Chapter 745: Eating hot pot and proposing marriage


The difference in strength between the two sides is too great, it is not a level at all, and there is naturally no surprise in the war.There are more than 10,000 Huaxing troops.In their heyday, they had more than 30,000 regular bureaus and 50,000 militiamen, and they were not opponents, let alone facing an attack by an army of 30,000.Both Bruce and West made the wrong chips, and they both insisted as they deserved, but no reinforcements were sent from within the UK.After the battle, the Huaxing army gained a lot.First of all, there are a large number of food supplies for foreign devils, as well as more than 100,000 foreign women in two states, and more importantly, the gold mines everywhere here are now completely controlled by the Huaxing army.Gold can be used as money when it is dug up, and it will have an impact on the finances of other countries.If it is allowed to be mined by merchants, if it flows into New China, it will immediately cause a currency devaluation.Therefore, the gold mines must be controlled in the hands of New China, and even the government of New China has no right to deal with them.As for the 100,000 foreign women, Qiao Zhiqing had arranged it before the battle.All soldiers stationed in New China can choose to stay in New China or return to New China after their service expires.If you stay in New China, the government is responsible for the distribution of land, and it is responsible for the marriage of each soldier.Either the new Huaxia government will find you a daughter-in-law, or you can find a daughter-in-law to pay for it yourself.Among these 100,000 foreign women, more than half of them are young or young women, who happened to be left for welfare after the expiration of their service in the Huaxing Army.For other elderly women, Hua Xingjun did not embarrass them, but still gave them freedom.A group of widows, Chen Yucheng is not worried about what big waves they will make.People are under the eaves and have to bow their heads.Australia's national defense has been handed over to the Huaxing Army, and Shi Dakai naturally has nothing to say.All his soldiers and horses were disbanded, scattered in the three states to work as farmers and workers, and now he is really a bare-bones commander.He didn't dare to touch the interests of Hua Xingjun, and honestly became the prime minister of a state.This place was originally built by others, and the interests of the gold mine naturally belonged to them.After reading the military newspaper, Qiao Zhiqing put pen to paper and asked the Ministry of National Defense to officially order Chen Yu to be appointed as the first governor of New China and the first commander-in-chief of the New China Military Region, in charge of the three-way army of the military region.He is very satisfied with the pair of Chen Yucheng and Shi Dakai, both of whom belong to the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and it is easy to cooperate together.But both of them were once crowned kings of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and their arrogant personalities are destined to be impossible to treat each other sincerely.In this way, the military and the civil administration supervise each other and depend on each other, so that a true balance of power can be achieved.In order to prevent the governors of various states from having too much power and having the heart of self-reliance, Qiao Zhiqing also asked the Ministry of Defense to study the policy of exchanging governors.The governor of each state shall be appointed for a term of three years.After three years, the governors of the states will rotate.In this way, there is no fear of any governor who will be able to support his own army.Even if they have troops, they don't have that military spending, which can be in the hands of the local prime minister.It is basically impossible for a governor to unify so many interests in three years.After Wei Ziyou took the military report, he quickly sent it to the Ministry of National Defense.In the afternoon, she and Qiao Zhiqing still had to attend a meeting of the Ministry of National Defense, so they stayed in the study for lunch.Qiao Zhiqing's food here seems ordinary, but each dish is made by the imperial chef in the former palace, and it tastes like it has its own.Wei Ziyou didn't eat here for no reason, after all, she couldn't eat this delicacy in the cafeteria.The heavy snow outside is still falling non-stop, and it has been falling intermittently for a day yesterday, and now the ground is covered with a thick layer.Today happened to be Sunday, and Qiao Zhiqing was tired of eating anything, so he just asked the back kitchen to make a charcoal hot pot and ate it on the round table in the study.Min Ziying, Li Yueru and Tian Runye were also called over, as well as Yan Zhili from the guest hall, and the six of them gathered around the table.Qiao Zhiqing usually likes to be lively when he eats, so that he can feel a little home, so he is also happy to eat with these little girls.Of the five beauties present, Wei Ziyou is the oldest, and the others are still little girls under the age of sixteen.However, when it comes to appearance, they have their own merits, and they don't have any impact because of age.When women are together, there are more conversations.Especially Min Ziying, who is a lively person, can't stop her small mouth with delicious food."

Sister Ziyou, when are you going to marry Uncle Qiao, we are all waiting to drink your wedding wine" Min Ziying added a piece of mutton, looked at Wei Ziyou and asked quirkily, and the other girls also laughed non-stop."

I hate it, let's eat your meal" Wei Ziyou's face turned red when he heard this, and he added a piece of tofu and stuffed it into Min Ziying's mouth.When Min Ziying first arrived in China, everything was handled by Wei Ziyou, so she always treated Wei Ziyou as her own sister.The two of them are not as restrained as other girls together, and they whisper non-stop in their daughter's house in private.After all, Min Ziying was born in a Korean aristocracy, and he doesn't have so much inferiority, and he can get along with anyone, and he will not be affected by his identity at all.Qiao Zhiqing also smiled awkwardly, and then remembered what he had promised Wei Ziyou.Now that this girl is old, it will not be good for others to drag it out.So he took the opportunity to say bluntly to her, "Ziyou, since Ziying asked about this matter, then we have to find time to talk about this problem" "What kind of problem" Wei Ziyou pretended not to know and lowered his head, and his pretty face turned even redder.My heart was like a deer jumping around, but I didn't expect Qiao Zhiqing to talk about it so directly today."

Of course it's to marry Uncle Qiao" "Sister Ziyou, you can promise us Uncle Qiao" "Sister Ziyou, congratulations" "Other little girls have coaxed, at their age, they are most interested in these things of love and love.Since Wei Ziyou became Qiao Zhiqing's secretary, he only pretended to be this man in his heart.Exactly six years had passed, and the man had finally mentioned his promise.The excitement in Wei Ziyou's heart can be imagined, and he squeezed out tears happily for a while.A pretty face seems to be crying and laughing, very cute and charming."

I'm sorry, this hot pot is too spicy, I'll wash my face" She hurriedly took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears, walked out of the study and went to the bathroom, hiding her mouth in the mirror of the sink and smirking.The bathroom in Qiao Zhiqing's small courtyard, but he designed it himself, which is very similar to the style of a five-star hotel in later generations.There is no concept of a bathroom in this world, let alone a flush toilet.But as long as there are drawings, there is no shortage of such skilled craftsmen in New China."

I hate it, just eat, what do you say about marriage" Wei Ziyou muttered to himself in the mirror, crying and laughing for a while, it was difficult to control the excitement in his heart, and his face was red for a long time, and he didn't know how to face Qiao Zhiqing
