down, and then introduced the two nobles, Baron Pablo and Lord Chris, the two brothers of Mr. David.
Everyone introduced each other, with a few words, Hong Xiguan expressed condolences to the countess, and the other politely answered. He felt that the countess was a bit harsh, and the Baron Pablo and Lord Chris were also quite stiff. I couldn’t imagine. How can such a family cultivate Mr. David, who is easy-going by birth, eclectic in military use, and unconstrained military thinking? !
In fact, when Hong Xiguan worked with Mr. David, he knew that Mr. David used strange forces to win the war by any means. For example, if he presided over an attack on the Aceh country on the side of the Malacca Strait in Southeast Asia, he would use the strategy of burning the country on fire. A mountain and a city burned, but he burned a country, very hot!
Mr. Jorgen offered to take a break and was accompanied by Lord Chris to leave the living room, allowing the host and guests to talk freely.
Official Hong Xi handed over Mr. David's letter to the countess. After reading it, the countess asked, "So, my David has made a lot of achievements in your army?"
"Yes!" Official Hong Xi said respectfully: "Mr. David is a senior officer in our Southeast Mansion. In our army, he ranks very high and he ranks above me!"
"This child is very talented. If he is there, his father will not necessarily fail. Even His Majesty the King can get his help!" The countess said regretfully.
Official Hong Xi agrees with this. Mr. David is extremely talented and has learned a lot, but Mr. David's mother saw her son sitting on the street without aristocratic manners and socializing with the chins, would she be crazy? ? !
Even in the 17th century, there was a clear distinction between nobles and ordinary people, and the British aristocratic atmosphere was strong, and every move was not bad and sloppy. Official Hong Xi felt that perhaps Mr. David was deeply restrained in such a family atmosphere and felt unbearable. No wonder he has to travel far to Asia and eventually become an important member of the Southeastern Mansion.
"Please go back and pay tribute to David's boss on behalf of our family and thank him for taking care of David!" The countess said politely.
"Yes, hefoundagoodboss." Official Hong Xi said sincerely.
In Southeast Mansion, as long as they are loyal to him, talented people are reused by leaders, regardless of origin and race.
The countess turned her eyes to Kostit and exclaimed: "Mr. Kostit is also a lucky man!"
"Yes, I'm very lucky! Thank you Mazu, thank my leader!" Kosty headed.
"Come on, send the gifts the leader gave to Mr. David's home, as well as Mr. David's own gifts and our gifts!" Hong Xi said.
They were accompanied by sixteen people, ten of whom were non-commissioned officers, big men, breathlessly delivering gifts.
Opening the box, the countess understood why.
One hundred catties of gold and two hundred catties of silver are all gifts from Mr. David when he comes home. They are very solid!
Pieces of gold bricks and silver ingots, if it were not for shipping, these precious metals could not be transported from one end of the earth to the opposite end at all. Fortunately, they were heavy metals and were used as ballasts when they came!
They are all Mr. David’s legal income. The generals of the southeast government earn a lot of income, and there are many extra rewards.
There is another liter of gems, all kinds of gems, including sapphires, rubies, cat's eyes, diamonds, pearls, etc., mixed together to give off a charming luster!
This is a gift from the leader!
Yan Changwu has a lot of plans. He has a good reputation. He is not good for money. He cares about his subordinates' income and the lives and welfare of his people. He cares for foreigners who come to China to help fight. Therefore, there are really many foreigners who have worked for him , To catch up with those fan generals in the Tang Dynasty.
There are also five catties of gold and ten catties of silver, which was collected by Hong Xiguan and the other officers.
To catch up with the troubles of the boss at home, if you don't express your heart cruelly, there is no way for others to cheat!
The Southeast Mansion had strict regulations. Official Hong Xi gave gifts to his boss, which was a bribe! But in this situation, I am really not afraid of others making irresponsible remarks.
The countess had seen the big scene, her face kept silent, while the face of Baron Pablo was slightly happy.
Send charcoal in the snow!
Since the Earl's death, without his legal income and illegal income relying on his power, Baron Pablo has inherited the family business, has difficulties in making a living, and barely maintains the dignity of the nobility.
With so many wealth coming over, the big problem in the family has been solved!
The Countess and Baron Pablo thanked everyone for their kindness!
Official Hong Xi introduced a topic: "The current situation in your country is a bit grim!"
Baron Pablo said indignantly: "Those are the blasphemers who disrespect His Majesty the King!..."
Hearing Hong Xiguan said: "I have a small suggestion~www.wuxiaspot.com~Please tell me!" Baron Pablo said.
"There is an old saying in China called the Three Caves of the Cunning Rabbit, which means that animals make more nests, and we humans make more homes. For example, I think France is very close to the United Kingdom, and France has a strong national strength, and the country is relatively stable; Yes, there are many good officials in front of the king of your country, you may not be able to intervene, you might as well consider the crown prince.” Hong Xiguan implicitly said.
"Thank you, sir!" the countess said with her jaws.
...
After asking the guests to take a break, Lord Chris returned to the living room and was overjoyed with his brother when he saw so much wealth.
However, their mother told them: "This money is going to be used in France and Holland!"
