Chapter 369: Arrival and Departure (Part 2)


Chapter Sixty, Arrival and Departure Part Two "Xiaoxue, Xiaoxue, have you packed your luggage?

Come on down quickly.

The car is already parked at the door."

Just as Jin Lingxue was lying on the window sill, overlooking the street scene of Lingao, where she was about to say goodbye forever, the greeting from Li Mei, the old lady of the Ming family, came from outside the door.

"Okay, we're coming over here."

Jin Lingxue jumped up quickly, grabbed her luggage bag and her father's urn and ran out.

"Hurry, hurry, hurry.

I'm waiting for you.

There is only one bus every day at eight o'clock in the morning.

If you miss it, you will be in big trouble."

At the same time, the hoarse voice of Navy Admiral Ming Qiu also sounded, causing Jin Lingxue to speed up her pace.

Now Jin Lingxue has moved out of the dormitory of Fangcaodi College and is temporarily living with the Ming family of four, an old couple and their son and daughter-in-law in the Bairencheng Elder Apartment.

Her father unfortunately died in the war, and Fangcaodi College has not yet During the initial period of establishment, Jin Lingxue stayed in their home for a while, and the few relics left by her father were also stored in the Ming family, and she had to take them with her when she went home.

Moreover, this time she was able to go back with the four members of the Ming family.

She had some kind of caretakers on the way.

Similar to Jin Lingxue's situation, the four members of the Ming family also involuntarily traveled to the late Ming Dynasty, and they were like the old ones.

Compared to Jin Lingxue, whose father was cheated by her father, the reason is even more cheating: When the "Fengcheng Ship" cargo ship aboard the Lingao Crossing Group opened a wormhole in the Qiongzhou Strait in the modern world and traveled through time and space, the four members of the Ming family: father Mingqiu, mother Li Mei, son Minglang, and daughter-in-law Mu Min, a family of four happened to be traveling to Hainan.

Because the old man Mingqiu had served in the Navy's South China Sea Fleet for many years and was familiar with the troops in Hainan.

So I didn't buy a ticket when I crossed the Qiongzhou Strait.

I borrowed an old motorboat from an old acquaintance in the army, hoping to relive my old dream of sailing.

Unexpectedly, when we were approaching Bobu Port, we suddenly encountered a strange storm, and then the motorboat a family of four was riding on was inexplicably involved in the Lingao of the late Ming Dynasty together with the "Fengcheng Wheel" Now it's great, what was originally a family trip to Hainan has become a permanent trip to Lingao in the Ming Dynasty.

The four members of the Ming family are very depressed about this - those crazy time travelers want to come to the Ming Dynasty to work hard, but their family can't do it at all.

I have no such plan But no matter how depressed they feel, it can't change the cruel reality that the whole family has traveled through ancient times and has no way to return.

In desperation, although they remained silent from morning to night at first, within a few days, they integrated into the Lingao Crossing Group half-heartedly and half-heartedly, and began to work, and all of them soon became successful in officialdom.

Hanging up a bunch of dazzling titles.

My daughter-in-law, Mu Min, was originally a policewoman and was from the Li ethnic group.

She understood the languages ​​and customs of the ethnic minorities, so she became the ethnic adviser, the head of the Li and Miao Office of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the director of the Dongmen Police Station.

She was in charge of several people.

A hundred people are full of authority.

The old lady Li Min is a very passionate social activist in the modern world.

Within a few days after arriving in Lingao, she became familiar with the female fellow travelers and fooled them into jointly establishing a women's cooperative.

Now it has been officially Became Vice Minister of Commerce and Director of Dongmen City Management Office She is also the director of the Hainan Women's Cooperative.

After several years of rapid development, the women's cooperative, which initially only sold rags and trophies, has become the largest department store chain under the jurisdiction of the Traveler Senate, with stores in Taiwan, Hong Kong and Vietnam.

There is a branch in Kidu As for the old man Mingqiu, a model old party member and the old People's Navy, his official career in the seventeenth century was even more extraordinary.

Because he was a rare professional naval talent among time-travelers, he actually rose to the rank of Naval Personnel Commissioner, Rear Admiral, and Ocean Fleet.

The high-ranking subordinates of the general counsel and commander of the Navy's First Fleet even own a steam-powered fleet that is unique on the East Asian seas.

Everyone respects him as "Admiral Ming".

In the past two years, the old and strong Admiral Ming has exerted his second spring in life, leading his Senate fleet that surpassed the times to conquer the east and west, sweeping across the Pearl River, bombarding Guangzhou, sneak attacks on Fujian, fighting in Anping, annihilating the Zheng family, and conducting expeditions Japan defeated countless enemies in the smoke of gunfire, which can be said to be a great martial arts and a famous one.

Finally, the old man made up for the regret of not being able to catch up with the Nansha naval battle when he was serving.

No matter what, as long as you are a true soldier, you will be eager to prove your worth on the battlefield, right?

The only person who is more disappointed is his coward son Minglang.

Compared with his mother, father and wife who have achieved great success in their careers and are living an increasingly comfortable life, he is too timid to fight in battle, so he did not join the army.

Minglang, who only found a position in the organization, can be described as a loser in life.

Although he has some power and position, compared with his father, the "number one man in the navy", he is not worth mentioning at all.

Therefore, not only among the time-travelers, but also among the naturalized people, there are also scattered " The rumor that the Ming family is really like a tiger father and a dog son made him very depressed.

Originally, if nothing unexpected happened, the four members of the Ming family might have continued to live like this, eventually becoming one of the most powerful "military and political families" in the Senate.

However, the accident happened without warning.

The arrival of the People's Liberation Army airship fleet, as well as the successive visits of previous central leaders, and the even more incredible black technology of the 22nd century that was subsequently displayed in front of them, rearranged the life plans of the four members of the Ming family in this time and space. , exploded to pieces again After learning that he could return to the modern world, Minglang, who had long been tired of waiting in this time and space, naturally clamored to go back.

My daughter-in-law Mu Min is just an ordinary policeman in the modern world, but here she is the chief of the police station in charge of hundreds of people, so she is somewhat reluctant to let go.

However, the living conditions in the Ming Dynasty were so poor that even high-end shower gel and cosmetics were not available.

No, after giving birth to a child in the future, the education and future are also very problematic, even the issue of having a child Guandu is very dangerous.

There are not even professional obstetricians and gynecologists here in Lingao.

As for the unhygienic midwives of the native Ming Dynasty, modern women are even more frightened.

In addition, they also have to worry about their husbands being raped by those Ming Dynasty men who had three wives and four concubines.

He led the time-travelers into trouble, and also brought his "mistress" home to fight with him, so he finally nodded and agreed to go back.

Although the old lady Li Mei is a little reluctant to give up the women's cooperative she worked hard to run here, she also has many relatives and friends in the modern world, and has also opened a small supermarket and a club for the elderly.

She is also reluctant to give up.

In the end, the government The Special Committee "Special Area Development Committee", referred to as the Special Committee, is actually a different world.

After learning about the situation, the Colonial Ministry sent people to come to the door and said that the central government was building Sanya New City in the late Ming Dynasty as a medical rest center with supporting facilities.

A small supermarket for daily groceries is also under preparation.

Because Mrs.

Li Mei has rich business experience in this time and space, she might as well go to Sanya to work as a supermarket manager for a while.

This will not only give her an opportunity to see the modern world, but also allow her to make a transition as to whether to leave or stay in the future. and time to think.

So, Mrs.

Li Mei resigned from the Lingao Senate, asked for her share of the dividends, and the Senate reluctantly took out a sum of gold, then packed her luggage and went to Sanya New City to work for the central leadership.

The old man Mingqiu is the most reluctant to leave this world.

He is just a retired veteran cadre who receives retirement salary and waits for death.

He has never made any achievements on the battlefield in his life and can only play naval battle games on the computer.

Come and have fun.

But here, he can lead a "powerful" steam-sail-hybrid modern fleet to conquer all directions, and is invincible.

It can roam the entire Eastern Sea.

Although it cannot deal with the Russian landing ships in Vladivostok, it can definitely defeat any other opponent. .

The smell of steel, gunpowder and gunpowder smoke, as well as the roar of the explosion and the cry of victory, all made him extremely addicted.

However, for an elderly person, the living conditions in the seventeenth century were relatively poor after all.

If he contracted any chronic disease, he would have to live long and wait for death.

Can he live to be seventy years old?

It's hard to say.

Moreover, if the whole family returned to the modern world and he was left alone as an old man to play war games, Admiral Mingqiu would definitely feel lonely.

However, just when Admiral Mingqiu felt endless hesitation and entanglement in his heart, the "Special Area Development Committee" also extended an olive branch to him and invited him to go to Sanya to serve as a naval consultant.

This is not a temporary job, but a regular national job. prepared by.

In addition, Comrade Wang Tiechui, the captain of the 10,000-ton modern smart sailing ship "COSCO Star", is now eager to return home.

He is clamoring to go home immediately and refuses to go to Australia to retrieve the remaining victims. .

Therefore, as soon as Admiral Mingqiu passes by, he will be able to take over as the captain of the "Cosco Star".

Such favorable conditions finally made Mingqiu a little tempted.

He was also a naval consultant.

Instead of helping Lingao and other young people fool around, he might as well work directly for the central leadership.

Moreover, a modern all-metal sailboat with tens of thousands of tons is more enjoyable to drive than a wooden steamship with hundreds of tons or thousands of tons, not to mention that it may come into contact with the existing advanced weapons of the People's Liberation Army, and even those of the 22nd century.

Black technology equipment.

What excites Mr.

Mingqiu the most is that if he goes to Sanya to serve as a naval advisor, the country will not only restore him to active duty in the navy, but also officially grant him the rank of regimental colonel, which is the regular military rank of a world superpower, equivalent to The rank of captain of a guided missile destroyer or captain of a large supply ship of over 10,000 tons is much more valuable than the self-proclaimed general or marshal of the time traveler.

For Mr.

Mingqiu, a model old party member and the old People's Navy, this is simply an irresistible temptation.

Therefore, the four members of the Ming family left the Lingao Crossing Group and decided to jump to Sanya to "follow the party and the country."

As for whether this family should return to the modern world in the end, well, let’s wait until a decision has to be made.

On the other hand, as far as the country is concerned, awarding Comrade Mingqiu a colonel rank casually like this must be a serious violation of the usual organizational procedures.

But strictly speaking, apart from doing special things, there is no suspicion of "indiscriminately awarding famous weapons".

After all, Mr.

Mingqiu is already so old.

Even if he eventually returns to the modern world, he will definitely have to retire directly.

In fact, it is just to let Mingqiu enjoy the treatment of retired colonel.

The social security department needs to pay an extra retirement salary for this.

It does not take anyone's seat at all, and it does not hinder anyone's official career.

In addition to Mingqiu, there are many other time-travelers who have also been poached by the state to find new jobs, which makes the leaders of major time-travel groups extremely depressed.

Closer to home, at this moment, under the apartment building, there is already parked a ten-seater convertible electric sightseeing car.

This electric sightseeing car is also one of the "aid materials" recently distributed by the central government.

It was received by the Lingao Senate.

The treasure land is used for urban transportation: although compared with cars, this thing is slow and has a small load capacity, but it is much stronger than the original ox cart, and urban transportation does not require much speed. .

What's more important is that compared with the fuel reserves that are getting smaller every time they are used, the power supply here in Lingao is relatively sufficient.

There are several power plants in Lingao County, but the oil fields closest to Lingao are far away in Borneo across the South China Sea.

Seeing Jin Lingxue, a half-grown lolita, skipping out of the stairs with her heavy luggage, the young couple from the Ming family quickly grabbed her luggage and put it in the car.

At the same time, they gave her a paper bag with breakfast and cereals inside.

Noodle pancake fruit, coated with rich spicy sauce and sweet noodle sauce.

Although because of this Eggs in time and space are rare and expensive, so there are no eggs in the cake.

The taste is not as good as the original version in modern time and space, but it is still both satisfying and satisfying.

Whether it is time travelers, naturalized people or natives from other places, they are very welcome to this thing.

Of course, if it is made again It will be even more delicious if paired with a bowl of tofu pudding or soy milk.

Sitting on this very lightweight open-top electric sightseeing car, Jin Lingxue chewed the steaming pancake fruit while watching Mu Min drive the electric car carefully and slowly leave at a speed of ten kilometers per hour.

Bairen City, located on the high ground, immediately appeared in front of a large area of ​​sparkling water.

For defense reasons, Bairen City, where travelers live, is surrounded by water and is surrounded by a large artificial lake and a moat.

In addition to isolating the outside world and beautifying the environment, the artificial lake also functions as a reservoir. , used to store water in the rainy season and supply water in the dry season, and built supporting channels and gates.

Various trees were planted along the lake, flower beds were arranged, and a number of benches were arranged.

If it weren't for the barbed wire fences and watchtowers set up by the security camp on the other side of the lake, as well as the sentries with live ammunition, it would have looked like a city park.

Next to the artificial lake, a tall building made of red bricks is built, and next to it stands a very unsightly chimney - this is actually a water tower.

Water from the Bairentan Waterworks is transported here through pipelines, and then A steam engine continuously pumps water to the water tank on the top of the tower, so as to ensure that the apartment buildings on the highlands can obtain the minimum water supply pressure.

This steam engine and matching boiler are installed in the corner farthest from the residential area to ensure that if this thing breaks down and explodes, it will not harm others.

Although they were just crude and backward-looking facilities with no beauty or imposing appearance, Jin Lingxue still took pictures of them one by one with her smartphone as a souvenir.

Then she noticed the progress of the electric sightseeing car.

Something seems wrong about the direction.

"Hey Uncle Ming, Aunt Mu, shouldn't we go to the new train station?

Why should we drive the car in this direction?"

"This is the last mission sent by the Senate.

I hope we can take Liu Dalin to the train station by the way."

While Minglang used a stick to drive away a naughty child who came to touch the car, he explained to Jin Lingxue, "Ever since this guy's leg healed, he has been clamoring to go to the Australian Emperor to thank him for his grace, so this time Let him take the train with us to Sanya."

"Oh, that's right."

Jin Lingxue nodded as if understanding, "It's best to hurry up and don't miss the train."

Liu Dalin, a native of the Ming Dynasty, was the first Jinshi in Lingao County and the mountain chief of Molixuan Academy.

Therefore, although he was paralyzed in the lower body, had difficulty moving, and had no hope of becoming an official, he still had a very special character in the late Ming Dynasty when culture was valued over military affairs.

Strong local influence.

At the beginning of the time when the time travelers landed, Liu Dalin once advocated resistance to the "Kun thieves".

After being defeated by the time travellers, this Jinshi master was once ashamed to see people and stayed behind closed doors ever since.

But as time went by, and the time travelers continued to bring various good changes to this remote county, Liu Dalin, as an "enlightened gentry", finally gradually recognized their governance achievements, and his attitude changed from "anti-kun" Becoming a "pro-kun" has driven the public opinion trend among the people to a considerable extent, allowing the time traveler Senate to further consolidate its rule over Lingao.

When the People's Liberation Army airships arrived on Hainan Island, and the central government's "Veteran Cadres Rehabilitation Center" was opened in Lingao County in the late Ming Dynasty, a certain "Australian and Song Dynasty imperial doctor" occasionally had nothing to do, and under the advice of the Lingao Crossing Group , used the automatic medical kit to treat Liu Dalin, and actually allowed Liu Dalin, who had been paralyzed for many years, to stand up again.

But now, It really made Liu Jinshi burst into tears of gratitude, and he became a die-hard loyalist of "Ausong" from then on.

Not only did he set up a memorial tablet at home and burn incense to thank the "Ausong Court" for its restoration, but he also pestered the veteran Lingao time traveler he knew all day long, saying that he was I'm going to find the "Australian King" to thank him for his divine grace.

I hope the "chiefs" can introduce him to him.

I feel like he has the intention of recommending himself to join me.

Therefore, the Lingao Crossing Group reported the matter without any fuss.

It happened that the central government also felt it was necessary to get in touch with the feedback from all walks of life, so they asked the four members of the Ming family who were preparing to report to Sanya to report the matter.

Liu Dalin, a "civilian representative", was also brought here.

In addition, many various characters will appear on this bus bound for Sanya.

For example, Xu Xiake, the famous "No. 1 donkey passenger in the late Ming Dynasty" and his clan brother Xu Zhongzhao, as well as several Ming Dynasty scholars with direct Confucianism, are sitting in the waiting hall of the new train station at the moment, carrying or With expressions of curiosity or disdain, he looked at the various new gadgets inside.

At the same time, several other Ming Dynasty spies employed by different employers were also waiting in the waiting hall to take the bus to Sanya to "spy on the enemy."

There is even an envoy from Japan who is following the world-famous General Huangshi and is about to board a train to Sanya to "see" oshow7:
