    Mandalay, Shunhua Company Office.  Chen Zaixing was sitting at his desk, listening attentively to the report of one of his staff.  ¡°As of yesterday, a total of 8,000 hectares of land suitable for rubber plantations have been purchased in Mon State Province through land swaps, stock swaps and money redemptions, at a total cost of 250,000 pounds, and 7,000 hectares of land have been purchased.  In order to accommodate the approximately 62,000 relocated farmers, we need to provide corresponding cultivated land in the central region to resettle them-" "Stop!" Chen Zaixing raised his right hand and interrupted his men.  After making the report, he stood up, paced back and forth in the room a few times, and suddenly stopped and said: "There is no need to provide cultivated land in the central region to resettle these landless farmers. Whether it is the mines or the upcoming Yunnan-Myanmar Railway, a large amount of  Labor force. Clerk, write down what I say next carefully! " "Yes, sir!" The clerk standing aside picked up the quill and folder and got ready to record it.  ¡°In view of the current labor shortage in mining and railway construction projects, it is required to conduct detailed statistics on the number and situation of existing landless farmers and register them to prepare labor for the upcoming Yunnan-Myanmar Railway project! In order to prevent labor escape  The situation requires that the workers' bodies be marked and determined as soon as possible in the form of Kingdom law!" Chen Zaixing said this, looked at the clerk who was immersed in recording, and asked: "Okay?" "Okay, please.  Look, sir!" The secretary took a step forward, handed over the order that Chen Zaixing had just dictated on the wooden board and recorded it in beautiful cursive calligraphy, and took out the ink pad.  Chen Zaixing checked it carefully, took out a large ruby ??ring from the index finger of his right hand, dipped the front of it on the ink pad, and pressed it hard on the paper, leaving a tiger head on the white paper.  The logo is as red as blood.  "Send this order to the Privy Councilor immediately and ask him to issue it as a decree quickly!" "Yes, sir!" Chen Zaixing casually took the towel presented by the clerk and carefully wiped off the remaining red ink on the ring.  He carefully put it back on his finger, returned to his seat, and nodded to the staff member who had just reported: "Continue. Next thing!" "Yes, sir!" The staff member turned a page and continued.  Report: "Sir, the Hanking office sent a telegram. The imperial court issued a communiqu¨¦ three days ago to auction the Hanking ship repair yard and 22 ships, including eight paddle wheel cargo ships and fourteen steam sailing ships, with a displacement of  It ranges from three hundred and fifty tons to two thousand tons -" When the clerk said this, he only felt his hands loosen. When he looked up, he saw that the document had been snatched away by Chen Zaixing. He saw that the other person's hands were shaking slightly.  He was obviously extremely excited.  "Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Chen Zaixing suddenly asked sharply.  "This -" The clerk was stunned. Before he could turn his head, he saw Chen Zaixing waving his hands impatiently and shouting: "Get ready and go back to Hanking!" The palace.  "Husband, are you in such a hurry to go back to Dashun?" Luo Lin was leaning on the couch. At this time, her abdomen was already swollen. She was more than six months pregnant and leaned lazily on the cushion, looking at  Looking at her husband who was giving orders to several of his subordinates.  "Not bad!" Chen Zaixing gestured for his men to step back, walked to his wife, knelt down on one knee, reached out to touch his wife's little hand, and said softly: "There is an important matter in Hanjing. The imperial court will transfer a ship repair yard and a  Selling old boats is a good opportunity!" "Hey!" Luo Lin sighed: "Husband, I remember that you were not with me when Songqing was born. Although our family is not as wealthy as the Tian family, we still have thousands.  Why does it have to be so difficult for our country and its millions of people? Our daughter¡¯s family still wants her husband to be with her at this time.¡± After hearing what his wife said, Chen Zaixing hesitated.  Still replied in a low voice: "Alin, judging from the news coming back from Hanking these days, these are just the beginning. The cabinet has made a decision to sell many properties to private individuals in exchange for money to make up for the financial deficit and launch a new revolution.  This is the industrial development plan! This is why I went to Hanking. If I fall behind others, I will be in trouble!" "Then let Mr. Liu from Houde Bank go for you.  How about Mr. Kong?" Chen Zaixing did not answer, but his silence was an answer in itself. Luo Lin quickly understood the meaning and sighed: "I must not trust them!" "That's right!  It¡¯s not that I can¡¯t believe it!¡± Chen Zaixing smiled awkwardly: ¡°Business is all about business. When cooperation is profitable, everyone will naturally work together; but in this situation, the friendship in the past has been put aside.  . This matter is very important. IfIf others can't do it, I'd better give it a try!  " Luo Lin sighed. She had already heard the firm determination in her husband's gentle tone. She knew that no matter what she said, she could shake her husband's steely will. She turned her head in disappointment, turned her back to Chen Zaixing and said: "Resurrection  , I used to like that you were resolute and persistent, as long as you make up your mind, you can do anything, but now it seems that this may not all be a benefit.  " When Chen Zaixing saw this, he knew that his wife was already angry. He quickly got up and walked to the other side of the brocade couch. He looked at his wife's face and said softly: "Alin, don't worry too much.  As the saying goes, "Ten months of pregnancy", you should be more than three months away from giving birth. I will not stay for a long time during this round trip. I will definitely come back before you give birth to watch our child be born!  " "Seriously!  A trace of joy appeared on Luo Lin's face: "Don't tell me nonsense to make me happy. It's a long way between Hanking and Mandalay. If you are delayed a little bit, you may not be able to make it in time!"  " "Who is talking nonsense!  Chen Zaixing said with a smile: "I am going this time just to take care of the affairs of the court, and to form an alliance with the Liu family and the Kong family to divide the interests. The rest can be left to my subordinates!"  Besides, am I, Chen Zaixing, a man who talks nonsense?  "    "well!  Luo Lin saw her husband blowing his beard and staring, looking like he was about to curse and swear. He couldn't help laughing and held her husband's right hand that was about to be raised, and said with a smile: "My husband is an upright man. He promises a thousand pieces of gold, so naturally he will not lie to me."  A daughter¡¯s family!  "Having said this, Luo Lin took Chen Zaixing's right hand and placed it on his bulging belly, and said, "My child, did you hear it? Your father just swore that he would accompany you into this world!  " Chen Zaixing felt the slight vibration from his palm. Looking at his wife's beautiful face, his heart was full of tenderness. He stretched out his left hand to gently caress his wife's cheek and said softly: "Just relax and wait until I come back.  , the government affairs can be handed over to Diok, and I will hand over the Shunhua Company's guards to you.  After I leave, you can find a reason to release Maung Ji, and reward him with a thousand taels of silver to calm his shock. This man is quite famous among the moderate nobles and farmers!  " "I understand that we should take this opportunity to be kind to him, right?  " Luo Lin smiled, closed his eyes slightly, gently rubbed Chen Zaixing's rough palm with his cheek, and whispered: "Hey, it would be nice if you don't have to spend your mind on these power tricks. Find a place with beautiful scenery.  How wonderful it would be to ride horses and row boats every day in this place!  "    "yes!  "Chen Zaixing sighed. His heart was overwhelmed by this special warmth at this time, so much so that he forgot his usual ambitions, but just like the rocks on the shore, they always emerge from the ebbing water.  Likewise, Chen Zaixing returned to his usual nervousness and calmness twenty minutes later. He carefully carried his sleeping wife to the bed, covered her with a blanket, carefully walked out of the room, and whispered to the maid:  ¡°Invite Counselor Diok!  " Two hours later, Diok stood respectfully in front of Chen Zaixing, lowered his head, and carefully observed the man in front of him with the corner of his eye. He saw him quietly looking at the documents in front of him, using the feather in his hand from time to time.  Edit it with a pen. Finally, Chen Zaixing finished his work. He handed the document in his hand to the secretary beside him, looked at Diok and said with a smile: "Counselor, I'm sorry for keeping you waiting!  " "Don't dare!  Diok hurriedly bowed his body and said with a smile: "My lord, you are so busy for the sake of the kingdom. It is your duty to wait for the official!"  " "Please sit down!  "Chen Zaixing stood up and pointed to the chair beside him: "Master Counselor, I have to go to Hanjing next. Your Majesty, the eldest princess, is pregnant and can't work too much. During my absence, the internal affairs of the kingdom will fall on you.  !  " "Don't dare!  Diok stood up as soon as his butt touched the surface of the chair: "This is just the duty of a lower official, sir, please don't worry!"  "    "That's good!  "Chen Zaixing smiled slightly, and his face became serious: "There are some people in the kingdom who are making noises under the guise of the king's enthronement.  In fact, Luo Qin is the eldest princess's biological brother and a sibling from the same mother. Why don't we want him to ascend the throne?  But you have also seen the current situation in the kingdom. Internal and external pressures, wind and rain, and one accident can lead to overthrow. Putting him in power suddenly will harm her.  In a few years, when he gets older, handles some practical matters, and understands the hardships of the country, it will not be too late to ascend the throne. With tens of millions of Burmese people here and Emperor Dashun watching, how can we, a husband and wife, still dominate this position?  Can't you let it go?  " "The people and nobles are aware of the painstaking efforts of Your Excellency and the Princess!  Diok responded quickly. No matter what he was thinking at the moment, he still pretended to feel the same on the surface: "Even if there are a few villains with ulterior motives, they can't make any big waves."  "At this point, Diok paused for a moment and whispered: "But I think something is wrong"It is better to clear it than to block it!  "
