Chapter 398: Money Crisis

Time slipped away from the fingertips. At some point, two shaking figures in the festive bedroom stopped. Looking through the window, the figures of two people could no longer be seen.

It didn't take long, and a faint breathing sound came from the room.

When the last candle went out, the room was silent, with only a faint sound of breathing.

Spring night is short, and it is already bright in a flash.

The golden sunlight shone into the bedroom through the window, like gold covering the floor, shining brightly. Li Zhen showed his strong chest with his shirtlessness. Zhilan leaned against Li Zhen, with a trace of tears at the corner of his eyes, but a faint smile was on his face. Li Zhen slowly opened his eyes and looked at Zhilan who was sleeping peacefully beside him, a hint of pity flashed in his eyes.

This woman will accompany him until she is old.

The beautiful scene from last night appeared in Li Zhen's mind. With a bad smile, Zhilan quickly adapted to this process from the initial awkwardness to the end of passion. He looked at Zhilan next to him. At this time, Zhilan was wearing a bright red mandarin duck bellyband. Although it covered the softness on her chest, it still exposed her white skin.

Li Zhen gently kissed Zhilan on the forehead and was about to get up.

"Well,."

Zhilan moaned and opened her eyes.

Seeing the golden sunshine shining in, Zhilan rubbed her sore eyes, and showed an anxious expression on her face. She said hurriedly: "It's bright, I still have to offer tea to my sister. Get up immediately." As she said that, Zhilan was about to get up, but the two of them were exercising too intense last night, so that as soon as Zhilan sat up, a burst of pain immediately came from her lower body.

"Hiss, hiss."

Zhilan gasped for a few breaths and looked at Li Zhen with a angrily voice.

"My wife, it's wronged." Li Zhen exclaimed injustice: "You also participated when we were together last night. I'm very happy to ride on me. Now I'm blaming me for not being able to break the bridge."

Zhilan's face turned red and she was speechless.

In terms of skin, even ten Zhilans are not as good as Li Zhen, and she was defeated by Li Zhen in one sentence.

Zhilan looked at Li Zhen resentfully and said, "Husband, stop talking nonsense. Take the time to wash up and go to offer tea to my sister. I know my sister will not blame her, but we still need to pay attention to these small details."

Li Zhen helped Zhilan up and said, "Okay, listen to you."

He took the ordinary clothes Zhilan usually wore and took the initiative to wear them. In this process, he had to take advantage of the situation. The two of them were very affectionate and were very loving.

After dressing neatly, Li Zhencai shouted: "Come."

As the words came to an end, the door creaked and opened.

Zhilan's maid Dong'er walked in and saluted with a smile: "Son-in-law, early lady." Dong'er followed Zhilan from Beijing to Shanghai, and then from Shanghai to Guangzhou, and also witnessed the process of Zhilan and Li Zhen's marriage. Seeing Li Zhen and Zhilan's affection after marriage, she was sincerely happy.

Li Zhenxiao said, "Dong'er, go get water, Zhilan and I will wash up immediately."

"yes."

Dong'er turned around and left, and soon brought the toiletries for washing up. After Li Zhen and Zhilan finished washing up, they left the bedroom and headed towards the yard where Li Xiaotong lived. After entering the yard, they went directly to the hall to offer tea to Li Xiaotong.

After drinking the tea, Li Xiaotong showed a satisfied expression on her face.

She stared at Zhilan, and for a while, she said, "My brother and sister, you got married with me. You are the woman of the Li family. You want to have a big fat boy soon, do you understand?"

Li Zhen rolled his eyes and said, "My sister can really say anything."

Zhilan blushed with shame, lowered her head slightly, nodded slightly, but was a little shy. Although she successfully transformed into a young woman, she felt ashamed to speak up in the face of Li Xiaotong's problem. Li Zhen curled the corner of her mouth and said with a smile: "Sister, Zhilan and I will let it go. You should spread the branches and leaves for the old Wang family as soon as possible."

Li Xiaotong glared at Li Zhen, changed the topic, chatted with Zhilan again, excluding Li Zhen.

The two were having a lot of chatting, but Li Zhen felt uncomfortable and was very uncomfortable.

After half an hour, Zhilan stood up and said goodbye, left with Li Zhen. On the way back to the yard, Zhilan was full of energy and looked very happy.

Back at the yard, Zhilan excitedly recorded what she told Li Xiaotong.

Li Xiaotong and Zhilan talked almost all about children. Zhilan carefully recorded her in her heart because she understood that Li Zhen could not be the only woman, especially Gulina, Zhou Xiuying, and Alice sisters have already lived in the house. It will be a matter of time before marriage with Li Zhen, and having children is the foundation.

Zhilan heard this from her mother's mouth.

Li Zhen was doing nothing in the yard, sat down quietly and thought about the subsequent development. Logically speaking, when the flood in Guangzhou was solved, Li Zhen also became the admiral and served as the governor of Guangdong. Even Ye Mingchen was afraid of it, but Li Zhen was obviously not satisfied with this, because his goal was still far away and there must be further development.

Li Zhen's mind has been on military construction. Since the last time he equipped grenades, landmines and other weapons in Shanghai, he has never been optimized and improved.

Li Zhen thought about enhancing the combat effectiveness of the army, and his eyes were on the guns.

The development of firearms is the best shortcut to strengthen the strength of the army. Most of the current firearms use bullets made of paper and loaded bullets, not metal shell bullets commonly used in later generations. Li Zhen thought that it would not be difficult to transform the current firearms. As long as he told Dai Yuanhua the basics, he believed that Dai Yuanhua would definitely complete it.

Li Zhen had an idea and got up and walked towards the study.

He wants to write down his thoughts in his heart to improve the weapons of the army.

"Bang, bang,."

Li Zhen had just sat down, and before he could pick up his pen, a rapid knock on the door came from outside the study. Soon, Liu Taiping's voice sounded: "Sir, I have an urgent matter."

"Come in." Li Zhen said.

The door was pushed open, and Liu Taiping hurriedly walked in.

Li Zhen asked, "Sir, what's wrong?"

After Liu Taiping sat down, he looked sad and said seriously: "I just checked the expenses for getting married, and found that the expenses were not much, and I received a lot of gifts. However, I browsed the records of this month and found a serious problem. The money in the treasury has been insufficient to make ends meet. In addition, the construction of hospitals, arsenals and other buildings consumed countless money. If I continue, I am afraid that the treasury will be empty after this year."

Li Zhen frowned and said, "When we were in Shanghai, we collected Yang Fang and Yang Nengge's property and earned compensation from Bullon and others, and earned tens of millions of dollars. Have we used up all the money?"

Liu Taiping said lightly: "You only think about your income. No matter how much you use, Shanghai has opened an arsenal, built a hospital, and thousands of soldiers' weapons. They consume countless money every day. This is not a small amount. If you calculate other miscellaneous things, it will be even less money. I guess it can last for about four months and you must make money with open source."

Li Zhen took a deep breath and showed a look of embarrassment on his face.

To make money, make a lot of money.

However, it is obviously not feasible to the business of sisters Gulina and Alice. Besides, the arsenals are all making weapons to satisfy the army, and they do not make money by selling weapons.

What to do?

Li Zhenjing sat down and began to think slowly.

ps: The second update, this update took four hours to write, which is really slow, mainly because I think about the following text, and it's a bit of a clue.
Chapter completed!
