Signing in the Republic of China: starting from a foot patrol

Chapter 148 Beauty in the traditional sense

After making up his mind, Lin Hongfei took out a pen and paper, wrote his plan in detail into a letter, and mailed it to Qian Minghe.

The old man has been in the ups and downs of his career for decades, and he has also served as a local military and political chief. He can be described as rich in experience and good-natured.

Lin Hongfei wanted to hear Qian Minghe's opinion, so as to adjust his plan again.

Not long after, Lin Hongfei received a reply from Qian Minghe. The letter was very thick, and it seemed that Qian Minghe had written a lot.

Lin Hongfei couldn't wait to open the letter, and then found a secluded place to study it carefully.

In the reply, Qian Minghe very much agreed with Lin Hongfei's idea of ​​going to Lu Province to develop in the early days, and he also pointed out that the foreigners in Lu Province are relatively powerful, especially the Dongying people.

The hatred between Lin Hongfei and the Dongying people is not only a deep hatred, it is simply a deep hatred.

Therefore, it is okay to recruit troops and build up a team in Lu Province.

If they want to take root in Lu Province for a long time, the Dongying people will definitely make trouble secretly.

Therefore, Qian Minghe suggested that after Lin Hongfei has a battalion of troops, he can start to lay down a territory of his own.

Lingnan Province

This is one of Qian Minghe's choices for Lin Hongfei.

Lingnan Province is a newly divided province when the domestic administrative region was redefined after the Republic of China.

It is connected to southern Shaanxi in the north and the Yangtze River in the south, with convenient waterways.

There are high mountain passes in the east and west, and the pass in the east leads to the western part of Henan and western Hubei.

In addition, Lingnan Province is equivalent to digging out a piece of land from each of the original provinces, and then patching them together. The counties and cities are relatively loose, and there is no overly strong local force inside.

Therefore, this area is the most suitable place for Lin Hongfei!

After reading the letter, Lin Hongfei couldn't help admiring the old man. He was still thinking about where to take root in the future, and the old man pointed out the place for himself.

How else can an old family be like a treasure!

The old man's decades of military and political experience can be said to be very valuable!

······

The boring and monotonous life in the military academy is slow to say, but also fast to say. With the arrival of the annual vacation, Lin Hongfei embarked on the train to Lu Province.

This time, he was going there to make an engagement with a girl he had never met.

Although Wu Yongquan repeatedly emphasized that his younger sister was first-class and beautiful, Lin Hongfei looked at Wu Yongquan's appearance and was seriously skeptical about it.

After Ma Yuechuan and Huanxi knew that Lin Hongfei was going to Lu Province to get engaged, they wanted to join in the fun no matter what.

"You two went to Lu Province with me, didn't you take a detour to go home!" Lin Hongfei said.

Ma Yuechuan waved his hand: "Hey, what's the detour, take the boat directly from Qingcheng to the sea, the time is not much different!"

Having said that, Lin Hongfei remembered that there is also a sea route between Lu Province and Fengtian, and the speed is not much slower than the train.

"Success, let the four of us go on the road together!" Lin Hongfei laughed.

"Ah, bah bah bah, is it okay to say that?" Lively shouted from the side.

From Baoding to Lu Province, the journey was somewhat troublesome. The four of them first arrived in Anqiu by train. Originally, Lin Hongfei planned to go to Dingxianglou for another meal, and by the way, he slapped Jia Guier and his wife.

But time was somewhat tight, so Lin Hongfei could only temporarily give up this idea, rented a carriage and drove towards Lu Province.

It was freezing cold, and the four of them sat in the carriage, taking out the flagon from time to time, and sipping a sip or two of small wine to warm up their bodies.

Although the journey is a bit far away, Lin Hongfei and Wu Yongquan are not boring as companions.

A few days later, the four of them arrived at Wu Yongquan's hometown after a tiring journey, and the future son-in-law came to visit. Naturally, the Wu family warmly welcomed them and received them attentively.

According to etiquette, Lin Hongfei should have elders to follow him, but Lin Hongfei is the only one left in the Lin family. As for some blood relatives, they are also scattered or gone.

Qian Minghe and Chen Fengchang worked in the capital and didn't have time to come here, so this matter fell on Xu Chengping, the chairman of the Qingcheng Chamber of Commerce.

Since he helped Lin Hongfei solve the purchase of the factory last time, Lin Hongfei would send some gifts every new year and festival, so the relationship between the two parties is naturally very harmonious.

Therefore, when he learned that Lin Hongfei wanted to be engaged to the Wu family in Penglai and needed an elder to accompany him, Xu Chengping agreed without hesitation, and he was responsible for all engagement matters, so Lin Hongfei didn't have to worry about it at all.

Not only him, but also Chen Shouting, Lu Jiaju and others who opened factories in Qingcheng also rushed over to support Lin Hongfei!

Therefore, Lin Hongfei's engagement banquet was still very lively.

"Mr. Lin's best friend, Mr. Chen Shouting, general manager of Qingcheng Jinxiu Dyeing Factory, sent a congratulatory gift!"

"Mr. Lin's best friend, Zhangdian Lu's family and Mr. Lu Jiaju sent congratulatory gifts!"

"Huantai Miao's family, Mr. Miao Handong sent congratulatory letters and gifts!"

"The Zhao family in Boshan, Mr. Zhao Dongchu sent a congratulatory gift!"

"Mr. Sun Mingzu, chairman of Qingcheng Yuanheng Dyeing Factory, sent congratulatory letters and gifts!"

"Qingcheng Heyou Trading Co., Ltd. sent a congratulatory gift..."

With the sound of shouting, the Wu family dared not look down on Lin Hongfei, the new son-in-law.

The guests of the man's party are either rich families from all over the country, or rich people who run factories, businesses, and trade in the city.

Of course, the most important thing is those big families. Although these people don't have a lot of money in their hands to do business, they are the group of people who really have the right to speak in Lu Province.

It is conceivable that Lin Hongfei has the means to establish a relationship with such a group of people.

Therefore, the Wu family paid more and more attention to Lin Hongfei, the future son-in-law.

At the engagement banquet, Lin Hongfei finally saw his unmarried bride.

When he saw the bride for the first time, four words came to Lin Hongfei's mind: "The mistress of the house!"

The bride's appearance was neither Ou Xiaoyu's glamorous beauty, nor Chen Mei's delicate jasper. Her appearance was a dignified and classical beauty in the traditional sense, coupled with a taller figure.

But whoever dresses neatly and sits there is the demeanor of a headed lady.

At this moment, Wu Yongquan came over and said drunkenly, "Hongfei, you got a bargain!"

"Not long after my sister was born, my father invited the famous Zhou Banxian to come over and have a fortune telling."

"Zhou Banxian'er said that my younger sister is the most wealthy and prosperous, and whoever marries her will be a beggar and will become a powerful person in the future."

"Hongfei, your kid's luck lies in the future!"

"Come on, have a drink!"

Men in Lu Province can drink, so Lin Hongfei, the new son-in-law, cannot be easily let go. He must let the new son-in-law feel the enthusiasm of the people of Lu Province!

So, after a round of fighting, even Lin Hongfei, who had a good drinker, fell under the table.

Seeing this, Ma Yuechuan and Huanxi wanted to slip away, but they were stopped by Wu Yongquan holding the wine jar:

"Yuechuan, it's lively, I know, both of your ancestors crossed the Guandong, and your ancestral home is in our Lu province."

"Today is considered to be back to the ancestral land, come, drink more!"

Not long after, the two of them were lying under the table with Lin Hongfei.
