Chapter 500: In-Depth Discussion
Seemingly seeing the strange look in Gao Yuan's eyes, Ye Jing'er smiled shyly, waving her palms and vigorously patting the lint on her body, but she couldn't pat it clean. Finally, she gave up this meaningless task. Action, the next moment, she returned to the little girl Gao Yuan was familiar with, floating up like a cloud, running to Gao Yuan's side, opening her arms, and hugging Gao Yuan tightly.
When she hugged that strong body tightly, the weakness that had been deeply hidden by her during this period suddenly burst out. She buried her head in Gao Yuan's arms and burst into tears. Trembling violently, like a very frightened kitten, it shrank down, wishing that the whole person could be melted into Gao Yuan's arms.
Gently patting Ye Jing'er's back, Gao Yuan understood Ye Jing'er's mood at this moment. From the Jiang family, he knew what Ye Jing'er bravely did that night. At this moment, in his mind, Ye Jing'er, dressed in white robes, walked calmly on the streets of Jishi City. Behind her, countless people of Jishi City were holding sticks, swords, guns, and stones, and they were walking towards the city wall. scene.
The rumbling war drums and the figure beating the drums like a fairy coming to earth inspired many people to fight to the last moment that night.
"Okay, everything will be fine." He said softly.
"I'm scared!" Ye Jing'er said in a weak voice.
"With me here, you don't have to be afraid anymore. From now on, you don't have to be afraid anymore." Looking at Ye Jing'er's tearful face, Gao Yuan's heart suddenly throbbed. He didn't know what Ye Jing'er would do if she knew about the death of Mr. and Mrs. Ye.
He did not immediately bring Ye Feng to see Ye Jing'er, but handed Ye Feng to Ye Zhen first, and he planned to talk to Ye Jing'er first.
"Why is there so much wool on my body?" Gao Yuan asked curiously as he reached out to pluck a few strands of wool from Ye Jing'er's hair.
Ye Jing'er held Gao Yuan's hand. Walking towards the house, he said as he walked: "Everyone in the city is working and contributing to your Jishi City, but I don't know what to do. I often stand high in the house and watch the busy work When I was a common people, I felt a little ashamed. Later, Lian'er told me that I could spin and weave. So I took out some money and entrusted Wu Kai to build such a workshop for me, and recruited some women to spin threads together. Weaving." She looked up at Gao Yuan. He said proudly: "We have already woven more than a dozen pieces of cloth."
"You are so awesome!" He looked at Ye Jing'er's bulging cheeks, and there were still undried tears on them. This war had not only changed the situation of the Yan Kingdom, but also his future path. Changed the fate of countless people.
Ye Jing'er was not that aloof in the first place. An aristocratic woman who doesn't like the fireworks of the world, her hardship since she was a child has given her a stronger heart than ordinary people.
Her actions may have been unintentional, but for Gao Yuan. This is a very good thing, and it will be extremely helpful for him to gather the hearts of people in Jishi City.
Ye Jing'er may not have thought of this level yet, but Wu Kai, Ye Zhen and the others must have thought of it, so they didn't stop it.
Walking into the room, Ye Jing'er quickly made a cup of hot tea for Gao Yuan. The girls around her had gone to the workshop and did not come back with them at this time, so she could only experience it in person, "You drink first." Tea, I'm going to wash my woolen clothes first." Looking at Gao Yuan, she smiled sweetly.
Gao Yuan held her hand and said, "Jing'er, I have something to tell you. Don't leave yet."
Ye Jing'er tilted her head, "What's the matter? You'd better wait for me to wash it and change clothes. Don't let the wool get on your body."
Gao Yuan shook his head, "No, Jing'er, this matter is very big. I hope you are mentally prepared."
Looking at Gao Yuan's serious face, Ye Jing'er's expression gradually became serious, and she looked at Gao Yuan uneasily, "Brother Gao, what's wrong?"
"Ye Feng has arrived at Jishi City, and now he is with General Ye Zhen!" Gao Yuan said softly.
"Ye Feng is here!" A look of surprise suddenly appeared on Ye Jing'er's face, "Where is he? Brother, you are really scared of me. He came to see me. This is a good thing!"
Gao Yuan didn't speak, just looked at her quietly. Slowly, Ye Jing'er came back to her senses, "Ye Feng is serving his parents. Some time ago, I heard Mr. Jiang say that there might be trouble in Langya County. At this time, he is not with his parents, why is he here?"
Her body trembled, and a look of fear suddenly appeared on her face, "Brother Gao, did something happen to my father and mother?"
Gao Yuan gently pressed her shoulders, "Jing'er, I hope you can be stronger. My father-in-law and mother-in-law are no longer here."
Staring into Gao Yuan's eyes, Ye Jing'er's eyes were a little confused, "Gone? Where did you go?"
"The two elders have passed away!" Gao Yuan said slowly.
Ye Jing'er blinked and stared at Gao Yuan's face, her lips moved slightly, as if she was thinking about the meaning of Gao Yuan's words, and Gao Yuan also stared into her eyes.
Her legs suddenly softened, and Ye Jing'er slipped to the ground. Gao Yuan, who was already on guard, hugged her.
At the gate of the city, Jiang Jiaquan said that he wanted to have a good night's sleep. In fact, with his current position, it was impossible for him to have a good rest. He had just settled down, and Wu Kai and Cao Tiancheng had already joined hands. Come. Looking at the two of them, Jiang Jiaquan couldn't help but reveal a wry smile, "You two, can't you let me have a good rest before coming back?"
Wu Kai and Cao Tiancheng both laughed. During this period, everyone in Jishi City was busy. Wu Kai was responsible for the operation of the entire Jishi City and the recovery after the war, while Cao Tiancheng was While dealing with the gains from this battle and the mountain of supplies and equipment, the materials prepared by the Yan State for the 100,000-strong army are now in the hands of the Eastern Expeditionary Army. A large number of these materials are needed by the Eastern Expeditionary Army and Jishi City. The other unused parts were sold to Sihai Trading, who handled the sales. Like Wu Kai, the two of them could rest for at most one or two hours a day. Above their eyes, there were dark The eye circles are particularly eye-catching.
"You are the chief official. If you don't approve many official documents, we can't do anything!" Wu Kai handed over a thick stack of official documents with a smile. Cao Tiancheng also took out a stack with tacit understanding and exchanged it with Wu Kai's. In one place.
Jiang Jiaquan couldn't help but lament. However, both Wu Kai and Cao Tiancheng could tell that this lament was not sadness, but a kind of happiness from the heart that only they could understand.
They are not afraid of having something to do. Don't be afraid of too many things. Just be afraid of having nothing to do. Happy are those who have something to do. It's fulfilling. Wu Kai has been busy with his business for decades, but feels that what he is doing now is more meaningful. However, Jiang Jiaquan once worked in Yuyang County for decades because of his cold heart. He watched helplessly as his senior brother was famous all over the world, but no one heard of him. Now that he finally had a platform to display his abilities, how could he not be full of passion.
"Put it here first. Tomorrow, I will finish it all." He looked at the two of them.
"It's okay. You've been on the road for more than ten days, and your body is really tough." Wu Kai nodded, "But Chang Shi, you have to hurry up. There are too many things going on in Jishi City, and I'm going to All the large-scale construction work in Jishi City has been completed this winter, and the rest is just repair work. When spring comes, spring plowing will be done, and there will not be enough manpower."
"I have a lot of big and small things on my side. A large amount of ordnance and supplies have to be transported back to Jishi City. As you know, Chang Shi, there are too many things, and many of them are needed by us. The merchants from all over the world can only eat a small part. , we can’t sell the rest. We don’t have iron ore, copper ore and other strategic resources now. We can’t give up these things and have to transport them back. And after the war, when the army needs to replenish these materials, how to distribute them is also a question. The problem is that we cannot allow conflicts between the armies to arise over these things.”
"Don't worry, I will take care of these things soon." Jiang Jiaquan glanced at the thick files. It seemed that the dream of sleeping all day and night would never come true.
"In this case, we will say goodbye." Wu Kai said with a smile: "I prepared some food for the evening. We invited the general over and had a good gathering. We haven't drank together for a long time."
"That's right. It's time to get together. The general and we haven't had a drink together in nearly half a year." Cao Tiancheng nodded repeatedly.
"Don't leave in a hurry!" Jiang Jiaquan dragged the chair over, "Tiancheng, I have something to tell you."
Cao Tiancheng was slightly surprised, but Wu Kai said, "Since you have something to do with Tiancheng, I'll leave first. I'm very busy."
"No, no, no, Mr. Wu, you have to stay too." Jiang Jiaquan said with a smile.
Wu Kai was slightly stunned, suddenly realizing that what Jiang Jiaquan was going to say next might not be that simple.
Cao Tiancheng was also keenly aware of this. The Jiang family had something to do with him, but they deliberately kept Wu Kai in order to find a witness. In the past few years, Cao Tiancheng was no longer the former Wu Xia Amen.
"The general and I came back from Fufeng. Although there was wind and snow blocking us, we took this opportunity to lay out a general outline for future development." Jiang Jiaquan pondered for a moment, "Here is our general strategic direction. There are also our current organizational structures, military construction, etc.”
"I don't quite understand these things. The general and you are enough." Cao Tiancheng said.
Jiang Jiaquan nodded and suddenly changed the topic, "The general said that Lian'er and Sun Xiao are not young anymore and it's time to get married. After completing the big thing at hand, they will get married."
"This is a good thing!" Wu Kai laughed loudly and turned to look at Cao Tiancheng, "Old Cao, there must be many people coming to congratulate your beloved on your wedding. I will tell my son that I will give you a good drink then. Get a 30% discount."
Cao Tiancheng stared at Jiang Jiaquan. He knew that if Jiang Jiaquan suddenly mentioned this matter, there must be something more to say later.
Sure enough, Jiang Jiaquan looked at Cao Tiancheng and said calmly: "Old Cao, you are an old man who follows the general, and you have won the general's trust. Therefore, there are some things that the general did not think of, or maybe he thought of them but did not care about them. But as a general, I Chang Shi has to think and speak, so what I say next are just my own thoughts and have nothing to do with the general, but I hope you can listen carefully."
After listening to Jiang Jiaquan's words, the smile on Wu Kai's face disappeared and he looked at Jiang Jiaquan inexplicably.
