Xuan Yuemeng smiled and said: "Can someone present our gift now" Stretching out his hand not to hit the smiling person, Li Hongzhang, Wei Tuoma and Luo Shuya were a little speechless to Xuan Yuemeng, they could laugh so brightly Li Hongzhang coughed, and told Sheng Xuanhuai to let people go outside to get Xuan Yuemeng's gift, Sheng Xuanhuai began to hear shouting inside outside the door, and he was still happy, he couldn't wait for Wei Tuma and Luo Shuya to kill Xuan Yuemeng on the spot, but when he came in, he saw that the atmosphere in the room was peaceful, which was called a wonder, a depression.Sheng Xuanhuai received Li Hongzhang's instructions, glanced at Xuan Yuemeng, and came out angrily.Xuan Yuemeng's gift was three pistols with golden handles.This gift is definitely taken, and it does not lose face, it will not be too expensive, it will be flattering, and it will not be too cheap and disrespectful.Although Li Hongzhang is not short of money, this kind of pistol is the latest at first glance, and the workmanship is exquisite, it is not easy to buy, and it must be customized.And the British Minister Wei Tuma and the French Minister Luo Shuya did not have much income, except for a little extra money, normal income, they could not afford to buy such a golden pistol for three years, and the three of them were very surprised by the gift given by Xuan Yuemeng.Li Hongzhang took the pistol, gestured, and put it back in the gift box, "This is a good thing, German goods" Xuan Yuemeng smiled and nodded, "I have long wanted to give it to Zhongtang."
I haven't had the opportunity to have a free time in the middle hall.Today, I happened to come to the governor's yamen, so I brought it. ”Li Hongzhang squinted, didn't make a sound, glanced at Xuan Yuemeng, and then looked at Luo Shuya and Wei Tuma.Loshua and Wittoma were clearly pleased with the gift, and both of them played with it for a while.Li Hongzhang said in his heart, wouldn't it be good if he did this earlier, why do you have to get a fish to die and break the net, Li Hongzhang thought about it, it's useless to do this early, if you don't fight, it won't work after all, and can't help but look at Xuan Yuemeng again, this little person, there will be a burning spirit in his eyes, so Li Hongzhang can't help but sigh that Xuan Yuemeng has many means, can bend and stretch, and still has the mind to achieve great things.Although Li Hongzhang is wary of Xuan Yuemeng, he still admires Xuan Yuemeng's talent, a one-year-old child is already so good, over time, when he becomes an adult, he will be a hero among people.People, it's not a big deal to be crazy, the key is to show your means and talents, so that even if others want to be your enemy, they will treat you as a character and will not despise you.Xuan Yuemeng smiled at Wei Tuma and Luo Shuya and asked, "Are the two ministers still satisfied with the gifts given by our foreign bank, everything is a misunderstanding, just say it."
We, Mr.
Timothy Lee, would like to invite the two ministers and Li Zhongtang to dine at the Xingtaixing Hotel in the British Concession. ”Loshua and Wittoma accepted the gift, thinking to themselves, it was so reconciled, but before the two came here, they did not reach any understanding, and what to do with this newly emerged and rapidly developing Klinsmann foreign company, it was indeed very nerve-wracking, and they did not have a unified understanding.China will certainly not support them to go to war with European countries at will, and if they go along with Klinsmann, they will not only openly tear their faces with Germany, but also with the United States.Loshua and Wittoma looked at each other, but neither spoke, rather hesitant.Now it's Timothy Lee's turn to show his strengths, and he warmly invites Wei Tuma, Luo Shuya and Li Hongzhang, in fact, before coming, Xuan Yuemeng didn't say anything about going to the British Concession for dinner."
Mr.
Two Ministers, as well as Lord Li Zhongtang, please give us a thin noodle for Klinsmann."
Now Xuan Yuemeng is completely fine, following a few people, holding hands with Timothy Lee, looking like a child.When the people led by Li Hongzhang came out, the people from the Beiyang Yamen and the American Patrol Capture Room who were still facing each other outside didn't understand what was going on, and the bigwigs reconciled so quickly and hurriedly came over to hug Young Master Meng.Xuan Yuemeng herself can't figure it out, it was reconciled so quickly In fact, the British and the French were originally here to reconcile today, in fact, as long as Klinsmann was willing to have a soft attitude earlier, it would have been reconciled a long time ago, at least it wouldn't be so stiff, Xuan Yuemeng was a little too strong.British Concession, inside Xingtaixing Hotel.Luo Shuya, Wei Tuma and Timothy Lee were talking and laughing, it seemed that the one who rushed over to beat Timothy Lee just now was not the two people in front of him, Xuan Yuemeng also asked Timothy Lee to invite Hurd, De Xuanlin and McMarfoy of Xingtai Xing to come over, but the three of them have not arrived for the time being.Li Hongzhang and Xuan Yuemeng sat together.Li Hongzhang glanced at Xuan Yuemeng, he was angry and loving to Xuan Yuemeng, the relationship between the two people is now a little delicate, the original degree of Li Hongzhang's love for Xuan Yuemeng is not lost to Zeng Jize, since Xuan Yuemeng was able to help him in eight months, he left a deep and beautiful impression on Xuan Yuemeng.Xuan Yuemeng didn't know what to say to Li Hongzhang, in fact, Xuan Yuemeng had a lot of things to say to Li Hongzhang, he wanted Li Hongzhang to understand his thoughts, after all, if Li Hongzhang gave him a little help casually, it would add a lot of points to his career, but Xuan Yuemeng had concerns, Li Hongzhang was in a high position, and Xuan Yuemeng's impression of Li Hongzhang was not very good, he felt that Li Hongzhang was too greedy for power, not a saint, and by no means for the sake of the country, for the interests of the nation, the kind of person who could sacrifice himself, can only be said to be a very smart minion.Xuan Yuemeng, I don't like minions.Li Hongzhang sighed and asked softly: "Yuemeng, you tell the headquarters to be honest, this Klinsmann foreign company, is it you who opened it, or that foreigner" Xuan Yuemeng glanced at Li Hongzhang in shock, and then looked at Timothy Li, Luo Shuya and Wei Tuma opposite, the three of them obviously didn't care about the conversation between themselves and Li Hongzhang.Xuan Yuemeng smiled and said softly: "Lord Zhongtang, do you still need to ask where I got so much silver, of course, it is the Klinsmann Foreign Company opened by Mr.
Timothy Lee, I am just a translator, Mr.
Timothy Li saw that I did a good job and gave me a hundred percent of the shares." ”In fact, Xuan Yuemeng's setting is very reasonable, in outsiders, there is no flaw at all, Li Hongzhang is just a feeling, he does not insist on his doubts.Li Hongzhang nodded, "This foreigner's appetite is not small, Yuemeng, you can honestly tell the headquarters, this foreigner is spending so much thought in our Daqing, what does he want to do, ordinary foreigners are just for money, he seems to be more than just for money" Xuan Yuemeng didn't know how to answer this question, thought about it a little, and saw how to answer it was reasonable, "He loves our Daqing Kingdom, he wants to help us, don't misunderstand that Mr.
Timothy Li is the kind of ambitious person, you have more contact with him, you will find, He's a kid. ”Li Hongzhang looked at Xuan Yuemeng again, "Yes, he looks like a child, but you look like an adult, Yuemeng, you make me don't know what to say, have you ever thought about taking the imperial examination" Xuan Yuemeng smiled: "I have to take the hospital examination next month, I have already passed the county examination and the government examination, a while ago a group of sour literati questioned my qualifications for the government examination, this matter is so big, you won't know it" Li Hongzhang smiled: "Of course I know about this, I also read the biography of the Condor Heroes you wrote, if you write it again, pay attention, If you are inclined to Song, it will anger the imperial court" Xuan Yuemeng smiled and nodded, "I know, I don't tend to any of them, I just want a historical background, and I don't describe the war." ”Li Hongzhang nodded and said: "Yes, do you know why you didn't seal your book, the headquarters helped you press it down, Zhilin has already gone to the imperial court to participate in you, because you are in the first chapter, writing that the emperor of the Song Dynasty is enough to be the emperor, and writing that the prime minister of the Song Dynasty is a dog official and a corrupt official, which is why you retained the biography of the Condor Heroes." ”Xuan Yuemeng sweated, it turned out that Zhilin really went to join him, in fact, when he began to choose which book to write, Xuan Yuemeng also took a lot of thought, he felt that Lao Jin's political position was originally ambiguous, and now this book has been deeply processed by Xuan Yuewen and Zhao Qingluo, it should not be banned in this era, but I thought that it was still Zhilin ginseng, "Thank you, Lord Zhongtang" Xuan Yuemeng said this, and sincerely thanked Li Hongzhang Li Hongzhang touched Xuan Yuemeng's chubby paws, Li Hongzhang originally loved to hold Xuan Yuemeng's chubby paws, but today this is the first time he has held it.Li Hongzhang: "Yuemeng, I just asked you, whether you really participated in the imperial examination, or is it fun, you haven't answered me yet, have you ever thought about contributing to the imperial court in the future" Xuan Yuemeng smiled: "Of course it's sincere, otherwise what I will do if I don't win the Xiucai in the county examination and the government examination, Uncle Zeng will divorce me." ”Li Hongzhang said with a smile: "I also know this, I'm just afraid that you are not for being an official, not for the sake of contributing to the imperial court, just for the agreement between you and your great-uncle to take the imperial examination, do you know that I very much hope that you can be admitted to Xiucai this time, my Daqing country's scientific field has not been so sensational for a long time, there are champions in their twenties, and people in their teens, if there is another one-year-old Xiucai, it will let everyone in the world know that my scientific examination in the Qing Dynasty is not very difficult, and it will give more people hope." ”Xuan Yuemeng nodded, he understood this, but he already had a very clear understanding of the scientific examination system in the late Qing Dynasty, he knew that the success rate of his talent in this examination was not even one-tenth, and he didn't dare to say anything big about Li Hongzhang, "I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint Zhongtang, my learning is very poor." ”t1706231537:
